"Is this the 'Word and Law Follow'?" Manxi looked as if his eyes were opened to a new world.

He didn't hold a high position before, nor did he come from a major sect, so his knowledge was limited. Although he had heard of the Carefree Sect's divine skill 'Word and Law Follow', he had never seen it before. Besides, without hearing the 'word' through the mirror image, he couldn't make the connection at the moment.

Not only him, but there were also many others on the platform who didn't recognize it and only knew after hearing Mulan Jin's words.

Thus, someone exclaimed, "Another great talent who used Earth Immortal cultivation to practice Heavenly Immortal techniques!"

Manxi, coming to his senses, was also excited. This meant a surge in the strength of his team's lineup, which was an unexpected delight for him as well.

Before many surprised faces in front of each team's mirror image—Su Jikuan was already considered a naturally gifted talent—now, with another naturally gifted talent, Luo Que, and again another naturally gifted talent, Dongguo Shou, emerging.

When did naturally gifted talents become so worthless, with three appearing simultaneously?

Then there was even Li Hongjiu, whose cultivation was lower, but who annihilated thousands with one move, severely wounding West Ox Team's star, Feng Yin, and causing East Victory Team's star, Yan Zhili, to flee.

Just now, a person broke the Little Xuan Sect's divine skill 'Fan Sleeve Heaven', summoned a hundred fire dragons out of thin air to illuminate the night sky, forcefully stopping Nanshan's star, Luo Que, from pursuing him. Many quickly investigated to confirm who this person was; it wasn't difficult to find out among the few from Mingshan Sect that, after investigation, it was revealed to be An Wuzhi from the same sect.

The crowd in front of the mirror image couldn't believe their eyes, as the Battle of Great Pardon was only in the early stages, yet it seemed to have reached a climax as if it were the grand showdown.

In the Battle of Talents, if an average Heavenly Immortal cultivation joins, they might get beaten up.

Some felt their eyes had been opened, while others were filled with concern, especially the commanders of each team, as the situation had spiraled completely out of control, which wasn't good for them given the many uncertainties.

Su Jikuan was preparing to attack Dongguo Shou when he was startled by the scene before him, hearing it personally and witnessing it with his own eyes, immediately understanding what was happening, and exclaimed, "Word and Law Follow!"

Being from a sect ranked just after the Carefree Sect, they paid significant attention to it, naturally understanding what this divine skill meant.

Though surprised, there was no fear, because knowing that 'Word and Law Follow' once spoken, the less said, the greater the power.

Conversely, the more spoken, the lesser the power.

Truly, if the first line 'One breath transforms the universe' could manifest divine skills, then truly, speaking could create a universe, anything could come into being.

Of course, such cultivation of 'Word and Law Follow' exists only in legend. In the current era since the founding of Carefree Sect, the disciples in the sect have only practiced up to the second line 'North Nether Old Man fishes Great Whale', reportedly capable of summoning ancient Kun from the depths.

Now Dongguo Shou babbled a bunch, and as someone informed like Su Jikuan, naturally had no fear.

However, before he could act against Dongguo Shou, the latter, riding a big cat, vanished with both cat and person, engulfed by surrounding illusions, disappearing without a trace.

Indeed, what he faced now was a blend of visual and auditory illusions, unable to determine which surroundings were illusions and which were real entities summoned by 'Word and Law Follow'.

Fearing an ambush by Dongguo Shou, he hastily expanded his mana detection capabilities rapidly outward to survey defensively.

Just then, there was a roar overhead, he looked up quickly, his expression changing slightly, a vast Immortal Mountain had detached from the mountain range, descending like a sky-crashing blow upon him.

The power of this strike was no less than Li Hongjiu's upward-sea-staring blow.

Unaware of any hidden killers within the surrounding illusions, Su Jikuan didn't dodge, until the mountain loomed overhead, he called forth his fingers, triggering a series of earth-shattering booms.

'Star-shattering Finger' truly worthy of Divine Sect's divine skill, the smashing Immortal Mountain instantly cracked and collapsed, through which he broke.

Yet what seemed like an actual collapsed Immortal Mountain shattered upon its broken offensive, then dispersed into the intangible, seemingly fading back into the ethereal.

This scene before the mirror image awed many, marveling at both the destructive power of 'Star-shattering Finger' and the wonder of 'Word and Law Follow'.

The rushing group of Wu Jinliang looked as if seeing a ghost, it was clearly the dead of night, yet suddenly daylight shone, just crossing an icy world, now entering springtime blooming seas, except Mulan Qingqing, who upon hearing the chant had some insight, the others couldn't fathom what was happening.

Leading in the retreat, Wu Jinliang was cautious when crossing a sea island summit, flicking out something, which vanished without a sound, and he immediately shouted back, "No need to fear, it's an illusion, charge straight ahead."

Trailing behind, Tong Mingshan and An Wuzhi saw the illusion unfold, Luo Que halted pursuit, evidently cautious, clearly suspecting the illusion posed issues. Listening to Wu Jinliang's yelping, they intended to alert but were too late.

Mulan Qingqing also wanted to remind, but before she could speak, she heard Wu Jinliang's screams first.

Trailing behind, those ahead of them either halted urgently or arced into flight, while Wu Jinliang, realizing something was wrong, tried to halt but it was too late, though already inclined, he still struck his head against the Immortal Mountain.

The mountain collapsed a piece, followed by Wind Scale's scales shooting like torrential rain.

Wu Jinliang tumbled from the mountain like a dead pig.

Tong Mingshan and others hurriedly rushed to rescue.

Yet upon landing, Wu Jinliang quickly sat up, shook his head forcefully, and immediately checked his bundle behind him, then touched the ground urgently, yelping, "What nonsense, why is a mountain floating suddenly real?"

Tong Mingshan and others weren't concerned about the mountain but worried that the guy hit the mountain at high speed and was riddled with metal scales, assuming the Human Immortal Realm cultivation might be difficult.

Yet surprisingly the fellow was unaffected, even his clothes weren't torn, although the bundle he carried bore several holes.

"Are you okay?" Tong Mingshan asked with concern, knowing that this person's relationship with the Master was different, and it wouldn't be good if anything happened to this person.

Lao Changtai and Chu Jingtang subconsciously exchanged glances, relieved that Boss Wu had escaped in front of them without taking them along, otherwise, they would have crashed into the mountain together.

Wu Jinliang stood up, "It's alright, alright. After great difficulty, there will surely be future blessings!"

He stamped his foot, still startled, "This mountain is real."

Mulan Qingqing, who flashed down, said, "It's the Carefree Sect's divine skill 'Word and Law Follow'."

Wu Jinliang's eyes lit up, "Then they are on our side?"

The rumbling sounds of battle drowned out their words.

A figure rushed forward at high speed, floating in mid-air near the mountain. It was Li Hongjiu who was pursuing them. Although there was still a considerable distance, he brought a strong wind that made it hard for anyone to stand steady.

Han Bao, carrying the Big Melon Hammer, flashed down beside Mulan Qingqing, clearly setting his protection target.

Luo Que didn't pursue because she had become the target of the attack. As she wanted to chase and kill Wu Jinliang's group from the Heavenly Court Team, Dongguo Shou, as the leading figure of the Heavenly Court Team, naturally stepped in to stop her.

An Immortal Mountain came crashing down towards Luo Que, with such a powerful suppressive force that she could only dodge at full speed.

Just barely escaping from beneath the mountain, she half-bared her arm, struck out with a two-finger strike, touched her forehead, and urgently chanted an incantation with her eyes closed: "Xuanmen True Skill, Divine Eyes Like Lightning, Demons and Spirits, Open!"

As her eyes suddenly opened, they emitted a dazzling white light. The illusions in her vision instantly disappeared, and she could see the mountains as mountains, water as water, with no distracting illusions of oceans, islands, or blossoming spring distracting her mind, only the actual existing Immortal Mountains.

Before the mirror image, seeing the white light in her eyes, Mulan Jin's face changed dramatically, muttering with tight lips, "She actually mastered the 'Profound Light Divine Eye', this will be trouble for Yan Zhili."

His reaction was strong because he knew that the divine skill of the Little Xuan Sect happened to effectively restrain the divine skills of Su Yuan Sect; the ambush tactics of Su Yuan Sect's 'Soldier Resolution Technique' could not escape the probing of Little Xuan Sect's divine eyes.

However, no matter what she could see with her divine eyes, Dongguo Shou, intending to suppress Luo Que, didn't give her a chance to breathe. Another Immortal Mountain crashed down towards her, so powerful that she could only dodge and flee hastily.

The problem was each mountain's suppressive range was extensive. Coupled with the Immortal Mountains continuously materializing from thin air above, Luo Que, just emerging from underneath a crashing mountain, would immediately face another descending one, leaving her no chance to counterattack. Her divine eyes could see, but it didn't increase her escape speed. She could only dodge swiftly from one mountain to another.

She had to flee; withstanding a strike would be unbearable, with consequences no less severe than Feng Yin taking that sky-piercing azure wave.

Her repeated narrow escapes made the Nanshan Team Commander Ming Chaofeng exceedingly anxious.

While struggling for her life, she inadvertently glimpsed Li Hongjiu in the distance and suddenly shouted in rage, "Li Hongjiu, which team are you with?"

Almost exclaiming, why don't you come and help?

The voice reached Li Hongjiu's ears, putting him in a difficult position. Luo Que pursued Wu Jinliang's group, while Dongguo Shou was rescuing Wu Jinliang's group.

However, he didn't hesitate much because he couldn't stand by and watch Luo Que, the mainstay of the Nanshan Team, die at Dongguo Shou's hands. He immediately swept his sleeve, a powerful whirlwind forming beneath his feet, splitting into eight streams, heading towards Luo Que. As they moved, the wind pillars grew stronger and larger, with an imposing presence connecting heaven and earth.

The massive wind pillars moved straightforwardly, swiftly positioning themselves under the Immortal Mountains. While they couldn't stop the colossal Immortal Mountains from descending, they did create significant resistance during the fall, slowing their descent.

With the slowing effect, it was like alleviating an impending crisis. As Luo Que dodged and flashed, it became much easier for her, as she only had to navigate through the wind pillars to avoid life-threatening danger.

The Nanshan Commander Ming Chaofeng before the mirror image breathed a significant sigh of relief, transmitting to Pu Gong, "After all, they are our fellow sect brothers. In crucial moments, they didn't sit idly by and knew how to prioritize."

Riding a big cat, standing behind the Immortal Mountain's misty eye-blocking skill, Dongguo Shou looked towards Li Hongjiu's direction and chuckled, "Indeed interesting, but still not enough."

Li Hongjiu knew this wasn't enough. It only allowed Luo Que to dodge back and forth between the wind pillars like a groundhog. Once she left their coverage, the movement speed of the wind pillars couldn't keep up, and she would again be helplessly crushed under relentlessly falling Immortal Mountains.

The distant rumbling of battle continued, clearly indicating Su Jikuan was still dealing with the suppression of the Immortal Mountains.

Li Hongjiu glanced back at Wu Jinliang, who just crashed into the mountain, suddenly realizing that although Su Jikuan could forcefully break through the suppression, he found it hard to escape. It was evident he was also hindered by the illusions of the 'Word and Law Follow' technique.

If Su Jikuan weren't trapped by illusions, he would undoubtedly pose a formidable threat to Dongguo Shou.

With this thought, he immediately lifted a palm, where phantom waves formed, quickly gathering into an enlarging water drop. Within the water drop, a brilliant white light began to form.

Suddenly, he clasped his fingers, holding the water drop and white light in his palm, and radiating strong white light from the gaps between his fingers.

"Only light can break the darkness..." he murmured, then flipped his fist into a palm, striking towards the sky, unleashing a beam of white light.

The world was momentarily shrouded in blinding whiteness, causing those before the Five Command Centers' mirror images to close their eyes and turn their heads.

The reaction from those present can be imagined.

As the strong light faded, Su Jikuan, who had shielded his eyes, squinted through a gap and quickly opened his eyes to survey the surroundings. He found himself back beneath the starry night sky, as all the ocean illusions had disappeared.

Revitalized, he shattered the Immortal Mountain crashing down again, darting out like a phantom. His gaze sweeping swiftly, he immediately locked onto Dongguo Shou riding the big cat, launching a rapid assault, not giving him a chance to continue messing around.
