Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 602 The Final Battle Erupts (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Li Yunjing's words plunged the entire council hall into a deathly silence. The Nascent Soul cultivators scrutinized each other, and the atmosphere was so heavy it was almost suffocating.

"Fellow Daoist Li is right!"

Master Ziyang slammed his hand on the table and said sternly, "If there is a traitor among us, he must be found immediately!"

"Heh heh, I'd like to see who dares to betray the alliance!"

The white-haired old woman, Granny Xuanyin, gave a sinister smile.

Flying Cloud Immortal, Holy Sound Fairy, Heart Lake Master, Azure Sea Palace Master, Azure Wave Two Immortals, and other old friends remained silent.

They were all among the first generation of veterans, and there was a certain foundation of trust between them.

These people were all mentally recalling the newcomers' daily words and actions, trying to find some flaws.

"Fellow Daoists, with a formidable enemy at hand, if anyone harbors any disloyal intentions, step forward now, and I will let you leave without pursuing the matter."

The Five Elements Master's gaze swept over the crowd, and he said in a deep voice, "But if this is discovered, the entire family will be exterminated!"

No one answered.

"Since no one admits it, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Master Jiuyou sneered.

She flipped her hand and took out an ancient bronze mirror. The mirror surface shone with a faint blue light. It was the "Heart-Illuminating Mirror," a secret treasure of the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect"!
"A mirror reflecting one's heart?!"

someone exclaimed.

This mirror can reflect the soul of a cultivator; anyone with a guilty conscience will reveal strange phenomena!
"I'll be the first one here!"

Without hesitation, Li Yunjing immediately stood in front of the mirror.

"it is good!"

The Nine Netherworld Immortal nodded and poured his magic power into the mirror. In an instant, the mirror light rippled like water, enveloping Li Yunjing's entire body!

This effectively shut down the reason that everyone had come up with, preventing them from speaking it out.

Everyone saw that Li Yunjing was enveloped in the mirror light, showing no abnormality, and his expression was extremely calm.

After a long while, Master Jiuyou waved his hand and said, "Everyone, please stand in front of the mirror!"

"Ugh……"

Although the crowd was displeased, they had no choice but to step forward one by one, given Li Yunjing's example and the critical situation at hand.

One, two...

When it was the seventh person's turn, the mirror suddenly trembled, and what was reflected in the mirror was a hideous ghost face!
"It's you?!"

The Five Elements Master was furious and attacked instantly!

"Hahaha!"

Seeing that his plan had been exposed, the cultivator laughed wildly, his aura surged, and he directly shattered the roof of the main hall before turning into a streak of black light and escaping!
"Want to escape?!"

A cold glint flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes. With a flick of his sleeve, a seven-colored sword light pierced through the air and chased after it!

"Heh heh! Junior, you think you can take me on?"

Guan Haotian, a rogue cultivator from overseas, sneered. His withered fingers, shaped like eagle claws, twisted his body and reached out to grab the seven-colored sword light.

"Crack!"

The seven-colored sword light shattered, and Guan Haotian struck Li Yunjing with a palm!
Facing the attack of a Nascent Soul Realm expert at the third level, Li Yunjing was not afraid at all. He circulated the lightning power around his body and activated the power of the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword".

Then, phantom images of Tai Chi Bagua diagrams appeared on the sword, blocking the person's palm strike from a distance.

"Little brat, you're quite capable!"

Guan Haotian was shocked. He hadn't expected that a mere Golden Core cultivator could block his long-range killing move.
Enraged, he flew to the sky above the shattered hall, and with a flash of light in his hand, a long sword slashed down at Li Yunjing below!
"when……"

The longswords and sabers clashed, producing a metallic clang that was particularly jarring, and sparks even flew.

Li Yunjing stumbled backward, crushing more than a dozen of the blue bricks on the ground, even with the protective barrier, before finally regaining his footing.

Just as the other Nascent Soul cultivators were about to make a move, the Five Elements True Man waved his hand, signaling them not to.

Since Li Yunjing was capable of exchanging blows with a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, the Five Elements Realm cultivator was willing to make use of him and hone Li Yunjing's combat strength before Guan Haotian's death.

"Oh? You're not going to make a move?"

Guan Haotian grinned maliciously, seemingly understanding the intentions of the group of masters, his heart burning with rage.

Since there is no possibility of escape today, let's cripple Li Yunjing. Perhaps if we capture him, we can make demands with the Five Elements Master and escape this calamity.
With this thought in mind, he pulled back his arm, grabbed the sword, and then swung the longsword down at Li Yunjing's head.

"Hmph! You think you can kill me?"

Although surprised by Guan Haotian's strength, Li Yunjing was not flustered at all. He circulated his internal magic power to the fullest extent, concentrated it at his waist, and crouched down, barely dodging the knife!

Immediately afterwards, dazzling lightning erupted from the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword"!

"Boom!"

The "Five Elements Divine Thunder" and "Yin Yang Divine Thunder" coalesced and exploded in front of Guan Haotian.

The explosion traveled a very short distance, instantly shattering Guan Haotian's arm, which then traveled upwards and directly impacted Guan Haotian's body.

"What powerful lightning magic!"

Seeing that things were not going well, Guan Haotian let out a strange cry. Before the lightning energy could enter his body, it instantly dispersed and turned into a cloud of white smoke, causing him to retreat rapidly.

Almost instantly, the white smoke rose ten feet above the hall and reformed into the man's body.

Faced with Li Yunjing's deadly attack, Guan Haotian only paid the minor price of having his arm blown off.

This is the reaction speed of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

At the same time, just as Guan Haotian's figure materialized, thousands of tiny Yin needles were silently activated from his sleeves, piercing towards Li Yunjing and the group of Nascent Soul cultivators in the hall.

Li Yunjing was startled by the dense barrage of attacks!
He simply couldn't block them all!
"evil creature!"

Seeing this, the Five Elements Master stood in front of Li Yunjing and waved his sleeve to form a barrier of five-colored divine light. In the hands of the Five Elements Master, this divine power was a hundred times more powerful than that of Li Yunjing!
These needles were blocked, but they bought Guan Haotian a little time.

He soared into the air, and in just a few breaths, he had once again created distance between himself and the Five Elements True Man and the others.

"Heh heh! You fools, trying to fight the 'Tianluo Dao Sect'? You're courting death!"

Guan Haotian laughed loudly. He was a Nascent Soul Realm expert, so losing an arm was nothing to him.

As long as you find rare and precious materials, you can forge a new arm and reattach it, and it will still be able to unleash 80-90% of its power.

A master of this level will not die easily unless his nascent soul is shattered.

"I never expected a junior to have reached such a level. It seems I underestimated you."

Guan Haotian grinned maliciously and said, "I can't kill you today, but when the experts from the 'Tianluo Dao Sect' arrive, you will still die!"

However, before Guan Haotian could finish gloating, a cold shout came from behind him: "A mere rogue cultivator dares to spout such arrogant words. You are truly ignorant and fearless!"

Before Guan Haotian could turn around, a burst of pure lightning exploded from his chest, instantly blasting his body apart and turning it into a cloud of blood mist.

"what……"

A scream echoed from the sky, and amidst the rain of blood, a three-inch-long nascent soul flew out and fled into the distance.

Looking around, Li Yunjing saw that it was Lei Ze Zhenren from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" who had made his move.

This real person has a volatile temper, but possesses extremely rich combat experience.

They had been hiding in the shadows for a long time, and as soon as Guan Haotian tried to escape, they intercepted him immediately, which is why they achieved such a brilliant victory.

Otherwise, it would have taken Master Lei Ze hundreds of rounds to defeat Guan Haotian and destroy him completely.

Such a laborious method is nowhere near as easy as it is now.
With a sneak attack, he shattered the opponent's body, leaving only a nascent soul.

"Guan Haotian! You still want to run away?"

Master Lei Ze sneered, made a sword gesture with his hands, and silently chanted an incantation. A bolt of lightning struck down, and Guan Haotian's nascent soul was instantly reduced to ashes.

However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, a deafening roar suddenly came from the distant sea!
"Rumble..."

Dark clouds rolled and countless crimson lightning bolts struck down, instantly causing the entire sea to boil!

"Oh no! The Tianluo Dao Sect has launched a full-scale attack!"

The Five Elements Master's expression changed drastically.

Li Yunjing clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Everyone, prepare for battle!"

A deep horn sound suddenly came from where the sea and sky met.

Immediately afterwards, a massive, dark mass of warships swept in from afar, blotting out the sky.

In the sky, on the sea, and even in the seabed, there were countless warships of the "Tianluo Dao Sect," numbering in the tens of thousands.

On these warships were large armies of cultivators clad in armor and helmets!
"coming!"

Standing on the city wall, Li Yunjing's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he shouted loudly, "Fully activate the 'Nine Luminaries Dragon Locking Formation'!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" As Li Yunjing gave the order, the deep and solemn sound of war drums echoed throughout the entire sea, like the roar of an ancient behemoth.

Just as the thousands of warships of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" launched the "Spirit Annihilation Array" from the sky, the sea surface, and the seabed, the peerless array of the "Holy Sound Sea Area" was finally fully activated.

One after another, the spirit stone veins were ignited!

At this point, the number of spirit stones consumed is no longer calculated in "pieces".

It's calculated based on the mineral vein!

For today's battle, all the major sects and families of the "East Sea Alliance," including the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect," have paid a huge price and provided a massive amount of spirit stones.

Some sects even extracted low-level spiritual veins from underground or the sea and placed them into various important nodes of the "Nine Luminaries Locking Dragon Formation".

Now, looking out over the "Sacred Sound Sea," it is bathed in a dazzling array of colors.

The entire sea area is like a crystal world, beautiful and magnificent.

But at that moment, no one was in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery; everyone was focused on each other.

"Get into formation!"

The Five Elements Immortal suddenly roared, and nine golden rays flew out from his sleeve, shooting towards the sea in nine different directions.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Nine towering golden pillars burst forth from the sea, their bodies wrapped in dark gold chains. Each pillar was topped with a dazzling star bead, radiating a chilling aura.

These "Star Beads" are not ordinary objects; they come from "dead" stars from beyond the realm.

These are the last treasures of a depleted planet!

Each one came from the ancestors of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," who traveled throughout the vast universe and obtained them.

Now, all of them have been used by the Five Elements Master.

"The Nine Luminaries Dragon Locking Formation?!"

The Heavenly Luo Sect Master's pupils constricted sharply, "You actually dare..."

This is the most secret and forbidden formation of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," using nine top-grade "Heaven-Reaching Golden Pillars" as its core, borrowing the power of the nine heavens to suppress all things.

Once formed, it can lock spiritual power and seal divine consciousness. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator trapped inside will suffer greatly!

This is even under the condition that the "Shenxiao Daozong" cannot activate 100% of its power.

If the full power of this forbidden formation could be restored, even celestial beings descending from heaven would be killed within its confines.

"Lock!"

With a command from the Five Elements Master, the nine "Heaven-Reaching Golden Pillars" trembled violently, and dark gold chains shot out like living things, instantly forming a huge array space that sealed off the entire sea area.

"Crash!"

Ancient runes appeared densely on the chains, and wherever they passed, warships that blocked the chains were torn to shreds like thin paper.

"what……"

Many cultivators were reduced to ashes before they could even react, thanks to the aftershocks of the chain runes.

At this time, apart from Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, there is no difference between other Golden Core Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm, and Qi Refining Realm cultivators; their life force is extremely fragile.

Anyone hit by the rune will instantly turn to ashes, without exception!

"it is good!"

Seeing their own formation activate and immediately unleash its power, the million-strong army of the "East China Sea Alliance" erupted in cheers, their courage soaring and their morale soaring.

"All soldiers, heed my command!"

Seizing the opportunity, Li Yunjing pointed his sword at the sky and shouted loudly.

Small teams, scattered into scattered battle formations, moved through the "Nine Luminaries Locking Dragon Formation." Soldiers, armed with weapons, transformed into streaks of light and charged into the enemy ranks.

Slay the enemy cultivators whose warships were damaged and who fell into the sea.

"Sect Master! The vanguard has collapsed!"

The gray-robed old man, covered in blood, rushed into the command center. "The Third and Seventh Fleets are completely wiped out! The 'Spirit Annihilation Array' has malfunctioned!"

"hey-hey!"

The Heavenly Luo Sect Master's face was ashen.

He crushed the teacup in his hand and said coldly, "Activate 'Blood Sacrifice'."

"what?!"

The gray-robed old man was horrified, "But those servant troops haven't withdrawn yet..."

"Excuting an order."

The Sect Master of Tianluo Sect said coldly.

"Yes!"

The gray-robed old man had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

As the order was given, within the cages of warships, one after another demonic beasts and demon kings were killed by the restrictions, their blood staining the warships red.

Tens of millions of monsters became the objects of blood sacrifice!

The next moment, blood-red runes suddenly lit up on all the warships of the "Tianluo Dao Sect"'s allied forces.

The cultivators were horrified to discover that their bodies were melting, their flesh and blood turning into a blood mist that rose up and condensed in the sky to form a bloody hand that blotted out the sun!
The Tianluo Dao Sect did not perform a blood sacrifice on the cultivators, but instead did not notify these servants, showing no concern for their lives!

Tens of millions of demonic beasts are enough for a blood sacrifice to obtain mysterious power.

"Using millions of demonic beasts as sacrifices..."

Li Yunjing's face turned deathly pale. "What ruthless methods!"

This time, not only was Li Yunjing shocked, but many cultivators from the "East Sea Alliance," including the experts from the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect," were also terrified and turned pale.

The blood sacrifice of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" is a hundred times more terrifying than that of demons!
Those most vicious demonic cultivators would probably be scared to death if they saw today's scene!
As war broke out, the sea creature army that had joined the alliance was horrified. Many low-ranking sea creatures, acting on instinct, began to scatter.

Some radical sea creatures entered the seabed of the main battlefield and have now all turned into blood.

Under the power of blood sacrifice, these sea creatures willingly became offerings.

These are all cultivators. If we add ordinary sea creatures, the number becomes incalculable, and it's impossible to know exactly how many lives have been lost.

The cruel methods turned the entire "Holy Sound Sea" into a bloody mess!
"Crash!"

Suddenly, a dazzling light burst forth in the sky!

Boundless malevolent energy rose from below and entered the sky. Within the dark clouds, the reflection of the magnificent landscape was cast upon the "Holy Sound Sea"!
This is the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" of the "Tianluo Dao Sect"!
In order to unleash the power of this supreme treasure, the Tianluo Dao Sect devised a blood sacrifice method!

The enormous picture, with just one tremor, caused the dark clouds in the sky to completely dissipate.

A tremendous force slammed down, instantly snapping two of the nine "heaven-reaching golden pillars".

The "Nine Luminaries Dragon Locking Formation" developed a gap in just one strike, and dozens of the main warships of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" seized the opportunity to launch an attack, bombarding the cultivators of the "East Sea Alliance".

Thirty "floating warships" were arranged in a "heavenly net formation," and with the blessing of the "Map of Mountains and Rivers," they were almost extremely powerful.

These are all fourth-tier warships of the "Tianluo Dao Sect"!

With each shot down, one of the small teams sent by the "East China Sea Alliance" disappeared!
On the sea, the main fleet of the "Tianluo Dao Sect" advanced in a wedge formation.

At the forefront were three massive, world-breaking ships, each ten thousand feet long, made entirely of black iron and covered with spikes. Wherever they passed, the waves parted automatically.

The "Boundary-Breaking Giant Ship" is the most advanced warship of the "Tianluo Dao Sect," comparable to the peak of the fourth tier, and is a warship capable of space travel.

The flagship of the Tianluo Sect Master was one of them.

Besides the thirty-three main warships in the sky and on the sea, hundreds of third-tier warships followed behind, their decks filled with cultivators clad in black armor and wielding long spears, exuding a murderous aura.

Deep beneath the sea, spirit boats are searching for an opportunity to attack any lone cultivators from the "East Sea Alliance."

Within the "Nine Luminaries Locking Dragon Formation," the entire "Holy Sound Sea" is a battlefield, with the main battlefield and various smaller battlefields erupting in extremely fierce warfare.

Death became the only melody.

"boom……"

Round after round of salvos began!

The warships in the three spaces unleashed a barrage of cannon fire, and crimson beams of light poured down like a torrential rain, causing hearing problems for a million cultivators.

Aside from the deafening roar, they could no longer hear the voices of those around them.

"Resist with all your might!"

The Five Elements Immortal's hair and beard stood on end, and his hands formed a mudra.

The seven-colored light shield of the "Nine Luminaries Dragon Locking Formation" trembled violently as it withstood a world-destroying attack.

Ripples continued to spread across the surface of the photomask, and cracks had begun to appear in some areas.
