The Profundity Carving shield like its name, was truly profound.
It was a tool that could be expanded modularly. The entire tool was posed of several palm sized shields like what the Sky Precepts sect members had used. Each of the shields had profound runes carved on them that were different from Dao script.
These runes were said to have been originally created by a great existence in the immortal world. They could bine to grow in power and had many functions.
The Profoundity Carving Shield that could be seen right now was barely in its first form. But even in its first form, it was at the pseudo immortal tool. And its maximum potential was said to be legendary, being able to even stop the falling skies!
Though letting it reach that level was not an easy task and even if the Sky Precepts sect was the top sect in the Xiaofan world and had a ton of resources, it was not possible for them to do so.
Simply letting it reach the first level had taken them several thousand years after all.
Jing Wei knew about the Profundity Carving shield because the Jing clan had once been asked to take a look at the refinement method. The Sky precepts sect had missioned them to help a long time ago.
This was long before Jing Wei was even born and the current conflicts were nonexistent, with the relationship between the Sky Precepts Sect and the Jing clan being genial.
But despite the assistance of the then Jing clan, they didn't have much success. Due to the pletely different runes being used in it, the Jing clan had no basis to work on other than to start learning them from scratch.
Many things happened back then and the exact series of events were unknown, but at a certain point the collaboration had simply stooped and the sect had put the Profundity Carving Shield on the back burner.
The appearance of it was quite surprising to Jing Wei and if this was during the normal time, he would have liked to take a closer look at it.
In fact, seeing the hybrid posite nature of the shield, Jing Wei was sure that the War Castle Jing itself might have taken some inspiration from it. After all, War Castle Jing was a posite spirit tool as well and was also at the pseudo immortal grade.
Regardless of the origins of the profundity carving shield, now that it had appeared, the battle had bee a lot more stable for them.
Jing Wei used his immortal grade sword and continued to strike the Ancestral Bell, while the Profundity Carving Shield blocked the attacks that came from it. The bination of a sword and shield was as old as history and certainly proved its worth here.
Still, a stalemate was achieved here, as neither party could gain an advantage right away.
With the strongest parties occupied, the rest of the alliance was now free to act on their own and battle the foes.
Even among the battlefield, several groups had formed. Each of these groups were none other than the different powers that posed the alliance. This included the top sects, the subordinates and middle grade sects, the clans of the Fenlong kingdom, the Hong Lin Kingdom, the mercenary union and servant independent powers.
Each of these groups displayed their unique powers and abilities against the foes.
The Mu clan unleashed their puppets that scuttled through the battlefield, weaving around enemies and attacking them. There were many kinds of puppets too, with some looking like boxes that had legs attached to them and some that were shaped like various animals.
The strongest among them though was none other than the large puppet being controlled by none other than Mu Tao, the current head of the Mu clan. The boy that Lin Mu had met a long time ago was no longer naive and had bee a young man at the Peak of the Nascent soul realm.
But even if he was just at the Peak of the nascent soul realm, his capabilities extended beyond that. He controlled a large puppet that had three heads, and six arms. Its legs were like that of a monkey while several weapons were held in its arms.
It battled across the battlefield and contended against the Dao Shell realm experts of the northern tribe.
And this wasn't just Mu Tao either. Almost all experts of the Mu clan could fight above their realm using their puppets.
But this left their bodies vulnerable, which were then protected by another group. This was none other than the Fen clan, which had awakened its innate bloodline and gained greater power.
They defended the Mu clan while also attacking the Northern Tribes with Miss Fen, the head of the Fen clan taking the lead.
She herself was also at the Peak of the Nascent soul realm and was actually very close to the Dao Shell realm. But when adding the power of her bloodline, she could contend with the Dao Shell realm cultivators as well.
Then there was King Hong who had been battling to his heart's desire. The Undaunted Ember Physique was something that not only changed the body of a person, but also their personality.
It turned them dauntless and made them a warrior that would never back down. Thus, King Hong was like a shark in the ocean, killing and fighting freely.
Wu Hei too fought, unleashing all of his skills that had been hidden for long. The inheritance of the Taiji Celestial was profound and mysterious, and Wu Hei had obtained a part of it.
Its effects were impressive, with each of his fists blasting back foes. They could even reflect attacks to a certain extent, and he could infuse his energy into weapons as well.
Jiao Fang had also joined back after recovering a bit and used a myriad of skills, some that he had obtained himself, while some that originated from the northern tribes themselves, which greatly confused the people of the tribes.
