At the frontline of the Monster Slaying Weave, there were battle fortresses suspended in the void. Each battle fortress was separated by a distance of a million miles. There were a total of 99 such battle fortresses, forming an arc that protected the Monster Slaying Weave.
Within the space of one million miles between each battle fort, there were many prismatic crystals. Each prismatic crystal was ten meters long, five meters wide, and three meters thick. Each prismatic crystal was tens of thousands of miles away from each other.
In other words, there were 99 prismatic crystals between two battle fortresses.
Each prismatic crystal was almost transparent, like a crystal. It emitted layers of halos, covering a radius of ten thousand miles. From afar, it looked like a little bit of starlight.
There were at least a dozen people guarding the thousand-meter radius of each prismatic crystal. At most, there were 20 to 30 people guarding it.
At the 39th prismatic crystal of the 19th battle fortress, there were 11 figures guarding it.
One of the figures was floating in the air, surrounded by a thin layer of flame. The flame seemed to be green, but it also seemed to be golden. Or it could be said that the green flame was filled with specks of golden light like stars. It was very dazzling and magnificent.
A long sword was floating beside him. It seemed to be constantly spitting out green and gold flames. As the sword Qi spat out, it seemed to be strengthening bit by bit, becoming more and more tyrannical.
"Lord Qing Huang is working too hard."
"Since Lord is working so hard, we have to work hard too. We have to try to comprehend the truth of the universe's Great Dao as soon as possible and break through to the True Saint Realm."
Looking at the female sword cultivator wearing the Azure-Gold True Phoenix Saint Armor cultivating hard, the other 10 figures also began to cultivate.
This was also one of the methods they usually used to guard the battle fortress nodes.
Cultivation was very important. They could not waste time. Otherwise, they might regret their lack of strength and why they did not work harder. The Ancient Demons would not talk so much. They would directly kill.
The days of guarding the battle fortress nodes were undoubtedly boring, but they had to do so. Otherwise, if the nodes were destroyed, the connection between the battle fortresses would be broken. The more nodes were destroyed, the greater the impact. When the number of nodes destroyed reached a certain number, the connection between the battle fortresses would completely disappear. At that time, the Ancient Demons would be able to break into the Demon Slayer Territory and then other territories.
Therefore, the nodes could not be lost.
Occasionally, a few nodes would be damaged, and they would have to be repaired or even rebuilt immediately. Normally, they would need cultivators to guard them.
This node was guarded by two True Saint Realm masters and ten top Saint Realm masters.
A beam of crimson fire spread out and came from the void. It was as swift as a flaming meteor. In the blink of an eye, it streaked across the sky and escaped into the ten thousand meters of light covered by the node. Finally, it stopped in front of the female Sword Cultivator in the green-gold True Phoenix Armor.
This was a young male cultivator wearing a crimson robe. There seemed to be a nail-sized, prismatic crimson crystal embedded between his eyebrows. There seemed to be a flame burning within it, making this male cultivator look very handsome.
"Qing Huang, I'm back." The male cultivator smiled at the female sword cultivator. Soon after, he clasped his hands together and opened them again. A ball of fire immediately burned. Within the ball of fire, a faint flower bud slowly appeared and bloomed.
As soon as the flower bud bloomed, it immediately absorbed all the Void Energy around it and constantly replenished itself. It quickly solidified and finally turned into a strange-looking flower. It looked like a phoenix that was about to spread its wings and soar high. Wisps of flame aura surrounded it.
There seemed to be a cry that sounded like the cry of a phoenix.
"This is for you. The Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower." The male cultivator gave the flower that looked like a phoenix as if he was offering a treasure. It turned into a small crimson phoenix and flew toward the female sword cultivator.
The Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower was a kind of treasure that was shockingly valuable. It was of great help to cultivators who comprehended the Great Dao of Fire of the Universe. It was also of great help to True Saint Realm masters who had comprehended the Great Dao of Fire.
More importantly, it was of great help to cultivators who had the Flaming Phoenix bloodline.
Once the Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower approached and came into contact with the female sword cultivator's body, it would merge into her body and be absorbed, refined, and absorbed again to increase her cultivation base and strength.
Seeing the Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower approach the female sword cultivator, the male cultivator instantly smiled. The next moment, his expression changed drastically.
The Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower couldn't merge into the female sword cultivator's green-gold fire. Instead, it was rejected.
"Why?" The male cultivator immediately asked. "I spent so much effort and decades to finally find this Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower. It can increase your strength and help you reach the peak of True Saint Realm. Why don't you accept it?"
The female sword cultivator didn't answer. Or rather, silence was an answer.
"Tell me. I want to know why." The male cultivator gritted his teeth. His face grew ferocious. He'd pursued this female sword cultivator for hundreds of years, but until now, she hadn't moved at all. She didn't accept any of his good intentions.
"I have a cultivation partner," the female sword cultivator finally said. Her voice was clear and bright.
I have a cultivation partner, so I won't accept your pursuit or any of your good intentions.
"This reason again," the male cultivator growled. He couldn't accept this. "I've followed you for hundreds of years, but I've never seen your cultivation partner. Even if you had one, he'd be long dead."
"He won't die. He's definitely still alive." The female sword cultivator's tone was firm. "One day, he'll find me, and I'll find him."
Her tone was so firm that the male cultivator almost went crazy.
"I'm a Candidate for Deity of Xuan Flame Divine Palace, but I've followed you for hundreds of years. I even followed you to guard this place with a bunch of lowly people. Don't you know how much I've sacrificed?" The male cultivator was extremely agitated. His expression grew even more ferocious. "I spent decades to find a Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower for you, but you don't want to accept it. Is this how you treat me? You trample on my efforts, my sacrifice, and my dignity."
As he spoke, the male cultivator furiously attacked. A crimson light suddenly pierced through the sky and instantly struck the Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower, completely shattering it.
The Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower, which was extremely valuable and could only be bought with tens of millions of Chaos Divine Crystals, was shattered just like that. No, even if one had tens of millions of Chaos Divine Crystals, one might not be able to buy a Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower because it was very difficult to find.
"A bunch of lowly people, die!" After destroying the Void Heavenly Phoenix Flower, the male cultivator's anger was aimed at the ten peak Saint Realm experts. He immediately attacked, blasting out a blazing crimson flame.
The flame was extremely red and extremely hot. It could easily incinerate everything. The ten peak Saint Realm experts were completely locked on. They were extremely frightened and couldn't dodge at all.
They were waiting for death!
They could only wait for death.
In the Saint Realm, even if the gap between a peak Saint Realm master and a True Saint Realm master was huge, this person was a peak True Saint Realm master. The power of his attack was astonishing.
Death!
The result was death, an irresistible death.
In the blink of an eye, the female sword cultivator's expression changed slightly. She immediately released a shocking Sword Intent. The Sword Intent was earth-shattering. As soon as it appeared, it turned into a vast azure and golden sword light. Burning with endless flames, it directly shattered the flame and saved the ten peak Saint Realm experts.
"You …" The male cultivator was stunned. He became even more furious and attacked again. The female sword cultivator also attacked, blocking all his attacks.
"Good, good, good!" The male cultivator was extremely furious. He was indeed stronger than the female sword cultivator, but without using his trump card, his strength was limited. He could defeat his opponent, but it would be difficult for him to kill them.
As such, it wouldn't be easy to kill the ten Saint Realm ants. However, if he insisted on killing them, he could still do it.
"This is the Fortress's node. We can't afford to lose it." The female sword cultivator said coldly, "If you cause the node to malfunction, even the Dazzling Flame Divine Palace won't be able to protect you."
The male cultivator gritted his teeth but didn't attack again. He knew very well that this was indeed the node and they were all guarding it. If he killed the ten Saint Realm experts and caused the node to malfunction, the consequences wouldn't be something he could bear.
It wouldn't be easy for the Dazzling Flame Divine Palace to protect him.
Then, this was a serious problem. He was one of the candidates for the position of God Son of the Dazzling Flame Divine Palace. If he did something wrong, it would affect his position.
"You will definitely regret it." The male cultivator stared at the female sword cultivator and said word by word. Every word seemed to be filled with a terrifying threat.
"I have regretted something, but it has nothing to do with you," the female sword cultivator replied.
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, the male cultivator's body immediately emitted strands of flames. With a boom, he flew out like a meteor. His speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he flew out of the area of the node and towards the battle fortress in the distance.
"Thank you, Master Qing Huang."
"Thank you, Master Qing Huang, for saving us."
"Fortunately, Master Qing Huang intervened. Otherwise, we would all be finished."
The ten top Saint Realm experts immediately expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the female sword cultivator.
"I can only block him for a while. After this round of guarding is over and we leave, you all have to be careful," the female sword cultivator warned.
She wasn't threatening them, but stating a fact.
Because this person's temperament wasn't good, whenever he was unhappy, he would vent his anger on others. Since he had failed to kill them this time, he would definitely hold this grudge in his heart. When the time came, these ten Saint Realm masters would have already left the node, and it was very likely that this person would seek revenge.
A Saint Realm expert, even a top Saint Realm expert, was targeted by a top True Saint Realm expert. Unless they had a powerful backer, they wouldn't be able to resist. Not to mention, the top True Saint Realm expert was a candidate for the Dazzling Flame Divine Palace, even if he was just one of the candidates.
The Dazzling Flame Divine Palace was a powerful force with a Demigod Realm expert in charge. It wasn't something an ordinary force could compare with. It was a top force among the Human Race and the Origin Race.
For a moment, the ten top Saint Realm experts all looked worried.
At that moment, a figure approached from the distance at an astonishing speed. A terrifying murderous aura swept over like a storm.
