"You think you can fight me!"

Lán Zhī Immortal’s voice was as cold as frost as she advanced with her sword to pursue.

The corners of Wang Jixuan’s mouth twitched slightly. He had not wanted to prematurely taint his immortal body but now he directly allowed the exhausted Dragon Python Soul to leave the First Base.

Roar!

A gray dragon head appeared outside of Wang Jixuan’s body, roaring angrily at the front.

In the next moment, the Dragon Python Soul drilled into Wang Jixuan’s left shoulder of his immortal body.

All three souls severed, seven spirits silenced, Heaven and Earth are cut off, ghost soul unborn!

Hurry up, as per the order!

Wang Jixuan’s self’s primordial spirit closed its eyes, then opened them, with a layer of red light burning at the corners of its eyes, and his qi surged two levels higher!

"Those who block me shall die!"

His figure dashed forward, clashing with Lán Zhī Immortal high in the sky.

Outsiders could only see two clusters of light and shadow colliding repeatedly between Heaven and Earth, each collision shaking the universe and stirring up the winds and clouds.

Meanwhile, in the distance, the remaining Dark Sect Immortal Soldiers had transformed into streams of light, rushing to the intense battle between Wang Jixuan and Lán Zhī Immortal!

...

In the distance, on the treasure ship where the Tianluo Six Loose Immortals and the righteous cultivators of this world were.

"Fellow cultivators!" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

An old Daoist shouted:

"The Dark Sect members have returned! What shall we do! There are so many immortals!"

The group was somewhat panicked.

Although they knew earlier that Wang Jixuan had repelled the main force of the Dark Sect, the charge of more than a hundred Immortal Soldiers simultaneously still made their Dao Hearts tremble.

Daoist Tai Ye furrowed his brows tightly, gripping his duster with force in his left hand.

But he did not speak at the moment, only watching those flowing lights.

The situation changed again, and the six Tianluo Loose Immortals were visibly flustered because the mechanical army they had relied on had not yet deployed.

Only those mechanical bodies left between Heaven and Earth were charging towards these Immortal Soldiers.

The hundred Immortal Soldiers formed a formation, starting to clash with the remaining mechanical army, which directly adopted an aggressive strategy—the close-combat mechanical bodies self-destructing forward, while the long-range mechanical bodies simultaneously rained attacks.

The Immortal Soldier formation was indeed stalled.

But the price was the rapid attrition of the mechanical army.

A Tianluo Loose Immortal cursed profanely, "The Immortal Spirit Road hasn’t recovered yet, with such great losses, this group of Dark Sect immortals will not spare us!"

"Outside the sky! Look outside the sky!"

Someone called out loudly, and everyone looked up towards the northern sky.

There, points of Immortal Light were flickering.

The small remnant force of the Dark Sect that had previously fled was now charging straight back under the lead of a pair of male and female True Immortals, with a faint gray teleportation gate behind them.

If these two forces join, with three True Immortals, over a hundred immortals, and a group of Unification Realm cultivators, how could they resist?

"Our disciples are still with that fellow!"

"The Immortal Gate! The Immortal Gate is the only path out!"

"We have to enter that fellow’s Jiezhi Qiankun, be taken to the Immortal Realm by him, and only then will we have a chance at survival today!"

This group of cultivators had reacted.

The six Tianluo Loose Immortals had a simple transmission discussion, and two of them turned and rushed directly towards the void.

They had made their choice—to hide in the void to avoid the Dark Sect’s subsequent pursuit. As long as they endured until the Immortal Spirit Road was restored, they could leave this place.

The remaining four leaped off the treasure ship, raised their arms, and shouted:

"There’s only one path to survival here!"

"Enter this fellow’s Jiezhi Qiankun! Help him enter the Immortal Gate! Go to the Immortal Realm through the Immortal Gate!"

"With the Dark Sect suffering such heavy losses, they will surely slaughter us!"

"Who’s afraid of going to the void themselves!"

Someone tightly pressed their lips together, turned, and flew into the void, chasing after those two Loose Immortals ahead.

With someone taking the lead, others immediately followed suit, with roughly one-third of the righteous experts choosing to hide in the void, while almost all the remaining ones were Nascent Soul and above cultivators from major sects and families.

"Go!"

The four Loose Immortals simultaneously unleashed their immortal power;

The primordial spirits of these hundreds of cultivators resonated with this immortal power, actually forming into a massive White Crane, heading towards the battleground of Wang Jixuan and Lán Zhī Immortal.

The group of Dark Sect members coming from the north was moving to attack.

Suddenly, explosions were heard from underground; two stone gates opened, and numerous mechanical bodies surged out like a torrent, rushing towards the north like a swarm.

The situation was too critical;

Even Mu Dan could not arrange the mechanical bodies into a proper array in such a short time.

She granted the Mechanical Bodies regional autonomous command authority;

A large number of Mechanical Bodies prepared to detonate their nuclear batteries, hindering the invading enemies to protect their boss.

At this moment, every second counts.

The very center of the battlefield was naturally the site of Wang Jixuan’s fierce duel with Zhi Lan Immortal.

They shattered the clouds, turned the sky red, and the thin protective layer of the Xu Realm was already full of cracks. Their Sword Intent alternately prevailed over each other, sometimes the east wind overwhelming the west, and sometimes vice versa.

The frequency of their clashes was becoming more rapid, so much so that Unification Realm cultivators could not capture their precise forms.

...

Wang Jixuan kept trying to get closer to the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud that belonged to him.

Zhi Lan Immortal seemed to have gone mad, her moves wide and open, showing a flurry of killing blows but unable to inflict much injury on Wang Jixuan. Instead, several sword scars appeared on her own body, with wisps of light gray Qi corroding her Dao Body from the scars.

The price Wang Jixuan was paying at this moment was indeed significant.

He had always kept his main body and Alien Soul separate.

Now, with the Foreign Soul Puppet temporarily unusable, he could only merge his Primordial Spirit with the Alien Soul.

It was as if, his Immortal Spirit Body, which had just become warm, was directly tainted by Demonic Qi.

But in order to enter the Immortal Gate, in order to reach the Immortal Realm, to carve out a way to survive...

He was willing to pay this price!

Why did this person keep lingering like a ghost?

Of course, the Heavenly Dao.

It was the Heavenly Dao that had always been hindering his path to immortality, not allowing variables to exist, or for other reasons, constantly obstructing him and putting him in dire straits.

Senior Bai Gu had yet to make a move;

This was also his enemy, even if he were to call out for Senior Bai Gu’s help, Senior Bai Gu would probably not appear.

Senior Bai Gu wanted to support a strong enough junior, not a crybaby who calls for help at the first sign of trouble.

Fight!

Everything on the road ahead must be seized by his own hands!

To go against Heaven, with the sword saluting the Sky Dome, without asking about the fate of mortals!

Moreover, if the Heavenly Dao was just a consciousness born of rules, couldn’t he also make use of it?

A decisive glint flashed in Wang Jixuan’s eyes. Always attentive to his movement technique, he suddenly began an onslaught, his Sword Momentum becoming fierce and sharp, while the Immortal Treasure surrounding him continuously bombarded Zhi Lan Immortal.

In just a few breaths, Zhi Lan Immortal’s figure leaned back.

Wang Jixuan feigned a forward charge, forcing Zhi Lan Immortal to guard her Primordial Spirit’s location, but then he soared up sharply without covering a hundred zhang.

He nearly flew at a right angle.

His target was still that Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud!

Zhi Lan Immortal angrily shouted, "You still want to trick me!"

Ignoring the backlash of her immortal power aggravating her injuries, she discharged a substantial amount of immortal power to the ground and shot like a meteor directly towards Wang Jixuan’s path!

Wang Jixuan’s face showed anger, but he did not evade, and simultaneously thrust his sword with Zhi Lan Immortal.

Immortal power, Demonic Qi, Buddha Light flickered as he deployed all his Mana, half to protect himself and half to converge on the Moonlight Sword.

The Dao charm of the Great Path of Time blossomed!

Before Zhi Lan Immortal, suddenly there was emptiness. It seemed like they were about to collide, but instead they looked as if they would pass by each other. She immediately slanted her longsword downwards.

At this very moment!

Wang Jixuan raised his left hand to grab Zhi Lan Immortal’s longsword!

Zhi Lan Immortal was caught off guard and watched helplessly as her longsword slashed into Wang Jixuan’s left palm, barely blocked by the already transformed Immortal Bone.

And Wang Jixuan thrust his sword forward with his right hand, forcing Zhi Lan Immortal to converge her immortal power into her left palm to strike downward.

Unexpectedly for Zhi Lan Immortal, Wang Jixuan could still perform evasive maneuvers at this time. The Dao charm of the Great Path of Time appeared a second time, leaving numerous residual images of Wang Jixuan’s movements.

Zhi Lan Immortal’s palm hit empty air, and Wang Jixuan’s longsword pierced her shoulder.

Meanwhile, Master Wang flung aside Lan Zhi Immortal’s Immortal Sword with his left hand, grabbing her waist suddenly and, with a few resolute glances in his eyes, accelerated his ascent!

Buzz!

He raced beneath the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud!

Closer than last time!

The triply stacked Heavenly Punishment Cloud moved, and another pitch-black Divine Thunder struck down, the second Heavenly Punishment prepared for Wang Jixuan descended directly.

And at this moment, Wang Jixuan had a meat shield.

Zhi Lan Immortal turned to look, face pale, and cried out, "Heavenly Punishment!"

Swoosh—

There was no avoiding the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, and both figures were hit simultaneously, crashing straight to the ground!

Due to the interference of the two Mechanical Body armies released by Mu Dan, the actions of the Dark Sect members were slightly obstructed, and the first to rush towards the two were the Tianluo Four Loose Immortals and the experts from this realm.

Streaks of light flashed by, Daoist Tai Ye embraced Wang Jixuan, while the four Loose Immortals swarmed up, deploying various methods to bombard the paralyzed Zhi Lan Immortal struck by the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder!
