It was known that because of that entity, countless cultivators in their world had perished without a trace.
The most important aspect was that they, who stood in opposition to that entity, had now chosen to pledge allegiance to it, which seemed utterly unreliable no matter how one looked at it.
Moreover, allying with such an entity, could it ever be without a price?
Did they really think this world was already dead?
However, the events unfolding before them forced Shang Heyun and Kong Ming to consider this possibility.
After all, if it wasn’t for such a situation, how could the Three Suns Sect and the Chu family mingle with those demonic monsters without any issues?
“Bastard!
If that’s true, those guys from the Three Suns Sect truly deserve to die!”
It was evident that Shang Heyun was quite hot-tempered.
His anger became uncontrollable after contemplating the possibilities that Blue Moon’s words had suggested.
Boom!
Just then, a loud noise echoed between heaven and earth.
Above in the sky, two incredibly powerful figures appeared, catching the eyes of Blue Moon and the others.
Seeing those two people, Blue Moon, Shang Heyun, and Kong Ming’s pupils involuntarily constricted.
Kong Ming couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, “Hu Wentian, Luo Batian! It’s them!”
In that moment, the hearts of the three present sank deeply.
They weren’t fools; they knew very well what the appearance of Hu Wentian and Luo Batian signified.
It meant they were here to completely annihilate the Rising Sun Hall.
Most importantly, did the appearance of these two indicate that the Great Ling Imperial Palace of the Central Plain and other sects had also chosen to pledge allegiance to that entity?
If so, their Nine Essences Cultivation World was likely in real danger.
As they were pondering, Hu Wentian and Luo Batian had already approached the great array of Mount Rising Sun.
A smile appeared on Hu Wentian’s face.
His gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of protective arrays, falling directly upon Blue Moon, Shang Heyun, and Kong Ming.
Hu Wentian suddenly spoke, “Fellow Daoists, I presume there’s no need for me to introduce myself. Today, General Luo and I have come here with one purpose – to offer the Rising Sun Hall one last opportunity, a chance for survival.” “One last opportunity? A chance for survival?”
Hearing Hu Wentian’s words, a cold smile appeared on Shang Heyun’s face.
Blue Moon and Kong Ming remained expressionless.
At their level of cultivation, it was almost impossible to be affected by others or external factors.
“Hu Wentian, your so-called opportunity, a way out, wouldn’t happen to be us submitting to you, would it?”
Shang Heyun couldn’t help but coldly retort with a sneer.
This caused Hu Wentian to frown slightly before turning to look at Blue Moon and Kong Ming.
“The two of you must have seen the current situation.
With the strength we have shown, breaking through the protective array of your Rising Sun Hall is only a matter of time.
Do you really wish to let your disciples and followers perish with you in this battle?”
Hearing his words, Blue Moon, Kong Ming, and Shang Heyun exchanged a glance.
Finally, Blue Moon’s beautiful eyes suddenly shone with a cold light, her gaze sharp as she looked at Hu Wentian and said, “Hu Wentian, tell me the truth. Has the Great Ling Imperial Palace and the various sects chosen to side with that entity from the outer world?”
“Huh…?”
Blue Moon’s reaction slightly surprised Hu Wentian.
But soon, the smile on his face slowly faded.
He said indifferently, “You need not concern yourself with that matter. Now, I ask you, are you willing to submit to us?”
A hint of indignation appeared in Blue Moon’s eyes, followed by a mocking tone, “I never thought that the mighty Great Ling Imperial Palace and Myriad Forms Sect would choose to be dogs.
Do you really think that what you are doing now will go unnoticed by others?”
“So it seems you are unwilling to accept the opportunity we are offering you?”
A hint of murderous intent appeared on Hu Wentian’s face.
Luo Tianba, standing beside him, had his long spears buzzing, emitting a terrifying glow. The space around it rippled in waves.
“If they are so stubborn, Elder Hu, there’s nothing more to say.
After today, there will be no more Rising Sun Hall!”
Boom!
As his words fell, Luo Tianba’s spear suddenly transformed into a huge mountain peak, which roared down towards Mount Rising Sun with overwhelming force.
Seeing this, Hu Wentian also ceased his words.
He raised his hand and waved.
A dark disc suddenly expanded into a small world, crashing down towards Mount Rising Sun with terrifying force.
At the same time.
The cultivators from the Three Suns Sect, the Chu family, and the Radiance Sword Sect, who were outside the great array of Mount Rising Sun, also made their moves.
Among them, the demonic monsters were the most ferocious.
They seemed to have no fear of death, recklessly charging at the protective array of Mount Rising Sun in a suicidal manner.
Rumble!
The void trembled.
The entire protective array of Mount Rising Sun shook violently.
Its light flickered rapidly.
Blue Moon, Shang Heyun, and Kong Ming’s expressions changed slightly.
Blue Moon said, “This is bad!
The demonic Qi on those demonic monsters seems to carry a corrupting power.
It can actually affect the operation of the array slightly.”
Shang Heyun and Kong Ming also noticed this issue and felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
Such a situation might not pose a big problem in the short term.
However, if it persisted, the protective array’s spiritual light would inevitably be contaminated.
Over time, the operation and power of the entire array would inevitably decline drastically.
They must first eliminate those demonic monsters.
The three of them came up with a plan.
Without hesitation, three Soul Formation attacks were launched through the array, targeting the demonic monsters.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
However, what caused Blue Moon and the others’ expressions to change again was that their attacks were all blocked by Hu Wentian and Luo Tianba outside the array.
They were determined to protect the demonic monsters at all costs.
This made Blue Moon and the others finally confirm that the sects, dynasties, and families of the Central Plain and the Eastern End had indeed pledged allegiance to that entity.
The reason why they were confident that they could break the Rising Sun Hall’s Mountain-protecting Array was probably because of those demonic monsters.
The contamination of the spiritual light by the demonic monsters was too severe.
Theoretically, if there were enough demonic monsters, even a top-grade Level 6 array could be contaminated and collapse.
Boom, boom, boom!
At this point, the battle became even more intense.
Blue Moon, Shang Heyun, and Kong Ming put forth all their strength, using the power of the array to combat Hu Wentian and others outside.
However, what weighed on their minds was that after so long, including themselves, the cultivators of Rising Sun Hall were unable to do anything about the demonic monsters.
Whenever they targeted the demonic monsters, numerous cultivators would appear to block their attacks.
Over time, their side became more and more passive, and the morale of the Rising Sun Hall cultivators started to wane.
“This is no good; at this rate, we have no hope of winning.”
At this moment, a Rising Sun Hall cultivator named Han Zhengyong, who was at the seventh level of the Golden Core and was in charge of presiding over a certain part of the array, could not help but speak with a pessimistic expression.
Hearing his words, the expressions of the other Rising Sun Hall cultivators also darkened.
Only Nangong Hai and Nangong Yao’s eyes flashed fiercely as they looked at Han Zhengyong,
“Junior Zhou, what are you talking about? With the three ancestors here, it’s only a matter of time before we drive those people back.
Everyone, keep your spirits up! We’re conceding defeat even before the enemy has made a significant move.
This is hardly acceptable.”
