Chapter 452: Chapter 231: Merits Are Indelible, Great Formation Suppression

Black Demon Sect.

The atmosphere was extremely intense as pairs of eyes watched the vanguard army stepping into the world passage.

The Black Demon Sect had destroyed many small worlds and was quite experienced in this.

The first step in invading a world is to understand the situation of the small world; at this time, relatively elite vanguard troops need to be dispatched. It can be said that those who can be selected for the vanguard army are among the best in the expeditionary army.

Their task is very simple; they first descend into the small world to explore the suppression of power by the small world and clarify the peak combat strength of the natives.

Sometimes, the vanguard army is enough to deal with a weaker small world by itself.

Once it is confirmed that there are no unexpected situations, the subsequent expeditionary army will arrive in full force.

They would sweep away the natives with resisting ability like a thunderbolt that catches one by surprise.

Then, it’s about plundering all valuable resources and treasures. Although the small worlds are barren, sometimes unexpected treasures are born.

Finally.

The most important goal of invading a small world is to establish altar arrays in it and offer them to the will of the Mountain and Sea Realm to receive rewards.

With such a process,

almost no small world can withstand it.

At this moment.

Those disciples looked at the vanguard army with somewhat envious eyes, for if world Jiazi 1673 was too weak, the vanguard army might cripple it, leaving them to only grab some spoils during the subsequent sweeping of the world.

However, there were some well-informed disciples of the Black Demon Sect whose eyes flickered.

They knew.

This small world was different from the past, having once severely damaged the then-thriving Golden Spirit Sect. It couldn’t be taken down easily, even the vanguard army might encounter resistance and danger, so these disciples with strength and background unanimously decided not to join the vanguard army.

Black Flame True Monarch and True Monarch Ziyun were also quietly waiting outside the Heaven-Reaching Mirror passage.

The atmosphere gradually became solemn.

True Monarch Ziyun’s eyes shifted, transmitting a teasing message with a smile:

"Brother Black Flame, we are in the same situation now. If there are any secrets, why not share them with your little sister? After success, perhaps we can join forces to usher in a new world?"

Black Flame True Monarch said indifferently:

"Sister, do not let our sect leader brother know of such talk, lest there be punishment. I have no secrets, just the desire to venture into the small world for a chance. Otherwise, who knows when I will have hope of reaching the Void Path Realm."

True Monarch Ziyun slightly pouted; the more Black Flame True Monarch spoke like this, the more convinced she was.

There must be something amiss.

She merely smiled faintly, determined in her heart to stick close to Black Flame True Monarch after descending into the small world, lest he take all the benefits for himself.

While the two were contemplating.

Suddenly.

The Heaven-Reaching Mirror burst forth with brilliance, and the deep whirlpool emitted invisible light trails that merged into the void, locking this space like an octopus.

"The world passage is secure; the vanguard army is about to reach the small world."

Everyone held their breath, waiting in anticipation, knowing that the situation would soon be revealed.

In front of Black Demon True Monarch, a Mirage Drum was placed, with another being carried by the Vanguard Army Commander. The two Mirage Drums could resonate their sound, transmitting information across the worlds in this manner.

...

Martial Realm.

At the moment when the Heaven-Reaching Mirror fully constructed the world passage, Ning Qi, who was sitting cross-legged on True Martial Mountain, immediately opened his eyes. His gaze was sharp, yet had a sense of relieved ease:

"At last, they have arrived!"

He could distinctly feel.

The Life Poison within the Martial Realm emitted a consistent wave, forming a large Tao Mark together with the aura of the Martial Saints, followed by a wide world passage being forcefully constructed over the Martial Realm.

"Just as I expected, this world passage is very stable. If I want to destroy it forcefully, it might take some time," Ning Qi carefully sensed, deciding to proceed with the original plan.

Let the invading enemies in first.

At this moment.

He realized there were about five thousand powerful cultivators rapidly traversing through, and after this group was teleported, the previously stable world passage trembled slightly, and the power within the Life Poison seemed to be greatly consumed.

Clearly, teleporting cultivators from the Spirit Realm to a small world was not without cost.

If Ning Qi were to destroy the passage now, it would be fruitless since the Life Poison Tao Mark has not been exhausted, and the enemy could spend some time rebuilding the passage, merely alerting them prematurely.

In this case.

It would be better to observe momentarily.

Let all the enemies in, like trapping a turtle in a jar.

In the Ancient Era, there were upwards of twenty thousand cultivators above the Martial Saint Realm arriving, and this time there would only be more, not less; this group might merely be scouts.

Ning Qi stood with hands behind his back, his gaze piercing through layers of space.

He raised an eyebrow, noticing that the batch of cultivators who just emerged from the world passage had disappeared, clearly using some Concealing Breath secret techniques or magical treasures, which made sense because during a world invasion, everything is under the world will’s shroud, and without such means, one would be limited everywhere.

Of course, Ning Qi could take some time to find them.

However, he didn’t need to do so.

In the next moment.

The mind of each Martial Saint stationed at the array’s core resonated with Ning Qi’s authoritative voice:

"The enemy is approaching, guard the world!"

The Martial Saints, who were tuning and comprehending, simultaneously opened their eyes, with a sliver of astonishment in them, followed by a fierce battle intent.

At each array core, deafening roars resounded:
