Chapter 1280: Chapter 1280: The Great Formation Breaks, Reinforcements Arrive
In years of warfare, various groups had their duties, leading the masses to attack outward.
Only within a few breaths, close combat started, and the shouts of battle echoed like thunder.
The battlefield was like a meat grinder, blood, limbs, and heads being swept into the air, instantly resembling Abi Hell, terribly tragic.
However, such scenes had occurred countless times on this planet, everyone exerting their utmost to eliminate the evil and bring a bright sky to Wandering Dragon Star!
"Not good! Where are Xu Caomu and the others!" Yang Yan suddenly startled, realizing Xu Caomu and the others were gone from above the evil spirits.
Yang Yan felt a chill down his spine, suddenly realizing something.
The evil spirits had only one purpose, to completely devour everyone on Wandering Dragon Star, making them puppets.
Currently, only this piece of land on Wandering Dragon Star remained unpolluted by Evil Qi. They did not need to kill everyone first; they only needed to occupy this land, leaving Wandering Dragon Star people without a refuge. Then, wouldn’t they be at their mercy?
Thinking of this, Yang Yan looked up sharply.
At the same time, a thunderous sound erupted above Yang Yan and others, shaking several among them, causing them to stagger.
Some lower-level cultivators even had blood spurting from their ears!
Unnoticed, Xu Caomu and the others were already attacking above the formation.
Suddenly, before Yang Yan and the others could react, the world changed color, the sun and moon lost their light.
Xu Caomu and others moved all their Evil Qi and Spiritual Qi, unleashing their mid-stage Nascent Soul strength between their hands.
The dark-as-ink ball of Evil Qi, like a black hole, seemed to devour the light, twisting the light around the formation.
The Spiritual Qi within miles was gathered at one point.
Then, the black light ball, as if absorbing all the light, made the surrounding area suddenly dim.
"Not good!" Yang Yan flew up, shouting, "Quick! Stop them, they’re going to destroy the formation!"
However, the black light ball was already being slowly pushed out by Xu Caomu and the others, not fast but heavy like a mountain, giving an unstoppable aura, lightly touched the edge of the formation.
"Crack!" The sound of glass breaking quietly emerged.
Yang Yan hadn’t arrived yet, feeling like Mount Tai was pressing directly onto him, wanting to swing his Longsword but his Spiritual Power felt sluggish, unable to move.
When Yang Yan raised his head again, he saw Xu Caomu and the others coldly staring at him outside the formation.
However, the barrier-like water ripple in the middle had disappeared.
The Nine Heavens Star Formation...is broken!
Seeing the formation broken, the expressions of those within varied, some with helplessness, some with grief, some with determination, yet none retreated, even though they vaguely sensed what they were about to face.
"For so many years, we’ve done our best, if we die here today, then it’s fate, I’m going to fight!" shouted a cultivator, charging out.
Unfortunately, Xu Caomu barely glanced, and a single palm strike crushed the cultivator into dust, and continued staring intently at Yang Yan, eyes filled with deep hatred.
"Humph, damned kid, now that the formation is broken, let’s see if you can still perform any tricks in my palm?"
A cold laugh, Xu Caomu flew towards Yang Yan to kill.
Lin An furrowed his brows, glanced back at Yang Yan, and sent him a message.
"Yang Yan, you’re the hope of our Ancient Abyss Sect and Wandering Dragon Star. I’ve already set up the teleportation array earlier, and I’ll try my best to find a way to teleport you elsewhere during the battle. Remember, don’t return to Wandering Dragon Star unless you reach the Nascent Soul!"
Then, Lin An leaped up, charging towards Xu Caomu, knowing this battle would claim many lives, he must leave a seed for Ancient Abyss Sect and Wandering Dragon Star!
"No! Sect Leader Lin!"
Receiving the transmission, Yang Yan smiled wryly, even though his Divine Body allows him to fight against Nascent Soul at the peak of Golden Core, what of it?
Ultimately his skills are inferior, and his efforts futile; must he really perish here today?
Meanwhile, other Golden Core Realm cultivators began seeking opponents, battling alongside the three Sect Leaders and the many-led Evil Spirit Army.
Gradually, Yang Yan’s gaze blurred, the scene before him overlapping with memories from the Spirit Realm of years past.
How similar this scenario was to when the Time Elder desperately defended Wandering Dragon Star?
Previously they managed to endure ten years under Xu Caomu’s hand, partly due to Xu Caomu’s unstable progression, but also because Xu Caomu hadn’t delivered fatal blows.
His playfulness had arisen, like a cat playing with a mouse, wanting to toy with them before slowly killing them.
And the cultivators here were like mice in his eyes!
But now Xu Caomu had tired of playing, planning to quickly dispose of them.
With a slight wave of his hand, a hidden teleportation array shattered piece by piece, as if something had stuck in the machinery, ceasing its operation.
Following another palm stroke, many fell wherever it passed.
Even Lin An had several ribs broken, spitting out blood with a muffled sound.
The crowd looked at Xu Caomu and the others with resentment, lamenting the unfairness of Heavenly Dao, allowing evil spirits to wreak havoc upon all life.
Yet just as they sighed, watching Wandering Dragon Star teeter, the distant space fluctuated violently, and a grand door abruptly stood before them.
It seemed to appear out of nowhere, obstructing all attacks.
Then, one figure after another stepped out from the door.
At this sight, Lin An raised his eyebrows, his pupils shrinking upon seeing those figures, as if witnessing incredible individuals, his whole body trembling intensely.
The newcomers were none other than the legendary Soul Shepherd of the Land of the Extreme West Ten Thousand Tombs, Northern Netherworld King, Marquis of Nanchuan, and Dragon King of the Eastern Continent, along with Supreme Elders hidden within the ten sects.
Moreover, Lin An and Cold Flood Dragon, both Nascent Soul Realm, could feel that their aura was far beyond Nascent Soul achievable!
These Supreme Elders were not hiding away but bound by an Ancient Contract, where anyone on Wandering Dragon Star exceeding Golden Core and reaching Nascent Soul had to guard the borders. But now, with Wandering Dragon Star in peril, they must return!
The Supreme Elders glanced around at the cultivators with satisfaction.
"Young ones, your efforts during these days have been tiring; these evil spirits have ravaged Wandering Dragon Star for years without anyone subduing them, which is indeed our responsibility. We’ve returned now to sweep away these demons!"
The crowd hastily knelt, many moved to tears like aggrieved children.
For years, no one cared, but suddenly having support, for many, emotions burst forth.
