Chapter 996: The final battle arrives, Desperate situation

The moment this news spread, it immediately caused huge waves in the Thirteen States of Jianxuan Great World. Countless cultivators were horrified and swarmed toward the Ancient Xuan ruins.

Even on the many ancient warships of the Upper Realm hovering outside the sky, many cultivators received the news and immediately went to report it, ready to move. As for how this news came out, no one was paying attention to it.

All eyes were focused on the Ancient Xuan ruins.

If there was really Mirror Lake in the Ancient Xuan ruins, then no matter if it was the cultivators of the Jianxuan world or the army of the Upper Realm, they would send out their most powerful forces to snatch it.

For the Jianxuan Great World, everyone’s last hope was hidden in Mirror Lake.

In the eyes of the cultivators in the Upper Realm, the Mirror Lake was likely to contain the origin of the world, and it was an opportunity for many Enlightened beings to step further.

For a moment, the Jianxuan Great World was in turmoil. Many ancient warships broke through and rushed to the Ancient Xuan ruins.

Many forces in the Thirteen States also dispatched troops to rush there, and they were bound to protect this place as soon as possible.

The flames of war in various places were burning more and more fiercely, too many cultivators and creatures were destroyed in it. The battle between the two worlds had reached the most critical step.

“Who the hell leaked the news about this place?”

“This is great. The entire Thirteen States have been alarmed. When the time comes, everyone will come here. Who knows if there will be any accidents?”

When they heard about this, Yi Jianxian and the others who were the first to arrive at the Ancient Xuan ruins looked very unhappy.

None of them knew what had happened to cause the news of this place to spread, resulting in such a big response.

Originally, they planned to find Mirror Lake in secret, and then awaken the Will of Heaven sleeping in it, so as to force back the army of the Upper Realm. But after the news of this place came out, the Upper Realm army would definitely not sit still.

In this way, there would be many accidents and things would become much more troublesome.

“Maybe someone else deduced something, but I haven’t found any trace of Mirror Lake after searching for several days. If there are more people, there may be some unexpected discoveries,” Snow Sword Immortal said softly.

Her words were accepted by many people. If it weren’t for the signs of divination showing this place, they would almost doubt whether Mirror Lake was there or not.

After searching for several days, there was no result at all. If it were the rest of the people, they probably would have given up long ago.

“What I’m worried about now is, if Mr. Gu finds out about this matter, will he think that we did not treat him sincerely?” A Sword Immortal said with a little worry.

For them, Gu Changge was an absolute benefactor. He not only told them the way to fight against the creatures from beyond the sky but also never made it difficult for them.

In the end, they were still wary of Gu Changge, secretly hiding this matter from him, and came here to look for Mirror Lake.

“As far as his status is concerned, he shouldn’t care about such things.” Snow Sword Immortal shook her head lightly and added, but there was still unconcealable worry on her face under the mask.

It was foreseeable that they would definitely fight with the powerhouses of those forces of the Upper Realm. The most powerful people had never come here because they were afraid of the power of this world.

However, on the day of the Shu Sect’s incident, the incarnation of the Will of Heaven that suddenly appeared was torn apart by Gu Changge, and the resistance of this area was obviously much weaker. If those strongest people took the risk, they could definitely come here.

“At that time, a fierce battle may be inevitable, and maybe all of us will die here.” Yi Jianxian also knew about Snow Sword Immortal’s worry, and couldn’t help sighing.

For the next few days, the entire Jianxuan Great World was in a state of boiling unrest.

Countless cultivators rushed to the place where the Ancient Xuan Temple was located. On every mountain range, figures could be seen appearing with the sword in hand.

In the beginning, it was casual cultivators from all over the Thirteen States. But in the end, almost every force brought their most powerful background, and they knew that an unimaginable battle would break out there. There were no eggs left in the nest.

So they were all trying their best to do something in this battle.

Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and others also gave up their plan to continue searching for Mirror Lake. They were here to wait for the powerhouses from all regions of the Thirteen States.

Some old Sword Immortals who had retired for a long time finally showed their faces and did not continue to hide.

“The final decisive battle is about to break out here, and if we are swept into it, I am afraid, we will be smashed to pieces.”

People from the Southern Ming Dynasty also arrived, and Princess Xuandie, the second most beautiful woman in the Southern State, was among them.

She was wearing a light-colored long dress, seemingly tall and slender with blue hair like a waterfall. A white and delicate complexion, and condensed eyes, like a pool of autumn water. Her black eyebrows were slightly furrowed, making people intoxicated and wanting to be soothed. She had an appearance that could bring disaster to the country and the people were extremely touching.

She was also accompanied by Ah Qing and many others from younger generations. These were leading figures in the current generation of the Jianxuan Great World. The most powerful people had already reached the Seventh level, and they were likely to enter the Sword Immortal level in the future, and could be said to have a bright future.

It was one of the young men who spoke now. Dressed in purple, with a handsome face and extraordinary conversation, many young women around him faintly admired him.

This person was Chen Li, the head of the four Sword Masters, and his grandfather was a veteran Sword Immortal with extremely terrifying strength.

“Death is unavoidable. For the future of Jianxuan World, we must come here.” Princess Xuandie sighed softly.

“If there is any danger in a while, I will protect you. I have a lot of life-saving measures that my grandfather bestowed on me.” Hearing this, Chen Li smiled slightly and comforted her.

It was no secret that his grandfather was a Sword Immortal. How could the life-saving thing he bestowed be simple?

So hearing this, everyone seemed extremely envious of his words. Many young women were eager to even replace Princess Xuandie. The people knew that Chen Li had always been pursuing Princess Xuandie, but the flowing water was intentional and the falling flower was ruthless.

Now that the Jianxuan Great World was facing a catastrophe, as the leader of the younger generation, he had many more opportunities to approach Princess Xuandie.

“There’s no need for that, when you encounter danger, Brother Chen should focus on saving his own life, Xuandie is not worthy of your protection.” Princess Xuandie shook her head lightly, politely rejecting Chen Li’s offer.

The smile on Chen Li’s face froze a bit, but he recovered quickly. He continued, “Once a great battle breaks out here, even a Sword Immortal is not sure that he can save his own life. Xuandie, you still have to be careful.”

“I understand, so brother Chen shouldn’t worry.” Princess Xuandie nodded, her attitude seemed very indifferent.

Even though Chen Li’s mind was not shallow, and his emotions and anger were invisible, after being rejected by Princess Xuandie in this way, he still looked a bit ugly.

Fortunately, the few people beside him saw this and hurriedly spoke up to change the subject.

“Young master Chen is extremely powerful. If you give it another few hundred years, you will definitely be able to enter the ranks of Sword Immortals…”

“After solving the disaster of the extraterrestrial demons, it won’t take long for Mr. Chen to become the number one person in my Jianxuan world!”

Several people kept talking, and their words were full of flattery, which made Chen Li’s complexion much better.

Although Princess Xuandie had a neutral attitude toward him now. But he believed that when the final battle came, the Southern Ming Dynasty would be destroyed sooner or later without Sword Immortals.

Then, Princess Xuandie would beg him. And just when all the younger generations from Jianxuan Great World gathered here. Above the sky in the distance, there were several shocking sword auras.

The leader was an extremely tall and tough old man, dressed in purple, with a long sword on his back, with wisps of sword intent lingering, his strength was terrifying.

“Grandpa, are you here?” The moment Chen Li saw this person, his eyes also showed joy, and he couldn’t help but shout.

This person was his grandfather, Chen Bei Li, known as the Bei Li Divine Sword.

He used to fight against enemies from all directions with his Bei Li Divine Sword in one hand, but he never found an opponent. Even his great apprentice stepped into the half-step Sword Immortal level.

Princess Xuandie, Ah Qing, and the others also looked at the old man with slightly condensed expressions. Even Yi Jianxian, the current master of the Shu Sect, was once taught by this old man.

“This is Bei Li Sword Immortal, and his old man has come out of seclusion…” There was quite a commotion here. Many people cheered up, looking at this former legendary figure.

Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and others in the distance also had to come to greet him in person, showing great respect for this old man. However, after Bei Li Sword Immortal came here, he didn’t greet many Sword Immortals but looked at his beloved grandson.

“I said that this place is very dangerous, but you insist on coming here, if something happens, who will pass on the old man’s inheritance?”

Although he had a reproachful tone, what he showed was concern and worry.

Hearing this, Chen Li said with a solemn expression, “Grandpa, as the leader of the younger generation in the Jianxuan world, how can I shrink back and humiliate my old man’s face in such a crisis?”

What he said was awe-inspiring, and his face was extremely serious, which made many people admire him.

Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and others also felt admiration in their hearts; he was worthy of being the head of the four Sword Masters of Jianxuan.

“Oh, the child is grown up, and he doesn’t listen to the old man anymore…” Bei Li Sword Immortal seemed to shake his head helplessly, but there was satisfaction in his words.

Then, he suddenly changed his voice, looked at Princess Xuandie on the other side, and said calmly, “In such a troubled world, it’s good for young people to get along with each other more. It’s better to get closer. You should let go of the usual arrogance.”

Chen Bei Li knew his grandson quite well, knowing that he had a crush on Princess Xuandie. But seeing Princess Xuandie’s attitude just now made him really dissatisfied.

She was not as good as Chen Li in terms of family background, and even worse in terms of talent. Why was she so proud?

Princess Xuandie didn’t expect that Bei Li Sword Immortal would say this to herself at this time, and her complexion turned slightly pale. The people from the Southern Ming Dynasty behind her also looked a little pale, with fear in their eyes, and they dared not speak much.

An old Sword Immortal was right in front of them, even if it was Yi Jianxian, Snow Sword Immortal, and others, they were also his descendants.

In the small Southern Ming Dynasty, there was no Sword Immortal sitting on the throne, so how could it have the confidence to talk back in front of him?

“Senior, Xuandie has remembered what you taught me.” Princess Xuan Die’s face turned pale and she said in a low voice.

She originally wanted to ask Master Snow Sword Immortal for help, but thinking that Snow Sword Immortal had also been instructed by this person when she took the last step, she might not be able to come forward, so she could only lower her head and answer in a low voice.

The status of a princess was useless in this place. She was full of grievances in her heart, she didn’t have the slightest thought for Chen Li, he was stalking her hard, could it be wrong for her to refuse?

Just because his grandfather was a veteran Sword Immortal.

For some reason, Princess Xuandie suddenly thought of a figure in white at this moment. Even though his strength had reached the invincible level of sweeping the world, he was still as gentle as jade and approachable.

“Xuandie doesn’t like Chen Li, and she already has a sweetheart.”

Ah Qing, who had been watching all this coldly, suddenly said, which made the complexions of several people here change a little, and Chen Li’s complexion suddenly became ugly.

Princess Xuandie widened her beautiful eyes in shock. Bei Li Sword Immortal obviously didn’t expect that someone would dare to stand up and disobey him at this time.

With a gloomy face, he looked at Ah Qing who was talking, and said, “Oh, I want to know, who else can be better than my grandson?”

Ah Qing’s slender eyebrows frowned when she heard this, and she just opened her mouth. And at this moment, there was a sudden tremor in the sky in the distance.

All the cultivators here had a feeling that their souls were being suppressed, they could hardly move, and they felt chills all over their bodies.

“That is…”

“The extraterrestrial demons are coming here!” Someone’s voice was trembling, filled with fear, and saw the scene in the distance.

Rumble!!

It was a dark cloud of magic, constantly rolling over, covering everything.

The ancient warship hovering outside the sky rumbled down like a majestic ancient continent with a majestic momentum, surrounded by various pools of laws and chaotic energy, radiant and frightening.

The terrifying army of extraterrestrial demons finally descended on this place, covering thousands of miles of void around the Ancient Xuan ruins, casting black shadows one after another.

On these ancient warships, there stood many terrifying ghostly shadows, surrounded by thick fog. They were tall, silent, extremely indifferent, sweeping across the broken walls and ruins below, without making a sound.

But the deterrence brought by them was terrifying and huge, making everyone in the Jianxuan Great World shudder and fear. Even Yi Jianxian and the others felt apprehensive and numb.

Although the strength of these terrifying phantoms was not as good as that of the Sword Immortal, they had definitely reached the Ninth level.

They were invincible!

But the frightening thing was that there were too many of these figures, and just standing in the sky would bring great fear to people. They didn’t know at all whether there were other, more terrifying existences standing behind these figures.

“To this day, the final battle with this group of extraterrestrial demons is probably inevitable.”

A Sword Immortal with a white beard said with a serious expression.

At this moment, too many people had already come to the Ancient Xuan ruins, and all of them watched this scene with incomparable fear, trembling to the extreme. Their faces were pale, faintly showing despair.
