Although the base of the Defying Heaven Alliance was not small, under the search of numerous Heaven’s Gate experts, they were still found.

The confident Heaven’s Gate experts initially thought this would be a massacre without resistance, but reality shocked them. The people of the Defying Heaven Alliance burst forth with immense combat power and spirit. Their counterattacks were well-organized, and even those lacking strength could use the formation to execute joint attack techniques for a counterattack.

The careless Heaven’s Gate experts were given a head-on blow, and after leaving behind dozens of corpses, they hurriedly went to report back.

"What? The people of the Defying Heaven Alliance are all gathered together, and there’s also an organized counterattack? How is that possible!" The Heaven’s Gate Leader was astonished upon hearing the report from his subordinates. How long has this Defying Heaven Alliance been organized? Under normal circumstances, they should be nothing but scattered sand. How could they organize an effective counterattack?

"I don’t believe it. How can this ragtag bunch still turn the skies upside down?" the Heaven’s Gate Commander snorted coldly, "Send all the experts. I want them torn to pieces!"

From the moment the battle began, it never stopped. The Heaven’s Gate experts were numerous and powerful, but the Defying Heaven Alliance people were putting everything on the line, unleashing power like never before. For a time, even the Heaven’s Gate experts couldn’t do anything to the people of the Defying Heaven Alliance.

However, despite a period of stalemate, the power of the Defying Heaven Alliance ultimately could not match the vast army of Heaven’s Gate. As one top expert after another was encircled and killed, the resistance of the Defying Heaven Alliance grew weaker.

"Miss Cheng, our defenses have already been breached, and all our warriors are injured. Our combat strength is less than forty percent!" At this time, the representative of the Storm Sect anxiously said, "We have already held out for an entire day, but going forward, we may not be able to hold on for much longer!"

Cheng Minxue gritted her teeth, "Have you contacted Storm Sect Master yet? How much longer will they need to return?"

"At least three days, but..." the rest of the words were unspoken, but Cheng Minxue already understood.

Her expression did not show much anxiety, but rather she sighed, "It seems we won’t survive this ordeal!"

"Yes, the gap in our strength is just too great!" the representative of the Storm Sect said responsibly, "But Miss Cheng, there is no need to blame yourself. None of us will blame you."

Cheng Minxue shook her head and said, "I am not blaming myself; I just don’t want to die here. Tell all the soldiers to hold on for one more day. Our reinforcements are coming. For themselves, for survival, they must endure!"

"One day?" The Storm Sect representative was briefly stunned, then a look of understanding appeared on his face, "Miss Cheng, I understand. I will inform everyone right now."

If everyone knew it would take at least three more days, the hard-won morale might collapse instantly.

Cheng Minxue touched her chest, "If it absolutely comes to that... I will have to use the power of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!"

The Wordless Heavenly Scripture is magical, as its owner, Cheng Minxue knew this well, but she also understood that with her current capability, she could not harness its full power. If she forcibly activated it, Cheng Minxue would likely fall quickly.

Unless absolutely necessary, Cheng Minxue would not use the power of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture.

A single day may seem short, but in the eyes of these besieged individuals, it feels longer than a hundred or even a thousand years. Every moment, they face death and endure endless battles.

As comrades fell one by one at their side, how cruel and painful it was for them.

In the end, the people of the Defying Heaven Alliance did not last a day. After more than half a day’s fighting, besides a few top experts, the rest had almost no combat capability left.

"Cheng Minxue, your people have all lost their fighting power. What will you fight us with now?" The Heaven’s Gate Leader laughed heartily.

Cheng Minxue’s snow-white long hair fluttered in the wind. She looked up at the numerous Heaven’s Gate experts above her and sighed softly, "I didn’t expect that in the end, I would have to use your power. But it doesn’t matter; I have no reason to continue living anyway. If that’s the case, then I will use you all as a sacrifice!"

As she finished speaking, an open book appeared above Cheng Minxue’s head, its pages slowly turning. With each turn, Cheng Minxue’s aura grew stronger.

"Not good, stop her immediately!" Although he didn’t know what divine artifact the book above Cheng Minxue’s head was, the Heaven’s Gate Leader still sensed a foreboding aura.

As a top expert, the Heaven’s Gate Leader had great confidence in his intuition.

Although he immediately made a decision, the attacks from his expert subordinates were still blocked by the light emitted from the book. Even experts at the Later Stage or the Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm could not harm Cheng Minxue in the slightest.

"What on earth is this!" The Heaven’s Gate Leader’s face showed a look of shock, and suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, "This is the Wordless Heavenly Scripture? It must be the Wordless Heavenly Scripture. Only the Wordless Heavenly Scripture would have such magical power!"

"Yes, you guessed right. This is the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!" At this moment, Cheng Minxue said calmly, "You are very fortunate. Now you can witness the power of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, but unfortunately for you, none of you... will escape!"

"Scroll World!" Cheng Minxue shouted, and the Wordless Heavenly Scripture emitted a rustling sound. Then a light enveloped all the Heaven’s Gate experts. They only felt the scene before their eyes shift and found themselves in a strange world.

"Everyone, do not panic, this is just an illusory world!" The Heaven’s Gate Leader immediately calmed the crowd.

In the eyes of the Heaven’s Gate Leader, Cheng Minxue’s move was just an illusion technique intended to stall them so that the remaining people of the Defying Heaven Alliance could seize the opportunity to escape.

"But you are destined to be disappointed; our people have surrounded this place in multiple layers. Even if you trap us, it’s impossible to escape!" A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

However, being able to cast such a large-scale illusion technique and trap so many experts of the Azure Sky Realm, it seems that the Wordless Heavenly Scripture indeed has magical power.

"If I could obtain the Wordless Heavenly Scripture and offer it to the Sect Leader!" The Heaven’s Gate Leader thought to himself, a trace of fervor flashed in his eyes.

"An illusory world?" At this point, they heard Cheng Minxue’s voice echo, "Indeed, this is an illusory world, but it is one that can serve as your tomb of death!"
