Blue River Region, Spirit Sword Mountain.
The siege of the Fallen Immortals had lasted for the tenth day.
Prior to this, no one had imagined that Spirit Sword Mountain could persist for so long. In the face of the joint siege of dozens of Immortals and many Senior Immortals, it was a miracle that a sect in the lower realm could persist for half a day.
And this miracle happened twenty times in the end.
Admittedly, this was more or less due to Senior Immortal Xiaoyao. If he hadn't asked Fengyun and the others to slow down and disperse the power of the Immortals, the mountain protection array of Spirit Sword Mountain would definitely not be able to support the full outbreak of the Immortals.
However, the real miracle creator was Nine Regions, including both this land and the people on it.
In the past ten days, Spirit Sword Mountain had experienced countless life and death situations, and the stubborn cultivators had erupted with amazing cohesion. All the former enmity had been put down, and everyone was united to fight for survival.
On the battlefield, one could see the demon slaying guards fighting side by side with the great devil who had slaughtered thousands of people. One could see the treatment team of Kunlun Immortal Mountain doing their best to treat the rogue cultivators who had betrayed the sect. One could also see that the five super sects had made their own methods public so that others could learn from them.
This was like the Great Unity of the World, which had never been realized even in the fifteen years of Wang Lu's rule of Nine Regions. However, in the past ten days, it had really happened. People could not help but sigh with emotion that it seemed that only when the end of the world came could they see the great sublimation of morality.
However, it seemed that it was too late to sharpen the spear just before the battle. For an Immortal level method like Stellar Sword Method, ten days was not enough to even read it once, let alone learn from it. The tension of the frontline battle made the seriously injured cultivators often unable to leave the battlefield. There was no time for them to meditate and comprehend.
However, at this time, the deepest engraving of the Great Array of Nine Regions was activated by chance. Thus, the continent suddenly seemed to have awakened its own consciousness and began to save itself at all costs.
On the one hand, Nine Regions cut off the connection with the Immortals, so that the Immortals could no longer easily control the providence of Nine Regions. On the other hand, Nine Regions completely abandoned the principle of equivalent exchange and began to bless its own cultivators at all costs. In the past, the Children of Destiny would only appear once every few hundred or even a thousand years, yet they were popping up like bamboo shoots after the rain. The cultivators of Nine Regions found that they could repeatedly make breakthroughs in life and death situations. Not to mention those who were stuck at the peak stage, even many middle-level King Pill cultivators became Yuanying Stage cultivators. There were even some who broke through from the King Pill Realm all the way to the peak of the Soul Formation Realm within three days. Although this realm was superficial and there were many hidden dangers, the speed of their progress was so fast that even Great Ancestor Desheng and Immortal Qin couldn't compare …
With the combination of various factors, Spirit Sword Mountain finally survived to the tenth day under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Immortals.
Then, the situation of the battle finally reached an irreversible state of decay. More than half of the twelve peaks of Spirit Sword Mountain fell. Carefree Peak, Stellar Peak, Sword Tomb … Together, they formed the last line of defense. However, in the end, it was just a deathbed struggle, an arrow at the end of its flight.
The elite forces of the Wanxian League that gathered in the mountain suffered heavy casualties. The new Red Guards were almost completely wiped out. The remaining Dixian people were all killed except for a few. The reinforcements from the Western Continent were trapped in the wreckage of the Clear Sky Peak. Golden King himself was seriously injured and unconscious. Aya's stubborn resistance had also lost the possibility of a breakthrough. The Death to Immortal Sword Array was personally broken twice by Senior Immortal Xiaoyao. Two of the four Immortal Swords were broken, and Supreme Hetu, who presided over the array, was directly knocked down from Mahayana Stage to Yuanying Stage … Even the Nine Regions Map was almost taken away.
The Zaku army of the Red Sea Underwater Workshop was in a slightly better condition. After Golden King was seriously injured, the Nine-Tailed Fox took over the baton. The fox was cunning and astute, and she was once a servant of the Immortal World. She knew herself and the enemy well. She successfully killed three or four Immortals and even wounded Senior Immortal Liefeng, achieving one of the biggest results since the start of the war. However, under the huge gap in strength, the Zaku army was powerless to reverse the situation. More than half of the Zaku army were destroyed, and the main force, Xiang Liang and Qiong Hua, were seriously injured. The Nine-Tailed Fox had to give up the initiative to attack and retreated behind the final line of defense.
At this point, Spirit Sword Mountain no longer had the power to fight. There was only a group of people who were waiting for death, hiding behind the crumbling line of defense and pinning their final hope on the tower.
"Can Wang Lu … Come back or not?"
Five days ago, when the situation of the battle took a turn for the worse, the Stellar Peak lost contact with Wang Lu. No matter how they called, there was no response. The passage opened by the Heavenly Tower was still there, and the passage between the two worlds had not disappeared, but there was no sound from it anymore.
This was simply bad news. Therefore, except for a few people, the news was strictly kept secret from everyone else. However, when everyone was concentrated on the Stellar Peak, the so-called secrecy was just self-deception.

On the other side, the mood of the Immortals was not good either.
They had thought that it would be a one-sided massacre, but in the end, the lowly beings of the Lower Realm had held on for ten days, and they had even launched several sharp counterattacks, causing considerable casualties — more than ten immortals had died in battle, and the rest were injured. Among the Senior Immortals, Liefeng was the most seriously injured. It could be said that he had lost five hundred years of cultivation base. Senior Immortal Fengyun was too fierce. Although he was not physically injured, his Immortal Path's law had been figured out. It could be said that he had suffered a big loss.
Such a result was simply a serious blow to the Immortal World, which was already declining in population. There were not many Immortals alive today, so they really could not afford such a loss. In the final analysis, naturally, no one was willing to admit that the people of Nine Regions were too strong and could already challenge the Immortals. Thus, it could only be attributed to the poor command of the battle.
The first to attack was Senior Immortal Fengyun, the most unruly person among the Senior Immortals. Finally, he could fire at Xiaoyao without any scruples, "I've long said that to deal with these bastards, we should use the power of thunder. They're like a pile of sh * t. The longer we tangle with them, the more dirty our hands are … Why do you want to spread panic and despair to tie people's hands and feet? As a result, it's all our own people who are hurt! That's interesting. We don't need them as captives. What's the use of panic and despair of a group of people who are going to die? Can it make us happy? When we fought in the world, what haven't we seen? Do we still need this kind of porridge and side dishes to spice things up? Did His Majesty the Immortal King say to fight like this? Xiaoyao, what exactly do you want to do? "
Senior Immortal Fengyun's words aroused the same feeling from many people. Others would not be like Fengyun who would recklessly scold him, but they also looked forward to how Xiaoyao would answer.
"What I want to do has nothing to do with you." Senior Immortal Xiaoyao was still calm and collected. There was no trace of wavering on his handsome face. "I'm not obliged to explain to you what I'm doing."
"You!"
Fengyun was furious, but he had no way to refute it. Senior Immortal Xiaoyao was ranked first among the Senior Immortals, a respected figure under only one person in the Immortal World. He was deeply trusted by the Immortal King and was only responsible to the Immortal King. No matter how absurd the things he did, there was no need to explain it to others.
"So, do you have the obligation to explain it to me? Xiaoyao. "
At this moment, the complexion of everyone present changed in an instant. Even Xiaoyao couldn't restrain himself and stood up.
"Immortal King … Your Majesty."
At this time, it was not the Immortal King's body that appeared, but only his voice. However, even if the Immortal King only had his voice, it could not be ignored.
"Xiaoyao, come to see me in the Palace of Three Purities."
Senior Immortal Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the situation here is not completely clear. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to go far …"
"Not completely clear? Those bastards only have their last breath left. What's not clear about the situation? "
"Your Majesty …"
"Humph, I think you want the situation to be more confusing. If it weren't for your wanton behavior, how could it take so much time for this group of bastards to be solved? "
The words of the Immortal King made Senior Immortal Fengyun's eyes lit up. However, no matter how unruly he was, at this time, the Immortal King was talking to Xiaoyao, so he never dared to interrupt halfway.
Senior Immortal Xiaoyao was silent for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I can swear that I have never done anything that harms the interests of the Immortal World. My arrangement in Spirit Sword Mountain is not for my own selfish interest. "
"Of course I know that you're not doing it for your own selfish interest. And although there are many doubtful points in your actions, they are indeed for the great plan of the Immortal World … If not, how could I allow you to live until now? "
Senior Immortal Xiaoyao said, "Your Majesty, please understand."
"So, I'll give you a chance to come to the Palace of Three Purities and explain all this to me."
Senior Immortal Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and hesitated.
Of course, he didn't want to go to the Palace of Three Purities, but how could he disobey the order of the Immortal King? In fact, with Xia Yu's temper, even if you had a reasonable explanation, once you disobeyed his order, it would still be a dead end. So …
Just as Xiaoyao was about to open his mouth to agree to this matter, suddenly, a mechanism placed in a distant place was triggered.
A strange smile appeared on Senior Immortal Xiaoyao's face.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry … I can't comply."
"Very well, then I'll come to you."
The next moment, the sky of Nine Regions was torn apart.
A burly figure, in the distortion of light and shadow, slowly descended on Nine Regions.
The real body of the Immortal King Xia Yu finally arrived!
