"kill!"
Seeing this, the cultivators on the ramparts became even more determined to fight, and various attacks rained down on the outer demonic tide.
However, deep within the demonic clouds, the icy will belonging to the Void Demon God remained completely undisturbed, as if the death of a lord-level demon was utterly insignificant.
Instead, driven by His will, more and more demons surged in like a tide, and among them began to be more strange and eerie high-level demons!
The battle entered a more brutal phase of attrition.
"Can't relax!"
Li Yunjing said in a deep voice, "The demon race is using the lives of low-level demons to deplete our strength and the energy of our formation!"
He looked at Yu Chenzi and Blood Demon Ancestor: "Fellow Daoists, you need to take turns guarding the central hub to recover your mana in order to deal with any stronger enemies that may appear."
"What Fellow Daoist Li said is absolutely right."
Yu Chenzi nodded, "Fellow Daoist Blood Demon, please recuperate first. Fellow Daoist Li and I will support you here."
The Blood Demon Ancestor did not refuse. Killing a lord-level demon had also taken a toll on him, so he immediately retreated, swallowed pills, and began to recover by circulating his demonic power.
Li Yunjing and Yu Chenzi each displayed their unique abilities, continuing to command and participate in the defense.
Time flew by amidst the fierce battle.
One day, two days...
The defense system of the "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" withstood wave after wave of frenzied attacks from the demon race.
The array's light barrier flickered several times, creating numerous perilous situations, but thanks to the desperate efforts of the three vice alliance leaders and many Nascent Soul True Monarchs, it ultimately did not break.
The casualties among the cultivators began to increase, and the consumption of spirit stones and talismans was astronomical.
That morning, as the faint light of dawn barely pierced through the demonic clouds, another strange event occurred!
"Om..."
In the distant starry sky, two intense spatial fluctuations came almost simultaneously!
Immediately afterwards, two disarrayed but still basically formed torrents of cultivators rushed toward the "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" reception array from different directions, as if fleeing a disaster!
These are the garrison troops who withdrew from the "Mystic Ice Realm" and the "Storm Realm"!
They've finally arrived!
But behind them, a massive demon army was hot on their heels!
Behind the defenders of the "Mystic Ice Realm" was a raging torrent of ice shards mixed with demonic energy, as countless "Ice Demons" and "Snow Demons" adapted to the extreme cold roared in pursuit.
The defenders of the "Storm Realm" are also in a critical situation, entangled by bizarre demons born from various energy storms.
"Get them!"
Li Yunjing immediately gave the order!
"Boom!"
The support troops, who had been preparing for a long time, immediately opened two specific array channels, and powerful traction beams shot towards the two retreating teams. At the same time, dense firepower covered the pursuers behind them, covering their retreat.
After a fierce boarding action and resistance, most of the two battered evacuation teams finally managed to break into the defensive light barrier of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals".
However, the troops responsible for covering the rear were almost completely wiped out.
The guardian general of the "Mysterious Ice Realm," that Nascent Soul True Monarch, almost collapsed from exhaustion as soon as he entered the light barrier. Of the nearly ten thousand cultivators he brought, less than six thousand remained, and all of them were injured.
The situation in "Storm Boundary" is slightly better, but they have still lost nearly 30% of their forces.
The atmosphere in the entire "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" became even more somber and tragic due to the arrival of these two new forces and the tragic news they brought.
At this point, the "Tianlan Alliance" had abandoned all three of its outposts outside the region.
All forces have been concentrated in the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," the last fortress.
After devouring the "Crimson Flame Realm" and driving away the guards of the other two realms, the main force of the Demon Race has completely surrounded the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals".
The demonic clouds blotted out the sun, and the terrifying power contained within them made every cultivator feel suffocated.
The Void Demon God's enormous, distorted silhouette loomed in the depths of the demonic clouds, its icy will hanging like the Sword of Damocles over everyone's head.
Li Yunjing, Yu Chenzi, and the Blood Demon Ancestor stood side by side on the main barrier, gazing at the boundless demonic tide outside.
Behind them is the elite force of the "Tianlan Starfield" expeditionary force.
"Everyone."
Li Yunjing's voice, transmitted clearly throughout the entire realm through his magic, overpowered the roars of the demons and the hum of the formation.
"Our home is right behind us!"
"In this battle, there is no retreat, only death!"
"Only war!"
"kill!"
A soaring fighting spirit, mixed with a death-defying belief, erupted from the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," colliding violently with the ferocious aura of the demons!
Outside the barrier of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," the demonic tide surged like a relentless black tsunami, wave after wave crashing against the crumbling defensive light screen.
Several days of fierce fighting have left this ancient site riddled with holes.
The once brilliant array runes had dimmed considerably, cracks were scattered all over the barrier, and the corpses of cultivators and the remains of demons were mixed together, turning the cold starstones dark red.
Li Yunjing, Yu Chenzi, and the Blood Demon Ancestor took turns fighting, expending a great deal of magical power, and their auras appeared somewhat disordered.
Even the Blood Demon Ancestor, after devouring several demon leaders, found his blood dragon scarred and no longer as ferocious as it once was.
"This can't go on like this!"
"The formation's energy is being consumed too quickly, and our stockpile of high-grade spirit stones is almost gone!"
Yu Chenzi flicked his whisk, repairing a key point of the array that was about to collapse, his face pale: "The cultivators have suffered heavy casualties, and their morale is low!"
"Hehe, what's there to be afraid of!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor grinned maliciously, manipulating his blood dragon to tear apart a "Gold-Eroding Demon" that was trying to climb the barrier. "At worst, I'll just abandon this tortoise shell and fight them hand-to-hand! My Blood Sea desperately needs more nourishment!"
Li Yunjing ignored the Blood Demon Ancestor's crazy words. He frowned and scanned the entire battlefield with his divine sense.
The demons' offensive seemed endless. The lower-level demons didn't care about casualties, while the higher-level demons hid deep in the demon clouds, waiting for their chance to strike.
What was most unsettling was that the aura of that Void Demon God constantly shrouded the battlefield like a dark cloud. Although it never made a move, the pressure it brought made every high-level cultivator breathless.
"We must find a way to break the deadlock..."
Li Yunjing quickly calculated all his trump cards in his mind.
Although the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" is powerful, it should not be used lightly as a last resort, and its power lies more in guarding "Tianlan Star".
Just as he was racking his brains for a solution, a sudden and extremely chilling cold swept out from the far north of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals" without warning!
This chill was not an attack, yet it instantly overwhelmed the killing intent and the coldness of demonic energy on the battlefield, carrying a pure and ancient majesty.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, countless points of icy blue light suddenly lit up in the northern sky that was covered by eternal ice!
"Chirp..."
A clear, melodious phoenix cry, seemingly capable of freezing the soul, tore apart the demon's roar and resounded throughout the entire realm!
With a phoenix cry, a colossal ice-blue figure slowly emerged in the northern sky!
It resembles a phoenix, but its entire body is carved from ten-thousand-year-old mysterious ice. Its wingspan is enough to cover half of the sky. It exudes a terrifying demonic aura of the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, as well as a kind of holiness and coldness that surpasses all living beings!
It was none other than the Northern Overlord of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," the Ice Phoenix, with whom Li Yunjing had a non-aggression pact!
Behind the Ice Phoenix was a vast army of ice-type monsters of various shapes and sizes!
The massive war bears, clad in heavy ice armor, let out deep roars; packs of nimble and swift ice wolves, their breath chilling; and ice falcons soaring through the sky, giant pythons lurking beneath the ice plains… thousands upon thousands, their demonic aura soaring to the heavens!
Their gazes were no longer filled with the chaos and savagery of the past, but with a resolute determination of shared hatred, fixed intently on the boundless demonic tide in the distance.
"Ice Phoenix...she actually came out on her own initiative?"
An expression of disbelief flashed in Yu Chenzi's eyes.
"What is this old ice bird trying to do?"
The Blood Demon Ancestor also stopped grinning, and the blood dragon coiled back, looking warily to the north: "Taking advantage of the chaos?"
Li Yunjing's heart stirred, and he instantly understood Bingfeng's intention.
The demon race's nature of destroying everything and devouring all things has violated the most fundamental survival bottom line of all native creatures!
Even a proud being like the Ice Phoenix could no longer remain unscathed!
"He did not come to take advantage of the chaos."
Li Yunjing said in a deep voice, a complex look flashing in his eyes, "He's here... to join the war!"
As if to confirm his words, Bingfeng's icy gaze swept over the crowd on the ramparts, finally settling on Li Yunjing, and a clear thought entered the hearts of everyone present:
"The Demon Race is the enemy of all realms!"
"The icy plains must not be defiled!"
"In this battle, I will stand shoulder to shoulder with you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the ice phoenix suddenly flapped its wings!
"Boom!!"
An endless, frigid storm instantly formed, carrying billions of ice shards, like a giant ice dragon that stretched across the heavens and earth, roaring as it charged into the flank of the demon army!
Wherever it passed, whether it was a low-level Shadow Fiend or a tough-skinned Mighty Fiend, it was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture, and then turned into dust under the tearing of the storm!
The demonic beast army under the Ice Phoenix's command also roared with earth-shattering force, crashing into the demonic tide like a dam bursting!
The ice bear stood upright, its massive paws slamming down, freezing and shattering the monster along with the surrounding earth; the ice wolf pack, like a white wave of death, tore at the monster's limbs; the ice falcon swooped down from the sky, its sharp claws and chilling breath carrying away winged demons one by one...
The arrival of this new force instantly disrupted the demon race's offensive rhythm!
The flanks of the demon army were thrown into chaos, and the once continuous offensive, which was like a tidal wave, showed obvious signs of slowing down and gaps appearing!
"Excellent! What a fine ice phoenix!"
Yu Chenzi clapped his hands and laughed heartily, his spirits greatly lifted: "Heaven is helping me!"
"All troops, listen to my command! Coordinate with our allies on the Ice Plains and launch a counterattack!"
Seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Li Yunjing immediately issued the order to launch a counterattack!
"kill!"
The morale of the cultivators on the ramparts, which had been low, was instantly ignited by this sudden and powerful reinforcement!
Seeing hope in dire circumstances often unleashes even greater power!
The light of countless flying swords, magical artifacts, and spells shone brightly once again, complementing the icy breath of the ice field beasts, like two giant pincers fiercely attacking the chaotic flanks of the demon race!
With a long roar, the Xuan Gang Sword Master unleashed his sword light, which transformed into a rainbow and charged directly into the enemy ranks, engaging in battle with a powerful "Demon Commander".
The ethereal fairy used illusions to create illusions among the demons, guiding them to attack more effectively.
The puppet army of the Thousand Machine Elder also launched another attack, forming a solid line to resist the counterattack of the demons.
Even the Blood Demon Ancestor let out a strange laugh and commanded the Blood Dragon to rush into the battlefield, specifically to devour those demons frozen by the power of ice, with astonishing efficiency.
The battle situation has shown signs of reversal due to the arrival of Bingfeng and her army!
The Ice Phoenix soared above the battlefield. It did not engage in a prolonged battle with the Demon Lord-level beings. Instead, it continuously unleashed wide-range ice-based divine abilities, freezing thousands of miles and slowing down the Demon Lord's overall offensive, creating local advantages for the cultivators and demon beast army of the "Tianlan Alliance".
While directing the overall operation, Li Yunjing kept a close eye on the movements deep within the Demon Cloud.
The demons will never stand idly by and watch the war unfold in this way.
That Void Demon God, and its even more powerful forces, are likely about to make their move.
Sure enough, just as the allied forces were launching a relentless offensive, driving the demons' flanks into a series of defeats, deep within the demonic clouds, that cold will finally showed a noticeable fluctuation!
An evil aura, far more terrifying than any previous demon lord and almost surpassing the Nascent Soul stage, slowly awakened!
Immediately afterwards, the demonic clouds parted to the sides, and a colossal, terrifying monster resembling a decaying star slowly emerged!
Its surface was covered with wriggling tentacles and huge pustules, and countless monsters crawled on it like parasites, exuding a nauseating filth and an aura of destruction!
"The Corrupted Planet's Mother Nest!"
Yu Chenzi's expression changed drastically, his voice filled with shock: "The Demon Race has actually deployed such a war behemoth!"
This "Corrupted Star Mother Nest" is not a simple creature, but a terrifying existence that is half life and half architecture. It can continuously hatch various demons and release large-scale corrosive energy storms, which have extremely strong destructive power over formations and large-scale defensive fortifications!
Its appearance signifies that the demon race has begun to utilize its true strategic power!
"We must stop it from getting any closer!"
Li Yunjing said sternly, "Once it gets close to the barrier, our defense system will collapse in a short time!"
"I go!"
Blood Demon Ancestor's eyes blazed with blood-red light, revealing a hint of excitement, "The flesh and blood of this big guy must be incredibly nourishing!"
However, before the Blood Demon Ancestor could set off, the Ice Phoenix in the sky let out an even more resonant cry!
He was clearly aware of the immense threat posed by the "Corrupted Star Mother Nest"!
An unprecedentedly dazzling blue light erupted from the Ice Phoenix's body, and the chilling air of the entire northern part of the "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" seemed to be drawn to it, frantically converging towards it!
His body became even more translucent in the light, as if he had transformed into the embodiment of pure ice law!
"Ultimate Freeze!"
With its wings folded, the Ice Phoenix, like an arrow released from a bow, transformed into an extreme cold current that swept across the starry sky, heading straight for the slowly approaching "Corrupted Star Mother Nest"!
"boom!!!"
An indescribable collision erupted in the starry sky!
The forces of extreme cold and extreme pollution clashed and annihilated each other in a frenzy!
A dark blue energy storm swept across the area, turning everything that came near into nothingness!
As the light faded, the surface of the massive "Corrupted Star Mother Nest" was covered with a thick layer of mysterious ice that shimmered with runes of law. Its wriggling and hatching abilities seemed to be temporarily frozen, and its movements became extremely sluggish!
Ice Phoenix was sent flying backward, its icy blue light dimming considerably. Clearly, this attack had taken a heavy toll on it, and it might even have suffered a serious injury.
But He successfully bought precious time for the allied forces!
"good chance!"
Li Yunjing's eyes flashed with a sharp light!
"Fellow Daoist Yu Chenzi, hold the line!"
"Fellow Daoist Blood Demon, follow me and strike while the iron is hot!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Yunjing had already transformed into a bolt of lightning and soared into the sky!
The Blood Demon Ancestor let out a wild laugh, and a blood dragon coiled around his body, following closely behind!
The two experts are targeting the temporarily frozen "Corrupted Star Mother Nest"!
Li Yunjing transformed into a bolt of lightning, moving with lightning speed, and in an instant, he had already approached the massive "Corrupted Star Mother Nest" covered by Xuanbing (a type of ice).
The closer you get, the stronger the nauseating filth and destructive aura becomes, as if it will corrode your very soul.
The frozen tentacles and pustules on the surface of the mother nest were still wriggling slightly, trying to break free from the ice.
"Thunder Tribulation Divine Fist! Break Evil!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Yunjing unleashed his boundless thunderous true essence without reservation, throwing out a punch!
"Boom!"
A thick pillar of purple-gold lightning, like a sword of divine punishment, struck the frozen core area of the "Corrupted Star Mother Nest"!
Lightning exploded, and the supremely yang and powerful thunderous force resonated with the extreme cold left by the ice phoenix. The ice and lightning intertwined, unleashing a destructive force far beyond the ordinary!
"Crack... Boom!"
The thick layer of ice on the surface of the mother nest was instantly covered with cracks, and then shattered on a large scale!
The rotting tissue, frozen beneath the ice, was exposed, charred and carbonized by the thunder, emitting a piercing scream!
"Roar!"
The mother nest seemed to sense a deadly threat, letting out a painful and furious mental roar. The remaining tentacles that were not frozen thrashed wildly, spewing out large plumes of corrosive black mist that enveloped Li Yunjing!
"A boundless sea of blood!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor followed closely behind, his blood dragon roaring and transforming into a towering wave of blood, meeting the corrosive black mist head-on!
"Chichichi..."
The blood waves and black mist clashed violently, eroding each other and producing a piercing sound.
The Blood Demon Ancestor's Blood Sea Divine Power seemed to have a unique restraining effect on this filthy energy. Although the blood waves were constantly dissolving, it successfully blocked the spread of the black mist!
"A good opportunity! Fellow Daoist Li, attack its core!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor shouted sternly, while simultaneously manipulating the Blood Dragon to tightly entangle several of the main tentacles.
Li Yunjing's eyes were sharp; his "Creation Eyes" instantly saw through the weak points in the energy flow of the mother nest.
A huge abscess that keeps swelling and throbs like a heart!
That is the very core of the Mother Nest, where monsters are hatched and energy converges! "Yin Yang Five Elements, Heavenly Evolution Sword Formation! Slash!"
With a thought, Li Yunjing opened the sword box behind him, and the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" transformed into five-colored streams of light that soared into the sky, instantly forming a huge sword formation that covered an area of a hundred miles!
The five colors of sword energy—gold, green, blue, red, and yellow—flowed endlessly, drawing upon the power of the five elements in the universe. It transformed into a dazzling torrent of sword energy that tore through the void, like the Milky Way pouring down from the heavens, striking the "heart" with unparalleled precision!
"Pfft!"
The sword energy pierced through the abscess without any resistance!
"Ow!!!"
The "Corrupted Star Mother Nest" let out an unprecedentedly shrill scream, its massive body convulsing violently, and dark green filthy blood gushing out like a waterfall!
The evil aura emanating from him rapidly dissipated like a deflated balloon!
"Hahaha! So happy!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor was overjoyed at the sight. The Blood Dragon took the opportunity to devour the gushing filthy blood and dissipated demonic energy. Although this energy was filthy, it could still be transformed into pure blood demonic power to replenish itself after being refined by the sea of blood.
However, just when the two thought they were about to succeed!
Deep within the demonic clouds, the will of the Void Demon God, which had been coldly watching the battlefield, finally became truly enraged!
"Insects... how dare you destroy my weapons!"
A thought containing endless destruction and tyranny slammed into the souls of Li Yunjing and the Blood Demon Ancestor like a heavy hammer!
Even with their cultivation levels, the sudden shock to their souls caused their blood and qi to churn and their consciousness to become blurred!
Immediately afterwards, a colossal claw covered in jet-black scales and crackling with destructive lightning tore through layers of demonic clouds, carrying a terrifying power that could crush stars, and slashed down towards the two of them and the heavily injured "Corrupted Star Mother Nest"!
The real crisis comes from the personal intervention of a demon god at the Fusion Realm!
"not good!"
Li Yunjing and the Blood Demon Ancestor's expressions changed drastically!
The power contained in this giant claw far exceeds the Nascent Soul stage; it is simply beyond their ability to withstand!
"retreat!"
Without hesitation, the two retreated rapidly, simultaneously unleashing their strongest defensive techniques!
Li Yunjing's body was crackling with lightning, transforming into layers of lightning shields. The phantom of the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" faintly appeared behind him, its body swirling and casting down beams of demonic light to protect him!
The Blood Demon Ancestor instantly shrank the sea of blood, condensing it into a thick blood crystal shield in front of him!
"boom!!!"
The demon's giant claw descended!
The first to suffer was the dying "Corrupted Star Mother Nest," which was easily crushed like a fragile egg, turning into filthy flesh and blood that flew everywhere!
Immediately afterwards, the aftershocks of the giant claw slammed into Li Yunjing's lightning shield and the Blood Demon Ancestor's blood shield!
"Crack!"
The lightning shield shattered instantly!
The blood shield is riddled with cracks!
As if struck by a meteorite, the two spat out blood and flew backward like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily onto the distant fortress and creating two deep craters in the sturdy structure!
The power of one blow is so terrifying!
"Fellow Daoist Li!"
"Fellow Daoist Blood Demon!"
Yu Chenzi and the others exclaimed in alarm and rushed forward to help.
The entire battlefield fell silent!
The morale of the allied forces, which had just been boosted, was once again severely crushed by this absolute disparity in strength!
The Ice Phoenix cried out anxiously high in the sky, but its all-out attack to freeze its mother nest had exhausted it greatly, and it was now unable to withstand the power of the Demon God.
Within the demonic clouds, the massive outline of the Void Demon God became even clearer, its cold, gigantic eyes sweeping across the battlefield, filled with disdain and killing intent.
He seemed to have no intention of playing the game of attrition any longer and wanted to personally take action to crush this last force of resistance!
Despair has struck again!
However, at this critical moment!
Deep within the "Tianlan Star," on the long-silent altar, the phantom old man figure of the tower spirit attached to the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" slowly reappeared.
His figure was more transparent than before, as if he might disappear at any moment, but his eyes burned with a resolute light.
It is obviously not easy to manifest from "Tianlan Star" to the distant "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm"!
Even a celestial artifact!
All eyes turned toward the "Tianlan Star"!
Everyone looked shocked.
Including those endless demons!
"Boom!!!"
A magnificent divine power, originating from the depths of the universe and spanning countless galaxies, suddenly descended!
This oppressive force did not originate from the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals" itself, but rather from the extremely distant "Tianlan Star," which was protected by numerous arrays. It pierced through the void and arrived with overwhelming force!
The "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" projection behind Li Yunjing, which had previously been just a phantom, suddenly solidified a hundredfold!
The tower's body is no longer an illusory outline, but rather reveals an ancient and weathered substance, with countless complex and mysterious demonic runes and immortal restrictions intertwined and flowing.
At the top of the tower, a blurry yet supremely majestic old man held the tower seal and pointed it at the sky-covering demonic claw!
"town!"
There was no earth-shattering roar, only a rhythm that seemed to originate from the very source of the Great Dao.
A beam of celestial light, condensed to its extreme and seemingly hazy yet containing boundless sealing and suppressing power, burst forth from the top of the tower. It arrived first despite being delayed, instantly traversing the distance of space and colliding with the giant claw of the demon god that was falling again!
"Shoot..."
It was like a red-hot iron meeting ice and snow.
The colossal demonic claw, powerful enough to crush stars and crackled with destructive lightning, dissipated as rapidly as a punctured balloon the instant it came into contact with the hazy celestial light!
The jet-black scales dimmed, and the destructive lightning wailed as it vanished!
The giant claw's downward momentum was abruptly halted in mid-air, and it was even forced to retract slightly by the powerful immortal sealing force!
"Roar!!!"
From the depths of the demonic clouds came the roar of the Void Demon God, filled with shock and rage!
He clearly hadn't expected that in this remote star field, there would exist a celestial artifact that could unleash such power from such a great distance and directly block his attack!
Although this attack was not His full strength, the power of the immortal artifact was already evident!
"It's the 'Tower of Ten Thousand Demons'! The Tower Spirit has awakened!"
Yu Chenzi was both surprised and delighted. He quickly helped up the seriously injured Li Yunjing and the Blood Demon Ancestor, and channeled his pure magic power into their bodies to help them stabilize their injuries.
"Damn it! I almost died!"
Li Yunjing coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, his face was pale, but his eyes were surprisingly bright.
He sensed the intense fluctuations of the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" source mark within his body, knowing that the tower spirit had just launched a crucial attack across star regions at the cost of its own source, buying them a precious respite!
"Cough cough... Good heavens... This old devil is really something when he goes berserk..."
The Blood Demon Ancestor was also weakened, and the phantom of the blood dragon had faded considerably, but he was still sharp-tongued, though his eyes were filled with horror.
The power of the Fusion Realm far exceeded his imagination.
"call out!"
Just as the Void Demon God was enraged by the obstruction of the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" and the demonic clouds surged violently again, seemingly brewing an even more terrifying attack, another strange sound came from the direction of "Tianlan Star"!
Unlike the majestic immortal power of the "Ten Thousand Demons Tower" that suppresses all demons, this strange sound carries a unique and strange Daoist charm that seems to penetrate all laws and dispel all precious light!
A simple, unadorned copper coin, seemingly cast from the most ordinary bronze, appeared in the sky above the "Ancient Burial Realm," its shape round on the outside and square on the inside. It pierced through the void and spun around.
The copper coin phantom seemed insignificant, but the moment it appeared, all the magic treasures and flying swords of the cultivators on the entire battlefield, and even the weapons of the demon race formed from demonic energy, trembled slightly, and their spiritual light seemed to dim by half!
"'Falling Treasure Immortal Coins'! It's the most prized artifact of 'Gathering Treasure Pavilion'!"
A knowledgeable Nascent Soul True Lord exclaimed in shock!
"The 'Treasure Pavilion,' one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Grottoes, has finally unleashed its full power!"
The illusory image of the "Falling Treasure Immortal Coin" did not directly attack the demon god. Instead, it stopped in mid-air and shot out a clear, misty immortal light from its square hole. It did not target the physical entity but instead locked onto the "connection" between the void demon god deep within the demon clouds and the demonic energy of this star field, as well as the demonic war beasts!
This treasure possesses supernatural powers; it can also cause the loss of treasures, supernatural powers, fortune, and severing of connections!
"Om..."
As the clear, ethereal light swept across, the Void Demon God, who was preparing to launch another attack from the depths of the demonic clouds, suddenly let out a muffled groan filled with surprise and doubt!
He felt that his "controlling connection" with part of his demon army, with the energy supply provided by the ruins of the "Corrupted Star Mother Nest", and even with the laws of this star field that were tainted by demonic energy had become somewhat obscure and weak!
It's like someone who's about to exert force suddenly finding their footing soft and slippery!
Although it wasn't enough to cause Him to fall from his current realm, it did significantly interfere with and weaken the source of power and the stability of His supernatural abilities that He could currently mobilize!
The "Ten Thousand Demons Tower" delivered a crushing blow first, followed by the weakening effect of the "Falling Treasure Immortal Coins"!
Two celestial artifacts from the "Tianlan Star" were separated by an endless galaxy. They manifested their power one after the other, forcefully interrupting, delaying, and imposing layers of restraint on the deadly attack of a Demon God in the Integration Realm!
"Chance!"
Li Yunjing mustered his true energy, straightened up abruptly, and said in a hoarse but resolute voice, "The demon god is under control! Stabilize the defenses and repair the formation! Quickly!"
Without him saying more, Yu Chenzi, Bingfeng, and all the Nascent Soul True Monarchs, cultivators, and demon beasts who still had the strength to spare seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Yu Chenzi swung his whisk wildly, drawing upon the remaining power of the "Zhou Tian Star Array" to frantically absorb the spiritual energy of the starry sky and repair the damaged array base.
The Ice Phoenix cried out, leading its army of demonic beasts to exhale icy breath, constructing thick ice walls in front of the barrier to slow the onslaught of the demonic tide.
The cultivators generously used their last spirit stones and pills to repair the light barrier and heal the wounded.
During this brief respite, the entire defense system of the "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" was like a campfire that was about to go out being fueled with new fuel, burning tenaciously and becoming stable again!
"Roar……"
Deep within the demonic clouds, the rage of the Void Demon God burned as if it were a tangible force, causing the demonic energy of the entire starry sky to boil.
"Let's see how long you inanimate objects can hold out!"
His cold, giant eyes were fixed on the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," or more accurately, on the gradually dissipating phantom of the "Ten Thousand Demon Tower" and the traces of the "Falling Treasure Immortal Coins."
Twice obstructed by ant-like resistance forces using external objects, this had thoroughly enraged the overlord of the stars.
"I will...crush you with my own hands..."
Whispers containing an endless will to destroy echoed deep within the soul of every living being.
The giant claw covered in scales slowly rose again. This time, the demonic light condensing on it was even deeper, and the destructive lightning was even denser. Clearly, it was no longer holding back and was about to use its true power to settle the world in one fell swoop!
However, just as His power reached its peak and He was about to strike again with overwhelming force, an anomaly occurred, and He was reborn!
It did not come from "Tianlan Star", but from "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" itself, from the deepest part of "Meteor Cliff", a core area that was considered a forbidden zone and which even the demons had never explored in depth!
"Boom..."
A deep, muffled sound, as if it came from the deepest depths of the underworld or from the distant past, suddenly rang out!
The heartbeat wasn't loud, but it possessed a strange penetrating power, ignoring spatial distance, the isolation of the array, and even the blockade of demonic energy. It clearly entered the ears of every living being on the battlefield, or more accurately, it resounded directly deep within their very souls!
"Boom...boom..."
The heartbeat was slow and strong, carrying an ancient, vast, and seemingly ancient presence that had been dormant for countless ages, slowly awakening!
As the heartbeat sounded, the entire "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals" began to tremble slightly and rhythmically.
Deep within Meteor Cliff, the perpetually swirling chaotic mist began to surge violently, as if some enormous creature were turning over within it!
An indescribable aura, far more ancient, vast, and unfathomable than that of the Ice Phoenix, began to emanate from the depths of the earth like a dormant volcano!
This aura is neither spiritual nor demonic, but a more primal, more fundamental aura... a chaotic aura!
"This...this is..."
Yu Chenzi stopped what he was doing and stared in horror toward the direction of "Meteor Cliff".
"What's about to wake up?"
The Blood Demon Ancestor also restrained his madness, his blood dragon coiled up, warily sensing the ancient pressure that made his soul tremble.
As the ice phoenix soared through the air, its icy blue eyes revealed an extremely solemn expression for the first time, even one tinged with awe.
She had lived here for a long time and vaguely knew that some extremely terrifying existence was sleeping deep in the "Meteor Cliff," but she never thought that it would awaken at this moment!
Li Yunjing was also deeply shaken. He activated his "Creation Divine Eye" to its fullest extent and vaguely saw that deep within the surging chaotic mist, there seemed to be a pair of eyes as large as the sun and moon, slowly opening a crack...
Those eyes held no emotion, no good or evil, only endless chaos and the vicissitudes of time.
The demon army was clearly disturbed by this sudden turn of events.
The lowly monsters instinctively felt fear, and their roars became chaotic.
Even the Void Demon God, which was poised to unleash its power deep within the Demon Cloud, had its terrifying attack momentarily halted!
For the first time, His cold, enormous eyes revealed an emotion beyond anger!
It was surprise, it was solemnity, and even... a very subtle sense of apprehension!
The "Burial Realm of Immortals"... This ancient ruin named "Burial Realm" holds secrets buried deep within it that seem to far exceed the expectations of the Demon Clan and even the "Tianlan Alliance"!
"Dong dong dong..."
The heartbeats, one after another, were like the beating of war drums, striking the hearts of every living being.
The chaotic aura grew increasingly intense, spreading from the depths of "Meteor Cliff," beginning to rival the demonic energy and even subtly repelling it.
Those enormous eyes hidden in the chaos seemed to open completely, indifferently "looking" at the outside world, at the boundless demonic tide, and at the void demon god deep within the demonic clouds.
An eerie silence fell over the battlefield.
Only the ancient heartbeat and the demon god's furious roar of demonic energy stood in silent confrontation.
The outcome of the final battle has become unpredictable once again due to this sudden change.
Is it a blessing?
Is it a disaster?
No one knows.
But all the survivors understood that the true depths of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals" were perhaps only just beginning to be revealed...
"This seemingly hopeless game... has finally seen a change in fortune!"
Li Yunjing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze fixed on the chaotic "Meteor Cliff," with only one thought in his mind.
Just as the ancient heartbeat and the demonic pressure clashed, and the atmosphere on the battlefield became extremely tense.
"Boom!!!"
In the heart of the desert, within the core area of the "Ancient Burial Realm of Immortals," the largest ancient teleportation array, which connects to "Tianlan Star," suddenly erupted with unprecedented brilliance!
A beam of light shot into the sky, tearing apart the pervasive demonic energy and chaos, like a pillar of light supporting the heavens and the earth!
Immediately afterwards, an incomparably sharp sword intent, seemingly capable of severing all laws in the world, emanated from the pillar of light!
This sword intent was so pure and so powerful that even the falling ice crystals and dissipating demonic energy in the air were forced to avoid it!
The beam of light slowly dissipated, revealing a vast army within!
The leader was dressed in a simple blue robe and had an ordinary face, but his eyes were surprisingly bright, as if they contained an endless galaxy and a shattered void.
He stood with his hands behind his back, exuding no imposing aura, yet he naturally became the center of the world, as if he were the embodiment of the laws of the sword!
It was none other than the other vice leader of the "Tianlan Alliance," a peerless expert on "Tianlan Star" renowned for his swordsmanship, the Taixu Sword Master!
Behind him stood tens of thousands of cultivators, densely packed and in orderly ranks!
These cultivators were completely different from the exhausted "Burial Immortal Ancient Realm" defenders. Their armor was gleaming, their magical artifacts were shimmering, their aura was full and sharp, and their eyes were filled with a fighting spirit and conviction to the death!
They are the true core elites urgently drawn from the headquarters of "Tianlan Alliance"!
Among them, the aura of the Nascent Soul Realm exceeded thirty!
There are countless Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators!
"It's the Sword Master of Taixu!"
"Reinforcements from headquarters have arrived!"
"We are saved!"
……
In an instant, the guards, who had been filled with doubt and despair due to the awakening of the ancient being and the pressure of the demon god, erupted in deafening cheers!
The low morale was instantly boosted to its peak, as if injected with a powerful stimulant!
Li Yunjing, Yu Chenzi, and the others were also greatly encouraged!
The Taixu Sword Master personally led the team, bringing not only tens of thousands of fresh troops, but also the unwavering will of "Tianlan Star" to fight to the death!
With such a guarantee, Li Yunjing and the three vice leaders finally felt more at ease.
Otherwise, if one hesitates and is undecided about whether to fight or retreat, how can one exert the greatest strength?
The Sword Master of Taixu's gaze swept across the entire scene in an instant, taking in the tragic battlefield, the crumbling barriers, the surging demonic tide, and the ancient wills and demon gods in confrontation.
His gaze lingered briefly on the ice phoenix, a hint of surprise flashing across his eyes, before finally settling on the chaotic depths of the "Meteor Cliff," his brow twitching almost imperceptibly.
