Chapter 202.
In the sky above the Cloud Mountain Marketplace.
A bronze shield and a double-dragon bronze mirror from the Artifact Heart Sect were suspended in midair, releasing a circle of green light from time to time to suppress the evil qi surging out from the depths of Cloud Mountain.
The entire Cloud Mountain Grand Formation was also cooperating with these two Sect Spiritual Treasures, constantly releasing a thunderbolt to obliterate those residual evil qi.
However, although the formation was still in operation, the Cloud Mountain Marketplace at this moment was devoid of a single sect cultivator.
Regardless of whether it was the senior members of the Weapon Heart Sect or those higher-ups who had come to aid, they didn’t dare to continue staying at Cloud Mountain at this moment, but instead chose to be on the deck of a giant immortal boat.
With complicated emotions, they stared at the changes in the landscape of Cloud Mountain.
In just a few short days.
Even though there were formations and spiritual treasures to maintain them, strange changes had already occurred in the depths of the earth that were invisible to the regular people of Cloud Mountain.
It was a strange change involving the earth’s veins.
In the near future, it wouldn’t be strange at all for this territory to transform into an evil domain like the Wood Character Domain.
“Whew!”
“Do we still have to keep waiting? Every second of time that follows is in danger of a sudden mutation!”
On the deck, the patriarch of the Artifact Heart Sect looked toward the present day principal, the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Supreme Elder …… Sword Old Man!
Sword Elder was dressed in plain gray robes, and his gray-white hair was simply coiled on his head.
As the YuanYing powerhouse with the highest cultivation nowadays, he took over the heavy responsibility of officiating right after arriving at the scene.
“The number of Evil Execution Sword Formation activated is just barely over a thousand.”
“Even if old me invokes the divine Heavenly Sword to assist in the formation, I may not be able to succeed in a single strike!”
“You guys should know that once one strike doesn’t work, the heart of the army will be shaken immediately!”
The sword old man was of high cultivation and age, but he was not stupid.
It was clear that once one strike failed, after that Weapon Heart Sect’s Supreme Elder ran out.
Regardless of whether it was the Weapon Heart Sect or the Heavenly Sword Sect or the YuanYing or Jindan powerhouses of the other great sects.
It was impossible for them to join forces to defend the enemy.
Being able to put a spiritual weapon and then throw out a big move while running.
Even if it is the fulfillment of the love of the same righteousness.
With self-sacrifice also want to get rid of the devil to defend the way this kind of thing …… is not likely to happen in them from the southern wilderness to run to the cultivation of the clan.
Even if it is the top immortal sect that class, the Great Golden Light Temple that seems to be a great mercy to save the world.
Those senior monks who went around saving people and sealing evil spirits were obviously also needed for some kind of big plan because it was profitable.
And it is them, not what evil spirits and evil gods are fearless to seal and purify.
Otherwise, where else in the Immortal Cultivation World would those evil domains and contaminated secret realms exist?
The crowd had different thoughts, weighing the gains and losses.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the sky that resounded through the land for a hundred miles around!
The cultivators on the deck were startled and looked, only to see that half of the sky covered in black clouds.
Suddenly the clouds opened up a circle of black holes.
The black hole first rushed out a scorching flame hurricane.
Immediately a small island with many traces of humanity left behind from that black hole, as if being squeezed out like toothpaste.
As soon as this small island was completely squeezed out, it immediately swooped down.
And the speed was shocking!
One moment it was still high in the sky.
In the next instant, the island crashed and smashed into the ground not far from Cloud Mountain, carrying the several immortal boats as well as the golden-armored puppets from the impact.
Boom!
Scorching hot air currents scattered with the impact of the island.
A mushroom cloud comparable to Cloud Mountain even rose into the air with it.
Even though it was not a direct hit, the entire Cloud Mountain Formation fluctuated violently with the after-effects.
The speed of array spirit stone consumption soared more than ten times at that moment.
And, the impact direction of some not coincidental Evil Execution Sword Formation was also affected.
Although the foundation cultivators were able to escape by various means.
However, there is no lack of qi practicing disciples who were killed or injured under the aftermath.
“That was …… the secret realm hosted in this airspace that was eroded by evil qi and couldn’t maintain the stability of the secret space and had to be revealed!”
The sword old man’s face was ugly as he whispered:
“See, even if you hide in a secret realm, you will be forced out!”
“Not to mention, often the secret realm itself is being eroded by the evil qi becoming unsuitable for cultivation for my kind of monk.”
Jian Lao said this.
The place that fell and smashed out a crater like place.
Dozens of differently shaped evil sneaks recovered under the explosion and began to instinctively rush towards the Cloud Mountain Marketplace.
These evil sneaks were all brought in by that Fallen Mysterious Realm after it had been contaminated over the past few thousand years.
Every head belonged to a large evil sneak at the Foundation Establishment realm.
It was easy for cultivators to defeat them, but it was troublesome to constantly strangle and then seal them.
Beside Sword Old Man, the Ten Directions Sect’s incoming reinforcement powerhouse, Ten Directions Left Envoy, sighed softly and walked out.
This was a man who looked like a Confucian middle-aged scholar.
On his face, he wore a mask that only revealed his rounded chin that waved a mysterious pattern.
He stretched out his left hand and gently pressed it forward.
A large hand composed of blue light flames suddenly appeared in the sky.
And then this giant hand pressed downwards at the same time.
A great suction force appeared at the landing place, actually sucking all the incoming evil spirits in that palm falling position.
After the palm fell, there was no explosion, just pure blue flames burning there.
The evil devils were burned to ashes by the flames, and then together with the blue flames on the ground, they were sucked into a glazed bottle that the Ten Left Envoy took out.
“Is this one of your sect’s best techniques, the Great Ten Directions All Destroying Hand?”
Behind the Left Envoy of the Ten Directions, an Elder of the Artifact Heart Sect who could see some of the mysteries of it tsked, envious and jealous in his heart.
The techniques and divine abilities he cultivated were similar to this Ten Directions Left Envoy.
Unfortunately, at the same realm, the other party was able to beat him five by one!
“My sect’s stance cannot be cultivated by anyone other than the Ten Directions Club Body possessor!”
Left Envoy of the Ten Directions shook his head with some regret:
“This is just a simplified version of a similar secret technique that the sect master has improved.”
“Over the past thousand years, there are fewer and fewer spirit body seedlings that my sect has been able to uncover, and the Ten Directions Club Destruction Body has not been seen for even a thousand years.”
“I don’t know if I will be able to see a new Saint Son come out in my lifetime, and recreate the glory of the Ten Directions Killing Body!”
Saying this, the Left Envoy of the Ten Directions shook his head slightly and stopped speaking.
After confirming that the crisis just now was lifted.
The crowd also refocused the topic on whether or not to make a move.
The Sword Elder’s side naturally agreed to hurry up and make their move while the mutation had not appeared.
After making the move, regardless of success or failure, they could just say they were leaving.
The Weapon Heart Sect’s side naturally wished to wait and see.
The longer it took, the more large sects would arrive.
Even if there are no Jindan, a few more foundation builders to enhance the power of the Evil Execution Sword Formation would be excellent, wouldn’t it?
Su Ping is sitting in the Nine Leaf Mountain, remote control of the White Crane real memory phantom, let go of part of the divine sense to understand the evil sword array.
With his current second-order formation knowledge, he could only see that the subtleties of this sword formation had already exceeded his current enlightenment and pattern.
However, this did not matter.
He didn’t seek to understand either, and only intended to memorize everything sword formation related.
Then wait until he had taken the Spirit Light Misty Fish and transformed into a supreme heavenly pride.
Then he would cite one example to make this Execution of Evil Ten Thousand Sword Formation clear, and it was not even possible to say that he would be able to realize a completely new and strengthened version of it!
Another hour passed.
Suddenly, a round of sun appeared in the red sky.
Immediately, not long after, a large golden immortal boat flew out from this sun.
Accompanying the appearance of the immortal boat, a sound of Amitabha Buddha filled the surroundings of the Cloud Mountain Marketplace.
Many Foundation Establishment and Qi Practitioner cultivators who were fighting against the Evil Qi and were getting upset.
Upon hearing the Buddhist sound, all of their faces relaxed and looked gratefully at the immortal boat in the sky.
“It’s the monks from the Great Golden Light Temple coming!”
“Great, we will definitely succeed in exterminating the evil this time!”
“With the Great Golden Light Temple’s help, this matter will be a sure thing!”
The cultivators below thought excitedly.
In the sky, on the deck, the Artifact Heart Sect Patriarch and Sword Elder, among others, greeted the high priests of the Great Golden Light Temple who floated down.
“We can’t delay any longer, hurry up and prepare the Evil Execution Formation!”
As soon as this robe-clad, fat senior monk who looked as white and chubby as he was in his forties or fifties landed, he voiced his judgment.
“Venerable Pan Long is right!”
Hearing this, Sword Elder hurriedly nodded his head in agreement and informed the rest of the people of this fat monk’s identity.
Apart from the Deadwood Presiding Officer of the Great Golden Light Temple, it was the four great venerable monks who had the highest cultivation and the most honorable status.
Venerable Pan Long was equivalent to a supreme elder in other great sects.
At the same time, he was also a Buddhist cultivator of the YuanYing Great Perfection.
In terms of dealing with evil spirits and evil gods, he was much more specialized than a sword elder of the same realm.
At once, Su Ping, who was groping for fish to study formations, as a foundation builder also received the call.
It began to play its own role up as a formation screw.
Buzzing!
Looking from high up in the sky.
One thousand and twenty-three blue points of light lit up in a hundred mile radius of the Cloud Mountain Marketplace.
Each point of light was an activated Evil Execution Sword Formation.
As the light points lit up.
It didn’t take long for a three to four meter long Evil Execution Sword with a blue shadow to take shape in the sky above the formation.
And then this Evil Punishing Sword flew up high into the sky without a sound, joining with the rest of the flying sword silhouettes.
“The Heavenly Sword …… is sheathed!”
The sword old man took a step out and flew above the top of the Cloud Mountain Marketplace mountain, his mouth chortling out instantly.
A bronze sword flew out from his chest and grew larger against the wind, transforming into a hundred meter long sword with the tip of the sword facing downwards.
On the body of the bronze sword, Immortal inscriptions surfaced on both the front and back sides.
The entire divine weapon erupted with a brilliant bright light, and was accompanied by a pressure that enveloped the entire cloud mountain like it was substantial!
“That’s the …… Heavenly Sword Sect’s Dao Protector Divine Sword, Heavenly Sword?”
“Rumor has it that the Heavenly Sword Sect’s mastery, the Heavenly Sword Technique, was comprehended from the immortal text on this divine weapon?”
On the deck, the rest of the sect’s powerhouses watched this scene with fire in their eyes.
Especially those sect cultivators who couldn’t come into contact with top-grade spiritual treasures, seeing the might of the divine weapon so terrifying, they almost had their Dao shaken.
“……”
The sword old man pinched out his sword technique, and under the unity of the human sword, his divine sense instantly drew up to the limit of what he could withstand.
And with that, he saw the Weapon Heart Sect’s Supreme Elder who was hiding in his retreat cave deep within Cloud Mountain.
Elder Wareheart!
Elder Sword had seen this old rival before.
When he was in the Southern Wasteland, they hadn’t rarely negotiated across the air for the sake of the sect’s interests.
Only, now that they met again, Jian Lao had already realized that this old opponent had long since ceased to possess a humanoid appearance.
He …… or rather its entire person was transformed into a puddle of black soft mud, covering the floor and walls of the cave, constantly wriggling.
It seems to have sensed the sword old man s divine sense.
This trip of sludge right in the middle of the position emerged a head with simple five senses made of sludge, looking back at it.
In the blink of an eye.
Jian Lao withdrew his divine sense as if he was frightened.
In his mind, however, there was still more of that Weapon Heart Elder’s crazy words.
As well as …… a truth.
A truth that made this YuanYing old monster’s Dao heart shatter and worship at the feet of the Evil God!
“Ah ah ah!”
“Don’t mess with my sword heart!”
“Heavenly Sword Execution of Evil, All Swords in One!”
The sword old man’s body erupted with pure white sword qi, and under the random movement of his heart.
Thousands of evil-exorcising swords appeared in front of his eyes and then the thousands of swords united into a hundreds of meters long evil-exorcising great sword after.
“Evil demons and foreigners, all cut!”
The sword old man waved his hand and pointed at the cloud mountain below.
At once!
After the Bronze Heavenly Sword and that Evil Punishing Sword Shadow also merged into one, it transformed into a sword awn that was even more dazzling than the sun.
The sword directly cleaved into the cloud mountain, directly breaking through the mountain and hitting that cave.
The fluctuation of power generated by this sword far exceeded the previous island fall.
What was more crucial was this.
With the sword old man utilizing his divine weapon, he swung this sword with all his might at the same time.
In all directions, as long as they were Jindan or above cultivators, they no longer skimped on their mana, and executed killing moves that had been prepared long ago, transforming into rays of light of different colors, and smashing them over like a torrential downpour.
It gave Su Ping, who was watching from the periphery, a feeling of witnessing the cultivator’s version of a saturation strike.
It was just that the killing moves of the cultivators obviously had no staying power.
The combined attack only lasted for two or three breaths before coming to a halt.
Hundreds of spirit weapons flew back from the disappearing cloud mountain.
On the side of the sword old man, it was also as if he had instantly moved, and the bronze heavenly sword appeared.
“Winning …… winning?”
“With such a combined attack, so many Jindan and YuanYing powerhouses striking out, and with the oversized formation, the other party shouldn’t be able to stop it even if it’s the Weapon Heart Sect’s Supreme Elder, right?”
The peripheral Foundation Establishment cultivators muttered in whispers, all feeling that no one would be able to survive under a combined attack like the one they had just received.
Su Ping, however, had a slight movement in his heart, flashing a certain sense of danger.
Thud!
In the blink of an eye, on Su Ping’s Memory Illusion’s body, the Punish Evil and Ward off Evil Light flashed, blocking a drop of sludge that had assaulted him from the ground.
Only, this attack was not just directed at Su Ping Memory Illusion.
Su Ping immediately realized that the ten or so Qi Practicing Cultivators in his spell formation were also attacked by the silt.
And then in the blink of an eye, their bodies were entangled in evil qi, and they turned into a pool of silt in front of Su Ping’s eyes as they cried out in pain!
Ah!
At the same time, there were screams coming from all around.
Obviously, the scope of the attack was large.
It most likely covered the entire battlefield!
Although it was only a memory illusion.
Su Ping still wanted to live a little longer.
Thus, with little hesitation, Su Ping began to maneuver the Memory Illusion to retreat and run.
During this time, he also encountered one or two drops of sludge that rose up to sneak attack.
However, it was fortunate that the Evil Expelling Blessing had been working, blocking these sneak attacks.
During this period, Su Ping passed by and saw a Foundation Establishment cultivator, who immediately cut off his right leg on the spot after his right leg was attacked.
Just not waiting for this cultivator to breathe a sigh of relief, the severed right leg transformed into a puppy-sized silt hopper that directly pounced on his face.
“Under the Heavenly Sword, the other party should not have a single bit left!”
“How could that be!”
The sword old man watched this scene, under the vibration of his heart and mind.
In his hands, he was not slow, continuously releasing sword qi to disperse the molding sludge that emerged from below.
The surrounding great cultivators also cast their own means, trying to prevent the situation from continuing to deteriorate.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
Venerable Pan Long sat on top of the lotus platform, and a three-headed, six-armed Vajra Fury Bodhisattva Dharma image of at least a thousand meters appeared behind him.
As soon as the dharma image appeared, the Buddha’s light shone brightly.
But it made those sludge action slowed down a few points, gave the subsequent foundation builders a chance to survive.
As for the Qi Practicing Cultivators …… at the beginning they had all been turned into sludge.
“Jie Jie Jie!”
The mountain peaks had disappeared, leaving only the large pit on the ground, more and more ebony silt gushed out.
Laughing sounds also came out from the silt:
“Sword Elder, Venerable Granosaurus, do you guys think that the old man who seeks to obtain the True Dharma will be so easily trapped by your formations and then wait to be destroyed by your gods and souls?”
“You guys don’t even know what great power and great ease the truly great existences have!”
“Becoming a part of Him and gaining His pity is the only way out for cultivators like us!”
“Even before you guys set up the array, I had already fused with the earth veins of this region.”
“The …… that you guys have worked so hard to exterminate is nothing more than a fleshly skin in the old monument area!”
“Without that skin, it’s just the right time for the old immortal to understand more about the mystery and pleasure of being a higher creature!”
In the large pit where Yun Shan was originally located, the silt turned into a pool of water, which then turned into a small lake.
After that, from the lake emerged a black silt giant at least a thousand meters tall roaring in the sky.
Su Ping watched from afar and only saw that it was accompanied by a sound of Amitabha Buddha and the sound of evil extermination.
There was a golden light Bodhisattva Dharma phase and that dark black giant collided together.
The earth continued to crack and sink under the aftershocks of this impact.
Ten meters, a hundred meters …… kilometers!
The hundred-mile radius of Cloud Mountain, Herculeanly, gradually changed its topography, transforming from a mountainous region to a plain, and then from a plain to a large basin.
Finally, when the sky and earth were violently blown down by a ball of white light, all of a sudden after restoring calm.
Su Ping realized that the far side had transformed into a stepped large basin valley.
The deepest part, that was where the two sides were fighting.
It had long since penetrated into the earth to a depth of at least three to four thousand meters.
And in that deep underground location.
The black giant had already turned into a puddle of mud, and was immediately burned clean by the blue flames called out by the Ten Left Ambassadors.
After that, looking at the battlefield that seemed to be clean.
The YuanYing powerhouses of the various sects and factions that had struck out were all listening to the heartbeat in the ground with bad faces, their expressions becoming more and more grave.
“It …… didn t lie, it really fused with the earth veins.”
“Without destroying the earth veins of this place, we will be able to kill it a hundred times and it will be able to recover as before!”
“This place is not suitable to stay for a long time, before we think of a way to destroy the earth vein, it’s better for us to withdraw first!”
An elder from the Heavenly Sword Sect was the first to open his mouth at Sword Elder’s gesture, breaking the calm.
At once, the rest who saw the problem echoed.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
Venerable Pan Long also sighed and turned around to fly back to the immortal boat.
Instantly, a ray of light flew out of this deep pit to fall into their respective Immortal Boats.
Some of the peripheral foundations saw this scene, along with the fact that the evil aura around them had disappeared, and thought it was a success, and were about to say something.
Suddenly!
The earth fluctuated as if it had tumbled.
Immediately following, a huge black hand broke through the ground of the deep pit and grabbed into the sky!
This giant hand was no less than ten thousand meters, and not only did it reach out from the deep pit.
It also directly opened its palm in a vain attempt to grip the Immortal Boat and the crowd of cultivators that were preparing to escape!
