Creak!
Creak!
A strange sound came from the spiritual formation.
“It’s working!”
Chen Xin was overjoyed. Although he did not break the spiritual formation, he could sense that it was trembling. Under the bombardment of the sword qi, the ripples produced were even more effective than the Spiritual Energy Cannons used by the Mystic Yang soldiers.
“Swordsmen, listen up. Condense your sword qi and summon the heavenly sword!”
Chen Xin’s expression turned grave as he raised the Ice Soul Sword high above his head, causing an icy sword aura to gather above him.
Meanwhile, all the Swordsmen pointed their swords at Chen Xin. Waves of white sword qi shot out from their swords and gathered above Chen Xin.
“What a powerful sword qi!”
Huang Shang’s eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at the expanding sword qi above Chen Xin’s head.
He felt a threat from this sword qi. This was the first time he had felt a threat after stepping into the Immortal realm.
“So this is the power of a soldier? He uses the power of spiritual formations to gather power and condense it into his body.”
Huang Shang’s eyes were deep and bright. This was the first time he had seen the power of a soldier.
This spiritual formation was also known as a military formation. It was one of the inheritances obtained by the soldiers.
As the strength of the soldiers increased, the power of the military formation increased exponentially.
Looking at the 300,000 Swordsmen in front of him, Huang Shang felt that they were invincible.
They could stop an expert who had just entered the Immortal realm.
“Slash!”
Just as Huang Shang was thinking, Chen Xin did not stop. Instead, after condensing a large amount of sword qi, he slashed out.
The sword qi which was more than 32 feet tall slashed at the Nether race’s spiritual formation.
Creak!
The sword qi persisted, locked in a deadlock with the spiritual formation. The incessant creaking grated on the nerves, fueling a growing sense of annoyance.
Crack!
A crisp voice suddenly pierced the air. In response, countless cracks spread across the spiritual formation, resembling a shattered mirror. Like a spider’s web, they extended in various directions.
“It worked!”
Chen Xin was overjoyed as he looked at the formation that was about to shatter.
Shatter!
In a matter of moments, the formation was shattered, and the 30-meter-long sword qi dissipated into nothingness.
At this moment, Chen Xin suddenly felt his hair stand on end as a sense of danger appeared in his heart.
“Watch out!”
Huang Shang’s expression changed. Then, he swung his arm and a violent gust blew toward Chen Xin.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. A finger-sized dim light hurtled toward Chen Xin at incredible speed.
Pffft!
It instantly pierced through Chen Xin’s chest and exploded like a flower of blood.
“A-ambush!”
Chen Xin’s face was pale as he looked at the source of the dim light.
“I missed. What a pity!”
A hoarse, metallic voice reverberated through the air, resembling the sound of metal grinding against metal. Then, a slender figure materialized in front of Chen Xin and Huang Shang.
“The patriarch mentioned this as the weakness of the spiritual formation. Anticipating the enemy’s awareness, he tasked me with guarding it.”
“But I did not expect you to be able to break the Nether Protection formation.”
The skinny figure lifted his robe, revealing a ruined body.
His eyes were sunken, and there was no flesh on his face. He was like a skull and looked like a spirit body.
“Lord Huang, be careful.”
Chen Xin’s face paled as the dim light pierced through his chest. Acting on instinct, he twisted his body, narrowly avoiding a direct hit to his heart. Otherwise, he might have met his end.
“But since the spiritual formation has been broken, I’ll show you the power of the Nether race!”
“Hehehe…”
Upon hearing this strange laughter, Huang Shang frowned slightly. He could sense a power on the same level as him from this Nether race being.
This meant that the Nether race before him had also reached the Immortal realm.
“Nether Abyss! Descend!”
A supreme pressure descended from the sky, instantly subduing everyone present.
This pressure was like the power of heaven and earth. It was not something that humans could resist at all. Even Huang Shang felt as if his body was frozen.
On the other side, when Lin Zifeng and Song Yubai saw that the spiritual formation had been broken, they led their soldiers to attack the Nether Royal City.
However, a worldly pressure suddenly rushed out of the Nether Royal City.
As if time had stopped, all the Mystic Yang soldiers, the Red Lotus soldiers, Lin Zifeng, and Song Yubai stopped in their tracks.
“This is?!”
Sensing the might of the world, Mei Changge’s expression changed. Although he also felt this pressure, he was not restricted.
“Lord of the Human race, I know you’re here!”
Suddenly, a divine voice sounded from the Nether Royal City.
Upon hearing this, Mei Changge mounted Blood Flame Qilin and ascended into the sky. It seemed that Blood Flame Qilin, possessing the bloodline of a divine beast, remained unaffected by the power of heaven and earth.
“The patriarch of the Nether race?”
Mei Changge’s expression was calm as his voice spread throughout the entire battlefield.
“I shall see if you have the ability to destroy my Nether race!”
“The Nether Abyss is our Destiny Treasure. I will personally guard it.”
“Break through it and you can destroy the Nether race!”
“If you can’t break through, your forces will be devoured by mine!”
You Sanmeng sat on the throne of the Nether Royal City.
His voice could be heard easily.
“The Nether Abyss, huh? Is this a bet?”
Mei Changge’s eyes held a solemn expression. The Nether Abyss didn’t appear easy to overcome. Yet, at this juncture, he couldn’t afford not to break through it.
Furthermore, he was here to destroy the Nether race.
“Lin Zifeng, Song Yubai, Chen Xin, Huang Shang!”
Mei Changge’s expression was calm as he spoke to the four people below who were frozen by the power of heaven and earth.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
As soon as Mei Changge finished speaking, the four of them felt their bodies recover again. They bowed respectfully to Mei Changge in the sky.
“Lead your soldiers and follow me into the Nether Abyss to destroy the Nether race!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mei Changge flicked his finger and a lotus flower landed on Chen Xin.
In an instant, a green light flashed, and the wound on Chen Xin’s chest vanished. Even the injuries within his body had healed.
Roar!
With a furious roar, the Blood Flame Qilin erupted with blood flames, and four clouds formed by blood flames silently appeared under its feet.
Mei Changge patted Blood Flame Qilin’s head gently and rode it onto a mysterious path that appeared in the sky above the Nether Royal City.
It was the Nether Abyss that You Sanmeng mentioned.
It was created by the Nether race using Destiny Treasures. Moreover, it seemed as though the Nether Royal City was isolated from the outside world, creating a scenario akin to a world within a world.
If he did not break through, he could not approach the Nether Royal City. He had to enter the city no matter what.
Mei Changge also surmised that the Nether race had stationed numerous clansmen within the Nether Abyss.
Therefore, if the Nether Abyss was shattered, the Nether race would be destroyed.
“Mystic Yang soldiers, listen up! Enter the Nether Abyss!”
“Red Lotus soldiers, heed my command. Enter the Nether Abyss!”
“Swordsmen, prepare to enter the Nether Abyss!”
Lin Zifeng and the other two had serious expressions. Then, they shouted at the soldiers behind them.
In the next second, millions of soldiers entered the Nether Abyss that You Sanmeng mentioned.
As for Huang Shang, his expression was solemn as he followed everyone in.
“Nether race, enter the Nether Abyss!”
You Sanmeng’s voice sounded again. In the Nether Royal City, many Nether race beings entered the Nether Abyss, attempting to destroy Mei Changge and the rest.
As for You Sanmeng, he didn’t hesitate. His figure flashed and he fell into it as well.
At this moment, Mei Changge was riding Blood Flame Qilin. After entering the Nether Abyss, he realized that the scene in front of him had changed.
The Nether Royal City disappeared from his eyes, and what appeared in front of him was a straight and dark road.
On either side of the road stood strange-looking statues, eerily lifelike. They appeared as guardians, emanating a peculiar aura.
“Your Majesty!”
Lin Zifeng and the other three led their soldiers and appeared not far from Mei Changge with vigilant and respectful expressions.
