Chapter 976: Irresistible Force
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
While Qin Wentian and Qing`er were fighting, the battlefield had already erupted into chaos. Everyone was in a state of frenzy as they fought madly against their opponents.
Nanfeng Yunxi and Little Rascal joined forces, and their strength was also extremely powerful. Nanfeng Yunxi was cloaked in phoenix flames, and she stabbed out with her finger as the ancient phoenix phantom cried out. Her flames intensified, devastating everything. Little Rascal's body seemed to have been cast from pure gold. Its gigantic body was incomparably fierce and unrivaled. Every attack it made had the power to break the heavens. Both of them effortlessly shattered the descending ancient cauldron manifested by the battle formation, and the other experts added to the chaos by joining in the fight.
As for the other battles, Jun Mengchen, Hua Taixu, and Zi Qingxuan each led a group of experts, tearing apart their enemy's smaller teams of nine.
The strength of a battle formation with nine people was far inferior to the grand battle formation formed by eighty-one people. The Clear Sky Worldly Diagram appeared behind Jun Mengchen. Every one of his punches contained a startling might. He was enveloped with layers of emperor-king armor, and could borrow power from the Clear Sky Worldly Diagram for all his attacks. Small teams simply couldn't withstand his savage power. In addition, with a group of experts from the Qin Sect acting as his support, it almost required no effort for him to crush these small teams of nine.
"DIE!" Jun Mengchen punched out. His emperor-king fist transformed into a golden current that tore apart everything. In just an instant, several teams of nine were crushed under a single punch. In fact, they didn't even have time to use their trump cards.
Hua Taixu was similarly just as terrifying. After the baptism of the Sacred Luminance, his samsara eyes had evolved. When he opened his eyes, the light of the samsara world could be seen flashing in their depths, and the heavens and earth lost their color. The experts subjected to this only felt themselves sinking into Hua Taixu's world, and the only image on their minds was the spiraling samsara—their teamwork was instantly disintegrated.
The experts from the Qin Sect followed closely behind, using absolute strength to dominate and crush the teams of nine. Their hearts were all shaking when they saw how powerful their leaders were. Jun Mengchen, Hua Taixu, and the others must have truly discovered a miraculous encounter. All their strength seemed to have evolved to the next level, somehow becoming even more terrifying. In addition, they had all broken through to the ninth-level of Celestial Phenomenon.
Zi Qingxuan and Purgatory were also slaughtering their enemies with incomparably ferocious attacks.
The strength and talent of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect's members basically couldn't compare to Jun Mengchen, Zi Qingxuan, and the rest. These people had also undergone the recruitment test of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, and had even come out in the top ten. Not only that, they had already experienced the baptism of the Sacred Luminance. How could these 'peak' geniuses from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect stand up to them? The battle was completely one-sided.
"What overwhelming combat prowess. It's simply too terrifying. This small group of people have enough strength to be ranked within the Immortal Ascension Rankings' top ten." The spectating geniuses felt their hearts tremble. At present, it was no longer Qin Wentian, Qing`er, and Nanfeng Yunxi that made up the strong pillars of the Qin Sect. Jun Mengchen, Hua Taixu, and Zi Qingxuan were all overwhelmingly powerful as well, able to effortlessly sweep through everything. They were like deities who had descended, unexcelled in this world.
"The Eastern Sage Immortal Sect is doomed." A thought flashed through the minds of the spectators. This battle was doomed to end with the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect's defeat. It was hopeless for them to try, even if they depended on their battle formations.
"Daoyang gege, their strength…" Xiao Lengyue's countenance was extremely cold. She was once ranked sixth in the Immortal Ascension Rankings. Although her ranking had dropped, she was still within the top ten. But when she saw the strength Jun Mengchen and the others, she suddenly realized that they could all fight equally against her. Of course, this was based on what she saw of their strength on the surface. But as to their exact level of power, she would only know if she fought with them personally.
Qin Wentian, Jun Mengchen, and Zi Qingxuan had joined her Xiao Sect soon after they entered the city. At that time, they were insignificant beings, only at the seventh-level of Celestial Phenomenon. They had all undergone a transformation in the City of Ancient Emperors, and had suddenly rose up with such explosive strength. Currently, Xiao Lengyue felt extremely strange to witness their rise in strength. Her entire self just felt extremely uncomfortable.
Zi Daoyang's eyes gleamed with sharpness as he stared at Qin Wentian and his companions, silently observing their individual levels of strength. Indeed, they had all grown stronger. It must be because they had stepped into the Antiquity City!
"Antiquity City…" Zi Daoyang clenched his fist. Why didn't he try to go there earlier? What miraculous encounters had Qin Wentian and his companions come across?
Mo Xie had also entered there, so he must have experienced the same miraculous encounter as them. If Mo Xie's strength had risen again, how strong would he be? Would Mo Xie be strong enough to threaten his position as number one?
"I will first complete the inheritance of the Brahma Heavenly Emperor. And when I do, I'll be able to use the energy of all attributes after I devour these people," Zi Daoyang mused, filled with an intense hope. Right now, his goal was to complete all nine portions of the inheritance first.
—BOOM!— At this moment, a wave of devastating might descended from the sky, shocking the battling experts. This was caused by the activation of a strand of immortal sense on one of the geniuses from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect. However, even before the immortal sense of an immortal king could fully manifest, a wave of law energy instantly destroyed it.
"The law energy of the City of Ancient Emperors…it's personally witnessing this battle." The hearts of the geniuses trembled. This battle had actually aroused the interest of the city's protector—that black dragon wasn't going to allow the immortal sense of immortal kings or emperors to disrupt the battle. Apparently, that was the reason for its presence.
"This…" Everyone inclined their heads and stared up at the sky. For the first time, the law energy of the City of Ancient Emperors had interfered in a battle. It was acting like a protector.
And with that, time continued to pass by. Although not a lot of time had passed, the battle was incomparably intense. All the attacks were filled with intent and enough power to kill. Experts were slaughtered, causing immortal senses to activate, only for the tribulation law energy to disperse them. All of this happened in rapid succession, causing the hearts of the spectators to pound violently. They could only sigh as they continued to spectate.
At this moment, the group of people led by Qin Wentian and Qing`er had already arrived right above the devil ape battle formation. They were all enveloped by the demonic light of the devil ape, who had chosen not to defend against Qin Wentian's and his companion's attacks separately. The demonic light formed a screen, as runes sparkled on its surface.
"SCRAM!" A heaven-shaking roar thundered out, and all the experts within the battle formation simultaneously threw out punches, manifesting streams of fist light as they channeled all their strength into the devil ape. The devil ape mirrored their movements, tyrannically throwing out a punch that erupted with streams of light, all packed with enough dominating force that it could shatter everything. Qin Wentian's expression turned ugly. His gigantic body stabbed his spear out with lightning speed, aiming at countless locations as a deafeningly explosive sound rang out without end. White rune light flashed as the streams of fist light were all obliterated.
But even so, the experts from the Qin Sect were still being struck. They coughed out blood as they were flung through the air.
"The defense of the devil ape is constantly being diminished. Brothers of the Qin Sect, do your best, we must shatter the formation! I will act as protector for all of you!" Qin Wentian roared. A terrifying ancient demon constellation appeared in the air as numerous greater demons were actually summoned from the void, descending from the sky. All the summoned demons exuded an incomparably violent demonic might.
At the same time, the Sword Slaughter and Suppressive Annihilation constellations both appeared. Boundless astral light cascaded down as sword might filled the sky. Golden figures of suppression shot out, capable of suppressing even time, and all aiming for the devil ape. Qin Wentian was doing his best to protect the people from his sect.
"He's managed to cultivate his constellations to such an extent, he's simply unrivaled!"
Qin Wentian alone could defend against the strength of a battle formation. If the experts from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect hadn't banded together in a battle formation, who could stand against a single one of his attacks? They would all be destroyed with just one hit.
"KILL!"
The morale of the Qin Sect's members rose explosively. With Qin Wentian, such a powerful sect leader acting as a protector for them, how could they still fail to break apart the battle formation?
Qing`er's countenance was like ice, and she radiated boundless spatial light. She stood at the front of the battlefield, directly facing against the battle formation. With a blast, she slammed a palm strike onto a screen of light and instantly, flowers of spatial destruction bloomed endlessly. The power contained within the spatial law energy could penetrate everything.
Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and it seemed like she had just activated the Green-Lotus Sacred Compendium. A seat of lotuses bloomed underneath her feet, and the lotuses on the battlefield radiated beams of deadly light. The light shot outwards, terrorizing the experts within the battle formation. All their strength was to control the formation; the moment they were distracted, the battle formation would fall apart. This battle formation was so powerful because everyone was united. They moved not as individuals, but as a single entity. Hence, if their minds were seized by panic, everything would be over.
In that instant, Qing`er's attack seeped into the heart of the battle formation, aiming for the lives of the geniuses within.
Puchi… Several beams of light shone brilliantly, and the deadly lotuses bloomed resplendently as it bypassed the screen of light. The expressions of the experts inside all changed to panic, and they frantically recalled their energy to defend against Qing`er's attack. At this instant, the devil ape grew intensely weak, and was now on the verge of fully disintegrating.
"BREAK!" The experts of the Qin Sect launched even more savage attacks when they saw this happen. Their strength was originally overwhelming. But this time around, their attacks shook the heavens, causing the sounds of rumbling to echo relentlessly. Qin Wentian stabbed out with another domineering spear strike, and with an explosive boom, the spear penetrated the screen of light and shattered it, instantly taking the lives of quite a few experts.
In that instant, one of the battle formations had completely disintegrated.
"The people from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect are in for it now," the spectators mused. Many of them were standing in midair at a distance, watching the battle as they felt waves rising in their hearts.
As the spear pierced forth, all the spectators already knew there would be no feelings of suspense in this battle. The Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was destined to be punished by Qin Wentian.
"KILL!" Upon seeing the battle formation disintegrating, the experts of the Qin Sect all frenziedly rushed in. Numerous golden figures of suppression fell down from the air above those from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, forcibly suppressing them as Qin Wentian's death-dealing spear shot out once again. Many of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect's experts didn't even have time to defend, and accepted their fates of death. Just like the spectators had anticipated, without a battle formation, no one among the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect could withstand even one of Qin Wentian's strikes.
At this instant, the faces of all the experts from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect were filled with terror and despair. They had come here in style, and by right, it should have ended with the destruction of the Qin Sect. Why was it like this instead?
Qin Wentian's countenance was completely different from those experts of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect. His eyes were filled with cold disdain. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had actually sent an army of over three hundred troops to the City of Ancient Emperors to kill him? In this battle, he'd make sure the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor would regret his actions—he would further tarnish his reputation and throw out his face by killing his people.
