"Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, train!"
In an instant, the eight experts simultaneously channeled their magical power into the array flags, activating the grand array in the order of Qian, Kun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Gen, Xun, and Dui.
As soon as the great formation was activated, the eight divine lights merged into one, forming a powerful and domineering chaotic light.
The moment the light appeared, it began to dart about erratically. Everything in its path turned to ashes. Many people, even those still asleep, were reduced to dust along with their homes.

Chapter 70: Guan Yu's Ultimate Moves: Azure Dragon and Green Dragon
One peak Celestial Immortal, eight early-stage Celestial Immortals, eight peak Earth Immortals, and eight peak Loose Immortals—a total of seventy-three experts—each strike, enhanced by the formation, was comparable to the power of a quasi-fifth-tier expert.
This near-fifth-order power, multiplied by eight, and amplified by the powerful weapon of Bagua, becomes the true fifth-order power before us, capable of destroying and killing everything!
Most importantly, the Blissful Immortal Child Li Jingxu and his companions are native inhabitants of the Shu Mountain world, so the Heavenly Dao of the Shu Mountain world can accept the use of fifth-order power by them.
There was no dazzling light, no deafening sound, and not even incredible speed, yet this seemingly careless and random movement had already caused Lin Yang and his companions considerable trouble. In a mere moment, six Chosen Ones had already perished!
(This is a mission world, so you won't truly die after you die. However, your overall fortune, constitution, and aptitude will drop by a level. Therefore, even if it's not a real death, the loss is significant!)
More importantly, black vortexes appeared where the six Chosen Ones' bodies lay immediately after their deaths.
As soon as these vortexes appeared, they automatically emitted a large amount of Daoist energy. The chosen ones present, whether martial artists, scholars, or cultivators, all felt a surge of inspiration and a rapid enlightenment upon seeing the vortexes.
Lin Yang knew that this was not an illusion. These black vortexes belonged only to the Heavenly Dao of this world and were composed of the pure origin of the Heavenly Dao.
After all, the death of each Chosen One is a great tonic for the Heavenly Dao! That's why the Heavenly Dao is in such a hurry to manifest itself and personally absorb the essence.
At the same time, golden flowers of merit appeared, quickly falling upon those who had set up the formation. Seeing this visible merit, Li Jingxu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that slaying these extraterrestrial demons was indeed very beneficial!
"Azure Dragon Emerges from the Water!"
As he spoke, Guan Yu's face turned even redder. At the same time, accompanied by a dragon's roar, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand transformed into a living green dragon.
This azure dragon has the body of a long snake, the head of a qilin, the tail of a carp, long whiskers, antlers like a deer, five claws, and a very majestic appearance, after all, it is a divine beast.
"What a magnificent Azure Dragon! The Azure Dragon is one of the Four Symbols. Moreover, according to the Five Elements theory, the east is associated with the color azure, hence the Azure Dragon is the god of the east, also known as the Green Dragon. Yun Chang's understanding of the Azure Dragon is truly profound. It seems he will definitely be able to subdue that chaotic divine light!" Cao Cao said confidently.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yang subconsciously shook his head, guessing that success was unlikely. While it was true that this Azure Dragon was incredibly powerful, capable of unleashing near-fifth-tier strength, the problem was that they were the Chosen Ones, outsiders and invaders to this world!
Sure enough, the once incredibly handsome Azure Dragon's dashing appearance lasted less than three seconds. Before it could even launch an attack, it immediately became listless, looking tired and like it had been masturbating too much.
"Let's see the treasure!"
As he spoke, a Bagua shield appeared automatically, transforming into eight enormous trigrams that manifested the scenery of heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, plants and insects, fish and all things in the universe.
"Excellent, what a wonderful magic weapon! It can already create a small world. This is definitely a genuine mid-grade fifth-tier spiritual treasure. This time it should be able to hold them off, right?" Cao Cao affirmed once again.
However, it still couldn't stop it!
“No, whether it’s a magic weapon or a unique skill, once its power reaches the fifth rank, it will be sealed at the peak of the fourth rank in an instant. This is the limitation of the world and the limitation of the Heavenly Dao. Unless this world is destroyed, this point cannot be changed!” Lin Yang shook his head and said.
Then, they silently made a decision: it was time to unleash their backup plan. Otherwise, the Chosen Ones might truly be wiped out this time!
This feeling is incredibly frustrating. It's not that we lack strength or can't win, but rather that we are restricted by the laws of nature. The power limit of all our ultimate moves is restricted to the peak of the fourth tier, and the same applies to all our magical treasures.
More importantly, the natives are unrestricted, which makes the game unplayable! At this point, Lin Yang finally understood why, with the strength of the Immortal Qin, it took them so long to plan an invasion of a small Han Dynasty!
It's important to understand that the Ancestral Dragon of the Immortal Qin Dynasty was a true eighth-tier Great Luo expert. Yet even so, when invading the Han Dynasty, didn't he have to slowly calculate and employ various schemes and tricks to succeed?
"Gentlemen, does anyone have any other ideas? Whatever the method, as long as it can help us get out of here, we will reward you handsomely afterwards," Liu Hao suddenly asked loudly.
"Alas, Princess, we were wrong this time. We lost the initiative by accident, and one wrong step led to another. Now we've fallen into Xu Fu's trap. Anyway, there's nothing I can do," Zhang Lu said helplessly.
"I don't have any either, but before I die, I must kill my way through!" Lu Bu said with murderous intent.
As for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, they were both racking their brains, hoping to create a miracle. Perhaps, a solution would come? If they didn't try, they'd never find one!
Seeing everyone's anxious expressions, Lin Yang suddenly spoke up: "Everyone, help me buy some time. Perhaps my method will work. Since the Chosen Ones won't work, then let's become members of this world. Anyway, in any case, this world will merge with the Great Han in a few hundred years."
Stay here and become a member of Mount Shu. When the Dharma ends, you will automatically return to the main world.
More importantly, once they stayed here, they could bypass the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao, and thus launch a counterattack! With this thought, everyone's eyes lit up instantly.
"I've tried this method, but the Reincarnation Land says that we are in a special state and can only decide whether to stay in this world after the mission is completed, so it's useless now," Liu Bei said helplessly.
"What? No way!"
"I'll give it a try!"
"Give it a try!"
After a long silence, everyone fell silent. The Land of Reincarnation disagreed, because the timing was wrong, and besides, no one had obtained the right to reside in this world!
"Fellow Daoists, why don't you wait a moment? Perhaps things will take a turn for the better. Moreover, it would be best to rest well and prepare to make your move!" Lin Yang suddenly said with murderous intent.
This time, we've really been tormented by that old bastard Xu Fu. When we become powerful in the future, we'll definitely make him pay the price!

Chapter 71: I shall be the Lord of the Sun, the Master of the Great Sun. My light shall illuminate the ten directions of the world!
In ancient times, during the primordial era, the ancestors of humankind had the custom of worshipping the heavens. Initially, perhaps it was out of fear, perhaps out of dread, or perhaps to pray for the heavens' help.
Over time, this custom has been passed down, and people have truly come to regard the heavens as their father and themselves as the children of the heavens.
Sometimes sacrifices are held because of a bountiful agricultural harvest, and sometimes because of a great achievement.
For example, when an emperor is having a great time governing the country, he might subconsciously go to Mount Tai to perform the Fengshan ceremony, which is quite similar to a child showing off to his parents after achieving something.
