When high-level cultivators—those at the Core Formation stage and above—engage in magical duels, they rely primarily on their natal magical treasures or even ancient treasures. For cultivators below the Core Formation stage, battles naturally revolve around magical tools, talisman treasures, talismans, and spells. Yet, regardless of the level, these confrontations are always spectacular and extremely perilous; a single moment of carelessness can cost one their life on the spot.
Therefore, upon realizing that Yan Taibai would not release the young girl held by the old man behind him, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Yinyang Demon Sect of Yuanwu State did not dare to be negligent, despite Yan Taibai only being at the early Foundation Establishment stage. They each immediately produced a primary-grade high-level Earth-attribute talisman—a Thick Armor Shield Talisman—to safeguard themselves. Simultaneously, they flicked their sleeves to reveal their signature magical tools for combat.
One tool was a soul-gathering banner, oozing with an ominous, gloomy aura. The whistling of ghostly winds and wails sent shivers down one’s spine, causing the very sky above to turn cold and gloomy. The other, belonging to the "Fairy Huojiao," was a fire-red, ten-foot-long war hammer. Once unleashed, it struck like a meteor, possessing such ferocity that few could withstand it.
