Due to the losses suffered in the first battle, the Revolutionary Army did not have many ships left. Therefore, only the elites of the elites were selected. The upper three ranks would be the main attackers, while the Peerless Master Pros would assist or defend the ships. The lower three ranks would lead the selected Enlightened Master Pros to set up a formation to help protect the ships. Even birds could not cross the Nu River because there were many terrifying monsters hidden at the bottom. If the ships were destroyed, the masters attacking the altar would lose their way and fall into a desperate situation.
With so many experts on the ship, their vital energy was tempered, and their vitality was exuberant. They couldn't be restrained as they charged into the sky, and they formed expanse after expanse of battle clouds that were vast and lofty.
After a long time, the altar came into view. Its lower part was submerged in the river as if connected to the bottom. However, there was no sign of invasion by monsters. The part above the water was nine levels high. It was yellow in color and carved with many strange characters and images of gods. Faint holy light flowed around it. They spread along the network of blood vessels and meridians to the highest point, the core!
The Crown Prince, Shen Yunqing, sat cross-legged with the Emperor's Blade in his hand. His eyes were half-closed, and his breath was terrifying. He looked like the Son of Heaven who ruled over thousands of people. In front of him was the ninth level altar that was only half the height of a man. It was made of all kinds of precious metals and was completely golden.
Several Exterior masters of the Cult of the Gory Seas were busy setting up the ninth level of the altar. It seemed that they would succeed in a short while!
"The altar can be activated in half a cup of tea's time." Qi Zhengyan, who was standing beside Du Huaishang and Meng Qi, said in a solemn tone, "Don't kill too many people later. Every person you kill is equivalent to sacrificing a portion of power to the altar. It will help it complete as soon as possible and connect the Nine Heavens and Nine Earths."
At this time, the Exterior masters of the Revolutionary Army were very experienced. With the interference of the divine breath, they stopped just outside of the enemy's attack range.
Du Huaishang's expression was solemn as he said in a low voice,
"We can't delay any longer. Beat the drums and attack according to the original plan!"
Dong, dong, dong! Dong, dong, dong!
The sound of the drums shook the heavens and drowned out the roar of the Nu River. A few figures from the Naval Garrison Army, Nine Mountains Army, Lord Fudi, and the Army of Progeny each swept out and split into two groups. They stepped on driftwood and attacked the left and right sides of the altar, where Marquis Wutong, General Kou Jin, General of the South Expedition, Dou Qing, and Minister of War Liu Tuizhi were guarding.
Groups of soldiers were scattered around the altar. Under the leadership of experts of the Exterior, they stood at different cardinal points and contributed their Blood, Qi, and Genuine Vitality. The Blood, Qi, and Genuine Vitality were connected with the Restrictive Spell. Layers of blood-yellow mist rose around the altar. The mist was filled with dense Evil Qi and blocked most eyes.
Du Gushi was dressed in an embroidered robe with a black cloak draped over his back. He held a golden spear in his hand. Coupled with his unusually tall stature, he seemed to be the center of the world as he stood within the Restrictive Spell. He looked majestic and imposing.
Immortal Wanshi flicked out a long sword that was as smooth as autumn water. With a wave of his sleeve, driftwood appeared on the surface of the vast river. He flew out and tapped on the driftwood with his feet before slashing his sword at Du Gushi from afar!
The sword light transformed and the river split open, revealing the darkness and restless monsters in the depths. Mengqi, Jiang Zhiwei, Qi Zhengyan, and Du Huaishang followed closely behind. Ruan Yushu stayed on the warship and used his Thousand Mile Killing Sound to amplify the range of his zither music. He assisted from afar while Zhao Heng, Hu Zhigao, and the others guarded the side to prevent any sudden attacks from the experts of the imperial court.
Although he did not know the Law Phenomenon, Du Gushi was like a deity supporting the heavens. He took a step forward on the altar and swung his golden spear. Every tremble of the spear transformed into a spear flower that was connected to the Yin and Yang transformation of the Restrictive Spell. In an instant, the sky darkened. Mengqi felt as if a "sky full of stars" was falling from the sky, leaving behind trails of light that completely enveloped him and the others. The altar and Du Gushi could no longer be seen!
"With the help of the formation, it seems that he alone can stop all of us!" This thought involuntarily surfaced in Mengqi's mind. "The might of the" Martial Monarch "is truly unparalleled. His spear art is indeed unparalleled!"
Coupled with the help of the Dissimilated Man, the defense of the formation, and the defensive formation formed by the warships with various Restrictive Spells around the altar, Mengqi suspected that they would not be able to break through the barrier in a day and a night, let alone half a cup of tea's time.
"Clang!
Clang! "Immortal Wanshi, Jiang Zhiwei, and Qi Zhengyan each activated their swordsmanship and performed the Baihong Milky Way, barely managing to block Du Gushi's spear.
Just then, Du Huaishang lifted the "Sword of Divine Mandate" expressionlessly. His breath, Genuine Vitality, and the Power of Heaven and Earth he had drawn were all infused into the sword.
The battle had just begun, but he had already made up his mind to activate the divine weapon!
In front of the ninth level of the altar, Crown Prince Shen Yunqing, who was giving it his all, did not expect Du Huaishang to be so reckless and direct. He wanted to brandish the Supreme Emperor's Saber, but it was already too late.
"Is he not going to leave a way out?
Is he not going to guard against his own Supreme Emperor's Saber? "
"By the will of Heaven, I speak with the will of Heaven!"
Holy voices rang in the void as a blazing golden sword light slashed at the altar. The meteors in the sky were extinguished, and the wide river was split in two. The monsters under the water dodged in all directions, but they were all injured!
"Bang!"
The sword light knocked Du Gushi back, and the aftermath overturned several boats. But it did not stop there. It slashed at the Blood Yellow Restrictive Spell.
With a piercing sound, the Restrictive Spell was broken. Groups of soldiers and experts of the Exterior in the cardinal area were reduced to a bloody mist and seeped into the altar.
The Restrictive Spell on the altar, which had been hastily set up in two days, could not compare to the camp that had been painstakingly built.
Du Huaishang's face turned pale. But while the altar was in chaos, he took out a panacea and swallowed it. His breath quickly recovered. Even though he could not activate the divine weapon or attack with all his strength, he could at least protect himself. The Grand Sun Golden Crow appeared behind him, evaporating the river water and melting the enemies with his fists.
After some testing, Mengqi found that the extra Immortality Elixirs of East Pole were sealed. Like the main ingredients of the divine weapon, they could not be used by Du Huaishang.
With the Restrictive Spell broken, Du Gushi's imposing manner, which seemed to be able to withstand thousands of catties, was immediately weakened. Even so, he was still as awe-inspiring as a deity. His gaze was as sharp as ever, and his fighting spirit was high. With a flick of his long spear, it turned into a meteor that pierced toward Qi Zhengyan.
Yes, his first enemy was Qi Zhengyan, not Immortal Wanshi. For some reason, his clear mind always felt that this man with facial paralysis was the most dangerous!
The meteors were dazzling, and each of them looked real. They were no different from meteorites falling from the sky. They were full of explosive power and penetrating power. If one were to face them head-on, there would be nothing left of them!
Before the attack arrived, the airwaves rippled. Pieces of driftwood were blown away and submerged by the waves, depriving Qi Zhengyan of space to dodge and maneuver.
Qi Zhengyan's skin turned slightly red. His eyes seemed to be the deepest and darkest place between heaven and earth. He took a step forward, creating a Qi explosion in mid-air. Taking advantage of this, he made a graceful turn on the surface of the river where even birds could not cross. His long sword, which was covered in a layer of ice crystals, slashed nine times in a row. The sword light of each slash landed perfectly on the side of the meteors formed by the spear, slowing them down and leading them into the Nu River.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Waves after waves were smashed out. Immortal Wanshi raised his sword and blocked Du Gushi's continuous spear shadows.
Qi Zhengyan withdrew his long sword and slashed out slowly. It turned into a monstrous wave that roared and pounced at Du Gushi. It was accompanied by the nine raging waves on the river that contained the impact force of the meteors.
Although it was an ordinary move in the Indigo Sea, he had fully utilized the residual force of Du Gushi's previous attack. He had used the momentum of Du Gushi's attack from a macroscopic perspective. The ingenuity of his choice and the depth of his intentions left Du Gushi in awe.
"Whoosh!" On the altar, Qi Zhengyan and Immortal Wanshi had joined forces to completely hold back Du Gushi, a first-grade expert.
As the two Peerless Master Pros held Du Huaishang back, Jiang Zhiwei took the lead, followed by Mengqi. They rushed past the altar, which had been deactivated by the Restrictive Spell.
Under the aftermath of the attack, the altar was not damaged at all, even though Jiang Zhi Wei had struck it with all her might.
"It's useless. As long as the core is intact, the altar will not be destroyed!" Shen Yunqing, who was standing on a high vantage point, laughed. He did not activate the Emperor Saber because he felt that only important targets were worthy of a divine weapon.
Restricted by the power of the altar, Jiang Zhiwei's attack could not reach far. She had no choice but to tap her feet in an attempt to climb to the ninth floor.
Suddenly, a sinister green saber radiance flashed by. It was so strange and unexpected that it was impossible to guard against it. If it were not for Jiang Zhiwei's ability to detect before the autumn wind blows, she would have been struck.
Her long sword turned into an arc and blocked the saber with an incredible twist. When the two weapons collided, a huge force surged and Jiang Zhiwei was forced to take several steps back.
A chilly wind rose in the surroundings, swirling with numerous skull-like green auras, turning the place into a holy land for vengeful spirits and demonic souls. Not only did Jiang Zhiwei have to inhale and exhale her Vital Qi, but even breathing became a little difficult.
Amidst the dancing green auras, Wen Jing wielded a sinister green saber and slashed at her.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" Jiang Zhiwei took three steps back and barely managed to block the attack. At the same time, Mengqi, who wanted to help, suddenly felt a wind rope entangling his body and slowing his movements.
"An assistant of the Taoist branch?" Mengqi's heart skipped a beat, but he did not panic.
At this moment, the sound of the zither came from afar like a bell, shaking the Three Realms. The wind rope froze and Wen Jing slowed down.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Zhiwei switched from defense to offense. She came like a fleeting shadow!
The sword radiance was pure, as beautiful as the sky. Time and thoughts seemed to slow down. Wen Jing could only watch the sword stab at the center of his eyebrows.
"Whoosh!"
The demonic souls of the skeletons seemed to be connected to the depths of the ground. Green light emerged and broke the silence. Wen Jing suddenly came back to his senses. He drew his long saber and condensed all the souls into one point, blocking Jiang Zhiwei's attack.
"Hmph, let's see how long the sound of the zither can last." Wen Jing's saber radiance spread out, sucking in and slashing at the same time. He absorbed Jiang Zhiwei and Mengqi completely.
Just as he absorbed them, he suddenly had a bad feeling and his heart tightened.
On the battleship, Ruan Yushu played the zither with both hands. With the help of the "Thousand Miles", Zhao Heng, Hou Yue, and the others were guarding him.
However, in the corner they neglected, the void floated and a translucent sword tip stabbed at Ruan Yushu's Dantian.
"Clang!"
A pure white saber radiance lit up and hit the sword tip. The strength and sharpness of the long saber caused a gap to appear on the sword tip, allowing the almost translucent assassin to retreat from the void.
Mengqi revealed himself with the Saber of the Slaying Jade in his hand. He took a step forward and slashed again!
If this thief was not eliminated, the rear would be unstable. Therefore, from the beginning, it was only his doppelganger that attacked the altar. His original body turned into a small worm and hid in the folds of Ruan Yushu's clothes.
"Sharpening the knife will not delay the work of cutting firewood!"
The saber radiance was dazzling, cutting through the darkness and splitting the earth. The speed was so fast that the assassin could only barely block it.
"Clang!"
He was sent flying again. Mengqi pounced on him. Each slash was a strike of the Splitting Heaven and Earth. Compared to the Dharmakaya moves, this was a self-created saber move of the Exterior. Not only was it powerful, but it also consumed less energy.
Clang, clang, clang!
After four slashes, Mengqi threw out the driftwood and went straight to the altar without looking back.
The assassin appeared and stood on the side of the ship. It was Xu Wei's "shadow". Clap, clap, clap. His hands and feet fell and smashed on the deck. Then, a deep wound appeared from the mid-brows to the lower abdomen. His body was split into two halves. The Precious Weapon in his hand broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.
Only then did blood spurt out, staining the deck red.
"Xu Qian was killed by a Samsara traveler from the opposing camp. 3,000 Karma points will be deducted from each of you."
Wen Jing, who had just realized that the strength of the "Shi" was not right, had a bad idea. Then, he heard the voice of the Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms. Then, he saw a figure sweeping across the river, the saber in his hand shining with purple lightning and green thunder.
"Thief, take this …" Suddenly, Mengqi roared and slashed with his long saber. His body flew with the saber.
"Saber, saber, saber, saber!" The voice was like a sharp thorn, piercing through the void. The waves exploded one after another.
As soon as the drawn-out voice reached Wen Jing's ears, he saw the sky filled with purple lightning. Each purple lightning was a saber radiance, wrapped in a giant that looked like a thunder god and fell from the sky!
"Take this!"
The voice reverberated. The purple lightning fell and scattered the demon soul!
