Chapter 290 Cross-Border Warfare (9)
The barrage of lasers and cannonballs made Tianji City look like the end of the world, a truly terrifying sight. If these attacks continued, very few cultivators would survive. Gu Yuchuan's body instinctively tried to survive, and even the scales on his body came out uncontrollably, indicating that he was feeling immense pressure.
The Silver Serpent Demon Emperor flew out and threw out a blue flag. The flag grew enormous in the wind, and a silver dragon flew out from it. The air was filled with moisture, and the dragon actually had the strength of a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
This flag is called the Mysterious Water Dragon-Trapping Flag. It is a true spiritual treasure, and a mid-grade one at that. Such a treasure, in the hands of a Nascent Soul Venerable, would make one invincible among those of the same level. It is an extremely precious item. The Demon Venerable only possesses this one, and it is the foundation upon which he has become the strongest in the Azure Cloud Realm.
This thing is definitely not something a Nascent Soul stage Silver Serpent Demon Emperor can use. Right now, the Silver Serpent Demon Emperor is only able to activate it by relying on the magic power left by the Demon Venerable in the treasure. It can't be maintained for too long, probably only for about an hour. However, it will definitely be enough for the teleportation array to be set up. When the Demon Venerable himself arrives, he will have countless magic powers.
The silver dragon charged towards the two Venerables. The silver dragon's strength alone was higher than that of the two Venerables. From ancient times to the present, there had never been a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm in the Canglan Realm. The two Venerables' expressions changed, and they immediately joined forces. Otherwise, either of them would be at a disadvantage when facing the silver dragon.
After the two joined forces, they managed to fight the silver dragon to a draw, but they were in great distress. Watching their enemy set up a teleportation array while they could do nothing was obviously very painful.
As Gu Yuchuan channeled his magical power, he watched the battle unfold. It was truly captivating. When would he be able to reach such a level? When that time came, he too would refine a spiritual treasure and possess such divine power. He began to fantasize about this scenario, and so did the other demon emperors.
The Ice Flame Demon Emperor beside him stared wide-eyed: "Little Gu, wouldn't it be great if one day I could become a Nascent Soul cultivator? Then I would be just as powerful, able to force back two Nascent Soul cultivators just by relying on my treasures, even without reaching that level myself?"
Gu Yuchuan casually replied, "Brother, you're different now than before. You do have the ability to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. I think you really might become a Nascent Soul Venerable."
Before he used the Longevity Grass, his chances of advancing in the cultivation realm were actually quite average. After all, at his age, he was still just a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stages. But now it's different. The Longevity Grass gave him an extra 750 years, which greatly increases his chances of advancing.
He knew this himself, and he was very happy: "You are the same. Maybe one day, we can both advance to become Nascent Soul Venerables. Then everything will be different."
As the most powerful realm in the Lesser Thousand Worlds, the Nascent Soul stage brings about a dramatic rise in status.
The battle in the sky continued, and these two Venerables could not win in a short time. However, the crisis was not over yet. Their subordinates finally arrived. In the distance, many cultivators had already arrived, some from the Immortal Path and some from the Technological Immortal Sect. Although they were relatively slow, they were still useful.
Above, the Silver Serpent Demon King shouted, "Azure Flood Dragon Demon King, this is the core of the control formation. Take it and stop them all. Everyone else, increase your magic output. The formation will be ready soon. When it is ready, we will all have accomplished a great feat."
This control formation can be used by any cultivator, since it relies on the power of the formation, not the cultivator's own strength. Whether you are in the Golden Core stage or the Nascent Soul stage makes no difference.
However, the difference between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages is significant when transferring magical power.
Gu Yuchuan stood at the front, holding the core. There were many cultivators in front of him, including quite a few Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators. However, he was not afraid because he held the Blood Qi Sealing Heaven Array in his hand.
"This is already Qingyun Realm territory. I advise you to stop now, or you'll die here. Don't blame me for not warning you beforehand."
The opposing cultivators began to hurl insults at each other, their attitudes resolute. Gu Yuchuan said nothing more and directly activated the formation. Countless ghosts emerged from the formation. After being condensed and enhanced by blood energy, many of these ghosts possessed the strength of the Nascent Soul stage. Instantly, they clashed with the cultivators.
The battle was extremely bloody, with cultivators dying constantly. However, the two Venerables had already given orders for them to attack with all their might, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and go for it.
Above, looking at the teleportation array that was almost complete, the Immortal Venerable could no longer bear it. He didn't want to lose. If he couldn't stop it now, he would be slowly dying. He understood this principle. He shouted loudly, and his aura briefly surged. He must have used some kind of pill to temporarily enhance his strength.
These pills have significant side effects. The one the Immortal Venerable took can increase his strength by 50% for half an hour, and it will take about a month after that. He's really going all out.
Under his explosive power, the silver dragon was, after all, just a spiritual treasure, and the Silver Serpent Demon Emperor was unable to truly control it. After a quarter of an hour, he was still driven back. Thus, the Immortal Venerable was able to launch another attack on the ground below.
A massive laser beam struck down, instantly melting the Blood Qi Sealing Heaven Array. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief; it was a matter of life and death. If no one stepped forward, they would all die. Gu Yuchuan didn't want to die, but he was powerless. What could he do against a Nascent Soul cultivator who had suddenly awakened? However, thinking about his resurrection talent, he felt a little relieved. In short, he had a second life.
Just as the laser beam descended, the teleportation array was finally completed. At the critical moment, a figure appeared—it was the Demon Lord. Everyone could even feel the intense heat of the laser beam; they were about to die. The Demon Lord had finally arrived.
With a wave of his hand, the laser that seemed capable of destroying everything vanished into nothingness. Clearly, this mid-stage Nascent Soul demon lord was superior.
The Demon Lord flew up and stood in front of everyone.
"Fellow Daoist, it's really shameful for a Nascent Soul Venerable like you to attack juniors. Since you like fighting so much, why don't I fight you myself? It would be a way to vent the anger of these little guys."
