As everyone's attention was completely drawn to the shell, the massive array in the sky trembled violently, and a deafening boom echoed through the Mount Emei Range.
The towering celestial phenomenon didn't even last a moment under the cannonballs; the scorching energy instantly ignited the vegetation on the mountain peaks. The two figures behind the precious light were violently thrown back as if they had been severely impacted.
As the shell struck, the entire mountain collapsed with a deafening roar. The thick dust from the landslide obscured the Mount Emei Range. After a burst of scalding energy, the shell's energy was finally released.
However, beneath the smoke and dust, it was already a sea of fire. Relying on the chaotic energy, the continuous wildfires climbed Wuji between the various peaks. The sacred Mount Emei Range was now completely shrouded in flames and smoke.
The immense energy destroyed the entire mountain, burying the two people on the peak into the dust. Xu Long put away the huge cannon barrel, and his figure swayed violently in the air.
The attack had exhausted his mind and body. The energy on the array was compressed to its limit and condensed into a single strike. The energy that suddenly erupted was earth-shattering, and it seemed to pose no threat in the dust below.
Then he focused his attention back on the sword light. When the cannonballs fell on Mount Emei, the two sword energies in the air had already shown signs of weakness, and their speed in chasing the sword light suddenly slowed down.
After Li Yingqi and Lian Xing lost control of their consciousness, the sword energy showed signs of disorder again. At this moment, the sword light in front stopped advancing for a moment, twisted its blade under the sky, rolled once in front of the two sword energies, and then quickly rose into the air.
Xu Long's magical Magic Power surged through the sword, and the bursting Power of Oblivion resembled a dazzling star. The sword light, which had been gathering momentum, seized the opportunity and slashed fiercely at the two swords behind him.
boom!
A tremendous sound suddenly erupted from the sky, and immense Magic Power poured onto the two sword energies in an instant.
Before the enormous sound even occurred, a ball of heavenly fire was generated from the impact. The collision between metal and steel scorched the sky until it was a deep red, and the burning heavenly fire ignited the clouds in the sky.
A massive shockwave emanated from the three sword lights, the chaotic energy intertwining and pushing each other towards the vast sky. After releasing its energy, the sword lights began to swirl away.
At the center of the collision, the two sword energies also released their violent energy under the attack of the sword light. Then, due to the lack of divine consciousness to continue controlling them, the chaotic energy generated in the sword light offensive sent them flying backward one by one.
A whooshing sound echoed over the Mount Emei Range as two sword energies flew back into the dust from the sky. The trails they left in the air were still clearly visible, but the thick dust had already buried the two sword energies.
At the summit, White Eyebrows released his True Spirit. He had been watching the battle between Xu Long and the Twin Swords. When he saw the smoke and dust billowing and enveloping the sky behind him, his heart couldn't help but tremble.
The young man exerted immense pressure on him. After Fusion the Haotian Mirror, a blood dragon suddenly emerged from the opponent's Blood Domain. The Azure Edge intertwined with the sword formation, and the magic seals resisted the blood dragon.
Since Fusion with the Haotian Mirror, this is only the second time that the veteran Earth Immortal White Eyebrows has felt so incredibly frustrated. The first time was when the remnants of an emperor in the void made him retreat voluntarily.
Who exactly is this Blood Alliance villain? His bizarre methods keep coming one after another. Why hasn't Zunsheng Daoist Zunsheng's aid arrived at Mount Emei yet? Could something have happened to him on the way? Is today perhaps Mount Emei's calamity, a calamity for the righteous sects?
A multitude of thoughts flashed through White Eyebrows's mind. What he cared about most was Zunsheng's assistance, but little did he know that Zun Zunsheng was still breaking through the formation!
The young man opposite had already noticed Xu Long's battle situation. Although White Eyebrows's fighting strength should not be underestimated, his idea of a quick victory remained unchanged.
The young man's eyes sharpened, and bursts of energy opened up within the Blood Domain, causing the sword formation in the air and the blood dragon to unleash even stronger power.
White Eyebrows's gaze turned gloomy, his aged face fell silent, and there was a resolute air between his brows. The figure in the moon-colored robe stood alone between heaven and earth.
Facing the impending doom of Mount Emei, this may be the last battle, and also the loneliest one!
White Eyebrows has been famous for a long time. When he reached the Immortal Realm, he also saw through life and death. When faced with this situation today, he inexplicably thought of Dan Chenzi's feelings under Youquan's sharp edge. It seemed that he had reached a dead end, but sword cultivators would never back down!
A series of mysterious lights burst forth from the Moonlit Robe, and two completely different energies merged within White Eyebrows's body. The rules of heaven and earth reversed at this moment, and the starlight dancing in his eyes condensed into a magic seal in front of him. The Azure Edge in the air roared and surged with a surge of Magic Power.
Looking at the young man amidst the bloodshed, it seems that the era of White Eyebrows has passed, but White Eyebrows's name still resounds in Mount Emei!
clank!
As Xu Long's sword light swirled, a movement finally arose in the silent dust below. Two clear sword cries burst forth from the dust, the sounds carrying extremely far through the air.
Before the sword's cry had even faded, the smoke and dust below were swept away by two sharp sword energies. The thick smoke and dust were instantly cut apart as if they were solid. The surge of Magic Power on the two sword energies proved that Li Yingqi and Lian Xing, who had been under the cannonballs, had not been completely annihilated.
Stubborn to the end!
A cold glint flashed in Xu Long, and the swirling sword light swept towards the two swords again. The three sword lights in the air merged once more, and three trajectories appeared on the horizon.
The force of the sword distorted the spatial barriers. Both sides were using all their magical Magic Power in this final strike from the smoke and dust, determined to break through the sword light and turn the tide of the battle.
The clanging sound echoed across the sky, and bursts of firelight illuminated the earth, creating a flickering effect. Scalding energy continuously erupted from the sky, and three sword lights intertwined beneath the heavens.
The contact between their Magic Power caused their consciousness and will to collide violently. The shock in their minds and the howling in the air were of the same frequency. Li Yingqi and Lian Xing slowly walked out from the smoke and dust.
Their blue robes were now tattered, and the chaotic Magic Power within their bodies had returned to normal. Their faces wore a resolute expression.
Presumably, they learned of Zunsheng's failure to come to their aid from White Eyebrows's True Spirit transmission. At this moment, the Blood Alliance traitors are rampant and powerful, and Mount Emei is in dire straits today. With no way to retreat, they have no choice but to fight to the death.
The two people who were hit by the Precision Sniping did not perish completely. Before the layers of magic Magic Power, there were strange phenomena of heaven and earth and the Power of Laws. The shell shattered the phenomena and reversed the Power of Laws before it came into contact with the light shield formed by the Magic Power.
The two seemed to feel the overwhelming force of the cannonball, as if the sky were collapsing. Under the immense pressure, they managed to barely survive. It seemed that the great cultivator who had combined the two swords was not so easy to perish. Then, with the two of them joining forces again, Heaven Strike and Thunder Flame shot out once more.
This time, under the threat of death, the power unleashed by the two swords was ten times more intense. In their death throes, with no way out, they both rushed towards Xu Long in the air. Xu Long's eyes were indifferent. If he wanted to fight like a cornered beast, he should first see if he was qualified!
Buzz!
The sword light that swept through the air roared angrily, its fury filled with intense disdain as it faced its defeated opponent who was attacking again.
Guided by Xu Long's will, the Power of Oblivion was frantically poured into the sword, and a dazzling star rose into the sky, the World-Breaking Blade bursting forth with a chilling sword light.
The two sword energies opposite immediately merged within the sword light. The previous agile tactics seemed to be ineffective against the sword light, as the two incoming sword energies continued to merge as they spun in the air.
The trails drawn by the tail sheaths drew ever closer until the two trails completely merged into one in the air. The sword energy of the two swords, now joined together, surged in the air, showing no hesitation in facing a falling star.
Below, the Magic Power emanating from Li Yingqi and Lian Xing seemed inexhaustible. A red sun slowly rose beneath the stars, and the two chose a head-on clash, the most suitable way for sword cultivators to fight!
clang!
Before the resounding clang of metal had faded and the energy from the impact had been released, a series of clanging sounds echoed through the sky.
As a burst of flame erupted, the sharp edges of the two sword lights stretched across the sky like ribbons, revealing a spatial barrier that was exceptionally fragile within the sword light, and a massive shockwave enveloped the sky.
The light above the earth suddenly dimmed, and a shockwave carrying chaotic energy swept out, spreading Wuji across the sky. The sword light that had been drawn away instantly twisted back.
Xu Long tightly controlled the sword light with his mind, and it swept towards the sword energy. The stars in the sky, which had just gone out, were stimulated to shine brightly again by a burst of energy. The sword energy under the stars was not to be outdone, and a red sun burst forth from the chaotic energy.
Neither side was willing to let the other go in their final strike. The array behind Xu Long was still slowly rotating, with a faint light flickering above the nine stars.
Li Yingqi and Lian Xing below were deathly pale, their magical Magic Power nearly exhausted.
When the Power of Oblivion invaded the sword energy, they had to use more Magic Power to block it. If the Power of Oblivion broke through the sword energy, the sword light that followed would instantly take their heads!
Now that they had reached a dead end, a sense of relief arose in their hearts. With their minds in sync, they fought with this feeling, and the combined swords felt as if they were their own limbs.
Even when facing a formidable foe, the combined swordsmen remain high-spirited, their sharp sword energy remains unbreakable, and the energy within their blades remains violently unstoppable!
Li Yingqi and Lian Xing stood before a pile of ruins. The once magnificent pavilions and terraces had now turned into broken walls and rubble, and the Mount Emei Range behind them had been forcibly submerged into the earth's crust.
A huge array diagram covered the area above, and the flickering light on the ground was the trail of rampaging sword light.
The once sacred land of immortals has lost its former prosperity. Now, it's more accurate to say that the two are protecting their own righteous Dao Heart rather than saying that they are protecting the Mount Emei Range.
Imperial Edict!
Li Yingqi and Lian Xing stopped in front of the ruins, looking at Xu Long in the air. They suddenly uttered a single word. The two were of one mind, and when they used their Magic Power at this moment when they were at their wits' end, it was as if they were working together perfectly.
As this word was uttered, the Power of Laws of heaven and earth condensed once more, and the unique energy belonging to great cultivators burst forth between heaven and earth—energy that drew upon the rules of the world.
Then, with a thought, the sword energy that was whistling in the air suddenly twisted around. The sword energy, which was attached to the Power of Laws, was extremely sharp. The sword light left behind when it twisted did not dissipate, but turned into afterimages that appeared in the air.
The twisting motion of the sword energy did not stop. With the support of the Power of Laws, a series of afterimages appeared in front of the sword energy. Within the afterimages, a sword energy pulsed like thunder, bringing with it a muffled whistling sound.
After the afterimage solidified, it resembled an iron barrel, with layers of sealed afterimages imprisoning the energy within. Meanwhile, the sword energy inside was still swirling, waiting for the iron barrel to succumb to the pressure, at which point the sword energy within would burst forth with surging energy.
Li Yingqi and Lian Xing below acted as one, watching the sword energy in the air solidify into afterimages. Then, they stretched out one hand to form a sword incantation, using their divine sense to drive the sword energy in the air, which carried a powerful and violent energy towards Xu Long.
The crimson sun twisted and turned behind the afterimages, and the layers of afterimages were filled with dense Geng Metal Qi. The combined sword light contained violent energy, which was compressed into the afterimages when attached with the Power of Laws.
As the crimson sun, formed from sword energy, streaked across the sky, it became somewhat blurry in its afterimage. As the violent energy accumulated within it, a faint force of wind and thunder roared, and the energy of heaven and earth was gathered in an instant.
The two individuals' Power of Laws enveloped this terrifying energy, and the condensed red sun carried an extremely dangerous aura as it arrived!
The two people below formed sword incantations with their hands, their expressions extremely solemn. Their divine senses had already locked onto Xu Long's location, and the rules of the world showed signs of stagnation at this moment.
Xu Long narrowed his eyes under the array diagram. A star in the sky was already poised to strike, with endless Power of Oblivion surging up on it. Although Xu Long was not a great cultivator, the power of his sword at this moment had already seized the might of the heavens!
The sword light flashed, its sharpness about to tear through space; the rays of starlight about to pierce the sky; a glint of light flashed in Xu Long's eyes behind him; the stars in the sky, carrying a vast and mighty force, fell towards the afterimage of the red sun below.
The stars roared through the sky, creating an illusion as if the heavens were collapsing. The sky below was a deep crimson, and the clouds thousands of miles away were transformed into a sea of fire.
In the sky above the Legend of Mount Shu World, fiery clouds rose in patches, and as stars fell, they traced straight trails. Those crimson trails perfectly illustrated what it meant to be a shooting star!
Although Xu Long did not have the cultivation level of a great cultivator, the energy he was unleashing at this moment was indeed the power of a great cultivator!
