Chapter 1020: The Moment That Decides Fate

Inside the underground space.

Within a pitch-black spatial aperture, the Space Power suddenly began to fluctuate.

The group of Cultivators from the Immortal Abandoned Land, who had been guarding the spatial aperture, focused their attention simultaneously and looked over, cold killing intent erupting on their faces.

Under the gaze of the crowd.

Over a dozen figures emerged one after another from that dark spatial aperture.

"Kill!"

Seeing this, the crowd launched their attacks one after another.

Those Out-of-Boundary Cultivators who had just entered the Immortal Abandoned Land had not yet reacted before they were struck down on the spot under the concentrated fire of numerous attacks.

"Careful, someone is guarding the spatial aperture!"

Inside the spatial aperture, those figures who had not yet stepped out exclaimed upon seeing this, warning their companions behind them.

At the same time, these people had already mobilized all their power.

While leaving the spatial aperture, they had already set up layers of defense around their bodies.

However, the capacity of the Space Channel was limited.

The number of Cultivators who could pass through the Space Channel into the Immortal Abandoned Land at one time was ultimately limited.

Faced with the massive disparity in numbers, everything they did was merely in vain.

After over a hundred people were killed in succession, no one appeared in the Space Channel anymore.

Just like that, after the Space Channel fell silent for a moment.

A wave of spatial fluctuations rippled out once again.

The next moment.

Dozens of figures suddenly rushed out from the pitch-black aperture.

These dozens of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators all had cultivation levels that reached the Void Refinement Stage, and their speed was astonishing.

Although the team from the Immortal Abandoned Land had been keeping an eye on the Space Channel, most of the team consisted of Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivators.

Before the crowd could react, those Out-of-Boundary experts had already charged into the crowd.

In an instant.

Large swaths of Immortal Abandoned Land Cultivators had their lives harvested as if they were being mowed like grass.

The team from the Immortal Abandoned Land fell into chaos instantly.

"Do not panic!"

Within the team, an expert shouted loudly.

At the same time.

Dozens of Void Refinement Stage Cultivators flew out from various parts of the team, meeting those Out-of-Boundary Void Refinement Stage Cultivators and isolating them from the rest of the team.

But after this brief chaos.

Thousands of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators had already entered the Immortal Abandoned Land; they all rushed out together and began to battle with the team from the Immortal Abandoned Land.

At first.

The Immortal Abandoned Land side still held an absolute advantage.

A large number of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators were constantly falling, but as Out-of-Boundary Cultivators emerged from the Space Channel in an endless stream.

The number of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators grew rapidly, and the numerical advantage of the Immortal Abandoned Land side shrank quickly.

Eventually, it disappeared completely.

When this entire batch of Out-of-Boundary Cultivators poured in, their numbers had already exceeded ten thousand.

In terms of quantity, they even surpassed the Immortal Abandoned Land side.

This was still the count after the Immortal Abandoned Land side had blocked the spatial aperture, occupied the home-field advantage, and already slaughtered several thousand Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

Otherwise, the gap between the two sides would only have been greater.

Wang Jianqiang was in the midst of the battlefield.

Fighting in a bloodbath.

He used the two great Supernatural Abilities, Dharma Heaven and Earth and Pure Yang Power, to amplify himself.

He also used the Black Tortoise Breath Concealment Art to condense a layer of defense that clung tightly to his skin.

The Years Sacred Body, which had reached the realm of two spirit patterns, erupted completely.

He then used the Great Five Elements Fighting Saint Method to evolve his attacks.

Simplifying the complex.

Every punch and kick contained profound meaning.

Under his all-out attacks, one Out-of-Boundary Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator after another was blasted apart.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator, Primordial Spirit Origin Fragment +2."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator, Primordial Spirit Origin Fragment +3."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator, Primordial Spirit Origin Fragment +1."

In Wang Jianqiang's mind, the system notification sounds rang out continuously.

He no longer had the time to pay attention to the voices in his mind.

All his focus was placed on the battle, immersed in the fighting.

Back when he was at the Transformation Stage, he had already been able to kill Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection level Cultivators who had not condensed an Artistic Conception.

Now his cultivation level had already risen to the Spirit Transformation Late Stage.

His combat power was even more formidable.

A Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection cultivator who has not condensed an Artistic Conception is no longer a match for him in a single exchange.

Boom!

Amidst a booming sound, Wang Jianqiang retreated.

Opposite him.

A Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection cultivator possessing a First-Tier Artistic Conception retreated in a sorry state, his face full of disbelief.

Although his Intent Power was only at the first tier, he had, after all, already stepped onto the path of condensing an Artistic Conception.

His Intent Power was far more powerful than that of an ordinary Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator.

Facing that kind of Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection cultivator who had not condensed an Artistic Conception, he could easily defeat them.

Yet that native of the Immortal Abandoned Land was only at the Spirit Transformation Late Stage, not even having reached Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection.

Engaging him head-on, he had actually fallen into a disadvantageous position...

How could this be!

He barely steadied his figure, subconsciously wanting to get away from Wang Jianqiang.

Just at this moment.

A Golden Light suddenly flashed before his eyes, and a figure appeared.

A punch was thrown.

He felt as if the entire world had trembled violently.

The next moment.

His physical body shattered directly, and his Nascent Soul fled in terror.

Wang Jianqiang had been prepared; he grabbed the Nascent Soul, the power in his palm surging to severely injure it, then skillfully wiped away its consciousness and flipped his hand to put it away.

The entire process was extremely fluid and completed in the blink of an eye.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for killing a Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator (First-Tier Artistic Conception), Primordial Spirit Origin Fragment +4, Artistic Conception Fragment +1."

In his mind, as the system prompt sounded, Wang Jianqiang had already killed his way toward the next enemy.

It is unknown how long the great battle lasted.

Three formidable figures suddenly charged into the battlefield.

The three were like wolves entering a flock of sheep, and Void Refinement Stage cultivators and Integration Stage cultivators from Outside the Realm fell in large numbers.

The Integration Stage and Void Refinement Stage cultivators of the Immortal Abandoned Land, having freed up their hands, joined the battlefield of the Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators.

A similar slaughter was staged once again.

One hour later.

Except for a few Out-of-Boundary Cultivators who saw the situation was bad and escaped in time through the Space Channel, all other Out-of-Boundary Cultivators perished, not a single one left.

"Uncle Wang."

In Wang Jianqiang's mind, a delicate voice rang out, and the next moment, a figure had already appeared by his side.

Seeing Chen Jiaojiao appear, Wang Jianqiang's expression stirred, "Those eight Great Vehicle cultivators from Outside the Realm..."

"They have all been killed," Chen Jiaojiao transmitted her voice to Wang Jianqiang.

After speaking, she took out a Space Ring and handed it to Wang Jianqiang; Wang Jianqiang's expression stirred, and after taking the Space Ring and checking it, his eyes immediately lit up.

Just at this moment, Chen Jiaojiao's voice, containing a hint of regret, entered his mind again, "Two of them were too decisive; seeing the situation was bad, they self-detonated their Spirit Embryos, so I only collected six Spirit Embryos."

Wang Jianqiang had not expected Chen Jiaojiao's execution to be so strong.

Originally, in his thoughts, it would have been good to get one or two Spirit Embryos; he did not expect Chen Jiaojiao to have brought him back six, which had far exceeded his expectations.

"This is already very good."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded at her.

Seeing the smile full of joy on Wang Jianqiang's face, Chen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile also appeared on her face.

"After experiencing this battle, I presume the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators will not give us such a good opportunity again."

Just at this moment, Xuanyi spoke up.

Having said this, he pondered for a moment and continued, "Let us withdraw from this place for now."

"The overall strength of the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators far exceeds ours; continuing to stay here will only make us targets for the main force of the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators, to be wiped out in one fell swoop."

"First return to the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, find a way to gather all the power that can be gathered in this world, and then look for an opportunity to counterattack."

Upon hearing this, the crowd's mood, which had relaxed somewhat due to the temporary victory, turned heavy once again.

They nodded one after another.

Afterwards, everyone withdrew quickly.

For a long time afterward, no Out-of-Boundary Cultivators invaded the Immortal Abandoned Land.

However, no one felt the slightest sense of relief because of this.

Everyone knew very well that this was merely the calm before the storm.

When the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators entered again.

The scale would far exceed the previous one.

When that time comes, it will be the moment that decides the fate of the cultivators of this realm.
