Peach Blossom Mountain Liu Jiaxiu's Biography

Chapter 1490 Battle Against the Insect Swarm (Part 3)

The unprecedented and fierce battle between Liu Changxu and his team and the Zerg army lasted for a full day and night.

The terrifying aftershocks of the fierce battle between the two sides, like a suddenly awakened raging torrent, completely churned the once relatively calm sea. Giant waves formed walls, crashing outwards with devastating force. Wherever they passed, islands large and small were easily swept away from their spots like toys in a child's hand, crashing into the raging sea. The splashes of water rose straight to the clouds, even dyeing the sky a murky gray-white.

Above the void, the energy torrent generated by the collision of spiritual treasures and divine powers was even more violent and incomparably fierce. Countless tiny, dark spatial cracks spread out like a spider web, exuding a chilling aura that could devour everything. The terrifying sound waves accompanying the collision exploded were like thousands of giant drums beating at the same time, piercing through the flesh and straight to the soul, causing all living beings around to tremble involuntarily. It was as if even the heavens and earth were slightly shaking in this deafening roar.

In the end, they successfully severely injured all three ninth-tier superior insect emperors and killed thirteen ninth-tier mid-to-low-tier insect emperors, routing the surging insect army and sending them fleeing in all directions.

However, behind this pyrrhic victory lay the wounds of everyone present. Liu Changxu, Murong Yuyao, Liu Fuhai, Jin Haonan, Zhang Yunping, and others all stood wounded, their clothes stained with blood, their breathing disordered.

Zhang Yunping was the most seriously injured. His physical body had been completely destroyed by the siege of the Insect Kings, and only his primordial spirit had managed to escape.

Although Liu Changxu endured most of the attacks from the ninth-tier insect kings in the fierce battle, his injuries were actually the lightest thanks to the protection of innate spiritual treasures such as the Ruyi Golden Armor and the Ruyi Xuanhuang Pagoda.

After a day and a night of intense fighting, his magical power was almost completely depleted. If it weren't for the Azure Lotus Creation Disc continuously converting and replenishing his magical power, he probably wouldn't have lasted until the end.

Seeing the Zerg army routed and fleeing, Liu Changxu immediately summoned the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship. With a flash of light, the giant ship was already hovering in mid-air. He waved for everyone to board, then turned around and headed back home.

On the deck of the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship, the sea breeze carried a faint smell of blood. Jin Haonan and Zhang Yunping, who was now only a primordial spirit, hurriedly returned to their cabin to heal their wounds. Only Liu Changxu's family remained, all of them covered in blood and wounds, silently watching the battlefield gradually disappear into the distance.

Liu Fuhai, the son, struggled to his feet, looked at his father, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Father, Mother, go and heal your wounds! I'll take charge of the guard duty!"

Murong Yuyao was deeply moved by her son's advice. Despite her injuries, she said, "Your Majesty, Fuhai, you should both rest and heal your wounds. I will take charge of guarding Jia!"

Faced with his wife and children's persuasion, Liu Changxu did not refuse. He knew that he needed to recover to his peak condition as soon as possible to prevent any unforeseen circumstances along the way. So he nodded, patted Liu Fuhai on the shoulder, and turned back to his secluded chamber on the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship.

Back in the secret chamber, Liu Changxu sat cross-legged, took out a healing pill and swallowed it. Then he focused his mind and began to meditate and regulate his breathing, repairing his damaged meridians while activating the Azure Lotus Creation Disc to replenish his depleted mana. Gradually, a faint spiritual light began to linger in the secret chamber.

On the morning of the fourth day, Liu Changxu slowly walked out of the closed-door chamber of the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship and appeared on the deck.

At this moment, his aura was calm and deep, and spiritual light shone around him. Not only had his injuries been healed, but his exhausted magic power had also been fully restored to its peak state. The weariness between his brows was replaced by a restrained sharpness.

His ability to recover from his injuries and regain his magical power so quickly was undoubtedly due to the decisive role played by the Azure Lotus Creation Disc. As a mid-grade ninth-rank innate spiritual treasure, the Azure Lotus Creation Disc can autonomously absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the essence of the sun and moon, and then refine these mixed energies into a vibrant "power of creation".

The power of creation is an energy with many miraculous effects. It can help cultivators nourish damaged meridians and flesh, accelerating the healing of their injuries; it can also fill the dantian, helping their magical power to quickly recover to its peak.

That's why Liu Changxu was able to restore his body and magical power to their peak state in just three days. Without it, such a recovery speed would have been unimaginable.

During the previous battle against the Zerg, if it hadn't continuously replenished his mana, Liu Changxu would probably have collapsed from exhaustion during that protracted and fierce battle, let alone fully recover his injuries and mana.

On the deck, Liu Fuhai, who was sitting cross-legged, saw his father, the Emperor, come out and quickly got up to greet him.
"Father, are your injuries healed?"

Looking at his son, covered in wounds yet still determined to protect him, Liu Changxu felt a warmth in his heart and nodded with a smile:

"My injuries are completely healed. I'm sorry to have worried you. Go and heal your wounds!"

"Okay, Father!"

Liu Fuhai quickly replied:
After his son Liu Fuhai turned to go into seclusion to heal his injuries, Liu Changxu sat cross-legged on the deck, while the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship continued to fly at high speed toward Jin Huan Island along the established route.

Three days later, when the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship flew to the waters near Golden Ring Island, Liu Changxu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, his gaze sharp as an eagle's, looking towards the distant horizon.

At that moment, flames soared into the sky in the airspace near Golden Ring Island, and turbulent spiritual energy swept in all directions like a raging torrent. Countless figures could be vaguely seen fighting in the light and shadow, and the explosions of spiritual energy collisions and shrill roars intertwined, clearly indicating that an extremely fierce battle was taking place.

Liu Changxu's brows furrowed instantly, and he appeared outside the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship in a flash. Then, with a thought, the Ruyi Sky Patrol Ship transformed into a ray of light and entered his body.

Without hesitation, Liu Changxu immediately used his spatial teleportation ability, his figure transforming into a streak of light as he sped towards Golden Ring Island.

During his journey, he activated his Seven-Colored Glazed Eyes, his gaze piercing through layers of turbulent energy to clearly observe the battle in the distance: the protective array surrounding Golden Ring Island was radiating brilliant spiritual light, its runes flowing with exceptional stability, completely blocking the insectoid army's frenzied offensive. Although the insect swarms attacked fiercely, crashing into the light barrier wave after wave, they could only create ripples on the array's surface, unable to shake its foundation.

What relieved him even more was that a careful count revealed only five ninth-tier Insect Emperors commanding this insectoid army. Compared to the previous insect hordes, this force, while still troublesome, was now under control. Liu Changxu's eyes narrowed, and he increased his speed by another third, instantly closing in on the battlefield.
Inside Golden Ring Island, Duan Yuwei, who was directing human cultivators to resist the insectoid army, quickly shared the good news with the human cultivators after receiving a telepathic message from her husband.

The human cultivators, who were struggling to hold off the insectoid army, were greatly encouraged upon learning that the Supreme One was about to return, and they erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
