Tell Me, Did You See It Clearly?!

Splat! A middle-aged man was run through the chest by a sword, yet he reached out, seized his foe, and plunged a broken blade straight into the other man's throat! As the life force swiftly drained from the grimacing man, his enemy struggled frantically, but to no avail. In the end, both plummeted from the void and crashed onto a floating island. Tang Ru's noticeably strained voice split into hundreds of strands, echoing in the ears of every cultivator. His mind was stretched taut under the immense strain. He had to monitor the battlefields across two domains every single moment while constantly giving guidance to everyone. Such a burden was even heavier than what Yu Shan had shouldered before. Blood streamed from Tang Ru's nose, yet he doggedly held on. He knew that as long as he kept up the effort, the casualties among the cultivators of the Seventh Domain would be that much lower! Even as Tang Ru fought through the strain with a deathly pale face, the enemy cultivators were simply too numerous. So numerous that even Li Guanqi felt he could never finish killing them all! A full fifteen cultivators besieged him; whenever he killed one, another immediately took their place. Meanwhile, Song Yuan seized this opening to slaughter the cultivators of the Seventh Domain with wild abandon. Despite the boosts from Gu Li's runes, this battle remained extraordinarily grueling. By now, Li Guanqi was drenched in blood. The scale armor over his body was shattered in numerous places, and blood flowed freely down his skin. His eyes were bloodshot. He knew that if this continued, their sacrifices would do nothing more than buy a little time. At that thought, Li Guanqi unleashed his full might, his primal energy surging more violently than ever before! "Heart Demon Control!" In that instant, black flames swept across hundreds of zhang of the firmament. The cultivators besieging him momentarily lost their senses. Seizing the chance, Li Guanqi twisted his wrist and stepped forward with explosive force! Thunder shrieked as lightning serpents coiled around the cultivators beside him. The Red Lotus sword let out a resonant cry and erupted in an instant! "Red Lotus: World's End!" A single horizontal sweep carved out a crescent arc of sword light a hundred zhang across, resembling a full moon! Boom! A terrifying explosion rang out as the ring-shaped thunderous sword light flashed and vanished. With one strike, fifteen foes perished! Pulling away, Li Guanqi instantly appeared beside Ye Mohan. Reaching out with his right hand, he crushed the skull of the enemy flanking him. Before anyone could react, his figure flickered again, and a dense array of colossal thunder gates descended from the heavens! Blood trickled from Li Guanqi's nose, his face turning pale. A full thirty giant thunder gates crashed down from above! His tattered robes whipped loudly in the wind, wrapped in lightning. His long hair whipped about wildly, the veins in his neck bulging as his face flushed purple-red from the strain. "Aaaaargh!" "Suppress!" All thirty giant gates flared with dazzling purple radiance simultaneously. Separated from one another by ten thousand zhang, the gates formed a battlefield spanning a hundred li. Under this immense pressure and the torrential lightning, one floating island after another in the void blew apart in succession. At that moment, the strength of every cultivator from the Immortal Realm was forcibly suppressed by twenty percent! "Big Brother!" "Big Brother!" Worry flashed through the eyes of Ye Feng and the others. Li Guanqi's throat bobbed slightly as he forced back a mouthful of blood and waved his hand. His chest heaved violently as he gasped for air. Bang! Cao Yan was blasted back by several attacks. His back was drenched in blood, the wounds so deep the bone showed, nearly severing his spine. Disheveled hair, matted with blood, stuck to his forehead. His face pale, Cao Yan did not look back, standing guard three feet before Li Guanqi. Cao Yan's arms trembled; his stamina was pushed almost to its limit. Even with Gu Li's runes helping him recover, it could not keep pace with his depletion. The inscribed talismans in Gu Li's hands were nearly exhausted, and the storage armlets on his arms had almost entirely shattered. Though covered in blood, Gu Li had not suffered many physical wounds. Yet his face was as white as paper, completely drained of color, his lips pale. His hands trembled uncontrollably, veins bulged on his forehead, and his head throbbed as if it were splitting open. Xiao Chen was in no better shape. Seizing the opening while the enemy was suppressed, he charged at the very forefront with spear in hand like a god of war. Right then, a voice rang in everyone's ears. "Sun Changlin is surrounded!" Tang Ru's urgent voice echoed beside them. Xiao Chen, who was still cutting a bloody path forward, froze. Turning around, his pupils contracted sharply as he saw Sun Changlin besieged by three cultivators! He held deep respect for the old man. Since childhood, he had never known the love of grandparents. Sun Changlin's presence had been like that of a warm elder. Usually, the old man had a gentle smile and would always drag him and Cao Yan along for drinks. The moment Cao Yan heard the warning, his body transformed into a burst of flame and shot out instantly! To Cao Yan, familial affection was precious beyond measure, and he refused to stand by and watch Sun Changlin die. Yet by now, Sun Changlin was in dire peril. His three foes wore savage expressions, their flurry of attacks far beyond what the elder could withstand. Sun Changlin's armor was already in tatters, and numerous cracks ran along his silver spear. Seeing the two rushing toward him from the distance, a look of gratification surfaced in his eyes. A spiritual glow flickered between his brows; he had evidently prepared his lifelong legacy to pass on to Xiao Chen. Clang! Clang, clang, clang! The silver spear danced like a swimming dragon, its strikes fierce and swift, bold and sweeping yet steady as an abyss. "Hahaha! Xiao, you brat! Watch closely—this is the spear strike I spent my entire life comprehending!" The moment his words fell, the old man's aura completely transformed! Fierce, domineering! The silver spear erupted with blinding light, instantly transforming into ten thousand spear beams that burst forth. Boom! Spear beams filled the sky like rain, the sweeping silver light blending together across the firmament like a celestial river of stars. "Spear Dance: Chaotic Vault!" Boom! The sky full of silver radiance enveloped all three enemies. One cultivator failed to dodge in time and was instantly swallowed by the thousands of spear beams, his body blowing apart into a cloud of blood mist! Bang! This sky-spanning display of silver spear shadows seemed to be the final bloom of the old man's life. He had exerted every ounce of his strength to bring out the full power of this single strike. Just as the spear shadows began to fade, the old man's arms burst into clouds of blood mist, unable to endure the immense force. His gaze turned resolute as he looked in Xiao Chen's direction and roared: "Did you see it clearly?!" Xiao Chen said nothing; he simply pushed his speed to the absolute limit. The Great Sky Haze Flame erupted with dual-colored fire, nearly lighting up the sky like day. On the other side, blue-purple flames also claimed half the void. Tears welled in Xiao Chen's eyes. Seeing the other two foes lunging toward the defenseless old man, his eyes went wide with fury. "Old Sixth!" Gu Li raised his trembling hands and growled, "I heard you!" The moment the words left his mouth, bright silver-white light flashed continuously over Cao Yan, Xiao Chen, and Sun Changlin! Sun Changlin's body slipped through the blades and swords, teleporting hundreds of zhang away. The sight stunned the two enemies for a brief instant, but such a trick could only stall them for a fleeting breath... In their eyes, a distance of several hundred zhang would take less than a single breath to cross.
