The True Spirit transmitted a message in the air, and Li Yingqi and Lian Xing instantly understood White Eyebrows's meaning. Their consciousnesses separated in an instant, and they each reduced their magical Magic Power. The whistling sword energy in the sky gradually became quieter.
As the two below completely separated their divine senses and Magic Power, the trajectory in the air instantly changed from one to two. The Magic Power stopped flowing in the air, and the sword techniques in their hands changed several times. Their divine senses guided the sword light in the air to swirl back.
The two men's Niwan Palaces opened instantly, a cold glint flashed in their eyes, and the sharp sword light vanished without a trace.
Li Yingqi turned to look at Lian Xing, and at that moment Lian Xing also turned to look at her. After ending their telepathic connection, the two of them looked at each other at the same time.
They both saw surprise in each other's eyes, while Lian Xing's eyes held a hint of unease.
He had a brief spiritual connection with Li Yingqi when their swords clashed, and he felt an incredibly familiar aura in Li Yingqi's heart, as if he knew him very well.
Lian Xing, reborn from the ashes, has respect for Li Yingqi, but no longer harbors the same feelings. This is why the combination of Lian Xing and Li Yingqi's swords was successful. Lian Xing, who originally had no ulterior motives, now feels a familiar sensation in his junior sister's heart.
This puzzled him somewhat, but his intuition wouldn't deceive him. He had sensed the expectation in his junior sister's eyes before, but he hadn't felt much excitement. However, at the moment of their union, he seemed to understand his junior sister's feelings and also realized his intuition.
" Lian Xing, Yingqi, the successful combination of your swords is a great fortune for Mount Emei and a blessing for the righteous sects. From now on, when Blood Alliance cultivators attack, you can also go out into battle to defend them. I estimate that the flames of war will soon be ignited across this land!"
"Now that Mount Emei has combined its two swords, I should return to Mount Wutai to guard it. If the Blood Alliance cultivators attack, I hope Fellow White Eyebrows will inform all the righteous sects so we can help each other and advance or retreat together!"
"As is the case, Mount Emei is willing to stand with Mount Wutai in the face of this common enemy. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Zunsheng Daoist Zunsheng for coming to protect us. Mount Emei is deeply grateful!"
White Eyebrows and Zunsheng had a conversation in the hall. As Earth Immortal, they were more sensitive to the situation in the world. Therefore, after the two swords were combined, Zun Zunsheng was afraid that the Blood Alliance cultivators would not let it go, so he wanted to return to Mount Wutai to guard it.
For Mount Emei, the two factions have already formed an alliance, and they can assist each other by sending communication talismans.
Although the Blood Alliance cultivators may have already obtained the opportunity from Chi You Blood Cave, White Eyebrows still didn't believe that a single drop of Chi You Essence Blood could create several powerful cultivators at the Immortal Realm for the Blood Alliance.
He was confident in his profound Magic Power and the blessing of the Haotian Mirror, believing that no Earth Immortal could harm him!
With the addition Zunsheng Zun Sheng, an Earth Immortal, and now the Twin Sword Fusion of Lian Xing and Li Yingqi, who can also be considered a powerful individual with the combat strength of Earth Immortal, it seems that there are at least three Immortal Realm among the righteous faction.
Despite the ever-changing situation, White Eyebrows still believes that as long as the righteous forces are strong enough, the evil forces will have to think twice before trying to reshuffle the deck.
After Master Zunsheng finished speaking, he and White Eyebrows bowed respectfully, then nodded slightly to Li Yingqi and Lian Xing on the summit. His figure gradually blurred, and the aura of the Earth Immortal above Mount Emei Range weakened slightly.
White Eyebrows raised his head, his eyes sparkling with starlight that seemed about to emerge, the light reflecting off the needles of the leaves seeming to soar beyond the sky. He also felt an inexplicable sense of urgency regarding the current situation.
Mount Emei can't wait any longer; they must find the Blood Alliance cultivators and annihilate them. As for their obtaining Chi You Essence Blood...
White Eyebrows seems to have gained enough confidence now!
" Yingqi, Lian Xing, you two continue refining your flying swords. Soon, Mount Emei will surely face the Blood Alliance traitors. Our survival will depend on the outcome of this battle!"
"Your disciple will obey your instructions!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yingqi and Lian Xing bowed to White Eyebrows. They both sensed an impending storm in White Eyebrows's words, and they seemed to have a deeper understanding of the necessity of the two swords combining their strengths.
White Eyebrows watched the two figures disappear into the clouds and mist. He stood alone in the main hall at the summit. In the current situation, he could no longer concentrate on his seclusion. He unconsciously recalled his various deeds under the Haotian Mirror.
From the moment the Blood Alliance traitors knocked on the door to the moment they tore through space and entered the barrier, all of these events happened almost in quick succession. While it seemed that he had been in control of the situation thanks to the Haotian Mirror, upon closer reflection, it also seemed that he had been led by the nose by the traitors the whole time.
Thinking of the Emperor's will and the mysterious small world within the spatial barrier, especially within the barrier itself, when he carelessly released his True Spirit to capture the thief, he was injured by the Emperor's will within the barrier, while the Blood Alliance thief disappeared without a trace.
White Eyebrows had also seen Xu Long in the small world. He firmly believed that under the dual constraints of the Haotian Mirror Seal and the remains of the Great Emperor, Xu Long would inevitably find it difficult to escape the small world.
After the Haotian Mirror seal releases its vast energy, the remains of the Great Emperor will have to deal with it with all his might and will be unable to imprison everything in the small world again. Xu Long will inevitably be destroyed under the rolling energy.
White Eyebrows stood in the hall with a furrowed brow, gazing at the distant sky, his mind racing but unable to find a definite answer.
He suddenly remembered the strange array diagram behind the Blood Alliance traitor, and his heart skipped a beat. Perhaps that Blood Alliance traitor didn't...
His aged face was filled with doubt, and the peak that usually shone brightly in the clouds and mist seemed somewhat dim in his eyes.
The howling wind swept across the mountaintop, and the cranes scattered in all directions, their wings flapping. Outside the hall, the thousand-year-old pine tree swayed precariously in the wind.
The Jade Pivot Sect's mountain gate.
Lush forests stretch along both banks of the river valley, and rolling hills dot the rapids. Meltwater from the snow-capped peaks converges here to form a crescent-shaped bay. A gentle breeze ripples the water as it flows through the valley, and the bamboo groves rustle in the wind.
The valley connects to the hills, stretching out to the distant mountain ranges. One after another, seas of flowers are scattered across the land, and from a distance, the undulating tea trees stretch from the ground to the sky.
Unlike other spiritual vein dojos, the mountains here are not particularly high. They are simply a row of hills connected on both sides of the valley, with a turbulent stream faintly linking the hills together, resembling a green necklace on the earth, while the towering mountains are like jewels on the necklace.
Relying on this river, the mountains are connected. When viewed from above, the land is covered with verdant peaks and green gardens. The rushing water slowly stops at a bay of clear water, and the scene reflected in the water and sky is like a natural landscape painting.
Surrounded by mountains, the hills are mostly dark green and covered with evergreen trees. Among the layers of mountains, only one fiery red hill stands out.
Nestled amidst lush greenery, it appears both incongruous and perfectly harmonious. A cool mountain breeze sweeps through, making the leaves on the mountain peaks seem to burst into flames.
Buzz!
A chilling sword light descended from the sky, and a crisp sword cry echoed across the land for miles.
A streak of light flashed across the sky, rapidly magnifying tenfold as it fell through the air. By the time one looked, the sound of a sword's cry had not yet faded, but the gust of wind beside the sword's light was already upon them.
A sharp sword light was reflected in the calm blue waves. It was only a tiny speck of light a moment ago, but as it drew closer, it became like a storm. The approaching sword light tore apart the landscape painting in the blue waves, and the dense bamboo and trees among the mountains below bent in the strong wind generated by the sword energy.
The sword light came hurtling in, and just as it was about to plunge into the blue waves and shatter the turbulent current, suddenly a precious light opened and closed on both sides of the blue waves, and a resilient energy emerged in the river.
The river, flowing upstream and downstream, pulls along the towering mountains, subtly enclosing a region of the land like a moat.
As energy burst forth, the shadows of several flags fluttered in the air, and what were originally ordinary hills became the foundation of an array.
A deafening roar echoed across the azure waters, instantly shattering the tranquil lake as the sword light propelled the powerful energy that surged towards the lake's bottom.
Water droplets suddenly rose from the surface of the waves, spreading across the sky like clouds and rain. As the energy dissipated, the water droplets danced and fell from the sky, while the sword light, which opened and closed, remained untouched by a single drop of water when it paused on the blue waves.
The calm blue waves rippled instantly, the supple energy within soothing the turbulent currents upstream. A moment later, the energy connections across the hills were complete, the shadows floating in the sky solidified, and the sword light was locked onto the blue waves by a heavy aura of precious light.
"Where did this thief come from, daring to knock on the gates of my Jade Pivot Sect!"
After the mountain-protecting formation was activated, a furious, sharp rebuke echoed through the overlapping valleys and mountains.
Although the voice sounded like that of a woman, it was full of heroic spirit. The surging magical Magic Power emanating from her throat made the rushing river tremble, and droplets of water suddenly rose on the surface.
The sword light, carrying the force of thunder and rain, shattered the resilient energy within the azure waves, causing the Jade Pivot Sect's grand formation to slow its assembly for a moment. It was likely that even the Jade Pivot Sect's great cultivators had not anticipated that the sword light would arrive so swiftly.
A fierce sword light burst forth in an instant, and the Power of Oblivion dispersed the energy contained in the blue waves. Although the mountain-protecting formation was stable, it was still a beat too slow to activate.
At this moment, the female cultivators of the Jade Pivot Sect immediately assembled a mountain-protecting formation following the sword light, and then rebuked the invading enemies outside the mountain.
Dense shadows pressed down in the sky, making the surrounding air instantly feel unusually heavy, but the sword light standing above the blue waves showed no sign of turning back.
" Mo Yu, the Grand Protector under the Lord of Youquan Alliance, has come to pay respects to Senior Hong Gu!"
"Hmph! Where did this Blood Alliance traitor come from, so arrogant! Daring to trespass on the gates of my Jade Pivot Sect, you should think twice before you act!"
A casual remark came from the clouds, as if responding to the earlier angry shout, but the great cultivator of the Jade Pivot Sect did not appreciate it.
The shadows in the sky gradually disappeared, and flags almost became visible. The blue waves below re-condensed their immense energy. The lake surface, seemingly as calm as water, exuded an extremely oppressive atmosphere.
The turbulent currents flowed upstream and downstream, encircling the surrounding mountain peaks. As the energy transmitted by the flowing water gathered on each peak, a giant array flag was revealed on the earth.
With a sudden sinking of the earth, the array flags disappeared deep into the mountainside, and the massive array below seemed to have been activated. The Jade Pivot Sect seemed to be taking the Blood Alliance's invasion very seriously.
Bright flags fluttered in the air. After the formation below was fully activated, the flags moved into position in the air, spinning towards the sword light, the sounds of wind and thunder within them moving heaven and earth.
As the flag unfurled, the Power of Laws emanated from it. This was a natural phenomenon of a great cultivator combined with an advanced formation. The interplay of energies between the illusory and the real made it difficult for the will to discern. The Jade Pivot Sect was indeed a major sect of formations with a thousand-year history, and at this moment, it seemed to possess many wondrous aspects.
After being locked onto in an instant, the sword light neither dodged nor evaded, but simply slowly twisted itself on the blue waves, seemingly unconcerned about the strange celestial phenomenon about to descend from the sky.
The Jade Pivot Sect cultivators showed no mercy upon hearing the visitor's words, "I wish to see Senior Hong Gu." The activation of the mountain-protecting array and the manifestation of the Power of Laws in the air made it clear that the Jade Pivot Sect, a major sect of array formations that had been peaceful for a thousand years, seemed poised to make its name resound throughout the world once again.
The atmosphere on the battlefield grew increasingly tense. The howling mountain winds had long since subsided, and the rushing river flowing between the peaks was suppressed to the point of not making a sound. The air seemed exceptionally heavy.
Suddenly, darkness fell upon the azure waves, and the strange flag above seemed about to fall, like a mountain about to press down on them. The atmosphere above the azure waves had become extremely still.
With a whooshing sound, the sword shattered the eerily quiet atmosphere on the blue waves. A splash suddenly rose in the turbulent water, and the sword light that had been stationary moved lightly, the trajectory of the sheath still reflected on the lake surface. The sword light that appeared in the sky had already broken through a layer of energy.
A low "humph" came from the valley, and the strange banners above opened automatically in an instant. The protruding sword light cut into the formation as easily as cutting tofu. Before the sword energy could wreak havoc in it, the opened banners closed again in an instant.
The closed and closed flags spun in unison, connected by the Power of Laws within each flag. The will could not discern any flaws in their arrangement. The spinning flags rapidly closed, intending to completely trap the sword light.
The energy flowing between the real and the illusory was almost overwhelming, and an even stronger binding force than before was evident in the air. Perhaps knowing that the invading enemy was not easy to deal with, the great cultivator of the Jade Pivot Sect used his ultimate move right from the start, determined to force the intruder out under the heavy power of the formation.
The sword light initially broke through the illusion within the banner, which was merely a phantom. Once it broke through, the true form of the array was revealed. This array was driven by a great cultivator, and with the energy boost from the azure waves below, its combat power was bound to be incredibly formidable.
The sword light initially appeared rather passive upon entering the formation, its energy shifting between illusion and reality, preventing it from attacking easily.
