Chapter 5818
“Hehehe! Ling Yunzi! Today is the day your Xuantian Sword Sect is destroyed!”
Hun Sha’s maniacal laughter echoed across the battlefield. He commanded several “Soul-Devouring Demon Dragons,” formed from thousands of ferocious souls, to continuously ram into the light barrier of the great formation. “Once the great formation is broken, I will slaughter your entire Xuantian Sword Sect to avenge the humiliation of that day!” Zheng Gu
roared as well, his giant axe slamming into the light barrier, creating ripples across the sky: “The accomplices of that old man Lie Tian! And that damned brat Kai! Once we break through here, you will be next! I will use your skulls to decorate my Holy Sect’s main hall!” Ling
Yunzi’s face was ashen, the Xuantian Sword in his hand gleaming. He shouted sharply: “Disciples, listen to my command! As long as the sword is here, we are here; if the sword dies, we die! Protect the sect, fight to the death! Activate the ‘Seven Star Immortal-Falling Sword’ preparatory formation!”
“Yes! Fight to the death!”
All the Sword Sect disciples roared in unison, their voices like swords, soaring into the sky, tragic and resolute.
They knew they had reached a critical juncture, a matter of life and death for their sect.
The “Seven Star Immortal-Falling Sword” was the last desperate measure of the mountain-protecting formation.
Once activated, the sword intent accumulated over ten thousand years by the seven sword peaks would erupt all at once, unleashing earth-shattering power, but it would also cause the formation to completely collapse, destroying its foundation—a final choice of mutual destruction.
The battle entered its most brutal phase.
Every moment, Sword Sect disciples fell, their blood staining the mountain gate’s stone steps; every moment, Demon Sect disciples or Beast Fusion Warriors were annihilated by the fierce sword energy.
Yet, the light of the formation dimmed visibly under the countless attacks.
At this moment, at the entrance to the Blazing Fire Secret Realm,
Kai’s figure suddenly appeared before Ling Shuang and the others.
His aura was different now. Though still restrained, the profound depth and oppressive power he inadvertently revealed caused Ling Yan’s pupils to shrink slightly, his heart filled with shock: “Such a transformation in just a few days?! What did he obtain within the Crystal Tower?”
“Senior Chen!”
“Senior!”
Seeing Kai appear, Ling Shuang rushed forward as if seeing a savior, even disregarding etiquette, handing him the vibrating communication jade talisman in her hand.
A voice, trembling with tears, cried out: “Senior! A message from the sect: the Myriad Souls Demon Sect, in conjunction with the Beast Fusion Holy Sect, is launching a massive attack on our Xuan Tian Sword Sect!”
“The mountain-protecting formation is about to break! Father… Father has activated the preparatory phase of the ‘Seven Star Immortal-Falling Sword,’ he’s going to perish with the enemy! Please, Senior, go to our rescue immediately!”
Lie Tian and the others also paled.
If the Xuan Tian Sword Sect fell, the remnants of their Myriad Beasts Sect would completely lose their external support, and the Demon Sect’s next target would undoubtedly be them! Kai took the jade talisman and scanned it with his divine sense. Inside was Ling Yunzi’s urgent and brief final message.
It explained the critical situation and subtly mentioned that he hoped Kai could, out of consideration for his past acquaintance with Ling Shuang and their joint fight against the Demonic Sect, perhaps… preserve a sliver of the Xuan Tian Sword Sect’s lineage.
His eyes flashed with a cold light! Soul Fiend! Bone-Rending! What a brilliant move, what a treacherous scheme!
“Miss Ling, Sect Master Lie Tian, you should continue to heal here. It’s safe here,”
Kai said quickly, his tone leaving no room for doubt. “Sword Venerable Tian Huo, please keep an eye on things.”
Ling Yan, already aware of the drastic changes outside, nodded solemnly, “Don’t worry, with me here, the secret realm is safe. You…”
Before he could finish speaking, Kai had already turned to face the exit of the secret realm.
He took a deep breath, unleashing his full power—the peak of the ninth rank of the Human Immortal Realm—without reservation!
The chaotic immortal power awakened like a dormant volcano, his body enveloped in chaotic radiance. The phantom of the chaotic fire lotus faintly appeared behind him, radiating a supreme aura that commanded all fires.
The flames throughout the entire Li Huo Secret Realm seemed to sway gently, paying homage to him.
“I’ll be right back.”
Before the words were even finished, Kai’s figure had already transformed into a chaotic streak of light that tore through space, breaking through the flame barrier at the entrance of the secret realm at a speed several times greater than before, rushing towards the Xuan Tian Sword Sect!
Wherever he passed, the clouds in the sky were forced aside by his majestic aura and scorching Daoist charm, leaving behind a trace that lingered for a long time.
Ling Shuang stared at the direction he disappeared in, clenching her fists tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with worry and anticipation.
Lie Tian and the others also prayed silently.
Ling Yan gazed at the rapidly disappearing streak of light in the sky, muttering to himself, “The Chaos Fire Seed… the peak of the ninth rank of the Human Immortal Realm… this boy’s departure will likely stir up the winds and clouds of the Ten Heavens. The Xuan Tian Sword Sect… perhaps still has a glimmer of hope.” In
the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain Range, the decisive battle had reached its climax.
The light of the Big Dipper Sword Qi Subduing Demon Formation had dimmed like a candle in the wind, teetering on the verge of collapse. Soul Fiend and Ghost Bone Elder joined forces, their ferocious bones roaring wildly, preparing to launch a final, fatal blow.
Meanwhile, a chaotic light, carrying the power to scorch the heavens and boil the seas, and an icy, bone-chilling killing intent, was tearing through the sky at an unimaginable speed, approaching this battlefield of carnage.
