#928 - The end of the world is coming!
As time passed, the continent that had initially appeared in the void to the east of the Immortal Execution Dynasty grew increasingly dark.
The aura of darkness there surged like a tide, constantly churning and rushing.
That continent did not belong to this world; it was located in a different space-time.
The deepest part of the continent connected to the darkness, and the continent was surrounded by what seemed like a river of void, separating it from this world.
However, to this day, no dark creatures had yet appeared.
“Lord Monarch!”
Jun Wuxie’s Starry Sky Rune Communicator rang, and the voices of Qing Yushang, the Master of the Myriad Wonders Pavilion, and the Great Ancestor of the Starry Sky Ancient Road Headquarters came from within: “The darkness has invaded! Dark armies have appeared at the node points of various Starry Sky passages! These are the images sent by the guardian alliances of the ancient stars where those nodes are located!”
Jun Wuxie’s expression turned solemn. He opened the images they sent, revealing a boundless dark army.
The heavens and earth there were submerged in the aura of darkness, obscuring the sky and sun, making the world pitch black. If not for the guardian cities radiating light, one would not be able to see their own fingers.
The dark legions wore jet-black armor, wielding black battle shields and spears, running like beasts, their eyes filled with madness and brutality, charging towards the cities amidst the sound of horns.
The defending soldiers, led by semi-sage experts, fought fiercely with the dark army, blood and flesh flying everywhere.
The scene was extremely tragic, with shouts of battle, roars of anger, and screams of agony rising and falling.
Jun Wuxie saw that the soldiers and semi-sage experts of the guardian alliances, when facing the darkness, although showing brief moments of fear on their faces, were quickly replaced by a determination to die for their cause.
They followed the semi-sage experts, charging forward and engaging in intense melee combat with the dark army.
Many soldiers were covered in wounds, pierced by dark battle spears, and corroded by the ultimate dark curse. Before their minds were lost, they frantically pounced on the dark army, hugging them tightly, biting their throats, and then self-detonating their celestial passages.
“Come on, this old man isn’t afraid of you, hahaha!”
In the images, an alliance general waved his battle halberd, charging and slashing madly.
His eyes were bloodshot, and red hairs pierced through his skin, being corroded by the curse. The pain his body endured twisted his features, but he still roared madly, sweeping the battle halberd in all directions.
He was struck by a dark creature's battle spear in the battle, his armor shattered, riddled with holes, and countless wounds all over his body.
After a round of fighting, he was already on the verge of collapse, and the corrosion of the curse was about to devour his will.
“Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!”
At the moment his will vanished, he charged towards the densest part of the nearby dark army, self-detonating his celestial passage. His entire body instantly exploded, and the violent true energy surged out, blasting a large area of the dark army into pieces.
“Lord Monarch…”
Qing Yushang and the Great Ancestor and others did not hear Jun Wuxie's response for a long time and could not help but call out in the communicator.
“I’m here…”
Jun Wuxie's fingers trembled slightly. He clicked to close the image and said, “Tell the Alliance Guardian Army that if things become impossible, quickly retreat to the Emperor Beginning Star Region!”
“Understood!”
Qing Yushang and the others cut off the rune communicator.
They knew that the Alliance Army would definitely not be able to hold on. There were too many dark armies at those nodes. Just with the current wave of invasion, each invasion point had hundreds of millions of them.
Jun Wuxie came out of the Bronze Ancient Palace and summoned Qingyue, giving her the formations he had made these days, saying, “Quickly send them to the front line of defense, so that when the battle breaks out, they can use this formation to gather the souls of those who died in battle on our side, preserve them well, and not allow any loss!”
Qingyue nodded and left with the formations.
Jun Wuxie looked to the east, where the aura of darkness enveloped the entire continent, but no dark creatures were to be seen, and they had not yet crossed over.
The darkness had already caused such a scene before crossing over. How fierce would it be when they crossed over?
The Emperor Beginning Star was indeed the main battlefield of the dark invasion!
He came to the outside of the eastern city wall of the capital and set up a formation to condense souls here. Then, he turned around and looked towards the city, his voice like a bell: “My soldiers and civilians of the Immortal Execution Dynasty, the torrent of the apocalypse has come, and darkness is about to invade. I know you will be afraid, but fear will not solve any problems! Dark creatures want to exterminate our race. What should we do?”
“Kill the darkness, kill, kill, kill!”
Tens of millions of soldiers of the Black Armored Army shook the sky with their voices, raising their Black Armored Shields and Mo Sabers, their fighting spirit boiling, and their killing intent soaring!
“The torrent of the apocalypse may kill many people, whether it is you or me, but there is only one path in front of us: to fight the darkness to the last moment! I, Jun Wuxie, hereby swear that as long as I am still alive, I will definitely awaken all the sacrificed heroes from the Nine Netherworlds in the future, bring you back to the human world, and follow me to continue our glory, fight the darkness, and create a bright and peaceful world for ourselves, for our loved ones, and for our future generations!”
“We will forever follow Lord Monarch, without regrets even in death, and will not return until the darkness is destroyed!”
“Will not return until the darkness is destroyed!”
… …
The Black Armored Army raised their shields and shouted loudly, and the people of the dynasty were also infected by this emotion, shouting along. The passion and belief in everyone's hearts were completely ignited at this moment.
“Hahaha! You think you can protect a prosperous and peaceful world with just you?”
A gloomy voice came from within the Dragon Ridge Mountains. The coldness of that voice made people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, as if a cold wind was drilling into their bones.
Jun Wuxie turned around abruptly, seeing a certain area of the Dragon Ridge Mountains where a monstrous yin energy was surging upwards and spreading rapidly.
A huge dharma form emerged from that yin energy, and two cold eyes pierced through the sky, overlooking the Immortal Execution Dynasty.
“Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain!”
Jun Wuxie's pupils shrank slightly. He did not expect the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain to appear at this time.
And looking at the speed at which the yin mist was spreading, it was extraordinary.
He saw the Yin Spirit Mountain moving, rapidly approaching the dynasty, causing the yin mist to spread and arrive at the area outside the dynasty's city walls in an instant.
“Boy, you insignificant ant, you ruined this seat’s plans back then, causing this seat to fail to complete its mission! But now, my world has opened a passage, and your doomsday has arrived!”
Rumble!
As the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain's voice fell, countless figures rushed out of the Yin Spirit Mountain, a dense mass of Yin Spirit Army, looking like locusts attacking from afar.
“Black Armored Army, maintain formation!”
Ji Yinlan stood in the sky above the city wall, commanding with a frosty expression, waving the bright red Immortal Execution Battle Flag in her hand.
The Black Armored Army soldiers and generals all used the battle flag as a signal, quickly forming a battle formation, and there were even continuous rapid-firing rune crossbowmen waiting in strict formation, quickly loading the crossbow bolts onto the rapid-firing rune crossbows, and the runes on each crossbow lit up.
“You think you can stop my Yin Domain's vast Yin Spirit Army with just your mere Black Armored Army? You are daydreaming!”
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain walked out of the Yin Spirit Mountain, followed by thousands of experts whose realms were extremely high, but were suppressed to the peak of the Extreme Celestial Position Realm.
“The Black Armored Army slaughtering your Yin Spirit Army is just using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. You Yin Spirits who can't see the light of day, today we will use you to boost morale!”
Jun Wuxie stepped out of the city, not allowing anyone else to follow.
He walked in the air, and a true lotus blooming with solar true fire rushed out of the top of his head, with several rounds of great suns in the lotus plate.
The solar true lotus flew to the sky above the dynasty's city walls, floating within the barrier. As it swayed, its light was boundless, dispelling all the yin mist that was rushing in.
“You are boasting shamelessly. If it weren't for the suppression of order, any of my subordinates could crush you as easily as crushing an ant!”
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain stood at the rear, directing his subordinate experts to charge towards Jun Wuxie.
Those Yin Spirit experts, each wearing gray armor and wielding a battle spear, charged over.
“Then let’s see who is the ant!”
Jun Wuxie clenched his palm, and the dragon roared through the mountains and rivers. The Dragon Cry Battle Spear appeared in his hand, and a azure dragon shuttled around the spear shaft.
“Clang!”
He held the Dragon Cry and charged towards the thousands of Yin Spirit experts, the boiling golden blood energy shaking away all the yin mist. The Dragon Cry in his hand swept and killed with him, like a tiger in a flock of sheep.
Puff!
His speed was too fast. With one stab, more than a dozen Yin Spirit experts on that straight line failed to dodge and were directly pierced through. The spear shaft vibrated, their armor shattered, and their bodies burst open.
In the next moment, they were devoured into the celestial passage by the suction force of Jun Wuxie's Destiny Star.
Bang!
Countless Yin Spirit battle spears stabbed at his body, causing the golden blood energy circle to tremble slightly, but failing to break through the defense.
Puff!
The Dragon Cry swept across, and the spear tip cut across all directions, as if the spear light instantly cut heaven and earth apart.
In that area, hundreds of Yin Spirit experts were cut in half at the waist.
This kind of divine bravery made those Yin Spirit experts feel terrified!
They were all in the quasi-mythical realm, but they were being treated like cutting vegetables. When did such a terrifying figure appear in this world?
“It seems that this seat has to personally kill you!”
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain took a step across the sky from behind, the armor on his body lit up, and a pair of gray iron gauntlets appeared on his hands, flashing with blazing rune light, and punched to kill.
Rumble!
Jun Wuxie waved his fist to meet it. At the moment the two fists collided, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
The energy aftermath, like a raging tide in the sea, surged out, sweeping across the universe.
Thousands of Yin Spirit experts were all terrified and retreated one after another. Some who did not dodge in time and failed to escape the coverage of the aftermath were hit and flew out on the spot, their armor shattered, their bones broken, and their internal organs spewing out.
“Ant, if it weren't for this seat's poor physical condition back then, how could you reptiles have left alive?”
With one punch, Jun Wuxie took a few steps back slightly, but the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain remained motionless.
“Your talent and growth realm are indeed amazing, but it's a pity that you are ultimately an ant from the lower realm. Today, this master will cut off your head and capture your daughter, stripping her of the Hongmeng source!”
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain was incomparably powerful, striding forward, the yin energy obscuring the sky and sun, spreading madly, covering the entire sky above the dynasty.
"You bastard! I'll kill you within three moves!"
Jun Wuxie was enraged by his words. This Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain still wanted to sacrifice his daughter even now!
But this also shows that the world passage they opened seems less than ideal, otherwise, why would they be like this?
Just look at the talent and growth intensity of those Yin Spirit powerhouses, all of them are Quasi-Myth realm. Except for the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain, none of them are in the Myth realm, which is enough to explain the problem.
The world passage opened by the Yin Domain's firmament cannot allow Yin Spirits in the Myth realm to cross over.
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain left the Yin Domain's firmament a long time ago, lurking in the special space-time between this world and the Yin Domain's firmament, and did not cross over.
It is estimated that for a long time before, his body was in a special state, unable to exert its true strength. His talent growth realm was greatly affected, and he only recently recovered.
Jun Wuxie stepped forward, and his aura instantly soared. The Taiji Star Sea and Primordial Disassembly were activated together.
The moment his fist was thrown, it was like a dazzling sun blooming, carrying vast divine power to blast forward.
The 'Fight' word incantation also triggered a tenfold attack effect at this moment!
A four hundred and fifty-fold increase!
In the midst of a loud noise, his fist collided with the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain's fist again.
This time, the blazing runes on the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain's gauntlet shattered in an instant, constantly collapsing.
Crack!
Divine power penetrated the gauntlet, shattering the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain's hand bones, and shattering his entire arm, causing him to let out a miserable cry.
"Hundreds of times the increase, how did you do it? This is impossible!"
The Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain exclaimed, unable to believe it. How could a human cultivator at the peak of the Half-Sage realm withstand such a terrifying increase!
Some bloodlines with extremely strong bodies can reach this level with extreme sublimation, regardless of the consequences. But this kid in front of him is extremely calm and relaxed, not in a state of extreme sublimation at all. Even a body refiner shouldn't be able to do this!
Boom!
Responding to him was Jun Wuxie's tyrannical fist mark, like a great sun blasting on his body, making him unable to resist. The second strike shattered his bones and tendons, and blood spurted from his entire body. He had no power to fight back.
"Ah!!"
He roared, violent and incomparable, sublimating to the extreme in madness, his aura soaring.
"You are not even as good as the seventh heaven Myth realm I killed some time ago, yet you dare to come to me and act presumptuously!"
Jun Wuxie's eyes were cold and merciless. The third punch blasted out, dragons roared and tigers howled. The punch, condensed with the intent of soldiers, shook the universe, causing the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range, protected by a mysterious field, to collapse in all directions.
A miserable cry of resentment came from the vast golden blood energy.
When the blood energy dissipated, it revealed the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain, covered in blood, dying, covering his chest, and bleeding from all seven orifices.
He looked very miserable, blood constantly flowing from his eyes, his body almost unable to stand, his flesh covered with cracks, already on the verge of collapse, and he did not dare to use Yin energy at all.
"Boy, this seat is unwilling, to be buried in the hands of a Half-Sage like you! You and your dynasty will eventually be destroyed. This era is destined to be ended by you. This universe will surely become the property of us and the Dark Universe!"
"Come as much as you want, I will kill as many as you come!"
Jun Wuxie spread his palm and blasted forward.
"Lord!"
The other Yin Spirit powerhouses roared and rushed forward, all kinds of Yin Spirit secret techniques, overwhelmingly blasting towards Jun Wuxie, trying to force him to protect himself and unable to kill the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain.
Golden light burst out from Jun Wuxie's pupils, and a large number of soldier talismans instantly condensed around his body.
These soldier talismans bloomed with peerless sword energy, and the killing swept across the universe.
The brilliant sword energy crisscrossed in all directions, sweeping across the world.
All the secret techniques that were blasted were shattered, and hundreds of Yin Spirit powerhouses were beheaded in the air on the spot.
At the same time, his palm crushed forward, shattering the flesh of the Lord of the Yin Spirit Mountain, who could not resist despite exhausting all means, and directly rolled him into the cave.
