Chapter 724 - 568: Advent!
A few days later.Upon Qin Ming’s notification, Cold Crow Ascendant, Su Yuqing, Master Tianji, Yue Lingyan, and others all received intelligence on the movements of the demonic forces from the Blood Realm.
An ancient battle in the Human Realm is about to unfold...
Without pause, they led their disciples to address other Eyes of the Void, but the task was not easy.
During these days, Qin Ming had the cultivators of the Four Nations Alliance gather enough Shadow Splitting Stones to forge an array to break open the Eyes of the Void.
On Qi Xiaoyu’s end, Qin Ming had him guard the Elemental Five Elements Demon Suppression Array, ready to alert him at any unusual occurrence.
After all, the Six Paths Saint Ancestor of the Demon Realm was still sealed within Primordial Extreme Mountain.
Should it break free at a critical moment in the battle, it would spell a terrible disaster.
However, on this day.
As Qin Ming was instructing Hua Tianxiong and Mo Lingwei to make preparations, a purple streak shot towards Wangyue Island, arriving in an instant.
As the Escape Light dissipated, Xiao Xun’s figure was revealed, wearing a long purple dress and a purple veil over her face, looking like a Directly Cultivated Fairy. The aura of Nascent Soul Great Perfection on her seemed even more refined.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao... what brings you here?" Qin Ming said with slight surprise, his expression somewhat odd.
Xiao Xun’s eyes showed a hint of a smile: "With the impending war between the two realms, I naturally should contribute some strength. In the future, the Outer Sea might also need your assistance."
"Pavilion Master Xiao’s long journey to aid us is indeed most welcome." Qin Ming smiled slightly, welcoming her onto the island.
Both Hua Tianxiong and Mo Lingwei, upon noticing the profound and unreadable cultivation aura of Xiao Xun, were greatly shocked.
Mo Lingwei, observing the unusually close rapport between Qin Ming and Xiao Xun, was lost in many thoughts...
Within the Cyan Wood Pavilion.
Qin Ming recounted the current situation to Xiao Xun.
"Who would have thought even the Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables would be descending," Xiao Xun remarked, seeing Qin Ming’s calm demeanor, then asked, "From your expression, it seems you are prepared?"
Qin Ming chuckled lightly and said, "If the sky were to fall, the tall would surely hold it. Those Divinity Transformation Demon Venerables will naturally be dealt with by the Human Realm’s Divinity Transformation cultivators."
"We need only complete our task."
"With Fellow Daoist Qin’s divine techniques, would there be anyone below Divinity Transformation who could be your match?" Xiao Xun said slowly.
Qin Ming smiled slightly, neither confirming nor denying.
The Heaven-Devouring Rat, in the form of a white-robed youth, attended to the two, burning incense and brewing tea.
Now and then, it stole glances at them to see if there were any flirtatious exchanges...
Yet it found nothing amiss, leaving it somewhat puzzled.
’It shouldn’t be like this? Last time, I clearly saw something odd between Qin Ming and this lady.’
After a moment.
Xiao Xun told Qin Ming: "By the way, I have results from investigating that Demon Ruins you asked me to look into; it genuinely exists. However, its periphery is sealed by a special barrier, and I didn’t venture inside recklessly."
"Hmm, after matters here conclude, I’ll explore it with you," Qin Ming nodded.
Ten days later.
The entire Cultivation Realm was enveloped in a tense atmosphere.
Qin Ming stood on Wangyue Island, looking out into the distance, while the Four Nations Alliance’s troops had long been assembled, ready for battle.
"It’s about to begin."
...
Blood Realm, the sacred lands of the five major Demon Sects.
Countless demonic shadows surged, with densely packed Demonic Cultivators standing on the black stone platforms, eyes filled with bloodthirsty excitement, all gazing down into the endless abyss.
Bellowing, roaring, shouting in abandon!
Next, a vicious Late-stage Nascent Soul Demon Monarch activated a huge Array Plate Demon Artifact in his hand, then took out five immensely pure Top-Grade Demon Crystals, casting them into the grand array below.
Buzz~
Deep within the void, a sudden violent tremor arose, subsequently forming a massive black cloud vortex, gradually expanding into an enormous thousand-zhang-wide Eye of the Void, twisting and spiraling.
It seemed as if a gigantic demonic eye opened in the sky, mercilessly observing all.
The Nascent Soul Demon Monarch shouted angrily, "For the glory of the Holy Sect! Cleans Human Realm with blood!"
"Kill!!!"
Subsequently, countless large, pitch-black Demon Ships, carrying densely packed Demonic Cultivators and terrifying aura magical beasts, traversed the Eye of the Void, flooding towards the Human Realm.
Above the Spiritual Habitat Cultivation Realm.
Rumble!
Above Spirit Island, it seemed as if something had torn it open, with vast quantities of Demonic Qi pouring overwhelming from within.
Space twisted, and two massive thousand-zhang-sized Eyes of the Void appeared above the Spirit Nest Islands.
As the terrifying Demonic Qi poured down, hundreds of thousands of Demonic Cultivators and magical beasts descended suddenly, surging through the Void Passage like a tide.
The darkly looming Demon Ships shrouded the sky, leaving no room for light.
Simultaneously.
The cultivators of the Southern Wilderness Four Nations Alliance had long received orders and set up a net of inescapable traps here.
The moment the Descent Passage of the Eye of the Void opened, numerous thousand-zhang-sized Celestial Patrol Battleships revealed themselves from stealth in the void.
For this battle, the accumulated heritage of the Southern Wilderness over centuries was fully deployed.
"What’s happening?!"
"The Human Race seems to have set an ambush here, prepared for this."
The Demon Monarch in command, with unpleasant memories flooding, hesitated for a moment.
"Never mind! Just kill!!!"
Rumble!
The huge Celestial Patrol Battleships of the Four Nations, with dark Spiritual Energy Giant Cannons lighting up with terrifying power beams, instantly pierced the sky, striking down onto the densely packed demonic army.
Blood-red defensive shields sprang up over the Demon Ships, but under the concentrated bombardment, quickly tore open gaps.
Blood rain poured down, and countless Demonic Spawn and Demonic Citizens at the forefront were instantly reduced to blood mist, with no bones left behind.
The Celestial Patrol Battleships of the Four Nations formed into a line and, using the Spirit Nest Islands as a boundary, raised an insurmountable line of defense against the Demon Sect.
Within the Demon army.
"Lord Netherworld Slaughter, it seems we’ve been tricked."
"If this continues, the soldiers at the forefront will all become cannon fodder."
"It’s a bottomless pit! The Human Race’s battleship’s Spiritual Energy Cannon is so powerful that even the Golden Core Stage can’t withstand a single shot..."
The Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch of the Blood Refining Demon Sect, a rarely seen expression of anger flashed across his grim face as he gritted his teeth and said:
"Retreat all, activate the ’Power Puppet Demon Form’!"
Rumble!
As the words of the Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch fell, three colossal demon puppets each a thousand feet in size, descended from the Demonic Qi, exuding a terrifying might.
As top-tier war machines of the Demon path, each one could unleash power equivalent to a late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.
The cultivators of the Four Nations Alliance standing on the Celestial Patrol Battleship were also stunned by the massive demon puppets and changed color respectively.
The beam of the Spiritual Energy Giant Cannon hadn’t yet reached the demon puppet, already blocked by the shields it emitted, presenting almost no threat to them.
For the moment, they were at a loss...
In the distant sky above.
Qin Ming stood with hands behind his back, gazing indifferently at the changes on the battlefield. He once shattered one of the Power Puppet Demon Forms, leaving three. Just relying on the cultivators of the Four Nations Alliance was clearly not enough.
Thus, he turned his head and said to Hua Tianxiong and Mo Lingwei, "Begin."
"Yes! Lord Island Master!"
The next moment.
Hua Tianxiong and Mo Lingwei each held an Array Disc, beginning to activate the Tier Four Top-Grade Grand Array — the Milo Celestial Array!
The masterpiece crafted with the life’s blood of the Array Dao genius Qi Xiaoyu.
Numerous High-Grade Spirit Stones were filled into the Array Hub as if cost were no concern.
Suddenly, even before the Power Puppet Demon Form attacked.
Countless brilliant runes in the sky above the archipelago gathered, resonating an immense and boundless fluctuation of Spiritual Qi between the heavens, mountains, and rivers.
Immediately, profound Array Patterns lit up, erupting with red-orange fiery beams capable of annihilating a late-stage Nascent Soul, directly striking the Power Puppet Demon Form opposite!
Rumble!
In an instant, the sky changed color.
The heaven-shattering power of the Celestial Fire descended, the breathtaking might of the Tier Four Top-Level Milo Grand Array poured out completely in that moment.
Even those massive demon puppets paled before it.
In an instant, their defenses were penetrated by the red-orange divine light, subsequently ignited by the overwhelming Celestial Fire, losing their combat strength.
The Demon Monarch of the Blood Refining Demon Sect, who was initially full of aggressive vigor, was left in disbelief upon witnessing the terrifying power of the array.
"How is there such a terrifying Tier Four Top-Grade Grand Array in the Human Realm?"
Even the Celestial Fire emitted by the Milo Celestial Array caused unease in his heart.
However, the Blood Refining Demon Sect had naturally come fully prepared for this incursion.
The Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch’s gaze turned cold, a set of blood-colored flags appeared in his hand, clearly also a set of Tier Four Top-Grade Demon Path array.
With a wave of his hand, the bloody Array Flags were thrust into the void to take position, then he began to form Array Techniques, urging the Array Disc in his hand.
"Nine Nether Blood Flame Reincarnation Array, go!"
In the dim sky, blood-red pillars of light suddenly connected.
Immediately following, the Netherworld Celestial Demon Monarch in charge of the array made a grabbing motion, causing seventy-seven Golden Core Demon Cultivators to fly from the demon ship behind him, all of them lifeless and expressionless, directly crushed into masses of blood mist by his invisible hand, instantly refined and injected into the array.
Qin Ming’s gaze sharpened, realizing these Golden Core Demon Cultivators seemed to be specifically reared for this array, harboring deep resentment.
Suddenly.
On the blood-colored Array Flags, after being infused with the Lifebound Essence Blood of the Golden Core Demon Cultivators, erupted a earth-shattering Blood Evil Qi, invoking the Power of Heaven and Earth.
"These Demon path folks are truly ruthless, even turning on their own." The Heaven-Devouring Rat gripped a Black Steel Fork, eager for battle.
The Nascent Soul power within the Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch surged out, from within the dozens of Array Flags in the void, issued countless souls’ wails, a hideous sound.
The next moment.
This Tier Four Demon Array actually converted the blood energy of the countless fallen demon path cultivators moments ago into the extraordinarily venomous Nine Nether Flame, emanating an awe-inspiring might, hurtling towards the Milo Celestial Array in a clash.
Furthermore, it absorbed all those vengeful spirits into the array, forming a Grudge Barrier that covered a thousand-mile radius.
Rumble!
In an instant.
Celestial Thunder aroused Earth Fire, the atmosphere of annihilation swept across the Spirit Nest Islands, the Divine Techniques unleashed by the two Grand Arrays collided fiercely.
In the sky above, a series of dazzling light clusters erupted.
In the areas affected, no life could survive, all ruthlessly annihilated and consumed.
Xiao Xun glanced indifferently upwards, then shifted her gaze onto the Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch at the late-stage Nascent Soul.
"I’ll handle this one."
As her words fell, her figure blurred and vanished, reappearing with a Star Meteor Spirit Sword in hand.
As the sword light gleamed, starlight fell from above, forming a Beidou Seven Star trajectory, with waves of the ocean within the area surging into a terrifying tsunami, transforming into Celestial River Water pouring downward.
Every drop of Celestial River Water was filled with Star Sword Qi.
Instantly extinguishing the Nine Nether Flame, the momentum continued unabated directly at the Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch behind the array.
"Nascent Soul Great Perfection Cultivator!"
On the fierce and hideous face of the Netherworld Slaughter Demon Monarch opposite emerged a look of shock.
However, in the next moment, countless Star Sword Qi pierced through his body.
...
The spearhead of the Demon army was repeatedly frustrated, and the cultivator army of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation Realm’s Four Nations was also greatly invigorated, their morale surging!
They didn’t anticipate that True Monarch Wangyue had been prepared in advance, even converting the terrifying war machines of the Demon path into heaps of scrap metal.
Additionally, top-tier cultivators of the Human Realm at Nascent Soul Great Perfection had come to their aid.
...
