Chapter 1010: End Realm Attacks

The many Celestial Cultivators in the outer region and the Ten Thousand Celestial Formation pretty much entered a battle of attrition.

The surrounding restrictions continued to collapse and they were all healed up right away.

This lasted for two hours before one could see the Celestial Cultivators starting to use the power of Mind Stones.

Within the Vast Habitat, there was no need to do so. Numerous spells struck from the outer region, causing chaotic Spiritual Energy flows which raged all about.

The Common People’s Path Cultivators in the formation just needed to straighten out and calm down the formations and they were able to absorb the thick and violent Spiritual Energies into their bodies to be used as their own.

Zong Shou shook his head. He knew that be it those three faction Celestial cultivators or Dao Soldiers, they were trying to use the aggressive wave-like attacks to test out the weaknesses of the formation to try to find a weak point which they could exploit.

As long as they maintained some pressure, the weaknesses of the formations and restrictions around would appear, one by one.

However, when he was patrolling and checking the formation, he had thought about such a possibility.

He focused on structural integrity, even if they sacrificed some defensive ability, it was still okay.

He didn’t require it to be perfect, but just to ensure that the structure of the restriction was indestructible.

There was really no need to worry about their random attacks. They might be able to forcefully blow open the outer formation, but then the many Celestial Realm Dao Soldiers would be exhausted and would have no energy to fight anymore.

He looked back toward the Cloud World.

Common People’s Path was half independent outside of the Cloud World, but after all, it still depended on it, so it was unable to break away.

This place was the weakest point of the Vast Habitat and also where the defensive formation was the strongest at.

Within the mirror he could see hundreds of thousands of troops, like mountains and oceans as they pressed over.

Their formations were compact and stable, they weren’t anxious or in a rush. Under the protection of numerous Spirit Realm Cultivators, they weren’t afraid of the Ten Thousand Celestial Formation attacking them either.

They got closer and closer bit by bit, much faster than turtles. They were majestic like mountains and weren’t to be shaken.

Zong Shou’s brow rose up. Just one look and he knew that the one leading the troops was a master at the art of war.

Even after this Cloud World space was sliced up into pieces by the formation, he was still able to keep the formation intact, there was pretty much no weaknesses to it.

He looked at the 70,000 Common People’s Xuan Dragon Warriors who had started to contact with the Dao Soldiers of the three factions.

They directly struck into the large cavalry formation starting from the strongest 50,000 Yuanchen Blood Cavalry which belonged to Great Shang.

With the help of the formation splitting them up, they charged right in!

Among the rumbling noises, blades clashed with one another. Armor and helmets clashed, blood and meat rained down.

Numerous miles of land was covered in killing sounds, the scenes were extremely intense and brutal.

In the cavalry formations of both sides, the ones at the front were pretty much drowned out in the charge. Under the horse hooves, they were smashed into meat paste.

70,000 Common People’s Xuan Dragon Warriors were all fighting to the death. However, the fighting intent of their opponents was also really strong.

At the start, they were on the same level, but after losing 4,000 Common People’s Xuan Dragon Warriors, they were able to crush the 50,000 Yuanchen Blood Cavalry formation.

The 60,000 Xuan Grade Cavalry were like a vast iron current charging in.

They continued to rush forward swiftly and clash! 280,000 horse hooves destroyed everything in front of them. The sword was waved and all lives around were claimed.

Just as they pierced through this cavalry formation, all the Silver Scale Wind Stepping Beasts all turned around by 70 degrees, and like a giant arrowhead, they charged toward the seven Extreme Arrow God Archer formations at the back of the enemy formation.

Zong Shou’s eyes lit up and he praised the beautiful move.

This Commander from Common People’s Path might not be as skilled as Zong Yuan or him in charging formations.

However, he was really familiar with the Ten Thousand Celestial Formation and he worked around it almost flawlessly.

It was tough to totally wipe out the enemy but it was enough to delay some time for the defenses.

He felt slightly shocked. The battle had just begun and they had already lost 4,000 of the 70,000 Common People’s Xuan Dragon Cavalry. 4,000 fellow sect disciples died just like that.

Shui Lingbo clenched her fist and slammed it onto the stone platform.

It was obvious that she was furious and filled with hatred about their deaths.

At this moment, this Source Ocean Bottomless Nine Palace Sword Formation was already completed and all members were already present.

All their faces were filled with sadness.

“This Yinyu deserves to die!”

Shui Lingbo took in a deep breath and barely controlled her emotions. The runes on her brow became even brighter and more apparent.

“Does he really think he can get anything good from helping the Confucians and the Taoist Faction?”

Zong Shou didn’t give his opinion, however, he knew that the Great Shang Emperor had no choice.

The Spiritual Wave was already here and Great Shang could only rely on the two End Realms from the Confucian Faction.

His eyes turned cold as he focused on an area in the mirror.

The mirror was huge and it was 1,000 feet large. It could accommodate hundreds of miles of land and millions of people in it.

Out of the tens of millions of people in the mirror, only this one person attracted his eye.

He wore a black robe, his long hair scattered behind as he stepped on flames as he walked. He traveled among the 10,000 strong army looking really calm and merciful.

Step by step, he walked toward the Vast Habitat. He was really casual, totally unaffected by the space splitting effect of the formation.

“Who is this person?”

Shui Lingbo also noticed it and looked over in shock.

Zong Shou shook his head, this person looked foreign. He didn’t know his background but he was most probably an End Realm Saint Venerable.

Chuxue exclaimed, “It is him? Xue’er saw him before. Xuanshuang Senior Master had clashed with his incarnation. He is called Primordial...”

Zong Shou and Shui Lingbo instantly exchanged glances with one another!

It was Wushang Yuan Demon Li Biexue, Yuanshi Demon Sect’s Ancestor!

That black shirt fire foot cultivator walked to the center of the battlefield, onto a hill before he stopped.

He was alone and looked expressionlessly into the sky.

In the next instant, Common People’s Vast Habitat shook once more!

This time it was 10 times more intense than before when those 47 formations and thousands of Celestial cultivators joined hands.

Within the mirror, one could see many waves of visible energy patterns spreading out.

Tens of thousands of restrictions were crushed and wiped out. In the air, there were dozens of black cracks. The marks of the outer pillar of the Vast Habitat were forcefully torn open.

There were also numerous black colored mists that spread out, causing all life for hundreds of miles beneath his feet to die, turning into a death land. It was also spreading.

“So strong, is this the power of an End Realm?” action

Shui Lingbo muttered, her face filled with disbelief. Zong Shou’s eyes were also filled with shock.

This wasn’t the first time he had seen an End Realm Saint Venerable attack. Those few times that he saw battles among End Realms, he was filled with huge shock and saw many profound secrets.

The scenes in front of him made him think back to when Dragon Shadow and Qingxuan’s incarnations clashed. They caused dozens of worlds to be covered in space storms.

This Wushang Yuan Demon’s attacks were above that.

The vast power had spread to the Ten Thousand Celestial Formation. If not for Xiuguan suppressing it, just the shaking alone would cause many Celestial cultivators to die.

After the first strike, a second one followed.

This time it came from the World River.

The mirror couldn’t turn in time, so Zong Shou used his World Burning Blood Eyes to look out.

He saw 620,000-foot tall bodies appearing in the void, each taking an area.

Zong Shou took a hurried look. It was the Taoist Faction Yuqing God Venerable and Shangqing God Venerable. Opposite it was Saint Zhi, Saint Meng, and Saint Shun, these three Saint Incarnations of the Confucian Faction.

Apart from these five God Venerables, there was a giant who was covered in black energy and around the same height.

They each held artifacts and grabbed out toward Common People’s Vast Habitat.

Under the explosion of God Power, the outer restrictions finally couldn’t take it anymore.

Piece by piece, they fell and numerous black cracks flashed.

Although the main pillar of the restriction was strong and wasn’t destroyed, it was unable to stop people from attacking the Vast Habitat.

Zong Shou’s brow rose up, his eyes filled with seriousness.

The true battle had just begun!

He spread out his Spiritual Sense, the World Burning Blood Eyes shone before Zong Shou laughed coldly.

“They want to attack this place right away? Unfortunately, I ain’t weak...”

He used a spell with his left hand and pointed onto the sword platform, activating the entire Sword Formation.

Streaks of Sword Energy gathered through the Energy Meridians and instantly nine Sword Energies congealed.

Zong Shou slashed into the void, guiding the Sword Energy to pierce through the air.

His first opponent was a Saint Realm Cultivator who headed in secretly using the broken restrictions.

“Slaying!”

Using the sword trajectory of the Common People Killing Sword, he silently pierced into the void.

That person only noticed that fierce killing sword when it was a few feet away.

He hurried threw out a shield to try to block.

Following which, there was a loud “Keng”, the Celestial Shield was okay but the Saint Realm Venerable himself had an entire arm that withered.

Massacring Slaying, this sword had wiped out all life from his arm!

Just at that moment, the nine Source Ocean Nine Palace Sword Energy also surged over.

The first three were reflected by the shield. The fourth one pierced through and crushed this Top Grade Celestial Shield!

The remaining five followed suit and smashed into the body of this Saint Realm like a storm.

It then exploded and brought numerous pieces of flesh and blood, turning into millions of Sword Energies that blocked off other cultivators from the three factions.

Zong Shou had always believed that cutting off one finger was better than injuring 10!

He should just try to block off the rest, to focus 90% of the power on one spot to kill one person!

He could hear furious shouts, but he felt slightly regretful. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the Imperial Demon Slaying Formation or he would have been much better at it.

3,300 people, even Peak Saint Realm, half a step to End Realm could be killed in one sword.

Apart from End Realm, unless one had some physical changes like the Common People’s Seven Swords, no matter how many Dao Soldiers or how strong the formation, one wouldn’t be able to break through the End Realm limit.
