The Flying Cloud Sect has declined, and Master Lingxiao is dead.
In this world, the only person Shen Daochen cared about most was his daughter, Shen Sangruo.
At times like this, other elders have their own juniors to speak, but the Flying Cloud Sect has long since fallen apart, so naturally no one cares about him as the sect leader.
Shen Daochen went to the battlefield alone, feeling extremely desolate.
I really don't know what he's been living for most of his life.
Instinct drove him to stand before Shen Sangruo, wanting to say a few words to her.
He would be content if she could just say a word to him, telling him to come back safely.
“Sang Ruo, you…” He hesitated before Shen Sang Ruo, unsure of how to begin.
Shen Sanruo glanced at him, her voice immediately turning cold, "Sect Leader Shen, have you come to the wrong place? The people from the Flying Cloud Sect are not here."
He was speaking gently to Immortal Lord Changli and the others just moments before, but when he got to him, he suddenly became so cold.
Such a stark contrast undoubtedly dealt another heavy blow to Shen Daochen's already distressed heart.
This made him wonder if she had ever truly rekindled her feelings for him.
With the Heavenly Oath and the elders of the Flying Cloud Sect present, Shen Daochen could no longer cause any trouble.
They could only leave in silence and embarrassment, their departing figures seeming even more desolate.
Of course, no one noticed his miserable and lonely state.
"That's about enough. You can retreat now. Qi Chong said you have one day. Try to retreat as far away as possible."
As soon as Gu Ci Zhenjun finished speaking, everyone saw the black mist spreading in the distance, and the evil cultivators emerging from the black mist.
"Didn't you say you'd have one day?" Many people's expressions changed.
"When can we ever believe the words of those evil cultivators?" Immortal Lord Changli gritted his teeth.
The elders turned and went to meet them with resolute steps.
They must stop these heretical practitioners!
Shen Sangruo and the others immediately retreated to evacuate the people nearby and led them to retreat together.
The sounds of spiritual energy colliding gradually faded behind them. No matter how worried they were about the situation on the battlefield, they could not stop.
However, judging from the speed at which the connection between souls was severed, the situation on the battlefield is very bad.
The seniors from the transitional realm lost contact with her several times faster than before, so she could only keep summoning other seniors to fill the gaps.
"Could it be that the black energy has intensified again?" Shi Zhili asked with difficulty.
In the descriptions of Immortal Lord Changli and the others, the black aura they had encountered before was already terrifying enough; if it were to intensify further…
"Oh my god, how are we supposed to deal with that black energy?" Zhu Huaqiao covered her lips with her hand.
A flame ignited in Shen Sangruo's hand, and she pursed her lips tightly.
If the intensity were still the same as before, she might be able to sacrifice herself and find a way to break through to the Fusion Stage.
But with this level of intensity, even if she reaches the Mahayana stage, she probably won't be able to clear away the black energy.
This path was completely blocked, leaving her with absolutely no hope.
Was her flame truly useless?
How exactly can we get rid of that black energy?
With such intensity, even Immortal Lord Changli and the others probably wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
On the battlefield.
Ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivators would have their hands reduced to bones after just a slight contact with the black energy, unable to withstand it at all.
Immortal Lord Changli could only let the Nascent Soul stage cultivators leave first, as those who remained would only be corroded clean by the black energy.
Only the Five Divine Beasts, Immortal Lord Changli, Fairy Qingluan, and those Transcendent Ancestors remained on the battlefield.
"If you can't hold on, then leave with them. We can still hold off those evil cultivators for a while!" Qi Yan shouted to Immortal Lord Changli and Fairy Qingluan.
Previously, the evil cultivators only had a few hundred left, and many more were killed by Qi Chong, so now their numbers are small.
The only difficult ones to deal with were those ten near-divine evil cultivators; the five divine beasts could barely handle one or two of them.
That dark aura is too intractable; they won't be able to hold out for long.
Just as Immortal Lord Changli was about to respond, Qi Chong's attack was faster than he could speak.
"Trying to leave? Not a chance!"
He turned to dodge, but the sharp attack grazed Changli Immortal Lord's cheek, and blood instantly gushed out.
The black energy rushed towards his wound, and with the opening, the corrosive power of the black energy became even more ferocious, reveling within his flesh and blood.
"Don't go, Immortal Lord Changli, shouldn't we settle our scores?" Qi Chong's smile was chilling.
"When did I ever say I was leaving?" Immortal Lord Changli glared coldly at Qi Chong, his aura no less imposing. "If you want to settle accounts, come at me! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
"How dare you, a mere ant at the half-stage of Mahayana, speak to me, who is close to a god, like this?!" What Qi Chong disliked most was Changli Immortal Lord's disdainful attitude towards him.
Ten thousand years ago, Immortal Lord Changli was the number one person in the cultivation world, and had the right to disregard him. But how dare he now?!
Qi Chong sneered, "Today I'll make you face reality. You're no longer the Immortal Lord Changli you once were!"
The next moment, their deadly moves were unleashed, and light flashed continuously where the two clashed.
"Have you forgotten me, Fairy Qingluan?" Fairy Qingluan rode the wind and blocked an attack for Immortal Lord Changli.
Standing before Immortal Lord Changli, her phoenix eyes were sharp, as arrogant as she always was when she appeared.
"I almost forgot about you. I remember you were modified into a demon by those demons and slaughtered your entire clan with your own hands, weren't you?" Qi Chong said mockingly. "What, now you're going to help protect the cultivation world?"
Qingluan Fairy clenched her fists, and killing intent gradually spread in her eyes.
"Stop using your clumsy provocation tactics. Don't you claim to be near-gods? Let this fairy maiden see just how capable you really are!"
The power of the wind transformed into a blade in her hand, and she charged towards Qi Chong with the sword raised.
Immortal Lord Changli slowly raised his arms and summoned the Fire Phoenix.
"Fine, today I'll send you two old lovers to hell together, and don't say I'm breaking you up!"
Amidst the black mist, a chaotic battle raged between the two sides.
The fight between Immortal Lord Changli and Immortal Lady Qingluan and Qi Chong has changed to a fight between Zhu Yuqing and Qi Chong.
The opponents switched sides several times, and the game was fiercely contested.
But there was no way to deal with that evil aura, so they could only fight and retreat.
They only hoped to restrict the actions of these heretical cultivators, giving Shen Sangruo and the others more time to think of solutions.
The evil energy spread rapidly, like darkness constantly devouring the cultivation world, threatening to turn the entire cultivation world into a gloomy place.
Wherever it went, there was only desolation, with everything withered, as if it wanted to devour all life.
When the black energy spreads to every corner of the cultivation world, the cultivation world will lose all vitality and become a desolate wasteland.
As Qi Chong looked at these scenes, a shadow crossed his eyes.
Unfortunately, after the cultivation world fell into a state of stagnation, it was no longer able to generate spiritual energy, so even if they occupied the cultivation world, they could not gain anything.
But if it weren't for the people in the cultivation world forcing him, how could he have used this evil energy to destroy the cultivation world directly?
He intends to destroy the cultivation world and make sure they suffer!
