Chapter 2392 - 2359: Xianmen Sect Finally Sees Hope for Transcendence

At this moment, a never-before-seen variable emerged in the current Starry Sky.

That was the mixed battalions of Taoist Soldiers belonging to the Emperors of history, even the Forbidden Zone Emperors; the Sleeping Worlds and Sleeping Forbidden Zones of those many historical Emperors had limits, and as time flowed on, the number of Taoist Soldier Puppets they could sustain ceaselessly diminished. To continue existing, they would periodically discard a portion of their Taoist Soldiers.

This was the source of these Emperor Taoist Soldiers appearing here!

Emperor Taoist Soldiers, Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Dao Soldiers!

Especially the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Dao Soldiers!

Did the appearance of Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Dao Soldiers merely represent a few hundred million, at most several tens of billions of elite, decayed cultivators?

No!

Absolutely not just that!

What emerged along with these Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Dao Soldiers was the pinnacle Immortal Path Military Formation technology of the brilliant Immortal Dynasty eras in which those Forbidden Area Ancient Emperors had ruled, the Immortal Path Military Formation technology of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperors themselves!

This was the true reason why all Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty cultivators and Quasi-Emperors present felt their hearts violently shaken.

The cultivators of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty knew clearly the source of their own power.

Tracing back to the most fundamental root, it was not that their talent and aptitude far surpassed cultivators of other Immortal Dynasties, it was not that they were more daring in battle and slaughter, nor that their wisdom transcended the age.

No, these were not the primary reasons.

The reason why the Taoist Soldiers of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Dynasty, the Qilin Immortal Dynasty and the Jiyan Immortal Dynasty were utterly unable to withstand them was, at the most fundamental level, because the Immortal Path technology of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty far outstripped that of these three great Immortal Dynasties.

On the surface, all were walking the Immortal Path, all were Immortal Dao Civilizations, yet the height of the civilizations themselves was utterly different!

Could a civilization of slash-and-burn agriculture be compared side by side with a civilization of steam industry?

And now, the people were still the same people, still the base stock of the Qilin Immortal Dynasty and the Jiyan Immortal Dynasty, plus several trillion mixed regiments of Emperor troops, and the Blood-and-Flesh Brood Worlds forged by the Emperor’s Immortal Techniques in vast numbers. Those original cultivators had been reorganized through a completely new set of Army Formation laws, becoming something wholly different!

This reorganization contained many problems: the Cultivation Methods of cultivators from different Immortal Dynasties were different, the standard frequencies of Military Array Heavy Artifacts were different, the modes of Divine Soul linkage were different, all sorts of laws and standards were different... clearly a motley-troop army. Yet all these shortcomings were, for the moment, cloaked under the empowerment of the Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Immortal Dynasty’s Army Formation technology.

"This..."

"This is Army Formation technology that surpasses the entire level of the current era!"

"This kind of Army Formation technology..."

Yuan, Cheng Zhen, Lu Yuan and a whole cluster of outstanding figures of the Xianmen Sect could not help but roar madly, their eyeballs bloodshot.

Army Formations—the very cornerstone of the Xianmen Sect!

Since its founding, Xianmen Sect had walked the path of encirclement and slaughter through Army Formations, loathing individual heroism, always acting in groups. Even after they obtained the most top-tier Sword Dao inheritance of the current age, this remained unchanged; within Xianmen Sect, cultivators who walked the Great Sun Sword Cultivation path were few in number—one must know, this was the path of the current Human Emperor, given without any reservation, yet they remained unmoved!

However, now, when they saw those Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor Dao Soldiers serving as officers at all levels among the Immortal Dynasty Dao Soldiers of each Immortal Dynasty, and in an extremely short time ruthlessly seizing total command authority over all Immortal Dynasty Dao Soldiers, with not a single Immortal Dynasty Taoist Soldier resisting, the outstanding figures of Xianmen Sect went insane, panting, their bloodshot eyes raging like mad bulls.

This was a brand-new Army Formation road!

This was the transcendent road of a Xianmen Sect that was founded upon Army Formations!

On one side, many Taishang Great Sun Sword Cultivators wore strange expressions.

At this moment, the cultivators of Xianmen Sect showed signs of madness surpassing even them, frenzied yet cold, entirely unlike the habitually ice-cold, mild, rational bearing of Magic Cultivation.

This was a kind of terrifying, fanatical agitation: fearless of death, disregarding everything, refusing to stop short of the goal.

In that instant, these Xianmen Sect Magic cultivators resembled a certain person.

"Indeed,"

"The Human Emperor emerged from this Sect; this is not without reason..."

Many Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty cultivators found a thought inexplicably rising in their hearts.

The Emperor mixed Chaotic Army Formation rumbled outward, its heavy pressure scouring the heavens and earth, smoothing away all turbulence under heaven. In an instant, these Emperor Taoist Soldiers completed a metamorphosis, silent and voiceless, like Mount Tai itself sweeping horizontally toward the hundred-trillion-strong army of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty.

"Such Army Formation technology belongs to Xianmen Sect!"

"Belongs to the citizens!"

"Xianmen Sect shall prevail!"

Yuan and the other outstanding figures of Xianmen Sect gave long howls, triggering the collective will of the citizen fleets in echo, setting heaven and earth to tremble.

Since ancient times, the citizen fleets had never feared battle on the field; the Xianmen Sect’s military soul had always been to triumph through weakness over strength, to always face enemies far stronger than themselves.

At this moment, Yuan and the others forgot everything, forcing the Great Sun Sword Dao Soldiers and all Immortal Dynasty armies to charge the Emperor coalition, for the Nirvana of Xianmen Sect’s path.

For the sake of the future road of Xianmen Sect, the citizens had never balked at death!

All Xianmen cultivators forgot the threat of the Ancient Emperors, investing themselves wholly into the war against the Emperor coalition. This stretch of heaven and earth became a brutal blood-and-flesh grinding mill, grinding down the bones and blood of Xianmen cultivators and Immortal Dynasty cultivators alike, grinding away vast numbers of Taoist Soldiers in the Emperor coalition. Not once in a million years had the collective will of the citizen fleets ever been as cold and blazing as in this single moment.

As the two vast armies slaughtered each other in misery, the Qilin Ancient Emperor and the Jiyan Ancient Emperor watched with frozen gazes.

Then, even though facing mere ants, the two struck at once.

Clashing head-on, engaging in Holy Sword Fights, attacking the enemy’s strongest point—that was the way of Sword Cultivators, not theirs.

Boom!

"Roar!"

"Roar, roar, roar..."

The Qilin Ancient Emperor raised his head in a long, sky-shaking howl.

Five-colored radiance flared and revived upon his body, madly devouring the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth. Innumerable Tao Rules circled about him as a Qilin Immortal Body, infinite in conceptual grandeur, re-manifested between heaven and earth, even stirring resonance with the Three Thousand Great Paths of the Endless Starry Sky. Between the long horns of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, an Emperor Crown that seemed half illusory, half real slowly congealed.

The Star Sky Heavenly Dao of the Endless Starry Sky still remembered this Qilin Ancient Emperor of history!

Within the Three Thousand Heavenly Dao of the Endless Starry Sky, traces remained of the impact wrought by this Ancient Emperor of the Qilin Immortal Dynasty. He had once been invincible for an entire era, invincible across a heaven-and-earth of all living beings for sixty million years!

"Suppress!"

The Starry Sky blossomed with the Great Dao sound of the Qilin Ancient Emperor, the jade words of a Saint.

The hooves of the Qilin Emperor descended like Heavenly Dao Jade Pillars to suppress and slaughter the Immortal Gate’s Ten Deep Space Fleets—this was the command center of the hundred-trillion-strong army of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty.

Heaven and earth twisted into a single mass in that instant!

As though beneath the jade hooves there appeared a cosmic black hole, a cosmic singularity. The Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty clearly had a hundred trillion troops, yet under the hooves of the Qilin Ancient Emperor they all became duckweed in the wind. The hundred trillion Immortal Dynasty cultivators, together with the Starry Sky where they stood, lost all control and surged toward the singularity beneath the Qilin Ancient Emperor’s hooves. Within that singularity there existed a terrifying pull that reached to the very origin of the Endless Starry Sky Path.

The Qilin Ancient Emperor, the Qilin Immortal Dynasty—their Great Dao was named Force!

Pure brute force!

With berserk brute force, they crushed and shattered the myriad Great Dao of heaven and earth!

This heaven-piercing, earth-shaking Divine Ability Immortal Technique was unleashed at a moment of infinite subtlety, striking with extreme precision at a single flaw that surfaced when the Taoist Soldiers of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty and the Emperor coalition were locked in stalemate. Seizing the opportunity, he hammered that one point, intent on annihilating, in a single instant, all hundred trillion cultivators of the Taishang Great Sun Immortal Dynasty!

For an Ancient Emperor to strike personally in a sneak attack!

An Ancient Emperor, both so mighty and so versed in the arts of war—who under heaven could compare?
