"This is the Southern Barren State of the 13 States. When the Extraterrestrial Demons descended, they appeared under the sky outside the Southern Barren State."
Gu Changge, Ah Qing, and Ah Da walked casually on the battlefield. There seemed to be an invisible domain around them.
Even the most powerful cultivators would not be able to see them.
All of the attacks and shockwaves were neutralized by an invisible force when they were about to reach the three of them, dispersing like ripples.
Ah Qing understood that this was Gu Changge's method. It was mysterious and difficult to guess, so she looked at the scene of the battle in front of her and explained in a low voice.
She knew that Gu Changge meant no harm. After bringing her back to her hometown, he came alone with only one of his subordinates. He did not walk with the army of the Upper Worlds.
Gu Changge was her savior, completely different from the other cultivators of the Upper Worlds.
"The Southern Barren State of the 13 States?"
"Then the city in the distance is the Southern Barren City?"
Gu Changge nodded.
From Ah Qing, he knew that there were 13 States in the Sword Mystery World, and the territory of each of them was extremely vast.
Although it was far from comparable to the Upper Worlds, it was much vaster than the territories of the other ancient great worlds.
Moreover, ever since he came to this world, he felt that there was an extremely clear will in this world.
To be precise, this world had a spirit that could even manipulate the rules of heaven and earth, so that it could contend against the strongest cultivators of the Upper Worlds and prevent their arrival. It was not something that the ordinary will of heaven and earth could compare to.
Gu Changge's cultivation method was completely different from that of other cultivators. When he restrained all of his aura, no one could detect his actual situation.
Therefore, in this world, Gu Changge's existence was more like a piece of nothingness, vast and unknown.
He was not worried about being resisted by this world.
Moreover, he came for the origin of this world. If he had a consciousness, it would be easier to deal with him.
"Yes, but it seems that it won't be long before the Southern Barren City is breached. Those cultivators were sent by the Nanming Dynasty in the Southern Barren State."
"The Nanming Dynasty is affiliated with the Sword Cliff. They are also a famous superpower in the Southern Barren State. They have been fighting against the Extraterrestrial Demons all this time," Ah Qing said, looking at the ancient city in front of them.
Although the thirteen prefectures had sent experts over, they were too far away. Even if they passed through the spatial altars, it would take a lot of time.
Furthermore, there were simply too many Extraterrestrial Demons. There was simply no way to wipe them all out. Even if they managed to fend off one wave, there would be a second wave after a while.
The barren land outside of the Southern Wasteland City was all caused by the recent battle. In the past, there were many forces that resided here. The city stretched on and was extremely prosperous.
But now, it was all in ruins. There was not a single place that was still intact.
It wasn't a river of blood, but it was close.
Just as the two of them were talking, a loud noise suddenly came from the towering ancient city in the distance. The tall city walls collapsed, and so did the light curtain. It was difficult to continue defending against the surrounding attacks.
A golden cauldron fell from the sky, carrying wind and thunder. It was summoned by a cultivator and shattered the protective shield.
The few young sword cultivators who attacked before also coughed up blood. Then, they were sent flying backward, covered in blood.
Everyone was shouting. Some were frightened, some were desperate, and some were determined to fight against the army of the Upper World.
"Kill!!"
Shouts shook the sky. The ancient city was breached. The army of the Upper World shouted and rushed forward like wolves and tigers. They took the absolute initiative and wanted to occupy the Southern Wasteland City.
On the other side, the army was defeated. The defeated army fled like a tide. Their faces were full of fear and despair. However, the army of the Upper World was surrounding those powerful sword cultivators.
They did not care much about those soldiers with weaker cultivation.
"Cover the escape of the Fourth Princess!"
"Fight against these Extraterrestrial Demons!! We can't let the Fourth Princess fall into their hands! "
Someone in the Southern Wasteland City shouted loudly. Several terrifying sword auras rushed out. Several figures held long swords and attacked that cultivator in the sky.
That place immediately became chaotic. Light shone brilliantly, illuminating the skies. Blade radiance and sword shadows scattered in all directions. Countless people were fighting.
"The Fourth Princess of the Southern Wasteland Dynasty is also here?"
Ah Qing raised her head and looked at the Southern Wasteland City that was gradually collapsing. A hint of surprise appeared on her face.
Not only did she recognize the Fourth Princess, the two of them even had a good relationship. In the past, they discussed the way of the sword together. They were quite like-minded.
However, at this juncture, even if she wanted to go and rescue the Fourth Princess, she had no way to do it.
The figure in the sky who summoned the golden cauldron was really too powerful. Just by standing there, he had an invincible might. He swept through many sword cultivators in the surroundings without falling into a disadvantageous position.
They were now in the midst of chaos. Although everyone in the surroundings turned a blind eye to them, Ah Qing could still feel that kind of terrible and desperate situation.
"That Fourth Princess is an old friend of yours?" Hearing her words, Gu Changge said with a smile.
Ah Qing nodded and looked at Gu Changge. "Yes, she is the Fourth Princess of the Southern Wasteland Imperial City. At the same time, she is also the first genius and the second beauty of the Southern Wasteland Imperial City."
"The first genius and the second beauty?" Gu Changge seemed to be a little surprised.
"Xuan Die is a very good person. After learning of the invasion of the Extraterrestrial Demons, she immediately went with the army to the border to resist," Ah Qing said.
Boom!!
The fluctuations in front of them became more and more terrifying. The towering mountain-like walls were collapsing. In the end, the endless brilliance collapsed. They couldn't resist the army of the Upper World at all.
Endless sword auras soared into the sky. Each of them was as big as a mountain ridge. They slashed horizontally.
However, in front of the figure holding the golden cauldron, they burst like bubbles and turned into ashes.
Everyone was coughing up blood and retreating. Even if they tried their best, they couldn't resist the enemy's footsteps.
This was a despairing and shuddering scene.
The soldiers riding ferocious beasts attacked in large numbers. Their shouts shook the sky. Everything in their way was destroyed. They were like terrifying sharp swords that could cut through anything.
In the city that was about to collapse, a carriage rose into the sky. There were many figures around it protecting it. It seemed that they wanted to take the opportunity to break through.
Beside the carriage, an old man without a white beard held a Taoist Sword. He stood in the air and wanted to block the terrifying figure holding the golden cauldron.
"Don't even think about getting there!"
He shouted in a low voice. The Taoist Sword shone resplendently. It spewed out terrifying sword rays that illuminated all directions.
"Ignorant ant, how dare you stop me?"
The terrifying figure holding the golden cauldron said coldly. He didn't look like a human. There was a vertical eye between his eyebrows that was surrounded by lightning patterns.
Without a doubt, he was extremely powerful. He was one of the powerhouses sent by the Upper World to the Sword Mystery World this time.
In this direction, the two people soon started fighting. Terrifying fluctuations swept through the sky and the ground. Countless mountains in the surroundings trembled. Gray cracks cracked open, and endless murderous auras rushed out.
Even if it was only the aftermath of a battle of this level, it was a destructive disaster for all the living creatures and cultivators below.
In the face of the merciless slaughter of the Upper World's army, the cultivators of the Sword Mystery World had almost no room to resist. They retreated in defeat.
The Southern Wasteland City, which had been standing tall a moment ago, had completely collapsed at this moment, turning into ruins.
The young girl Ah Qing looked at this scene and clenched her small hands. She couldn't bear it and turned her head away.
In such a tragic battle, the Sword Mystery World had no way to resist.
Moreover, she knew very well that the army in front of her was only a small part of the people sent by the Upper World this time.
More of the army was still stationed in outer space. There were more powerhouses there.
"It seems that your old friend won't be able to escape."
Gu Changge's expression didn't change. He smiled faintly and led Ah Qing through the ruins of the ancient city in front of him. His speed wasn't fast, but the ground under his feet seemed to be changing. In the next moment, he appeared thousands of miles away.
"Benefactor, can you help her?" At this moment, Ah Qing also noticed the changes in the battle situation. There was a pleading look in her eyes.
The old man without a white beard was obviously no match for the person from the Upper World. He had already coughed up blood and was at a disadvantage. His body was stained with blood, and his aura was weak. Even the Taoist Sword in his hand had shattered.
In the next moment, a golden cauldron descended from the sky with terrifying lightning.
Death appeared on the old man's face. With a scream, he was directly turned into a bloody mist. His body and soul were destroyed.
This scene made the army on the tragic battlefield even more desperate. However, after killing the old man, the figure didn't stay any longer. Instead, he took out the cauldron and chased forward again.
He could see that there was an extremely important person in the carriage in front. Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have used his death to buy time.
"Dong!"
In the sky, more knights rushed down. The big bell boomed, and the sound waves spread out like knives. It was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, crazily harvesting lives.
Not only were many sword cultivators in the sky shattered, but even the army on the ground fell in droves. The world was filled with an aura of despair.
"Fourth Princess, Elder Yuan has fallen. He was killed by the Extraterrestrial Demon."
The people in the carriage felt the waves in the distance. They couldn't help but reveal sorrowful expressions.
A servant girl with a pretty face lost all color in her face. Her face turned pale as she trembled uncontrollably.
In their eyes, Elder Yuan was already a super strong cultivator. That was why the Nanming Dynasty's emperor sent him to protect the princess.
However, under the hands of that horrifying Extraterrestrial Demon, they were quickly killed. They couldn't even delay for time.
A calm voice sounded in the carriage. "The Extraterrestrial Demon that descended this time is far more terrifying than the previous ones. Elder Yuan was already a Seventh Realm cultivator, but he was still not that person's match."
"The other party is very likely half a step into the Eighth Realm."
In the Sword Mystery World, the cultivation realms were divided into nine major realms. Only by completing all nine major realms could one enter the Earth Sword Immortal Realm.
The Seventh Realm was already enough to look down on the world. It was difficult to find a match.
The girl who spoke had black hair like clouds. She had bright white teeth and a smile that could topple cities. She was so beautiful that it was dreamy. Her hair fluttered like a fairy.
She was the number one genius of the Southern Barren State, known as the second beauty, Princess Xuan Die.
Even in such a desperate situation, she still maintained an extraordinary calmness. She looked at the scene behind her. There was a sword pill hidden in her sleeve.
She wouldn't let the other party capture her. If she was faced with death, she would end her life at the first moment.
As a princess, she wouldn't be humiliated until death. She would die with dignity!
"Princess, what should we do? That Extraterrestrial Demon will catch up soon." The rest of the people in the carriage were pale with fear. They were frightened by the scene just now.
Although the carriage had the ability to travel through space, it was obvious that the other party was also very fast. It was only a matter of time before he caught up.
They didn't have many guards with them. Moreover, they couldn't possibly be the other party's match.
The men of sacrifice who came with Princess Xuan Die had all died during this time. Now, there weren't many people left with her. Elder Yuan was her last trump card.
Unfortunately, he was already dead. His body and soul were destroyed.
Now, there were only two paths in front of everyone. Either they were captured, or they were killed.
"Don't be afraid. At worst, we'll just die. As citizens of the Nanming Empire, why should we fear death?" Princess Xuan Die didn't show any despair. Instead, she was calm. She didn't show any fear at this juncture.
However, her words were obviously not of much use. The others trembled even more. They could feel the terrifying pressure chasing after them. It swept through the heavens and earth, making their skin feel like it was going to collapse.
"Let's see where you can run to today."
The figure with the great golden cauldron in hand caught up, and with a single palm, this space was locked down, making it difficult to move even a single step.
"Protect the princess!"
"Don't let him take another step!"
Several figures around the carriage roared angrily. Their eyes were red. They charged out, wanting to fight the other party to the death.
Princess Xuan Die also took the initiative to walk out at this moment. There was calmness between her brows. She held an exquisite longsword in her hand. It flickered with dark green radiance as she faced everything.
She wasn't inferior to men.
Even though she knew that she couldn't win and might lose her life here, she was incomparably calm.
"So it's a princess. Seems like you have some value."
The figure holding the golden cauldron sneered. He stood in the air. A terrifying aura spread out from his body, making people's hearts tremble.
Princess Xuan Die looked at him calmly and said, "Why did you invade our world? What's the reason? "
"We trample ants to death. Do we need to care about the reason?"
The figure sneered. He didn't plan to talk nonsense. He directly stretched out his hand and tried to grab Princess Xuan Die. His attitude was incomparably casual.
When the others saw this, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. They tried to stop him, but under the huge difference, they could only cough up blood and fly backward. Their bodies were full of wounds and were about to collapse.
Princess Xuan Die's expression changed. She wanted to fight back, but soon found that the surroundings were like a swamp. There was no way to fight back.
As for activating the sword pellet, it was even more impossible.
"Can't I even die today?" Princess Xuan Die felt a sense of helplessness towards her own weakness.
However, in the next moment, the hand that was about to reach her suddenly stopped.
The figure with the golden cauldron on his head also stopped. His expression seemed to be a little uncertain. Then, his expression changed. He cupped his hands in a certain direction and didn't dare to stay. He hurriedly turned into a divine rainbow and fled.
"What happened?"
Princess Xuan Die's face was also filled with uncertainty. She didn't know what had happened.
The rest of the people were also confused. They had no idea why that powerhouse suddenly left and spared their lives.
"That direction?"
Princess Xuan Die suddenly remembered that the expert looked in a certain direction. Then, his expression changed, and he fled.
She looked in that direction with doubt and confusion.
But soon, she couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes. She was in disbelief. Her voice was filled with surprise.
"Ah Qing?"
