The whisk struck with the power of the Golden Light Charm.
The target was also simple: Qi Tian's dantian.
As long as the spiritual energy within Qi Tian's dantian was dispersed, Qi Tian's cultivation would be almost eighty percent crippled. This way, Lin Xiao would pose almost no threat.
This was all done out of respect for the Sect of Artifacts.
As the senior disciple of the Sect of Artifacts, if Qi Tian were to be killed here, the people of the Sect of Artifacts would go mad.
The Sect of Artifacts was a colossal power, a force that even the Celestial Masters Sect had to treat with caution.
However, the whisk did not shatter Qi Tian's dantian.
The whisk stopped just before Qi Tian's dantian, as if something there had blocked it.
"What is this..."
Daoist Master Chen's face darkened. Was Qi Tian attempting to resist?
"My apologies, esteemed Daoists." Qi Tian finally looked up and spoke, addressing the disciples of the Celestial Masters Sect. "Thank you for your concern, but this cultivation, I, Qi Tian, will naturally not allow you to cripple."
"I am no match for Lin Xiao, the Child of Destiny, but surely your Celestial Masters Sect doesn't believe that three novices who have just stepped into the Divine Realm, along with seven burdens who aren't even in the Divine Realm, can pose any threat to me?"
His voice was filled with arrogance. He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes fixed forward. At this moment, his gaze was not on Daoist Master Chen or the other disciples of the Celestial Masters Sect, but on Lin Xiao.
Only Lin Xiao was his opponent.
Even if the Holy Son of the Misty Immortal Palace appeared, he wouldn't dare to claim any advantage against Qi Tian.
"How is this possible... Our Demon Sealing Array..."
Daoist Master Chen was even more dumbfounded. Ye Chen was currently within their Demon Sealing Array! The array was functioning normally, and his fellow disciples were all well without any issues. Why was this happening?
Why could Qi Tian resist and even stop his whisk?
"As the Young Master of the Sect of Artifacts, I do possess a few valuable items." As Qi Tian spoke, a jade pendant floated up from his waist. This jade pendant emanated a faint spiritual energy fluctuation. Under this fluctuation, Qi Tian seemed completely unaffected by the Demon Sealing Array.
He extended his hand, and with the help of the jade pendant, the Demon Sealing Array stopped as he reached out. "This Demon Sealing Array... seals demons, and I am not a demon."
He extended his own hand.
He did not raise the hand crafted from the Uncorrupted Bone.
"The Celestial Masters Sect meddles too much. I have my pride. You wish to subdue me with a Golden Light Charm scroll from an Old Celestial Master? You seem to look down on me."
After speaking, his spiritual energy fluctuated violently, and the jade pendant flew above his head, vibrating slightly.
Immense pressure suddenly descended upon Daoist Master Chen and the others.
All the people from the Celestial Masters Sect were locked in place.
"What is this jade pendant..." Zhong Qi looked at the jade pendant, a look of envy on his face. That item was a treasured possession of his master, and he never expected to find it on their senior disciple.
"Isn't this Master's Barrier-Breaking Jade?" Liao Yunxi exclaimed upon seeing the jade pendant. "I remember asking Master for this jade pendant several times before, but he refused to give it to me. It turns out he already gave it to Senior Disciple."
Upon seeing the jade pendant, both of the Liao brothers calmed down.
