"Who are you people?"

A sharp shout demanded of the intruders.

A Nascent Soul True Person guarding the coastal array eye looked at the newcomers and asked subconsciously.

Wang Yuan, charging at the very front, did not reply, his entire body's battle Qi erupting as he charged straight ahead.

The Nascent Soul True Person saw that the situation was not right and struck out with a flying sword.

Wang Yuan threw a punch with his bare hand!

Clang!

The fist and sword collided, actually emitting the sound of metal clashing.

The enemy's eyes widened, somewhat incredulous; he was resisting a True Artifact-level flying sword with his bare hands?

"Qi Qi Shixiong Wang Yuan, are you alright?" A concerned inquiry came from behind.

It was Yu Jade Jiao Long.

Wang Yuan said without looking back, "Do not stop; destroy every array eye as much as possible, prevent the Dao Sect people from repairing them, and do not let them go to the Heaven and Earth Island!"

While speaking, his divine intent had already erupted, locking firmly onto the enemy's aura.

Behind him, the many cultivators of the Luo Tian Sect had already descended upon the Dongyuan Continent.

Yu Jade Jiao Long and Haoranzi joined forces, and Especially Ling Fengzi arrived riding the wind.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

A huge white tiger puppet strode forward, running across the earth, with Canglong, who looked like white snow, standing atop it.

"Fellow sect members, if you encounter danger, remember to activate the Tier 4 talismans bestowed by Qi Qi Shixiong Luo Chen; do not be stingy!"

The Nascent Soul True Person entangled by Wang Yuan saw this scene and could not help but feel his heart and gallbladder tremble; in his line of sight, it was not just these few people from the Luo Tian Sect.

In the distance, giant turtles were landing, black dragons were ascending to the sky, and even more bewitching Ghost Emperors were flickering forward.

In other directions, there were also beams of powerful escape light slaughtering their way into the Dongyuan Continent.

After the trembling of his heart and gallbladder came an uncontrollable rage.

"Daring to offend the Tianyuan Dao Sect, you all deserve to die!!!"

Wang Yuan's expression was cold, "Come, let me see the capabilities of the people from the number one holy land in the world!"

Without further ado, a life-and-death struggle unfolded between the two.

Powerful magic power and battle Qi erupted in all directions; the low-level cultivators nearby could not participate at all.

This great battle was not just a conflict between Luo Chen and the Tianyuan Dao Sect, but a war between the Eastern Wasteland cultivation world and the Central Plains cultivation world.

The battlefield was divided by the various sect forces of the Eastern Wasteland, unfolding continuously on the Dongyuan Continent like pieces being placed on a chessboard.

The Tianyuan Dao Sect cultivators who came to support were continuously intercepted by experts from all sides along the way.

As the sect where Luo Chen resided, the Luo Tian Sect naturally had to take the lead and charge at the front.

Wang Yuan and the others completed this task very well, fearing neither life nor death, and were the first batch to slaughter their way into the Dongyuan Continent.

Naturally, the resistance they encountered was also the most intense.

Wang Yuan's situation was fine, because he himself was not a Qi Refiner, and his realm could not be measured by Golden Core or Nascent Soul, so the first enemy he encountered was not too strong, only at the early Nascent Soul stage.

But other places were not so "relaxed."

Especially where Yu Jade Jiao Long was.

Three massive beams of white light struck one after another.

Yu Jade Jiao Long unfolded her Nascent Soul domain, wanting to slow down such attacks, but the effect was minimal.

In her haste, she could only unfold defensive methods.

Boom!

Just one beam of white light severely injured her.

Seeing the two beams of white light following closely behind, Yu Jade Jiao Long could not help but reveal a look of despair in her eyes.

Just at this moment.

"Dodge!"

A bamboo scroll unfolded before her, blocking a beam of white light; following that, the Qi of Haoran erupted, and within it, a fire phoenix circled out, attacking the newcomer.

A figure stood before Yu Jade Jiao Long; it was Haoranzi, who had been imprisoned with her in the Cangwu Mountains for two hundred years.

"Junior Sister, be careful; there are too many Nascent Soul cultivators on this battlefield now, and the magic power and spiritual Qi are chaotic; the Nascent Soul domain can no longer be used normally, and everything must rely on one's own offensive and defensive means."

Haoranzi said this while looking at the newcomer with a grave expression.

A mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

On the other side, Especially Ling Fengzi was also trapped in a bitter battle, but fortunately, his escape speed was extremely fast, and he had mastered the killing move "Wind Tunnel," barely supporting himself and not being defeated.

Canglong, on the other hand, broke through an array maintained by over a hundred people in a short time.

Facing the attacking Dao Sect True Person, she was not flustered, her Canghai Zhenlong sword light waving, and the talismans bestowed by Luo Chen were activated from time to time, suppressing the Dao Sect True Person firmly.

The late-stage Nascent Soul white tiger puppet beneath her feet walked toward the next array eye as if strolling in a courtyard.

In the sky.

Dozens of experts from the human and demon races of the Eastern Wasteland did not stop; since the Luo Tian Sect cultivators had already torn open the defense line, they only needed to drive straight in.

For so many years, the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion had only one Nascent Soul True Person, and that was Lin Qingxuan, who had absorbed the Yuding Sword Sect back then.

It was unknown if Lin Qingxuan had deliberately suppressed the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion from producing a second Nascent Soul True Person, but at this moment on the battlefield, he had nothing to rely on, a single person with a single sword.

A figure standing like a mountain, possessing the demeanor of a great master, blocked the path before the array eye.

Lin Qingxuan had sword pellets circling his side, knowing that the newcomer was no easy opponent, his gaze grave:

"Name!"

The man flipped his large sleeve, and a long sword fell into his hand: "Liu family, Liu Yuan!"

Lin Qingxuan flicked his finger, and the sword pellets emitted ten thousand sword lights.

"Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion's Lin Qingxuan, please enlighten me!"

Tao Wan's mood was somewhat apprehensive; this was her first battle after advancing to the Nascent Soul realm, and also a battle she had never imagined.

The scale of the battle involved by both sides was completely no less than the racial war between the human and demon races of the Eastern Wasteland back then, and because the Nascent Soul experts were too concentrated, it was even more dangerous.

But she had to come to this battle.

Back then, Luo Chen had taken action for her, winning the battle for the Green Dan Valley's Dao Seed, ensuring she broke through to the Golden Core stage safely.

Later, being able to luckily purchase a Core Formation Pill at the Lingtian Auction, it was not impossible that Deng Taiyue had looked at her relationship with Luo Chen.

Therefore, even if not for the Soul Transformation opportunity, the Tihi Pill, she had to come and help Luo Chen.

However, the slaughter on the Nascent Soul battlefield was even more cruel than she had imagined!

Just one beam of fire light rose from the sky, tearing open her defense and severely injuring her.

A figure like a flame demon slowly rose from the ground, filled with anger inside.

"Where is Luo Chen?"

Tao Wan could not answer; having fallen to the earth, she had just recovered when she spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood.

Pfft!

Her entire body's magic power seemed to have been ignited by someone, boiling and restless, on the verge of exploding.

She looked at the person who appeared, her expression terrified.

"Shi Ju!"

It was the Dao Sect genius who had once been to the Eastern Wasteland, now the head of the Shi family, Shi Ju!

It was rumored that he had grasped the true meaning of the laws in advance and practiced Dao Sect divine abilities, not even falling behind when facing a late-stage Nascent Soul Great Demon Emperor.

How could she contend with such a person?

Just that palm strike earlier had almost instantly killed her.

Or rather, it wasn't that the opponent couldn't do it, but that he had deliberately left her alive to inquire about Luo Chen's whereabouts.

But Tao Wan could not answer, nor did she want to answer.

She could only watch helplessly as Shi Ju stepped through the air, walking toward her step by step, his face ferocious and angry.

Swish! Swish!

Two figures flew over, blocking Shi Ju on the left and right.

Tao Wan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, flying up unsteadily, looking at the two backs and saying with difficulty: "Changxi, Mengye, it's you."

Shi Ju continued forward as if no one else were there.

"You cannot stop me; even if the three of you join forces, you are not my opponent. Tell me, where is Luo Chen? I know he has already come!"

That palm print that had crossed the ocean earlier, almost piercing through half the continent, he absolutely would not misidentify.

It was precisely the ultimate technique of the Wild Loose Person Luo Chen back then—the Qingyang Great Handprint!

Changxi's expression remained as usual, holding his sword to protect Tao Wan.

"Your opponent is not us, it is Qi Qi Shixiong Jiuling."

Shi Ju suddenly raised his head!

In the void, a dreamlike river of light was slowly flowing open.

Within it, the figure of Jiuling Yuanjun was looming.

"You are not worthy of being Luo Chen's opponent; let this seat come and have a bout with you!"

Shi Ju smiled ferociously, "Very well; kill you all, and Luo Chen will eventually appear."

As the words fell, he soared into the sky, his entire body's Sun True Fire erupting, forcibly slaughtering his way into the Great Jiuxiao Heaven River.

After he left, the three of Changxi breathed a sigh of relief.

Shi Ju was a true Dao Sect genius, definitely not someone they could contend with.

It could even be said that ordinary great cultivators might not necessarily be able to suppress Shi Ju.

Perhaps only Jiuling Yuanjun, who was once hailed as the number one person beneath the great cultivators, could fight him.

"Then what about us?" Tao Wan inquired.

Changxi smiled slightly, his gaze falling on that immortal city in the distance.

There happened to be an array eye inside.

However, this smile soon disappeared.

Because in the immortal city, figures were emerging one after another; although they were only at the Golden Core cultivation level, relying on the geographical advantage of the immortal city and the assistance of the arrays, their lethality was enough to threaten Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Kill!"

At the same time, beside a large lake.

Four figures descended from the sky.

The aged Tianduzi walked at the front.

By the side of the large lake, two Dao Sect True Persons blocked their path without the slightest retreat.

"Qi Qi Shixiong, leave these two to us!" Tianquanzi said.

Tianduzi nodded, his footsteps not stopping in the slightest, heading toward the large lake.

Tianquanzi led two newly advanced Nascent Soul junior brothers, unfolding an array to envelop the Dao Sect True Person within.

Tianduzi did not even look at the result of this battle, only silently watching this calm large lake.

A moment later, his gaze flashed, and he pointed a finger.

Swish!

A wisp of magic power struck deep into the large lake; following that, ripples spread, and spiritual light bloomed.

Bang!

Like a dreamlike bubble, the large lake shattered in an instant, and array patterns deep at the bottom of the lake were clearly visible.

It was just that the light of these array patterns was gradually dimming.

The array eye here was broken by him with a flip of his hand.

Tianduzi did not leave directly, but earnestly looked at those dim array patterns, only revealing a thoughtful expression after a long while.

"Although it is a Tier 6 array, it is composed of individual Tier 4 arrays, forming a Tier 5 great array on each continent, and then all added together to form the Heaven-Gathering Array."

"That's right, cultivators in this realm have not reached the Void Refinement stage, so how could they easily set up a Tier 6 array."

"This is indeed a good train of thought, array after array linked, doubling the power. But the shortcomings are also very obvious; one move affects the whole situation, as long as the array on a continent is mostly damaged, it cannot succeed."

"With such obvious drawbacks, how could the Tianyuan Dao Sect be negligent? Is it disdain, or did they not think anyone would come to destroy it?"

While he was thinking, the nearby battle had already ended.

Three figures from the Tiandu Sect were revealed; one had a withered aura and sat on the ground, one stumbled and finally leaned against a rock, gasping for breath, and only the junior brother Tianquanzi performed as before.

As for the two great Dao Sect True Persons, they had already turned into a pool of blood.

Tianduzi frowned, "The three of you joined forces, and even cooperated with the Three-Phase Killing Array I tailored for you, why were you still so strenuous?"

Tianquanzi smiled bitterly, "The two junior brothers' realms were ultimately not quite there, and the Dao Sect experts were unexpectedly tenacious; being able to kill the two without paying the price of life can already be considered lucky."

Tianduzi suddenly understood, and then ordered: "I will give you a stick of incense time to adjust your breath, and then we will go to the southeast node. According to my estimation, there is a locally important node there; once it is broken, it can paralyze seven nearby array eyes!"

"Alright!"

As time passed quickly, the battle on half of the Dongyuan Continent had already begun.

The situation on each battlefield was completely different.

There were those like the Luo Tian Sect charging and falling into bitter battles, and there were sects similar to the Jiuling Sect that were evenly matched, and after participating in the battle, they mostly focused on surprise attacks because they had fewer Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Tiandu Sect performed with more purpose, so every time they took action, it appeared quite calm.

But to truly speak of being overbearing, it had to be the two strongest sects in the current Eastern Wasteland cultivation world.

The Dongyang Sect and the White Deer Cave!

One side had five great True Persons, led by the Great Elder of Dongyang, who was at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

One side had six Nascent Soul True Persons; apart from the newly advanced Nascent Soul Kongtongzi, the other five were all long-standing Nascent Souls, their strength incomparably powerful. Like that Tieguan True Person, he had once fought side-by-side with Luo Chen on the Badao Domain battlefield back then, building a resounding reputation. And the Great Elder, Peng Xiang True Person, also had a realm at the late Nascent Soul stage; when encountering thorny Dao Sect experts, he would also take action personally to forcibly kill them.

The two great forces drove straight in, heading straight for the Lanke Mountain Range, the core of the Dongyuan Continent.

According to Luo Chen's intelligence, that was the most important of the important!

It was both the Dao Sect's ancestral grounds and where the core array eye of the Heaven-Gathering Array was located.

Only by breaking that place could all future troubles be solved.

In order to slaughter their way into the Dao Sect's ancestral grounds, Luo Chen had long ago arranged for a Tier 5 ghost god to cause chaos inside.

However, although the Kui Ox ghost god was strong, the foundation of the Tianyuan Dao Sect could not be underestimated; it was hard to guarantee that the opponent would not activate some Soul Transformation-level means to quickly suppress and kill it.

Therefore, subsequent support was extremely important.

At this moment on the Dongyuan Continent, three forces, like three arrows, were charging straight toward the Lanke Mountain Range.

The reason they were called three arrows was that apart from the Dongyang Sect and the White Deer Cave, there was also the side of the demon race experts.

As demon race experts forcibly conscripted by Luo Chen in the name of the Hall Master of Du Zhen, their hearts had long been filled with resentment.

This resentment had no way to be vented on Luo Chen, and even less way to defy the orders of the Cangwu Mountains, and then it could only be suppressed and suppressed again, until they stepped onto the Dongyuan Continent!

The resentment that shot into the sky erupted!

More than twenty Demon Emperors, after stepping onto this continent, turned into one bloody storm after another.

Led by the Thunder Prison Divine Peng, assisted by the three Great Demon Emperors Bi Zheng, Niu Gui, and Kuang, leading a group of Demon Emperors, they could be called killing anyone who blocked them, and killing gods if they blocked them.

Nascent Soul cultivators who dared to resist were all torn to pieces and blasted into powder.

The important immortal cities blocking their path were all smashed into ruins.

They had only one goal: to strike at the heart and slaughter their way into the Dao Sect's ancestral grounds!

Along this journey, the three great forces advanced extremely fast, almost encountering no decent resistance; occasionally Dao Sect True Persons appeared, but only in twos and threes.

This number made people somewhat suspicious.

Too few!

Although the Tianyuan Dao Sect had suffered an unprecedented catastrophe, according to calculations by interested people, the remaining Nascent Soul experts were at least around a hundred.

Over the past hundred years, under vigorous cultivation, they must have been able to produce quite a few more.

Even if dispersed across three continents, as the Dao Sect's ancestral grounds, the Dongyuan Continent should have had at least fifty or sixty.

However, the intensity of the resistance encountered on the battlefield was not that great.

Forces like the Fenghua Palace, the White Crane Sect, the Hundred Beasts Sect, and even the Dieyun Sect and the Seven Dong Mountains, carried out the task of destroying array eyes very smoothly.

It could even be said that before the demon cultivators of the Du Zhen Hall and the two top human Nascent Soul sects had slaughtered their way into the Lanke Mountain Range, the array nodes on the Dongyuan Continent had been destroyed by more than half within a single day.

Such severe damage was already enough to affect the operation of the overall great array.

Accompanied by a heaven-shaking loud noise, the Dongyuan Continent, which was advancing toward the direction of the Heaven and Earth Island, stopped with a bang.

The earth shook, the ocean overturned, and boundless giant waves rose to the sky.

Outside the Heaven and Earth Island.

Luo Chen stood with his back to the giant waves, looking at the empty place before him.

In the void, ripples fluctuated, and a figure slowly emerged.

It was precisely Li Canghai!

"Senior really did not break the agreement."

Li Canghai smiled slightly, looking back, "This old man did not expect that you could make such a big move, with so many Nascent Soul experts invited by you to come. Tsk tsk, is this the appeal of a Great Grandmaster of Alchemy?"

Luo Chen smiled without answering.

This was not just the appeal of a Great Grandmaster of Alchemy, but also related to the good reputation he had maintained for many years.

Like Li Canghai, as a great expert of array Dao, did he not possess appeal?

But the opponent's reputation, apart from his legendary cultivation experience, was not necessarily very good.

At the very least, he had not provided much help to his former peers.

After advancing to Soul Transformation, he was not seen to promote junior generations much either.

The so-called Canghai Righteous Dao Alliance was merely a tool in his hands.

When the demon army was freed from the Night Demon Heaven, he disregarded morality and instead took the opportunity to seize the Spirit Mountain to refine treasures. When the Tianyuan Dao Sect entered the North Sea, Li Canghai could abandon the Righteous Dao Alliance. After the Dao Sect retreated, the demon race was powerful, and he could turn to cooperate with demon race great experts.

Being so fickle, even if he possessed heaven-shaking skills, it was not certain how many people would be willing to die for him.

Sometimes, when a person possesses powerful strength and provides sufficient benefits to others, reputation is also one of the keys to cooperation between the two sides.

Seeing this, Li Canghai did not inquire about what Luo Chen had done to be able to call friends and summon so many helpers; he also shifted his gaze to that island before him, which was like a small continent.

"Heaven and Earth Island!"

"Where the true array hub is located; the Dao Sect ancestor Liancheng is also inside."

"Little friend, do you dare to go inside with me and meet him?"

Luo Chen's smile faded, and an aura of killing intent permeated his entire body.

"Why would I not dare!"

As the words fell, he took a step forward, already crossing ten miles of land, and stepped onto the hard soil of the Heaven and Earth Island.

Li Canghai raised his eyebrows, seemingly greatly appreciating Luo Chen's courage, and then followed him into the Heaven and Earth Island.

The first thing upon entering the island, the two released their divine sense in unison, casting it toward that peak which had once suppressed the world.

The broken Heaven and Earth Peak was wreathed in a sea of white clouds and mist.

A young man sat cross-legged on the flat peak, slowly opening his eyes.
