Chapter 926: The Situation in Northern Sky
Editor: Henyee Translations
While Jiang Chengxuan and his party were still on their way, the Northern Sky Domain had already become a hell on earth.
Among the nine major domains of the Floodgate Realm, the sects in charge of guarding the Northern Sky Domain were relatively weaker.
Initially, the responsibility for guarding the Northern Sky Domain was given to sects located near this area,
However, there were no particularly strong forces near the Northern Sky Domain.
The region of the Floodgate Realm that borders the Northern Sky Domain is a very cold and barren area,
With a sparse population, which naturally means fewer cultivators in the area.
The only forces that could be considered superpowers in this area were the newly risen Frozen Heavens Doorway and the Extreme Yin Sect.
These two sects, acting as brother sects, jointly held the power over this region.
But when the demon beasts, deepsea nomads, and eldars attacked the Floodgate Realm, these two superpowers were the main defenders.
Besides them, there were only some smaller sects and because of the unique environment of the Northern Sky Domain, cultivators practicing ordinary techniques found it difficult to exert their full power there.
The Northern Sky Domain is extremely cold, filled with icy rules of power, affecting all but those above the Dao Integration Realm.
Unfortunately, the enemy invading the Northern Sky Domain was precisely the deepsea nomads.
Being creatures that live and die in the sea, they are completely familiar with water, ice, and cold.
Thus, in the Northern Sky Domain, the army was like a fish in water, adapting to the extreme environment far better than humans.
So, with these factors combined, warfare in the Northern Sky Domain was extremely difficult.
In the deepsea nomads’ first assault on the Northern Sky Domain, the barrier was breached, though ultimately reclaimed by the cultivators,
However, after years of fierce battles, the deepsea nomads eventually occupied a large territory of the Northern Sky Domain.
At this moment, a large part of the Northern Sky Domain was completely a sea of ice.
On this ice sea, there were human cultivators’ skeletons everywhere, many of which had been gruesomely devoured by the deepsea nomads.
And because the ice and snow never melted, these bodies did not decompose,
After successive bloody battles, they became bloody icebergs on the ice sea, filled with bones.
Some human cultivators were trapped alive inside icebergs by the deepsea nomads’ spells, dying miserably.
Currently, the deepsea nomads were launching their final assault on the cultivators guarding the Northern Sky Domain.
Countless deepsea nomads were driving huge waves and icebergs, clashing with cultivators from the two defending sects.
The war had lasted so long, and although reinforcements often arrived from the rear, the power disparity between the deepsea nomads and humans in the Northern Sky Domain had become very significant after years of brutal fighting.
Nearly every human cultivator was facing off against more than two deepsea nomads, including the leaders of the two defending sects.
Almost every human cultivator was dealing with more than two members of the deepsea nomads, including the Sect Masters of the Frozen Heavens Doorway and the Extreme Yin Sect.
One at the Dao Fusion realm, the other at the Dao Mastery realm, are facing off against two Dao Mastery saints and two Dao Fusion saints.
The Dao Mastery saint is the Sect Master of the Extreme Yin Sect, Supreme Yin, currently manifesting the rules of yin, surrounded by nine ice rings,
These are his heaven-connecting spiritual treasure, the Nine Mystical Ice Rings.
At the Dao Fusion saint is the Sect Master of the Frozen Heavens Doorway, Frozen Heavens, wielding his intrinsic heaven-connecting spiritual treasure, the Ice Dragon Flag, controlling an ice dragon.
At the Dao Fusion level is the Sect Master of the Frozen Heavens Doorway, Frozen Heavens, wielding his innate Sky Piercing Lingbao, the Ice Dragon Banner, controlling an ice dragon, exhaling the breath of extreme ice to contend with the enemies.
Surrounding them are four beings from the deepsea nomads.
One named Saint Fury Wave and another named Saint Stormwave, both Dao Mastery saints.
Both figures are immense, towering tens of meters tall, with scales twisting and turning, and powerful Dharmic powers surging.
Saint Fury Wave holds a bone staff adorned with sharp spears, called the Soul Devouring Bone Staff, also a heaven-connecting spiritual treasure.
Saint Stormwave wields a giant crescent shovel, its movements stirring up waves that reach the sky and rolling tornadoes, also a heaven-connecting spiritual treasure.
They, along with the remaining two Dao Fusion deepsea nomads, have been besieging Supreme Yin and Frozen Heavens for an entire month.
The six have been battling across the Northern Sky Domain, from the barrier to this place, without rest.
And the armies they lead have done the same,
The deepsea nomad army and the human army have fought until bones litter the ground and the blood has dyed the ice sea red, spreading to the shore.
“Human cultivators, this time, let’s see where you can run. All of you will become food for our deepsea nomads!”
High above a thousand meters, Saint Fury Wave’s eyes glow with bloodlust, his fanged mouth showcasing his ferocity.
For them, consuming the flesh and blood of their enemies is a reward for the victors.
“Cackle, cackle, cackle, the Northern Sky Domain will belong to our deepsea nomads from now on, hahaha, and sooner or later, the same will go for the Floodgate Realm! All of you humans, become food for our deepsea nomads!”
Saint Stormwave swings his crescent shovel towards the two, the sharp blade cutting through the void, stirring up gusts of cold wind.
The two deepsea nomad Dao Lords’ main target is Frozen Heavens, who is only at the Dao Fusion realm, making him a soft target on this battlefield.
“Filthy deepsea nomads, our humans will surely exterminate all of you!”
Frozen Heavens, wielding the Ice Dragon Flag, commands the ice dragon to barely fend off the attacks of the two.
This ice dragon, like a spirit within the Ice Dragon flag, has been consecrated by him from the beginning of his Dao journey to now.
But now, his companion is riddled with wounds, its body covered in blood.
Artifact spirits don’t have physical bodies, but some attacks can still harm them.
“Nine Mystical Ice Rings, Nine Extreme Divine Lights!”
Just as Frozen Heavens was about to be injured by Saint Fury Wave and Saint Stormwave, Supreme Yin suddenly shouted.
The nine Nine Mystical Ice Rings beside him burst into divine light, instantly transforming into nine divine moons.
Embodying the profound ice Dao, they intertwined in the void and attacked the enemy.
This move is Supreme Yin’s killer technique, in combination with the nine ice rings, making it very troublesome.
It was with this technique that the two of them have been able to fight their enemies up till now.
However, as the deepsea nomads’ saints became more familiar with his techniques, the effectiveness of this move gradually diminished.
From initially killing several Dao Integration deepsea nomads to now not even being able to touch the scales of the deepsea nomad saints,
They see it with their eyes, feel anxious in their hearts, but are helpless.
They’ve done all they could.
The Extreme Yin Sect and the Frozen Heavens Doorway, in their efforts to defend the barrier, are nearly exhausting their reserves.
Even the two of them might die here today.
All calls for help have been sent out, but with the other nine domains also in dire straits,
Struggling to fend for themselves, how could they come to the rescue of the Northern Sky Domain?
The battle has gradually entered its final phase, with many human cultivators being slain amidst overwhelming enemy forces,
The only ones left are a few Dao Integration Saints still desperately resisting the enemy’s encirclement,
And some disciples from the two sects who have barely managed to band together.
But now, the deepsea nomad Dao Mastery Saints are attacking them again,
And if they fall in this battlefield,
The Northern Sky Domain will be officially lost.
