The Great Zhou forces Su Xin had brought were formidable. Together with the forces of the Heavenly Court and the Underworld, they were enough to overwhelm the entire Qingcheng Sword Sect.
The Qingcheng Sword Sect's three Yang Spirit Realm warriors had already been unable to contend with the three fighters led by the Great Emperor of Northern Ziwei. And Su Xin's side still had three Yang Spirit Realm experts from the Great Zhou imperial clan.
With those three joining the battle, the Qingcheng Sword Sect's warriors were suddenly in grave danger. Judging by the situation, they would not last more than a few exchanges.
But even if they could not hold out, they still had to try. They hoped the other Four Sword Sects would come to their aid, so every moment they could buy mattered. The three of them even burned their blood essence and fought desperately, all to delay the enemy a little longer.
The Great Emperor of Northern Ziwei and the others knew what was going on, of course. They looked utterly unconcerned. Seeing their opponents fight for their lives, they even slowed their attacks, lest the other side be driven into a corner and injure them in desperation.
If their opponents wanted to drag things out, they could go ahead. Even if they held on until their blood essence was utterly spent, they still would not see a single ally arrive.
Meanwhile, Su Xin led countless Great Zhou warriors straight into action, cutting a path of slaughter into the Qingcheng Sword Sect.
True Qi had already formed a field around Su Xin. It was not a true domain, but a "pseudo-domain" created by the formidable power of his Three-Point Return to Origin Qi.
