Summoners: One Golden Term per Level
Chapter 496 - 92: Severing Oneself with a Single Slash
Even Shennong did not speak out to stop; after all, matters of the Human Race should be handled by the Human Race. Previously relying on Dao lineages was excusable.
After all, Shennong was also one of the beneficiaries. The presence or absence of an additional Unity Realm does not significantly affect the battle situation.
Previously, like the Empress of Jiu Li, it was indeed a Dao lineage outside the Human Race.
But they offset each other, and now if you continue to raise the stakes, why can’t the True Immortals of Jiu Li, who are already part of the stakes, be used?
Duan Xiu stepped forward, the might of a True Immortal instantly suppressed the surroundings, even the Human Immortals on both sides of the battle immediately separated.
Li Mu and others looked vigilant, Li Mu even directly spoke, "Do Jiu Li intend to bully the weak with strength, to overpower with size?"
Duan Xiu didn’t even look at the Great General of Youxiong but looked at Cangjie and said, "I heard that Cangjie the wise has the means to fight a True Immortal. The High Priest and the Common Lord have sent me to weigh your methods."
Cangjie’s eyes slightly narrowed, seeing both sides of the battle below and the giant beasts continually exploding in blood mist behind.
He seemed to understand something.
He opened his mouth and said, "Very well, I’ve long heard of the reputation of Priest Duan of Jiu Li, I humbly request your guidance!"
With that said, the two disappeared from the eyes of everyone.
Without Cangjie, Li Mu and the others were instantly at a disadvantage, the advantage they had just accumulated vanished in an instant.
"Damn it!"
Li Mu burned with anger, how could Jiu Li’s strength have reached such a level, two True Immortals is one thing.
Even Shenning the Common Lord is in Jiu Li.
And originally, it was thought that Jiu Li’s True Immortal would not intervene in the Human Immortal battle, but Jiu Li took action.
Shen Fei shifted his gaze away from the Human Immortal battle, without Cangjie to hold them in check, the Human Immortal battle quickly drew to a close.
"It seems we have to push, to see if we can bring Ying Dragon out sooner.
This way, would the final showdown happen sooner, and the battle end more quickly?"
Shen Fei actually held onto that thought as well, considering the trial level of the Ancient Secret Realm, Ying Dragon would surely emerge.
If he continued to exert pressure now, could he force Ying Dragon to appear earlier?
Triggering the Battle of Zhulu in advance, might actually solve this Ancient Secret Realm more quickly.
Otherwise, if things continued.
Who knows if the difficulty would increase, Shen Fei hesitated for a moment and began to give orders.
The Jiuli Array, which had already been assembled once before, reappeared, and the Chiyou Dharma Aspect erupted violently.
All the battlefield’s murderous aura condensed into a single slash.
Slash!
The blade severed the fortress.
The people coordinating within the city had been relieved to have True Martial’s presence, finally averting a terrifying rout.
But seeing this scene, the strike embodying the Law could not possibly be withstood by True Martial.
A low roar sounded: "Form the array!"
The ’Kunqian Inversion Array’ took shape once more, the two clashed, but the ’Kunqian Inversion Array’ had previously been broken.
Now the array’s designers had not yet recovered, Cangjie merely aided those Human Immortals in recovery, but did not help everyone recover.
Or perhaps it was simply not the same thing, the array being broken was an injury to the mind, whereas Li Mu and others were physically injured.
After being broken before, being impacted by murderous aura, it was difficult to concentrate the mind, now hastily forming the array.
Even with assistance from the Profound Lady Race, it was instantly shattered.
The mirror conjured by the ’Kunqian Inversion Array’ was instantly shattered under the swing of Chiyou’s blade.
Within the fortress, countless array-setting individuals fell instantly, and the blade of the Chiyou Dharma Aspect only dimmed slightly.
’Boom—!’
True Martial instantly sprayed blood mist, reverted to his true form in a reverse flight, his face pale.
And the fortress was immediately slashed open with a large gap.
"Not good!"
Li Mu saw the fortress break in an instant, and simultaneously countless Jiu Li soldiers swarmed forth from the defense line like locusts, under the cover of artillery fire.
Slaughtering towards Youxiong Fortress.
"Array rise!"
At this time, a cold voice resounded from within the fortress, various arrays appeared, instantly blocking the countless artillery fire.
Seeing this, the Empress in the camp immediately soared into the sky, the ’freezing’ Law accompanied the Celestial River to collide with the shield, meanwhile, the ground began to surge, shifting all the soldiers charging on the ground back to Jiu Li’s defense line.
"Wind Queen? How did the Wind Queen emerge!"
Li Mu immediately recognized the technique of array initiation as belonging to the Wind Queen, but wasn’t the Wind Queen in the Profound Lady clan studying ascension methods?
How did she suddenly appear?
And intervening directly below the Immortal realm...
It’s not right.
How could there be no response from the Eight Trigrams covering Jiuzhou?
"Self-severing a blade?"
When initiating the array, Shennong sensed the presence of the Wind Queen, after all, he had been to Youxiong.
He immediately understood why the Wind Queen intervened without punishment from the ’Eight Trigrams’.
Self-severing a blade from a Human Immortal, transforming into Unity, though the Law is lost, but a bit of remaining power can still be leveraged.
It counts as above Unity, below Human Immortal.
But even so, Shennong was surprised. He had heard the Wind Queen was Xuanyuan’s virtuous minister seen in dreams.
Youxiong could develop this far because it had the Wind Queen and Li Mu at the outset.
Just as at Lie Mountain, he had Ting Yao’s assistance.
A true prodigy of the Human Race, entering the Human Immortal realm faster than the likes of Gonggong and others once did.
Having the potential to enter True Immortal, being able to comprehend an array controlled by humans and immortals.
But now, to self-sever a blade?
"Self-severing a blade?"
Shen Fei was somewhat confused, could the system of the Great Wilderness be this way?
It seems that Professionals are relatively simplistic, if he could self-sever a blade, lowering his level.
Could he then ascend again, continuing to extract entries?
After being here for some time now, if not for the continuous presence of the panel, Shen Fei would feel he had already fused into this Great Wilderness.
However, if we speak of the Great Wilderness system, the speed of cultivating strong ones on Blue Star as Professionals is still faster.
Though he cannot cultivate, but as long as he slays Abyssal Creatures he could grow stronger.
This is much quicker than so-called cultivation...
’Could this be the special trait of Blue Star?’
Shen Fei now somewhat grasped some traces of what lies behind Blue Star, its system indeed appears unique.
It seems to be specially designed for cultivators born for slaughter.
"Does self-severing a blade have any drawbacks?"
"Impossible to re-enter the Human Immortal, henceforth only within Unity.
Though stronger than Unity.
But due to self-severing a blade, their lifespan is even shorter than a regular Unity."
Shen Fei looked at the array enveloping the fortress, meaning that the Wind Queen did this to block him now.
She seems to have given up the opportunity to ascend to True Immortal, even sacrificing her Human Immortal cultivation.
"Why must it come to this?" Shen Fei shook his head.
...
"Why must it come to this!"
Xuanyuan also received a message from the Profound Lady, detailing why the Wind Queen self-severed a blade.
Knowing that to enter True Immortal through the array would take a long time, Jiu Li came aggressively.
Even if he became a True Immortal, by then the situation was already determined, he also learned the frontline’s situation from the Profound Lady clan.
Out of necessity, even using him as a wall to continue blocking Jiu Li, awaiting Ying Dragon’s entry into True Immortal.
Only then will it be the true time for the decisive battle.
But if Ying Dragon does not emerge, how will the showdown occur?
