Chapter 490: 490,?Demon Sect Heroic Soul?
 

Above the Demon Sect, Lu Xun floated in mid-air, nestled between the Spiritual Energy Vortex and the dense Sword Fate.

He was completely oblivious to everything happening around him.

He had no idea that his senior brother had awakened at this moment, nor was he aware of his senior brother’s plan to break through death’s barrier using his Sword Fate.

To be precise, what was being borrowed was not the Sword Fate, but the [Sword Fate buff] that Lu Xun released to the surroundings.

For Yan Li, having this extra boost was already enough.

Under normal circumstances, if he wanted to break through, shrug off the death’s barrier and continue advancing, he would need at least another decade.

However, the attribute boost that Lu Xun inherently provided filled this gap perfectly.

Was it merely a coincidence?

Obviously not.

The Great Sacrificial Rite gazed upon the scene unfolding before his eyes, watching the Supreme Lord under the sky who had lost one of his arms, as well as the [The Sword Qi is Near] that could suddenly wield swordsmanship. A sense of foreboding swelled in his heart.

He realized that when he came to the border of the Eastern Region, he seemed to have already found himself in a chess match.

And the one controlling the chess pieces was the white-robed middle-aged man who had just vanished into thin air.

——Sir!

Yes, the Sir had already mapped out everything happening within the Eastern Region.

Before he left for another place, he had already created a layered plan.

Among those plans included this moment, where Lu Xun attracted Sword Fate and Yan Li borrowed the increase provided by the Sword Fate to break his barrier early!

Somewhere in Hidden Mountain, a giant sword’s illusory shadow pierced through the sky and earth suddenly emerged from within the dense mist around Yan Li as boundless pressure rippled around him.

The breakthrough was imminent!

Under the dome of the sky, after being gravely injured, the strength of the Supreme Lord’s avatar diminished greatly.

Although [The Sword Qi is Near] had returned to a state of having no controller, it still equals.

The Grand Sacrificer knew all too well that he was racing against time.

If he could break the Mountain Protection Array of the Demon Sect before Yan Li’s breakthrough, he could annihilate everyone there!

However, if he was still obstructed outside the Demon Sect before Yan Li broke through, then it would likely be his own death!

The Grand Sacrificer didn’t hold back any longer. With his other two avatars, he began bombarding the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.

With every attack, the earth quaked. Yet, this seemingly simplistic formation still stood firm.

In the center of the great array, Shen Yan held a jade tablet in his hand, his complexion not looking all too well.

In reality, the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array seemed strong, but it couldn’t hold on for too much longer.

This brought him an immense amount of pressure.

Right now, the lives of his master, his junior uncle and Elder Gui were all in his hands.

One misstep, and everyone would die!

This was a burden he, as the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, had to bear!

“Boom——!”

A rumble emanated from the outside of the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, spreading waves of ripples in the air.

From the center of the Great Array, Shen Yan was sent flying, blood pouring from his mouth.

And at that very moment, an anomaly occurred again on Demon Sect Burial Mountain.

A dice disappeared into thin air, and when it returned, it had reached a specific location within the Mountain Protection Array.

A broken black flag departed from the Burial Mountain to arrive beside Shen Yan, propping him up and shielding him from the aftershocks coming from outside.

A spear, a ring… all of the Immortal Artifacts on the 699th step of Demon Sect Burial Mountain vanished.

They integrated into the large formation, lending a hand to Shen Yan!

Instruments possess a consciousness of their own. They were aware that the man currently struggling to hold his own and trying to turn the tides was their master’s senior brother.

Since their master was no longer there, they naturally had to help him protect the Demon Sect and their home!

Shen Yan’s expression was dazed, and he muttered to himself: “Junior Brother Gongshu, Little Junior Sister, Brother Liu…”

Looking at these immortal artifacts that were assisting him, he felt as if he had returned to the time when they were all still by his side.

Though a majority of the people from the Demon Sect had already gone to aid others, and only some Outer Sect Disciples, who couldn’t contribute much, remained within the sect. But remember, the Demon Sect still has a whole Hidden Mountain!

The seals on Hidden Mountain were fully opened. Led by these immortal artifacts, all the relics atop Hidden Mountain, under the control of the artifact spirits, soared into the sky!

It was as if those people were still standing behind them.

—The malicious spirits of the foreign race linger on, so do the heroic souls of the Demon Sect!

Shen Yan, this bald dwarf, suddenly burst into laughter.

Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his sleeves fluttered in the wind.

A surging aura spread out from Shen Yan. Holding a jade tablet in his left hand and the Immortal Sword, Tianjingsha, in his right, he managed to resist repeated attacks from the Great Priest and the two clones of the Supreme Lord, through the powers of numerous magical weapons.

…

…

Outside the great array, the Great Priest was becoming more and more anxious.

He was racing against time.

“There’s no room to hold back anymore.” The Great Priest thought to himself.

He prepared to use his final trump card—Summoning Deities!

This move had been used by the Second Priest before, but it was broken in one sword stroke by Gu Xiaoman, who borrowed Mister’s sword!

Each of the three priests has a chance to summon deities. The Second Priest had used his, the Junior Priest hadn’t, and the Great Priest was now preparing to try it out.

“I humbly invite our supreme deity!” The Great Priest shouted loudly, a drop of his black blood igniting instantly.

Yet, he received no response at all!

“Impossible! How could it fail!” The Great Priest was horribly dismayed.

Since his blood had ignited, it meant that the deity had received his request.

But, why did the deity not respond!

“Why!!!” The Great Priest’s eyes widened in shock.

“Mister, could it be because of Mister again!! What did he do!!!” The Great Priest could only think of this possibility.

He swung his fist forward in fury, destroying a lot of magical weapons with his fist’s strength, but a new batch of magical weapons was ready to take their place, stepping up one after another.

“Items left behind by a bunch of dead men dare to obstruct my way!” The Great Priest roared, immediately activating the divinity within the three clones of the Supreme Lord.

It didn’t matter that the deity summoning failed. Divinity was a power bestowed by the deity to the Supreme Lord, which he could activate directly.

In an instant, the divinity was activated, and the power of the two clones increased greatly, with their level being instantly raised to 95!

“Boom——!”

A rumble spread out, and a crack appeared on the die, while the broken black flag also developed some cracks.

“Today, I’m going to destroy the Demon Sect and these magical artifacts!” The Great Priest shouted loudly, clapped his hands together, and forcibly tore a small gap in the protective array of the Demon Sect’s mountain.

Just as he was about to rush into it, he was met with a sword qi that was domineering to the extreme!

Under this sword strike, the surrounding sea of clouds instantly surged and attacked with the sword qi, resembling an avalanche visually.

The surrounding vortex of spiritual energy was drained in an instant, and a figure dressed in a black robe, holding a sword sheath, appeared at the gap, swinging a sword at the Great Priest.

And the name of this sword is, One Sword!

Just now, Lu Xun finished leveling up and opened his eyes.

This was Lu Xun in the Eighth Realm, and this was the One Sword of the Eighth Realm!

“Get lost!!!”

The sound was like a thunderbolt, exploding beside people’s ears.

The dazzling and domineering sword light extended forward, directly blasting the Great Priest out.
