Chapter 5817
…
Meanwhile, at the Xuantian Sword Sect, in the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain Range.
The once peaceful scene of soaring sword energy and flocks of cranes was gone, replaced by rolling demonic clouds that blotted out the sky and countless ferocious, roaring beast shadows!
Deafening shouts of battle, explosions, the clang of metal on metal, and the groaning of the mountain-protecting array, all mingled together to form a cruel and grand symphony of war, echoing throughout the entire mountain range.
The Ten Thousand Souls Demonic Sect and the Fusion Beast Saint Sect had actually joined forces!
Moreover, they had launched a full-scale surprise attack on the Xuantian Sword Sect! On
the Ten Thousand Souls Demonic Sect’s side, led by Sect Master Hun Sha, although the five-finger mark on his face was still visible and his aura was much weaker than in his prime, the resentment and flames of revenge burning in his eyes were more intense than ever before!
Behind him, dozens of elders of the fifth rank or above of the Heavenly Immortal realm, hundreds of elite deacons of the fourth rank of the Heavenly Immortal realm, and tens of thousands of low-ranking demonic sect disciples formed a formidable demonic battle formation.
Countless vengeful spirits surged forth from the magical artifacts they unleashed, such as the Myriad Soul Banner and the Soul-Devouring Bowl, forming a ghostly realm covering dozens of miles. The wailing of ghosts and the overwhelming demonic energy relentlessly assaulted and corroded the protective array of the Xuan Tian Sword Sect.
Even more chilling was the appearance of a more concealed yet dangerous figure beside Hun Sha.
This person was shrouded in a wide black robe, obscuring their face, revealing only a pair of eyes glowing with eerie green flames. The soul pressure emanating from this figure was even stronger than Hun Sha’s, clearly indicating that this was also a demonic giant at the peak of the seventh rank of the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
It was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Myriad Souls Demon Sect, Ghost Bone Elder, who had been in seclusion!
Clearly, the Demon Sect had unleashed its true power to destroy the Xuan Tian Sword Sect.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the Myriad Beasts Sect, led by its sect leader Zheng Gu, displayed astonishing destructive power.
Thousands upon thousands of Fusion Beast warriors of various forms roared and charged at the forefront.
Thick-skinned and fearless, they relied on their powerful physiques and innate supernatural abilities to withstand the sword energy and array light of the Sword Sect.
Many of the Fusion Beast Warriors had bloodshot eyes, clearly having taken drugs like “Bloodlust Pills” to stimulate their potential, making them even more ferocious.
Zheng Gu himself swelled to five zhang tall, his body covered in dark red demonic scales, wielding a giant axe burning with pitch-black demonic flames. Each swing carried the power to split mountains and shatter rocks as he frantically attacked a certain node of the great array.
Beside him followed several other ferocious Fusion Beast leaders, clearly enhanced by the secret techniques of the Demonic Sect.
The Xuan Tian Sword Sect, on the other hand, struggled to hold on with its ancient protective array—the Big Dipper Sword Qi Subduing Demon Array.
Seven sword peaks, built according to the orientation of the Big Dipper, shone brightly, emitting seven thick, dazzling sword beams that intertwined to form a massive light screen covering a hundred miles above the sect.
Within this screen, countless tiny sword energies darted and flowed like fish, forming intricate and profound sword diagrams, constantly eroding and annihilating the incoming demonic energy and beastly shadows.
Inside the sect, all disciples and elders were mobilized.
Ling Yunzi, pale and with blood at the corner of his mouth, clearly had suffered new wounds on top of old ones, yet he still stood tall at the highest point of the mountain gate, wielding the sect leader’s sword, “Xuantian,” continuously channeling his pure sword energy into the core of the grand formation, commanding with unwavering composure.
The elders each performed their duties: some guarded the sword peaks to maintain the formation’s core, while others led disciples in sword formations to intercept enemies who managed to breach weak points in the array.
Sword light rained down, crisscrossing and maneuvering.
The disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect possessed formidable individual combat strength, exquisite swordsmanship, and perfect teamwork.
Often, a small sword formation composed of a few people could hold their own against, or even kill, a number of Fusion Beast warriors or Demon Sect disciples.
But the enemies were simply too numerous!
Moreover, the Demon Sect and the Fusion Beast clan were cooperating, their demonic energy eroding and weakening the formation, while the Fusion Beasts’ brute force broke through the formation, putting immense pressure on the Sword Sect.
The great formation’s light barrier rippled violently under countless attacks, flickering and emitting a teeth-grinding “creaking” sound.
Alarms constantly came from various formation bases indicating damage, and the disciples left behind desperately tried to repair them, but often, just as one was repaired, another would be in danger.
“Sect Master! More than 30% of the formation base on Tian Shu Peak has been damaged, and Elder Wang, who is guarding it, is seriously injured!”
“The Demon Sect is launching a concentrated attack outside Yao Guang Peak, and Elder Li is requesting reinforcements!” ”
A Fusion Beast in the southeast corner has broken through the sword energy seal and rushed into the outer buildings; Deacon Chen is leading men to intercept it!”
Bad news kept coming in.
Although the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciples were brave, they were outnumbered and exhausted after days of fighting without proper rest.
In contrast, the Demonic Sect and the Beast Fusion Holy Sect were clearly well-prepared and had been conserving their strength, launching wave after wave of attacks.
