Free Web NovelChapter 501: Chapter 97: Ghostly Hands Unleashed, the Grand Formation Shattered Again
"Finally here?"
The Celestial Dao Demon Venerable was surrounded by a fierce killing aura, standing there, feeling like the center of the entire heavens and earth was upon him.
The bloodlust, killing aura, and murky aura from the battlefield below were drawn to him like wild dragons.
Wherever the Dao is, its aura arises naturally.
The Human Immortal cannot possess inexhaustible mana, only using a bit of ’Immortal Power’ in conjunction with the laws they’ve comprehended to leverage the great forces of heaven and earth.
To achieve greatness with little, using one part of strength as a thousand, thus becoming mighty.
So, if the Harmonization of Dao grasps the laws, it may be possible to contend with the Human Immortal.
But the True Immortal, because of the presence of the Dao, as long as their Dao exists, the power congruent with their Dao in heaven and earth can be borrowed.
Therefore, in the True Immortal Realm, as long as the world does not perish, strength does not end.
Unless there is a stronger force that seals the connection with the Dao, it is extremely difficult to decide a victor among True Immortals.
Even though the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable was much stronger than the Drought Demoness before, the result could only wound her for a while.
Recovery would not take much time.
"If I didn’t come, I’m afraid after this great defeat, I would have no chance of turning the tides again."
Xuanyuan stared at the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable, at first, he was weaker than Chi You, during this time he diligently cultivated.
Plus, after crafting the Xuanyuan Sword, he originally wanted to wait, consume the Jiu Li for some time before taking action.
But the continuous wars had already brought many different voices within the tribe.
They are not tools, they are living people, with families, with children, with wives.
This continuous depletion has already led the tribesmen to start doubting the original claim that Jiu Li was weak, breakable at a touch.
The battle reports could lie, saying the front lines were continuously conquered, but those who died could not lie.
If they were continuously conquered, why did so many people die.
Even Xuanyuan couldn’t sit still anymore, upon receiving the report from the front lines, even True Martial and Cangjie had started to falter.
Xuanyuan could no longer restrain himself, wielding his sword to come to Zulu.
The battle-scarred cultivators within the city saw Xuanyuan, and morale soared.
The leader of Holy Virtue.
These people had always been cared for by the tribe, naturally loyal to Xuanyuan again, and now with Xuanyuan’s reappearance.
It naturally bolstered their morale.
At this moment, the Wind Queen, who originally had some difficulty forming the Array, found that the Array was smoother.
The next moment.
Endless worldly killing aura gathered in the Tiger Soul held by the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable, transforming into a blade light that could slash through everything.
On the other side, the golden light from Xuanyuan’s long sword, domineering to the extreme, also transformed into sword light, piercing the void.
"Boom—!"
A thunderous roar that echoed through heaven and earth instantly erupted, two beams of light more resplendent than the great sun in the sky collided, sweeping out countless tangible ripples.
Even the space trembled like silken cloth being wrinkled, creating stripes of wrinkles.
"The battle between Xuanyuan and Chi You is much stronger than other True Immortals..."
Shen Fei watched the supreme point in the sky, like two suns colliding, where everything in the heavens, laws, and space were distorted.
The space shattered, shattering and returning, back and forth, as if this time and space was to be recklessly obliterated.
Their battle was much more terrifying than that of Duan Xiu and the Drought Demoness, Shennong, and the Ying Dragon.
"Naturally, they are the two most talented individuals of this generation; otherwise, how could they vie for the position of Human Emperor."
"Whomever can become the Human Emperor will seize the future path of the other, and could reach even greater heights."
Qin Wan appeared beside him, ever since he assisted the Celestial Dao Demon Venerable in improving the Jiuli Array, he usually only discussed the Jiuli changes with Duan Xiu.
Shen Fei avoided much interaction with this man trying to stir up trouble, rarely taking the initiative to converse.
Yet now initiating conversation was indeed rare.
"Celestial Monarch, what lies above the True Immortal?"
Shen Fei was curious, the True Immortal here equated to Tier Eleven on the Blue Star, condensing a Divine Throne in the Abyss.
Previously, when he asked Duan Xiu how True Immortals cultivated, what lay beyond the True Immortal was brushed off.
Now he asked again, hoping to uncover something.
Qin Wan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Above the True Immortal is the Profound Immortal, mysterious within mysteries, the gate to numerous wonders."
’Tier Twelve is the Profound Immortal, huh?’
"Is there a method to break through from True Immortal to Profound Immortal?"
"Of course, many Dao lineages possess such methods, like in your faction’s Empress, in Lix Mountain, methods to break through to Profound Immortal are countless.
But..."
Qin Wan stopped halfway, not continuing.
Shen Fei understood that this information was likely disclosed to him by the person behind the scenes.
After piecing it together.
This Ancient Secret Realm was an illusion, and the so-called Dao Lineages, seemed like background props.
Whether it was Kunlun, overseas, Lix Mountain, or True Martial.
Shen Fei knew that even if a Dao lineage intervened, it was only Celestial Venerable Guangcheng and Qin Wan.
Moreover, if it wasn’t for his intent to reverse the grand trend, even Qin Wan wouldn’t appear.
But now, Qin Wan still disclosed how to advance from Tier Eleven to Tier Twelve.
It was essentially telling him, to move further up, one must engage with the Dao Lineage...
The hidden implication was, to interact with those who created the Ancient Secret Realm, or the existing Divine Dynasty forces.
"Understood."
Shen Fei did not express any intention, just pondering, could it be that the Church’s contact with the Bright Church Court in the Age of Gods was for future paths.
During the battle between Xuanyuan and Chi You.
The people below were not idle, though previously the Empress, Medicine Ancestor, and Jiuli Array teamed up.
After breaking through their stronghold, under Cangjie’s maintenance, the Wind Queen rapidly recovered.
At the same time, True Martial intervened, protecting some who maintained the Array, ultimately allowing the ’Kunqian Inversion Array’ to reemerge.
Then Cangjie no longer intervened, but went to the site of the Human Immortal battles, entering the fray.
The stronghold was re-established, successive bombardments had already vanished, after such a prolonged stalemate, the remaining Jiu Li artillery was depleted.
However, various witchcraft and Immortal Skills continued to ravage.
"Troublesome."
Shen Fei shook his head, even after such serial defeats, Youxiong could still persist.
With a thought.
"Extreme Ghost Swordsman!"
"Dark Heaven Fluctuating Eye!"
"Nether Night Ghost Celestial Kill!"
...
Numerous individuals in the stronghold unexpectedly engaged in rampant destruction within it.
Blood surged like dragons, countless fluctuations ravaged wildly, vast Ghost God descended, innumerable seemingly solid swords stood from the sky, emerged from the ground...
In an instant.
The numerous unsuspecting cultivators inside the stronghold were instantly slain, the Array flickered again!
"Yin Yang Great Five Elements Divine Light!"
"Celestial Poison!"
...
The Empress and another seemed prepared long ago, with the amplification from the Jasper Pool, even without the Jiuli Array taking action.
Their formidable might was no weaker than the previous joint attack of three.
The already flickering grand array, even with the ’Reverse Law’ inside, could not simultaneously invert the two laws.
The newly condensed grand array was quickly broken, disappearing.
The prepared Jiuli Soldiers rushed forth like locusts once more.
