Within the Celestial Cloud Cave.
The entire Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace was now covered in black demonic patterns. Bursts of dark energy flared erratically.
It was as if a horde of vicious demons had claid the whole Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace for themselves!
"Shrink!"
Jiang Chen let out a low roar and clapped his hands together forcefully.
RUMBLE...
The entire Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace trembled violently, uprooting itself from the ground. The massive structure, weighing a hundred thousand jin, began to spin ceaselessly under the power of Jiang Chen’s hands.
As the Cyan Radiance Celestial Palace spun, it grew smaller and smaller.
Finally, it transford into a Flowing Light and flew into Jiang Chen’s palm, looking just like a Jade Seal.
’This is the Artifact Refining Skill of the Celestial Demon Emperor Venerable, just as I expected. It’s said... that the Celestial Demon Emperor Venerable used this very technique to refine entire stars, shrinking them down to the size of mud pellets. Then, when facing his enemies, he would hurl them out one by one. It was like smashing his foes with actual stars. How unbelievably powerful!’ Jiang Chen muttered to himself, a look of longing on his face.
Plucking stars from the sky with a single hand!
Refining them down to the size of pellets.
Casually tossing them out, sending star after star crashing down on powerful enemies.
Such overwhelming dominance and power!
Jiang Chen clenched his fists. ’One day, I will also possess this kind of tyrannical strength!’
’This God-Devouring Realm consus a huge amount of Divine Thought! I should dismiss it for now!’
In just that short ti, he had already consud forty percent of his Divine Thought Power.
He could only maintain the full power of the God-Devouring Realm for about the ti it takes an incense stick to burn; that was his limit. If he persisted any longer, the excessive drain on his Divine Thought would cause severe damage to himself.
Jiang Chen imdiately dismissed the God-Devouring Realm, and his cultivation slid back down to the Heavenly Destiny Realm Sixth Stage.
"Hm?"
Just then, the Communication Token in his clothes vibrated slightly. After sweeping it with his Divine Thought, a grim, cold look appeared on Jiang Chen’s face. He imdiately looked at Wu Hao. "Wu Hao, take to Haifeng City right now!"
"Benefactor, did sothing happen?" Wu Hao asked, confused.
Jiang Chen’s face grew frosty as he walked out of the Celestial Cloud Cave. "A few of my friends ford an alliance to resist the Nine Sins Hall and are attacking Haifeng City. But they’re trapped inside the Nine Sins Hall’s Nine Demons Sky Demon Array. I have to get there as fast as I can before sothing happens to them!"
White Tiger and Bai Ling were both experts of the Heaven-Soaring Alliance.
’If I want to truly stand against Lan Haichen, the biggest hurdle is still dealing with the Celestial Alliance!’
’I have to build up a faction of my own!’
But...
Within the Saint Martial Sword Sect, the Celestial Alliance was the undisputed number one faction. Not even the Crown Prince Faction, established by Yuwen Tiandu, the Crown Prince of the Saint Martial Dynasty, could compete with them!
’This situation in the Celestial Fate Ancient Realm is the perfect opportunity for to dismantle the Celestial Alliance’s peak experts!’
"Benefactor, please follow !"
Wu Hao understood the urgency of the situation. He quickly led the way, taking Jiang Chen toward Haifeng City at the fastest possible speed.
But his speed was far too slow, not even half of Jiang Chen’s full speed.
Frustrated, Jiang Chen simply grabbed Wu Hao and said, "Just point in the right direction. I’ll carry you!"
"Ah... oh..."
Wu Hao had a wry expression as he pointed in a direction. The next mont, a fierce wind rushed into his mouth, cutting him off.
「...」
「Haifeng City.」
This was the main city of the Ninth State, even larger than Celestial Relief City.
At this very mont, the area outside Haifeng City was shrouded in Ghost Qi. The gloomy energy coalesced into one Evil Ghost after another, while within the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array, countless vicious Corpse Ghosts were besieging a group of experts, mainly from the Saint Martial Sword Sect, the Fiery Sun Sect, and the Sun and Moon Pavilion.
These were all experts who had banded together to resist the Nine Sins Hall.
"Dammit, I told you all not to be so reckless! Now look at us! We’re all trapped here..."
"We’re dead at... This is the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array. The more of them we kill, the more Corpse Ghosts the array creates, and the stronger it gets. We’re going to be worn down until we’re all dead..."
"White Tiger, Bai Ling, this is all your fault!"
The experts roared in anger one after another.
The endless Corpse Ghosts were terrifyingly powerful, their attacks devastating.
The expressions on Bai Ling and White Tiger’s faces were extrely grim.
White Tiger’s face was filled with self-reproach. "Ling’Er, this is all my fault..."
"Brother, how can this be your fault? They all agreed to attack Haifeng City earlier!" Bai Ling consoled him.
"Sigh..."
White Tiger let out a bitter sigh.
After joining the Heaven-Soaring Alliance, he had been eager to achieve sothing of rit. So, he led the experts resisting the Nine Sins Hall in a full-frontal assault on Haifeng City. He never expected that the Nine Sins Hall had already set up the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array there. After a brutal battle, the Nine Sins Hall’s masters activated the Grand Array and trapped them inside.
Left with no other choice, he had to bite the bullet and send a ssage to Jiang Chen for help.
White Tiger looked at the boundless ocean of Corpse Ghosts around them, despair clouding his face. "All we can do now is hope the Alliance Leader arrives in ti!"
"Hahaha, White Tiger, weren’t you all so arrogant before? Why don’t you show us that arrogance again now!"
"A bunch of trash from the Saint Martial Sword Sect! The only one in your entire sect worth a damn is Lan Haichen. The rest of you are all garbage!"
"You’re all dead!"
Atop Haifeng City’s walls, the experts of the Nine Sins Hall jeered loudly.
Inside the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array.
The faces of the many experts were unsightly. Bai Ling and White Tiger, in particular, were being blad by everyone.
An expert from the Emperor Pavilion shouted, "Everyone from the Nine Sins Hall, we are willing to surrender! We’ll hand over White Tiger and Bai Ling to you, just spare our lives!"
This statent imdiately triggered a wave of agreent.
"We of the Celestial Sword Sect have also decided to surrender! From now on, we’ll follow the Nine Sins Hall’s lead!"
"And us from the Yuhua Sect..."
"The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, as well..."
One by one, their allies turned on them.
This made the expressions on Bai Ling and White Tiger’s faces grow even uglier, tinged with despair.
Bai Ling raged, "Are you all idiots? If you surrender now, do you really think the people from the Nine Sins Hall will actually let us go?"
"No matter what, it’s a chance to live!"
"As long as there’s a sliver of hope, we’re willing to take the gamble. Even if they don’t let us go in the end, it just ans we’ve wronged the two of you. If it cos to that, we’ll just burn so extra spirit money for you..."
"That’s right! White Tiger, Bai Ling, you two started this whole ss. I think you should just give yourselves up! Don’t force our hands..."
Just monts ago, they were comrades fighting side-by-side, but in an instant, they had all turned traitor.
A desperate gaze swept across those cold, indifferent faces.
A wave of sorrow washed over White Tiger and Bai Ling’s hearts.
On the city wall.
Seeing this, the experts of the Nine Sins Hall sneered and called out, "As long as you make White Tiger and Bai Ling kill themselves inside the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array, we will let the rest of you go!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the experts who were still hesitating imdiately switched sides.
One by one, they brandished their gleaming Profound Weapons, their killing intent surging as they closed in on Bai Ling and White Tiger.
White Tiger and Bai Ling looked at each other, seeing the cold fury in each other’s eyes. He glanced at the experts from the Tenth Hall standing behind him and said in a low voice, "Brothers, are you afraid to die?"
"No!"
"You only die once, so what the hell is there to be afraid of?!"
"Senior Brother Bai, Junior Sister Bai, let’s fight them to the death!"
The experts of the Tenth Hall roared in unison.
A look of relief appeared on White Tiger’s face. He said grimly, "Good! The Tenth Hall only has n who die on their feet, not cowards who live on their knees! We’ll fight them to the end!"
"You refused the easy way, so now you’ll get the hard way! Go die!"
"Sacrificing a few of you can save the rest of us, and you’re not even willing to do that? You’re too selfish! White Tiger, Bai Ling, die!"
In an instant, several thousand experts sward toward White Tiger and the three hundred-plus mbers of the Tenth Hall. It looked as if a massacre was about to begin.
But just then...
A gleaming black Sword Aura, a thousand zhang long, seed to rip through the void itself as it tore through the air. It slashed down upon the Nine Demons Sky Demon Array, the very sa formation that had struck fear into the hearts of countless experts.
At that mont, everyone’s face filled with utter shock...
A sword, coming from the east!
Peerlessly brilliant!
