Terran Guardian - Chapter 3945

Chapter 3921 You wicked beast, how dare you be so insolent!

With the death of the Demon King,

the demon beasts immediately lost control. Their

previously orderly ranks scattered.

In an instant,

the pressure on the Xuanji Immortal Sect was greatly reduced.

Venerable Luo Tian scanned the area with his divine sense, confirming the Demon King was dead, before attacking the remaining demon beasts.

With the Xuanqiong Immortal Sword in hand, Venerable Luo Tian’s strength was enough to rival even a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.

Thus,

the other demon beasts were naturally no match.

The few remaining Half-Saint demon beasts were all at the Third or Fourth Tribulation level, making them difficult for ordinary cultivators to contend with.

Yet, before Venerable Luo Tian, they were utterly annihilated in moments.

The physical bodies of the Half-Saint demon beasts could not

withstand the sharpness of a Ninth-Rank Innate Emperor Weapon.

With the fall of all the Half-Saint demon beasts, the demon calamity was quelled in less than half a day.

Looking around the Xuanji Immortal Sect, it was stained with blood.

Numerous corpses lay scattered, some belonging to demon beasts, others to Xuanji Immortal Sect cultivators.

“Keep a close eye on the movements of the Chaotic Void Sea. Now that the calamity has erupted, see how the other forces are faring!”

Venerable Luo Tian calmly ordered the numerous sect elders.

But just then,

Venerable Luo Tian’s expression shifted slightly, and a jade talisman appeared in his hand.

The next instant,

his expression turned much uglier.

“What happened?”

Venerable Jiu Yue noticed the change in his expression and immediately asked.

“The Crossing Calamity Realm has been attacked by calamity beasts, and I’ve heard that there are quite a few semi-saint calamity beasts among them. I’m afraid these beasts are heading for the Immortal Mine of Longevity!”

Venerable Luo Tian said slowly, his expression grim.

His words caused Venerable Jiu Yue’s face to change.

“The Immortal Mine of Longevity… Impossible! Aren’t those things mainly made from the flesh and blood of living beings? How could the Immortal Mine of Longevity be of any use to them!”

It was no secret that calamity beasts fed on flesh and blood.

But the idea that the Immortal Mine of Longevity would be useful to calamity beasts was something Venerable Jiu Yue couldn’t understand.

Venerable Luo Tian said, “It’s true that the evil beasts feed on flesh and blood, but the Evil King is different.

As far as I know, the Evil King possesses the characteristics of an evil beast and can cultivate like an ordinary person. The Longevity Immortal Mine is extraordinary to it.

Moreover, that Longevity Immortal Mine is the burial place of a Great Sage, and it should not be underestimated.

I suspect that the Evil Beasts attacking the Tribulation Realm are also being manipulated by the Evil King behind the scenes.

Otherwise, with so many cultivators in the Chaotic Void Sea, it wouldn’t make sense for these evil beasts to target only the Tribulation Realm!”

The more cultivators there are, the greater the attraction for evil beasts.

After all, the flesh and blood of living beings have an irresistible allure for them.

But now,

the siege of the Tribulation Realm by evil beasts is unusual in itself.

After all, there aren’t many cultivators in the Tribulation Realm, and it’s easy to understand that the Evil King must be secretly directing this.

“Right now, Fellow Daoist Qingyao is in charge of guarding the sect. Fellow Daoist Jiuyue will accompany me to the Tribulation Realm!”

Venerable Luo Tian quickly ordered.

The Crossing Tribulation Realm cannot be lost, and the Longevity Immortal Mine must never fall into the hands of the Demon King.

The resources represented by this immortal mine are of paramount importance to the Xuanji Immortal Sect.

Since the mining of this Longevity Immortal Mine began, in just twenty million years, the Xuanji Immortal Sect’s strength has increased significantly.

In particular, the large quantity of Longevity Immortal Stones is enough to extend the lifespan of many Immortal Emperors and provide for the cultivation needs of Half-Saints.

Although

no Half-Saints have yet emerged from the Xuanji Immortal Sect, this is due to the limitations of the Heavenly Dao.

When the next great calamity arrives, the Xuanji Immortal Sect is expected to produce one or two more Longevity Half-Saints.

If the Longevity Immortal Mine is lost, the Xuanji Immortal Sect will have lost a great opportunity.

Therefore—

no matter what,

the Longevity Immortal Mine must absolutely not be lost.

…

Just as the Xuanji Immortal Sect made its move, a large number of demonic beasts poured into the Crossing Tribulation Realm, causing chaos.

Many mine slaves and cultivators responsible for guarding the Crossing Tribulation Realm were now fighting with all their might to resist the demonic calamity.

In the void.

Chang Geng, the Demon God, was dressed in pristine white robes. His dark golden eyes, though indifferent, held a faint but palpable killing intent. With a flick of his finger, he shattered the void, instantly slaying a top-tier Immortal Emperor-level demonic beast.

Then,

he looked towards the other battlefields, his heart sinking slightly.

“A demonic calamity!”

Chang Geng, the Demon God, wasn’t fully aware of the outbreak of the demonic calamity, as he had always remained in the Tribulation Realm and knew little about the outside world.

Only now, with the demonic beasts invading the Tribulation Realm, had he come to his senses.

Currently , there were

numerous

demonic beasts. There were no fewer than a dozen at the semi-saint level alone.

Some of these semi-saint demonic beasts even made Chang Geng’s heart tremble.

Such powerful beings were definitely beyond his ability to handle.

If the Tribulation Realm truly fell, he naturally wouldn’t fight to the death here.

Therefore,

observing the current situation, Chang Geng, the Demon God, felt a slight urge to retreat, but even so, he didn’t show it outright.

After all, news of the demonic beast invasion had already reached the Chaotic Void Sea.   Reinforcements should arrive

soon .   If they arrive in time, then the Chang Geng Demon God naturally has no need to withdraw.   The Longevity Immortal Mine in the Tribulation Crossing Realm must not be abandoned unless absolutely necessary.   Such immortal resources are of great significance.   But if reinforcements don’t arrive, then there’s nothing more to say.   Ultimately,   given the importance of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, the Chaotic Void Sea couldn’t possibly remain completely unresponsive once news of the demonic beast invasion spread.   If reinforcements from the Chaotic Void Sea don’t arrive, it can only mean one thing:   the situation in the Chaotic Void Sea is dire, and many forces are struggling to survive.   Otherwise,   they would never ignore the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

At this moment—

time passed slowly, and the fighting in the Tribulation Realm intensified. Numerous mine slaves perished one after another. Although the number of demonic beasts killed was even greater, the latter seemed endless, impossible to eradicate.

Among the many demonic beasts, one stood still, its scarlet eyes chillingly cold as it silently stared at the battlefield ahead.

“It is said that the Tribulation Realm contains the tomb of a former Great Sage, nurturing the Immortal Mine of Longevity. Such a treasure should naturally belong to me—”

Li You murmured to himself, as information about this Immortal Mine of Longevity surfaced in his mind.

His purpose in attacking the Tribulation Realm was naturally for the Immortal Mine of Longevity.

Not long ago,

he devoured a cultivator, searching their soul, and finally learned about the Tribulation Realm.

Li

You remained unmoved, not letting the other demonic kings know of this, but secretly mobilizing numerous demonic beasts to directly attack the Tribulation Realm.

What he wanted to do was to take over the Tribulation Realm before the other demonic kings could react.

At that time, with the power of the Great Sage’s Tomb and the Immortal Mine of Longevity, Li You was confident he could advance further.

The reason he didn’t say it

was simple.

After all, who wouldn’t be tempted by such an opportunity?

Even among the Demon Kings, there was infighting.

Although the Great Demon’s order prevented many Demon Kings from disobeying and fighting amongst themselves, if an opportunity like the Immortal Mine of Longevity were presented, the other Demon Kings would certainly not remain indifferent.

Currently,

in the Tribulation Crossing Realm,

the number of Half-Saints guarding it is greater than Li You had anticipated.

But as things stand, the odds of victory are on his side.

Although there are many Half-Saints in the Tribulation Crossing Realm, his side has even more Half-Saint Demon Beasts. Not to mention the numerous Demon Beasts present, suppressing the Tribulation Crossing Realm is naturally not a problem.

Even so, Li You didn’t personally

take action. This was naturally for safety.

He was indeed a Demon King, and his strength had reached the Half-Saint level, but there were currently several Half-Saints in the Tribulation Crossing Realm whose strength could threaten him.

Therefore…

Li You naturally saw no need to take the risk.

He was waiting.

He would wait for the other demonic beasts to deal with these cultivators before making his move to reap the benefits.

“Boom—”

The void trembled, and the illusory image of the Great Dao fell down. This extraordinary phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of many cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

When they looked in the direction of the ripples from the phenomenon, they saw Xiao Yangzi, the Supreme Elder of the Void Sword Sect, being brutally devoured by several half-saint demonic beasts. His body was mangled beyond recognition, half of his head had been gnawed away, and the remaining eye was still wide open, revealing a fear that had not yet fully coalesced.

“Pfft!”

In the next instant, a demonic beast devoured the remaining half of his head, and blood splattered everywhere.

The other cultivators who saw this scene felt a chill run down their spines.

Although Xiao Yangzi’s strength was not the strongest in the Tribulation Crossing Realm, he was still a powerful expert who had reached the third tribulation half-saint realm.

But now…

Even a powerful figure like Xiao Yangzi has perished here, and in such a tragic way. How could this not horrify the other cultivators?

Immediately

, a half-saint, unable to suppress his fear, attempted to flee the Tribulation Realm.

Unfortunately

for him, Li You was prepared. The instant the opponent fled, he activated his divine sense, and several half-saint beasts attacked simultaneously, intercepting him.

In less than a moment, this half-saint was in grave danger, on the verge of death.

But just then,

a furious voice rang out.

“You beast, how dare you be so insolent!!”

Before the words had even finished, a magnificent sword aura swept across billions of miles of void, like an unparalleled celestial river stretching across the sky. The surging river engulfed all the beasts it touched, then utterly shredded and annihilated them.

Some half-saint beasts tried to dodge, but their bodies were pierced by this sword aura, all their life force extinguished in an instant.

“Boom—”

The vast Crossing Calamity Realm seemed to be cleaved in two by this sword. The supreme sword dao rules suppressed everything, and countless evil beasts perished on the spot. Li You, who

had been hiding in the shadows, changed his expression drastically upon seeing this scene, his eyes filled with horror.

The next moment,

the void seemed to shatter like a mirror, and a Taoist in green robes walked through the air. He had a lean face, but his eyes were as sharp as a hawk’s, his expression was cold, and a powerful aura emanated from him, enough to suppress everything.

“Sect Master!”

Jiang Hanfeng’s face immediately showed relief upon seeing the newcomer.

If Jian Chen had arrived even a moment later, he would probably have followed in Xiao Yangzi’s footsteps.

With Jian Chen’s arrival, the other cultivators in the Crossing Calamity Realm also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In their view, although the evil beasts attacking the Crossing Calamity Realm were strong, they were not necessarily a match for this Sect Master of the Lingxi Sword Sect.

After all—

the strength of an Eighth Tribulation Half-Saint is not something everyone can contend with. (End of Chapter)
