At this moment, Li Guanqi also arrived in the void beyond the realm. In an instant, everyone's gazes converged on him.
The void trembled violently as countless colorful streams of light surged toward Li Guanqi in an attack!
The terrifying pressure carried by these strikes was immensely heavy; the sheer weight of it suppressed Li Guanqi so thoroughly that he could not move a single inch!
This was the first time since stepping into the Ascension realm that a feeling of fear involuntarily welled up within him!
In the past, he had always known that immortals were powerful.
The immortals who descended to the lower realm were merely suppressed by the Heavenly Dao.
Yet now...
Faced with attacks from so many Heavenly Immortal realm cultivators, he was completely powerless to resist, like a lamb awaiting slaughter!
He could not move a muscle. The immortal primal energy within his body was thoroughly suppressed, let alone his primal energy.
The hand gripping his sword trembled slightly; though he exerted all his might, he could not even lift the blade.
A heavy sense of powerlessness permeated his entire body.
Yet just as the sky full of blade lights and sword shadows was about to crash down upon him,
an aged back suddenly stepped between them, standing firmly before him!
Su Xuan's haughty voice slowly rang out.
"This old man is still here, and you dare lay a hand on my grandson in front of me?"
"Aren't you..."
"taking me a bit too lightly?!"
Boom!
A dazzling blade light flashed and vanished!
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
Deafening explosions erupted in succession.
Every single attack was completely shattered by that one slash!
Su Xuan stayed low, maintaining the posture of a completed saber slash, standing proud.
With that one strike, terror surfaced in everyone's eyes!
That single slash alone was comparable to a half-step Golden Immortal realm!
As the blade light swept forward, an elder clad in a gilded robe took a slow step forward.
Wearing silver-white gloves that gleamed with silver light, he actually reached out with one hand to grab the blade light!
Bang!
A massive spectral palm of spiritual light manifested, clutching at the blade light.
Yet the elder was shoved backward by the force of the blade light, skidding across hundreds of zhang!
Bang!
The blade light burst apart. The elder's robe whipped fiercely in the wind; his face darkened, his eyes laden with solemnity.
"Su Xuan, even if you are already a half-step Golden Immortal, as long as you are within the Youhuang Realm, you dare not break through to Golden Immortal!"
"Hmph! A mere pseudo-immortal—today shall be the day you die!"
"We came here knowing there is no return; we are bound to slay you!"
As his words fell, another man of the Golden Immortal realm stepped forward, pointing his sword at Su Xuan and speaking coldly:
"Today, we will not descend into the lower realm. The void of this spirit realm shall be our battlefield."
"You... do not have the slightest chance of victory."
"If you do not want us to slaughter the Youhuang Realm, you had best stretch out your neck and accept your death. Then, we will not make things difficult for the Youhuang Realm."
Li Guanqi stood where he was, his heart pounding violently.
The Youhuang Realm... is that the true name of the Human Spirit Realm?
This time... I fear it is a colossal catastrophe!
With this thought, Li Guanqi turned to Su Xuan and asked in a low voice, "Grandfather, is there any way to forcibly drag them down into the Human Spirit Realm?"
A bitter expression appeared on Su Xuan's face. Without turning around, he said softly, "If that were possible, it wouldn't be this troublesome."
"In coming down this time, they are hell-bent on dying here."
"I still underestimated the resolve of those people in the Immortal Realm."
Su Xuan let out a long sigh and murmured, "Go back. Leave this place to me."
Li Guanqi shook his head. With a ferocious glint in his eyes, he glared at the crowd, then looked down toward the Human Spirit Realm.
Buzz!
A terrifying pressure was unleashed in an instant.
In moments, the heavens and earth of the entire Youhuang Realm shook as dark clouds blotting out the sun materialized.
The colossal dark clouds shrouded the entire Six Domains!
Silver light flickered at the center of Li Guanqi's forehead as the resonance power of his Spirit Devouring Dao Body was pushed to its absolute limit.
Rumble!
Endless lightning surged outward as the law of thunder, carrying the power of destruction, rippled across the realm.
In the blink of an eye, waves of purple lightning roiled across the skies over the entire Youhuang Realm.
Boom!
Blood flowed freely from Li Guanqi's nose as his hands suddenly thrust upward in a lifting motion!
Boom!
Around the outer reaches of the spirit realm, thunder roiled and laws permeated the void.
They actually coalesced into two boundless, gargantuan hands that reached out to grasp the crowd of immortals!
Su Xuan's heart jumped, and he roared, "Stop! You can't drag them down!"
Yet it was already too late to stop him.
Li Guanqi resonated with heaven and earth, his consciousness merging into the laws of the Heavenly Dao like a solitary mountain standing in a vast sea.
Li Guanqi used his strongest power of laws to mobilize the Heavenly Dao.
Though the power he could mobilize was merely a drop in the ocean compared to the Heavenly Dao laws of the Youhuang Realm,
if this power could serve as a pulling force to envelop the immortals, perhaps he truly could drag everyone down into the Seventh Domain!
With a contorted, bloodshot face, Li Guanqi suddenly roared at the top of his lungs:
"Aaargh!"
Those ten-thousand-zhang-large hands of thunder law slammed shut toward the positions of the immortals!
The figures treading the void all changed expressions.
None of them had expected that a mere cultivator of the Ascension realm could mobilize the Heavenly Dao's power of laws in the Youhuang Realm!
The Golden Immortal realm elder from earlier narrowed his eyes, his voice turning chillingly cold.
"Is he Su Xuan's grandson?"
"What monstrous talent—to think he is an Ascension realm cultivator who has opened an immortal path!"
"The one mentioned in our mission... must be this boy."
The man beside him spoke in a chilled voice:
"Xiang Jincheng, are you still not going to make a move?"
Hearing this, the gray-haired elder smiled faintly.
"Liang Xiong, what's the rush?"
"He is nothing more than a mayfly trying to shake a tree. What harm is there in watching a moment longer? Don't you find it amusing?"
The man holding a longsword frowned slightly, stepped forward, and slowly raised his sword.
Seeing this, the elder wasted no more words. With a flick of his wrist, he produced a jade ruyi sceptre.
The azure ruyi was inlaid with numerous gems, shimmering with radiant, misty luminescence.
The elder muttered incantations under his breath, holding the ruyi before tossing it into the air.
Buzz...
Waves of green fluorescence rippled outward like ripples on water.
Beneath those ripples, the sky-blotting law palms of spiritual light abruptly shattered with a roar!
The elder lowered his eyes and, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked toward Su Xuan.
"You didn't actually think we came without preparations, did you?"
As his words fell,
the ruyi floating above his head turned into a streak of light and shot violently forward!
Su Xuan's face changed drastically as he swung his blade to intercept it!
Yet the ruyi moved far too fast.
In practically an instant, it pierced clean through the Seventh Domain above the Youhuang Realm!
A streak of cyan light a full hundred zhang thick pierced through the Seventh Domain in a flash!
Looking at the colossal hole above their heads, the cultivators in the Realm of Celestial Spirits couldn't help swallowing hard.
Mournful wails arose—that single strike just now had actually killed several cultivators in the Seventh Domain!
Su Xuan's face turned grim. He tilted his head slightly toward the throng of cultivators above.
"You... have provoked my wrath!"
Liang Xiong sneered, mockery written across his face.
"So what if we provoked you? We are going to suppress and slaughter you anyway!"
"These Seven Domains have no reason to exist anymore."
The instant his words fell, another female cultivator holding a soft sword grimly produced an arm-sized jade disc.
Mysterious, intricate runes of spiritual light flickered across the jade disc.
Su Xuan narrowed his eyes, reached out to grab Li Guanqi's arm, and said in a grave voice:
"Hurry back down. Something isn't right..."
"That jade disc is likely a one-time teleportation portal. There's no telling how many more people will descend!"
