Nine Regions Sword Emperor

Chapter 7320 Attacking Shadow City

This time, we're attacking Shadow City.

It's not just about weakening Shadow City's power.

Chu Fengmian was determined to stop the Shadow City Lord's plan to take over Jiu Yun's body.

The Shadow City Lord nurtured Jiu Yun, took him as a disciple, and continued to cultivate him. In fact, his goal was to enable Jiu Yun to complete the Shadow City's Great Sacrifice of Annihilation, allowing his power to break through the limits of the strongest and achieve a state surpassing the strongest.

After the completion of the Great Ritual of Annihilation, Jiu Yun's consciousness was erased by the Shadow City Lord. It was as if the Shadow City Lord suddenly appeared and took over Jiu Yun's body during the battle between Chu Fengmian and Jiu Yun.

This couldn't have been done suddenly on a whim.

This means that from the very beginning, the Shadow City Lord cultivated Jiu Yun for the purpose of the Great Sacrifice of Annihilation, and to obtain Jiu Yun's physical body.

That's why they left a backup plan on Jiu Yun's body, so they could take over Jiu Yun's body at any time.

Although Chu Fengmian's battle with Jiu Yun brought forward the Shadow City Lord's plan, the Shadow City Lord's purpose remained unchanged.

That is to seize Jiu Yun's physical body, and with the help of Jiu Yun's immense power, enable the Shadow City Lord to also break through and become an existence surpassing the strongest.

The Shadow City Lord's strength has already reached the peak of the fifth-tier supreme powerhouse.

However, they were never able to take that final step. To obtain power surpassing that of the strongest, it was impossible without external aids.

Even Chu Fengmian only took this step after obtaining the Heavenly Fate Tower.

The same applies to the Shadow City Lord.

In places like Shadow City, there is indeed a way to surpass the strongest, namely the Great Sacrifice of Silence.

As long as one uses this Great Sacrifice of Silence to steal a sufficiently large amount of power from the Mother of No Birth, one can use the power of the Mother of No Birth to become an existence that surpasses the strongest.

Just like the Nine Clouds.

From a martial artist who hadn't even reached the Great Emperor realm, he suddenly possessed power surpassing that of the strongest.

However, the Great Ceremony of Silence in Shadow City is not without its limitations. Although Chu Fengmian has never been involved in the Great Ceremony of Silence, it is clear that certain conditions must be met for him to accept it.

Or perhaps this Great Sacrifice of Annihilation is not as glamorous as it seems; once it is performed, one may have to pay a heavy price.

Jiuyun is the most special one, which is why he possesses such terrifying strength after the Great Sacrifice of Silence.

Regardless of whether the Shadow City Lord did not meet the conditions for the Great Sacrifice of Annihilation or was unwilling to bear the price of the Great Sacrifice of Annihilation.

In the end, the Shadow City Lord did not choose to perform the Great Sacrifice of Silence. Instead, he focused his attention on Jiu Yun. He nurtured Jiu Yun so that he could wait until Jiu Yun performed the Great Sacrifice of Silence and possessed the powerful strength that surpassed that of the strongest.

The Shadow City Lord will then seize Jiu Yun's physical body in order to become an existence surpassing even the strongest.

This has always been the Shadow Lord's goal.

Chu Fengmian's war against Shadow City was precisely to prevent the Shadow City Lord from taking over Jiu Yun's body.

However, even for the Shadow City Lord, it would take some time to fully possess the physical body of someone who surpasses the level of a supreme expert.

This is why the Shadow City Lord chose to escape from the underground palace instead of continuing to fight Chu Fengmian.

Chu Fengmian's attack on Shadow City this time was to force the Shadow City Lord to show himself and to eliminate him before he could fully take over Jiu Yun's body.

Otherwise, once the Shadow City Lord truly possesses Jiu Yun's body and has power surpassing even the strongest, coupled with his martial arts prowess, he will become Chu Fengmian's greatest enemy. Strike first!

Now that he knew about the Shadow City Lord's plan, Chu Fengmian could not sit idly by and wait for his doom.

"Let's do it!"

As Chu Fengmian spoke in a deep voice, everyone nodded.

One after another, figures shot into the sky with a roar, flying towards the towering city before them.

This time, no one concealed their power anymore. The overwhelming power of the strongest beings descended upon this shadowy land, enveloping the city.

"what happened?"

"Someone?"

"How could someone from an outside sect intrude into the Shadow Land?"

Many warriors in Shadow City looked up in surprise at the several figures that appeared in the sky, their eyes revealing their astonishment.

This is the Shadowlands, the lair of Shadow City.

How dare an outsider martial artist break in today?
"Who dares to trespass into this shadowy place! Die!"

boom!
Within Shadow City, some of the elders who were stationed there also noticed the sudden appearance of the group of people. One after another, figures soared into the sky; these were all elders of Shadow City.

In Shadow City, those who can become elders are all Great Emperors. At least a dozen Great Emperors together used their escape light to rush towards the sky.

"No birth! Nirvana!"

boom!
The power of lifelessness erupted simultaneously from these dozen or so emperors, and the immense power of lifelessness converged at this moment, forming a monstrous wave that engulfed and devoured everyone present.

For the warriors of Shadow City, their trump card and most powerful attack method is the "Power of No Life" in their battles against the warriors of the Other Shore Era.

Even martial artists of the same level would find it difficult to defeat the Shadow City martial artists, precisely because of this power of lifelessness.

If it were an ordinary emperor, or even a supreme expert, they would be instantly swallowed up in the face of such a sea of ​​lifeless power.

When these emperors of the Shadow Cities saw Chu Fengmian and his group arrive, they knew they were up to no good, so they immediately unleashed their strongest killing moves.

The dozen or so Shadow City Emperors joined forces to unleash the power of lifelessness. This combined power was comparable to that of an ordinary supreme expert.

However, even among the strongest, there are differences in strength, not to mention that among this group, there is a top-tier expert like Yao Dao Sheng.

While no one else made a move, Yao Daosheng took a step forward and took the initiative. In his palm, his long sword was drawn, and in an instant, a sword intent gathered above Yao Daosheng's head, tearing through the heavens and earth.

The eyes of the Blade Saint were filled with killing intent.

He had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.

Ever since he was besieged by the Six Pillars Kingdom and attacked by the Shadow God in the Shadow Heaven-Slaying Formation, the Radiant Blade Saint has harbored a deep hatred for Shadow City and has long wanted to unleash a massacre.

Therefore, this time, before anyone else could make a move, Yao Daosheng took the initiative. He gathered sword intent on his longsword and slashed down from mid-air.

"Radiance!"

The golden blade light, containing the boundless killing intent in the heart of the Radiant Blade Saint, slashed down fiercely.
