A powerful energy burst forth and continuously bombarded the mountain-protecting formation.

Waves of ripples were stirred up on the golden light screen.

​​

Although it did not show any signs of shattering, one could vaguely see that the light screen had dimmed a little.

While the rest of the people from the Mysterious Sky Sect were still rejoicing over the sect-protecting formation, sect master Zhuang Changhe could not help but feel a strong sense of unease in his heart.

No matter how powerful the formation was, it had its limits. Under the Great Qin's powerful offensive formation, although the formation could temporarily hold them off, it would not be able to hold them off for a long time.

A powerful energy fluctuation rushed out from the black-robed elder's body. An extremely cold aura immediately burst out from his body. Even through the large needles, one could feel the piercing cold aura assaulting them.

It was obvious that they were going to start the second wave of attack.

More than ten thousand Nascent Soul Stage soldiers moved in unison and formed a shallow attack array. Under the command of their commander, all the soldiers gathered their energy in one place.

In the sky more than thirty meters above the golden light curtain, a colorful energy ball began to expand.

"Attack!" Chen Youliang gave the order, and all the attacks were aimed at the sect-protecting array once again.

"Rumble!"

Almost at the same time, a thunder suddenly exploded on a sunny day. The Golden Light Shield became dimmer and dimmer.

Zhuang Changhe's heart sank when he saw this.

He looked at the peak masters and elders beside him.

"You can lead the disciples of the sect to retreat from the sect's secret passage. It can also be considered as leaving a spark for our Blackheaven Sword Sect."

"What about you, Sect Master?"

Zhuang Changhe sighed.

"Sect Master, we're not leaving. Let's fight it out with them."

Everyone gathered around and looked at Zhuang Changhe with a complicated expression.

"All of you can die here, including me. But what about the other disciples? What about them?"

Zhuang Changhe was furious and his voice was cold.

Hearing this, everyone quieted down.

Indeed, they could die, but the disciples were the seedlings of the Blackheaven Sword Sect. If all of them died here, then the Blackheaven Sword Sect would completely disappear.

A heavy atmosphere began to linger in everyone's mind.

"Damn it, let's Go! Let's Go!"

The Peak Master of the Flaming Red Peak, who had always been hot-tempered, cursed and turned to leave.

Seeing this, the other elders hesitated for a moment before turning around as well.

Chen Youliang's mocking voice came from outside the array.

"Hahaha!"

"You want to stop me just by breaking the array? I have to say, Sect Master Zhuang, you're still too naive."

"Hmph! I'm afraid that fellow Daoist Chen said this too early. Let's talk about it after you've really broken the sect protecting array!"

Right at this moment!

A burst of white light detonated and began to spread out at an extremely fast speed.

In the next moment, everyone looked in one direction at the same time.

The place where the light was emitted from was precisely the sect-protecting great formation. The golden light barrier, which had already dimmed a little, suddenly seemed as if it had been injected with a heart-strengthening needle.

With a buzz, the light was boundless.

The dazzling white light was like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, shooting toward the direction of the army of cultivators led by Chen Youliang.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Youliang's expression immediately changed greatly.

"Quickly retreat! All of you, retreat!"

In an instant, more than twenty rays of light flew into the sky.

The rest of the soldiers and cultivators who did not react in time received the baptism of the white light.

They only felt a powerful force rushing toward them, fiercely crashing into their bodies, sending everyone flying on the spot.

Blood dyed the ground red, and the soldiers who were sent flying by the white light spat out blood.

"Rumble!"

"Ow..."

"Ah-"

For a moment, howls rang out from the front gate of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect.

Before everyone could recover from the scene just now, an extremely majestic voice came from within the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect. Its aura surged, and it carried a terrifying soul suppressive force.

"Who are you? How dare you barge into my Blackheaven Sword Sect?"

That incomparably majestic voice was like rolling thunder, and it carried a terrifying might. Chen Youliang and the others in the sky looked towards the source of the voice in shock.

"Who dares to barge into my Blackheaven Sword Sect?"

That majestic voice sounded once again, striking at the hearts of everyone in the Great Qin Empire. Their hearts started to beat rapidly, and their souls felt as if they were about to be suffocated by the terrifying might contained within that voice!

"What's going on? Did the Grand Elder make a move?"

"That voice is clearly a woman's voice. It definitely can't be the Grand Elder."

"That's not right. This person's strength has most likely reached the legendary Ascension Realm."

Those from the mysterious heavenly sword sect who had yet to leave were completely dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

Following that, a beautiful young lady wearing a pink robe walked over.

Her whole body was emitting a strong aura fluctuation, and her whole body was surging with multicolored light, giving off a terrifying majesty.

Zhuang Changhe and those who had come in contact with the girl were all stunned.

Although they were very happy that someone had saved them, apart from being happy, they were also in disbelief.

"Eighth brother, I didn't see wrongly, right?"

"Sect master, that girl is a recently accepted disciple of the Sunset Peak. I think her name is Shen Yaoling."

When the eighth peak's Peak Master Li Gang heard Zhuang Changhe's mutter, he replied uncertainly.

Of course, Zhuang Changhe had seen Shen Yaoling before. At that time, he was the one who brought her to the Sunset Peak.

However, the mighty figure in front of him was so domineering that he could kill more than ten thousand nascent soul stage cultivators with a single move. Even those at the peak of the tribulation Transcension Realm had to temporarily avoid him. He really could not contact that playful girl from before.

He looked again.

After Shen Yaoling appeared, she flew directly to the area of the sky above the great formation.

Outside the mountain gate, more than half of the people brought by Chen Youliang had already been injured or killed, and the rest were all cultivators at the mastery stage or above.

Although the attack just now had caught them off guard, it still allowed them to escape a calamity.

As if she was not very satisfied with her performance, Shen Yaoling once again cast her gaze on the black-clothed old man.

"Old man, I see that your cultivation is not bad. Why don't you come and exchange a few moves with me?"

"As long as you defeat me, today's matter of intruding into my Blackheaven Sword Sect will be dropped. Otherwise, all of you can stay here!"

Chen Youliang's calm expression disappeared.

When they came, their imposing manner was like a rainbow, as if they had taken something from the bag. They expected that a small Blackheaven Sword Sect would not be able to stop the flood of cultivators from his army, so they had no choice but to obediently let him go.

However, the result was completely different from what they had imagined. Not only did they not successfully take the person away, but most of the people who came with them had died here.

Huff!

Chen Youliang took a deep breath and shook off the support of the black-clothed old man. His face was gloomy and uncertain.

He looked at the girl in front of him with a solemn expression.

"We came here only to pick up people. We had a conflict with your sect because we had no choice but to make this move. I hope that you will not take offense."

"Go away. I won't talk to you. You're too weak. Ask the old man behind you to stand up and fight with me."

Eh...

"Little Li Zi, who is this woman?"

"I can't see through her cultivation, but she should be the same person as the one who attacked the formation just now."

...
