They carefully moved through the tunnel. They moved extremely slowly. They did not move slowly because they were afraid of the chaotic streams of energy, but because they were afraid that the tunnel would collapse because of them.
Although the tunnel had become much more stable after so many years, only Receival experts could enter now. Once people beyond that entered, the unstable tunnel would become even more fragile. It would be in danger of collapsing.
The people in the tunnel were all Receival experts. With the tunnel's current toughness, the six of them were already at its limit. As a result, the six of them carefully concealed their presences and hid the energy within them.
"We're getting closer and closer to that beautiful world. I can even vaguely see the entrance to that beautiful world. I hope the rest of the journey will be very smooth and that we won't encounter any obstructions."
"There's also an Origin realm expert in that world. I think there's definitely at least one Origin realm expert guarding the entrance of the tunnel. Once we approach the entrance, there'll definitely be a battle. It'll be impossible for us to pass through smoothly."
"That's right. I don't believe that the cultivators of that world are so stupid. There will definitely be an Origin realm expert guarding the entrance. Once we're discovered, we'll immediately charge out as quickly as we can. Although the tunnel will collapse if we travel as quickly as we can, it won't collapse in a single moment. With our speed, we can definitely reach the entrance before the tunnel collapses. Then, according to the Spiritking's arrangements, Duo Fu will use the secret treasure bestowed by the Spiritking to trap the Returnance expert while Anna will be responsible for guarding the tunnel. The remaining four Receival experts and the three Holy Emperor experts with saint artifacts will be dealt with by the four of us," said one of the elders. They had already gained a clear understanding of the number of peak experts on the Tian Yuan Continent from the battle last time. To the six of them, they did not care about the rest of the peak experts aside from the Returnance expert they feared.
This was because the six of them were the strongest among the several dozen Receival experts from the World of Forsaken Saints.
"There's also a person who uses two swords. We need to pay special attention to him as well. The Spiritking has specially warned us that we need to be careful of him because he has comprehended the same Way as the Spiritking. He's no weaker than us," said the only female among the six of them sternly.
"Hehe, I've heard that there's no origin energy in that beautiful world, yet there's actually a cultivator who walks the same Way as the Spiritking in that environment. This really does surprise Old Man. At the same time, he's rather eager. Old Man doesn't have the right to experience the Way of the Sword of the Spiritking, so the appearance of that person just happens to be enough to satisfy Old Man's curiosity," a skinny old man snickered. His eyes were extremely cold.
"Ku Mu, don't underestimate the person who uses two swords. He's someone the Spiritking has specially warned us about after all. Although he's only at Receival, don't forget that he cultivates the same Way as our great Spiritking. If you underestimate him, you'll end up dead to his sword," said the woman with a cold smile. Her slender figure constantly twisted in the tunnel where the Spatial Force was extremely unstable. All that could be seen was her blurry figure. Her face was obscured, and the others were the same.
The skinny old man called Ku Mu snickered when he heard that. He did not mind at all, "Anna, aren't you overestimating that person too much? Even if he's been specially warned by the Spiritking, he's still only at Receival. Old Man may not be invincible among Receival experts, but it won't be easy for him to kill the Old Man. At the very least, none of you five can defeat the Old Man in a duel."
The six of them were using voice transmissions to converse, so no one outside could hear anything.
They could not sense the flow of time in the tunnel at all. After who knew how long, the exit to the Tian Yuan Continent finally appeared before them.
The six of them could not help but become overjoyed when they saw this. They had already made it this far, yet they had not encountered any obstructions. They were rather surprised by how smooth the journey had been.
"Even if we're discovered at such a close distance, we can erupt with all our strength and charge out of the tunnel before it collapses," Anna secretly rejoiced inside.
At the same time, Jianchen had just finished reviving an Emperor Armament in a secret room a million kilometers away from Mercenary City. Just when he was about to take out another Emperor Armament, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He abruptly raised his head and looked into the distance. His gaze immediately became extremely sharp. Two streaks of light seemed to shoot out from his eyes, striking the wall in front of him. Two finger-sized holes appeared in the specially reinforced wall.
"They're here!" Jianchen's face immediately sank. Cold killing intent filled his eyes, and with a flash, he vanished from the room.
Almost at the same time as Jianchen vanished, the sky above Flame City became violet. With the clear thrum of a sword, a dazzling streak of violet light suddenly appeared before shooting off into the distance with unbelievable speed, vanishing in a single instance. Even the Holy Emperor struggled to catch a glimpse of it.
With the disappearance of the violet light, the purplish sky above Flame City rapidly cleared up. Less than half a second had passed since the violet light had appeared. In such a short amount of time, many of the weaker people in the city failed to sense the change in the surroundings. All they heard was the clear thrum of a sword that reverberated through the surroundings.
However, many people on the streets clearly saw the flash of violet light. It immediately caused a great uproar in the city.
Blazing Flame City's City Lord's Manor. Bi Hai, You Yue, Bi Lian, Ming Dong, Dugu Feng, Xiu Tian Yu, Yun Zheng, Senior An, and a large group of experts walked out from various places. They looked up at the sky with uncertain expressions.
"It's brother. He just left Flame City. Look at how murderous he is. I- has the World of Forsaken Saints come?" Bi Lian murmured. She stared in the direction that Jianchen had disappeared in as worry filled her face.
You Yue also stared in the direction that Jianchen had left in. She clenched her fists tightly as she also became nervous and worried.
Soon after Jianchen's departure, Feng Xiaotian was explaining formations in detail to over a hundred Holy Emperor from the four races in the mountains near the northern sea. Suddenly, his face changed and he came to a halt. He stared in the direction of Mercenary City with shining eyes.
Guihai Yidao and Yang Lie seemed to have sensed something as well. Guihai Yidao immediately stood up and a blade hovered above his head, radiating with a tremendous pressure. His clothes fluttered despite the lack of wind as he growled, "They're here!"
"There's been a change in the tunnel. The experts from the World of Forsaken Saints have come. Everyone, come with me to stop the enemy!" Feng Xiaotian called out. A jade-white horsetail whisk appeared in his hand before tearing through space with Yang Lie and Guihai Yidao.
The Holy Emperor below did not hesitate at all. They all radiated with powerful battle intent as they ripped open Space Gates and hurried to Mercenary City.
