Chapter 695

The sword strike that landed on his arm pulled Zhang Nuo's thoughts back; in a fit of rage, he grabbed that silver Flying Sword right out of the air! A golden radiance swirled over his skin, and with a single "Crack!", the silver Flying Sword snapped into two pieces!

At this moment, a cultivator from the Anti-Immortal Faction not far away let out a cry of alarm; the silver Flying Sword from just a moment ago had been unleashed by him, and the sword itself was his life-bound Magic Treasure! He had not expected it to be destroyed in Zhang Nuo's hands!

With his life-bound Magic Treasure destroyed, the cultivator's mind suffered a severe shock, blood sprayed wildly from his mouth, and the aura on his body weakened significantly in an instant!

Zhang Nuo looked down at the wound on his arm; it was only a few inches long, which meant nothing to his formidable physical body! With a movement of his Divine Sense, the wound recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant, everything was as it had been before!

However, the fluctuation in Zhang Nuo's state of mind when he felt the threat of death while being besieged by the Anti-Immortal Faction was something he still found hard to forget! That feeling had truly stirred his state of mind quite a bit! The reason it made him think he was about to advance was because of what he had learned while gaining enlightenment in the "Eight Thousand Array Dao"—another realm above the True Immortal realm! The Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!

Only upon reaching the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm could one be said to have truly attained the Dao and become an immortal, but this realm only existed in legends; in the countless years of the True Immortal World, not a single person had ever succeeded in cultivating it!

Although it was a fleeting thought, Zhang Nuo did not want to let it go just like that! He immediately launched even more ferocious attacks, charging toward the members of the Anti-Immortal Faction regardless of his own life! Xuanyuan Jie, in particular, was his primary target! He did not retreat a single step, and his hands showed no mercy!

Just as Zhang Nuo was locked in a death struggle with the group in order to seek a breakthrough, Dong Lizhong and the others had very stealthily entered the back hall of the Immortal Palace!

At this time, almost all the main forces of the Immortal Palace had gone to the entrance; inside the vast Immortal Palace, there were only a few guards with low cultivation! After the group carefully dealt with these guards, they followed Dong Lizhong, stepping closer and closer to the location where the Xumi Kongjian was hidden!

Jialuoluo sensed the great battle at the entrance of the Immortal Palace and broke into a cold sweat for Zhang Nuo! Even for a cultivator at the Ninth Layer, facing all the True Immortals of the Anti-Immortal Faction in such a battle with such a disparity in strength, the odds of winning were less than thirty percent!

He prayed silently in his heart that nothing must happen to Zhang Nuo!

At the same time, at the entrance of the Immortal Palace, Zhang Nuo released Qiongqi as well, while he himself transformed into the appearance of a two-headed wolf king! Together with his Phantom Immortal Dharma Image, the four figures shuttled through the crowd like ghosts!

Because Zhang Nuo had a deep understanding of the Instant Movement Technique after entering the Ninth Layer, Xuanyuan Jie could not even catch a glimpse of his back in terms of movement techniques! Although there were a few opportunities to severely injure Zhang Nuo, they were all dodged by his super-fast movement technique!

Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, two hours later, Zhang Nuo was still ferocious! If it weren't for the Restrictions set up by the two Array Masters nearby, more than half of these people would likely have died at his hands!

Even so, within those two hours, three Anti-Immortal Faction cultivators had fallen! Only now did the group have to believe in the strength of a Ninth Layer cultivator! More than a dozen people attacking one, and they still hadn't severely injured him!

Xuanyuan Jie felt even more anxious; continuing to fight like this was not a solution, and if Zhang Nuo killed a few more people, the Anti-Immortal Faction would immediately be in a disadvantageous position!

Thinking of this, he sent a sound transmission to the two Array Masters on the periphery, and both nodded in agreement! At the same time, they shook the Array Disks in their hands, and the powerful Restrictions around them erupted with several balls of light, pouncing toward Zhang Nuo like raindrops!

These balls of light were only the size of a fist and appeared in different colors! They were extremely fast and possessed immense power! Zhang Nuo swept them with his Divine Sense and muttered to himself: "Not good!"

With such dense balls of light, even if his movement technique were faster, it would be impossible to dodge them all, especially with the True Immortals of the Anti-Immortal Faction waiting for an opportunity to launch sneak attacks; one careless move and he would be severely injured!

No sooner said than done! In the blink of an eye, the balls of light were right in front of Zhang Nuo, leaving him no time to think! He used the Instant Movement Technique several times in succession, dodging the few balls of light that were about to strike him!

But before he could even catch his breath, Xuanyuan Jie discovered an opportunity! His body transformed directly into a streak of white light; viewed from afar, it looked like a divine sword soaring into the sky, striking ruthlessly at Zhang Nuo's chest!

Zhang Nuo was greatly alarmed; he flicked his sleeves several times, and countless gale winds surged out, transforming into semi-transparent blades, attempting to use the power of his Xia Xia Xia Linggen to defend against Xuanyuan Jie's attack!

However, the white light that Xuanyuan Jie had transformed into was like a hot knife through butter, scattering the Wind Blades and arriving directly in front of Zhang Nuo! The white light on his body swirled, splitting into three Flying Swords several feet long! They slashed at Zhang Nuo in unison!

At the same time, the balls of light triggered by the Restrictions also arrived at Zhang Nuo's side! Furthermore, the Magic Treasures unleashed by several True Immortals surged toward him with great power!

Just as he wanted to use the Instant Movement Technique to escape again, Xuanyuan Jie's three giant swords seemed to possess the power of some law of heaven and earth, instantly freezing the surrounding space!

Countless booming sounds rang out on Zhang Nuo's body! The balls of light, the Flying Swords, and the Magic Treasures all slammed into his body as if they had found a vent!

For a time, Zhang Nuo was enveloped by countless rays of light, and the powerful energy emitted ripples like water waves, spreading out into the surrounding space!

The True Immortals of the Anti-Immortal Faction looked up at the light that had not dissipated for a long time high in the sky, their hearts filled with extreme shock! Having been struck by an attack of such intensity, even if Zhang Nuo was a Ninth Layer cultivator, the chances of survival were likely very low!

Xuanyuan Jie's figure landed back on the ground; at this moment, the white light on his body had dimmed significantly! He estimated that the force of this attack, even if it didn't kill Zhang Nuo, would be enough to severely injure him!

The light enveloping Zhang Nuo slowly dissipated, and one could see a figure standing motionless high in the sky, with black and white Qi currents flowing over the surface of his body!

Upon seeing this scene, the members of the Anti-Immortal Faction all gasped; from the outside, Zhang Nuo's clothes weren't even torn!

"Yin and Yang Qi! How is this possible? Even with the protection of Yin and Yang Qi, it is impossible for him to be completely uninjured!"

Xuanyuan Jie roared almost madly! Although Zhang Nuo in mid-air had used the Yin and Yang Qi to defend against these attacks, the remaining force had been borne by his own body!

The blood in his body surged, and he could no longer hold back a mouthful of blood, which sprayed directly out of his mouth! The danger of death had once again affected his state of mind! It felt vaguely as if he could touch the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm if he reached out, but this feeling was very ethereal and could not be captured tangibly!

At this time, Xuan Jin and Qiongqi had both returned to his side!

"Master!"

"It is no matter! I have a feeling that I am about to break through; you do not need to intervene for a while, leave it to me! If you discover signs of me advancing, protect me immediately!"

Zhang Nuo did not let Xuan Jin continue speaking; his figure flashed as he charged down toward the members of the Anti-Immortal Faction below! To find life in death, to destroy the current physical body and rebuild the immortal body with the supreme Dao—this was the only way to break through to the Great Luo True Immortal realm!

After realizing this, Zhang Nuo became even more reckless, not even dodging attacks he could have avoided, but instead meeting them head-on with his body!

This method of fighting by actively taking hits was something no one had ever heard of! However, since Zhang Nuo was willing, it played right into the wishes of the Anti-Immortal Faction's True Immortals! They unleashed their Magic Treasures one by one, directing them all at Zhang Nuo!

And Zhang Nuo, utilizing the strength of his physical body, took the attacks of the Magic Treasures while simultaneously killing cultivators! The battle had reached a white-hot stage by now!

After a day, Zhang Nuo's body was already stained red with blood, while the Anti-Immortal Faction had also lost several True Immortals; at this moment, including Xuanyuan Jie, there were fewer than six left!

This result was enough to shock the entire True Immortal World! To kill several True Immortals with the strength of one person could be said to be far more than the number of True Immortals who fell in the War of Seizing Heaven!

However, Zhang Nuo was also severely injured, and the Taiji Divine Sea within his body had long since dried up!

"He is at the end of his rope! Everyone, give him your full-force attack!"

Although Xuanyuan Jie was no better off than Zhang Nuo, they had more people on their side! After a few of them exchanged glances, their figures flashed and spread out! At the same time, the only remaining Array Master used his final strength to push the Restriction attacks to the maximum!

Several beams of light shot out toward Zhang Nuo from all directions, and Xuanyuan Jie grabbed at the void in front of him with both hands, revealing two cyan Talismans half a foot in size!

Now, Zhang Nuo did not even have the strength to use the Instant Movement Technique, allowing the several beams of light to slam into his body! Afterward, Xuanyuan Jie's two cyan Talismans also transformed into cyan light and struck his body!

Several loud, rumbling explosions rang out, and Zhang Nuo was blasted thousands of miles away, but as his figure flew backward, there was not a hint of pain on his face; instead, a smile of relief appeared!

"Qiongqi! Xuan Jin, protect me!"

Using the last trace of Spirit Power in his body, Zhang Nuo sent a sound transmission to the two Spirit Beasts! The two figures in mid-air immediately flashed and landed in front of Zhang Nuo!

One could see that at this moment, Zhang Nuo no longer looked human! His body was dyed red with blood! He sat cross-legged in mid-air with great difficulty! His hands formed two Dharma seals!

"Haha! So what if you are at the Ninth Layer? Haven't you still fallen into the hands of this Immortal Lord?"

But before Xuanyuan Jie's laughter could even stop, he discovered Zhang Nuo's strange actions; although he didn't know what the other party was doing, it certainly wouldn't be anything good! Xuanyuan Jie immediately ordered everyone to go all out to kill Zhang Nuo!

However, the attacks of these people were all blocked by Xuan Jin and Qiongqi! The people of the Anti-Immortal Faction had lost a lot of Spirit Power due to the previous battle, so for a time, they had no way to deal with these two Spirit Beasts!
