"Xuantian Sword Sect Disciples, follow me into battle!"
Sword Master Feng's voice echoed like thunder across the entire battlefield, piercing through the clamor of combat, instantly focusing the minds of the Xuantian Sword Sect Disciples: "Today, our Xuantian Sword Sect faces an unprecedented challenge. We Sword Cultivators live and die by our swords. There is no room for compromise. Kill!"
"Kill!"
Sword Master Feng's appearance instantly ignited the fighting spirit in the hearts of the Xuantian Sword Sect Disciples, and the Disciples rode their swords to slay the enemies!
In an instant, sword light interwove, Sword Qi surged, and the entire battlefield was enveloped in a layer of fierce Sword Intent. The Xuantian Sword Sect Disciples seemed to transform into streaks of lightning, weaving through the enemy ranks. Every sword strike was accompanied by falling enemies and splashing blood. Their eyes were filled with determination and unyielding spirit, facing the powerful foe without the slightest fear or retreat.
Sword Master Feng, like the Soul of the battlefield, led the charge. The Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand seemed to come alive, with deafening sword cries resounding repeatedly, and boundless Sword Qi piercing through the battlefield.
In a flash, the Xuanxiao Sect Disciples and Nether Sect Disciples suffered heavy casualties, and their offensive was severely crippled.
Just then, the two Sect Masters made their move.
"Nether Ghost Claw, Soul Devourer!" Gao Hong roared, his hands transforming into eerie green ghost claws, carrying a sinister and terrifying Aura, as he lunged at Sword Master Feng. Upon the ghost claws, countless wailing Souls seemed to be trying to devour all life.
Xin Tiansen was not to be outdone. His black robe billowed, and the spiritual power around him condensed into a massive black sword, its tip pointing directly at Sword Master Feng: "Xuanxiao Heaven-Rending Sword, one sword breaks all Laws!"
With Xin Tiansen's furious roar, the black sword shot forth like a giant Dragon breaking through the Void Realm, carrying world-destroying power, and slashed towards Sword Master Feng.
Facing the ultimate techniques unleashed by the two Sect Masters, Sword Master Feng's gaze did not waver in the slightest. He took a deep breath, and the spiritual power within him surged wildly. The Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand burst forth with dazzling green sword light.
"Sword Heart Clarity, Myriad Laws Unassailable!" Sword Master Feng murmured. At this moment, his state of mind reached an unprecedented clarity, becoming one with the Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand. With a light tap of the sword tip, a soft yet indestructible Sword Intent emanated from within him, forming an invisible sword shield that blocked both the Nether Ghost Claw and the Xuanxiao Heaven-Rending Sword's attacks.
"You two are bold! How dare you ambush our Sect? Are the Xuanxiao Sect and Nether Sect abandoning their millennia-old Foundations?!"
Sword Master Feng's Sword Intent was awe-inspiring. He glared at Xin Tiansen and Gao Hong, then sneered, and his figure shot up like a Dragon soaring through the Nine Heavens, rushing towards the two. The Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand transformed into countless sword shadows, each containing Sword Intent capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.
Sword Master Feng fought one against two, not falling into a disadvantage, but gradually gaining the upper hand. His swordsmanship was exquisite, every move and every stance perfectly executed, allowing him to both defend against the two Sect Masters' offensives and find opportunities for counterattacks.
However, Gao Hong and Xin Tiansen were not easy opponents. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, they immediately adjusted their strategy, no longer engaging in head-on clashes, but instead began to cast their Body Integration Law Domain.
"Nether Ghost Sea, Devour All!" A dense black mist suddenly surged around Gao Hong. The mist contained endless Nether power. With a clap of his hands, the black mist instantly condensed into a vast demonic domain, engulfing Sword Master Feng and Xuantian City.
"Xuanxiao Divine Thunder, World-Destroying Descent!" Xin Tiansen, on the other hand, drew upon the thunder and lightning power of heaven and earth. He clasped his hands as if holding countless thunders. With a fierce wave of his hand, a thick lightning pillar descended from the sky, carrying world-destroying might, striking towards Sword Master Feng.
The Law Domain of Body Integration Peak powerhouses erupted with full force. In an instant, the entire battlefield was enveloped by endless darkness and lightning, and heaven and earth seemed to lose their color at this moment.
Sword Master Feng, amidst this terrifying attack, showed no hint of panic. His eyes were firm, and the sword light of the Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand reached its Peak at this moment, illuminating all darkness in the world.
"Sword Intent Manifestation, Green Iris Protection!" Sword Master Feng roared. The sword light of the Qingyuan Dao Sword suddenly surged, transforming into a giant green Phoenix, circling around him. This Phoenix was not only lifelike but also contained Sword Master Feng's profound Sword Intent. Every flap of its wings seemed capable of tearing space and shattering the Void Realm.
"Go!" With a flick of Sword Master Feng's finger, the Green Iris Phoenix let out a clear cry, flapped its wings and soared high, rushing directly towards Gao Hong and Xin Tiansen's Law Domain spells. The two collided fiercely in the air, erupting with dazzling light and deafening roars. The entire Wu Ling Star cracked due to the battle of the three.
Sword Master Feng, with his individual strength, confronted the combined efforts of two Body Integration Peak powerhouses, demonstrating extraordinary Sword Dao Cultivation and an unyielding will. The collision between the Green Iris Phoenix and the Nether Ghost Sea and Xuanxiao Divine Thunder was like falling stars, causing heaven and earth to change color. All the Cultivators present felt the destructive power fluctuations and scattered to dodge or seek shelter.
Gao Hong and Xin Tiansen's expressions were grave. They had never expected Sword Master Feng's Sword Intent to be so powerful, capable of resisting their combined ultimate techniques with his own strength. But as Sect Masters, how could they easily admit defeat? The two exchanged glances, tacitly increasing their true essence again, preparing to unleash an even more violent offensive.
"Nether Reincarnation, Endless Nightmare!" Gao Hong murmured. The black mist in the Nether Ghost Sea became even denser, beginning to spin and form a huge vortex. The center of the vortex seemed to connect to another world, releasing a heart-palpitating, terrifying Aura, attempting to drag Sword Master Feng into an endless nightmare.
"Xuanxiao Nine Heavens, Thunder Shakes the Universe!" Xin Tiansen, on the other hand, drew upon the thunder and lightning from above the Nine Heavens, gathering them into a thunder Dragon. The thunder Dragon roared, carrying power capable of shaking the universe, and charged directly towards the Green Iris Phoenix, vowing to tear apart this protective sword.
Facing this dual assault, Sword Master Feng's expression remained calm. This battle concerned the Sect's honor and his own Dao Heart; he could not retreat in the slightest. He closed his eyes and concentrated, his Sword Heart sublimating once more, and his connection with the Qingyuan Dao Sword reached an unprecedented closeness.
"Sword Heart Unity, Green Iris Nirvana!" Sword Master Feng suddenly opened his eyes, a dazzling light flashing in his pupils. The Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand seemed to gain life at this moment, its sword light greatly intensified. The Green Iris Phoenix also let out a deafening Phoenix cry, its entire body erupting in flames, transforming into a Phoenix reborn from fire, its might even greater than before.
The Green Iris Phoenix flapped its wings and soared high, rushing towards the Nether Ghost Sea and the Xuanxiao Thunder Dragon. The three intertwined in the air, forming a breathtaking scene. Every collision was accompanied by the shattering and restructuring of space, releasing world-destroying energy.
The fierce battle between the three continued. Sword Master Feng's consumption was enormous, and he gradually fell into a disadvantage. Although the Qingyuan Dao Sword was sharp, it was difficult to sustain a prolonged confrontation against the combined efforts of the two Sect Masters.
Just then, Li Mu completed the setup of the Ancient Teleportation Array and poured all his true essence into activating the Teleportation Array.
However, Xin Tiansen and Gao Hong, who were fighting Sword Master Feng, both sensed the fluctuations of the Teleportation Array's power. Their expressions changed drastically, realizing that this might be a prelude to the enemy's escape or the arrival of reinforcements.
Xin Tiansen's eyes narrowed, and he whispered to Gao Hong: "We cannot let that Teleportation Array activate, otherwise the situation will become uncontrollable."
Gao Hong nodded, and the two tacitly diverted part of their attention, no longer fully attacking Sword Master Feng, but instead unleashed powerful spells, intending to interfere with and destroy the unstable Teleportation Array.
Gao Hong waved the Nether Ghost Banner. The vengeful spirits in the Nether Ghost Sea transformed into black shadows, shooting towards the Teleportation Array like sharp arrows, attempting to erode its Foundation with Nether Qi.
Xin Tiansen, on the other hand, drew upon the thunderclouds from above the Nine Heavens, gathering them into a dense lightning net. Amidst the flashing lightning, it enveloped the area where the Teleportation Array was located with destructive power. Every bolt of lightning contained the power to tear space, intending to directly destroy this potential threat.
Seeing this, Sword Master Feng was anxious. He had to stop Gao Hong and Xin Tiansen's destruction. Although he was at the end of his tether and his spiritual power was almost exhausted, he still gritted his teeth and rushed with all his might towards the location of the Teleportation Array.
"Sword Heart Eternal, Green Iris Forever!"
Sword Master Feng roared, and the Qingyuan Dao Sword in his hand burst forth with dazzling light, merging with his will. He swung his sword, slashing at the Nether vengeful spirits that came like sharp arrows. Wherever the sword light passed, the vengeful spirits dissipated, and the Nether Qi was dispersed by the Sword Qi.
However, Xin Tiansen's control of the lightning net became even more ferocious. The dense lightning was like a net from heaven and earth, encompassing both Sword Master Feng and the Teleportation Array.
Sword Master Feng struggled to swing his sword, attempting to cleave open the lightning net, but the power of the lightning was too strong. Every collision made him feel an irresistible impact, and his body involuntarily flew backward, falling heavily to the ground.
"Die!"
Xin Tiansen glared furiously at Sword Master Feng, unleashing his full Thunder Sword Intent.
Just as Sword Master Feng was being forced back by the lightning net, almost unable to fight anymore, a roar came from the distant sky, as if ten thousand swords were chiming in unison, shaking the entire space.
"Profound Heaven Sword Formation!"
Li Mu formed hand seals, his entire body's spiritual power boiling. The Dao Artifact, Myriad Swords Mountain, emerged. With his command, countless sword shadows suddenly appeared in heaven and earth, each a sharp and incomparable spiritual sword, poised for battle.
Myriad Swords Mountain stood majestically, its sword tips pointing directly at the sky. Every sword emanated a fierce Sword Intent, forming a stark contrast with Xin Tiansen's lightning net.
Li Mu did not hesitate in the slightest, controlling Myriad Swords Mountain to cast the Myriad Swords and charge fiercely towards the lightning net sword formation. The collision of swords and lightning erupted with deafening roars. Five-to-six-tier spiritual swords successfully washed away and nullified the lightning net Sword Qi.
On the entire battlefield, time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Everyone's gaze turned in unison towards Li Mu, who had summoned Myriad Swords Mountain, controlled the Myriad Swords to form a sword formation, and rescued Sword Master Feng from despair.
At this moment, Li Mu floated in the air, forming sword seals with his hands. A small black mountain floated before him, releasing unparalleled Sword Intent, controlling ten thousand spiritual swords to chime in unison, bursting forth with brilliant sword light, like a flowing river of stars, illuminating the entire battlefield. His figure was faintly visible within the sword light, like a sword immortal, extraordinary and refined.
"What! How is this possible!"
Xin Tiansen's face changed drastically. He had never expected that Li Mu, a Grandmaster Refiner, would have Void Refining Cultivation, and be able to unleash such a powerful sword formation. His lightning net swordsmanship was actually resisted by this formation's impact.
Sword Master Feng's eyes widened. He was also startled by Li Mu's move. Although he was saved, he was even more shocked by Li Mu's hidden Cultivation and powerful combat strength. He looked at Li Mu with astonishment, as if he didn't recognize him.
"What a Profound Heaven Sword Formation, what a Li Mu!" Gao Hong gritted his teeth, but he had to admit that the opponent had exceeded his expectations. He and Xin Tiansen exchanged glances, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes.
This child must not be allowed to stay in the Xuantian Sword Sect, otherwise, sooner or later, he will become another Dao Lord, posing a great threat to their Sects.
A ruthless glint flashed in Gao Hong's eyes. He no longer held back and decisively moved to deal with Li Mu.
Gao Hong's figure flickered, and the Nether Ghost Banner waved again. This time, he no longer relied solely on the power of the Nether vengeful spirits, but personally leaped into the ghost sea, transforming into the Lord of the Nether, surrounded by dense Nether Qi, like an envoy from Hell descending.
"Nether Soul Devour, Myriad Ghosts Cry!" Gao Hong roared. The Nether Ghost Sea seemed to respond to his summons, and countless vengeful spirits gathered into a black torrent, carrying an Aura of devouring everything, rushing towards Li Mu and Sword Master Feng.
"Sword Formation, turn!"
Li Mu roared, and the Myriad Swords Formation released powerful Sword Intent. Ten thousand swords chimed in unison, sword light interwove, forming a giant sword net that tightly enveloped the surging Nether torrent. Within the sword net, sword light and Nether Qi collided fiercely, and sharp Sword Qi frantically Strangulation the Nether Ghost Sea.
Seeing this, Xin Tiansen followed closely, assisting Gao Hong, preparing to quickly take him down.
"Xuanxiao Thunder Roar, Myriad Thunders Unite, Kill!" Xin Tiansen roared. Amidst the rolling thunder, countless bolts of lightning roared like giant Dragons, striking towards Li Mu's sword formation.
At this moment, Sword Master Feng also recovered. Knowing that he could not continue to stand by, and that Li Mu's Cultivation was insufficient to fight across ranks, especially against two Body Integration Peak Cultivators, he endured his injuries, once again wielded the Qingyuan Dao Sword, and joined the battle.
"Green Iris Sword Cry, Wind Howls Boundless!"
Sword Master Feng wielded the Qingyuan Dao Sword impenetrably. The sword tip sliced through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound, tearing through all obstacles. His Sword Intent merged with the wind element, forming a strong gale that slowed down the Nether Qi and Thunder Dragon, gaining more maneuvering space for Li Mu's sword formation.
Li Mu's spirit lifted slightly. The Star Cloud Contemplation Method operated at its Peak, all invested in Myriad Swords Mountain. His mind merged with Myriad Swords Mountain, and the Sword Intent of the entire world surged with his will.
"Profound Heaven Sword Formation, Xuantian One Sword!"
Li Mu roared, pouring all his true essence into Myriad Swords Mountain.
Immediately, Myriad Swords Mountain controlled ten thousand spiritual swords, instantly converging into one, forming an unprecedented giant sword. This giant sword was not only a condensation of Sword Intent but also an embodiment of the Laws of heaven and earth. Its existence suffocated everything.
Xuantian One Sword slashed across the sky, carrying world-destroying power, directly striking the Nether torrent and lightning giant Dragon unleashed by Gao Hong and Xin Tiansen. Wherever the giant sword passed, space was split in two, and the Nether Qi and lightning power dissipated under the impact of the immense Sword Intent, unable to resist the sharpness of this sword.
