The cultivators were excited. The Netherworld Race had come from the other side. The battle had lasted for a short time. They had won!
"We won! We won! This is our victory! "
A few cultivators were trembling, finding it hard to control themselves from excitement.
Lin Tian's eyes were filled with a faint light. The battle was over. The Netherworld Race's passage to this side was sealed, and all the Netherworld cultivators who had entered this side were killed.
The eyes of the Patriarchs of the major sects also flickered with divine light. Then, many of them turned their heads and looked at Lin Tian.
"Celestial Emperor, this time, it's all thanks to you!"
Patriarch Purple Scorpion looked at Lin Tian and said seriously.
"That's right!"
"If the Celestial Emperor hadn't informed us a year in advance that the Netherworld Race would be coming, if the Celestial Emperor hadn't led the nine Celestial Venerables of the Netherworld Race away and sealed the spatial passage with the strange stone, and if the millions of soldiers of the Immortal Court hadn't killed the enemies from the first heaven to the ninth heaven, we wouldn't have won this battle."
"Yes!"
The other Patriarchs of the major sects echoed.
The Patriarchs of the major sects all had solemn expressions. Many of them bowed to Lin Tian.
"On behalf of this territory and our respective inheritances, we thank the Celestial Emperor and the Immortal Court."
The Patriarchs of the major sects said.
The Patriarchs of the major sects stood together and expressed their gratitude because this time, they had indeed relied on Lin Tian.
"Everyone, please don't be like this. Please stand up straight. We were able to win this battle because of everyone's joint efforts, not because of one person and one sect." Lin Tian stopped the Patriarchs from bowing. Then, his eyes dimmed. "Besides, we have other things to do now …"
As he spoke, he looked at the battlefield. There were bloody corpses on the ground. Most of them were the corpses of the Netherworld Race, but there were also the corpses of the experts of the major sects and the Immortal Court's soldiers.
Now that the battle with the Netherworld Race was over, their first priority was to retrieve the corpses of the Immortal Court's soldiers and the cultivators of the major sects. They would bring them back to bury them.
The ancestors glanced at the battlefield and saw the corpses. They clearly knew what Lin Tian was thinking and understood Lin Tian's intention. Their expressions became slightly dejected.
"Let's do it, everyone. Find the corpses of our disciples who died in battle and bring them back to their respective sects for burial."
Lin Tiandao.
"As it should be!"
Old Ancestor Purple Tou sighed.
Immediately, the experts of the major sects began to search for the corpses of their sects on the battlefield. Lin Tian, Bai Ziqi, and the others followed the generals of the Immortal Court and personally searched for the corpses of the generals of the Immortal Court. As for the corpses of the Netherworld Race cultivators, the group of powerhouses used the same method. They directly crushed them into dust.
Very soon, the crimson plain was cleared. There were no more corpses on the ground, only blood staining the ground red. The ground had sunk by more than a hundred feet, and there were potholes everywhere. There were remnants of Divine Power fluctuations everywhere.
"I'm afraid that not even a blade of grass will grow in this place for ten thousand years."
Wuxing Crocodile said.
Lin Tian nodded. The battle here was too intense. The vitality in the ground had been completely crushed, and there were remnants of various Dao Laws of Slaughter. Saying that not even a blade of grass would grow in the next ten thousand years was already a very conservative judgment.
"Everyone, let's part ways here for now. We'll return to our sects and bury our disciples who died in battle."
Lin Tian said to Old Ancestor Purple Tou and the others.
Old Ancestor Purple Tou and the others nodded one after another. After exchanging a few words with each other, they led their disciples and left.
"I'll return to the Demon King Palace. Ai Ai will follow me this time. After that, we'll return to the Ethereal Mountain. If you have time, come to the Ethereal Mountain to play. "
Violet Fairy said to Lin Tiandao.
"Alright." Lin Tian said, "The same goes for you and Ai Ai. No one can disturb Wu Yi's seclusion. If you have time, come to the Immortal Court to play."
Violet Fairy nodded. After Ai Ai waved goodbye to Lin Tian, Lin Xi, and the others, the void in front of him split open. He took Ai Ai and the other powerhouses of the Demon King Palace and directly disappeared from the battlefield. Obviously, they had returned to the Demon King Palace in the Eastern Region.
Lin Tian watched Violet Fairy and Ai Ai leave, then looked at the dozen or so Immortal Court Quasi-emperors and said, "Lead the other Immortal Generals to the first to ninth heavens and find the corpses of the other disciples of the Immortal Court who died in battle."
"Yes!"
The dozen or so Immortal Court Quasi-emperors responded. They each led a team of Immortal Court Immortal Generals and rushed to the first to ninth heavens.
In the blink of an eye, only Lin Tian, Bai Ziqi, Bai Qiu, Lin Xi, and the other core members of the Immortal Court were left in this place. The other ordinary disciples of the Immortal Court followed the dozen or so Immortal Court Quasi-emperors to find the corpses of the Immortal Court Generals who died in the battle outside. They all wanted to complete this task in the shortest time possible.
"Let's return to the Immortal Court."
Lin Tiandao.
Golden divine light intertwined outside his body, and the void split open silently. He led the crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
For a time, there was not a single figure in the vast red earth plain, only blood flowing everywhere.
… …
Lin Tian led Lin Xi and the others back to the Immortal Court. Then, in the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Three days had passed. The corpses of the Immortal soldiers and Immortal generals who died in the battle outside were all found and buried in wooden coffins in the depths of the Immortal Court's disciples' graveyard. For those who couldn't preserve their corpses, they could only leave their clothes in the wooden coffins and set up a cenotaph in the depths of the Immortal Court's disciples' graveyard.
In the entire Immortal Court, even though Lin Tian had passed down extraordinary joint attack techniques and powerful Emperor-level divine abilities, there were still more than 17900 people who died in the battle against the Netherworld Race.
"This is war. No matter which era it is, war is the cruelest."
Lin Tian sighed.
War foretold death, and the number of deaths was huge!
"No one will have any complaints if they die to protect the people and this territory. They died a worthy death."
Behind him, an Immortal Court Quasi-emperor said in a deep voice.
This place was very spacious and filled with green mountains. Within the Immortal Court's main clan, a group of disciples had gathered here to pay respects to the dead generals. Everyone looked solemn.
The densely packed disciples of the Immortal Court stood in this place for a full two hours before dispersing one by one.
Lin Tian, Lin Xi, Ji Yu, Xue Ye, and the others were the last to leave. They gathered together in a spacious palace of the Immortal Court.
"The biggest contributor to our swift victory this time is Ya 'er. This time, it's all thanks to Ya 'er. "
Lin Tian looked at Yan Ya 'er and said.
He was telling the truth. If Yan Ya 'er hadn't deduced that the Netherworld Race would kill their way here, allowing them to grasp the immortal opportunity of the battle and make all kinds of preparations within a year, they would have most likely lost this battle.
The Five Elements Crocodile nodded in agreement and said, "Although this battle was won because you killed the nine Celestial Lords of the Netherworld Clan and blocked the space tunnel, which made the scales of victory completely tilt in our favor, in the end, it was still mainly because of Yan Lv. If not for Yan Nuwa's divination, the outcome would have been very bad. "
"Indeed."
Bai Ziqi also nodded.
"Sister Ya 'er is really amazing!"
Lin Xi hugged Yan Ya 'er's arm and said.
"To be honest, it was indeed because of Ya 'er this time."
"That's right."
"That's right."
Ji Yu, Bai Qiu, and Sushu said.
This made Yan Ya 'er a little embarrassed. "Don't be like this, I just deduced the process."
"But, this process directly led to the direction of this battle."
Lin Tiandao.
"It's like this, Ya 'er, don't be modest."
Xue Ye said.
Over the past few years, Xue Ye and the others had often cultivated with Yan Ya 'er and were already very close.
The group gathered in this place for a long time and chatted about many things. It was not until an entire day had passed that they dispersed.
After that, Lin Tian accompanied Lin Xi and Ji Yu alone for half a month before entering the Immortal Emperor Pagoda to cultivate.
The Netherworld Race had attacked, and the current battle had ended with a great victory. However, the Netherworld Race was not dead yet. There were still five Celestial Venerables, and one of them was a terrifying existence at the end of the Celestial Venerable Realm. They were still a huge threat. Perhaps, not long after, this race would find a new path and attack this place from the Sealed Dust Ancient Region. Therefore, in order to deal with all kinds of situations that might happen in the future, he had to quickly increase his strength and enter the Celestial Venerable Realm as soon as possible.
He came to the Immortal Emperor Pagoda and sat down cross-legged. He activated the Heart Sutra of Sun, and specks of golden divine light intertwined.
Soon, his essence, qi, and spirit reached their peak.
It was also at this time that his thoughts moved slightly, and he took out a corpse from the stone ring.
This corpse was very tall, more than ten feet tall. It had a strong physique, and its muscles were like dragons. It was the Netherworld Heavenly Venerable that he had killed at the sinkhole. At that time, he had preserved the Netherworld Heavenly Venerable's body, and now he took it out. He was prepared to use the Saint Refinement Treasured Art to forcefully strengthen his body and increase his cultivation.
After he took out the corpse, his glabella shone, and a wisp of his soul essence entered the corpse, temporarily controlling it. Then, using this wisp of soul essence, he activated the Saint Refinement Treasured Art within the corpse. In the blink of an eye, strands of Saint Refinement runes intertwined, forming a Saint Refinement Dao Diagram that was about ten feet long.
As the Saint Refinement Dao Diagram intertwined, Lin Tian entered the soul essence within the Celestial Venerable's corpse, and activated the Saint Refinement Treasured Art even faster. He activated the Saint Refinement Dao Diagram, and the life energy within the Celestial Venerable's flesh and blood was sacrificed to his main body, pouring into every corner of his body.
Weng!
In the blink of an eye, a rich light enveloped him. It was the purest life energy, quickly nourishing his flesh and blood.
This Netherworld Heavenly Venerable's cultivation had fallen to the first level of the Celestial Venerable Realm before he died, but the life energy within his corpse's flesh and blood had not weakened by much. At this moment, he used the Saint Refinement Treasured Art to sacrifice this life energy to himself. At the same time, he also activated the Saint Refinement Treasured Art in his main body, constantly refining and absorbing this powerful life energy.
For a time, the divine light outside his body became even denser, and his essence, qi, and spirit rose rapidly. His cultivation also soared.
