Chapter 242: Space Transmission Teleportation Array, Unexpected Visitors
"Lu Yi, thank you," he said.
Seeing that the Immortal Level Sky Demon was completely obliterated, the Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect slightly exhaled a breath of stale air, revealing a trace of a relaxed smile.
Lu Yi glanced at the Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect's pale face, shook his head, and said, "Elder, why say such things? If you hadn't blocked that Sky Demon for a while, I wouldn't have had the chance to kill the other two Sky Demons."
Honestly, Lu Yi's full strength was already at its limit fighting two Immortal Level Sky Demons, let alone if three had attacked him together; it would have been very difficult for him to resist.
The Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect smiled, then his expression became solemn again, "It's not over yet."
He turned his head to look into the distance where Wang Jianyuan and the Sword Taoist were each battling a Sky Demon about five to six thousand meters tall, while the Ling Luo Peak Master was fighting three Sky Demons alone. In the illusionary world, endless brilliance surged, and Lu Yi could hardly see the details of the fight.
Even on the battlefield of Wang Jianyuan and the Sword Taoist, where terrifying spiritual power remnants wreaked havoc, no one could see clearly inside, they could only feel the endless fluctuations of spiritual power being released, terrifying energy that made all the Void Immortals tremble with fear, including Lu Yi.
If one got too close, even someone with a body like his would likely burst apart directly.
So powerful.
Is this the existence that surpasses Heavenly Immortals?
Lu Yi took a deep breath.
Then, Lu Yi looked even further into the distance, into the vacuum where, within the illusionary Bright World, Grandma Yuanling and the ten-thousand-meter tall Demon God were silently battling. Compared to the terrifying might of Wang Jianyuan and the Sword Taoist, that illusionary world seemed calm, with no fluctuations spreading into the vacuum.
However, from the shining light and the billowing demon mist, it was clear that the battle in that world was anything but calm.
Lu Yi's expression grew stern, and he said, "They are too strong, there's no way for us to get involved."
The Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect also nodded slightly, "Yes, too powerful indeed."
At that moment, Long Yin Ancestor and other Void Immortals flew over.
"Old fellow, how is it going?"
"Lu Yi, my friend, we owe you a lot; otherwise, we might all have died here," they said one after another.
Lu Yi and the Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect both nodded in response.
Then, the Old Master of the Divine Sword Sect said, "We can't join the battle in that direction; let's go and eliminate the other Sky Demons."
Upon hearing this, the others also nodded.
While they were battling the Immortal Level Sky Demons, other groups of Sky Demons had already bypassed them and were charging towards Tianming.
At this moment, many of Tianming's powerful fighters were in the vacuum, resisting the Sky Demons.
Void Immortals without Immortal Devices, Tribulation Crossing Ancestors, and Great Mahayana cultivators—all kinds of powerful beings were fighting in the vacuum or near-vacuum high-altitude areas.
Lu Yi and his companions turned into streaks of light, rushing towards Tianming.
Soon, they arrived in the area of the fierce battle.
Tianming's Void Immortal warriors and Tribulation Crossing Ancestors were resisting some hundreds of meters tall, powerful Sky Demons.
Lu Yi saw Ancestor Fang Tianyao of the Divine Sword Sect, Long Ming Ancestor, the female Void Immortal from the Heavenly Palace, and many familiar faces.
At the same time, Lu Yi also saw Liu Ningshuang and her three companions.
The four of Liu Ningshuang, being Immortal Bodies and although just Great Mahayana in their cultivation base, had each mastered a thread of the Laws, making their fighting strength extremely formidable, comparable to some weaker Void Immortals.
The four were also battling against various Sky Demons.
However, the number of Sky Demons was too large, surpassing the warriors of Tianming.
At this moment, many mighty fighters were injured, and in the vacuum, there were even limbs and broken arms floating—these were from Tianming's dead warriors.
All of Tianming's strong fighters had cold expressions and roared continuously, their spirit light flickering nonstop.
Filled with a will for destruction, the Sky Demons forced warriors who were otherwise enemies to join forces against the common threat.
Otherwise, no one from Tianming would survive.
Void Immortals wielding Immortal Devices arrived on the scene, saw the numerous dead bodies, and their faces turned stern, a murderous intent swirling.
Upon seeing their fellow disciples and their juniors, they were filled with immense anger.
"Kill!" Long Yin Ancestor saw a dead Tribulation Crossing Ancestor from the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land and was immediately furious.
He charged with the Heavenly Dragon Spear in hand.
The other Void Immortals also met the charge.
Lu Yi was no exception.
With a cold expression, Lu Yi burst into full power, continuously using Extreme Immortal Skills.
Every sword strike, every punch could slay a Tribulation Crossing Sky Demon or severely wound a Void Immortal Sky Demon.
Lu Yi quickly arrived in front of Liu Ningshuang and her companions.
The four women's faces were somewhat pale, their breaths very weak.
Being Immortal Bodies, the quality of their spiritual energy was naturally extremely high, but even they were greatly drained and utterly exhausted after continuous battle.
Lu Yi swung his sword, a sweep of Star Sword Light struck, turning a Tribulation Sky Demon that was about to attack Liu Ningshuang into a wisp of black fog.
The four women were stunned, then turned to look, their faces lighting up with delight.
"Lu Yi! Are you all right?" Yun Xi asked.
Lu Yi nodded, his gaze swept over the four, and he smiled, "I'm fine, good to see you're all okay too."
"Where are the Immortal Level Sky Demons up there?" Liu Ningshuang asked.
"They are all eliminated," Lu Yi interjected, and the four of them immediately felt a lot more relaxed.
Upon hearing this, the four were jubilant. Jian Ruyu said gleefully, "As expected of our freak junior brother, truly formidable!"
Donggong Ming Yue also nodded in approval, "Senior brother is really amazing!"
Liu Ningshuang and Yun Xi also revealed smiles.
With a group of Void Immortals wielding Immortal Devices joining, the originally tragic battle significantly improved.
The more powerful Sky Demons were harder to kill, but fortunately, those below the Immortal Level were not as nearly indestructible as the Immortal Level Sky Demons.
Each Void Immortal wielding an Immortal Device, facing Sky Demons of the Void Immortal Level, might not be able to crush them but could kill a Tribulation Crossing Realm Void Immortal in a few rounds.
Soon, the situation changed rapidly, and one after another, Sky Demons died.
Lu Yi specifically targeted Sky Demons of the Void Immortal Level, continuously using the Demon Extinguishing Sword's special trait to obliterate the Void Immortal Level Sky Demons.
The other Sky Demons were left to the Divine Sword Sect's Old Master and the group of Void Immortals.
In just a few hours, all the Sky Demons in the sky had been killed, and the group of Void Immortals and Tribulation Crossing Ancestors freed their hands to support those even further below.
It should be noted that there were many Sky Demons this time; some even weaker ones had broken through the cultivators' blockade and entered Tianming.
Further below was the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range; when Lu Yi and others rushed down, they found some Sky Demons killing fierce beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and others attacking the endless Array Patterns towards the forbidden area of the mountain range.
Some Sky Demons even disappeared.
"Kill them all!"
The faces of the cultivators were icy cold as they charged forward.
By now, the strength of these Sky Demons was mostly at the Great Power Level, not too strong. Facing a group of cultivators, they naturally couldn't resist and were swiftly all slain.
After eliminating the Sky Demons in this area, everyone's expressions relaxed slightly.
However, Lu Yi and the Divine Sword Sect's Old Master and others did not relax. After all, the most powerful group had not yet determined a winner. Even if they killed all the Sky Demons, if Grandma Yuanling was defeated, ultimately no one in Tianming would be able to withstand those powerful Sky Demons.
With the strength that the ten thousand meter Sky Demon demonstrated, given time, the entire Tianming could only face destruction.
Lu Yi felt heavy-hearted, for his strength was still too weak. If only he were stronger and could kill all the Sky Demons, that would be ideal.
The group of Void Immortals, in order to prevent any Sky Demons from causing chaos in other areas, ordered their Sect's Tribulation Crossing Ancestors to go back and start searching for any remaining Sky Demons.
Meanwhile, Lu Yi and the Divine Sword Sect's Old Master and others returned to the vacuum in space, looking towards the distant battlefield of the Immortals.
Everyone's expressions were somewhat worried.
Donggong Ming Yue anxiously said, "Can the Master and others win?"
Lu Yi watched the surging endless brilliance, like constant stars constantly releasing energy. If viewed from the land below in Tianming, the sun in the sky was no longer visible, all that could be seen was daylight.
After all, the fluctuations from a few Immortal's battles were too intense. The energy was no weaker than the sun, with their light even overshadowing the sunlight.
Even Lu Yi could not fully discern the battle situation. He took a deep breath and said, "The Master is very strong; he'll definitely manage."
No one spoke, all watching the battlefield nervously.
As time passed, the Immortals' powers were overwhelmingly vast, seemingly infinite, continuing the intense battle for over ten days without any signs of exhaustion.
Just then, a disturbance in space came from the faraway vacuum.
Having mastered the Space Law, Lu Yi noticed this immediately. His expression changed slightly as he turned his head to look.
Following that, Lu Yi saw the empty vacuum where space suddenly twisted. In the next moment, a series of mysterious Array Patterns emerged, the dense patterns somewhat familiar to his eyes.
He realized they were similar to the Array Patterns he had seen previously at the exit square of the East Forest Ruins.
"A Space Transmission Array?!" Lu Yi exclaimed with astonishment.
The other cultivators, all of strong power, quickly detected the situation, and one by one turned their heads to look.
The mysterious Array Patterns flickered uncertainly, continuously arranging themselves and eventually forming a circle thousands of kilometers wide.
In the center of the Array Map, the space suddenly dipped down, forming a hundred-kilometer-wide cavity.
Within the cavity, strands of strange black mist emerged, causing Lu Yi's expression to change slightly: "Jiuyou Qi?!"
Not just Lu Yi, all present were strong figures of Tianming, many were Void Immortals, and as foundations of various Immortal Sect Holy Lands, they naturally had also learned a hint of information about Jiuyou from the Immortals, and everyone's faces underwent a dramatic change, looking as if they had seen something horrific.
Jiuyou was an existence even more terrifying than the Sky Demons!
At that moment, beams of light flashed, shattering the escaping Jiuyou Qi. Then, figures burst out from the cavity.
They were human-shaped beings.
Most of them were of the Human Clan, like the cultivators of Tianming, with a few from the Demon Clan, and several had three eyes.
All these beings were dressed in pitch-black War Armors, made from unknown strange metals, studded with densely packed mysterious runes flickering uncertainly, containing extremely terrifying power.
On the left chest of these pitch-black War Armors was a piece of Glazed Glass Jade, surrounded by endless stars.
This left Lu Yi immensely shocked.
All of them were Low Grade Immortal Devices!
Who were these people?!
The Immortal Devices were clearly uniform in make, and there were so many of them!
