Chapter 466

~6 min read 1,180 words

How could Deng Jiugong be his opponent?

In the end, he could only die.

However, fortunately, their luck was decent; even if they were placed on the List in the future, they would at least hold the position of a Star Lord.

Compared to those ordinary cultivators, this was countless times better.

Moreover, perhaps because Deng Jiugong had blocked the Xiqi army for such a long time, he had invisibly accumulated quite a bit of fortune.

In the future Heavenly Court, he would at least not be someone who could be bullied.

As for Deng Chanyu, although her death and placement on the List was quite a pity.

Because her talent was not that outstanding, entering the divine path was actually more beneficial.

Furthermore, she had a good relationship with the dragon previously.

In the future Heavenly Court, she would not be isolated and helpless.

The days ahead were still long.

Perhaps there would be even greater opportunities!

Of course, following the destruction of Deng Jiugong's army, the Great Shang continued to dispatch other armies to block them.

First was Kong Xuan, who erupted with the strength of a late-stage Quasi-Saint; countless cultivators and immortals on the Xiqi side died by his hand.

Even many Chan Sect disciples fell in the process.

Finally, it drew out the Westerner, Daoist Zhunti.

Relying on the strength of a Saint, he was finally able to subdue Kong Xuan and take him to the West.

Only then did this route of intercepting armies finally end in failure.

As for why Zhunti helped the Xiqi side.

It was not that he had reconciled with the Chan Sect as before.

It was because of Kong Xuan.

How could one let go of a true Quasi-Saint powerhouse?

Moreover, the two Western Saints had also calculated that Kong Xuan had an affinity with the West.

He was destined to be a great powerhouse of the West in the future.

Thus, what harm was there in letting the Chan Sect take a small advantage?

As the Great Shang sent out wave after wave of powerful armies to obstruct them.

Each time, countless cultivators joined the great battle.

The cultivators who died miserably came in wave after wave, as if there were no end.

As more and more fell.

The tribulation energy above the Primordial Era had been dyed a blood-red color.

Once a Great Luo Jinxian enters the tribulation, it is difficult to remain calm; at the very least, those whose state of mind is insufficient will have their reason completely obscured once the urge to kill arises.

Only after truly casting off the killing tribulation can they return to normal.

Unfortunately, such people are few and far between.

Not only Great Luo Golden Immortals, but even Quasi-Saints have the potential to fall into it.

Just like Kong Xuan before; at the beginning, he was fine and could maintain his reason.

But as he remained in the tribulation longer and longer, he too could not maintain his reason.

He even began to slaughter wantonly.

One can imagine the terrifying nature of the tribulation energy.

Perhaps only Saints can remain unaffected.

Of course.

There is one more variable, Li Hongxuan, who is even less affected.

And previously, the Yuan Hong killed by Yang Jian and Yang Jiao, along with the Seven Monsters of Meishan and other immortals, were also one of the Great Shang's armies.

One by one, the Great Shang armies were slaughtered by the Xiqi side.

The Xiqi army was getting closer and closer to Zhaoge.

And at this time, whether on the Great Shang side or the Xiqi side, the number of Jie Sect and Chan Sect disciples also began to increase.

At the same time, a more terrifying aura of slaughter permeated the entire battlefield.

The atmosphere became increasingly heavy.

On the Xiqi side, Jiang Ziya's army did not advance rapidly as it had in the past.

Instead, it stopped.

Both sides hung up signs refusing to fight.

The final battle between the Chan and Jie Sects was about to arrive!

This time, the number of disciples from the four sects who arrived was even larger than before.

They gathered in the thousands.

The aura emitted by each one was terrifyingly immense.

Compared to the small skirmishes between ordinary cultivators before.

Now, the battle between the four sects possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth.

As time passed bit by bit.

The third-generation and second-generation disciples of the Chan Sect appeared one by one.

Of the current Twelve Golden Immortals, only a few remained, such as Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, True Person Yuding, True Person Huanglong, and Master Lingbao.

Plus one, Yun Zhongzi.

The others had either died and been placed on the List or were forcibly converted by the West.

Of course, those who arrived this time also included several Quasi-Saints that Yuanshi Tianzun had recruited.

In the previous Immortal-Slaughtering Sword Array, several were destroyed by Li Hongxuan.

Several were converted by Zhunti.

Unexpectedly, there were still some now.

One can imagine how thorough the preparations Yuanshi had made in secret were.

Of course.

One cannot exclude the other even more daunting figure, Laozi...

Even Yuanshi had recruited Quasi-Saints; it was impossible for Laozi not to have recruited some in secret.

If they hadn't appeared yet, it was either because they were still hiding or because he did not intend to expose them in this kalpa.

In the final analysis.

Whether this battle was won or lost, it held no disadvantages for Laozi.

Of course.

Only one person, Li Hongxuan, seemed to be particularly feared by Laozi.

He even harbored the intent to kill.

In this great tribulation, Laozi's primary goal was not to make Tongtian lose face, but to prepare to eliminate Li Hongxuan, this hidden danger.

To avoid Li Hongxuan truly attaining the Dao of the Hunyuan Great Luo Jinxian in the future and affecting the Human Sect and Laozi's layout.

Since that was the case, it was better to strangle him before he truly rose to power.

Although he would lose some fortune because of this.

And it might even affect the development of the Human Sect.

But as long as he was given enough time, it could absolutely be made up for.

Compared to the threat of Li Hongxuan, a mere small price was not worth mentioning.

On the Xiqi side, the disciples of the Chan Sect and Human Sect arrived one after another, and even began to camp in an orderly fashion.

Ready to deal with the upcoming final battle of the kalpa at any time.

The Xiqi side was like this.

The Great Shang army side was the same.

The immortals of the Jie Sect also entered the field one after another.

In the end, even Duobao, Wudang, Our Lady of Turtle Spirit, and others arrived one by one.

Following the instructions of Master Tongtian, they began to set up the Jie Sect's great formation, the Ten Thousand Immortals Array.

This formation was even more grand in scale than the previous Immortal-Slaughtering Sword Array. ===== CHAPTER 467 =====
