Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1483 The Destruction of the Jiuhua Holy Land
Liu Changxu killed the ninth-rank superior insect queen with a single sword strike. Seeing that the insects were leaderless and in disarray, he immediately locked onto the ninth-rank inferior insect queen that was lagging behind in the fleeing group.

With a slight movement of his fingertips, the Ruyi Kongxuan Mirror suddenly hovered in mid-air, and a beam of bright white light shot out like a chain, instantly imprisoning the Insect King in the void, rendering it unable to move.

Before the ninth-tier insect king could break free from the silver mirror light, the Ruyi Soul-Destroying Lamp lit up, and a wisp of dark purple divine light pierced its head. The insect king's body trembled violently, and its soul was instantly severely injured. It then let out a painful roar.

Taking advantage of this moment, Liu Changxu gave an order, and thirty-six Crimson Lotus Immortal Swords transformed into crimson streams of light, surrounding the Insect King like blooming lotus flowers; the Heaven-Turning and Sea-Cleaving Halberd slammed down with the force of collapsing mountains and splitting seas, its tip gleaming coldly; the Great Sun Purple Gold Cauldron hovered to the side, spewing out golden Great Sun True Fire, constantly scorching the Ninth-Order Insect King's protective carapace.

Under the siege of a group of innate spiritual treasures, in just a short while, the low-grade ninth-rank insect king let out a mournful cry amidst divine light and sword shadows, and completely perished. Its massive body crashed heavily into the sea, stirring up towering waves.

The victory in the Third Battle of Golden Ring Island was like a thunderbolt that shattered the gloom over the human race being shrouded in the shadow of the Zerg, greatly boosting everyone's confidence in resisting the Zerg.

The good news spread like wildfire, quickly flying out of Golden Ring Island, across the turbulent seas, and reaching every corner of the human territory.

Those human forces who had been on the verge of despair under the relentless pressure of the Zerg were overjoyed upon hearing the good news. It was as if they had grasped a ray of light in the darkest night. They were greatly encouraged and made up their minds to lead their people and cultivators to migrate to Golden Ring Island.

For them, this victory was undoubtedly the best proof of Liu Changxu's strength—the strongest human being. Under such a cataclysmic disaster, only by relying on his protection could they hope to find a glimmer of hope under the iron hooves of the Zerg.

In an instant, the airspace leading to Golden Ring Island was teeming with human spaceships, one after another, flowing endlessly.

However, the Zerg quickly noticed this large-scale migration. They immediately mobilized their forces and launched a fierce attack on the advancing Terran spaceships. Many Terran spaceships were destroyed in the Zerg raids, and the accompanying personnel suffered heavy casualties.

Even so, Golden Ring Island remained the only place of hope in the hearts of the human race, and they continued to rush to Golden Ring Island and Fire Island.

Even the three great holy lands of the human race—Tianchi, Jiuhua, and Kunlun—sent some of their disciples to Jinhuan Island and Huodi Island for temporary refuge, hoping to preserve the flame of their lineage during this cataclysmic disaster.

After successfully repelling the third invasion of the Zerg, Liu Changxu released the vast majority of the ordinary people of the Great Han Immortal Dynasty who had been housed within the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship, allowing them to resume their normal lives.

The victory in this battle acted as a shot in the arm, completely solidifying Liu Changxu's determination to stay and continue the fight.

However, he did not slack off in the slightest because of this, and immediately devoted himself to upgrading and transforming the island protection formation.

As for settling the various visiting cultivators, he entrusted the task to his wife and children. They had already matured through repeated trials, handling matters with composure and efficiency, and managing the allocation of territory and resource coordination among the different forces in an orderly manner, allowing Liu Changxu to focus wholeheartedly on upgrading the island's protective formation.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye, through the changing seasons. For over seven hundred days and nights, Liu Changxu has devoted almost all his energy to upgrading the protective array around Golden Ring Island.

He and the high-ranking array masters from the Liu family who participated in this work traversed every array base on the island, using their own magical power as a guide to integrate countless rare and precious materials, repeatedly deducing, correcting, and reinforcing them.

The chaotic power at the core of the formation became increasingly refined, the Yin and Yang energies circulated more harmoniously, and the five elements interacted and restrained each other in a cyclical manner, gradually reaching a state of exquisite perfection.

After the last array eye was modified, the entire Golden Ring Island was suddenly enveloped in a hazy halo. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within trillions of surrounding areas surged towards Golden Ring Island like a tide. The Great Zhou Heaven Yin Yang Five Elements Chaos Array finally broke through the bottleneck and barely stabilized at the ninth-order high-grade level.

Looking at the array light screen that covered the entire island, Liu Changxu saw that the runes flowing on it were more than ten times more complex than usual, faintly exuding an earth-shattering power. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Although it was "barely" achieved, it was enough to withstand the simultaneous fierce attack of more than twenty Mahayana powerhouses, and the safety of the human people living on the island was also more guaranteed.

After completing the upgrade of the Golden Ring Island formation, Liu Changxu originally planned to go to Fire Island, but unexpectedly, Jin Haonan came to Golden Ring Island to see him.

Liu Changxu's heart stirred slightly, guessing that something important must be happening, so he immediately left the Ruyi Lotus Palace to go and greet them.

Upon seeing Liu Changxu, Jin Haonan immediately spoke urgently:
"Junior brother, something terrible has happened! According to reliable sources, Wu Jinduo, the Zhenhai Holy Emperor of the Jiuhua Holy Land, was recently surrounded by more than a dozen ninth-tier insect kings in his hiding place. After a fierce battle... Wu Jinduo and the others all perished!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Changxu's heart sank, his brows furrowed instantly, and his voice was filled with shock:
"So, the Nine Hua Holy Land... no longer exists?"

He had long heard of Wu Jinduo's strength, yet he was surrounded and killed by more than a dozen ninth-tier insect emperors, which showed the insect race's determination to exterminate the human race. Looking at Jin Haonan's solemn expression, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Yes! Junior brother, we can't go on like this. We must truly unite and fight the Zerg together!"

Jin Haonan said earnestly:

Liu Changxu frowned slightly, and asked with some confusion:
"Senior brother, aren't we currently working together to resist the Zerg? Perhaps you have a more comprehensive plan?"

"It's not as simple as just working together."

Jin Haonan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Before I came here, I contacted Su Yuxue, the Flying Snow Holy Emperor of Kunlun Holy Land. We both felt that the most urgent task was to truly integrate the forces of all parties and establish an organization that integrates the full power of the human race. Only in this way can we be completely united as one, stop fighting separately, and gather the strongest fighting force to fight against the Zerg!"

He paused and added:
"Empress Su also said that she will come to Golden Ring Island soon to discuss this matter with her junior brother in person."

After listening, Liu Changxu immediately fell into deep thought.

Integrating the strengths of all human races to establish a new power means breaking down past barriers and estrangement, which is by no means an easy task.

But he also knew that Jin Haonan's words were not empty talk. The destruction of the Jiuhua Holy Land was a lesson from the past. If the human race were to fall apart again, its situation would only become more and more difficult.

However, forcibly merging all human forces together is no easy task.
