Zhang Xiaozu would not help the first-generation guardians destroy Yan Taibai's body. The reason was simple. Before he did anything, Yan Taibai would slap him to death.
However, even if Yan Taibai couldn't kill him, he wouldn't stop Yan Taibai from resurrecting.
Because the only chance he could see at the moment was for Yan Taibai to fight with these first-generation guardians, and then he and the cultivators who had not suffered yet would take the opportunity to escape.
This is what Venerable White Tiger told him before leaving: "Stay away from the Scorched Earth Basin and wait for an opportunity to escape after a fight breaks out."
Zhang Xiaozu suddenly discovered that Venerable White Tiger seemed to have told him nothing, but seemed to have told him everything.
Driven by the first-generation guardians, the army on the ground attacked fiercely.
Six hundred feet... five hundred feet... four hundred... three hundred...
The area of the Scorched Earth Basin shrank smaller and smaller, with only a distance of more than two hundred feet remaining, but all the ground troops had turned into withered bones and the entire army had been wiped out.
One by one, Yan Taibai's physical body has been reshaped to the position of his neck, leaving only a skull head.
Zhang Xiaozu thought at first that it was fortunate that these first-generation guardians were not united. If they had not concentrated their forces in the same direction and charged together, they would have broken out a way long ago, but later he realized that he had taken it for granted.
This scorched earth basin is not dead, but is like a pool of water. If there is too much in one side, it will flow to fill it up.
So the effect of rushing from one direction is actually the same as from ten or eight directions.
The soul-reviving fruit was right in front of them, and the first-generation guardians all showed excited and greedy eyes.
They waved their hands, and the powerful stars behind them immediately took action. They all displayed their weapons and used their magical powers to rush towards the Scorched Earth Basin.
The power of the dazzling stars flooded the Scorched Earth Basin in an instant.
Zhang Xiaozu looked horrified.
He saw the powerful stars falling from the sky like dumplings. Their bodies had turned into withered bones before they even hit the ground, and then fell to pieces on the ground.
The power of the stars cannot be insulted, it is like a joke at this moment.
The power of the stars was so strong that Yan Taibai's remaining skull was reshaped almost instantly.
This is a very handsome face, but his baby-like tender skin makes him less masculine and mature than a man, and more feminine.
His eyes were still closed, as if he was one step away from resurrection.
Zhang Xiaozu looked at the Soul-Reviving Fruit and remembered what the first-generation guardian said before: "When he reshapes his body and then eats the Soul-Reviving Fruit, he will be truly reborn!"
So Zhang Xiaozu guessed that Yan Taibai would pick the soul-returning fruit and eat it soon.
Zheng!
There was a sword cry in the starry sky.
Although it was crisp and loud, it was immediately drowned out by the noisy roar around it.
Su Jin in red heard the sound of the sword.
To be more precise, she felt a familiar sword intent, and then noticed the sound of the sword.
"Tai'a sword!"
She exclaimed and suddenly turned to look in the direction of the sword cry. She saw a long sword flying around a woman she was controlling. Then the sword energy exploded and actually cut off the thread of blood that controlled her.
"Little bitch, it turns out you have been reincarnated!" Su Jin in red stared at the woman who had escaped from her control and regained consciousness, and squeezed out a gloomy word through her teeth.
As soon as Qi Yoyo woke up, she heard such a strange and confusing sentence, and looked at it blankly following the sound.
When she saw it, she was so shocked that she stood on the spot.
She saw that the sky all around was full of powerful stars with the power of spinning stars, all rushing in the same direction. She also saw a phoenix-shaped star burning with torrential flames.
The huge skeleton of the phoenix was flying in the air, and it felt like it was in a dream.
Su Jin in red stared at Qi Yoyo, raised the corners of his mouth happily, and shouted: "Haha, you little bitch, if you fall into my hands, you deserve to die! I will make your soul fly away, and then burn your body to ashes , even the soul-returning fruit can’t save you! Haha..."
With a ferocious face, she grabbed Qi Yoyo, and the phoenix flame turned into a huge flaming claw and grabbed Qi Yoyo head on.
Phoenix flames can burn everything.
But just when the giant flaming claw was about to catch Qi Yoyo, a big hand suddenly grabbed hold of Qi Yoyo from the Scorched Earth Basin and snatched Qi Yoyo away.
"ah--"
The red-clothed Su Jin looked startled at first, and then screamed at the Scorched Earth Basin like crazy.
Chirp——!
The phoenix skeleton soared into the sky, and Su Jin, who lost his mind in red, urged the phoenix skeleton to rush towards the center of the Scorched Earth Basin.
She fluttered her palms and made one after another flaming handprints containing infinite power, all heading towards Qi Yoyo.
Apparently he was determined to kill Qi Yoyo.
The other eight first-generation guardians originally wanted to wait before taking action, but when they saw Su Jin in red suddenly taking action, they immediately followed suit, fearing that if they were too late, someone would snatch the soul-reviving fruit.
There was only a hundred feet of distance left in the red earth basin. When these nine people took action, they pushed all the stars and powers they controlled forward to clear the way for them.
Bang bang bang!
The stars fell down like rain, and the scorched earth basin shrank rapidly in an instant.
The distance between a hundred feet was only ten feet in the blink of an eye, and all the stars and power were destroyed.
"Haha..." The first-generation guardians couldn't help but laugh happily with excitement.
Whoosh!
Qinglong flicked his tail and swept towards Qilin and Kurosawa beside him.
call--!
The Suzaku flapped its wings and flames burned to both sides.
Pixiu flicked its tail and rolled towards Xuanwu.
Huge waves surged from Xuanwu's body, smashing into the bones of the divine beasts on both sides of his body.
The Soaring Snake rode the huge wave caused by Xuanwu and rushed toward the Soul-Returning Fruit.
In an instant, nine first-generation inheritors fought together because there was only one soul-returning fruit, and each of them wanted it.
Seeing that Su Jin in red was about to hit Qi Yoyo with his attack, and seeing that the man in green and others were about to grab the Soul Resurrection Fruit from the air, Yan Taibai's eyes finally opened.
He did not rely on the power of the soul-returning fruit, but on absorbing the power of the holy beast to open his eyes.
The black and white eyes were exceptionally bright and clear, and two cold rays shot out from the deep black pupils.
"Be bold!"
Yan Taibai opened his mouth and shouted softly. The sound was not loud, but it shook his heart and resounded throughout the sky.
This soft drink signified his return from rebirth.
boom!
A terrifying force surged out of his new body, and then surged in all directions like a wave.
As soon as the flaming handprint of Su Jin in red was touched by this force, it exploded into sparks and scattered in the wind.
The man in green and others grabbed the energy palm of the soul-returning fruit from a distance. As soon as it was touched by this energy, it exploded into a stream of energy.
The terrifying power continued to increase, rushing towards the nine first-generation guardians, sending them flying more than a thousand feet together with the bones of the divine beasts beneath their feet.
The faces of the nine first-generation inheritors changed dramatically, and their eyes were filled with deep fear.
Yan Taibai raised his hands and grabbed the void in front of him. He saw that the sky in the sky seemed to be torn down by him, and turned into a light shield with a diameter of thousands of feet to cover himself, blocking out the nine first-generation guardians. .
"Yan Taibai, how dare you act so arrogantly in front of us!" The man in green eyes widened angrily, glaring at Yan Taibai and shouting angrily.
Yan Taibai was too lazy to raise his eyelids to look at him.
hold head high--!
The Green Dragon Skeleton roared, opened its mouth and spit out a breath of dragon breath towards the light shield, but it only caused a circle of ripples on the light shield.
boom!
Xuanwu set off a huge wave of black water and hit the light mask, with the same result.
Phoenix, Suzaku, Qilin, etc. all attacked the light shield, but no one broke it.
Yan Taibai casually grabbed the light shield barrier under the cloth. Its hardness made the nine first-generation guardians frown.
Yan Taibai's power seemed to surprise them.
"Yo yo!"
Zhang Xiaozu exclaimed, flew forward, and caught Qi Yoyo who fell from the sky.
"Pawn!"
When Qi Yoyo saw Zhang Xiaopou, he also exclaimed in surprise.
The two hugged each other in surprise and shock, but before they could say a word, they felt a piercing gaze fall on them.
Zhang Xiaozu put his arms around Qi Yoyo and blocked Qi Yoyo behind him. He raised his head to meet the gaze and asked, "Senior, please bring us two here. What are your orders?"
His action made Qi Yoyo feel warm ripples in his heart.
Ever since she and Zhang Xiaozu parted ways in Liujiacun, she had put on her battle armor and joined the battlefield, acting as a general in front of the formation, leading the charge, showing no signs of cowardice, and being stronger than men.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaozu suddenly spread his arms to protect him behind him. He felt that a layer of armor was removed from his body, and his heart suddenly no longer felt so hard, and warmth flowed in his heart.
Yan Taibai glanced at Zhang Xiaozu, but his eyes quickly shifted to Qi Yoyo and asked: "Little girl, where did you get this Tai'a sword?"
The Tai'a Sword transformed into a huge one in his hand, and he placed it across his lap. His fingers gently rubbed the sword, with a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
Qi Yoyo walked out from behind Zhang Xiaopou, saluted respectfully, and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "This sword was given to the younger generation by an old senior."
"Then where did your old man get it?" Yan Taibai asked.
"I heard that it seemed to be obtained in an ancient ruins." Qi Yoyo answered truthfully.
She didn't dare to lie because she felt that Yan Taibai's eyes could penetrate her heart, and he would find out if she told a lie.
"Ancient ruins?!" Yan Taibai's eyes suddenly turned cold and he said, "This sword is the sword worn by my beloved wife. Are you going to disturb her tomb?!"
Qi Yoyo was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly replied: "Young men, you will never dare."
"Hmph!" Yan Taibai snorted coldly, but did not continue to pursue her. He turned his eyes to Zhang Xiaopou and asked, "Where did you get your yin-yang fish pupils?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaozu knew that Yan Taibai was asking about ghost pupils, and immediately replied: "This junior got it by accident in an underground river."
"Let me see if you're lying." Yan Taibai suddenly stretched out his right index finger and pointed it at the center of Zhang Xiaozu's eyebrows.
Zhang Xiaozu felt an extremely overbearing power rush into his consciousness, and then penetrated into his soul.
Yan Taibai's fingers touched Zhang Xiaozu's eyebrows and then he nodded and said, "That's it."
Zhang Xiaopou's face turned red and his expression was angry, but he dared not speak out when he was angry.
He felt that his soul was searched and checked by Yan Taibai's power, which meant that Yan Taibai read all his memories and knew all his secrets.
"Then..." Yan Taibai's eyes darkened, he glanced at Zhang Xiaozu and Qi Yoyo, and said in a cold voice: "You two can die."
"senior--"
Zhang Xiaozu wanted to say something, but the wind from his palm blocked his words.
