Chapter 564: The Xuanli Realm on the Verge of Collapse

"Junior Brother Xiao, you really hid it deep!"

Ye Qingxiao hadn't expected that Xiao Yixian, who had always been polite to him and followed his orders, would actually have a Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure for protection.

However, while feeling wry, Ye Qingxiao, who had survived a disaster, also felt relieved in his heart.

Being able to live was naturally the best thing.

Hearing Ye Qingxiao's words and sensing the grateful and admiring gazes of the other Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses behind him, Xiao Yixian tried hard to suppress the smugness in his heart.

Compared to showing off from beginning to end, he preferred the grateful and admiring gazes harvested at the high-light moment of saving the scene and turning the tide at a critical moment.

Suppressing the corners of his mouth that were curling up, Xiao Yixian did not look back, waved his hand behind him, and said in a breezy manner: "Senior Brother, please forgive me. This is a protective treasure bestowed upon me by my father. I didn't want to use it unless it was a last resort."

Xiao Yixian's father was an Elder at the peak of the Void Penetration Realm within the Profound Yi Tianzong.

As the only son of a peak Void Penetration Realm great power, Xiao Yixian's safety was naturally of great concern to that Profound Yi Tianzong Elder.

If it weren't for the fact that Low-Grade Spirit Treasures are hard to come by, and the Three-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasures among them are even harder to obtain—requiring a Seventh-Order Supreme Grade Artifact Refiner to spend nearly a thousand years of nourishment without consuming a large amount of Seventh-Order resources to shorten the refining time—they are truly rare and hard to find.

Xiao Yixian's father even wanted to prepare a Three-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure for Xiao Yixian's protection.

Watching Xiao Yixian's act of showing off, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin, who were behind Ye Qingxiao and whose expressions hadn't changed much from beginning to end, felt speechless and couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Among them, Leng Qingjian even snorted coldly and envied in his heart: "If I had known, I would have acted first. It's a pity that I was beaten to the punch by this idiot Xiao Yixian."

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The tit-for-tat after the revival of the two Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasures set off a monstrous tide of rule energy in this territory.

If it weren't for the deliberate suppression and protection of the Taixu Flame Spear and the Xieyue Sword, which did not let these rule energy tides spread toward their side,

Ye Qingxiao, Xiao Yixian, and the others, as well as Prince Xieyue, would probably have all fallen into these rule energy tides.

And the rule barrier previously laid down by the Xieyue Sword had been completely shattered under the attack of the Taixu Flame Spear.

Taking this opportunity, besides Ye Qingxiao, Xiao Yixian, and other direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong, the other Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses who had been trapped here had all fled and left this place.

Looking at the flame spear that was deadlocked with his Xieyue Sword, and then looking at the hundreds of Human Race Deity Transformation Realm powerhouses who had already fled toward the distance, Prince Xieyue's face turned livid.

Having reached this point, he knew that the purpose of his trip might already be impossible to achieve.

"Could it be that I'm just leaving like this?"

Just as Prince Xieyue had thoughts of retreating, several arrogant voices suddenly came from the direction of the Blood Moon Realm in the rear: "Tsk tsk tsk, this borderland between the two realms has actually been beaten into such a state? It's quite a grand scene."

"Hahaha, the rivalry between two Low-Grade Spirit Treasures? This scene is not often seen."

"Hehehe, Prince Xieyue, it seems your planning has failed? The two-realm coalition that took decades to gather has been buried by you in one fell swoop? You have quite the ability."

"Pfft, Brother Jun Moyan's words... are also reasonable. Those who don't know might think that Brother Xieyue is a mole for the Human Race, specifically dragging the powerhouses of our Green Demon Clan's Blood Moon and Xuedu Realms to this Human Race Small Thousand World to die!"

As the words sounded, Xie Xinghun had already arrived not far from Prince Xieyue with his two attendants.

And after Xie Xinghun appeared, several peak Deity Transformation Realm Green Demons with extraordinary temperaments, each leading a group of Deity Transformation Realm Green Demon powerhouses, also appeared not far behind Prince Xieyue one after another.

Hearing these slightly mocking words, Prince Xieyue's expression turned even gloomier. He turned to look at the leading Green Demon powerhouses and instantly became angry from embarrassment:

"Stop watching the joke, and hurry up and help me seal the Human Race's Low-Grade Spirit Treasure and take this Human Race Small Thousand World."

He believed that even if the people in front of him didn't have hidden cards as good as his, they definitely wouldn't be much worse.

If they helped, it would basically be easy for his Xieyue Sword to suppress and seal the Human Race's Low-Grade Spirit Treasure.

By then, with the Human Race losing the protection of the Low-Grade Spirit Treasure and him having the help of several major reinforcements, conquering this Human Race Small Thousand World would be easy.

Hearing Prince Xieyue's words, these leading Green Demons sized up the situation before them but did not act immediately.

Instead, they stood in mid-air and watched the rivalry between the Xieyue Sword and the Taixu Flame Spear with interest.

On the opposite side, looking at the several batches of Green Demon powerhouses who suddenly appeared behind Prince Xieyue, Ye Qingxiao's expression sank slightly: "If it's impossible, let's just retreat directly!"

With a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure, at least they had much more room to choose.

If it really didn't work, he would let Xiao Yixian erupt with the full power of the Low-Grade Spirit Treasure to break the space of the Xuanli Realm and escape into the void.

With the power of the Low-Grade Spirit Treasure protecting them in the void for a moment, the formation disk in their hands would have enough time to connect to the cross-realm passage and return to the Di Xuan Realm to bring reinforcements.

Xiao Yixian, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin nodded slightly upon hearing Ye Qingxiao's words.

However, the four of them only frowned slightly when looking at the several batches of Green Demon powerhouses who had suddenly appeared, and there was not much worry in their eyes.

"Bang!" "Boom!" "Boom—!"

Time passed slowly, and both sides just watched the rivalry between the Xieyue Sword and the Taixu Flame Spear quietly, watching the collision of the two major rule powers with fascination.

The space in this territory was continuously shattered and reorganized under the collision of the two Void Penetration powers.

A large amount of chaotic void energy flowed into this heaven and earth from the shattered spatial cracks and raged unscrupulously, only to be suppressed and absorbed by the heaven and earth power and integrated into the heaven and earth.

As time passed slowly, Prince Xieyue saw that the people behind him had not acted for a long time, and a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes as he urged again impatiently:

"What are you waiting for? Why don't you act yet? If you don't act, I'm leaving directly."

Hearing Prince Xieyue's repeated urging, and seeing that the energy foundation of the Xieyue Sword and the Taixu Flame Spear contending in the high sky had also been consumed by more than half,

Xie Xinghun, who had arrived here first, finally spoke with a smile:

"Hehehe, since Prince Xieyue has repeatedly begged us to act, considering we are of the same race, then we shall act to help, how about that?"

Since they had already arrived here, Xie Xinghun naturally would not let the matter of conquering the Human Race Small Thousand World fall halfway.

Therefore, he could not do anything too excessive, letting Prince Xieyue, a powerful combat force, leave at this time.

Seeing Xie Xinghun take the lead, the other leading Green Demons did not refuse and responded one after another: "I have no opinion, anything is fine!"

"Dealing with the Human Race, I don't mind helping Xieyue!"

"Since everyone agrees, I have no opinion either."

After reaching a consensus, Xie Xinghun nodded slightly and waved his hand to throw out a battle armor intertwined with demonic energy and crimson energy.

"Go!"

Under Xie Xinghun's manipulation, this battle armor revived at high speed and flew toward Xiao Yixian's Taixu Flame Spear.

After Xie Xinghun acted, the other leading Green Demons also threw out an artifact one after another, which revived and flew toward the Taixu Flame Spear that was confronting the Xieyue Sword in the high sky.

Sensing this scene, Xiao Yixian, who had been calm, was shocked and hurriedly asked for help: "Not good, four more Low-Grade Spirit Treasures? You guys act quickly."

Without needing Xiao Yixian to speak, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin, who had already realized that something was wrong, took out a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure one after another and threw them out, which revived and flew toward the Green Demon Clan's Low-Grade Spirit Treasures.

Although they were all direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong, Xiao Yixian, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin were either the offspring of Profound Yi Tianzong Elders or closed-door disciples adopted by Profound Yi Tianzong Elders since childhood.

Although Low-Grade Spirit Treasures are hard to come by, as Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong, one of the hegemon-level forces in the Di Xuan Realm, it is not difficult to exchange for one or two Low-Grade Spirit Treasures as long as the contribution points are sufficient.

Therefore, when Xiao Yixian, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin went down the mountain for training, their respective fathers and masters had bestowed a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure upon them for protection.

Ye Qingxiao, standing on the side, looked at the reviving Low-Grade Spirit Treasures in front, and was stunned, thinking incredulously:

"When did Low-Grade Spirit Treasures become so worthless? As direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong, why don't I have one?"

Just as Ye Qingxiao was stunned in place, the Low-Grade Spirit Treasures of both sides had begun to collide with each other.

"Clang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"... "Hum!" "Hum!" "Hum!"... "Bang"... "Sizzle!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom—!"... A full nine fully revived Low-Grade Spirit Treasures were confronting each other in the high sky, and the intense pressure and rule fluctuations erupted were somewhat out of control.

Even though the spirit treasures have spirits and intentionally contracted and suppressed the pressure and rule energy aftermath spreading toward their own cultivators during the confrontation with the opponent's Low-Grade Spirit Treasures,

the leaked pressure and rule energy aftermath still forced the cultivators of both the Human Race and the Green Demon Clan to retreat more than ten thousand miles away.

On the Human Race side, including Xiao Yixian's Taixu Flame Spear, there were a total of one Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure and three One-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasures.

And on the Green Demon Clan side, Jun Moyan was the son of a Void Meditation Realm great power, and his protective treasure, like Prince Xieyue's Xieyue Sword, was also a Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasure.

Therefore, among the five Low-Grade Spirit Treasures on the Green Demon Clan side, there were two Two-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasures and three One-Star Low-Grade Spirit Treasures.

Although Ye Qingxiao, Xiao Yixian, and their group were from the hegemon-level force Profound Yi Tianzong, because the cross-realm passage of the Xuanli Realm was too close to the Profound Yi Tianzong's station, besides some loose cultivators and small forces within the realm, no powerhouses from other major forces had entered the Xuanli Realm for training.

Instead, on the Green Demon Clan's Blood Moon Realm side, because there was no true controller, powerhouses from several major forces would come down to the lower realm for training from time to time.

This led to Ye Qingxiao, Xiao Yixian, and their group being strong, but when facing the siege of powerhouses from several major Green Demon Clan forces training in the lower realm, the trump cards they carried were inferior to the opponent's.

Under the dual suppression of quantity and quality, the Low-Grade Spirit Treasures of Xiao Yixian, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin were beaten back step by step.

They even had no energy left to contract and suppress the expanding pressure and rule energy aftermath.

Ye Qingxiao and the other direct disciples of the Profound Yi Tianzong who had no sense of existence, in order to avoid being suppressed and killed by the aftermath of the battle of the nine Low-Grade Spirit Treasures, were forced to retreat all the way with Xiao Yixian, Bai Qingxia, Leng Qingjian, and Gu Fangqin.

In a short time, the four Human Race Low-Grade Spirit Treasures, including the Taixu Flame Spear, had been suppressed and retreated tens of thousands of miles.

Where the nine major Low-Grade Spirit Treasures collided and fought, the sun and moon lost their color, the heaven and earth shook, and the bottom fire surged—a scene of the coming of the end of the world.

The confrontation and collision of various rule powers derived various destructive phenomena such as lightning and thunder, and the collapse of heaven and earth.

The entire far west of the Xuanli Realm faintly showed signs of collapse.

As a Small Thousand World, in terms of rule power, the Xuanli Realm naturally could not be compared to a few Low-Grade Spirit Treasures.

But at the same time, as a Small Thousand World, most of the rule power in the Xuanli Realm was used to maintain the Xuanli Realm's vast system.

If too much rule power was drawn, the Xuanli Realm itself would begin to collapse continuously.

Furthermore, as the heaven and earth rules of a Small Thousand World, the Xuanli Realm's heaven and earth rules were too rigid and could not flexibly adapt like the Heavenly Dao in a Great World to re-form operation rules.

When facing external dangers, the Xuanli Realm's heaven and earth rules might take the initiative to pay a certain price to mobilize rule power to fight the enemy.

But when facing internal dangers, they could only passively endure.

This was also the reason why the rule power of a mere nine Low-Grade Spirit Treasures forced the Xuanli Realm, as a Small Thousand World, to this point.

If this continued, let alone the far west of the Xuanli Realm, even the entire Xuanli Realm might be destroyed by the power of the nine Low-Grade Spirit Treasures.

Ye Qingxiao, Xiao Yixian, and the others, who retreated again and again, looked at the far west of the Xuanli Realm, which was on the verge of collapse, and felt helpless in their hearts.

Their Low-Grade Spirit Treasures had already been entangled by the Green Demon Clan's Low-Grade Spirit Treasures, and they themselves were already hard to protect.

Now, where would they have the energy to protect the safety of the Xuanli Realm? If this continued, they would probably have to stay here and be buried with the Xuanli Realm.

"It's over, what should we do now?"

Gu Fangqin, who had encountered this kind of crisis and witnessed this kind of scene for the first time, was already panicked.

Looking at her protective spirit treasure that was retreating step by step, Gu Fangqin felt that she would be suppressed and killed by the Green Demon Clan's Low-Grade Spirit Treasure in the next second.

Hearing Gu Fangqin's words, Ye Qingxiao was silent for a while.

Without a Low-Grade Spirit Treasure, he was like a burden at this moment, and his cultivation base could not help at all in this situation.

Just when everyone's attention was entirely on the rivalry of the nine Low-Grade Spirit Treasures,

the fluctuations continuously emitted after the revival of the nine Low-Grade Spirit Treasures continuously touched the miniature small tower hanging at Ye Qingxiao's waist. This miniature small tower had already begun to vibrate slightly, gradually emitting a trace of seven-colored light that was temporarily inconspicuous.
