Chapter 1224 -59: Opening_3
“But once we fail, it’s not just a matter of losing; it could even lead us to complete defeat.”
“Since we have an absolute advantage in strength, we should maintain this advantage all the way instead of crippling ourselves.” The Soul Venerable, despite the fall of the Soul Split, remained extrely calm in his analysis.
“Soul Venerable, won’t such actions lead to excessive losses?” The Yu Venerable inclined towards the thod of overall crushing as proposed by the Soul Venerable, yet he still showed so concern.
It is imaginable that once the Stronghold of the Evernight Mountains is established, it will inevitably beco a slaughterhouse.
“As long as we cross this threshold, there will be nothing in the world that can rival our Incessant Domain.”
“By then, for every death in the Evernight Mountains, our Incessant Domain’s Demon Race will lose ten fewer people. Central Spirit thinks they can use the Evernight Mountains to block our great dragon, but little do they know they are actually raising a dragon!” The Soul Venerable laughed coldly and arrogantly.
With these words, the Soul Venerable finally persuaded the Yu Venerable.
He nodded heavily and said in a deep voice, “Then we follow your words.”
……
At Yi River, the sky was gradually darkening.
The pursuit of the Rinsing Spirit Sect’s demonic cultivators and demon beasts had been ongoing for a long ti.
The lights in the Heaven’s Vault had never ceased.
In one corner.
Xi Xiang, at the Seventh Realm Perfection cultivation, along with three other sa-sect mbers, had been chasing a First Tribulation Realm demonic cultivator from the Rinsing Spirit Sect for a long ti.
Both sides were greatly exhausted.
“Stable Army Peak, Destroying Army Sword Formation.” Suddenly, Xi Xiang found the perfect mont when an attack from a Rinsing Spirit Sect demonic cultivator was countered, the old thod gone, the new thod not yet born, and shouted.
The three old sword cultivators by his side imdiately moved, quickly taking up crucial positions.
Sword cultivators have always been lone wolves; they rarely practice formations.
Compared to others, the old sword cultivators had depleted qi-blood and their power was far weaker, but they were not without advantages.
That advantage was their ability to be calm, giving them a touch more gentleness compared to the rebellious young sword cultivators.
Thus, they were able to practice the rarely seen Combined Attack Formation among sword cultivators.
Xi Xiang took position in the eastern corner, his sword light as water pouring out.
The other positions to the west, north, and south also shone with shimring sword light.
Then, the four streams of sword light gathered and unified, rising abruptly.
After striking this sword, the faces of the four old sword cultivators turned pale as snow.
Indeed, they were old, and it was trendously strenuous for them to use this technique.
Even a cultivator must bow to age.
The unified sword traversed several miles, its murderous intent pure, akin to the radiance of the vast universe, instantly slashing towards the head of the First Tribulation Realm demonic cultivator from the Rinsing Spirit Sect!
The Rinsing Spirit Sect cultivator clasped his hands, intending to seize this sword light.
As a result, as the sword light just arrived, it suddenly split again, one into two, two into four, slipping through his fingers, piercing into his chest and between his eyebrows.
Pure and exquisite murderous intent erupted in an instant.
The Rinsing Spirit Sect cultivator’s entire body began to flicker and change under this Destroying Army Sword Formation.
After an indiscriminate number of changes, with a loud bang, the Rinsing Spirit Sect cultivator scread miserably, his physical body suddenly bursting like the sun with ten thousand rays of light.
In truth, those weren’t ten thousand rays of light, but ten thousand tiny holes appeared on his body, from which sword light burst forth.
Boom!
In an instant, a cloud of blood mist exploded.
The four old sword sect cultivators exchanged glances and couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
“Satisfying!” Xi Xiang shouted.
Even though they were approaching the end of their lives, even though they hadn’t drawn their swords in years, they could still cross realms to slay their enemies.
Four Seventh Realm pinnacle sword cultivators, through the combined strike sword formation, successfully slew a First Tribulation Realm demonic cultivator of the Rinsing Spirit Sect!
“Let’s go back.” Xi Xiang collected the mustard seed from that Rinsing Spirit Sect cultivator and said.
…..
When Xi Xiang and the others returned to Yi River, the pursuit had ended and they were cleaning up.
The sword cultivators gathered at the Yi River Platform, seizing the ti to recover the mana expended earlier.
An old sword cultivator was running around, tallying the battle losses and the number of enemies slain.
Their Young Sect Leader stood solemnly by the side, waiting for the final report.
Finally, after the tally was complete, and the old sword cultivator reported the detailed information, Lu Qingshan stepped forward, lightly coughing.
As all eyes turned towards him, he announced in a deep voice, “In this battle at Yi River, the Sword Sect slew twelve hundred enemies, both demons and demonic cultivators.
Among them were eleven at the Eighth Realm, two hundred at the Seventh Realm, and over a thousand at the Sixth Realm.”
“The Sword Sect lost two First Tribulation Realm old sword cultivators, naly Chang Tian and Yu Le, and nine Seventh Realm sword cultivators, including Qi Yun, Qin Yu… and twenty-nine young disciples….”
Upon reaching this point, Lu Qingshan felt a significant heaviness in his heart.
The number of deaths among young disciples far exceeded that of the old sword cultivators.
The older ginger is indeed spicier.
This was not a matter of cultivation.
Since the Sword Sect was in pursuit, they had the choice of opponents.
No one would choose an opponent far stronger than themselves.
The old sword cultivators were indeed old, but whether it was killing skills, survival thods, or insight, they surpassed the young disciples greatly.
However, no matter what….
“Sword Sect’s first battle after reaching Central Spirit, a grand victory!” Lu Qingshan announced loudly.
This battle achievent did not have much impact on the overall situation of Central Spirit.
It was only an insignificant local victory.
But at the sa ti, it was a good start.
So, it is fitting to celebrate this victory!
