”Elder Sword thought that by recklessly using the Heavenly Divine Skill, he could take our lives, only to underestimate our strength!” Bei Lengshi glanced at Du Tianqi and said.

”Now that the old man has lost his combat power, it only takes one finger to kill him. Brother Bei, why don’t you send this old man on his final journey?” Du Tianqi also looked at Bei Lengshi and said.

Upon hearing Du Tianqi’s words, Bei Lengshi did not immediately take action but walked a few steps to the side, distancing himself slightly from Du Tianqi. He gripped the Shocking God Whip tightly, the Martial Arts True Power constantly flowing over it, ready to strike a mighty blow at any moment.

Du Tianqi did the same, seeing that Bei Lengshi did not immediately strike to kill One Sword Daoist, he also secretly prepared himself, tightly holding the Black King Sword, ready to strike with full force at any moment.

Originally, both Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi harbored wild ambitions, each wanting to rule the Ancient Martial World. If it wasn’t for One Sword Daoist provoking these two demons intentionally to buy time for the martial artists present to escape, Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi would have fought to the death long ago, perhaps already having inflicted mutual destruction or even perished together. Between these two, it was a fight to the death, always on the edge of striking out at each other.

At first, everyone was astonished by One Sword Daoist’s combat power and had to join forces against him. Now, as One Sword Daoist was dying, barely clinging to life, anyone could finish him off, but who would make the move? Once One Sword Daoist was truly gone, what remained would be the fierce battle between Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi. Once One Sword Daoist was utterly destroyed, these two demons were bound to settle their scores, for with them around, the Ancient Martial World would never be at peace, it was impossible for either to have their way.

Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi were neither fools nor novices; both were cunning, merciless, and ruthless. They both understood that as soon as One Sword Daoist was killed, a fierce battle between them would ensue. It was very likely that while one was attacking One Sword Daoist, the other might take the opportunity to attack, and that would be unlucky for the one making the move against One Sword Daoist. Moreover, with One Sword Daoist’s high cultivation and unpredictable combat power, even though he seemed gravely injured and dying, he might still have the strength to fight back, which would be quite dangerous for anyone approaching.

”Brother Tianqi, although we are competitors, for many years, the Five Poison Sect and the Songshan Sect have had no deep enmity. Elder Sword has only a breath left; whether you kill him or I do, his end will be the same, completely wiped from existence. Once he is gone, who in the entire Ancient Martial World could stand against us? Thus, we could cooperate for a long time; all the resources on Earth could be ours!” Bei Lengshi looked at Du Tianqi and thought.

”Cooperate? I would like to hear how you propose we cooperate...” Du Tianqi frowned and asked Bei Lengshi.

Bei Lengshi paused for a moment, then smiled and said, ”Earth was once a cultivation golden age but was altered a million years ago, becoming unsuitable for cultivation, with the planetary laws completely changed, and the Ancient Transmission Arrays destroyed, no one can leave Earth unless they reach the Emperor Realm. However, in our lifetimes, it’s impossible to reach the Emperor Realm on this cultivation-unsuitable planet, so we have to find a way to leave...”

”Find a way to leave? Do you have any good methods?” Du Tianqi asked, somewhat interested.

”As martial artists who have reached the Martial Saint Realm, we both understand that to avoid being restricted by the laws of this Martial Arts Great World and to not use the Transmission Array to travel between celestial bodies in the Immortal Domains, we must reach the Emperor Realm, which, as I already said, is impossible on this cultivation-unsuitable Earth. Thus, we only have the option of using a Transmission Array. Earth, being a former cultivation golden age with numerous strong individuals, surely has left unknown Divine Skills Immortal Scriptures, perhaps even Immortal Elixirs that can extend life. If we work together, all the treasures of the entire world could be ours,” Bei Lengshi eagerly said.

”That makes sense, but here on this cultivation-unsuitable Earth, the only way we could possibly leave is through a Transmission Array. The Ancient Transmission Array has been destroyed, broken into three large pieces. Can we find them?” Du Tianqi asked, puzzled.

”If we work together and lead the entire Earth, then all the martial artists in the world would serve us, and we could treat them like slaves, making them do everything for us—search for Divine Skills Immortal Scriptures, look for pieces of the Ancient Transmission Array, search for life-extending Immortal Elixirs, and even attack the enigmatic and unfathomable Sun Never Sets Mountain. If even that does not allow us to enhance our cultivation realms or leave Earth, then we two have no regrets!” Bei Lengshi nodded and said.

After some consideration, Du Tianqi indeed hadn’t thought as far and deeply as Bei Lengshi had. He hadn’t expected Bei Lengshi to have planned everything so thoroughly, even considering what to do afterward, including attacking the Sun Never Sets Mountain and using all the martial artists of the Ancient Martial World as fodder. It appeared he had been planning for many years.

”Alright, Brother Bei speaks sense. Since we’ve decided to cooperate, let’s join forces to kill Elder Sword; only then can we show the sincerity of our cooperation, right?” Du Tianqi, still cautious, said.

Bei Lengshi gripped the Shocking God Whip tightly, surprised that Du Tianqi was still so cunning. Originally, he had wanted to trick Du Tianqi into delivering the final blow to One Sword Daoist, during which he could deliver a fatal blow to Du Tianqi. After that, who in the entire Ancient Martial World would be his match? Any scheme he wanted to enact could easily be carried out.

”What’s wrong? Brother Bei, aren’t you willing to show the sincerity of your cooperation?” Du Tianqi, seeing Bei Lengshi’s hesitation, couldn’t help but sneer and ask.

”Brother Tianqi is too worried, well then, let us join forces to send Elder Sword on his way to the afterlife and then talk about cooperation,” Bei Lengshi said with a smile.

Slap! Du Tianqi struck out with a palm, aiming for One Sword Taoist’s head.

Bang! Bei Lengshi threw a punch, also targeting One Sword Taoist’s skull with lethal intent.

These two demons, these two ruthless old foxes, talked about cooperation on the surface, but actually guarded against each other in secret. Neither of them used their Martial Saint Treasures, keeping their battle power in reserve, fearful that the other might suddenly strike with lethal force.

One Sword Taoist was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, and although the Taiji Divine Sword in front of him still emitted traces of Divine Power, it hadn’t been activated. It appeared that One Sword Taoist was too severely injured to resist the Slaughter Aura any longer, and could only watch helplessly as the lethal moves of Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi struck at him.

Whoosh!

Just when Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi thought that One Sword Taoist was definitely doomed, suddenly a streak of golden light flashed. One Sword Taoist disappeared from his seated position, and at the same time, two loud noises sounded. Their palm wind and fist strength missed their mark, failing to kill One Sword Taoist.

”Hmm? Ants trying to save someone? They are really overestimating themselves!” Du Tianqi frowned, his powerful Divine Thought already sensing something. With a wave of his hand, he sealed off the entire Ancient Battlefield.

”Foolish thing, daring to save someone!” Bei Lengshi also scoffed disdainfully, unleashing two punches toward a nearby spot.

Boom!

Boom!

Suddenly, two figures appeared. One Sword Taoist was still sitting cross-legged, with the Taiji Divine Sword closely following him. However, in front of One Sword Taoist stood a person radiating golden light, coldly watching Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi with eyes emitting beams of golden light, filled with killing intent.

”Is it you?” Bei Lengshi looked at the person blocking in front of One Sword Taoist, unable to hide his surprise.

”A woman, even if she is a martial artist, daring to save someone, that’s truly unexpected!” Du Tianqi expressed his surprise as well.

The person standing in front of One Sword Taoist, facing Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi, was indeed Ye Tianchen. However, even now, Ye Tianchen still appeared as a woman. From earlier until now, he had been hiding within the Ancient Battlefield, observing everything. One Sword Taoist was ready to lay down his own life to kill these two great demons, risking complete destruction. Unfortunately, both of the demons’ Cultivation Battle Power were not weak, and they escaped. Now, seeing such a respectable senior like One Sword Taoist about to be murdered, how could Ye Tianchen stand idly by? Even though his cultivation was only at the Mid Martial Venerate and even though he was truly insignificant in front of Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi, he would still stand up. It was in his nature.

”A woman? Du Tianqi, look who I am...”

Ye Tianchen’s figure shifted several times, and he transformed back to his original appearance. In this Ancient Battlefield, there was no one else, and Ye Tianchen wasn’t afraid of revealing his true identity. Since he had already intervened, whether it was a transformation or his true form, Du Tianqi and Bei Lengshi wouldn’t let him go, so why not stand up boldly and fight, even if it was just one move? Ye Tianchen would put forth all his strength.

”You... Ye Tianchen... you... you killed my Five Poison Seven Sons, and even killed my son. I want your body shattered to pieces!”

Thud! Upon seeing Ye Tianchen’s true face, Du Tianqi exploded in rage immediately. He was always thinking about avenging his son and salvaging his own reputation. He had searched throughout the entire Ancient Martial World but hadn’t found Ye Tianchen. He had no place to vent this anger, and now that Ye Tianchen had unexpectedly appeared, how could Du Tianqi not explode? At that moment, a powerful surge of Martial Arts True Power burst from his body, sweeping towards Ye Tianchen like a tsunami, intending to absolutely crush Ye Tianchen into dust using his Martial Saint Realm strength!
