"Hahaha! Come! Come, all of you!"
More and more Azure Cloud cultivators gathered until the very color of the sky could no longer be seen.
Above the entirety of Qilin Mountain, only the spiritual arts unleashed by the cultivators remained, and booming sounds echoed from all directions.
A great battle of this magnitude could only be withstood by the Azure Cloud Region Army in formation; ordinary cultivators below the Nascent Soul realm couldn't even get within 50 miles.
Lin Wudao, caught within this encirclement, laughed wildly. Perhaps it was another memory flooding into his mind, for his laughter abruptly turned into a pained scream, "Ah!!!"
After a pained scream, he once again scanned his surroundings. They were all just cultivators!
"So what if there are more of you below the Void Refining realm? Even if my Master from Azure Mist Mountain himself were to come, I would not have the slightest fear!
Today, I alone shall fight your entire Azure Cloud Region, and even the whole of Eternal Sun Prefecture! It will surely become a tale for the ages!"
Lin Wudao roared with laughter. The power surging through his body and his ever-strengthening physique left him utterly pleased with himself!
Of all these people who had come from Azure Cloud, aside from the few from the Li family, one of the Fox Clan, and Prince Feiheng, who could slightly affect him, the rest were all ants!
If not for that omnipresent person of black mist, whose killing power was so extreme, he feared he would have charged out of Qilin Mountain long ago and slaughtered every last one of them.
"Hahaha!"
The person of black mist took advantage of the moment Lin Wudao was once again afflicted by the memories, thrusting his spear deep into his chest. Yet Lin Wudao was still laughing loudly.
"You have a hundred schemes, you have the advantage of numbers, but so what?!! It's useless! My strength will only grow stronger and stronger!"
....
Another spear thrust pierced Lin Wudao's body, but Li Wei showed not a trace of joy.
The North Star Spirit-Breaking Spear... had been caught by Lin Wudao.
The vital essence from all over the world was still pouring into Lin Wudao's body. His physical form grew ever stronger, his spiritual power ever denser.
"Let's see how many more times you can pierce me!"
He unleashed a single, devastating blow!
Li Wei's body... shattered!
"Hahaha!"
Lin Wudao continued to laugh wildly.
The Spirit Qi in the sky gathered, and Li Wei's spirit tablet appeared.
He manifested in the world once more. Facing Lin Wudao's manic laughter and the sight of his ever-strengthening foe, the corners of Li Wei's own mouth turned slightly upwards into a smile.
"What are you smiling at?!!"
Sensing the smile and even the hint of joy on the face of this unkillable person of black mist, Lin Wudao couldn't help but be startled.
He casually slapped away the Heaven-Piercing Coffin that had just been kicked towards him again.
Pfft!
A single vine, erupting from the red leaf beside Li Yaowen's spirit tablet behind him, had suddenly... pierced straight through the abdomen of the person of black mist!
"This is..."
Lin Wudao's expression changed drastically. He recalled from his intelligence reports the strange spiritual formation the Li family had used on the border battlefield, a formation that condensed the power of everyone into the person of black mist.
"Is that the formation that can slay a Divinity Transformation expert from the peak of the Nascent Soul realm?!! It's useless! Within the Divinity Transformation realm, I am invincible! Even if a Void Refining master were to come, I would..."
His words were cut short.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
A series of soft, piercing sounds echoed as vine after vine materialized, piercing into the abdomens of every member of the Li family and dragging them all towards the sky.
And then... the vines pierced into the bodies of his avatars!
He discovered with horror that the vital essence being transmitted from all over the world had begun to flow into the bodies of the other Tian Xing avatars... and then, into the bodies of the Li family members.
On the ground below.
The scattered positions of the Li family descendants had, in fact, formed a spiritual formation, a formation that was, to him, terrifyingly familiar—
The Essence Harvesting Death Formation!
It was the very same formation that he, after ten thousand years of refinement, had used to absorb the vital essence of people from all over the world!
RUMBLE!
A peal of thunder echoed from the sky, originating from a red leaf that had risen to float in the air. Across the entire battlefield, leaves began to fall, swirling like crimson snow, and a red moon appeared in the sky.
The voice of Li Yaowen and an ancient voice from within the red leaf sounded one after another.
"Conceal Heaven—By my own technique, I hereby steal Fate!"
.....
"I see it now."
"I have heard it."
"The great formation is complete! Tian Xing, oh, Tian Xing, you stole the lives of all under Heaven, you painstakingly schemed for ten thousand years... and today, it all belongs to my clan!"
Stream after stream of vital essence formed into long pillars, splitting off and falling towards the bodies of Tian Xing's avatars.
The flow of vital essence was then intercepted, and like blood surging through veins, it poured into the bodies of the Li family members.
Lin Wudao's face was deathly pale. The Mark of Tian Xing, which had been concealed, reappeared upon his brow, flashing frantically!
"You dare?!!"
