Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 439 You are the Seed, War Beyond the Realm

A terrifying surge of power is spreading.

The rules of heaven and earth in that world were intertwined in the eyes of Li Changsheng, Mo Yi and others, but were submerged by a vast expanse of starlight, and the entire world was washed away into a chaotic landscape.

Countless strange energies, like the waves of an endless ocean, surged continuously from that world.

Resentment, corpse energy, death energy.

Various essences of heaven and earth, fragments of laws, and cracks in the shattered world.

Everything was presented to Li Changsheng, Mo Yi, and the others.

"Haha, you ants of the mortal world, no matter how sharp your sword or how strong your martial arts, how long can you fight? You will eventually run out of true energy, deplete your magic power, and exhaust your life force."

"This will be your burial place."

"Then the human world behind you is our paradise!"

The arrogant and rampant shouts, even across the world, clearly reached the ears of Li Changsheng, Mo Yi, and the others, causing them to involuntarily frown.

"I'll go help him."

With a thought, Mo Yi summoned a sword that flew from the mountainside of Penglai Immortal Island, while a huge illusory image of the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) appeared beneath his feet, covering a radius of thousands of feet.

With the mind opened, the mysteries of the Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces are revealed.

"The Eight Trigrams Heart Gate—in the past two hundred years, only you, Mo Yi, have reached this level. However, I didn't know you could also wield a sword." Li Changsheng's eyes showed considerable surprise. Mo Yi entered the Finger Profound Realm at the age of nine and stepped into the Celestial Realm in her early twenties. Yet, she had never made a name for herself in the martial world, and had few real combat experiences. Even he was unaware that Mo Yi had hidden this skill.

"He does not use a sword, but when the extraterrestrial immortals from the Eastern Realm invaded last time, Mo Yi glimpsed three-tenths of the essence of swordsmanship and knocked the sword out of the immortal's hand. He then practiced it for a period of time."

"Although his swordsmanship cannot be compared with Mr. Li's, I think he has surpassed ninety percent of the swordsmen in the world."

"This is what Qingfeng Daoren explained from the side."

His face was full of pride.

“The dangers beyond this realm are immense, and our fates are uncertain. I will accompany you on this journey.” Li Changsheng smiled. At the same time, on the Kunlun Mountains of the Northern Li Glacier, the Iron Horse Ice River trembled, and a broken sword that had been reforged by the Famous Sword Manor also emitted a sword cry.

"Since you have such an interest, this old Taoist priest shall gladly accompany you."

As they were speaking, Qingfeng Daoist suddenly blocked Mo Yi's way of helping her: "But you can't go. The Eastern Territory has been torn apart by that Ming emperor, and the invasion of those extraterrestrial immortals is inevitable. If we all leave... or even die in the extraterrestrial world, someone needs to protect the people of the world."

"That person is you... Mo Yi!"

Qingfeng Daoist's expression was very serious and solemn. Although the scenery of the outer world was now covered by the chaotic landscape, making it unreal to them, the densely packed immortals, demons, monsters, and corpses that they had seen before were all extraordinary beings, surpassing even the celestial beings on land.

Their journey there is certain death.

If the last guardian of Penglai also leaves.

If an invasion from beyond the borders occurs and no one stops it, a catastrophe will befall humanity in an instant.

Mo Yi looked down at the sword in her hand, which resembled a green bamboo, then looked up at Qingfeng Daoist and slowly shook her head: "Even if I don't go, I can't stop too much."

He was a celestial being on land, a deity in the eyes of the world.

However, compared to the tip of the iceberg that the outer world had just revealed, Mo Yi knew very well that unless the barrier between Penglai in the Eastern Realm and the outer world was restored, he alone had no chance of stopping the invasion.

"In ancient times, there was a goddess named Nuwa who refined stones to mend the sky."

"Although Li Changsheng and I are not very talented, we may be able to hold them off for a moment and pay a price to close the gates of heaven and earth." A faint smile appeared on Qingfeng Daoren's face, but his eyes revealed a resolute determination to die for his cause: "Mo Yi, I know you have a knot in your heart, but the Eastern Territory must not be lost."

"I... understand." Mo Yi closed her eyes helplessly.

Seeing this, Daoist Qingfeng nodded in satisfaction, then turned and without hesitation transformed into a streak of rainbow light, rushing towards the outer world submerged in chaotic light. As an extremely cold sword light fell from the horizon, Li Changsheng grasped the Iron Horse Ice River sword, which he had intended to pass down to future generations, awaiting a destined person or disciple. He instructed Mo Yi, "If we cannot succeed, Mo Yi… what you must do is not to defend the Eastern Border to the death, but to run towards the Ming Dynasty and seek aid. There, Zhu Jinzhen has carefully cultivated the Cangyun and Tiance masters; their troops are strong and their generals brave, with many surpassing even the Celestial Realm."

"The Ming Dynasty?"

Mo Yi turned her head to look in the direction of the Ming Dynasty, then turned to nod at Li Changsheng.

But they discovered that their opponent had also become one with the sword, transforming into an extremely cold sword light that tore through the heavens and earth, crashing into that vast outer world.

Mo Yi paused for a moment, then cupped his hands and bowed deeply, saying loudly, "Mo Yi respectfully sees off Master and Mr. Li."

……

Beyond the human realm.

"roll!"

Zhu Jin raised his sword and swept it horizontally, the sword intent covering the sky for 30,000 miles. As the sword light spread, it even caused the heavens and earth to shatter, causing the entire world to tremble continuously.

He stood in the sky for a long time, sweeping across the sky continuously.

What kind of peerless immortal from beyond the realm, what kind of unparalleled demon god?

Nothing could stop his sword.

“This place is not right, very wrong.” Zhu Jinzhen’s face was unusually ugly. He thought the extraterrestrial world was a game world, but after he had fought his way through this world for 90,000 miles, traversing north, south, east, and west, slaying dozens of peerless immortals with his sword box, and crushing hundreds of millions of extraterrestrial beings, he finally noticed something strange.

"Although some parts do match my guess about the game world."

"But it's definitely not a game world."

"An immortal world?"

"Illusion?"

Just as Zhu Jinzhen's suspicions arose, he dodged a sharp and incomparable blade of light by sidestepping it. A tiny wound appeared on his cheek, which healed instantly before the blood could flow out.

"Get out of here..."

He raised his hand, pointed his sword at the sky, and slashed down fiercely, cleaving the demon god who was wielding a sword that emitted black flames and blood-red light.

"Oh!"

The demon god only had time to raise his sword to block before he was cleaved into the ground, creating a huge basin hundreds of feet wide.

"The gains are real, and so are the injuries."

"This is definitely not an illusion."

"But why..."

Zhu Jinzhen's figure flashed, and his sharp sword light sliced ​​through the heavens and earth, passing in front of the sword-wielding demon god who had just struggled to get up and was about to fight again. As his huge figure fell off, dozens of sword lights exploded on his body at the same time, completely dismembering him.

"Boom!"

A sky full of thunderbolts, a rain of ice arrows, and a colossal corpse hundreds of feet high, resembling a mountain, all roared as they crashed down on Zhu Jinzhen once more, intent on crushing this man who dared to intrude into their world and cause such chaos.

"Hmph, so what if you don't die?"

"Without power, immortality is not a good thing for you."

With Zhu Jinzhen's cold snort, a sword light shot into the sky, spraying like rain, magnificent and incomparable. Hundreds of millions of sword lights covered the sky and earth, as if to engulf the entire world.
