Chapter 909: Falling Stars, Thunderous Collapse, and Reunion in the Shelter
Chapter 909: Falling Stars, Thunderous Collapse, and Reunion in the Shelter
February 9, 2025
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The once melodious bell now sounded like a death knell, echoing throughout the Mingyuan Sanctuary.
All the Mingyuan cultivators received the notification and rushed towards Mount Yanfu without hesitation.
Even in Shangyou Xiancheng, outside the Mingyuan Sanctuary, the formations were activated, ready to engage in battle at any moment.
Inside the Dan Sheng Paradise.
The water mirrors displayed blurry scenes from various locations.
Countless cultivators flew like clouds, and treasures were displayed without restraint, exuding an intense killing aura.
On the ground, lifeless puppets marched forward, and gigantic beasts over a thousand feet tall roared and charged.
Luo Lingxi stared at this scene in a daze, his young mind deeply shocked.
Is this the fantastical world of cultivation?
Although he had grown up in the Luo Tian Sect, Sima Huiniang knew that her son might not be able to cultivate in the future, so she intentionally shielded him from this information.
Occasionally, when outsiders visited, they would descend from the Mota Mountain and fly away.
The places he usually went to were mostly bustling markets where ordinary people gathered.
Later, as Luo Chen left the Mota Mountain, he witnessed many cultivators soaring through the clouds and mist, flying across mountains and seas, but these sightings were also infrequent.
Only at this moment!
The vast and magnificent sight of countless cultivators moving together deeply impressed him.
If he couldn't cultivate, it would be a waste of this human life!
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his palm and instinctively looked up at the woman beside him.
"Elder Sister Ruoli?"
Ye Ruoli suddenly released her grip, panting heavily, "Sorry, Lingxi, it's my fault for hurting you."
Luo Lingxi shook his head, "It's okay, I know you're worried about the sect's safety."
Ye Ruoli bit her red lips and looked at the white-robed man sitting cross-legged in front of her.
He wore the Xue Shuang Yi bestowed by the Old Ancestor, bearing the title of the Dan Sheng Hall Master. According to rumors, he also possessed the ability to reach the heavens. At this critical moment, wouldn't he go out and lend a hand to the Mingyuan Sect?
Luo Chen was unaware of anything, but his breathing grew heavier.
Through his borrowed vertical pupils, he clearly saw the intense flow of Yuan Qi.
The battle within the Youming Yellow Spring Map had clearly reached its most intense stage.
The Ancient Phoenix entered this map and eventually perished, his body and Dao extinguished.
What about Qixia Yuanjun?
The answer was...
...
A piercing sound tore through the air, drowning out the countless battle cries and the echoing bell.
In everyone's astonishment, the treasure map, which stretched for tens of thousands of miles and flowed with the rolling yellow spring, shattered into pieces.
A strand of golden flame, full of vitality, drilled out.
Then, the spark of fire instantly ignited the entire field!
In the blink of an eye, the single strand became countless, and the flames raged like a prairie fire, surging upwards in a frenzy, reversing the endless yellow spring.
At the end of the yellow spring, the three Old Ancestors were terrified, each unleashing their ultimate techniques.
Boom!
In the intense collision, the Youming Yellow Spring Map was completely shattered.
This supreme treasure, which had established great merits in ancient times and in the present, was burned to ashes by the Ancient Phoenix.
The spirit treasure's master, He Ze Old Ancestor, was mentally connected to it and suffered the most severe injuries. He couldn't suppress his wounds and spat out bright red blood.
The three Old Ancestors didn't hesitate and scattered to escape.
Qixia Yuanjun watched this scene with a cold smile and pursued the severely injured He Ze Old Ancestor.
Just then, starlight rained down from above.
Qixia Yuanjun was unaware, bathing in the starlight. The starlight attacks, which contained powerful killing intent, posed no threat to her, and even her protective energy shield couldn't break through.
"Qinghe, is this the Zhou Tian Tu Shen Grand Formation you captured?"
Qixia Yuanjun sneered, stretching out her five fingers towards the sky and gently clenching them.
"How dare you stand above me!"
The next moment, starlight fell like rain.
Everywhere, flames blazed fiercely, as if meteors were falling from the sky.
The thirty-six Yuan Spirit Infant cultivators who formed the formation felt the scorching heat, and their flesh and blood gradually vanished.
Some decisively abandoned their physical bodies and escaped as Yuan Spirit Infants.
However, the bizarre golden flames clung to the Yuan Spirit Infants like bone-eating worms.
"Ah!"
"I don't want to die!"
"Old Ancestor, save me!"
In the Dan Sheng Paradise.
A piercing scream escaped someone's lips.
"Clan Leader!"
It was Ye Ruoli.
She watched as her clan leader, Ye Lingtian, also known as the Lingtian City Lord, the person most familiar to Luo Chen, was enveloped by the Nirvana Holy Fire.
Luo Chen hissed, "Quiet!"
At this moment, he panted heavily, his eyes fixed on the outside world.
Unlike the Prosperity and Decay Divine Fire, which only targeted physical bodies, the Nirvana Holy Fire clearly had a powerful offensive effect on the Yuan Spirit Infants and souls of cultivators.
This discovery excited him inexplicably.
It also confirmed what he had learned and understood in the past.
The Prosperity and Decay Divine Fire was essentially a Timber Attribute Law, containing the path of life and death through the cycle of reincarnation.
Only with an immortal soul could one maintain eternal vitality.
However, the Nirvana Holy Fire was different. From the very beginning, it was about seeking life through death and resurrection.
Especially during the Nine Tribulations and Three Nirvana, both the physical body's Nirvana and the soul's Nirvana wandered on the extreme edge of life and death.
In other words, if Luo Chen grasped the essence of it, he might also be able to use the Nirvana Holy Fire to attack enemies' souls!
As for the Lingtian City Lord, who was currently in a difficult situation outside and had a decent relationship with him, Luo Chen could only express his helplessness.
The Battle of Hua Shen was never meant for Yuan Ying cultivators to interfere.
The previous success against Qing He Xian was merely an isolated case.
The opponent, a recent Hua Shen cultivator, had just grasped the Wood Essence, which was completely suppressed, resulting in a sweeping victory.
But an isolated case is just that, how can it be completely emulated?
Having entered this situation, everyone should have anticipated this outcome.
But!
Anticipation is one thing, whether one can accept this result is another matter.
Yu Ming Old Ancestor, who had already escaped, suddenly turned around, his eyes gleaming with pain.
Those were the core strengths of the Abyss Sect, the future of the sect! How could he bear to watch them die before his eyes?
With a swift pull of his hands,
"Wind, come!"
A mighty gust of wind emerged from the depths of Qing Ming.
A wisp of faint wind rose from the ground.
And from his mouth, he exhaled a strand of blood wind.
Three different types of wind merged in the blink of an eye, transforming into a unique blood-colored totem.
From a distance, it resembled a demonic beast, or perhaps an odd bird.
This strange bird swallowed Yu Ming Old Ancestor whole and then charged towards Qixia Yuanjun.
Facing this existence, Qixia Yuanjun raised an eyebrow.
"Is this the ancient beast that once controlled the power of wind, the Beast of Gale?"
"What a pity!"
"Even if the Beast of Gale were to be revived, it would only be fit to serve under my seat! Moreover, it's just a single divine ability!"
Qixia Yuanjun chuckled lightly and approached.
Amidst the golden light, immense power surged forth, and a divine bird seemed to spread its wings.
The overwhelming power swept across the sky,
Two towering figures, with all their might, clashed, proving that the brave win in narrow paths.
Boom!
The phoenix and the strange bird collided in an instant, engaging in the simplest and purest clash.
Then, they separated.
The fire grew stronger, while the wind weakened by a third.
In terms of foundation, Yu Ming Old Ancestor was ultimately no match for Qixia Yuanjun.
Just then, from the nine heavens, thunder rumbled.
"Old Ancestor, lend me your strength!"
Hidden in the shadows, He Ze Old Ancestor slowly emerged, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and pointed at the sky above Qixia Yuanjun.
"Rainfall!"
A torrential downpour poured down.
Qixia Yuanjun, within the rain, seemed to have her Mantle of Power corroded, emitting sizzling white mist.
Not only that, even her speed seemed to be hindered by the rain, slowing down significantly.
At this moment, thunder rumbled from the Thunder Pool.
Leidaozi, holding a black giant sword, drew the sky's thunder, transforming into a bolt of lightning that descended.
This move, after inheriting the essence of the great power of the White Night's Thunder Principle, was his most powerful move.
Even if he were to achieve the Hua Shen stage in the future, it would be difficult to execute.
This move, in particular, utilized the power of the Abyss Sect's defensive formation, which had been operating for three thousand years.
Especially a thousand years ago, when the White Night's Great Power added his most prized divine ability, the 'Nine Heavens Universal Thunder Technique,' to continuously infuse thunder power into it day and night.
Three thousand years of power, a thousand years of accumulated thunder, finally formed a Thunder Pool, and thus, Leidaozi's stunning sword strike was born.
Just a flash.
When Leidaozi reappeared, he was already within three feet of the red-clothed woman.
The black giant sword, with unstoppable force, pierced through the Mantle of Power, which only a Hua Shen Great Power could break.
Hidden within the thunder, Leidaozi's expression was resolute, driving his immense power to pierce the Mantle of Power and kill this demonic phoenix.
Not a single mistake, not a single hesitation, not a single change, not a single movement, not a single word, not a single glance!
However, it was only at this moment that he realized why the Zhou Tian Tu Shen Grand Formation was ineffective against this person.
"How could such an existence exist in this world?"
Qixia Yuanjun stared at the sword tip pointing at her forehead, her face filled with displeasure.
The firelight surged and clashed with the vast thunder, constantly colliding.
"You're seeking death, youngster!"
"Not enough!" Leidaozi's face twisted in rage, "Still not enough!"
Three thousand years of power!
A thousand years of accumulated thunder!
Still not enough!
Not to mention his six hundred years of cultivation!
With a thought, the Yuan Ying in his Purple Mansion began to tremble violently and then instantly collapsed.
It transformed into the most pure power, merging with the thunder giant sword.
Puff!
A crisp sound rang out, and the sword tip finally pierced Qixia Yuanjun's Mantle of Power.
However, it ended there.
The woman flicked her finger at the dazzling sword tip.
Ding!
A crisp sound echoed, and the sword tip shattered.
The shattering spread, and the black giant sword began to crack inch by inch, eventually falling onto Leidaozi.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
His physical body was torn apart, his Yuan Ying had already collapsed, and only a wisp of his soul drifted between heaven and earth.
"Old Ancestor, I've done my best."
That wisp of soul, in the blink of an eye, was enveloped by a raindrop, about to escape.
However, Qixia Yuanjun raised her eyebrows.
"He Ze, you who hide your head and show your tail, where do you think you're going?"
She raised her hands, and a torrent of golden flames surged forth.
Following the torrential rain, they chased after He Ze Old Ancestor in the opposite direction.
During this process, the raindrop that encased Lei Daozi's soul had already transformed into steam, dissipating into the heavens and earth.
The Yuan Spirit Infant shattered, the body disintegrated, and the soul scattered.
The once-unparalleled Mingyuan Lei Daozi Zhang Che, who dominated Dong Hu, met his end, his cultivation and body destroyed.
Yu Ming Zun Zhe, transformed into a Storm Beast, watched this scene, his heart as cold as ashes.
"Qixia Yuanjun, do you really intend to exterminate everyone?"
Qixia Yuanjun let out a cold laugh, "Blame yourselves for provoking me. Today, I will leave no one alive!"
"What a ruthless extermination!"
Yu Ming Zun Zhe took a deep breath, his face revealing the same resolute expression as Lei Daozi.
"Then let's fight!"
Even if he died, he would not let the other party off easily.
The Storm Beast, enveloped in endless raging winds, charged towards Qixia Yuanjun.
The two sides engaged in another intense battle.
The immeasurable vastness of heaven and earth's energy was attracted, each representing the limits of speed, and as they fought madly, the battlefield began to uncontrollably expand.
The vast Mingyuan Sanctuary was as vast as eight or nine Yu Ding Domains.
However, under the battle of the two powerful beings, it was as if they had instantly arrived at a small arena.
Wherever they passed, doomsday seemed to descend.
Regardless of how solid the defensive formations constructed by the various powers within the Mingyuan Sect were, at this moment, they were as fragile as tofu, shattering with the slightest touch.
Under the scorching flames and raging winds, countless lives turned to ashes and scattered with the wind.
During this process, from time to time, the powerful and profound forces of the Mingyuan Sect would join the battle, attempting to aid their Sect Master, Yu Ming Zun Zhe.
However, Qixia Yuanjun's strength and ferocity were completely unreasonable.
No matter what existence approached her, they would be instantly annihilated.
The golden Nirvana Holy Fire transformed into a terrifying flame that devoured everything.
Yet, Luo Chen couldn't see any of this.
The reason was that when the Sect Master of Mingyuan, Yu Ming Zun Zhe, and Qixia Yuanjun were fighting face-to-face, the massive heaven and earth energy had already destroyed the spiritual eye that Luo Chen had set up outside.
At this moment, he could only anxiously and futilely wait inside the Dan Sheng Paradise.
He could sense the omnipresence of the golden flames.
Not to mention a ten-thousand-mile radius!
As long as Qixia Yuanjun's cultivation was sufficient, even a hundred thousand miles or a million miles would be engulfed in a sea of fire.
It was only at this moment that he finally understood why the three great ancestors of the Mingyuan Sect were so concerned about this Dan Sheng Paradise.
This was not only the birthplace of Mount Yanfu's origin, with the potential to become a fifth-tier spiritual vein in the future.
It was also a sanctuary!
It could withstand heavenly tribulations, escape earthly disasters, and preserve a spark of life for the Mingyuan Sect in the face of powerful external enemies.
"So, this is the true meaning of a blessed land and heavenly cave."
Luo Chen sighed, feeling incredibly fortunate.
If he hadn't gained control of this place, his fate might have been the same as that of Lingtian City Lord and the others!
A silent and untraceable death.
Although Lei Daozi's death was miserable, it was at least a valiant one.
But soon, he realized something was wrong.
The blessed land was connected to the Dan Sheng Temple, and the entrance gate was open!
It was impossible for Qixia Yuanjun, with her strength, to not notice this place.
Indeed, after half a day's effort, Luo Chen sensed a scorching power approaching.
Hiss!
Inside the blessed land, a blade of grass ignited on its own.
A golden flame slowly rose.
Luo Chen's face tightened, and he immediately protected Luo Lingxi and Ye Ruoli behind him.
The golden flame seemed contagious, and as soon as it invaded the Dan Sheng Paradise, it spread like wildfire.
"This is unacceptable; otherwise, we'll lose our refuge."
Luo Chen's heart stirred, and he summoned his own Nirvana Holy Fire.
At this moment, the Nirvana Holy Fire was still relatively weak, but with Luo Chen's cultivation, it formed a ring of fire, enclosing the three of them.
The encroaching Nirvana Holy Fire, upon encountering this ring of fire, seemed to recognize a kin, and indeed, it stopped eroding.
Seeing this, Luo Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Indeed!"
"Since Qixia Yuanjun used me as a guide to find Qinghe Xian's location, she won't have much ill intent towards me."
"At least, in this battle, she won't harm me."
Just as Luo Chen was thinking this, a heavy thud suddenly reverberated through the blessed land.
The vast rain curtain smashed down, forcing open a place where the Nirvana Holy Fire was burning.
An aged figure lay on the ground, their life hanging by a thread.
Luo Chen looked into the distance and saw the old man holding an order token, with a faint breath still lingering.
"It's He Ze Old Ancestor!" Ye Ruoli exclaimed in delight and was about to rush out to save the old ancestor.
However, her steps couldn't move forward.
Luo Chen's powerful spiritual pressure was holding her down.
"The Dan Sheng Temple Master?"
Ye Ruoli was puzzled and looked at Luo Chen with a mix of confusion and anxiety.
Luo Chen shook his head, his gaze fixed on the figure like a burning torch.
He Ze Old Ancestor struggled to stand up, his cloudy eyes meeting Luo Chen's, also staring at the golden ring of fire.
