Chapter 640: Chapter 508: The Great Void Battle

Wang Yang suddenly said this, and everyone present was stunned.

Although they knew Wang Yang had fused all fifty types of the Great Dao and might be able to withstand the attacks of a Two-Step Saint, even exchanging a couple of moves with them,

blocking a Two-Step Saint was definitely no simple matter.

"Wang Yang, this matter is not trivial. A Two-Step Saint is absolutely not as simple as you think!"

The Leader of the Tongtian Sect spoke out to remind him.

"Wang Yang, I know you are eager to Achieve Saintliness, to help us during the great calamity of the Three Realms."

"But a Two-Step Saint has started to gradually make rules, and the gap between them and a One-Step Saint is not just a little bit."

"A Two-Step Saint can easily block three One-Step Saints, and there’s even a chance to slay three One-Step Saints!"

"But the gap between a One-Step Saint and a Two-Step Saint is still too great!"

Saint Taiqing was the only Two-Step Saint among those present, having clashed with three One-Step Saints of the Demon Clan, so he had a direct understanding of the combat power of a Two-Step Saint.

Back in that battle, Saint Taiqing had only just stepped into the rank of a Two-Step Saint and wasn’t able to skillfully utilize his strength yet, or else he would not have let even one of those One-Step Saints escape.

"I know the gap between a One-Step Saint and a Two-Step Saint must be huge, but my fifty types of the Origin of the Great Dao have fused with each other, shielded even more by the Creation Dao!"

"I think as long as he cannot kill me in one strike, I still have confidence in stopping him!"

Wang Yang also understood everyone had his best interests at heart, but the current situation no longer allowed them to be choosy.

In the Three Realms, besides Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, the remaining six Saints, with the exception of Saint Taiqing who finally took that step ten years ago, the rest had been comprehending for many years but ultimately remained at the threshold of a One-Step Saint.

To expect them to face off against a Two-Step Saint was pure daydreaming.

On the other hand, Wang Yang, who had newly attained the Saint Fruit Position, having fused fifty types of the Great Dao, had gained new insights into the Power of the Great Dao during his achievement of saintliness—considerably narrowing the gap between One-Step Saints and Two-Step Saints.

Leaving other things aside, Wang Yang felt he could definitely defeat any One-Step Saint in the Three Realms.

Just based on this, there was no one more suitable to block a Two-Step Saint in the Three Realms than him.

"Sigh, since you are determined, let Wang Yang have a try."

"However, you must remember, if you find you can’t withstand him, you must flee!"

"As you now possess the World Embryo, at the very least you can take a portion of the beings from the Three Realms into the World Embryo, escape from the Three Realms, and hide in the Void."

"If that happens, even if the Demon Clan really does bring ruin to the Three Realms, you would still be leaving behind a glimmer of hope for the Three Realms."

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, despite feeling it was somewhat inappropriate in his heart, saw the situation in the Three Realms like this, and even though it wasn’t appropriate, he couldn’t come up with a better plan.

There was no way around it; the Demon Clan’s Saints were indeed more numerous than those of the Three Realms.

Even if Wang Yang and Saint Taiqing each blocked a Two-Step Saint, in terms of One-Step Saints, the numbers would still favor the Demon Clan.

Now the Three Realms had a full count of eight Saints, but the Demon Clan had brought nine.

Even Hongjun himself didn’t believe the Demon Clan only had these nine Saints.

However, with the situation of the Three Realms hanging by a thread, they could only take it one step at a time.

Meanwhile, in the Void, Yang Mei watched the Barrier of the Three Realms, which had been bombarded for half a month, growing increasingly anxious.

His emergence had already led away a considerable portion of the Demon Clan’s powerhouses. Lingering here for too long meant the Demon Clan’s own cities were at risk.

What was crucial was that during this half-month, the Demon Clan had not had a moment’s rest, yet the Three Realms Barrier seemed as intact as before, without a single crack, offering no hope of breaking through.

This was also a significant blow to the Quasi-Saints of the Demon Clan; at the very least, their morale was no longer as high as when they had first arrived.

"I refuse to believe that the Three Realms have such strong defenses!"

Yang Mei gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he refused to believe that the Three Realms could continue to exist only within the Barrier.

If the Three Realms really had such strong defensive means, then the Demon Clan would never have managed to enter the Three Realms in the first place.

"Boom, keep bombarding! Even if they truly can keep this up, I want to shake the Three Realms up!"

This was the heart knot of Daoist Yang Mei; if he could not destroy the Three Realms, he would be stuck at this point for life.

For other Three-Step Sages, becoming a Three-Step Sage was already satisfying enough.

But for Yang Mei, this wasn’t enough. He was still looking to climb to even higher realms, even to unify the Void, allowing the presence of the Demon Clan to fill the whole Void, making the Demon Clan rule everything.

For the Demon Clan and others, another day went by without accomplishment.

However, for the people of the Three Realms, they were now gathered at the Purple Cloud Palace, looking at the Barrier in the distance, which would be their final battlefield.

They didn’t even dare to hope that they could win this war. Even if it was just a delay, there was no support behind them to hope that they could drive the Demon Clan out.

Still, they came here without any hesitation, only wishing to firmly hold their respective opponents in the Void, not allowing them a single step into the Three Realms.

"Let’s go!"

Daoist Ancestor Hongjun didn’t say much; with a light command, he then led the way towards the Barrier.

The others followed behind him, and for most of them, this was their first time seeing the juncture between the Three Realms and the outside.
