Chapter 473 A Battle Between Great Cultivators [Please Subscribe]

Fengguo, Chunyang Valley.

Chunyang Valley was originally the mountain gate of Chunyang Sect, a major sect of the Feng Kingdom.

Because of the defeat in the great battle against the Corpse Demon Sect, the sect's Nascent Soul stage patriarch perished, and the Chunyang Sect was subsequently wiped out by the Corpse Demon Sect, with its sacred mountain grounds becoming the territory of the Corpse Demon Sect.

After the Yuanmo Legion invaded the Tianling Territory, the Spring Sun Valley was ceded by the Corpse Demon Sect and became an important garrison point for the Yuanmo Legion.

Currently, over five thousand demonic cultivators are amassed within Spring Sun Valley, and it is protected by a very powerful forbidden array.

At this moment, Wei Yong led his troops directly to the outside of Chunyang Valley and stayed there.

Within two hours of Zhou Chun's battalion arriving, two more battalions arrived at the location.

"Our mission this time is to attack, a full-scale attack!"

"You don't need to worry about any reinforcements coming, because this is a full-scale offensive, and not many demonic cultivators can come to support this place."

In the sky, Wei Yong and the other two commanders shouted orders and announced the mission.

It's a full-scale offensive war!

Upon hearing Wei Yong's words, Zhou Chun was also taken aback.

Although this full-scale offensive is not as significant as the final all-out assault, it is still the first such offensive since the start of the war.

This means that as long as those Nascent Soul stage cultivators don't call a halt, even if they breach Spring Sun Valley, they will continue to fight elsewhere.

This situation is fundamentally different from the previous solo attack on the Yinxuan Cave stronghold.

Time was of the essence for Zhou Chun, and with the orders issued by Commanders Wei Yong and others, the attack began quickly.

More than 10,000 cultivators from the three battalions of the Heavenly Spirit Legion gathered on the east side of Spring Sun Valley, spreading out in a fan shape to the north and south, and launched an attack on Spring Sun Valley together.

The protective array of Chunyang Valley is extremely powerful, extending for dozens of miles in depth.

The attacks launched by the Heavenly Spirit Legion landed in the formation, but only a few sounds were heard, and the effect was very poor.

After watching for a while, Zhou Chun couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly.

Even though he didn't know much about formations, he knew that if he continued to attack like this, it would probably take a month to break the formation.

This is completely different from the battle at Yinxuan Cave, because the spiritual vein level of Chunyang Valley is incomparable to that of Yinxuan Cave.

However, Wei Yong and several other commanders did not seem anxious. Even though the attack was not going well, they remained calm and unhurried.

For several days, the situation on the battlefield remained unchanged, and there was no news of any important demonic strongholds being breached.

Such a situation, with much talk but little action, makes one wonder if the so-called all-out offensive war is really happening.

Even commanders like Wei Yong were filled with doubt, wondering why their superiors would launch such an untimely full-scale attack at this juncture.

However, they all received instructions and orders from more than one Nascent Soul stage cultivator, instructing them to carry out the mission according to the orders.

So even if they were full of doubts, they acted as if they had everything under control, and ordered their subordinates to carry out the instructions from above.

On the third day after the Tianling Legion launched its full-scale offensive, a group of uninvited guests arrived in the Desolate Spirit Desert.

Led by the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator Kunxu Zhenren, a commando team of nineteen Nascent Soul cultivators from the Heavenly Spirit Realm took a detour and stormed into the Desolate Spirit Desert.

Those Nascent Soul stage cultivators of the Yuanmo Legion who were confronting the Tianling Legion's Nascent Soul stage cultivators on the front lines could not have imagined that the all-out offensive war was just a smokescreen to attract their attention.

The real killer move is actually this nineteen-person squad.

At this time, the group of nineteen Nascent Soul stage monsters, after venturing into the desolate Spirit Desert for an unknown distance, stopped in a deep ravine.

After the group stopped, Master Kunxu glanced at the many old monsters and said in a low voice, "We are less than a thousand miles from Luan Kong Mountain. If we go any further, we will easily enter the vigilance range of some old demons. It is up to you, Fellow Daoist Liuyun, to decide what to do next."

After he finished speaking, his gaze naturally fell on an old man in a blue robe.

Upon seeing this, the elderly man in blue solemnly replied, "I will certainly do my best!"

After saying that, he raised his sleeve and waved it, and a cloud of white smoke appeared in front of him.

Then, with a surge of his magic power, the white cloud of smoke suddenly expanded and grew a hundred times larger, enveloping all nineteen Nascent Soul stage monsters present.

The white cloud of smoke quickly faded and disappeared, along with the Nascent Soul stage monster inside.

Within the vanishing white mist, a Nascent Soul stage expert, after surveying the area with his divine sense, couldn't help but exclaim, "Tsk tsk tsk, truly worthy of being an ancient, long-lost spiritual treasure! Fellow Daoist Liuyun, while your [Taiyi Cloud Mist Net] spiritual treasure lacks offensive capabilities, its ability to conceal and fly is unparalleled. With such a treasure by your side, as long as you're not in the heavily guarded areas of various sects, you can go anywhere in the world!"

Hearing his envious words, the old man in blue replied calmly, "Fellow Daoist Wen, you flatter me. This treasure is only rare nowadays. If the method of refining it had not been lost, with your abilities, Fellow Daoist Wen, you would certainly be able to refine one."

Upon hearing this, the Nascent Soul cultivator surnamed Wen shook his head slightly, seemingly disagreeing with the statement, and said again, "Fellow Daoist Liuyun, why bother..."

But before he could finish speaking, Master Kunxu suddenly interrupted him, saying, "Alright, if Fellow Daoist Wen wants to discuss these matters with Fellow Daoist Liuyun, there will be plenty of time later. For now, let him focus on controlling his magic weapon to protect us!"

Upon hearing him speak, the Nascent Soul cultivator surnamed Wen gave an awkward smile and fell silent.

Soon after, the white cloud of smoke led a group of Nascent Soul stage monsters into a special region.

The ground was covered with traces of fire and lightning strikes, and in some places, a large crater had appeared out of nowhere, as if it had been burned, and the surrounding soil had all crystallized.

In other places, there were sword marks everywhere, each one hundreds of feet long and bottomless!

Anyone who sees this will know that a fierce battle must have taken place here, and the strength of the two sides must be unfathomable.

"The methods of the ancient Nascent Soul cultivators are truly incredible and inconceivable!"

Looking at the ravaged land, an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage couldn't help but murmur, "It is said that it is precisely because the power of these ancient Nascent Soul Venerables caused too much damage to this world that the current Nascent Soul Venerables dare not easily take action, lest..."

Before he could finish speaking, Master Kunxu looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Be careful what you say!"

"Fellow Daoist Kunxu is right; I was rash and spoke out of turn."

The man looked startled and quickly stopped talking, daring not to say anything more.

It is also very necessary to keep the reputation of the venerable ones secret in the cultivation world.

Although the Nascent Soul cultivators all live in seclusion, it doesn't mean they enjoy being talked about.

Who knows if any of these nineteen people will one day meet a Nascent Soul cultivator?

After continuing to venture further in, the group finally spotted their destination in the distance.

In the far distance on the horizon, a giant gate emitting a faint white light stood in the sky, surrounded by numerous demonic birds circling and flying around it.

"So that's the modified space teleportation channel? It's incredible, truly awe-inspiring!"

Many Nascent Soul stage monsters who witnessed this scene for the first time stared in shock at the giant light gate, speechless.

As the saying goes, the layman sees the spectacle, the expert sees the details.

Only those Nascent Soul stage monsters knew the extraordinary skill required to create such a spatial teleportation channel, and how profound the application of spatial principles was involved.

After a long period of shock, Master Liuyun finally spoke, saying, "This is pretty much my limit. If we get any closer, even the [Taiyi Cloud and Mist Net] won't be able to conceal our presence, given the keen senses of a great cultivator!"

"It's alright, Fellow Daoist Liuyun, you've already done a great service by bringing us here. We can just charge straight over from here!"

Master Kunxu spoke softly.

Then, turning his gaze to Qingxiao Zhenren, he said in a solemn tone, "Fellow Daoist Qingxiao, your task today is the most important. I hope you can successfully complete it!"

"Fellow Daoist Kunxu, rest assured, I will repay your kindness with my life!"

Master Qingxiao answered calmly, and the meaning in his words made many other Nascent Soul cultivators turn their heads in surprise.

Few people knew about the private dealings between Master Kunxu and Master Qingxiao, so apart from a few people like Master Yinyue, no one else was aware of it at this time.

Before the matter was accomplished, Master Kunxu naturally would not leak the news.

After emphasizing the importance of this operation to everyone again, Master Kunxu ordered Master Liuyun to rush towards the gate of light with all his might.

At the same time, just as Master Liuyun was wielding the [Taiyi Cloud and Smoke Net] and rushed into the area within a hundred miles of the light gate, a blood-red demonic light suddenly broke through the air and attacked, forcing Master Kunxu to personally take action to destroy the blood-red demonic light.

Then the group of people all revealed themselves!

"Fellow Daoists, proceed according to plan!"

After revealing his form, Kunxu Zhenren let out a low shout and immediately raised his sleeve, sending a hundred-zhang-long azure wind dragon rushing towards the direction from which the blood-red demonic light was coming.

Immediately, a burst of blood-red light appeared, and a blood-red demonic sword, carrying a dense blood-red light, slashed at the azure wind dragon, instantly shattering it into pure spiritual energy.

The owner of this blood-red demonic sword was none other than a short child who was less than four feet tall!

This short child had rosy lips and white teeth, and delicate features; he was very endearing.

But as soon as they heard of his name, that fondness immediately turned into fear.

In the Yuanmo Realm, the name of "Blood Infant Ancestor" is renowned and known to all!

This late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the Blood Bone Sect is renowned in the cultivation world for his unique appearance and bloodthirsty methods. It is said that one of his supernatural abilities requires him to drink human blood every day to increase its power.

After becoming a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, he even captured an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who had offended him and made him his blood slave, providing him with the highest quality blood every day!

Within the Blood Bone Sect, this late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator possessed over a thousand blood slaves, many of whom were former disciples of the Blood Bone Sect.

For the disciples of the Blood Bone Sect, becoming the blood slave of this sect's patriarch is a punishment more terrifying than death!

At this moment, he made a domineering entrance, annihilating Kunxu Zhenren's divine power with a single sword strike. "Blood Infant Ancestor" then looked at Kunxu Zhenren with icy eyes and said, "Kunxu, did you launch such a massive offensive on the front lines just to create a diversion and cover your attack on the spatial gate?"

"If that's the case, then you'll have to get past me first!"

Just as he was speaking, figures flew in from all directions through the spatial teleportation channel; they were all Nascent Soul stage old demons.

In the end, there were sixteen Nascent Soul stage demon lords who appeared in the sky!

"This humble Taoist also wishes to experience Fellow Daoist Blood Infant's demonic arts!"

Kunxu Zhenren uttered a few words and immediately raised his hand, and a strangely shaped phoenix-winged weapon appeared in mid-air.

This weapon is shaped like an eagle's wing, with a broad blade in blue and white. Both sides of the blade have feather-like patterns, making it look like a blade made from feathers!

As soon as this treasure appeared, the wind-attribute spiritual energy from all directions immediately converged upon it, automatically forming a blue and white bird that vaguely resembled the legendary Heavenly Phoenix.

You must know that this is the Desolate Desert, a region where spiritual energy is scarce or even nonexistent!

In such a place, the mere appearance of this treasure can cause such extraordinary phenomena, which shows just how powerful it is!

Upon seeing this, the "Blood Infant Ancestor" opposite him also changed his expression slightly and couldn't help but exclaim, "What a magnificent spiritual treasure! I didn't expect you to have refined your natal magic weapon to such an extent!"

After saying that, his expression darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "However, I am no worse than you!"

Then, with a snap of his fingers, a sound like a baby crying rang out from inside the blood-red demonic sword. Dense blood light surged from the sword, vaguely condensing into a faceless blood demon phantom.

Immediately afterwards, the two great cultivators attacked each other almost simultaneously, activating their respective natal magic weapons.

The phoenix-winged weapon pierced through the air, accompanied by countless tiny phoenixes formed from the surrounding wind spirits, as if a hundred birds were paying homage to the phoenix.

Those phoenixes may look small, but each one can easily kill a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, and even a early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator could be injured!

In contrast, the blood-red demonic sword had its power concentrated on its blade. Wherever the flying sword passed, ripples like water appeared in the void, as if it were about to tear the void apart!

These two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators actually used their true abilities right from the start, showing no intention of testing each other!

In the blink of an eye, the two incredibly powerful magical treasures clashed in mid-air.

In an instant, the world lost its color, and the sun and moon lost their light!

An overwhelming power raged and unleashed in mid-air, as if the ordinary cultivators' sight, hearing, and even divine sense were all stripped away.

My vision was blurred, filled with blue, white and red colors. I could hardly hear anything, as if I had lost my hearing. If I tried to project my consciousness outward, it would be torn apart!

Within a radius of several dozen miles where the two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were fighting, no one else could stay except for the two of them!

Even the residual power left behind would leave deep marks on the ground, as if a Golden Core cultivator had struck the ground with a magic weapon.

In other words, even these aftershocks have the power to kill a Golden Core cultivator!

Without glasses, and with severe astigmatism, my eyes get sore and swollen after writing on the computer for a while. I can only write slowly and intermittently for now, and I can only manage 4,000 words. I'll see if my new glasses arrive tomorrow!
