"But imdiately, once it is discovered that his projection cannot take down a minor world, that Heavenly Venerable will definitely co in person!"
Lin Yi said, leaning on his cane with a heavy tone.
"Has the master returned yet?"
"No, but Wei Qing has already sent out the notification." As the Grand Steward of the ghost realm and the only one stationed at the Star Demon, Lin Wai could not leave the Land for God Worship. Therefore, he was directly appointed as the Grand Steward, in charge of the regular operation of the entire ghost realm.
As the two spoke, cracks suddenly appeared in the sky’s array.
The pale yellow array, like cracked yellow glaze, began to fracture more and more on its surface.
"Here it cos!!"
Lin Wai looked up at the sky, his black robe flapping wildly in the howling wind.
Lin Yi also stared at the sky with a tense expression.
"If it’s just a projection, we should be able to hold it off!"
Lin Wai remained silent. Although they were rely Taoist soldiers, at their level, apart from lacking souls, they were no different from ordinary people.
They too knew the fear of life and death, happiness and sorrow; facing an enemy of the Heavenly Venerable level, even they could not help but lose confidence.
**************
Within the great array.
"Begin!"
As the core of the entire array, Wei Qing was also the disciple of Lin Xin with the highest cultivation so far.
He stared at the sky with an extrely solemn expression.
With one hand raised high, a crescent-like pale silver blade whirled and danced behind him.
At his shout, the power of hundreds of fifth-rank disciples and thousands of fifth-rank snow monsters converged at once.
They ford a terrifying pale green stream of elental force, surging downward into the central formation patterns.
Underground, hundreds of pre-buried fusion cores burst one after another, releasing a massive amount of Earth System Elental Force.
The formation patterns lit up, forming pale yellow spikes that grew increasingly sharp and bright.
A purifying force that everyone envisioned as piercing through everything rged into the great array.
"Polar Region!"
All the fifth rank shouted simultaneously, triggering the Polar Region.
With a snap, everything turned gray. The giant hand was also at this mont crushing the array, pressing down upon the people below. At the sa ti, it was slowed by the imnsity of the Polar Region’s power.
"Kill!" Wei Qing roared.
In an instant, spikes of the sa size and color surged upward from the ground, shooting out fiercely.
They t the giant hand head-on, viciously stabbing into it.
"Pugh!"
The two enormous objects ca into direct contact, and imdiately the entire ghost realm trembled.
The explosion of elental force ricocheted back, rushing violently towards the nearly powerless disciples below.
Ah!
The crowd exclaid in shock but were too weak to dodge.
"Hold it off!"
The Flower Demon Kings’ parasitic exotic plants and a large number of treants stretched out their already prepared branches, interweaving into a dense green net to shield the cultivators from the aftermath.
Bang!
The aftershock spread for thousands of miles, crashing into the net of killing light, causing the entire ghost realm to sink heavily, almost as if it were about to be pressed down a notch.
When the aftershock dissipated, countless branches spread open.
Lin Yi and Lin Wai both looked up at the sky.
The giant hand had disappeared!
Cheers from all the cultivators followed, with sighs of relief echoing everywhere.
"We succeeded!"
Wei Qing also breathed a huge sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Don’t be careless!" Lin Wai warned sternly.
But it was already too late.
Suddenly, the sky turned pitch black as if on cue.
Whoo~~~~~
The wind was whining as though it was crying.
Everything around them turned to gray and black, countless gray sandstorms swirling around the entire ghost realm.
A colossal and terrifying giant slowly erged from the sky.
It was a giant made entirely of gray sand; his head alone spanned several Spirit Miles and was larger than the entire ghost realm.
The giant slowly bent down; his face took up most of the ghost realm’s sky, his hands embracing the ghost realm within them.
"Everything on Green Lake Mountain must die..."
Thunder rumbled from his mouth as countless grains of gray sand swirled in his eyes.
He thrust out his palms, brutally clamping the ghost realm in the middle, squeezing with trendous force, intending to crush it to fragnts.
"We fight to the last!"
Lin Yi and Lin Wai, with bulging eyes, led the Taoist soldiers to frenetically run the Polar Region, trying to stop the imnse power.
Wei Qing and the others fell to the ground trying to activate their magic artifacts, only to find in horror that all magic artifacts had beco completely ineffective.
"It’s over!"
Wei Qing fell to the ground, unable to stand steady, his body severely depleted of True Force, fixing a desperate gaze upon the sky.
Lin Yi clutched his Purple Jade cane tightly, feeling an impulse to summon servants of the Evil God at all costs.
But even if the Evil God were summoned now, it would be too late.
Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire, and when faced with a formidable existence like a Heavenly Venerable, even if the Evil God itself descended, the outco would still be uncertain.
"Master... it’s over now..." All the contingencies that might have been useful against the Heavenly Venerable had been exhausted, and though they had many other items, none was of any use.
Everyone looked up at the sky, no longer bothering to resist, as two massive forces pressed against each other, causing the entire ghost realm to emit the sound of being overwheld to the breaking point.
Suddenly, the two giant hands viciously accelerated towards each other!
Boom!!!
The terrifying oscillation instantly spread throughout the entire dark realm. In that instant, all sound seed to have lost its aning, transforming into the purest of vibrations.
Just as everyone despairingly closed their eyes, awaiting death,
they did not feel the agony of their bodies being destroyed.
Wei Qing opened his eyes in shock, only to see amidst the grey sandstorm, a surge of red light, hazy and enveloping all around, resisting the imnse force pressing in from the outside.
"It’s the Honored Master!!!"
He cried out in joy without delay.
Lin Yi and other Array Disciples were also overjoyed and hurried to quickly reform the Formation, trying to stimulate their True Force.
But by this ti, their True Force was already exhausted, and they had no energy left.
The grey, endless sandstorm appeared to fill the entire world, leaving no crevices.
Lin Xin held the Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads in his hand, facing the giant in the sky, his expression solemn.
"Heavenly Venerable..."
He hadn’t imagined that he would encounter such a formidable enemy just as he returned.
Although, in theory, an Earth Immortal in their Land for God Worship should be at their strongest, capable of exerting many tis their power compared to outside,
strength also depends on who the opponent is.
If the opponent were rely at the Earth Immortal level, naturally there would be no issue.
But the current situation was that the opponent was none other than a Heavenly Venerable who had already ascended to the celestial ranks, in a completely different league from him!
Crack!
As the giant hands pressed together, they were suddenly unable to compress any further halfway, emitting a grating crackling sound.
From within the dark realm, looking up from below,
among countless grey sandstorms, Lin Xin hovered in midair, supporting a rapidly spinning Vermilion Treasure Bead in his hands.
None of the sandstorm could even get close to him.
The red light completely isolated a small area around him. The light spread out as if it were the only color in the entire world now.
He was now the only hope for everyone in the dark realm, whether they were practitioners, Disciples, or Array Soldiers.
If the barrier were to be breached, the Land for God Worship would surely be destroyed, leading to the end where everyone’s spirits and souls would be annihilated.
"Earth Immortal..."
The Heavenly Venerable giant slowly gazed down at Lin Xin, who seed as insignificant as an ant.
"To be able to block , you have the right to be proud. However, it’s a pity..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when he abruptly reached out, causing a sandstorm to ensue around him, turning into a torrent, and rushing wildly towards Lin Xin.
Countless grey sands frantically enveloped Lin Xin completely, then began to collapse inward, becoming smaller and smaller in volu, but increasingly thicker.
A giant sand sphere ford in midair.
Within the sphere,
Lin Xin seed to be plunged into complete darkness.
There was no ti, no space, no matter at all, and even the sandstorm from before was unusually calm, as if it had disappeared.
The only thing remaining around him was darkness.
This was his first ti confronting an enemy of the Heavenly Venerable level.
Although the opponent’s power was indeed unrivaled, sothing Earth Immortals couldn’t resist,
sohow, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of panic.
The Realm Artifact Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads in his hand seed to give him an endless source of strength, continuously releasing a gentle yet firm red light, keeping everything at bay.
He slowly closed his eyes.
Lin Xin carefully felt the rotational force of the Treasure Bead in his hands. The re red light was enough to keep all the oppressive forces around him at bay.
Over two hundred points of Immortal Light slowly appeared beneath his feet, forming a terrifyingly complex halo of karmic ties, reflecting around Lin Xin.
Streams of True Force far surpassing that of an ordinary sixth-rank Earth Immortal surged out from the ground of the dark realm, rushing into the air, and converging into Lin Xin’s body.
"Dark realm, resonate...!"
Lin Xin slowly opened his eyes.
Swish!
Twelve pairs of pristine white wings suddenly unfurled behind him.
The vast and slender white wings were like the only purity between heaven and earth, frozen high in the sky.
All of the Purifying Force, along with all the True Force and Earth Attribute Elental Force stored in the dark realm, relentlessly poured into the Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads.
The entire Treasure Bead spun rapidly, with attribute light frantically transferring from Lin Xin’s body, reinforcing and amplifying the massive attribute upon it.
The originally red bead began to rotate at a speed visible to the naked eye, emanating strands of dark golden color.
The burning flas inside gradually transford into a dark golden, lava-like substance.
Lin Xin lowered his head to look deep into the dark realm’s land.
There, a dark figure sat cross-legged, with two beads floating around him, each marked with the large characters of "Righteousness" and "Evil."
The dark figure slowly lifted its head, its eyes suddenly eting Lin Xin’s.
That was his own Sacred Body!
"I leave it to you!"
Lin Xin transmitted his thought from midair.
In the land of the dark realm below, the Qing Yuan Cauldron trembled fiercely, spewing out a stream of the purest Lifebound Elental Force, turning into a cyan Longsword. It shot up into the sky along with the dark figure and both beads, piercing straight into the sand sphere in the air, and vanishing into the Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads.
Crack!
The sand sphere suddenly split open, and a beam of red light pierced through.
Boom!!!
In an instant, the entire sand sphere exploded.
A massive amount of dark golden lava that seed to have been compressed for a long ti surged out, instantly turning the entire grey sky into a dark red color.
Under the abnormal activation of Lin Xin’s karmic halo, combined with the assimilation of the Corpse King’s qi of the world’s origin, the Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads finally underwent a tamorphosis.
And then, attribute enhancent was added.
At this mont, the Earthfire Nine Spirit Beads had completely changed.
It turned into a dark gold-colored bead about the size of a fist, almost identical to the several beads Lin Xin had collected before!
