The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2584: Chapter 2584: Scorching Collision

People from Hanqiu Mansion disembarked from the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat; they did not approach either Hongmeng City or the Yanwang Palace Coalition.

There were seven of them, suspended over that part of the sky, yet just these few people carried a heavy and irresistible aura of power.

Even the people inside Hongmeng City, including Jing Yan, noticed these seven figures. Across the vast distance, the eyes of Jing Yan and other strong individuals naturally landed on these seven powerful figures from Hanqiu Mansion.

"Hanqiu Mansion, they’re from Hanqiu Mansion!" Chairman Meng Kun uttered in a low voice.

Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed.

The previous moment, Jing Yan saw the symbol on the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat and knew these people were from Hanqiu Mansion. Since arriving in Kunling Heaven, Jing Yan had not interacted with people from Hanqiu Mansion, nor had any member of Hanqiu Mansion entered the Thunder Domain or Hongmeng City. Ordinary forces scrambled desperately to procure several Qianhe Zhenye elixirs, yet nobody from Hanqiu Mansion had contacted Jing Yan.

Indeed, even Tianbei Sect hadn’t deliberately contacted Jing Yan because of the Qianhe Zhenye, as Hanqiu Mansion, having a long-standing Immortal Emperor, might not value such elixirs. Immortal Emperor level experts have the ability to enhance the purity of a cultivator’s Divine Soul Body, though it may involve certain risks. Yet, Hanqiu Mansion members, all selected by the Immortal Emperor, boast exceptional talents; if they couldn’t withstand Divine Soul purification, they likely wouldn’t have been chosen.

"What is Hanqiu Mansion doing here?" Grandmaster Lan Zan’s face turned serious.

"City Lord Jing Yan, have you ever interacted with people from Hanqiu Mansion?" Chairman Meng Kun asked Jing Yan.

"Never, today is my first time seeing members of Hanqiu Mansion." Jing Yan shook his head and replied.

"If that’s the case... it seems somewhat ominous! However, these seven individuals haven’t gone to where the Yanwang Palace Coalition is." Meng Kun exhaled while speaking.

As Jing Yan and others talked about the members of Hanqiu Mansion, within the Yanwang Palace Coalition camp, Yu Hentian and other leaders were discussing why Hanqiu Mansion personnel had appeared suddenly. They, like those in Hongmeng City, were equally bewildered. Jing Yan hadn’t interacted with Hanqiu Mansion members, nor had Yu Hentian and the others, at least not in the recent millions of years, had close interactions with members of Hanqiu Mansion.

"Everyone, Hanqiu Mansion personnel haven’t entered Hongmeng City. If they came to assist Hongmeng City, they should have entered by now. Therefore, we should not be distracted by the presence of Hanqiu Mansion. Now, let’s focus our forces to execute the first bombardment on Hongmeng City!" Yu Hentian roared.

"Ready!"

"Hateful Sky Alliance Leader, let’s do this!"

The coalition leaders responded in unison and began channeling their energy within themselves.

The shadow formed by the Taiyin Annihilation Spear already enveloped the heavens. It seemed like the whole world was cloaked in dark attire. Under the assault of its mighty murderous aura, vegetation within a million-mile radius started to wilt, and the earth began to crack.

"Rise!" Yu Hentian bellowed.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Buzzing..."

Under Yu Hentian’s command, around twenty leaders drove their divine power towards the Taiyin Annihilation Spear with all their might. Each surge of fearsome power entered the Emperor Weapon, making the shadow it formed grow even more substantive. The laws within the heavens thickened, and even ordinary Taoist technique power and nature’s spiritual energy appeared to turn black.

"Drumming Soul Stealing!" Yu Hentian, controlling the Taiyin Annihilation Spear, shouted loudly.

Drumming Soul Stealing!

Jizhu Immortal Emperor’s killer move!

This trick, Drumming Soul Stealing, was embedded within the Taiyin Annihilation Spear. At this moment, under the divine power of Yu Hentian and many leaders, it erupted with an earth-shattering force.

Inside Hongmeng City, the Yanwang Palace Coalition, and even countless cultivators and adventurers afar, all watched that skyline where dense black lines swept down like silk rain.

These countless black lines crossed the vast sky, sweeping towards Hongmeng City’s direction.

Before the black lines reached Hongmeng City, Jing Yan, frowning, signaled the many Immortal Array Masters within the city. The Immortal Array Masters began to move swiftly, while numerous hidden Immortal Venerable within the city injected their divine power into one formation core after another guided by the Array Masters.

Generally, the operation of the city’s Big Array is powered by foundational resources like Black Crystal Stone. However, under such circumstances, the Big Array’s power couldn’t reach its strongest. Therefore, Jing Yan had prepared ahead by positioning numerous Immortal Venerate Realm cultivators at each formation core hub. When needed, these Immortal Venerable Realm cultivators could provide energy for the layered arrays under the guidance of the Array Masters.

As numerous Immortal Venerate Realm powerhouses infused their divine power into each formation core, Hongmeng City’s layered array burst into a sky full of light. This multitude of halos seemed like they were about to pierce through the black clouded sky.

From afar, one could clearly see the bright halo sustaining above Hongmeng City. Vast and surging power swiftly rose, spreading outward from Hongmeng City in all directions. This force brought a bit of warmth to the chilling and gloomy world.

At this moment, Jing Yan personally controlled the city’s strongest formation, with his divine power continuously pouring into the strongest formation control hub.

Finally...

The black silk rain formed by Drumming Soul Stealing unleashed from the Taiyin Annihilation Spear descended atop Hongmeng City. The black silk rain made contact with the city’s array.

"Sizzle! Sizzle!"

Strange noises spread. Hongmeng City’s layered array seemed like a massive ice block, while the black silk rain bore the scorching heat of a meteor. Visible to the naked eye, as the black silk rain touched the layers of formations, they incessantly penetrated one Guardian Array after another. Amidst the chilling killing intent, there was also an intense heat that threatened to incinerate all.

"So strong! As expected of... Emperor Weapon!" Jing Yan’s face was stern, his eyes fixed on the black death raining above, not daring to relax even slightly.

Hongmeng City’s Guardian Array was indeed very strong, even the most powerful Immortal Venerable found it tough to breach. However, facing the attack from the Emperor Weapon Taiyin Annihilation Spear, the city array appeared overwhelmed. This was because the spear was currently wielded by Yu Hentian; if it were the spear’s owner, Jizhu Immortal Emperor, attacking personally, Hongmeng City’s array might be pierced instantly, possibly razing the whole city flat with a single thrust.

"Terrifying! If my Golden Toad Commerce’s main city were here, it definitely wouldn’t withstand such a blow." Chairman Meng Kun commented with a sigh.
