Golden Radiance Lit the Hall and Pine-Frost Robes, Ten Thousand Swords Rose to Heaven and Bowed to the Returning Dao
Myriad Phenomena Hall
Because this was the main hall of the True Lord Qingchen, although Ding Chengyu was now handling the sect's mundane affairs, the True Lord was not to be defiled. Therefore, he simply found a side hall to handle all the mundane affairs in the hall.
He looked extremely tired.
Even for Golden Core True Person cultivator, it would be extremely strenuous to stay here for fifteen years without sleep or rest.
But Ding Chengyu didn't complain at all.
He remained silent, reading through battle reports one after another, then annotating them with vermilion ink, and processing each and every mundane Jade Slip before entrusting several disciples in the hall to deliver them properly.
Fifteen years...
He was lost in thought when he suddenly noticed a ray of light gradually shining from outside the hall.
The radiance shone on the jade steps of the palace, spreading little by little until it finally reached him, illuminating half of his body.
"This radiance... could it be that one of our senior uncles or elder brothers in the sect has broken through to the Golden Core?"
Ding Chengyu slowly raised his head, walked to the front of the hall, and looked out at the sky.
Many disciples were seen sitting in the mountain pavilions, hovering on flying magical Law Artifact, or landing on the green stone steps, all looking up at the wandering radiance in the sky, which cast large swaths of clear light, illuminating half of the Jade Spring Sect's mountain gate.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The swords of the disciples in the mountains, the flying swords still being forged, and even those that were broken, all began to hum at this moment. As if touched by something, they stood up straight and towered towards the golden-white light that was floating in the sky, as if they were bowing in worship.
Ding Chengyu didn't recognize him at first.
But in an instant, the golden-white radiance descended from the sky, bringing his gaze to the front of the hall. There stood a handsome Daoist priest, clad in a pine-frost feather robe, his eyes clear and bright, his brows radiant, his aura subtly swirling. Countless points of radiance transformed into tiny golden flowers with delicate stamens, adorned with jade-like tassels, showering down upon him after his appearance. The golden-white radiance circled around him like a bird, so welcoming!
Ding Chengyu's eyes widened suddenly, and it took him a long time to come to his senses before he said, " Dao Child!"
Chen Shuangbai nodded and smiled, "It's me."
Azure Dragon Mountain.
As the battlefront of the Vast Waves Alliance and the Holy Origin Alliance in the Jing Kingdom, the two sides fought here for more than a decade, turning this once lush mountain into a desolate wasteland.
From the sky.
The once lush forests have long been destroyed by the war, leaving only scorched earth and jagged rocks.
The air was thick with the lingering stench of blood and Sha Qi, and the ground was littered with the shattered remains of Law Artifact and dried blood, telling tales of the countless brutal battles fought over the past fifteen years.
The Holy Origin Alliance seemed determined to delay the main force of the Vast Waves Alliance here.
The three Nascent Soul True Lord opposite them held onto this place tightly, and would come to cause trouble every ten days or half a month. Each time, they would leave behind a large number of corpses of various Yin puppets, poisonous insects and beasts, or ghost servants in the mountains and fields, without doing anything about them.
The three Nascent Soul True Lord of the Vast Waves Alliance were also quite exhausted, almost all of them bearing injuries, but they had no time to go into seclusion for cultivation and could only deal with the exhaustion day after day.
That day.
The Holy Origin Alliance launched another attack.
A mighty army of demons surged out from the Black Mountain and the treacherous waters, like a black tide rushing towards the Azure Dragon Mountain defense line.
The Yin puppets, poisonous insects, and venomous beasts of the Celebrated Origin Sect stood at the forefront as the vanguard, while the Transformation Sect spirits and ghost servants of the Huasheng Sect formed the two wings, cunning and treacherous. Finally, bringing up the rear was the demonic army of the Parting Hate Gate, a mobile sword formation composed of dozens of Qi Refining disciples led by several Foundation Establishment disciples, as well as countless strangely shaped flying boats, each carrying numerous demonic sect members!
They roared and charged forward fearlessly!
On Canglao Mountain and the seven surrounding peaks, the array flags erected were activated by streams of Golden Core Law Power. Streams of azure water rose from above, connecting with water vapor above and water veins and earth veins below. In an instant, streams of turquoise water appeared, transforming into towering waves that crashed head-on against the demonic army.
But at this moment, eleven Golden Core suddenly rose slowly from the opposite side, their Divine Ability powers illuminating the sky. Seven poisonous insects covered in brightly colored scales appeared one by one, growing larger in the wind and instantly transforming into the size of small mountains, together resisting wave after wave of towering waves!
"How many times has this happened? Is this all the Vast Waves Alliance has to offer?"
A Golden Core True Person wearing a feathered crown mocked him in this way.
But in the next instant, the wind and clouds in the sky turned, and mysterious array patterns appeared, connecting to form an extremely large array. The array was filled with spiritual light, and in an instant, rolling dark clouds spread out, in which streaks of azure water light could be seen, and then thousands of water thunders poured down like a torrential rain!
One [ Azure Wave Thunder-Nurturing Earth-Covering Formation ] plus another [ Vast Waves Sea-Shaking Great Formation ].
These two formations are considered top-tier among third-tier formations.
At this moment, they fit together perfectly, one governing the earth and the other governing the heavens.
The two great formations complemented each other, with water and lightning intertwining to form a vast blue sky that firmly protected the seven mountain peaks.
The seven poisonous insects, each the size of a small mountain, crashed into the water-mine light barrier, producing a deafening roar. Venom splattered everywhere, and lightning flashed, making it impossible for them to advance even an inch for a moment.
Seeing this, the eight Golden Core cultivators on the other side of the Holy Origin Alliance had already anticipated it.
Or perhaps, after fifteen years of fighting, both sides have pretty much figured out each other's methods.
The Golden Core cultivator with the feathered crown smiled coldly, raised his hand, and shouted, "Disciples, form the [ Li Fire Blazing Light Great Scarlet Sword Formation ]! Today, we will bury this place completely and reduce it to ashes!"
This person is named True Person Heguang, Late Golden Core Stage cultivator, and is Golden Core from the Parting Hate Gate!
This invasion of Azure Dragon Mountain.
Three Golden Core Transformation Sect from the Parting Hate Gate, one from the Celebrated Origin Sect, and three from the Huasheng Sect, along with four Golden Core cultivators who didn't seem to be human, stood a little further away, all coldly watching the two sides fighting below, their eyes filled with icy malice.
On the other hand, there are only six people on this side of Azure Dragon Mountain.
Three from the Jade Spring Sect, three from the Turbid Wave Pavilion... It's not that other sects aren't sending reinforcements, it's just that the three fronts are under pressure, and it's really not good to send more people. Besides, the pressure on the other two fronts is no less than here.
With a command from True Person Heguang, dozens of Foundation Establishment and hundreds of Qi Parting Hate Gate cultivators from the Qi Refining Sect, each holding a formation flag, poured their Law Power into it, transforming it into crimson pillars of light that shot into the sky, intertwining in mid-air to form the outline of a giant sword formation.
Mysterious patterns spread out from the sword formation, and a scorching aura began to spread, as if an invisible volcano was slowly awakening above Azure Dragon Mountain.
The flames grew ever brighter, eventually transforming into a massive, crimson sword phantom tens of feet long, hovering above the sword formation and radiating a chilling, intense heat.
"Today, we will fight our way through Azure Dragon Mountain, penetrate deep into the heart of the Jing Kingdom, and destroy your Vast Waves Alliance!"
