Sword-light streaked across the sky, sweeping in all directions. Every strike contained extreme power and was unparalleled.
Chen Zong continuously used the Single Hearted Sword Technique. He and his sword fought in all directions, forcing the Gods and Demons to retreat. He was invincible.
Without a Divine Master, the Spiritual Gods and Demons could not do anything to Chen Zong. At most, they were evenly matched with Chen Zong who did not use the Sea Suppressing Pearl. However, if Chen Zong used the Sea Suppressing Pearl to release the Sea Suppressing Domain, the Spiritual Gods would not be a match for Chen Zong. They would be suppressed or even killed.
He killed, absorbed, and stored the Divine Master because the Innerverse was still refining the Divine Master's Divine Master.
The Lifeless Sword Master kept attacking, using the Lifeless Sword Valley's Sword Technique of No Return to its peak. This was an extreme sword technique, one that was purely for killing. This sword technique was very fierce to others, and it was also very fierce to the user. It would not return to its scabbard without seeing blood. If it was forcefully returned to its scabbard, it would have to see one's own blood. Otherwise, the sword technique would be impure, and the way of the sword would be affected.
If the way of the sword was impure and impure, it would be like a rusted sword that would eventually become scrap metal.
Xuanyuan Divine Ancestor fought one against two, using all his strength. He did not hope to injure or kill the two Divine Masters. He only needed to hold them back so that they could not reinforce the Divine Master of Space.
This battle had started when the Gods and Demons crossed over, and there was finally a clear turn for the better. The cultivators began to gain the upper hand, and they were no longer struggling and suffering heavy casualties like before.
Based on the current situation, if the Gods and Demons did not send any more Divine Masters as reinforcements, then the cultivators would win this battle.
There were many Divine Master level experts in the Divinity and Demon World. However, the invasion this time was not the entire Divinity and Demon World. Only a portion of the Divinity and Demon World's Divine Lineage had invaded. It could not even be considered a complete Divine Lineage. In addition, some experts had to be left behind to deal with the experts from other Divine Lineages. They could not mobilize all their forces.
Otherwise, the cultivators' defensive line would have been destroyed long ago, and not a single one would have escaped.
On top of that, when gods and demons first arrived in the Ancient Mystic World, they would more or less be suppressed by the Great Dao of the Ancient Mystic World, causing them to be unable to unleash their full strength. This small difference in strength would directly reduce their strength, making it impossible for them to truly suppress cultivators.
. In addition to Chen Zong and the Ancient Sword Master's arrival, the Gods and Demons were retreating in this battle.
Now, the Fiendgod side had already lost two Divine Masters and a group of Spiritual Gods and Righteous Gods. Their losses could be said to be heavy.
"Lifeless!" The Lifeless Sword Master continued to unleash the Sword of No Return. Streaks of life-reaping sword light streaked across the sky, covering the heavens as they attacked the Divine Lord of Time and Space. However, the Divine Lord of Time and Space performed a Space-Time Handprint with one hand, creating space-time vortexes that continuously devoured the attacks of the Sword of No Return.
In the end, the Lifeless Sword Master paused. His longsword pointed to the sky, and his eyes shone with an unparalleled radiance. His vigorous vitality fluctuated like a tsunami. That vitality transformed into a deathly stillness in an instant. It was a deathly stillness that robbed all life.
Secret Sword, Lifeless!
After being modified by the Lifeless Sword Master, the consumption of lifespan was reduced from 1,000 years to 500 years. The impact on one's potential was also reduced. Not only was its power not weakened, but it was even stronger.
Furthermore, the Lifeless Secret Sword was no longer restricted by 1,000 years of lifespan. The lower limit was 500 years, while the upper limit was 3,000 years.
What did this mean?
It meant that the power of the Lifeless Secret Sword had increased exponentially.
For example, if you consumed 1,000 years of lifespan to use the Lifeless Secret Sword three times in a row, there was a huge difference between using 3,000 years of lifespan to use the Lifeless Sword.
It was like three stones weighing a hundred kilograms and one stone weighing three hundred kilograms. If one was hit by the stone weighing a hundred kilograms, even if they were hit consecutively, they might be injured. However, if they were hit by the stone weighing three hundred kilograms directly, they would die instantly.
In order to succeed in one strike, the Lifeless Sword Master had used up 3,000 years of lifespan.
Even for a Divine Ancestor, losing 3,000 years of lifespan in an instant wasn't a small matter. The hair on the Lifeless Sword Master's temples turned white in an instant, and it gradually spread. A look of unconcealable exhaustion flashed across his eyes.
The Lifeless Secret Sword of 3,000 years of lifespan. When this sword slashed out, the sun and moon filled the sky.
The sword light was incomparably pale, and the aura of death was extremely dense. It charged directly at the Lord of Space and Time, cutting through the sky.
The Lord of Space and Time struck out again. A space-time handprint spun like a shield, blocking the Lifeless Secret Sword. As it spun, it slowly eroded and devoured the terrifying power of the Lifeless Secret Sword, destroying it.
However, the Lifeless Secret Sword of 3,000 years of lifespan was extremely powerful, and it posed a great threat to the Lord of Space and Time. The space-time handprint whirlpool was instantly destroyed, and the sword slashed through the air, striking the space-time distortion force field around the Lord of Space and Time.
The defensive power of this force field was extremely shocking. Previously, only the Ancient Sword Master's Eternal Secular Sword had been able to break it. But now, under the Lifeless Sword Master's 3,000 years of lifespan, the Lifeless Secret Sword of 3,000 years of lifespan, layer by layer, was instantly broken through. The Lord of Space had no choice but to use his own strength to strengthen the space-time distortion force field. In this way, the power to suppress the Ancient Sword Master's return was somewhat insufficient.
The sword might erupted, and the Ancient Sword Master seemed to sense the change in the Lord of Space and Time. He immediately increased his strength, wanting to break through the realm and return. This was the Lifeless Sword Master's goal.
What should he choose?
The Lord of Space and Time was strong, but he was not strong enough to suppress the Ancient Sword Master and the Lifeless Sword Master by himself. This was especially so after the Lifeless Sword Master had used the Lifeless Secret Sword of 3,000 years of lifespan without regard for his own injuries. It was extremely terrifying.
Of course, if this were the God and Demon World, he would probably be able to do it. Unfortunately, this was the Ancient Mystic World. The difference in strength was very, very large.
Making a prompt decision, the Lord of Space and Time immediately gave up on suppressing the Ancient Sword Master and used all his strength to destroy the deathly pale sword light of the Lifeless Secret Sword. Then, he exploded, and the space-time distortion force field around him spun violently. The Lord of Space and Time rapidly shrank to a point and then disappeared.
Space-Time Travel!
The Lord of Space and Time had directly used Space-Time Travel to escape. No one knew where he had gone.
At the same time, the two God Lords that had been held back by Divine Ancestor Xuanyuan also exploded with power, charging toward the Gate of Gods and Demons. They were extremely decisive, and Divine Ancestor Xuanyuan's goal was to prevent them from assisting the Lord of Space. Thus, when the two God Lords fled toward the Gate of Gods and Demons, Divine Ancestor Xuanyuan did not have time to stop them.
Retreat!
The two injured God Lords fled into the Gate of Gods and Demons. No one pursued them, nor could they pursue them. Otherwise, they would enter the God and Demon World and be suppressed and then killed.
The remaining God and Demon powerhouses were unable to escape. Most of them died to Chen Zong's sword.
There was a boom, as if the heavens and earth were being torn apart. A hole dozens of meters wide appeared in the sky, constantly spewing out an astonishing aura. This aura was filled with destruction, a destruction that could destroy everything. Then, a shocking Sword Might erupted like an ancient volcano as a figure broke through the barrier.
The Ancient Sword Master had returned.
However, the Ancient Sword Master's hair was disheveled, and his sword robe was tattered. His body was covered in wounds, and his aura was in disarray. Even so, the Sword Will seemed to be even more tyrannical and astonishing. His eyes flashed with an ancient cold light, but he could not find his target.
The Lord of Space and Time had fled.
But where had the Lord of Space and Time gone?
Had he returned to the God and Demon World?
It seemed that he had not. At least, according to the Lifeless Sword Master's senses, the Lord of Space and Time had not returned to the God and Demon World. Instead, he had remained in the Ancient Mystic World. This was definitely not good news.
A Lord of Space, especially a top Lord of Space and Time, had remained in the Ancient Mystic World. His whereabouts were unknown, and he had hidden himself temporarily. This was extremely frightening.
Moreover, against an ordinary Divine Ancestor, his strength would completely suppress them. He would be able to end a battle in a short period of time.
Disregarding everything else, just the Spacetime Banishment Divine Technique alone was enough to send anyone below the Ancient Sword Master's level of strength into the Ancient Mystic World. They would not be able to resist it at all. They would be directly banished from this world, and it would be difficult for them to return.
The Lord of Space and Time, who had such unfathomable means, remained in the Ancient Mystic World. This was a great disadvantage and threat.
The Ancient Sword Master, Lifeless Sword Master, Divine Ancestor Xuanyuan, and the others all looked grave. Even if the Ancient Sword Master had the strength to contend with the Lord of Space and Time, it was useless if they could not find him.
The Ancient Mystic World was huge.
The Lord of Space and Time also had the ability to travel through space. If he wanted to leave, the Ancient Sword Master would not be able to do anything to him.
This was a big problem. The good news was that the Gods and Demons had suffered heavy losses this time. Dozens of Righteous Gods and Spiritual Gods had died, as well as two Divine Lords.
However, the cultivators had also suffered heavy losses. Several Pristine Saints had died, and one Great Saint had fallen. For the Gods and Demons, this was a very small loss. It was also because of Chen Zong's timely arrival. With the help of the Sea Suppressing Pearl's powerful might, he had continuously suppressed and killed the Righteous Gods and Spiritual Gods. This had greatly reduced the pressure on the cultivators. In the end, he had even taken advantage of the Ancient Sword Master's arrival to kill a weakened Divine Lord. This had completely shocked the Gods and Demons.
Otherwise, the cultivators' losses would not have been this small.
Although there were losses, the gains were not small. After this battle, there would be some Quasi-Saints who would have the opportunity to break through again and attempt to break through to the Sacred Level. They might even succeed. After all, they had obtained some Demigod divinity and so on. These would allow them to have the possibility of breaking through to the Sacred Level again.
Now that they had won this battle, they needed to rest and reorganize. In addition, the formation outside the Gate of the Gods and Demons had to be rearranged and further reinforced.
Twice, the Gods and Demons had used different methods to break the formation, allowing the Gods and Demons to cross over. The first time, they did it unknowingly. The second time, they attacked forcefully.
What about the third time?
If there was a third time, then the Gods and Demons would definitely be more prepared. When they crossed over again, it would not be so simple. No, it was certain that there would definitely be a third time. It was just that no one knew when.
Especially now that the Lord of Space and Time was hiding in the Ancient Mystic World.
"From now on, I will stand guard here," the Ancient Sword Master said, his voice shaking the heavens and earth.
