Chapter 248 I warned you
Kong Xuan was horrified, but had no time to care about anything else.
Then, the second Dinghai Pearl followed, and this time, it aimed at Kong Xuan's ears. With a crisp buzzing sound, Kong Xuan's hearing was also deprived, and all the sounds around him seemed to be isolated, leaving only his rapid breathing and heartbeat echoing in his ears.
Having lost his vision and hearing, Kong Xuan's soul was torn into two pieces, and his fighting power was greatly reduced, but he still did not give up resistance.
However, Zhao Gongming's attack did not stop. The third and fourth Dinghai Pearls followed one after another, hitting the tip of Kong Xuan's nose and tongue respectively, depriving him of his sense of smell and taste.
Kong Xuan only felt that the taste and breath of all things in the world were drifting away from him, leaving only endless emptiness and despair.
Finally, when the fifth Dinghai Pearl slowly approached, Kong Xuan was no longer able to react.
The bead gently touched his skin, and in an instant, his sense of touch completely disappeared. At this moment, Kong Xuan seemed to have lost all his senses and became an empty shell. His soul was mostly destroyed by the continuous blows, and he was almost falling into an eternal sleep.
“Kong Xuan, even though you have the five-colored divine light protecting you, you cannot escape the calamity of the Dinghai Pearl.” Zhao Gongming stood on the clouds, looking at Kong Xuan who had lost his five senses and was dying below. His tone contained both the pride of a winner and a barely perceptible regret.
Although Kong Xuan had lost his five senses, his spiritual power was still as sharp as before, like an invisible net that covered the entire small world.
Every move in this small world cannot escape his divine sense.
Although his soul was severely damaged, his will became even stronger at this critical moment. He knew that as long as he was still alive, he still had a chance to fight back.
While losing all his senses, Kong Xuan's mind became unusually clear. He felt every energy fluctuation and every tiny change around him.
Although his five-colored divine light was suppressed by the power of the Dinghai Pearl, he did not give up. He still mobilized the last bit of strength in his body, trying to brush the beads away.
The five-colored divine light gathered on his body surface and transformed into tiny rays of light. They circled around Kong Xuan, competing with the power of the Dinghai Pearl.
Although he was unable to repel these magical weapons, Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light could at least protect his soul from further harm.
Zhao Gongming stood high in the sky, looking at Kong Xuan's figure below who was still resisting tenaciously, and couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.
He knew that Kong Xuan's strength was by no means ordinary. If he had not used the Dinghai Pearl today, he might not have been able to win.
"Kong Xuan, you are powerless to save the situation. Why don't you just stop?" Zhao Gongming's voice penetrated the dark clouds and entered Kong Xuan's mind. "I don't want to kill you. As long as you are willing to surrender, I can guarantee your safety."
Kong Xuan's spiritual sense sensed Zhao Gongming's words, but his heart was filled with indifference.
He would rather die than surrender and would never bow to the enemy.
At this critical moment of life and death, Kong Xuan felt an unprecedented clarity and determination in his heart. His five-colored divine light burst out again, although it could only barely protect him.
Seeing that Kong Xuan still refused to surrender, Zhao Gongming frowned slightly, but the magic power in his hands did not stop at all. The power of the twenty-four Dinghai beads became even more ferocious, as if they wanted to completely wipe out Kong Xuan's soul.
At this critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared at the edge of the Small Thousand Worlds. His movements were as fast as lightning, and he was beside Kong Xuan in almost an instant.
The man was none other than Yang Ling, holding an ancient gourd in his hand. Endless starlight gushed out of the gourd, transforming into a dazzling galaxy that stretched between Kong Xuan and Dinghai Pearl.
The galaxy was rippling, as if countless stars were swimming in it. This force barely blocked the attack of the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls, buying Kong Xuan a glimmer of hope.
When Zhao Gongming saw this, his face suddenly darkened.
His voice roared like thunder throughout the entire Small Thousand Worlds: "Yang Ling, what do you mean? Are you going to break the rules and interfere in the fight between Kong Xuan and I?"
Although Kong Xuan had lost his five senses, his mind was still sharp and he sensed Yang Ling's arrival.
Although he was grateful in his heart, he was more reluctant.
His brows were furrowed, and he used his divine mind to send a message to Yang Ling: "Why are you here, Daoist friend? This is a battle between me and Zhao Gongming, you shouldn't interfere."
When Yang Ling heard Kong Xuan's words, a complicated look appeared on his face, but he was not angry. Instead, he nodded, slowly stepped aside, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I won't interfere in your fight again.
However, both of you are extremely powerful. If either of you dies here, it will be a huge loss. Therefore, I hope you can stop at this point and stop killing after the winner is determined."
At this point, he looked at Zhao Gongming and said in a deep voice: "Although the ten Heavenly Monarchs of your sect were defeated by me, I did not harm their lives. I just detained them in prison temporarily. When the siege of Chaoge is lifted, I will release them."
Hearing this, Zhao Gongming's expression eased a little, and he said calmly: "I am not a bloodthirsty person! As long as Kong Xuan is willing to admit defeat and surrender, what's the harm in me sparing his life?"
Kong Xuan heard this and said arrogantly: "Fellow Daoist, please fight me with all your strength, otherwise you will definitely lose!"
When Zhao Gongming heard Kong Xuan's provocation, his face suddenly darkened, and anger leaped in his eyes. His voice was so cold that it seemed to freeze the air, and it spread throughout the entire world word by word: "Kong Xuan, you are so arrogant! Now that your five-colored divine light has been fixed by my Dinghai Pearl, your five senses have been lost, and most of your soul has been destroyed, what else can you use to fight me?"
Kong Xuan's mind remained calm in the face of Zhao Gongming's rage. Although his voice could not come out through his lips, his mind could convey his will: "Zhao Gongming, your Dinghai Pearl is indeed powerful. I thought that this clone would be enough to defeat you, but I didn't expect it to be wrong."
Zhao Gongming's expression instantly became solemn when he heard this. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Could it be that the Kong Xuan in front of him was just a clone?
Does he have a backup plan?
At this moment, a clear cry pierced the sky, and a noble and handsome divine bird, the peacock, flew into the small world.
Its feathers were dazzling, and each feather seemed to contain stars. Its appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The divine bird peacock hovered over Kong Xuan, its eyes revealing deep melancholy and determination. Then, in the astonished eyes of everyone, the divine bird peacock turned into a brilliant light and merged with Kong Xuan.
A powerful wave of power burst out from Kong Xuan's body. His soul seemed to be reborn at this moment. Those parts that had been erased quickly recovered and became even stronger than before.
An ominous premonition arose in Zhao Gongming's heart. He understood that Kong Xuan's true strength was finally about to be revealed.
He no longer hesitated and waved his hands. The power of the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls once again gathered into a raging wave, sweeping towards Kong Xuan.
But this time, Kong Xuan did not choose to resist head-on. His body swayed slightly in the air, like a wisp of smoke, and easily avoided the attack of Dinghaizhu.
His five-colored divine light bloomed again, and this time, it was even more brilliant and dazzling than before, as if the real five-colored divine light had descended into the world.
Seeing this, Zhao Gongming knew that Kong Xuan had recovered his strength, and his expression became serious.
He held twenty-four Dinghai Pearls in his hands, each of which contained the tremendous power to suppress the sea. They shone brightly, like stars falling into the mortal world, emitting a heart-pounding pressure.
Yang Ling turned his head to look at the other side, only to see Kong Xuan carrying five-colored divine light, which was his unique supreme magical power, which could sweep away everything and was indestructible. It was like the purest five-colored silk in the world, dancing lightly in the wind, but it contained the power to destroy the world.
With a deafening roar, Zhao Gongming suddenly rose up like a dragon in the raging sea. Twenty-four Dinghai Pearls surrounded him, moving with his will. Each one turned into a stream of light, carrying the power to tear apart space, and blasted towards Kong Xuan.
Wherever the Dinghai Pearl passed, the space seemed to be solidified, and even the passage of time became slow, demonstrating its supreme power to suppress the sea.
Facing this overwhelming attack, Kong Xuan looked indifferent and did not make any move. Only the five-colored divine light behind him suddenly lit up, like five rainbows cutting through the sky, or like five divine bridges connecting heaven and earth.
The five-colored divine light instantly turned into five streaks, and flew towards the Dinghai Pearl. The two collided violently in the air, erupting with a deafening roar and dazzling light.
The five-colored divine light and the Dinghai Pearl were seen intertwining with each other, sometimes entangled, sometimes separated. Every collision stirred up layers of air waves, tearing the surrounding space into pieces.
Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light seemed to have spirituality and was extremely flexible. No matter how the Dinghai Pearl changed, it could be accurately captured and brushed off.
Although Zhao Gongming's Dinghaizhu was extremely powerful, it seemed powerless in front of the five-colored divine light and it was difficult to exert its full strength.
As time went by, the fight between the two became more intense. The entire sky was shrouded in their magical powers. The sun and the moon lost their light, and the stars lost their luster.
However, just when everyone thought that this fight would go on endlessly, Kong Xuan suddenly shouted, and the five-colored divine light suddenly surged and turned into a huge light net, covering all of Zhao Gongming's Dinghaizhu.
Zhao Gongming was shocked when he saw this.
However, he was a master of the Jiejiao after all, and although he was shocked in his heart, he did not show the slightest panic on his face.
He closed his eyes and concentrated. The aura around him suddenly rose. The twenty-four Dinghai Pearls circled in the large net formed by the five-colored divine light, as if they were resonating with the world.
With a roar that shook the world, Zhao Gongming suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. The twenty-four Dinghai Pearls instantly burst into dazzling light, and they intertwined and merged in the air, turning into a vast and boundless scene of the universe.
Each Dinghai Pearl turned into a world, and the twenty-four worlds were interconnected, together constructing a huge and complex cosmic system, as if to suppress the entire Hongmeng within it.
These twenty-four heavens are not only vast in scale, but each world also contains unique laws and powers. They are intertwined and check and balance each other, forming an indestructible defense network.
Although the five-colored divine light could sweep away everything, it seemed powerless when facing the twenty-four gods. Every impact was resolved by the complex cosmic system and could not penetrate its defense.
Kong Xuan frowned slightly when he saw this, he knew very well that Zhao Gongming was extremely powerful and these twenty-four heavens were his most powerful skills.
However, how could Kong Xuan be an easy person to deal with?
His body flashed and he instantly transformed into a giant peacock, with wings spread out, covering the sky and the sun, and his whole body emitting colorful light, which was the power of his true peacock body.
As the peacock's true form appeared, Kong Xuan's momentum instantly soared. He looked up to the sky and let out a long cry, a clear cry that pierced through the clouds and split the rocks, reaching straight up into the sky, as if it could awaken the most ancient power between heaven and earth.
As he cried, the five-colored divine light seemed to be summoned by something. Its power suddenly increased and transformed into five thick pillars of light. It rushed straight into the sky and collided even more fiercely with the twenty-four gods in the heavens.
The five-colored divine light and the twenty-four gods intertwined and collided in the air. Every impact caused turmoil in heaven and earth, as if to tear the entire space apart.
Kong Xuan and Zhao Gongming each displayed their magical powers and gave it their all. Their figures appeared and disappeared in the light and air waves, as if two gods were engaging in a shocking battle.
Although Yang Ling was in the Small Thousand Worlds, he stayed far away and did not dare to get close for fear of being affected.
Whether it is the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls or the five-colored divine light, they are the most powerful treasures in the world.
Dinghaizhu was born in the beginning of chaos. It was a mysterious treasure bred in the chaos before the creation of heaven and earth. It was later obtained by Taoist Hongjun, who gave it to Master Tongtian when distributing treasures on the Dividing Treasure Rock. Master Tongtian then gave Dinghaizhu to his beloved disciple Zhao Gongming.
Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light evolved from his five natal feathers.
These five feathers correspond to the colors green, yellow, red, black and white, representing the five elements of wood, earth, fire, water and gold.
The five-colored divine light can sweep away everything and break everything, it is Kong Xuan's most powerful weapon. In terms of treasure, the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls are undoubtedly better, but Kong Xuan is a master who has achieved enlightenment in ancient times, with profound magic power, far beyond Zhao Gongming's comparison.
So the two of them each urged the two treasures to bombard each other. It was like a tit-for-tat confrontation, neither was willing to give in at all, and neither of them could gain an absolute advantage.
As time went by, the battle between Kong Xuan and Zhao Gongming had reached a fever pitch, with their figures intertwined and shining brightly. The entire small world was torn apart by their magical powers, and the earth, water, fire and wind were in turmoil.
Kong Xuan transformed into a peacock with wings as brilliant as the sunset glow. Every flap of his wings brought about gusts of wind. The five-colored divine light was like five lively ribbons, flying through the air, sweeping away everything.
His eyes sparkled with wisdom, and every attack was extremely precise, targeting Zhao Gongming's vital points.
However, Zhao Gongming is no ordinary person. Twenty-four Dinghai Pearls are floating around him, evolving into twenty-four heavens. Each world contains unique laws and powers, together forming an indestructible line of defense.
As the two men fought, the five-colored divine light and the twenty-four heavens continued to collide, and every confrontation erupted with dazzling light and deafening roar.
The lights intertwined, as gorgeous as a rainbow, but concealed a deadly murderous intent; the roar resounded through the sky, as if even the heaven and earth were shaking.
In this battle, both of them used all their skills. Whether it was Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light or Zhao Gongming's twenty-four heavens, they all showed their unparalleled power and mystery.
As time went by, the fight between the two became more intense and difficult to resolve.
Although Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light could sweep away everything, it still seemed a bit strenuous when facing Zhao Gongming's twenty-four gods.
Those twenty-four worlds seemed to be independent universes, each operating according to unique laws, making it difficult for the five-colored divine light to penetrate their defenses.
Although Zhao Gongming had the upper hand with the help of the Twenty-Four Heavenly Gods, Kong Xuan's peacock true body was extremely flexible, constantly changing his body shape and attack methods, making it difficult for him to completely suppress Kong Xuan.
The two fought fiercely in the air for hundreds of rounds, and it was difficult to tell who was the winner. Their figures appeared and disappeared in the light and air waves, and every confrontation was thrilling.
Just when this fight seemed endless, Kong Xuan suddenly shouted, and the five-colored divine light suddenly surged and turned into a huge light net, covering the entire sky.
Zhao Gongming was horrified when he saw this. He knew very well that Kong Xuan had already used all his strength. If he could not respond in time, he would be unable to withstand this fatal blow.
So, he activated the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls without hesitation, and soon set up an exquisite formation.
Each of these twenty-four Dinghai Pearls contains the chaotic power when the world was first created, which can turn the world upside down and suppress all things.
Following a low shout from Zhao Gongming, twenty-four Dinghai Pearls rose into the air, surrounding him and emitting dazzling light.
He quickly formed seals with his hands, muttered something, and summoned a formation diagram, which was then integrated with the chaotic power of the Dinghai Pearl.
In an instant, the entire battlefield seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force.
I saw twenty-four Dinghai beads slowly rotating in the air, gradually forming a huge light array.
This light array spread out from Zhao Gongming as the center, enveloping Kong Xuan and the space around him.
Kong Xuan's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he immediately realized that he was trapped in an extremely powerful formation.
Kong Xuan was not willing to be outdone. He quickly activated the five-colored divine light, trying to break through the constraints of the formation.
However, no matter how hard he tried, the five-colored divine light would be bounced back by a powerful force when it touched the edge of the light array, and was unable to penetrate the solid barrier formed by the Dinghai Pearl.
Zhao Gongming stood outside the light array with a smug smile on his face.
He knew the power of this formation very well. As long as Kong Xuan was trapped in it, it would be difficult for him to escape. He took the opportunity to adjust his breathing and prepare to launch a more fierce attack to completely defeat Kong Xuan.
However, Kong Xuan was no ordinary person.
He quickly calmed down and began to observe the structure and operation of this formation.
He discovered that although this formation seemed impeccable, it actually had some subtle flaws. As long as he could find these flaws and use them skillfully, he would be able to break out of the formation.
However, Kong Xuan was not good at formations. Facing the large formation before him, even if he realized there were flaws, it would be impossible for him to break the formation in a short period of time.
Kong Xuan's eyes flashed with enlightenment. He knew that continuing would only be a waste of effort, so he took a deep breath and said with a hint of helplessness in his voice: "Zhao Gongming, you win, I admit defeat."
Zhao Gongming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he burst into laughter. He did not expect Kong Xuan to admit defeat so quickly, so he mocked him, "You should have done this earlier. It's not too late to admit defeat now.
Hurry up and order people to open the city gates and surrender!"
Kong Xuan smiled slightly, but he was not panicked. He said slowly: "Although I admit defeat, I am no longer a marshal. If you want to open the city gate and surrender, I am afraid you still have to defeat our fellow Taoist Yang Ling."
After hearing this, Zhao Gongming's face darkened and he felt a little furious.
He didn't expect Kong Xuan to kick the ball to Yang Ling at this time, which caught him off guard.
However, he quickly adjusted his mood and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, no matter who it is, they can't break my Dinghai Pearl."
After saying that, Zhao Gongming's eyes flashed like lightning as he swept towards Yang Ling who was watching the battle from a distance, with a sharp light in his eyes.
Seeing this, Yang Ling couldn't help but nodded slightly. He knew that he would have to face this battle sooner or later. Now that Kong Xuan had admitted defeat, the next battle would be left to him.
Yang Ling stepped forward and bowed with a calm demeanor.
His voice was calm and firm, echoing in every corner of the battlefield: "Brother Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao and I are old acquaintances. I really don't want to be your enemy today. Please take back the Dinghai Pearl to avoid both sides being hurt."
Zhao Gongming heard this and sneered. His eyes flashed with disdain. His voice was full of sarcasm: "Yang Ling, if you are afraid, you can admit defeat now. Why do you have to do useless work here and say something that makes people feel ridiculous?"
Yang Ling shook his head, his eyes were like torches, looking directly at Zhao Gongming, his voice was still calm, but with a hint of unquestionable firmness: "I'm not afraid, I just think there is no need to damage the treasure.
Your Dinghaizhu is indeed powerful, but it can't do anything to me. I have already warned you, believe it or not."
Zhao Gongming's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect Yang Ling to be so confident that he dared to challenge his Dinghaizhu so bluntly.
He wanted to see what kind of ability this young man had that allowed him to face his Dinghaizhu so calmly.
The sky and the earth were covered with dark clouds and thunder roared.
Zhao Gongming was surrounded by a faint fairy air, standing quietly in the void, with a rolling sea of clouds under his feet and a layer of faint golden light covering his entire body, like an invincible god of war.
Facing the powerful enemy Yang Ling, Zhao Gongming did not hesitate at all. He just waved his right hand lightly, and a bright light shone in his palm. A dazzling gem slowly emerged - that was the legendary Dinghai Pearl, a treasure containing endless ocean power and the mystery of space.
Following Zhao Gongming's low shout, the Dinghai Pearl suddenly glowed brightly, transforming into an extremely dazzling blue light that cut through the sky and rushed towards Yang Ling with a devastating momentum.
Wherever the blue light passed, the space seemed to be torn apart, leaving behind shocking cracks. The air was filled with rich spiritual energy fluctuations, which made people's hearts palpitate.
Yang Ling's face was solemn when he saw this. He knew that this Dinghai Pearl was very important and he dared not be careless. He quickly mobilized the true energy in his body, and his body turned into a stream of light, dodging flexibly in the void. At the same time, he formed seals with his hands, preparing to use defensive magic to resist this fatal blow.
However, the speed of the Dinghai Pearl was beyond imagination. Even a master like Yang Ling could not completely avoid its edge.
The blue light approached instantly and slammed into the defensive barrier he had set up. Suddenly, the barrier shone brightly, as if it had endured a tremendous weight, and let out bursts of wailing, before finally shattering with a deafening roar.
The aftermath spread in all directions, and the surrounding space seemed to tremble. Dust and gravel were swept up by the powerful impact force, forming a chaos.
"It's really amazing!"
Yang Ling exclaimed in admiration, knowing that he could not stop the Dinghai Pearl.
However, he was not panicked at all. He raised his hand and took out the treasure money that he had prepared long ago.
He slowly raised his right hand, and in his palm, an ancient and mysterious gold coin slowly emerged - that was the Luobao Gold Coin, an exquisite spiritual treasure that could collect all the treasures in the world.
The surface of this gold coin is covered with traces of time, but it still retains its warm luster, as if it contains endless power and wisdom.
Yang Ling took a deep breath and waved his hands lightly. The Luobao Money suddenly turned into a golden stream of light, and shuttled between the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls at lightning speed.
Whenever the golden light touched a Dinghai Pearl, the pearl that was originally shining with blue light would suddenly pause, and then slowly fly towards the Luobao Money as if pulled by an invisible force.
This scene is like the brightest stars in the night sky being plucked one by one and gathering into an irresistible torrent.
As time went by, the twenty-four Dinghai Pearls were taken away one by one by Luobao Money, and the originally brilliant and dazzling sky gradually returned to calm.
When the last Dinghai Pearl was taken into the pocket, the golden light suddenly became brighter and turned into a dazzling beam of light that shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire world with golden light.
Zhao Gongming's face changed suddenly when he saw this. He never thought that the Dinghai Pearl, which he was so proud of, could be taken away so easily by Yang Ling's Luobao Money.
He watched helplessly as his twenty-four Dinghai Pearls were taken away one by one by Yang Ling. His face instantly turned ashen, his eyes widened, and there seemed to be flames dancing in his pupils. It was an expression of extreme shock and anger.
He clenched his hands into fists, his knuckles turned white and veins bulged from the force, as if he wanted to tear the empty space apart. His lips were tightly pursed, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly with anger, but he couldn't utter a word.
The sea of clouds around him, which was already rolling, was now even more violent. There were lightning and thunder in the dark clouds, as if even the heaven and earth were shaking with his anger.
"Yang Ling!"
"Give me back my baby!"
