Chapter 214: Chapter 156: Evil Demons of the Myriad Realms, The Space Channel Reappears_2

In addition, the Unity Realm Stage Qi Cultivators nearby, as well as those reinforcements that hurried over, made this battle extremely difficult.
In the blink of an eye, the starry sky was ignited by a crossbow bolt, the battlefield unfolded in an instant, and the great battle commenced. Whether it was Ji Yuyan or Yi Changquan, they both very tacitly opened up new fronts in the fight.
Geng Yiyang activated the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture and performed the Fire God Transformation, his gaunt body suddenly swelling, radiating a burst of intense vitality.
But with each moment he used the Fire God Transformation, he was burning his life's vitality, his Life Origin.
The power sent by the Myriad Realm Sect was clearly several times stronger than theirs. There were no less than five opponents capable of matching those in the Immortal Tribulation Realm.
Facing such a vast disparity, all he could do was to strenuously control the Immortal Flame, wandering in all directions, using it to deter those foreign enemies surpassing the Tongxuan Secret Realm level.
The gap between his realm and the level of the Immortal Flame was too great. If he were to unleash its full power, it would surely spiral out of control, leading to a situation where the final outcome was damaging the enemy by a thousand and self-harming by twelve hundred.
The only good news was that no being who had stepped into the Eighth Order had appeared on the Myriad Realms' side; otherwise, this battle would not have an ounce of suspense and the outcome would emerge in the snap of a finger.
A portion of Immortal Path Cultivators did not join the battle but instead retreated to one side of the spatial channel, setting up an array. While sealing the channel, they also constructed a safe haven for rest and recuperation.
Their role was to be the backup. In an emergency, they would replace some of the warriors to heal their injuries. Rushing forward all at once without leaving a way out would lead to self-destruction.
In this battle, their primary goal was not to kill the enemy but to defend the entrance of the spatial channel, holding on until the Immortal Alliance could come to their aid.
Once the Immortal Alliance freed up forces, the problem would naturally be solved effortlessly.
As time moved on, the situation quickly fell into a deadlock, both sides experiencing casualties, but the casualties of the Immortal Path Cultivators were notably heavier.
They had been in the Cangyun Realm for a long time and had little understanding of the Myriad Realms. To prepare for the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects, they had almost devoted all their attention to studying the cultivation methods of the other powers.
Inexhaustible puppets, the unpredictable Yin Yang Divine Power, the Confucian Daoist Monks who spewed killing swords, and the Hundred Changes Mechanism Technique all far exceeded their cognitive scope.
Even the Qi Cultivators who seemed incredibly similar to them displayed endless Divine Skills. Enjoy new adventures at M-V-L
Had it not been for several Great Saints leading their respective Taixuan Pseudo-Immortals from their Holy Lands fighting strenuously, along with Geng Yiyang's sweeps with the Immortal Flame, the state of the battle would have quickly become one-sided.
Several Tongxuan Pseudo-Immortals did not participate in the battle but were specifically guarding Geng Yiyang. Control of those few Immortal Flames was in Geng Yiyang's hands; anyone could die, but his safety was absolutely paramount.
Shang Zuling mingled among the Divine Infant Cultivators, her expression utterly calm. Her palm carried the robust Spiritual Light, her movements were forceful and heavy, like a tiger among sheep. With a casual strike, she blew up a Heretic Cultivator.
Even without Life-bound Magic Treasures for protection, the Heretic Cultivators that approached her rarely had a chance to stand as her equal in combat.
She was unlike any Immortal Path Cultivator; her physical body was terrifyingly strong. Ordinary Fourth Order beings simply couldn't withstand her seemingly effortless palm.
With a complete mastery of the Immortal King's Secret Technique and the robust foundation established since her youth, Shang Zuling's combat power was incomparable to ordinary Divine Infant Cultivators.
Ji Yuyan was enmeshed in a combined assault by three mighty beings. Blood, tinged with Immortal Light, kept falling, and he faced grave dangers at every turn.
His mind was tightly wound, as he secretly relayed the coordinates of this place back to the Immortal Alliance.
The one thing that had surprised him in this battle was that the other end of this space channel was within the starry sky, not within a world.
Since the start of the battle, Ji Yuyan had flipped through all the star charts in his mind, but without any results.
This expanse of starry sky was unfamiliar, eerily silent, devoid of any signs of life, clearly a battlefield specifically prepared by the Myriad Realms for this fight, not recorded within the Immortal Alliance.
"Is this all the power within your Cangyun Realm?"
In the midst of battle, Yi Changquan suddenly spoke.
Ji Yuyan didn't respond and remained focused on the enemy. The one he found most troublesome was the Qi Cultivator who had stepped into the Unity Realm Stage; their Divine Skills were numerous and unpredictable. Had it not been for the effects of the Prohibition Army Order on his Life-bound Magic Treasure, this battle might have already ended.
"Since the spatial channel could be directly opened to Cangyun, it proves that the boundary wall of the Cangyun Realm has become extremely fragile and that a new extraterritorial passage could be accessed at any time. Aren't you afraid of upheaval in Cangyun since all your forces have emerged?"
At these words, Ji Yuyan's breath hitched, and his immortal power wavered for a moment.
This was also his concern. The opening of this space channel was indeed mysterious, with no advance warning.
Now, Zhao Tingxian was overseeing the Heavenly Dao in the Cangyun Realm. If any being tried to open a spatial channel, he should have been the first to know.

Moreover, the speed at which this space passage formed was frankly a bit too exaggerated, not even two months had passed.
Such a space passage that spans countless light-years to forge requires not only spatial coordinates, but also a period of time to stabilize the passage barriers. Considering the sturdiness of this space passage, it usually requires several years to be fully operational.
In a moment of distraction, Ji Yuyan made a slip in his attack and was caught off guard by the Qi Cultivator, who delivered a fierce and unparalleled palm strike that hammered his chest with force.
Crackâ
Immortal blood scattered into the void, and Ji Yuyan's chest was nearly torn completely open. His wildly beating heart was enveloped in Immortal Light, exposed for all to see.
This strike nearly crippled Ji Yuyan, who was already injured.
Without any hesitation, he withdrew from the fray and retreated to the front of the space passage.
Seeing this, Geng Yiyang immediately urged the Immortal Flame, blocking the pursuing Yi Changquan and others.
With several more people joining in, Geng Yiyang was undoubtedly under increased pressure, but he dared not slacken in the slightest and pushed his potential even further.
Immortal flame alternated, condensing into rings, effectively holding off Yi Changquan and the others outside the battlefield, buying Ji Yuyan a moment to catch his breath.
In the distance, the figures blocked by the Immortal Flame were not in a hurry. The Qi Cultivator effortlessly summoned two meteors, activated his Divine Skills, and directly extracted their essence to nourish himself, beginning to restore his depleted Qi.
"Hmm..."
Ji Yuyan's breathing was heavy; he swallowed two Immortal Pills in a bid to heal his wounds as quickly as possible.
He saw Geng Yiyang was stretched to his limits, so he infused a stream of immortal power into him.
But this was undoubtedly a desperate short-term solution that did nothing to help the current state of the battle.
They had been driven into a corner not long after the fight began.
...
...
Cangyun Realm, Southern Region.
Since the space passage had opened, several days had passed in the blink of an eye.
After returning to Taixuan Holy Land, Chu Zheng began another period of secluded cultivation.
No matter the situation on the battlefield outside the realm, he needed to rapidly accumulate strength and not waste the precious little time he had left.
His Divine Soul's cultivation was steadily growing. This time, the focus of his seclusion was to strengthen his physique.
Compared to ordinary Immortal Path Cultivators, his physique could already be described as formidable, but it still couldn't keep up with the pace of his Divine Soul's advancement.
However, barely two days into his seclusion, an urgent message from Fu Quanliang jolted him out of his cultivation.
After reading the content of the message, Chu Zheng immediately ended his seclusion and sought out Fu Quanliang:
"Another space passage has appeared?!"
His first thought was of Giant Marsh, but Fu Quanliang's following words overturned his guess.
"This space passage is not from Giant Marsh but is near the Rift Valley Sea in the Eastern Territory. It's the Eastern Territory Song Clan who sent the news; they are migrating en masse to the Southern Region. During their relocation, they discovered that space passage."
"Is the space passage open?" Chu Zheng pressed.
"Not quite sure, those from the Song Clan hold cultivation only up to the Soul Condensing Realm, not daring to get too close."
"I'll go take a look, be careful yourself."
Chu Zheng left him with a word of caution and immediately set off at high speed towards the Rift Valley Sea.
In the entire Cangyun Realm, his Lihuo Spear and the Minor Five Elements Sword Formation were undoubtedly the strongest forces. He had to clarify the situation, no matter what.
