Chapter 919 Successful Escape
The sudden appearance of sword energy immediately drew the attention of many evil spirits and immortals. They stopped to observe and found that the sword energy had penetrated the spatial barrier within the spiritual sense shield, then, like scissors slicing through fabric, effortlessly tore open a massive rift. “How is this possible?”
At this moment, everyone’s eyes widened in shock because everyone understood how strong the spatial barrier of the Immortal Realm was. It was likely that even an existence at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm could not easily tear it apart.
“Could it be the arrival of a Celestial Being?”
Some immortals speculated.
“If it’s the arrival of a Celestial Being, then aren’t we all doomed?”
The evil spirits, who had just managed to catch their breath, felt their hearts sink again.
“That’s impossible for a Celestial Being to descend. First, Celestial Beings, like us Immortals, cannot easily descend to the lower realms; second, although that sword energy looks intimidating, it hasn’t reached the level of an Earth Immortal. How could such power shatter the spatial barrier of the Immortal Realm?”
Yan Yi, as the Grand Elder of the Immortal Alliance and a powerful and experienced individual, immediately noticed something was wrong.
“No, what’s breaking there is the spatial barrier of the Cultivation World, not the Immortal Realm.”
Yan Yi immediately reacted, and combined with the assimilation power on Qi Huang, his expression changed drastically: “This is bad. She arranged for people in the Cultivation World to shatter space, intending to escape to the lower realm. Everyone, quickly break through this spiritual sense shield with me.”
After saying this, Yan Yi charged towards Xiannv Star. The treasure sword in his hand emanated ten thousand feet of sword energy, carrying a terrifying aura as it slashed towards the spiritual sense shield.
Qi Huang was multitasking, constantly releasing her assimilation domain to envelop the entire Xiannv Star, and simultaneously releasing her spiritual sense to reinforce the spiritual sense shield outside.
“Boom!”
The sword energy and the spiritual sense shield collided, emitting a soul-shattering roar. The terrifying spatial vibrations instantly tore apart many nearby Immortal Alliance disciples.
Qi Huang’s head throbbed slightly.
She quickly focused her mind, and felt fortunate that the Grand Elder of the Immortal Alliance only had the cultivation of the fourth level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. If his realm were the same as her spiritual sense, that blow would have shattered her spiritual sense shield.
The Immortal Alliance disciples behind them charged forward fearlessly, attacking the spiritual sense shield fiercely. Although their strength was not strong, their sheer numbers made them a force that could not be ignored.
Qi Huang’s pressure increased, and her willow brows furrowed slightly due to the pain. However, her persistence paid off. The assimilation domain had already enveloped the entire Xiannv Star and the surrounding space. All the Five Elements Spiritual Qi was assimilated. The demon tree, unable to absorb the fire spiritual qi, naturally stopped growing, and the pollen also became powerless.
The evil spirits’ hearts finally settled, but due to the immense mass of Xiannv Star, they still found it difficult to move freely.
At this moment, Cheng Hong Ling had already carved a large curved rift in the spatial barrier, gradually encircling the entire Xiannv Star.
An Xuan, seeing that Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling still needed time, turned and charged towards Xiannv Star.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Yin Wan roared and chased after her.
An Xuan did not engage in a prolonged struggle. She circled Xiannv Star at high speed, simultaneously releasing terrifying corpse poison, which soon enveloped the entire planet.
Yin Wan dared not be careless and quickly covered himself with True Qi, but those Immortal Alliance disciples with low cultivation were miserable.
“Ah!”
Millions of Immortal Alliance disciples screamed and struggled in the corpse poison. Those with weaker strength were quickly corrupted. Soon, they transformed from high and mighty Immortals into zombies, and were then mercilessly slain by their companions.
Qi Huang’s pressure was significantly reduced. She took the opportunity to say to the evil spirits below, “You all have seen it. We are now surrounded by people from the Immortal Alliance. If you want to live, there is only one path for you, and that is to follow me to the lower realm.”
After saying this, Qi Huang added, “Of course, as your National Preceptor, I do not wish to argue with anyone. If anyone wishes to…”
…to show their resolve by dying, I can let them go out and fight to their heart’s content.
“National Preceptor, save us! We are willing to follow you to the lower realm!”
“We were suppressed by that demon tree, and our strength is almost depleted. If we go out to fight now, we will only be doing it for others’ pleasure!”
“National Preceptor, take me to the lower realm! I am willing to… no… willing to plant flowers and plants for the entire Ghost Tribe for a lifetime.”
The evil spirits pleaded one after another. Due to the influence of the Sun Tree, most of them had fallen below the Human-Demon Level, and naturally had no courage to go out and fight.
Qi Huang smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this. As long as Cheng Hong Ling opened a large enough passage, she would be able to escape with these “laborers.”
“Damn it!”
Seeing that they were about to fail, Yan Yi cursed vulgarly. With a flick of his right hand, his sword body immediately split into four sword blades that flew towards the southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest of Xiannv Star. They rapidly expanded, becoming as large as mountains, their surfaces smooth as mirrors. The mysterious patterns on them, illuminated by the starlight, erupted with divine radiance and shot towards Xiannv Star.
“Pffft…”
Under the illumination of these four powerful beams, An Xuan’s corpse poison melted rapidly like ice.
The four beams pierced through the corpse poison and then shone fiercely upon the spiritual sense shield.
Qi Huang’s pressure increased again, so she quickly condensed her spiritual sense to resist.
“If you want to live, hurry up.”
An Xuan urged, pausing her actions. Although her strength was only comparable to Yin Fang’s, Yin Fang, as the Alliance Leader of the Immortal Alliance, was favored by the Heavenly Dao and possessed many heaven-defying techniques and magic treasures, so she absolutely could not afford a protracted battle.
Qi Huang was also anxious, but she couldn’t spare her hands to help.
Fortunately, Cheng Hong Ling did not disappoint her. She soon carved out a colossal ring-shaped spatial rift.
…rift, enclosing the entire Xiannv Star within it.
Qi Huang knew that the time had come. She gritted her teeth slightly, and the Boundless Demonic Hair behind her head surged and swept towards Yan Yi.
Yan Yi was greatly alarmed and could only withdraw his sword formation to defend.
Qi Huang seized the opportunity to envelop the entire planet and its surrounding space with her spiritual sense, then forcefully pressed downwards.
“Boom!”
Next, all the space within the ring-shaped rift, along with Xiannv Star, began to sink towards the Cultivation World under the immense push of spiritual sense.
“We’re going!”
Qi Huang shouted to An Xuan, taking a moment.
An Xuan abandoned her pursuit and withdrew, entering the massive circular spatial rift and chasing after Xiannv Star. Since she also possessed an assimilation domain, she could naturally come and go freely.
The people of the Immortal Alliance surrounded them, but could only watch Xiannv Star’s retreating figure in exasperation. They did not possess assimilation power.
“Damn it, and they still managed to escape.”
Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor cursed fiercely.
“It’s all because you’re useless. So many people couldn’t even break through that spiritual sense shield. It’s utterly embarrassing.”
Yin Wan mocked without holding back. He had expected to capture all those evil spirits this time, but not only did he lose tens of thousands of Immortal Alliance disciples, but he also lost the Sun Tree to the other party. It was truly a case of “losing the wife and soldiers.”
“You…”
Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor wanted to retort, but ultimately chose to swallow his anger. After all, this was not Extreme Violet City, and his Imperial Weapon could not be used.
“Please calm down, both of you. This is not entirely a bad thing for us. She took away so many evil spirits, which means that the evil spirits in our Immortal Realm are few and far between.”
Yan Yi appeased them.
“Elder Yan, you let the tiger return to the mountains today. How do you know they won’t come back? It’s as difficult as ascending to heaven to go from the Immortal Realm to the Cultivation World, but it’s not as simple as lifting a finger to go from the Cultivation World to the Immortal Realm?”
Yin Wan retorted.
“Uh…”
Yan Yi was immediately speechless.
“Damn it, if the Celestial Beings allowed us to use assimilation power, I would chase them to the ends of the earth.”
Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor’s facial features were contorted.
“A fool’s dream. That is the power of an external Heavenly Dao. How could Celestial Beings possibly allow you to use it?”
Yin Wan glared at Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor, then commanded, “All of you, guard this place well. I, your Alliance Leader, need some quiet time to consider how to handle this mess.”
Qi Huang dared not be careless. She continuously used her spiritual sense and the teleportation gate to lead Xiannv Star in a mad dash across the Cultivation World until she was far from the spatial rift.
“Haha, is this the Cultivation World? We are saved! We are saved!”
“Thank you, National Preceptor! Thank you, National Preceptor!”
“But how do we get back?”
“Go back? With your current strength, going back would be pure suicide. It’s better to stay in the Cultivation World for a lifetime, as there are no Immortals threatening us here anyway.”
The evil spirits erupted in cheers.
“Are you alright?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked with concern.
“I’m fine!”
Qi Huang forced a smile, unable to hide the fatigue on her face.
Cheng Hong Ling shook her head helplessly, then took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her lover’s forehead.
Qi Huang’s body gradually relaxed. It was at this moment that An Xuan spoke.
“Are you two the main body and a clone? Why do you look like lovers?”
An Xuan’s tone was tinged with teasing, and her beautiful eyes appraised herself and Cheng Hong Ling with great interest.
Qi Huang awkwardly asked her lover to put away the handkerchief, then said to An Xuan, “Can we have a good talk?”
