Chapter 918 Sword Qi Soaring to the Heavens
Qi Huang heard this voice and breathed a sigh of relief, then retracted her Boundless Demonic Hair. “Pulling? Why didn’t you keep pulling?”
Yin Wan stood outside the Spiritual Sense Shield and teased, his voice amplified by True Qi, spreading throughout Xiannv Star.
“The Immortal Alliance Leader graces us with his presence. If I continue pulling, wouldn’t that be very impolite?”
Qi Huang replied without blushing or shortness of breath.
“What? He’s the Immortal Alliance Leader? We’re finished.”
“The National Preceptor is also to blame. We suggested hiding Xiannv Star long ago, but she didn’t believe us. Now look, all the evil spirits have been caught in one net by the Immortal Alliance.”
“What Immortal Alliance? If this demonic tree isn’t dealt with quickly, we’ll be annihilated without them needing to lift a finger.”
…
The evil spirits were already suffering immensely from the demonic tree. Upon hearing this, their mental defenses immediately collapsed, and cries of despair filled the air.
“Heh, if you can’t move it, you can’t move it. You sure know how to save face.”
Yin Wan taunted mercilessly.
“Indeed. This is a withered branch at the Heavenly Demon peak level. Do you think your meager strength can shake it?”
Yan Yi, standing beside him, added insult to injury.
“Oh? That strong?”
Qi Huang feigned surprise, then asked curiously, “Heavenly Demon? So, that’s a demon from the Celestial Realm, at the same level as a Celestial Being?”
“No, it’s at the same level as a Celestial Immortal and a Celestial Demon.”
Yin Wan shook his head.
“I’m very curious. If a celestial being ascends, they are called a Celestial Being. What are the Ghost Tribe and the Demon Tribe called after they ascend? If they are called Celestial Demons and Celestial Devils, wouldn’t that be completely confused with the Celestial Demon realm and Celestial Devil realm?”
Qi Huang asked with great curiosity.
“Any race that ascends to the Celestial Realm is called a ‘Celestial Being’ because they have all received the approval of the Heavenly Dao and shed their physical bodies. There is no distinction between humans, demons, ghosts, or monsters.”
Yin Wan explained enthusiastically.
“Is that so? According to you, if one doesn’t get the approval of the Heavenly Dao, they cannot ascend to the Celestial Realm.”
Qi Huang said after careful consideration.
“Of course. These myriad worlds were created by the Five Elements Heavenly Dao. How could it possibly allow the existence of異类 (al·lé·i)? Therefore, I still advise you to surrender honestly. Perhaps there’s still a sliver of hope.”
Yin Wan’s face showed reverence.
“Surrender? And hand over our fate to the Heavenly Dao? Do you remember the original intention of cultivators cultivating?”
Qi Huang retorted.
“Of course, it is to eliminate all evil spirits for the Heavenly Dao.”
Yin Wan lied with his eyes open.
“Is that so? I finally understand why someone of your strength is called a Celestial Immortal. They should actually be called Celestial Slaves!”
Qi Huang mocked, then quickly corrected herself: “Oh, no, “Celestial Slaves” and “Celestial Servants” are already taken. Your strength isn’t even as good as theirs, you’re at best a Celestial Dog!”
“Heh heh, if I were you, I’d seize the opportunity to beg for mercy, rather than provoke the Alliance Leader like this. It won’t do you any good.”
Yan Yi shook his head sadly.
“There’s no chance!”
Yin Wan looked at Qi Huang with pity, then said, “Before we make a move, I, as Alliance Leader, must thank you. If you hadn’t held this family reunion and attracted so many evil spirits, it wouldn’t have been so easy for us to find them.”
“Alas! I wish I hadn’t come.”
Upon hearing this, an evil spirit lamentingly said.
“Then have you ever considered why I dared to openly hold this family reunion?”
Qi Huang calmly countered.
“Why? Because of that poisonous zombie? I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. With the Alliance Leader here today, even if she comes, she won’t be able to change anything.”
Yin Wan said confidently.
“Heh heh…”
Qi Huang smiled, then deliberately shouted loudly, “Did you hear that?”
Someone is looking down on you!
You’re too young to learn bad habits, actually playing the trick of inciting anger.
An Xuan on that desolate planet shook her head helplessly, then took out her trigger crossbow, opened a teleportation gate, and headed towards Xiannv Star. Because the teleportation gate was sprayed with Heaven-Concealing Water, she wasn’t afraid of being discovered in advance.
The members of the Immortal Alliance looked around, trying to find An Xuan’s shadow, but still found nothing.
“Heh heh, I’m really starting to suspect if she’s in league with you.”
The mocking expression on Yin Wan’s face became more obvious.
“You’ll know soon enough.”
Qi Huang retorted fiercely, though she wasn’t very confident in her heart. An Xuan had indeed come, but who knew what her purpose was.
“Alliance Leader Yin, stop talking nonsense with her and make your move quickly.”
An old acquaintance on the side urged her on. This was the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor, who wanted to regain his honor.
“Isn’t this the Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor? In Extreme Violet City, you had your Imperial Weapon to rely on, and I couldn’t do anything to you. But now, on Xiannv Star, how much power does your Imperial Weapon still have?”
Qi Huang provocatively stated calmly.
“You’ll know soon enough. I, this Immortal Emperor, vow to reclaim those spoils of war today.”
The Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor’s face turned somewhat ferocious. Ever since he was robbed by the woman in front of him, his life had been difficult. Ten people could mock him with just a few words.
“Alright, the idle chat is over. Prepare to become the eternal sinner of the Ghost Tribe.”
Yin Wan’s gaze sharpened. His Spiritual Sense transformed into a giant sword ten thousand zhang long, carrying monstrous spatial fluctuations, and cleaved towards the Spiritual Sense Shield.
Hmph, if we’re just comparing Spiritual Sense, do you think this National Preceptor fears you?
Qi Huang snorted confidently, and her equally powerful Spiritual Sense soared into the sky, rapidly reinforcing the Spiritual Sense Shield around Xiannv Star.
“Boom!”
The two terrifying Spiritual Senses collided, immediately creating a monstrous spiritual sense wave that spread in all directions.
The Immortal Alliance’s army quickly opened their shields to desperately resist the shockwave. The surrounding stars were not so lucky; they turned into dust one by one.
“Spiritual Sense strength of Celestial Immortal fifth layer?”
Yin Wan’s breathing hitched.
“Alliance Leader Yin, I didn’t lie to you, did I?”
The Extreme Violet Immortal Emperor said with lingering fear.
“I now finally understand why you were so confident. I’m very curious where you’ve been hiding all these years to grow to such a level in secret.”
Yin Wan’s expression became serious.
“Hiding? This National Preceptor never hid. You are simply incompetent.”
Qi Huang did not miss any opportunity to mock the lackeys of the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps because of Lu Yao, she intensely disliked this type of person.
“I admit I underestimated you, but what’s the use of that? As long as the Sun Tree exists, you ghosts are doomed to die today.”
Yin Wan calmly folded his arms. With the Sun Tree exerting its power, he had no need to fight desperately.
“National Preceptor! Save us!”
Just then, countless evil spirits cried out to Qi Huang for help. Under the weakening effect of the Sun Tree’s pollen, their strength had plummeted. Now, not a single Demon Lord or even a close Demon-level evil spirit could be seen. The strongest were only Master Demon-level.
“Do you really think I have no way to deal with the demonic tree?”
Qi Huang slightly raised the corner of her mouth. The Assimilation Power within her surged out, transforming into a pink domain that spread in all directions. Wherever it went, all Five Elements Spiritual Qi was assimilated into Assimilation Power.
“This is… Not good… This is Assimilation Power!”
Yin Wan’s expression finally changed. He drew his treasure sword and charged towards the shield.
But at that moment, a black lightning bolt flashed. Wherever it passed, corpse poison leaked out, corroding the spatial barrier and leaving large and small patches.
Yin Wan was caught off guard. He hurriedly retracted his sword to defend.
“Clang!”
A metallic tremor sounded. Yin Wan’s body was sent flying hundreds of zhang away by a punch from the black figure.
The slender black figure retracted her delicate fist, then symbolically blew on it. The sharp zombie fingernails shone with a greenish sheen, and the corpse poison continuously corroded the surrounding space, looking extremely terrifying.
Yin Wan finally stabilized himself. He raised his hand and looked at his trembling treasure sword. Only to see a small fist-sized imprint on the sword blade, with corpse poison rapidly spreading outwards.
“Crack!”
After two breaths, the treasure sword finally shattered under the immense pressure.
Yin Wan casually threw away the broken sword. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the black figure: “You’ve finally appeared. You must be that poisonous zombie who attacked Extreme Violet City!”
“Poisonous zombie? What a rude appellation. Is this the cultivation of the Immortal Alliance Leader?”
The black figure teased.
“Haha, Alliance Leader Yin, do you know that now? Is she my friend?”
Qi Huang looked up and mocked, as the person who arrived was indeed An Xuan.
Yin Wan did not retort. He commanded the Immortal Alliance army: “Attack Xiannv Star with full force. I will deal with this poisonous zombie.”
“Yes!”
The million-strong army of the Immortal Alliance received the order and swarmed towards Xiannv Star.
Yin Wan also summoned another treasure sword and charged towards An Xuan.
“Wife, did you hear that? You can make your move now!”
Qi Huang quickly used Mind Transmission to contact Cheng Hong Ling on the other side of the spatial barrier.
Cheng Hong Ling, located in the Cultivation World, did not waste any words. The Profound Ice True Qi within her body poured wildly into the Blue Scale Sword. She then reversed her grip and inserted it into the spatial scratch in front of her.
“Clang!”
With a crisp sound, Cheng Hong Ling’s treasure sword pierced the spatial barrier of the Cultivation World effortlessly. Half of the sword body extended into the Immortal Realm, and the azure sword qi emanating from it soared into the heavens, appearing exceptionally conspicuous in the darkness.
