Under this rise and fall, the situation that had originally been an absolute disadvantage was forcibly pulled back into a sliver of balance!
“What?! He can actually suppress our realm’s origin?!”
“That bell… just what is its origin?!”
The Dark Immortal Kings and the foreign realm’s giants were both shocked and enraged.
“Kill him! Seize that bell!” the Tiange Giant issued a cold command of slaughter. That broken dark heavenly halberd moved for the first time, transforming into a black bolt of lightning that tore through the universe as it stabbed straight at Lu Xuan!
At the same time, the Huoxin Giant and the Jimie Giant also attacked, the power of bewilderment and a nebula of annihilation surging in from left and right like two torrents of destruction!
Facing the combined strike of three dark giants, golden flames burned in Lu Xuan’s eyes, without the slightest fear!
“Perfect timing!”
He let out a long howl, and the true body of the Taiyi Golden Crow manifested once more. But unlike before, this Golden Crow true body was even more condensed, even more ancient. The chaos and solar power lingering around him fused perfectly, as though he were the sole supreme being born from chaos!
With his left hand, he evolved a chaotic sea eye, devouring and assimilating that power of bewilderment.
With his right hand clenched into a fist, he condensed a Chaos Solar Fist Aura and met the annihilation nebula head-on!
At the same time, the Chaos Bell above his head rang out on its own, dropping billions upon billions of strands of heavy Xuanhuang qi to directly meet that dark heavenly halberd tearing toward him!
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Four forces powerful enough to destroy great universes collided thunderously above the Ancient Realm!
Light swallowed everything, and laws collapsed into chaos! At the terrifying core of the explosion, even an Immortal King’s divine sense could not penetrate!
When the light slightly dispersed, the chaotic Golden Crow that Lu Xuan had transformed into could be seen standing proudly in the void. Though his blood and qi churned throughout his body and his aura was somewhat disordered, the radiance within his double pupils burned even more fiercely!
He had actually relied on his own strength to forcibly withstand the combined strike of three dark giants. Though he was at a disadvantage, he had not been defeated or forced back!
“How is that possible?!” the Scarlet King cried out in shock.
“He is… stronger than before!” Wushang’s gaze was incomparably grave.
As for the Ancient Realm’s allied forces, they erupted into heaven-shaking cheers!
“Immortal King Lu Xuan’s divine might!”
“He blocked it! He blocked it!”
Lu Xuan’s powerful arrival and astonishing display were like the strongest stimulant injected into every resistor!
Hope burned fiercely once more!
His gaze was like a torch as it swept across the dark expressions of the three dark giants. His voice was cold and resolute, spreading across the battlefield:
“This realm is under my protection.”
“Those who trespass shall be executed!”
Because of Lu Xuan’s return, the final decisive battle entered an entirely new stage!
One man and one bell, alone against three great dark giants, as well as the entire allied army of darkness and the foreign realm!
A peak confrontation concerning the survival of the Ancient Realm, and one that might even affect the future order of all the heavens, erupted in full!
Just as Lu Xuan used supreme divine might to confront the three great dark giants head-on, winning the Ancient Realm’s allied forces a chance to catch their breath, the void in the direction of the Immortal Realm was torn open once again!
Only this time, what arrived was not a single powerful expert, but a vast and boundless expanse of crimson-golden divine radiance that made it impossible to look directly at!
“Li—!”
“Li—!”
“Li—!”
……
Ten Golden Crow cries, piercing metal and splitting stone, filled with an ancient and majestic aura, rang throughout the universe like a war song from the primordial starry sky!
Immediately afterward, ten incomparably vast, dazzling divine suns burning with eternal and undying Chaos Solar True Fire, like ancient stars that had broken free of the shackles of space and time, charged fiercely into this bloody battlefield!
These ten divine suns were no longer illusory images, but had nearly condensed into substance!
Within each divine sun, one could clearly see an extraordinary Taiyi Golden Crow with radiant feathers and three feet treading upon fire, rising and falling within while crying out!
They were not arranged in disorder, but moved according to profoundly mysterious trajectories. Their auras fused perfectly, and their light intertwined, forming an unparalleled killing formation of ten suns hanging across the sky that shrouded the starry rivers!
It was precisely the Ten-Sun Golden Crow Grand Formation, refined through tens of thousands of years of painstaking effort by the Golden Crow Clan’s ten elders at the peak of True Immortal level—quasi-Immortal Kings—under Lu Xuan’s personal guidance!
The one leading them was none other than the Golden Crow Clan’s Grand Elder. He burned with blazing fighting spirit, and his voice, carried through the resonance of the formation, spread across the battlefield:
“By the decree of the Immortal King, the Golden Crow Clan has come to assist in battle! Those who violate our allies shall be killed without mercy!”
“Form the array—Ten Suns Burn the Heavens!”
Following the Grand Elder’s command, the Ten-Sun Golden Crow Grand Formation rumbled as it revolved to its utmost limit!
The ten divine suns spun madly, and endless Chaos Solar True Fire surged out from the formation diagram.
No longer scattered flames, it transformed into a crimson-golden ocean of fire that could incinerate all things, sweeping overwhelmingly toward the massive dark legions and foreign realm rabble!
This flame contained a trace of the chaotic evolution intent Lu Xuan had integrated into the formation, as well as the Golden Crow Clan’s most fundamental solar incineration power. It possessed an innate restraint against darkness and evil auras!
“Chh-chh-chh—!”
Wherever the flames passed, those ferocious dark beings and foreign realm immortals were like creatures meeting their natural nemesis. They could not even let out a scream before being instantly vaporized under the extreme heat and purifying Dao laws, turning into nothingness!
Even some weaker Immortal Kings, when swept by the edge of this ocean of flames, were as if scorched by a branding iron. Their dark bodies emitted sizzling sounds, billowing black smoke rising from them as they retreated in terror!
The Ten-Sun Golden Crow Grand Formation was like a massive, mobile purifying furnace. It was unstoppable, forcibly clearing out a vast region on the flank of the darkness and foreign realm allied forces!
It greatly relieved the pressure on the Ancient Realm’s allied forces on the lower-level battlefield!
“It’s the Golden Crow Clan’s formation!”
“What terrifying flames! They specialize in countering these damned things!”
“Reinforcements! We have another powerful reinforcement!”
The Ancient Realm cultivators’ spirits soared, and they seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack!
“Bastards! Where did these flat-feathered beasts come from?!”
A Dark Immortal King who was locked in battle with Daoist Xianjin flew into a rage at the sight. He split off a dark tentacle, transforming it into a demonic whip that tore through the starry river, lashing viciously toward the Ten-Sun Golden Crow Grand Formation!
However, facing the furious strike of a Dark Immortal King, the Ten-Sun Golden Crow Grand Formation showed no fear at all!
“Rotate!”
The ten Golden Crow elders presiding over the formation were of one mind, urging the formation at the same time.
The trajectories of the ten divine suns abruptly changed. The ocean of fire instantly withdrew and gathered at the core of the formation, transforming into a crimson-golden pillar of light condensed to the extreme, fiercely meeting that dark demonic whip head-on!
“Rumble!!!”
The crimson-golden light pillar and the dark demonic whip collided violently!
Ultimate light and ultimate darkness annihilated one another, unleashing a destructive energy storm!
Yet what shocked everyone was that the crimson-golden light pillar was not dispersed. Instead, it endured the energy storm and stubbornly advanced forward. Though its radiance had dimmed considerably, it still carried an indomitable, resolute momentum!
“What?! A formation made up of mere True Immortals can actually withstand one of this king’s strikes?!”
That Dark Immortal King was both shocked and furious.
Although he had not used his full strength, the gulf between an Immortal King and a True Immortal was unimaginably vast.
Yet this Golden Crow Grand Formation could take it head-on without collapsing. Its profundity and power had already surpassed common sense!
This was precisely the result of Lu Xuan’s painstaking improvements!
