Eternal Life: I Can Control My Essence Qi-Chapter 169 - 150: Twists and Turns, Zhang Yao’s Display of Power

"Good!"

Zhang Yao agreed in one breath, then separated from Lord Haihe's escape light and penetrated the battlefield from the flank.

"Lord Haihe is here!"

Upon Lord Haihe's appearance, the Du Bu Alliance side immediately looked solemn, with many Foundation Establishment cultivators slowing their attacks and moving closer to each other.

No one dared to underestimate such a long-renowned powerhouse.

In contrast, the Haihe Association side was greatly boosted in spirit, with Master Cang'er maneuvering his flying sword freely and loudly proclaiming:

"You brats, it's time to taste your grandpa's prowess!"

In the blink of an eye, Lord Haihe's escape light entered the fray, raising his hand to unleash a sudden flash of thunder, the deafening roar shaking heaven and earth.

The thick silver-white thunderbolt tore through layers of water curtains, striking the body of the Soul Cultivator elder.

Yet, surprisingly, after the thunder light dispersed, the figure of that Soul Cultivator elder vanished like a bubble, disappearing without a trace.

"Hmm? Illusionary Light Dao Skill, paired with the Method of Confusing Five Senses?"

With rich magical battle experience, Lord Haihe instantly judged the truth and couldn't help but sneer:

"A petty trick!"

His thoughts moved slightly, and his extremely strong divine thought swept through the surrounding ruins of the Water Mansion like mercury pouring down.

Soul Cultivators specialize in cultivating the divine soul. Their bodies and magical power are relatively fragile, but their divine souls and divine thoughts are extremely strong, far surpassing those of the same stage. This is their strongest point and greatest reliance.

But against someone like Lord Haihe, whose own divine soul is extremely formidable, he does not fear the various methods of Soul Cultivators.

"Not good! Old Man Zeng is in danger!"

The bearded man's expression changed slightly, his figure flickered as he was about to go to support the Soul Cultivator, teaming up against the renowned Lord Haihe.

But at this moment, a sidelong escape light rushed out, blocking his way, it was Zhang Yao who had hurriedly entered the battle to support Fairy Yuan Meng.

"Hmm?"

The bearded man raised an eyebrow, noticing the unfamiliar figure and appearance of the escape light's master, he sneered:

"... Yet another fool who doesn't know their limits!"

He didn't recognize any of the Haihe Association's Foundation Establishment cultivators, mostly due to their inexperienced Qingxu, whose only achievement was capturing Feng Dujuan in Suiyu Mountain by leveraging home advantage.

This person reportedly advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage less than ten years ago, solidly placing him at the bottom of the Foundation Establishment stage, yet he dared to obstruct him?

"Get lost!"

He roared, a faint white light emanating from his body, like a massive stone cannonball, crashing directly, plowing a vacuum path in the water.

He is a true Body Refining Cultivator who not only has a sturdy treasure body but also paired Daoist ultimate skills, his strength far surpassing typical middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Just with this simple charge, he could crush a small hill into powder. A mere early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator daring to block him would only be pulverized.

But this time, he clearly miscalculated.

"Take this!"

Zhang Yao's expression stayed calm, his magical power surged, and he threw the golden hammer with a flick.

The 'Taixu Heaven-Smashing Hammer' expanded into a dozen feet in size in an instant, crashing down like a golden meteor.

Faced with such a grandiose strike, the bearded man didn't dodge nor seemed to care, even raising his head, staring with wide eyes, intending to confront the spiritual artifact's might with his flesh.

"Boom!"

A deep, thunderous boom sounded as the golden hammer and the bearded man collided.

"Boom rumble..."

At the moment of impact, numerous surging undercurrents erupted, layer upon layer of waves shattered, the surrounding river seeming to boil.

"Damn!"

A curse mixed with a painful cry, the bearded man was blasted backward, tumbling underwater seven or eight times, crashing heavily into the ruins.

The Taixu Heaven-Smashing Hammer proudly hummed, circled once in midair, then rapidly shrank back to its usual hammer size, returning to Zhang Yao's hand.

Their exchange seemed lengthy, yet in truth lasted only a fleeting moment.

"Huff..."

Fairy Yuan Meng, after Zhang Yao intercepted the bearded man, finally took a few breaths, and thanked him with her divine thought:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qingxu!"

"It's nothing."

Zhang Yao replied with divine thought, speaking:

"The Soul Cultivator has the Association Leader to deal with him, this Barbarian Bull is mine."

"Fairy, you join forces with Master Cang Er, Li Chen, Duanyu, and others to first eliminate the other members of the Du Bu Alliance."

"I understand."

Fairy Yuan Meng nodded, instantly turning into a blue rainbow, joining another battle group.

Meanwhile, Peng Yue Xian also finally broke free from the Divine Soul Dao Skill, caught his breath, and hurriedly thanked Lord Haihe.

"Leave this one to me, you cooperate with Yuan Meng to first clear out the remaining Foundation Establishment masters of the Du Bu Alliance."

Lord Haihe conveyed with divine thought, emphasizing:

"While Du Bu Daoist has yet to show himself, weaken the enemy's strength as much as possible."

"Understood."

Peng Yue Xian spoke no more, also turning to flee, leaving this small battlefield to Lord Haihe.

"Bang!"

Dust exploded all around, shattered jade stones, glass, crystals scattered everywhere.

The bearded man, with his fierce face, rubbed his head swearing as he walked out, his eyes showing a trace of ferocity:

"That was quite strong!"

"I didn't expect that the Haihe Association had hidden a master like you!"

"You're too kind."

Zhang Yao's expression was calm, his tone unhurried:

"It's my first meeting with a genuine Body Cultivator."

"Du Bu Daoist is clearly crazed, with your remarkable abilities, why follow him down a dark path?"

"Hey, are you trying to turn me against him?"
