The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 897
Chapter 897 Towering Battle (3)
The disciples of the Towering Sect were hiding on the snowy mountain. They were all shocked when they saw the formation fluctuating in the outer layer.
Unfortunately, they didn’t dare to go out and fight head-on against the Myriad Devil Sect. They could only hide inside and watch helplessly with their eyes open.
The difference in strength between the two sides was a little big. The Towering Sect could only rely on the Great Snowmountain’s defense to delay until reinforcements from Righteous path arrived.
Even the High Priest and the Snow Mountain Wolf God couldn’t do anything good when they saw so many Dao Realm experts outside. If they dared to go out, they would definitely be beaten to death by so many Dao Realm experts.
The only effective method was probably the Towering Mirror. The High Priest controlled this round of mirror light, illuminating the Ancient Desolate Legion. Immediately, a large number of Diabolism characters turned into ash in the boundless white light.
Many Dao Realm experts attacked one after another, intercepting the Towering Mirror Light. The attack on the Great Snowmountain inevitably weakened a bit, giving the people inside a chance to catch their breath.
Seeing this, Li Qing felt that if he followed this pace, it would take him half a day to break through the first layer of the Snow Wind Mortal Realm. It was absolutely impossible to break through the third layer of defense within a day.
With a wave of his hand, a pitch-black door appeared. Two terrifying demons walked out from within, followed by ten weaker demons.
The pitch-black demonic energy instantly contaminated more than half of the sky. After they walked out, they immediately overlapped and turned into a super demon that was over ten feet tall. Its strength was boundless and it emitted a sinister laugh as it attacked the Great Snowmountain.
Immediately after, Li Qing released the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Fiends, and set up the Capital Heavenly God Fiend Array to surround the Great Snow Mountain. The entire world was covered in pitch black devil energy, and it was invaded by pervasive devil energy.
With the help of these two forces, the offensive instantly became much fiercer. The heavy defenses of the Snowflutter Human World were on the verge of collapse, and they could collapse at any moment.
On the snowy mountain, countless Towering Cult disciples sat at the center of the formation, providing a steady stream of power for the mountain protection formation. Only then could they barely hold on.
Li Qing frowned, “Isn’t this enough? It seems that I can only use that thing.”
He moved Yin Qianyu out of the Ascension Heavenly Palace and said, “Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum, take it out.”
“Yes, Devil Master Lord!” Yin Qianyu immediately held the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum in her hand and brought it to Li Qing.
Li Qing casually took the drum and threw it upwards. The drum instantly swelled in the wind and turned into a hundred feet tall. The drum faced the direction of the Great Snow Mountain and continuously emitted thunderous drums. The sound waves spread for thousands of kilometers, causing the earth to crack.
After being attacked by the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum, the Great Snow Mountain’s first layer of defense, Snow Piao Mortal World, was finally unable to hold on and quickly collapsed.
“The power of the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum is indeed extraordinary. It can be said to be the nemesis of the formation!” Li Qing chuckled and exerted his strength again. The drums continued to beat, and the sound waves filled the sky, launching an attack towards the second layer of defense, which was extremely cold.
The Myriad Devil Sect’s momentum was greatly boosted, while the Great Snowmountain’s morale was low, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
It had only been a long time before he had broken through the first layer of the Great Snowmountain’s defense. If this continued, wouldn’t there really be a chance for him to break through the third layer of defense before the reinforcements of the Righteous path arrived?
Thinking of this, the faces of the disciples of the Great Snow Mountain turned ashen, and their auras inevitably fell.
Not long after, the Array of Extreme Deep Freeze flashed again. It was unable to withstand the fierce attacks. The upper echelons of the Great Snowmountain immediately shouted, “What are you dumbfounded about? If you don’t fight to the death now, when the Myriad Devil Sect breaks through the defenses, all of them will die without a doubt!”
Only then did everyone gather their minds and go all out, pouring energy into the formation, resisting the fierce attacks of the Myriad Devil Sect.
In the midst of this constant confrontation, many disciples of the Great Snowmountain fell to the ground after being drained of all their energy by the formation.
There were also some who were infiltrated by the fierce attacks and died from the tremors of this power.
However, everyone knew that this was a moment of life and death, so no one dared to take a step back. They were all trying their best to stabilize the defensive formation.
However, the effect of the Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum was too outstanding. It was extremely effective against formations. Most of the formations in the world could not withstand the continuous attacks of the Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum.
Li Qing directly brought the Ascension Heavenly Palace into his dantian. His aura instantly exploded and he quickly reached the strength level of the Dao Realm.
With such a powerful force, coupled with Li Qingzhen’s particularity, the Xuantian Breaking Formation’s drum fire was fully activated, causing the second layer of the Extreme Freezing Defense to continuously retreat.
The High Priest was extremely anxious. He immediately pointed the Towering Mirror at Li Qing, and a beam of mirror light shot towards him.
The Profound Heaven Breaking Formation Drum was attacked by the Towering Mirror, and it immediately let out a mournful cry, temporarily interrupting the sound wave attack.
Seeing this, Dao Sovereign Zhulong did not wait for Li Qing to make his move. He directly intercepted the Towering Mirror and entangled it with it. This way, he would not be able to disturb the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum’s attack.
Li Qing saw that the situation was about to end. He took out the Eternal Heavenly Saber from his dantian and directly chopped it down!
Boom!
The void shattered heavily. Black lines that looked like cracks in porcelain quickly spread out and landed on the Great Snowmountain. An earth-shattering explosion immediately erupted, followed by a wave of cold air that spread out and froze for thousands of kilometers.
The Extreme Netherfrost Array was slashed apart by the Eternal Heavenly Saber!
In this world, other than the Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum, perhaps the Eternal Heavenly Saber was the only thing that could restrain the formation technique. This devil saber that destroyed everything had an unparalleled sharpness. Previously, Li Qing had broken through the Fire God Sect’s grand formation with a single saber, but now, he could also break through the Heavenly Towering Sect’s formation!
Under the effects of the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum and Eternal Heavenly Saber, the Great Snowmountain was almost impossible to resist. In just an hour’s time, the Myriad Devil Sect had already broken through two layers of defense!
Such a fast speed was enough to shock the world. Since the Myriad Devil Sect was able to break through the Great Snowmountain in a short period of time, didn’t that mean that other sects would not be able to escape?
Inside the Great Snowmountain, as the second layer of defense was broken through, it was instantly a mess. Many Towering Sect disciples were killed by the aftermath of the explosion of the formation, and some were frozen into ice by the endless cold energy.
“Quickly retreat, defend the third level of defense! Apart from that, there is no other way to retreat!” A Void Realm expert shouted loudly as he rolled up his disciples and entered the depths of the snow mountain.
Rumble!
The third level of the formation rose. It was the famous Grand Fortune Formation. This formation was personally set up by the Sect Leader of the Towering Heavens back then. There was also the Towering Heaven Mirror as the formation. Its defensive power was extremely strong. Countless powerful forces had also come and failed in front of this formation.
Above the Great Snowmountain, the great dao appeared one after another, transforming into a hazy shadow. It was actually the will of the Towering Sect Master that was acting, affecting this world, gathering the power of the world for its own use.
This formation was indeed much stronger. Even the Xuantian Formation Breaking Drum and Eternal Heavenly Saber were unable to break through it!
The Eternal Heavenly Saber was actually useful, repeatedly cutting through many gaps. However, the problem was that whenever the Eternal Heavenly Saber slashed out a gap, there would immediately be a force of heaven and earth that quickly filled the gap.
Li Qing temporarily handed over the Profound Heaven Formation Breaking Drum to Doasim Lord Zhulong and let him control it. Then, he took a deep breath and held the Heavenly Saber in his hand, emitting a faint aura that caused his heart to palpitate.
The endless purple and azure light entered the Eternal Heavenly Saber, filled with a destructive force. It was as if everything was coming to an end. Disaster descended, turning everything in the world into nothingness.
The hostile energy from all directions was activated by this action and gathered towards the blade, forming a magnificent pillar of light that no one could see, but could feel its existence.
Upon seeing this magnificent pillar of light on the snowy mountain, the High Priest’s expression changed. “Not good, this is Eternal Demon Saber’s move, Doomsday Calamity!”
The towering mirror leapt up, as if it had transformed into an eternal moonlight. That resplendent light illuminated the world, slowly smoothing out all calamities.
However, there were too many calamities between heaven and earth. The negative aura filled the entire sky, forming a bloody red clouds that enveloped the vast northern plains under the bloody light. There was a gloomy and terrifying aura.
“Slash!”
Li Qing’s blade slashed down. The Doomsday Calamity was unleashed by the Eternal Heavenly Saber, and its power was even more powerful than before. It was like a true World Exterminating Devil Saber, accompanied by endless calamity.
Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and all the calamities in the world erupted with Li Qing’s saber strike!
On the Snowy Mountain, the Towering Fortune Formation had always been activated, protected by the power of the Heavenly Dao. However, in the face of this doomsday calamity, something shocking happened. The power of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be temporarily expelled, everything withered, and the aura of calamity erupted from within the Snowy Mountain!
“Ah!”
A series of miserable screams rang out. Many disciples within the Great Snow Mountain were wrapped in a negative aura. Their faces grew old in a short period of time. All sorts of illnesses suddenly appeared and they fell down one after another. There was no limit to how much power they could provide for the Heavenly Fortune Grand Formation.
Rumble!
The incomparably sturdy Great Snowmountain had been standing in the depths of the Northern Region for countless years, but at this moment, an earthquake had strangely occurred. Rocks fell one after another, the mountain cracked, and then an avalanche was triggered!
Along with the outbreak of these disasters, the foundation of the Towering Fortune Array was also destroyed, and the light was uncertain. The spirits of the experts of the Myriad Devil Sect were greatly lifted, and they took this opportunity to immediately find the flaws in the formation and tear apart the gaps.
The Towering Mirror let out a mournful cry. The light no longer shone brightly. Instead, it was like an old man who had lost his strength with the collapse of the Great Snowmountain.
“Are you going to lose?” The High Priest seemed to have aged all of a sudden. The defense of the Great Snow Mountain could not last even a day in front of the Myriad Devil Sect’s various methods.
Was the defense of the Great Snowmountain not strong enough? Or was the power of the towering mirror not strong enough?
No, the main reason is that the Eternal Heavenly Saber in Li Qing’s hand is too strange!
“That brat really has some ability. I underestimated him at the beginning. This is my mistake!” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“The Towering Fortune Array is about to be broken. What can we do?” Said the High Priest.
“There’s only one trump card left. Please take action!” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“She? Who is she?” The High Priest revealed a puzzled expression. The Towering Sect still had this trump card? Why didn’t he know?
As the High Priest, the actual leader of the Towering Sect, there was actually something that he did not know!
“It’s normal that you don’t know. This person is called the Ice and Snow Queen. She was a person from tens of thousands of years ago. Her history is too long.” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“What? A person from tens of thousands of years ago? Isn’t he already dead?”
‘”Haha, you don’t know that. The Ice and Snow Queen once obtained a piece of Ice Essence. Furthermore, the place where the Ice Essence originated is one of the coldest places in the world. She sealed her body in the place where the Ice Essence originated, hiding the aura of life, thus avoiding the pursuit of the Heavenly Tribulation!” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“There is actually such a method in this world that can escape the sanction of life!” The High Priest was very surprised, “What does this woman have to do with my Towering Sect?”
“The Ice and Snow Queen used to be a disciple of the Towering Sect. The outer two layers of the Great Snow Mountain’s defense, the Snowfluttering Human World and the Extreme Deep Freeze, evolved from the Ice and Snow Queen’s unique technique. However, after a few conflicts, the Ice and Snow Queen left the Towering Sect and entered the depths of the Northern Plains. She never returned to the lands of the Five Regions.”
“However, when she wanted to seal herself into the Land of Frost Essence back then, she needed help and owed me a favor. Therefore, the Towering Heaven Sect is now facing a life and death crisis, so we can ask her to help.” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
The High Priest said, “Since the Ice and Snow Queen can seal herself into the Frost Essence, then why don’t you come out if you want to? If you want to seal, you can seal it. What’s the difference between that and immortality?”
“To wake up from her slumber, the Ice and Snow Queen needs to break that ice essence. At that time, it will be impossible for her to be re-sealed. Moreover, it will be very difficult to find a second ice essence in the world. Therefore, if she reappears this time, it will mean that she has no chance of surviving.” The Snowmountain Wolf God shook his head.
“How could she be willing to help us at such a high price?”
“It depends on whether you are willing to pay the same price!” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“Oh? What do you mean?”
“As long as you give the Towering Mirror to the Ice and Snow Queen, she will definitely come out and help you!” Said the Snowmountain Wolf God.
“Towering Mirror?” The High Priest’s gaze narrowed. “This is the treasure of my Towering Sect. How can I give it to someone who betrayed the Towering Sect?”
“The problem is, if you don’t give it away, even the Towering Sect will be annihilated by the Myriad Devil Sect. What’s the use of keeping the Towering Sky Mirror then?” The Snowmountain Wolf God said, “When you give the Towering Mirror to the Ice and Snow Queen, you can let her enter the Great Snowmountain. Isn’t that the same as taking the Towering Mirror back?”
