Lu Ren remained silent, knowing that saying anything at this mont is futile; everything will be proven right or wrong through actions. After all, speaking about the system is completely reckless.
This tall and thin old Daoist was once spirited and indignant at the cruelty the Immortal Path held toward the Human Race, wanting to change everything, but eventually grew disillusioned and even joined their ranks.
It can be said that these three hundred old Daoists all had similar experiences; in the end, more than half of them used at least the people of one city for cultivating and refining Taoist Artifacts.
If not for Zhang Tongxuan's long-standing legacy and the Dragon Tiger Celestial Master's Order that could call upon them three tis, these old Daoists wouldn't listen to Zhang Tongxuan babble here.
The old Daoist was also not keen on speaking much with Lu Ren and Zhang Tongxuan; in his view, this was a do-or-die situation. However, the crowd of old Daoists, who already had a year or two left at most, didn't harbor any thoughts of shirking their duties.
The long years of cultivation had long sharpened these old Daoists' Dao hearts to an extre coldness, almost lawless.
When these old Daoists were activated and learned from Zhang Tongxuan's order using the Dragon Tiger Celestial Master's Order that they were to battle the soon-to-return Celestial Palace's Ling Mountain, not only were they unafraid, but even though they grumbled to vent their dissatisfaction, their skills beca fiercer than ever.
The tall and thin old Daoist cast his last talisman, then took a scroll from his bosom. Upon unfolding it, remarkably, there was a chessboard etched upon it.
He gave a slight shake of his hand, and the ancient, tattered scroll's chessboard transford into divine light, shooting out.
He strode forward and shouted loudly, "Fellow brothers, we have no more than one or two good years left, whether the flood cos after death, it was the Celestial Master of the ti who summoned us with the Dragon Tiger Celestial Master's Order. So, I will share what I have, lest it goes underground never to see daylight. Please join in my formation!"
A group of cursing old Daoists all agreed heartily, and each took a step forward, transforming themselves into chess pieces.
The next mont, a world-shocking formation of ancient tis was presented before everyone's eyes.
In the starry sky, strands of divine light intertwined, evolving into a massive chessboard that almost encompassed the entire Solar System.
This chessboard stretched north, south, east, west, and endlessly up and down, with talismans tethered within it, seemingly encompassing all things imaginable.
The renowned Chen Qingquan stood in the sky above the chessboard, holding a chess piece. Under the weaving divine light, his aura continually ascended, and his Essence, Qi, and Spirit began to burn furiously.
In an instant, this tall and thin old Daoist transford into a young man with sword-like brows and star-like eyes, elegant as an Exiled Immortal.
The other two hundred ninety-nine True Immortal Daoists who stepped into the chessboard and transford into chess pieces burst forth with divine radiance, transcending the speed of light in an incomprehensible manner, leaping infinite distances.
In an instant, leveraging the divine power of the chessboard, they relocated two hundred ninety-nine celestial stars, parked upon the chessboard, spinning idly, emitting terrifying Power.
Such grandeur, magnificence, and even incredibility entirely overturned Lu Ren's understanding of True Immortal Power.
"The chessboard, this Innate Spiritual Treasure, is probably the last ti it will operate before breaking altogether."
Zhang Tongxuan sighed silently; as such, Dragon Tiger Mountain had fully revealed its foundation. After this battle, if any Dao lineage would remain in the world, it would face an extrely arduous path of decline.
Suddenly, he roared to the sky, "The four Sacred Lands in Kunlun have already been slaughtered by us, Lu Ren, we are already at a life-or-death struggle, with no path of return!"
Lu Ren nodded slightly, no longer speaking, his gaze tightly fixed on the expanding, quickly stretched to hundred-ter-high tunnel behind. This connection to the unknown, reopened in the Mythical Era by the Jade Emperor and Tathagata's joint effort, was recovering once more.
Soon after, a corner erged from the passage, visible to the naked eye with knife cuts, sword stabs, the marks of unknown beast claws, and gnawing traces.
A breath ravaged by wind and frost was engraved on its surface, yet the breathtaking divine light emanating from it was still unstoppable.
Shortly afterward, rows of iron-blooded Celestial Soldiers imbued with the aura of True Immortals filed in orderly, carrying an aura of bleak numbness that shook the world.
When they saw the people by the dock, the eyes of these numbed, iron-blooded veterans glead green, eager to devour the blood food for vital nourishnt.
In the next mont, a face the size of the stars overlooked the Celestial Soldiers and Generals charging into the present world from the unknown, with chilly eyes and boundless pressure.
Then, a finger covering the heavens ca, propelling a fire-red star exuding magma.
"Place the piece, Celestial Essence!"
Place the piece, Celestial Essence!
It was as if heaven and earth turned upside down, and the red-faced old Daoist instantly rged with the star, under the intersecting divine light of the chessboard, weaving endless lines. His position was precisely at the center of the chessboard, the Celestial Essence point.
Om!!
In an instant, the chessboard radiated divine light, stirring the void!
The red-faced Daoist laughed wildly, moving with the Celestial Essence Star, sweeping unimaginable power, carrying endless offensive divine light. At a vast distance, ripples appeared in the void.
The space was pressed with layers of folds under the rolling pressure of the densely massive star, and everything in its path wailed unbearable sounds.
Even Lu Ren, who had transford into the Ancestral Witch Incarnation, couldn't help but be moved by this spectacle; the Innate Spiritual Treasure chessboard, hidden by the Dragon Tiger Mountain, contained unimaginably profound power.
Boom!!
A star descended with celestial might, suppressing across the heavens, rivers rolling, stars falling, erupting with unimaginable offensive power.
The space folds surged and ebbed like layered waves, disastrously unrestrained.
And the hundreds of Celestial Soldiers and Generals that had just rushed out from unknown land barely had ti to turn their eyeballs before being forcibly seized by the Celestial Essence Star, unable to move.
Escape, was simply impossible; the surrounding space was tightly sealed.
Retreat, behind them the Celestial Palace gathered divine light, supporting the passage to the unknown, retreat ant certain death and Dao disintegration.
Even in utter despair, these veterans who had endured slaughter in unknown lands and were at the trough of valiance were fearless, shouting in unison.
"Kill!"
As the words reverberated, they even montarily froze the starry chessboard ford from the Innate Spiritual Treasure, collectively raising their weapons with the strength of a military formation to kill.
These Celestial Soldiers and Generals, who continuously ford battle formations, surged with endless lightning and electric light around them, resembling thick, coiling thunder snakes, blazing the void of heaven and earth with each swing of their arms.
With this entire battle formation exerting force, it erupted with a terrifying force that made people change color in dismay.
Rumble!!
It was like hundreds of thunderclaps exploding simultaneously, large swathes of visible ripples frenziedly spreading apart from the molten rouge large star pressing down.
In the void, there seed to be sudden sounds reminiscent of glass shattering.
In an instant, heaven and earth roared, breathtaking divine light burst forth fiercely.
Mighty forces beyond description collided together.
Yet what stunned everyone's eyes was that the power potent enough to crack a star rely had a block shaved off under the chessboard's divine brilliance, as the great star arrived, crushing the hundreds of Celestial Soldiers and Generals.
