Although he's mastered this inheritance, it's not complete, just a portion. Yet, even so, with this incomplete top-tier divine power, he's truly stood among the supreme overlords.

It is precisely because of his mastery of the Summon Wind and Rain Technique that he believes he can restrain the Fiery Flame Array, giving him the confidence to act.

Seeing these arrays being continuously broken, urgency grips him; if he doesn't act now, there truly won't be another chance.

"One of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Techniques of the Taoist School's Great Divine Power – the Summon Wind and Rain Technique? Do you wish to restrain me with this technique? It's unfortunate; in your hands, it's a pearl cast before swine, unable to exert much power. Endless flames, obliterate the world." Lihuo Taoist activated the great formation's power, instantly transforming into ninety-nine Fiery Flame God General images, trapping Duan Hanfeng within, weaving his hands, flashes of light breaking through the skies.

The fiery waves surged, driven by Lihuo Taoist, rolling towards Fire God City, intending to burn it down.

A vicious aura emanated from Lihuo Taoist, like a madman, this terrifying flame divine power unleashing horror in his hands.

"Four Symbols Locking Heaven!" Four Symbols True Man stepped forward, activating the Four Symbols Locking Heaven Ring. The phantom images of Qinglong, White Tiger, Zhuque, Xuanwu roared, surrounded by the power of Earth Water Wind Fire, easily suppressing the boundless flames.

"Watch me break the array!" Duan Hanfeng fell, Four Symbols True Man activated the Four Symbols Locking Heaven Ring, descended into the Fiery Flame Array, blocking the torrents of flames.

Phantom images of Qinglong, White Tiger, Zhuque, Xuanwu surrounded him, easily extinguishing all flames, yet he dared not be careless.

Facing Lihuo Taoist, who was now going mad, he dared not be careless, for the other's frenzy might drag him to the grave without a care.

A Black Tortoise Seal fell from the sky, striking Lihuo Taoist amidst the flames, causing him to stumble.

The fire waves churned, engulfing Duan Hanfeng's body, countless Primordial Qi infused, intensifying it further, waves capable of obliterating a supreme strong, Lihuo Taoist brandished a long sword, attacked Four Symbols True Man.

The fierce battle erupted instantly, standing within the Four Symbols Locking Heaven Ring, Four Symbols True Man brandished a Vermilion Bird Divine Spear, glowing with flame light, blocking the opponent's relentless attacks.

Every attack by Lihuo Taoist was extremely fierce, a death-or-glory tactic, causing Four Symbols True Man's brow to furrow deeply; even if he managed to hit back, he would suffer severe injury, mutual destruction.

Two hours passed, the two fought increasingly frantically.

"Four Symbols Locking Heaven, Seal Heaven and Suppress Earth!" Four Symbols True Man finally could no longer hold back, weaving his hands, activating the treasure Four Symbols Locking Heaven Ring, phantom images of the Four Symbols Divine Beasts revolved, suppressing heaven and earth.

"Endless flames, obliterate heaven and earth." Lihuo Taoist was equally filled with murderous intent, fearlessly aggressive, terrifyingly attacking without defense, wounds covering his body.

Qinglong spiraled, Zhuque cried, White Tiger roared, Xuanwu turned; under Four Symbols True Man's activation, the Four Symbols Locking Heaven Ring released infinite power, sealing the flames' strength.

The Vermilion Bird Divine Spear manifested phantom wings of Zhuque, pierced through the air, stabbing through Fiery Flame True Man's chest.

"Fiery Flame Burning Heaven, Perish Together." Lihuo Taoist showed a fierce expression, his body suddenly exploded.

"Four Symbols Body Protection!" Although Four Symbols True Man was feeling sorrowful within, the opponent in madness ignored his own injuries, abandoning his life to unleash a supreme attack.

Four Divine Beast phantoms, two of them were directly shattered, Four Symbols True Man looked pale, exceedingly grim; despite having slain Sun Tianjun, he similarly lost two divine beast phantoms, depleting more than half his Primordial Qi.

These Four Symbols phantoms were not conjured from thin air, they were derived from his cultivation of the Four Symbols Heavenly Skill, also part of his Taoist Foundation, the Four Symbols integrated with himself, protecting him.

If in the future he steps into the realm of Taoist Monarch, he might turn illusion into reality, transforming these four phantoms into Guardian Divine Beasts, at the very least refining Four Spirits Incarnation, with boundless potential.

But today two were shattered, which posed a huge obstacle to his cultivation; without millennia of cultivation, it will be difficult to regain the peak and recover from the injuries.

Thus, after breaking the array and slaying the opponent, Four Symbols True Man felt regret, feeling the gain wasn't worth the loss.

On the Fire Divine Dynasty's side, Four Symbols True Man broke the array perfectly, yet felt his gains didn't offset the losses, the same held true for the Great Ming Divine Dynasty camp.

Duke Wei burned with anger, divine eyes filled with murderous intent, but upon three consecutive array breaks, he lost his edge, slightly shook his head in helplessness, sounded the retreat.

The drums of retreat were struck, Great Ming warriors began slowly withdrawing, within the camp, Duke Wei quickly summoned the remaining senior brothers for a discussion.

He showed a sorrowful expression, looked at several senior brothers before him, sighed deeply, and said, "I am the Duke of Great Ming, blessed by the state through generations, repaying the country with my life, as it should be. Now the senior brothers are in distress, how can my heart endure? I ask the senior brothers to return to the mountain gate, while I face the opponents in a life-and-death struggle, unyielding till the end."

The Taoists felt sorrow upon hearing this, within short periods, their brothers suffered greatly, how tragic.

However, the situation has reached this point, how can they easily yield, where would that place the senior brothers, or Duke Wei?

They exchanged glances, nodded in determination, and said, "The Duke harbors great ambition, though we come in the name of the Ancestral Master, we must not return without victory, even if only a few formations remain, enough to seal the opponents, we will make independent judgments without worry."

They came here not merely because of Duke Wei's invitation, but also due to the Ancestral Master's decree, affecting the layout of the entire Dayan sect.

Even if it's sacrifice, ascending the Gods Sealing List together later holds no shame, inversely should they retreat yet survive by luck, how could they face other fellow disciples?

Thus, reaching this point, they cannot retreat and won't retreat, rather die than yield!

Yet they have new thoughts; the Ancestral Master sent them, thus the current situation must be reported to him for his attitude.

Duke Wei understood, since the Ancestral Master sent people, there must be a backup plan, he solidified his determination, quickly took action, and urgently said, "You guard the camp, I will immediately go to Dayan sect to seek the Ancestral Master."

Duke Wei wasted no time, swiftly heading to the Dayan sect, intending to seek the Ancestral Master's assistance.

No matter now, the eight strong from Dayan sect have all been caught up in this great calamity, they abide by the Ancestral Master's decree, which is without doubt.

Now the few brothers from Dayan sect are lost here, the Ancestral Master shouldn't be indifferent, he must have some moves, otherwise how could he inspire trust in many disciples.

So this time he decided once more to go to Dayan sect for help, believing the Great Inference Ancestor Master wouldn't miss this opportunity.

After all, for the Great Inference Ancestor Master, this is also his last chance, if he still doesn't act, choosing to remain a spectator, once the Eight Trigrams Divine Array is broken by Taoist Academy's strong, there's no chance to act again.

Not much time passed, Duke Wei arrived again at the Dayan sect, unobstructed, reaching a secluded and peaceful place in the back mountain.

Indeed, being able to come here smoothly, he knew he likely wouldn't be refused this time.

After all, with the Ancestral Master's prowess, the other definitely could detect it.
