The epic battle of good and evil began at Dragon City Pass, with its flas raging for over a month. Following the Azure Dragon's fall at Xie Qingyun's sword, many changes began to unfold.
These changes, while perhaps inevitable in the eyes of others, were significant.
...
On the battlefield towards the east of Dragon City Pass, covered by the tail flow of Spirit Sea Tide, the human coalition of cultivators was on the verge of collapse, desperately stalling the advance of the Demon Race.
Once they collapsed, it would be an avalanche that could not be stopped.
......
The Long Night Mountains, the majestic peaks of Central Spirit, stretched along its central line, dividing east and west.
From the heights of Heaven's Vault, the Long Night Mountains appeared as a clear demarcation line, like a boundary between good and evil, a division of yin and yang.
Cultivators of Central Spirit built a pass here, pooling the entire strength and wealth of Central Spirit to quickly forge an impregnable stronghold, the Heart City.
The 'Heart' in Heart City refers to the Heart Demon.
The unique terrain of the Long Night Mountains resembled a lotus flower, narrowing from base to peak, layered like a lotus terrace, divided into nine layers.
Central Spirit cultivators harnessed this terrain to construct an invincible great formation, the Central Spirit Formation, over the entire Long Night Mountains.
The Central Spirit Formation tapped into the spirit veins of the Long Night Mountains and the spiritual energy of the Nine Heavens, gathering the power of the mountains and the breath of the rivers, a strength seemingly infinite.
Once activated, the Central Spirit Formation connected all nine layers of the 'Lotus Terrace,' rging the entire Long Night Mountains into one entity.
All damage borne by the formation could spread from the mountain base, dispersing across the whole mountain range.
In essence, unless one could instantly unleash a force to destroy the Long Night Mountains, the Central Spirit Formation was as unbreakable as tal and stone.
Of course, enemies could choose to destroy the formation points.
No matter how powerful a formation is, if its formation point is breached, it will collapse.
However, the cultivators who constructed the Central Spirit Formation considered this.
Their solution was simple.
They placed the core formation point of the Central Spirit Formation at the heart of the lotus on the ninth layer of the Lotus Terrace.
Here lies Heart City as well.....
Though the Central Spirit Formation wasn't as powerful as the Bright Moon Formation set by the Ancestral Taoist, excelling in both offense and defense,
this formation, a masterpiece of Central Spirit cultivators' ingenuity, took full advantage of the terrain. It was so artfully crafted that in the entire history of the Human Race, few could compare to it.
......
On the city walls of Heart City atop the Long Night Mountains, Situ, who oversaw the construction of the Central Spirit Formation, gazed silently beyond the mountains.
He had been standing here for an unknowable length of ti.
He was waiting.
Waiting for the return of the Central Spirit cultivator coalition from the front lines.
Without relying on Heart City, the Central Spirit cultivator coalition could never withstand the demon army.
At the sa ti, Heart City could never hold the Long Night Mountains against the massive demon army without this group of Central Spirit cultivators.
The Spirit Sea Tide severed the teleportation arrays and all communication.
Situ could not know the current status of the human cultivator coalition amidst the Spirit Sea Tide.
But he knew that the situation was undoubtedly grim.
And as ti passed, hope grew even dimr.
For the power of good and evil had never been on the sa level.
....
It was unknown how long ti passed.
An icy wind blew through.
From the vast sky, a human cultivator flew towards them.
This cultivator appeared exceedingly exhausted, his face ashen pale and cheeks gaunt, his robe seemingly shredded by blades, hanging in tatters.
As he flew towards the Long Night Mountains, his body swayed, nearly plumting from the sky several tis, illustrating his fatigue.
Yet, he continued, finally reaching the Long Night Mountains.
He saw the new mighty pass built by the strength of all Central Spirit, Heart City.
And thus, he arduously pulled the corners of his mouth, forcing a smile.
"Who goes there?" Situ called out to him, his voice hoarse.
His voice was hoarse purely from the uncontrollable excitent.
Situ had already guessed the visitor's identity, but without confirmation from the visitor's mouth, he couldn't be sure, fearing all before him was a bubble, one prick away from bursting.
The human cultivator did not answer at once; instead, he took out a fireworks-like object from his mustard seed space, infusing it with spiritual power.
Whoosh!
Like lighting a fuse, the object released rolling spiritual power smoke signals.
The smoke ascended, releasing a unique wave in all directions.
Then, the exhausted cultivator shouted a single sentence to Situ, "I am Zhang San, scout from Tigerhead City!"
After saying this, this scout, dispatched by the Central Spirit cultivator coalition and the first to arrive at the Long Night Mountains, could no longer sustain himself and fell from the sky.
Situ quickly flew up and caught the falling Zhang San in mid-air.
He extended his divine sense to assess the condition of this human cultivator and abruptly found Zhang San's dantian completely parched.
Utterly dried up, with not a drop of Elent Force to be found.
It was unimaginable how Zhang San had managed, through sheer determination, to persist in such a state to reach the Long Night Mountains and release the spiritual power signal.
Situ solemnly thanked this ordinary Tigerhead City cultivator, "You worked hard."
To break through the Spirit Sea Tide and reach the Long Night Mountains was certainly not thanks to Zhang San alone.
This achievent belonged to the countless fearless cultivators who, amidst the space-tearing Spirit Sea Tide tail flow, sought a way out, even at the cost of exploring with their physical bodies.
