The Supreme Elder of Golden Scale Sacred Land seemed to have seen through the Taishi Sect Leader’s intentions and interrupted him.

"Don’t even think about it; do you think you can still pull back now?" he sneered. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

After the dissolution of Cyan Hope Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, disciples from various Immortal Sects had already charged into the mountain gate.

The quickest ones had already begun clashing with Cyan Hope Sect’s disciples.

The Taishi Sect Leader sighed and said no more.

Let alone the fact that the alliance army of the Immortal Sects was already poised for action, the fact that Lv Bai became a Mahayana Cultivator in such a short time also warranted dealing with such an unbelievable monster if the chance presented itself.

The Sect Leader of Baptism by Fire Sect’s face was equally grave, and since no effort was made to keep the conversation from him, he also understood everything clearly.

"Dear Elders, let’s act quickly and prevent Cyan Hope Sect from stalling," he said decisively and launched his attack.

The surrounding air temperature rose dramatically in a shocking manner; under the influence of the high temperature, the air around the Sect Leader grew distorted.

He clasped his hands together and then pushed outward with his palms.

Boom~

The intense heat rapidly solidified, transforming into a massive red fire dragon tens of meters long, slithering through the air and rushing toward the mountain gate.

Much like a dragon setting a mountain ablaze, the spiritual plants within the mountain gate were immediately scorched to a crisp, soon spontaneously igniting.

The Cyan Hope Sect disciples along the way had no ability to resist whatsoever; all were reduced to fiery figures, emitting ghastly screams.

"Bastard!"

Another Cyan Hope Sect Elder stepped forward, his body radiating bone-chilling mana waves.

He attempted to extinguish the fire dragon, but the difference in cultivation was too great; the spirit technique he unleashed only caused the dragon’s head to emit bursts of white steam.

Not only did he fail to achieve his aim, but the rising steam further increased the overall temperature at the mountain gate.

The Baptism by Fire Sect Leader sneered, "Overestimation of one’s capabilities."

The Cyan Hope Sect’s several Elders were all Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators, with the entire sect having only Master Yuxu at the Integration Stage.

Whereas among the high-tier cultivators in the clouds, the lowest were Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators, and there were multiple Mahayana Cultivators like the Supreme Elder.

Now with Master Yuxu struck down by Golden Scale Sacred Land’s Supreme Elder, his life and death unknown, even if the remaining Cyan Hope Sect Elders gave their all, with Divinity Transformation Stage cultivation, they could hardly trouble the Immortal Sect Alliance Army.

Disciples from various Immortal Sects charged across the square without stopping, stars scattered, advancing toward each peak.

The situation was visibly one-sided.

Within the mountain gate, Cyan Hope Sect’s disciples suffered heavy losses in mere minutes while members from other Immortal Sects already stormed into Cyan Hope Sect’s main peak.

Rather than a battle, it was simply this Immortal Sect Alliance Army advancing.

Barely encountering much resistance to slow their pace.

The Scripture Pavilion and Treasure Vault faced the brunt of the assault.

...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Continuous explosions caused by various mana attacks rang out.

Inside a cave mansion on Rain Mist Peak.

Chang returned to the cave mansion, his face pale, his once white attire was now damaged and bloodstained, evident of a fierce battle.

Shi Qingyu curled up in a corner, trembling unceasingly, "Senior Brother Chang, what do we do now?"

Before Lv Bai appeared, Chang was Cyan Hope Sect’s foremost disciple, naturally unwilling to leave in times of sect difficulty.

He hadn’t expected Shi Qingyu to stay behind secretly; at the time, the Mountain Protection Array was already active. Helpless, he had to place the newly admitted junior sister in his cave mansion.

Managing a forced smile, Chang said, "Don’t worry, I’ll surely get you out."

But Shi Qingyu began shaking her head frantically, distressed to tears as she asked, "What’s happening outside? Is our Cyan Hope Sect really going to be annihilated?"

Chang intended to soothe her feelings, but before he could speak, voices were heard outside the cave mansion.

"Come quickly, there’s a cave mansion here."

"And there’s a restriction, Yun, only your Spirit Array Sect skills can crack it, take a look."

"Just an ordinary concealment..."

Listening to the voices drifting in from outside the cave mansion, Chang roughly perceived the situation and his face instantly changed drastically.

Regrets were of no use under the circumstances.

He then sternly whispered to Shi Qingyu, "The cultivation of those outside isn’t weaker than mine; quickly hide, I’ll lure them away. Remember, until everything calms down, never leave the cave mansion."

Timing his move, Chang released the restriction and then courageously took action.

While injuring one person, he swiftly flew in the opposite direction.

But just as he was about to pick up speed...

Whoosh!!!

A piercing shrillness that made one’s scalp tingle approached from afar.

Judging by the sound’s increasing speed, it arrived above from the distant horizon almost instantly.

Among the clouds, the high-tier cultivators from various Immortal Sects were all equally shocked.

Their cultivation was high enough to recognize what it was.

This speed wasn’t of Dao or Law, but a speed beyond Mahayana Cultivator’s realm, mere speed, so fast it defied comprehension.

Even those deeply attuned to elemental great paths like wind, thunder, or light couldn’t, by the limitations of the cultivator themselves, reach such astounding levels.

Suddenly, that pitch-black silhouette flashed near Golden Scale Sacred Land’s Supreme Elder.

A mysteriously incomprehensible punch came crashing down, with visible terrifying ripples akin to small stones dropped on a river, causing concentric circles rippling outward in the air.

Golden Scale Sacred Land’s Supreme Elder, standing at the apex of cultivation among Mahayana Cultivators, was sent flying with a single punch.

After smashing through two large mountains, he fell like a meteor and hit the ground, triggering a small earthquake.

Lv Bai waved away the darkness cloaking him, standing in the sky.

Indeed, aside from methods of traversing the void, he normally would never make it there so swiftly, nor could any Mahayana Cultivator.

His crossing of half of Xuan Province within such short duration was mainly due to [All Ink] and the restored [Strike in the Dark].

With Mahayana level cultivation, accelerating more than tenfold, he achieved what seemed like a miracle to others.

However, this breathtaking speed mode consumed him greatly, quickly switching [Strike in the Dark] to [Super-speed Regeneration] ensured his stamina recovery rose from a fading hope to destiny.

Lv Bai’s gaze swept across the faces of the high-tier cultivators in the clouds, an earnest smile emerged.

"I’m not too late, am I?"
