Chapter 1335 - 1335: Battle Between the Two Sects (Update 1)

Qiqi's words were naturally not heard by Liu Zixuan and the others.

However, although Liu Zixuan hasn't spent much time with Qiqi, he always feels that Qiqi will not change.

At this moment, they had already walked out of Ghost Marsh, out of the Southwest region, stepping into the Southeast region.

Liu Zixuan is relatively familiar with this place, as it was where he first arrived from the ruins passage.

Moreover, according to his estimation, this is also their last stop in the journey of the ruins.

After all, other regions have already been visited, and the Northeast region is where the demon race is suppressed. Not to mention him, ninety-nine percent of those who enter the ruins won't gain any benefits there.

The remaining one percent refers to those few Unity Realm experts.

But even Unity Realm in the area where the demon race is suppressed only has a slight advantage over them and can't achieve much.

Returning here this time, Liu Zixuan has a lot of things to do.

Do his best to prevent martial artists from other countries from taking treasures out of the ancient ruins.

Go to the Thousand Saints Tomb to take the item that the old guardian on the sixteenth floor of the tower told Liu Zixuan, and after leaving the ruins, find Penglai Island to deliver the token to Zither Melody.

Whether big or small tasks, almost all are piled here in the Southeast region.

Furthermore, judging by various signs, Jiang Yifan and those Unity Realm experts have nearly all gathered in this area.

Undoubtedly, the last remaining stop will also be a tough nut for Liu Zixuan to crack!

"It seems someone is fighting over there!" Zhao Yi pointed at the entrance to Hundred Immortals Forest ahead of them and said.

Liu Zixuan looked over to where he pointed, and indeed, there's a significant number of people there.

"Let's go and check it out." Liu Zixuan said with a smile.

"Going over at this time? It might cause trouble. How about we handle the important tasks first?" Luo Xi suggested.

"There's only this Southeast region left, and there's no one more familiar with this area than me, so it can avoid some troubles. Besides, they've all gathered here. Do you think we can manage to avoid the rest of the issues?" Liu Zixuan smirked and took the lead to walk forward.

Sword Demon glanced at Luo Xi and said while walking, "Zixuan is right. Many things are unavoidable; we might as well face them directly."

Luo Xi nodded slightly, "I am just afraid another strong expert like Ying Gou will appear."

"Such experts were extremely rare even during ancient times. There won't be that many here." Sword Demon smiled meaningfully, "Besides, didn't you notice the changed aura of Zixuan after emerging from the Black Fog Domain?"

Luo Xi was taken aback, having only worried before without really looking at him. Now, gazing at Liu Zixuan's back, she faintly sensed a presence more powerful than the Life and Death Realm.

She couldn't help running over to whisper, "Have you broken through to the Unity Realm?"

"Just a tiny bit off. Now, I'm slightly stronger than a Half-Step Unity Realm, but a little weaker than a true Unity Realm." Liu Zixuan laughed.

"You rascal." Luo Xi rolled her eyes at Liu Zixuan. This guy often appears weak, but during battles, he always surprises everyone!

By the time they had finished talking, they had arrived by a big tree, less than a hundred meters from the people clashing together.

Among those fighting, one side was not stranger to them.

It was clearly people from the Angel Sect, led by Mos Ivan and all its strong members. On the opposite side, their numbers were slightly fewer, but their combat power was formidable.

Their cultivation techniques leaned towards those of the Divine Court Sect's martial artists.

Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow, "Didn't expect there would still be so many martial artists from the Divine Court Sect after killing some in the Yudou Mountain Range and later in Beast Forest."

Sword Demon said quietly, "After all, it's one of the deeply rooted top sects, how could they all perish in one go? Most of those in the Yudou Mountain Range were elite disciples and Elder-level ones. If my guess is correct, here should be the Sect Leader of the Divine Court Sect and its most formidable elders or knights."

"Whatever the case, these are all that's left of the Divine Court Sect, right!" Tiger laughed.

Sword Demon nodded, "Correct, apart from our guess, there's one more thing that can confirm this."

"What thing?" Everyone asked.

Sword Demon pointed to the opposite side of the Divine Court Sect experts, "It's the Angel Sect people. Since ancient times, the Divine Court Sect and Angel Sect have been irreconcilable. They've openly and secretly fought for years, never acknowledging each other's existence. Now with the Divine Court Sect suffering significant losses here in Star Sea, the Angel Sect naturally wants to destroy them at all costs."

"Generally, the Angel Sect wouldn't act rashly because they know powerful existences back the Divine Court Sect, like the old ancestor we met before. But choosing to act here means they've already considered the consequences. Haven't you noticed? Almost the entire Angel Sect is here!"

Liu Zixuan nodded, "Sword Demon Senior's analysis is spot on. It's essentially a battle for survival between Western Martial Realm forces."

"Who wouldn't agree? Later, there will probably only be the Angel Sect left in this world." Sword Demon laughed.

"I don't necessarily think so." Liu Zixuan squinted with a smile.

"What? Are you considering taking action against the Angel Sect after they've exhausted each other?" Sword Demon asked.

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "We're not the only ones sitting and watching. People from the Spirit Institute and Void Mountain Sect are nearby, and I've sensed more than one presence of Unity Realm experts."

Since stepping into the Half-Step Unity Realm, Liu Zixuan's sensing ability had already transformed.

Far beyond what was previously possible in the Life and Death Realm.

Hence, he chose to go openly watch the battle earlier because he discovered other martial artists were also observing.

With everyone watching, the purposes are likely narrowed down to two.

One is ready to act after they've weakened each other to reap the benefits, and the other simply enjoys the spectacle, preparing to snatch some treasures.

It's worth noting that the journey through the ancient ruins is nearing its end. Currently, nearly all experts hold one or multiple treasures.

Everyone went through a lot to travel to Star Sea, to these ancient ruins, with the biggest and sole purpose being the treasures.

This level of martial artist finds it extremely hard to break through further. Although their high realm gives an impression of strong vitality, encountering a stronger expert flips that perception. No one wishes to waste a lifetime of cultivation by being crippled or killed.

Acquiring more treasures naturally equates to having more survival cards.

Thus, treasures are of paramount importance! As for the grudges between the Divine Court Sect and Angel Sect, in the eyes of others, it's merely a spectacle!
