Chapter 85: The War at the Black Sea Immortal Continent
Within the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, in a dark and quiet laboratory, Jiang Yun stood amidst various tools and remnants of something. He listened to the Samsara Clone report on recent major events before making a decision.
"Send someone to the Black Sea Immortal Continent," Jiang Yun said calmly.
The Samsara Clone bowed and disappeared into the darkness silently.
Jiang Yun smiled to himself, speaking softly, "Since you want to play... I'll join the game." As soon as he spoke, the laboratory darkened once more, with a mysterious and terrifying aura enveloping the surrounding area.
Meanwhile, in the grand and majestic hall of the Immortal Phoenix Empire, Feng Yi sat on the throne with a calm and cold expression. Suddenly, a shadow rushed toward her with great speed, kneeling before her and reporting in a panicked voice.
"Your Majesty! The Holy Immortal Empire has attacked our borders, and our defense forces have been completely annihilated!"
Feng Yi listened quietly, showing no sign of surprise. She merely spoke in a cold tone.
"Send the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th Heavenly Generals to the border and kill them all. Defend our territory at all costs."
"As for the 2nd, 5th, 6th, 13th, and 16th Heavenly Generals, attack the Wind Immortal Continent. And call the 3rd, 4th, 14th, and 15th Heavenly Generals. I will personally lead them to attack the Eternal Immortal Continent," she continued firmly.
Feng Yi paused for a moment before adding, "For the Cloud Immortal Continent, have the 1st Heavenly General and the former emperor guard it closely. Begin implementing the plan."
The shadow bowed deeply and responded firmly, "Understood, Your Majesty!" Then, he disappeared immediately.
At the same time, on the Black Sea Immortal Continent, the battle remained brutal and bloody. The corpses of dragons and humans littered the ground, and the sounds of pain and the clashing of weapons echoed throughout the battlefield. However, the tide began to shift as the Shadow Immortal Emperor Sect started losing many of its people.
The three opposing forces had already planned and agreed to cooperate before the war began. Now, Sa Ying, the leader of the Shadow Immortal Emperor Sect, was facing Chang Tong. She revealed several weaknesses, but no one dared approach her due to her powerful poison. However, Chang Tong managed to hold her back with the power of gold.
Her deadly poison had no effect on Chang Tong, leaving her unable to assist her people. If she did, she would expose herself to a fatal attack from him.
Sa Ying gazed around the battlefield with despair. Her people were being devoured by demonic power, and some were being mercilessly slain by a giant Bone Dragon. The situation for her and the Shadow Sect was dire. If this continued, all of her people would perish, and the Shadow Immortal Emperor Sect would face total annihilation.
Sa Ying knew there was only one option left...
She took out an ancient talisman imbued with the power of her ancestors. Without hesitation, she crushed the talisman with her fingers. Instantly, a powerful explosion echoed across the continent. The dormant ancestral powers were awakened, and they quickly made their way to the Black Sea Immortal Continent.
Mo Ji, Chang Tong, and Long Wei, seeing Sa Ying's actions, chuckled lightly and swiftly retreated, preparing to use teleportation techniques to escape.
"Retreat!" Chang Tong said joyfully.
But before they could initiate their teleportation, a voice echoed, followed by a tremendous aura that engulfed the entire Black Sea Immortal Continent. The pressure was so overwhelming that everyone froze in place.
Long Wei cursed angrily as he turned to look. "Who invited those damned people?"
All eyes turned toward the source of the aura, and what they saw made their hearts tremble. In the distance, an airship hovered in the sky, with a flag fluttering, bearing the words Fallen Heaven Blood Sect.
A brief silence was broken by the soft murmurs of those who sensed the approaching danger. Some turned pale and attempted to flee immediately.
Suddenly, a man with a demonic aura appeared, stepping out of one of the airships. His presence exuded such overwhelming power that those around him could barely breathe.
Mo Ji looked at the man in shock, his voice trembling as he spoke.
"How is this possible... You... How are you still alive...?"
But before he could finish, a lightning-infused fist flew toward him at incredible speed. Mo Ji barely dodged the attack, but a small wound was left on his body.
As Mo Ji prepared to counterattack, he found that his body was unable to move, as if his power had been sealed. Everyone nearby felt the same sensation.
"What...is this?" Mo Ji murmured softly, as panic began to creep into his heart.
At the same time, a massive energy orb surged toward him from behind. Fortunately, Chang Tong used his power to create a giant golden wall to redirect the energy just in time. The orb veered off course, but when it collided with a nearby area, it exploded.
BOOM! The energy orb immediately drained the lives of those nearby, absorbing everything from their lifespan, spiritual power, and even their cultivation—all vanished in an instant.
Ba Zhi, the Lord of the Demon Peak of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, smiled slightly as he witnessed the devastation. However, a bone spear suddenly shot toward him, only to be swallowed by a shroud of darkness before it could reach him.
Suddenly, the surrounding area was illuminated, and everyone looked up at the sky where a blinding light shone, and something seemed to be hurtling down. All eyes turned to the source of the light, which slowly formed into a sharp spear, descending at tremendous speed.
Seeing this, Chang Tong quickly conjured a massive golden wall to block the falling light, but the force of the light was stronger than expected. When it struck the ground, it exploded, killing many in the process.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Explosions echoed across the entire continent, shaking the battlefield. Ba Zhi smiled once more. "So the law of light can do something like this? Isn't it a bit too terrifying?"
Long Wei's voice rang out amidst the chaotic battlefield, filled with corpses. "Can we stop fighting now? I'm starting to get tired," he said with a faint smile, as if bored by the battle.
Chang Tong, too, spoke in a flat tone, "I think the same... Both sides will lose forces, and we gain nothing from this fight. Our battle has become meaningless."
Gong Sunlei, the Lord of the Thunder Peak of the Blood Heaven Peaks, chimed in nonchalantly, "Exactly. I don't enjoy killing either." He smiled.
Long Wei quickly agreed, "Right! I think we should just stop fighting now."
But before they could continue talking, a massive wave of bones and golden ground surged toward Gong Sunlei at high speed. Gong Sunlei smiled, unfazed, and easily dodged the attack. Then, he immediately charged toward Sa Ying.
Sensing the danger, Sa Ying swiftly prepared to defend herself, but as Gong Sunlei neared her, he unexpectedly detonated himself. A bright light flashed, causing everyone to turn and look. Before Sa Ying could be destroyed by the explosion, she was teleported away in an instant, landing in the arms of a man who emerged from the darkness.
The man had a human-like form but with sharp, pointed ears atop his head. His aura was terrifying, causing everyone on the battlefield to freeze. Ba Zhi, the Lord of the Demon Peak, spoke in a serious tone, "This is dangerous... This man might be as strong as the Guardian Elders or maybe even close to the Sect Master."
Sa Ying, who had maintained a cold demeanor until now, spoke with frustration, "Who asked for your help? Let me go! Shen Lang."
Shen Lang smiled faintly before replying, "Shouldn't you be calling me 'husband' instead?"
The battlefield was filled with tension. Gong Sunlei, Ba Zhi, Wang He, and Wang Bai, who had been waiting for an opportunity, launched a surprise attack on Shen Lang. However, what shocked the four of them was that Shen Lang managed to dodge all of their attacks effortlessly. Not only that, but he also countered their attacks simultaneously.
The disciples of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, who were watching from a distance, were stunned to see that the four Peak Lords couldn't land a single hit on Shen Lang.
Meanwhile, Long Wei and Chang Tong saw an opening and attacked immediately, though Mo Ji remained still. Just before the attacks could reach the four of them, an eerie silence fell, and the void opened up, absorbing all the attacks.
Shen Lang frowned and caught a whiff of something unusual. He clenched his fingers, causing his nails to grow longer instantly, and struck directly at the void. Suddenly, a loud impact rang out as a black-clad man was hit by Shen Lang's attack.
That man was none other than the Guardian Elder of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect. The Guardian Elder frowned as he tended to the scratch marks left by Shen Lang's strike and said in a firm tone, "You have quite the sharp senses... or are you hiding something?"
Shen Lang looked at the black-clad man who had just attacked him, his expression still cold, though his eyes were filled with curiosity. He turned to Sa Ying, who was still in his arms, and asked, "Who is he? Why does he seem so dangerous?"
Sa Ying, blushing slightly from being held, responded in a cold tone, "Hmph... That's the Guardian Elder of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect. And how much longer are you going to hold me? Let me go already!" She tried to struggle, but to no avail.
Shen Lang grinned playfully and replied, "Forever..." Just then, he ducked to dodge an incoming attack while still holding Sa Ying tightly. However, the Guardian Elder didn't let up, sending the Void Blade, a wave of ice, and star power to attack from three directions.
Although Shen Lang moved swiftly and dodged the attacks, his arm was severed instantly, with bright red blood spraying out.
Ba Zhi, standing nearby, received a message from the Guardian Elder and immediately shouted, "Everyone! Retreat! We've obtained what we came for!"
The members of the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect all pulled out warp talismans and vanished in an instant. Ba Zhi, Wang He, and Wang Bai also retrieved their airships and left immediately. Long Wei, Mo Ji, and Chang Tong ordered their forces to withdraw as well, and soon, other factions followed suit.
Still in Shen Lang's arms, Sa Ying noticed his severed arm and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
But Shen Lang maintained his faint smile and hugged Sa Ying even tighter, ignoring the blood flowing from his wound.
The Guardian Elder, who had just attacked Shen Lang, laughed and said, "So, you're from the Heavenly Wolf Tribe, huh? What a terrifying gaze you have! Hahaha!"
Yet, while the Guardian Elder continued to laugh, half of his body suddenly vanished. It was a counterattack from Shen Lang. Despite his severe injuries, the Guardian Elder kept laughing until he disappeared into the void.
Shen Lang's once casual demeanor turned cold immediately. Still holding Sa Ying tightly, he spoke softly but with a sense of danger, "Truly terrifying... not a single flaw. If there was one, it must have been because the opponent pretended to leave it open."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "He went as far as to suffer severe injuries just to make me think I had succeeded in attacking him, all while waiting to counterattack when I moved in for the final blow... What a cunning opponent. I really don't want to face him again. But never mind that... let's deal with your problem now." As Shen Lang finished speaking, he glanced toward the three men watching from a distance.
At the Fallen Heaven Blood Sect, Jiang Yun received a report from his Samsara Clone. He listened intently as the system's voice echoed in his mind.
[Such terrifying power, the ability to see the future... and a member of the Heavenly Wolf Tribe. This is totally unfair.]
