“They’re coming. I’ll go to meet them!” Inside the defensive array of the Bi Xia Sect, the golden-robed cultivator detected the battle’s fluctuations. He activated the Bixia Treasure Mirror, causing it to emit colorful lights, creating a dazzling display. The activated treasure mirror’s effects were indeed attention-grabbing.
Subsequently, the golden-robed cultivator opened a small gap in the protective array and rushed outside with all his might, intending to assist the Northern Realm cultivators. “Friends, hurry!” he called out to the others.
The cultivator Jin spoke up, and the Azure Mist Mirror emitted a brighter light, creating a path. “Senior Jin, hurry and assist Li Su. He’s dealing with a Nascent Divinity. Leave the other Nascent Soul cultivators to us. Today, we’ll drive these aquatic clans away!” came the voice of the Purple-level Sect Master. Senior Gold had already grasped the situation. In the earlier battle within the formation, the seawater had obscured his view, limiting his sight to the nearby area. Now that he had broken free, he could see the entire battlefield.
He observed over a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators from the northern region relentlessly attacking the Nascent Soul-level aquatic clan members. Remarkably, Li Su had managed to hold back the most formidable Nascent Divinity, the black dragon. The black dragon likely hadn’t anticipated it would be unable to defeat even a Nascent Soul-stage human. Their battle had become incredibly intense. While using various water-based abilities to attack Li Su, the black dragon also tried to close in. Its body was formidable, and few could withstand its claws once it got close. Its claws were formidable, and its dragon clan abilities, similar to spells, were astonishing.
The golden-robed cultivator was astonished by the battle between Li Su and the Nascent Soul Sea Clan cultivator. He couldn’t believe Li Su could hold his own against a Nascent Soul cultivator like this. At the same time, he finally understood how those three Sea Clan Nascent Soul cultivators had ended up flying back and crashing into the Bixia Sect’s protective array. It wasn’t a suicide attack. Li Su’s incredible strength knocked them away.
Li Su can hold his ground against a Nascent Soul! The golden-robed cultivator was in awe. With his swift reaction, the golden-robed cultivator opened the protective array, allowing the Bi Xia Sect disciples to come out. “Bi Luo, all of you come out. Let’s join the battle and force them back!” he called out to his fellow sect members.
Cultivator Jin shouted. Bi Luo didn’t see much in the great formation, but she could sense the tremors of the approaching fierce battle from outside. Upon hearing the voice of the cultivator Jin, she and the other five Nascent Soul cultivators of the Azure Mist Sect flew out. As soon as they emerged, they witnessed the battlefield.
“Is that Li Su? Why is he battling that black dragon? That black dragon has already reached the Nascent Divinity stage!” exclaimed one of the Nascent Soul cultivators when they saw Li Su’s battle with the black dragon. They were all astonished. Not only that one cultivator, but the others were equally amazed.
He must have already reached the Nascent Soul Perfection stage to fight a Nascent Divinity without defeat. The cultivator Jin speculated Li Su’s Nascent Soul level must be terrifying. In his heart, envy couldn’t help but arise.
When he first saw Li Su, he was only at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Several decades passed, and Li Su had risen from being a Nascent Soul first-level novice to the Nascent Soul Perfection stage.Could he have Immortal Spiritual Roots? The cultivator Jin pondered his situation. He was consumed by envy. Over the past few decades, his lifespan dwindled further, leaving him with little time. In the cultivation world, there were many challenges, and time was one of the most crucial.
Even if every cultivator were granted immortality, many still wouldn’t be able to progress. Bottlenecks existed, and no matter how much time they had, they might be unable to break through them. Sometimes, the longer they struggled, the less likely it became because their inner conviction wavered. When their faith was shaken, their determination faded.
At that moment, the fierce battle continued. The Nascent Soul cultivators from the aquatic clans were no longer a match and could only huddle together in a defensive stance. Their only hope was for the black dragon to defeat Li Su, and then the tide of battle would turn.
However, after fighting for so long, Li Su still held his ground against the black dragon’s onslaught. Not only that, but Li Su also appeared relatively composed. The black dragon had to put forth its full effort.
Otherwise, if it underestimated Li Su, it might have already met a slight setback. Who is this human, and why is he so strong? The Nascent Soul cultivators from the aquatic clans, who had been fighting for over a decade, were bewildered. It wasn’t just them. The Nascent Soul cultivators from the northern region were equally astonished. Li Su was truly exceptional.
The Sect Master’s aunt, watching from the sidelines, couldn’t help but be impressed. She didn’t intervene but kept her eyes fixed on Li Su. It was as if she was becoming more satisfied with him the longer she watched, like a mother-in-law approving of her son-in-law. On the other side, Bi Luo’s eyes also became incredibly bright. Perhaps witnessing Li Su’s astounding display had ignited something within her, and her feelings couldn’t be contained.
