" The Righteous Path Protection Array truly lives up to its name; it's incredibly sturdy." Black Impermanence looked at the white light barrier before him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but it quickly returned to its cold expression. "However, do you think this can stop me? You're too naive!" With that, he circulated the Yin energy within his body, pouring all his cultivation into the Soul-Locking Chain in his hands. Yin flames blazed fiercely on the Soul-Locking Chain, making them grow even thicker, and he blasted them towards the " Righteous Path Protection Array."
With a deafening roar, the Soul-Locking Chain slammed into the white light barrier, causing it to tremble violently. The white light dimmed slightly, and a tiny crack appeared.
"Oh no! The formation is about to be breached!" an elder exclaimed, his voice filled with anxiety. He quickly increased the input of spiritual energy to repair the cracks in the formation.
The other elders also increased their input of spiritual energy, and the white light above the formation intensified once more, gradually repairing the cracks. However, the attacks from the Underworld grew increasingly fierce. Several top experts from the Underworld joined forces to attack, and with the addition of Black Impermanence's Soul-Locking Chain, the light shield of the " Righteous Path Protection Array " grew dimmer and dimmer, and the cracks multiplied, threatening to be breached at any moment.
"This can't go on. The formation will be broken sooner or later. We must take the initiative!" Snow Empress said to Daoist Kunlun and the other sect leaders, her tone firm.
Daoist Kunlun nodded, deeply agreeing, "Good! Sect leaders, follow me and take the initiative to attack and kill the experts from the Underworld, relieving the pressure on the formation! Snow Empress, you are responsible for controlling the Ziwei Emperor Bell to suppress the Yin and evil energy of the Underworld and support us! Qingyunzi, you are responsible for commanding the disciples to hold the formation and prevent the Yin soldiers from taking the opportunity to break through it!"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison.
Subsequently, top experts from various righteous sects, including the Daoist Kunlun, the Wudang Sect Leader, and the Shaolin Sect Abbot, rushed out of the " Righteous Path Protection Array " and charged towards the top experts of the Underworld. The Snow Empress controlled the Ziwei Emperor Bell, which hovered in the air. The Emperor Bell blazed with purple light, its tolling continuously as it bombarded the people of the Underworld. Each toll slayed a group of Yin soldiers while suppressing the Yin energy of the Underworld's top experts. Qingyunzi commanded the disciples of various righteous sects to hold their ground within the array, continuously attacking the charging Yin soldiers and preventing them from breaking through the formation.
A great battle was about to break out. Between heaven and earth, the righteous energy and the evil energy clashed. Sword energy crisscrossed, bells rang, and screams, the sound of clashing weapons, and explosions intertwined, echoing throughout the Kunlun Mountain Range.
The Daoist Kunlun, wielding a cyan whisk swirling with spiritual energy, charged towards a powerful Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation Underworld. With each swing of the whisk, countless cyan spiritual threads Entanglement the Underworld cultivator, each thread containing powerful righteous energy capable of easily eroding his yin and evil aura. The Underworld cultivator's expression changed; he brandished his black longsword, slashing at the cyan spiritual threads, trying to break Entanglement. However, the spiritual threads were extremely resilient; no matter how he slashed, he couldn't cut them. Instead, he was Entanglement tighter and tighter, his yin and evil aura continuously being eroded by the spiritual threads.
"Damn it!" the Underworld expert roared, trying to circulate his Yin energy to break free from the Entanglement of the spiritual energy threads. However, the Daoist Kunlun seized the opportunity to step forward, waving his whisk, and a powerful azure spiritual energy blasted towards the Underworld expert's chest. The Underworld expert had no time to dodge and was struck by the spiritual energy. His body was instantly thrown backward, spitting out a mouthful of black blood. His aura weakened, and his injuries were extremely serious.
The Wudang Sect leader, wielding a longsword, engaged in a fierce battle with another Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation Underworld. With each swing of the sword, azure sword energy crisscrossed, carrying a chilling sharpness, aiming directly for the Underworld expert's vitals. The Underworld expert, wielding a black spear, used ruthless and deadly techniques, fighting the Wudang Sect leader to a standstill. The two exchanged blows for dozens of rounds, neither gaining the upper hand. However, the Wudang Sect leader's righteous aura suppressed the Underworld expert's sinister energy. As the battle continued, the Underworld expert's aura weakened, and he gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
The abbot of the Shaolin Sect, hands clasped in prayer, unleashed the Shaolin Sect Shaolin's Seventy-Two Supreme Arts, a supreme martial art, and engaged in fierce combat with a powerful underworld expert at the Seventh Transformation of Dragon Transformation Underworld. The abbot's palm strikes were powerful and vigorous, imbued with immense righteous energy; each strike carried earth-shattering force as it hurtled towards the Underworld expert. The Underworld expert, agile and wielding black claws, relentlessly attacked the abbot with vicious moves. The two were evenly matched, their battle exceptionally intense. The surrounding air was distorted by their combined power, and snow was whipped up, creating a massive blizzard.
The Snow Empress manipulated the Ziwei Emperor Bell, traversing the sky, its tolling continuously as it struck the Yin soldiers and top experts of the Underworld. Each strike of the Emperor Bell generated immense power, slaying hordes of Yin soldiers while suppressing the Yin energy of the Underworld's top experts. On one occasion, an Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation Underworld attempted to ambush Daoist Kunlun. Sensing this, the Snow Empress immediately manipulated the Underworld Emperor Bell, hurling it at the expert. The Emperor Bell, radiating a blazing purple light, instantly arrived before the Underworld, giving her no chance to resist. "Boom!" With a deafening roar, the Underworld expert was struck by the Emperor Bell, her body instantly shattered into pieces, turning into a wisp of black smoke that dissipated into the air, utterly perishing.
Qingyunzi commanded the disciples of various righteous sects, who held firm within the " Righteous Path Protection Array," continuously attacking the charging Yin soldiers. The disciples worked together seamlessly, their azure sword energy, red spells, and golden talismans intertwining to form a powerful barrier, blocking the Yin soldiers. Although the Yin soldiers were numerous, the disciples' strength was not to be underestimated, and with the array's reinforcement, the Yin soldiers found it difficult to break through its defenses. They could only attack frantically from outside the array, unable to get even a step closer.
Looking at the scene before him, Black Impermanence's face grew increasingly grim, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected the combined power of the major righteous sects to be so formidable. Moreover, the Snow Empress wielded the Ziwei Emperor Bell, its power boundless, having already slaughtered many of his experts and Yin soldiers. If this continued, his subordinates would be wiped out sooner or later, and his ambition to seize the Emperor Bell and complete his grand undertaking in the Underworld would be shattered.
"Damn it! You righteous scum, how stubborn you are!" Black Impermanence roared, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. "Since you refuse to surrender, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
