Chapter 206 The war begins
For a moment, the entire Qingyun Mountain was immersed in an extremely tense atmosphere, as if even the air had frozen.
Whether it's the demonic path or the righteous path, both sides are fully prepared, and the tense atmosphere is like the oppressive, suffocating calm before a storm.
Just then, Ling Feng and the others had already secretly ascended Qingyun Mountain and cleverly concealed themselves in the shadows.
Thanks to Ling Feng's superb skills and unique techniques, they were able to perfectly conceal their presence, so that no one noticed their existence.
As the momentum of both sides continued to rise, gradually approaching the critical point of explosion, suddenly, a deafening roar came from somewhere on the demonic path:
"kill!"
Immediately afterwards, the demonic cultivators surged forward like a river bursting its banks, or like countless fish crossing a river, all vying to unleash their most powerful skills as they charged toward Tongtian Peak.
In an instant, all sorts of dazzling magical lights intertwined, like a breathtaking fireworks display blooming in the sky.
Leading the way were undoubtedly the leaders of the four demonic sects!
It should be understood that only those with unfathomable and extraordinary strength like them have the confidence and ability to withstand the renowned sect leader Dao Xuan and the heads of each peak of the Qingyun Sect.
Behind these sect leaders followed closely a large number of their sect elders and disciples.
At this moment, everyone in the Qingyun Sect, from Sect Leader Dao Xuan down, had their eyes firmly fixed on the approaching demonic forces.
Faced with such a large-scale attack from the demonic forces, everyone was solemn and ready for battle.
Just then, seeing that the demonic path had launched an attack, Dao Xuan immediately stopped hesitating and quickly began to form complex and mysterious hand seals while chanting incantations.
In an instant, the surrounding air seemed to be stirred by an invisible force, becoming heavy and oppressive.
Moments later, a shocking scene unfolded!
Suddenly, a great light shone brightly in the ancestral hall of the Qingyun Sect.
The light was dazzling and brilliant, like a blazing sun suddenly rising, so bright that it was almost impossible to look directly at it.
Immediately afterwards, a streak of light shot into the sky with lightning speed, like a shooting star streaking across the heavens, and flew into Dao Xuan's hand in an instant.
As the light gradually faded, people finally saw what Dao Xuan was holding in his hand—a long sword with an extremely ancient design.
The sword was covered with dense, obscure runes, and the hilt was inlaid with several gems that emitted a faint spiritual light. Although the sword looked old and simple, no one present, whether a member of the demonic path or a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, dared to show it any disrespect.
Because everyone knows very well that this sword is the "Zhu Xian Sword," the treasure of the Qingyun Sect that has been passed down for thousands of years!
The fame of this Zhuxian Sword has long been known throughout the entire Zhuxian world.
It is not only a divine weapon with endless power, but also a weapon that has been painstakingly refined by the Qingyun Ancestor, thus gaining extraordinary power and mysterious abilities.
In order to make the Zhuxian Sword play a more powerful role, the Qingyun Patriarch cleverly used his all-powerful abilities to carefully set up a magnificent array based on the seven majestic peaks of Qingyun Mountain.
This grand formation contains the most profound laws of heaven and earth, and its complexity is beyond imagination. Even the most outstanding cultivators would find it difficult to fathom all its mysteries.
This Zhuxian Sword became the key to unlocking this great formation.
Because the Immortal Slaughtering Sword is located at the core of the great formation, also known as the formation's eye, this great formation was given a name that shook the world—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.
However, as the saying goes, extremes meet, and this powerful Zhuxian Sword Formation has a fatal flaw.
That means the person in charge of this formation will face extremely high risks and may very well fall into a terrifying state of losing their mind.
The reason for this situation is that this Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation has gathered all the evil energy in the world.
These malevolent energies are filled with evil and rage; once unleashed, they erode the user's mind, causing them to lose their ability to control themselves.
For this reason, the Qingyun Sect usually does not easily use the Zhuxian Sword Formation unless it is a matter of life and death.
Because if the leader loses his mind, the consequences will be unimaginable.
They will completely lose their minds, becoming cold-blooded machines that only know how to kill in a frenzy, no longer distinguishing between friend and foe, and launching indiscriminate attacks on all life around them.
Once upon a time, the previous leader of Qingyun Sect resolutely used the Zhuxian Sword Formation in a great battle that concerned the life and death of the sect.
Unfortunately, he ultimately could not resist the corrosive influence of the malevolent energy and lost his mind.
At this moment, the current sect leader, Dao Xuan, noticed the former sect leader's unusual state and knew that if left unchecked, it would inevitably lead to disaster.
Yes, Dao Xuan had no choice but to make a painful decision and join forces with his junior brother Wan Jianyi to kill the previous sect leader who had lost his mind.
This incident caused a huge uproar, and Wan Jianyi was thus branded with the infamy of "betraying his master and ancestors."
To avoid the condemnation and pursuit of the world, Wan Jianyi chose to fake his death and escape, and then went into hiding, living a life of anonymity in the ancestral hall of the Qingyun Sect.
Without a doubt, the Zhuxian Sword Formation of the Qingyun Sect is worlds apart from the Zhuxian Sword Formation controlled by Ling Feng.
It should be noted that even though the Zhuxian Sword Formation in Ling Feng's hands is a defective product or a counterfeit, it is genuinely derived from the primordial world!
The Primordial World is a truly vast world, with a world level far exceeding that of the Jade Dynasty World.
The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation that Ling Feng possessed was one of the most top-tier formations, even in that fantastical prehistoric world.
Therefore, compared to this, the Zhuxian Sword Formation of the Qingyun Sect is simply incomparable.
However, at this moment, for Ling Feng, who was hiding in the shadows, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation was not the focus; the focus was on the Immortal Slaughtering Sword itself.
The moment Dao Xuan successfully summoned the legendary Immortal Execution Sword, Ling Feng's gaze immediately turned fervent.
The reason was simple: the sword he gripped tightly in his hand suddenly emitted a powerful, yearning energy.
Sensing the strange movement of the mysterious sword, Ling Feng understood that the world-renowned Zhuxian Sword before him was also part of the incomplete sword in his own possession.
It should be noted that even now, while this mysterious sword is still incomplete, its power is already astonishing.
If one day all the fragments could be collected, what kind of astonishing power would this sword unleash?
The thought filled Ling Feng with barely suppressed excitement. Regardless of the reason, he already considered the Immortal Execution Sword in Dao Xuan's hands as his for the taking, and he was determined to obtain it!
However, he did not act rashly at this moment, because the great battle between good and evil was imminent and could break out at any moment.
He knew that if he rashly rushed out to seize the legendary Immortal-Slaying Sword, it would definitely disrupt the progress of this crucial battle.
Therefore, after careful consideration, he decided to suppress his inner impulses and desires for the time being and patiently wait for the dust to settle in the battle between good and evil.
Then, when the time is right, we will seize the Immortal Execution Sword and take it for ourselves.
With his mind made up, Ling Feng's restless heart finally calmed down a little.
He stared intently at the land before him, which was about to be engulfed in war, quietly waiting for the thrilling battle between good and evil to begin.
Meanwhile, his gaze never left the "three little ones," and he secretly vowed in his heart:
If they encounter any misfortune or danger, I will not hesitate to step forward and lend a helping hand to repay their life-saving grace.
Time passed quietly, and before long, the demonic forces launched a fierce attack on Tongtian Peak with overwhelming momentum, like wolves and tigers.
In the blink of an eye, this group of vicious thugs had successfully reached the summit.
The righteous side, of course, was equally resolute and prepared for battle.
The moment the two sides met, without exchanging a single superfluous word, they instantly entered a fierce, life-or-death struggle.
Soldiers faced soldiers, generals faced generals, and they fought each other in pairs. The whole scene was chaotic yet orderly.
