Chapter 473: Entrusted in a Crisis

Inside Immortal City, it was already in chaos.

The Vast Sea Immortal Spirit invaded Immortal City, besides squeezing Li Tianyi out of the Source Realm, it had other purposes.

Above the city, Li Tianyi held a huge water comet in one hand and fought with the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit in the other, occupying the entire sky battlefield. The light of chaos and the sea of origin collided, leaving the entire immortal city shrouded in fog.

Further down, one water mass after another wrapped up the defeated alliance cultivators, floating in the air, absorbing the nutrients of human and demon cultivators, and constantly providing power to various ocean monsters.

"The life origin of humans is truly delicious."

In the void sea, a giant octopus connected to the water mass with its tentacles. Although some cultivators realized the problem and wanted to join forces to kill this octopus, there were exceptionally many monsters guarding the giant octopus.

Octopus Ancestor, a veteran-level monster under the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit, had the ability to extract life essence and bestow the life essence of humans and demonic beasts to other ocean monsters, strengthening their power.

"Uh... uh!" Under the control of Octopus Ancestor, hundreds of geniuses had already fallen, becoming nutrients. Besides those who had completely died, there were dozens of others dragging their heavily injured bodies, trapped within water spheres. They struggled constantly in the water spheres, but could never break through, and could only watch their life pass away.

Inside the water sphere, there were even two Heavenly Origin cultivators. The descendant of the Martial Emperor, Wan Renzong, had already lost an arm in the great battle, and blood dyed the water sphere red. He used his remaining strength to try to break the water sphere that suddenly shrouded him, but that fist, which was enough to smash several large mountains, was as powerless as hitting cotton.

"Damn it..." Wan Renzong felt desolate in his heart.

If he weren't a body cultivator with a more vigorous life origin, he would have already become a dried corpse at this time.

On the other side, there was also a blue-clothed female cultivator trapped in a water sphere. Compared to Wan Renzong, her state was a bit better. However, following a light "eh," Shui Lingsu, the eldest senior sister of the Water Moon Xiandao, felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Eh, there is actually an 'Origin Body.' No wonder she could persist for so long." Octopus Ancestor noticed Shui Lingsu. The Water Moon Xiandao had cultivation methods that could cultivate a postnatal Origin Body. An Origin Body could sign a contract with the sea and control the most original power of the ocean. Because of this, in the Heavenly Origin Realm, the ocean was the absolute home field of the Water Moon Xiandao, and even the Heavenly Origin Ancient Kingdom could not break through the Water Moon Xiandao on the sea.

However, facing the many ocean monsters under the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit, facing these incarnations of the ocean, Shui Lingsu's origin power could hardly cause any impact on them. It didn't take long before she was captured alive. However, thanks to the Origin Body, she persisted for a long time in Octopus Ancestor's swallowing water sphere without being refined.

"It's over." She hadn't been refined before, but as Octopus Ancestor cast his gaze over, Shui Lingsu felt a sudden thud in her heart, feeling that her life was not long.

Swoosh!

Dozens of tentacles reached into the water sphere from the void, instantly binding Shui...

Lingsu tightly.

"If you kill me, he won't let you go..." Shui Lingsu, in a desperate situation, spoke with difficulty.

She vaguely remembered that the Island Master told her that if she encountered a life-and-death crisis in the Source Realm, she could try to ask Lin Jing for help!

"Ah? Who? Li Tianyi? Ga-ga-ga-ga, he can't even protect himself!"

Octopus Ancestor couldn't help but laugh.

"It's me..."

However, the next moment, Octopus Ancestor couldn't laugh anymore.

"You two... have good luck."

I don't know when, but the Heavenly River shrouding the city had already been smashed into a big hole.

Outside the hole, a voice familiar to Wan Renzong and Shui Lingsu came out. In other places, Gu Xinghe and others who were fighting also recognized this familiar voice.

Boom!

Before anyone was seen, a pair of magic treasures like cow horns broke through the air and headed straight for Octopus Ancestor. The ocean monsters guarding Octopus Ancestor subconsciously blocked, but these cow horns were as terrifying as immortal artifacts. These monsters were only slightly affected by their power, and in an instant, they turned into water vapor and dissipated in the world, completely losing their lives.

"Immortal Beast! Lin Jing!"

Following the two figures entering the city, Octopus Ancestor was shocked. According to intelligence, Lin Jing, the current Longevity Body, should be recuperating from his injuries, and judging from his fight with Mo Yu, his control over the Immortal Beast was also very weak.

But now, Lin Jing, with half-white and half-black long hair and life-and-death power all over his body comparable to Void Profound magic power, walked into the city. Octopus Ancestor was shocked to find that this guy was not in a state of serious injury at all, and even the terrifying magic power connecting him and the Immortal Beast corpse was not insufficient at all, as vast as the sea.

Even, the art of corpse control could be achieved to the point of using the attack organs on the Immortal Beast corpse as magic treasures.

The cow horns turned into light beams, directly piercing through Octopus Ancestor's body. At the moment of life and death, Octopus Ancestor turned into a water flow and fled quickly. Lin Jing didn't pay any more attention, because there were plenty of gazes staring at it...

At this moment, those cultivators who were swallowed by it fell from the broken water spheres as if liberated.

Wan Renzong, Shui Lingsu, and others saw that it was Lin Jing who returned to the city, and felt inexplicably relieved, as if they had found a backbone.

"Longevity Immortal Body! Haha, Junior Brother, you've become stronger again."

At this moment, Li Tianyi and the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit also noticed Lin Jing and sensed Lin Jing's current state. Li Tianyi laughed, and the originally somewhat chaotic eyes not only showed light.

"With your current state, you should be able to freely control the Immortal Beast corpse, right?"

"This guy..." The Vast Sea Immortal Spirit looked unkindly at Lin Jing, this unexpected change.

The next instant, it suddenly felt Li Tianyi increase his power.

"You came just in time! In the capacity of the Young Alliance Leader of the Cultivation Alliance, I temporarily appoint you as the acting City Master of the Immortal City of the Cultivation Alliance. I hope you can lead the alliance cultivators who arrive later to repel these monsters. You must never let Immortal City fall!!!"

"You..." Lin Jing looked at the figure holding the comet and fighting with the immortal spirit, realizing that after several days of great battle, Li Tianyi was probably already at the end of his rope. It wasn't that he was about to be defeated, but that he was about to be unable to suppress his own realm!!

The other party had been struggling to support, and his own appearance seemed to finally make the other party breathe a sigh of relief.

"Alliance cultivators have already returned to the Pangu Continent. The Cultivation Alliance will gather reinforcements as soon as possible and send them into the Source Realm. During this period, Junior Brother Lin, Immortal City, I leave it to you. Next, I will use my final power to seal... a portion of the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit's magic power!"

Lin Jing arrived, and Li Tianyi finally had no worries. Although he didn't know to what extent Lin Jing had become stronger, at such a critical moment, besides Lin Jing, he couldn't find a second cultivator capable of resisting the Vast Sea Immortal Spirit.

As long as Lin Jing could resist for a period of time, it would give the Pangu Continent more time to think of a way... In the current situation, he believed that even if they piled up various immortal-level resources, even if it was extremely wasteful, the experts of the Cultivation Alliance would quickly pour out a few geniuses with combat power close to immortal spirits.
