Chapter 1107: Chapter 1016: The Situation Worsens Again—No One May Survive the Lifeless Tide

"We are saved!"

"We are saved!"

"Damn Covering Sky Tower infiltrators, if you have the guts, keep coming at us!"

"Unable to defeat our You Country’s Divine Shadow Army on the battlefield, resorting only to such foul and despicable methods. Do you really think you can defeat our You Country with these tactics?"

On the Lifeless Tide Battlefield, some cheered, while others angrily shouted.

The dawn’s light poured over the Lifeless Tide Battlefield, warming everyone’s hearts, causing many to cry tears of joy.

Yet, at this moment, Yun Liao’s Sound Transmission Stone suddenly stirred.

Seeing Han Wei and Du Duanfeng mostly recovered from their injuries, and the Wood Qi of the Lifeless Tide Battlefield depleted, Yun Liao decided to stop the Forest Song.

Just picking up the Sound Transmission Stone, he heard a voice from the other end.

It was Wen Ping’s voice!

"Watch out!"

"Sect Leader?"

Yun Liao was startled.

Clearly, reinforcements had arrived, and logically, the crisis should have been resolved, right?

Why did the Sect Leader suddenly use the Sound Transmission Stone to warn him to be cautious?

Could it be...

A sense of unease arose in Yun Liao’s heart.

"Things probably aren’t over yet," Wen Ping’s voice came again from the Sound Transmission Stone, "Protect the Sect disciples, don’t worry about anything else."

"Understood!"

Yun Liao nodded.

As the words fell, the Storm Sword Array suddenly arose!

Thousands of silver Light Sabers formed a fortress-like protection around all Immortal Sect disciples, simultaneously releasing Tier Three Water Magic—the Mirror Lake Barrier!

With the Storm Sword Array as the center, a mirror, clear like water, suddenly rose, enveloping the Storm Sword Array.

Sword Array inside!

Barrier outside!

With this level of strength, even if an Earth Unrestricted Expert arrived, Yun Liao was confident it could withstand their Vein Technique attack.

Yun Liao’s move stunned everyone for a moment.

People from Xuan Court Pavilion and Yin Yang Family, nearby Yun Liao, felt relieved yet bewildered at this sight.

Han Wei and Du Duanfeng were puzzled but chose to trust Yun Liao at this moment, given Yun Liao’s prowess, why suddenly act as if confronted by a great enemy?

Something was definitely amiss!

"Everyone, Defensive Vein Array!" Han Wei immediately shouted.

Du Duanfeng quickly followed up, "All Yangyang Family disciples, form Vein Formation Array, defend!"

Everyone looked toward their seniors, trusting them, and promptly opened their Meridian Gate, forming the Defensive Vein Array!

Bang—

Bang—

The Xuan Court Pavilion side, a mist-like Vein Qi Shield enveloped everyone, protecting them within.

On the Yangyang Family side, once the Vein Array formed, thin shields condensed on all sides, appearing and disappearing, with everyone inside vigilantly watching the surroundings following Du Duanfeng.

Everyone was clueless why Immortal Sect, Xuan Court Pavilion, and Yin Yang Family suddenly acted this way, adding to their confusion.

"What’s wrong with them?"

"Celestial Industry Divine General dispatched people, the Covering Sky Tower infiltrators’ time is up, yet why are these three acting as if facing a major threat?"

Amid the chatter, Jun Tianyi and others glanced towards Wen Ping, as Wen Ping was the one who first warned Yun Liao to be cautious!

Why did Wen Ping say this?

"Sect Leader Wen?"

Jun Tianyi queried in confusion.

Wen Ping explained, "There are stronger infiltrators within the Lifeless Tide Battlefield. Though we don’t know why they can hide their Realm from being detected by you all, it’s certain that they will act!"

"More powerful infiltrators?" Jun Tianyi was already perplexed, glanced towards the Lifeless Tide Battlefield, scrutinized everyone before him, then looked puzzled at Wen Ping again, "Sect Leader Wen, have you discovered them?"

"No need to ask me, they have already exposed themselves!" Just as Wen Ping’s words ended, three massive booms erupted within the Lifeless Tide Battlefield.

Bang—

Bang—

Bang—

Bang—

The sound of three simultaneous four-vein openings echoed.

When the four veins simultaneously opened, those around them were dumbstruck.

Earlier, they were merely Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression, Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression, even seeking help against the Puppet Tide.

"Been holding back for too long!" At the moment of four veins opening, the Earth Unrestricted infiltrator within the crowd’s Vein Gate trembled, and he stomped his foot, creating hundreds of meter-long stone spikes, annihilating everyone within a hundred-meter radius.

Hundreds of Red Domain elites perished in the blink of an eye!

The other two, although didn’t instantly slay as many Red Domain elites, their casual attacks still killed dozens around them.

The number wasn’t large, yet it shocked everyone!

"Earth Unrestricted infiltrators!"

"Inside Lifeless Tide, hidden Earth Unrestricted infiltrators!"

"Damn Covering Sky Tower, so despicable!"

The sound of curses resonated through the skies, but this did not intimidate the three infiltrators within the Lifeless Tide Battlefield; instead, they became even more blatant.

The three grinned grimly, scanning the surroundings, taunting everyone and the four Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted commanders under Celestial Industry Divine General.

"Gutsy, even after seeing us come, you dare to show yourselves!" In the sky, the leading green-browed man immediately took out something from his bosom.

It seemed to be a key!

It was the Lifeless Key!

At the sight of this item, Mist City, Jun Tianyi, and others rejoiced, then leaped towards the edge of the Lifeless Tide Barrier.

Prepare to rush into the Lifeless Tide Battlefield the moment the Lifeless Shield disappears, and crush those three Earth Unrestricted ants!

The man with green eyebrows gripped the Lifeless Key, and as it emitted a golden mist, he immediately shouted: "Stop for me!"

As his words fell, everyone held their breath, and an absolute silence ensued.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths...

The Lifeless Tide remained utterly still.

Clutching the Lifeless Key, the man with green eyebrows yelled again, "Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!"

However, the Lifeless Tide remained completely unresponsive.

The other three commanders of the Divine Shadow Army hurried over and closely examined the key.

"What’s going on?"

"The key isn’t broken!"

"Try activating the key again."

The man with green eyebrows wore a somber expression and said, "It’s useless, I can feel it; the connection between the Lifeless Key and the Lifeless Tide has been severed by something unknown."

Suddenly.

The battlefield of the Lifeless Tide erupted with a mocking laugh.

"Waited for so long, expecting to see the helplessness of the Celestial Industry Divine General, but alas, how unfortunate."

"Your Lifeless Key is already useless. The moment the black mist enveloped the Lifeless Tide, its control was revoked. The so-called Lifeless Key is now merely a slightly valuable piece of White Crystal."

"Did you really think we weren’t prepared? You all watch as we slaughter these prodigies. You people of You Country, so naive, and that Celestial Industry Divine General... isn’t much either."

After their light mockery, the Meridian Gate trembled simultaneously.

The massacre began!

The three of them, like butchers, surged towards the people in the battlefield of the Lifeless Tide. Wherever they passed, be it the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression prodigies or the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression prodigies, they were slain in an instant, their bodies and heads separated.

There was no choice.

Even though all were prodigies, possessing peak combat power within the Middle Unity Realm and outstanding talents, the difference in realms was too stark.

No matter how talented you are, you have yet to grow. Facing Earth Unrestricted experts, there is no outcome but death.

"Run!"

"Run quickly!"

The thousand remaining people in the Lifeless Tide immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

At this moment, staying together was no different from waiting to die.

Despair spread at this moment in the Lifeless Tide Battlefield.

The people of Xuan Court Pavilion and Yin Yang Family, upon witnessing this scene, turned exceedingly grim.

Though they understood why Yun Liao was so on edge earlier, knowing their opponents were three Earth Unrestricted experts left them shaken, unsure of how to proceed.

If there were only one Earth Unrestricted, they might join forces to eliminate them, but there were three.

The odds of victory were slim!

Even at this moment, after regaining confidence post-qualifiers and semi-finals, Ye Wumei and others, under Yun Liao’s protection, remained tense.

"That Zhetian Tower is truly insidious, sending three Earth Unrestricted experts into the Lifeless Tide Battlefield to wipe us out!"

"What should we do now?"

"If we join forces with others, we surely can find a way to deal with these three intruders. Trust Elder Yun, he certainly has a plan!"

As discussions arose, Yun Liao made a decision in his heart, deciding it was better to fight than to sit and wait for death.

Yun Liao took out the Sound Transmission Stone.

"Sect Leader, I may not be able to enjoy that Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted demon god mount. Rather than waiting for death, let’s fight them!"

Wen Ping, holding the Sound Transmission Stone, showed no emotional change on his face, replying calmly, "Follow your plan, I have your back."

"Sect Leader, since you say so, I’m going for it!" Although Yun Liao didn’t know what backup Wen Ping had, since the Sect Leader assured him, what was there to fear?

Just some intruders! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Fight!

Right now, being in the Lifeless Tide Battlefield, he could utilize the Vortex Map’s special ability to continuously restore spiritual power. As long as he wasn’t instantly killed, he could remain at peak condition!

After putting away the Sound Transmission Stone, Yun Liao immediately told the Immortal Sect’s people, "Join the Xuan Court Pavilion’s team, but don’t act rashly."

"Elder Yun!"

"Elder Yun!"

With the withdrawal of the Storm Sword Array from the Mirror Lake Barrier, the people of the Immortal Sect seemed to understand what Yun Liao intended to do and wanted to stop him, but Yun Liao had already controlled the sword and gone, forming the Storm Sword Array mid-air, attacking one of the Earth Unrestricted intruders.

Thousands of silver long swords danced in the air, then converged, transforming into a hurricane, attacking the intruder who was raising a Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression prodigy’s corpse to taunt the outsiders of the Lifeless Tide.

"Hmm?"

The Earth Unrestricted intruder was startled, sensing the overwhelming sword intent behind him and raised a brow, then the Meridian Gate trembled, and a Stone Bell condensed as the Meridian Gate shook, and was then lifted single-handedly and smashed towards the approaching Storm Sword Array!

Thousands of long swords collided with the Stone Bell and were snapped, but they also resonated the Stone Bell, making it ring gloomily as if on the verge of shattering.

However, after breaking thousands of swords, the Stone Bell did not fracture.

"Yun Liao, you truly are the greatest prodigy of the Red Domain. I didn’t expect your sword array could withstand my Earth Breaking Stone Bell head-on." The Earth Unrestricted intruder expressed admiration and then the Meridian Gate trembled again, and the Stone Bell suddenly enlarged.

The hundred-zhang Stone Bell flew into the air abruptly.

Then it descended suddenly!

Crashing towards Yun Liao.

At the same time, a giant figure suddenly appeared within the Storm Sword Array.

It was a hundred zhang tall.

It held a giant sword in its embrace.

As the Stone Bell descended, it drew its sword fiercely, with unmatched sharp sword intent, stabbing towards the Earth Unrestricted intruder.

"Sword Spirit!"

Above the Lifeless Tide.

Cloud Water exclaimed in astonishment.
