The tens of thousands of spirit soldiers advanced onto the battlefield in the blink of an eye, easily halting the offensive of the Wang, Qin, Li, and Kong families.
However, the Wang, Qin, Li, and Kong families were not so easily deterred from their attack…
The entry of the spirit army, besides making the already brutal battlefield even more terrifying, seemed to bring no other changes.
Seeing that they had used up most of their trump cards and the situation remained at a stalemate, Wang Quan Gui, Li Zi Hao, Kong Xiang Xi, and Qin Ru Huo exchanged glances and chose to enter the fray.
Liu Xie, Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao stepped out of the imperial capital Chang An almost simultaneously.
Every cultivator at the Purple Mansion stage possessed their own pride. Despite their different temperaments, this pride was etched into their very being.
Liu Xie would face Wang Quan Gui and Kong Xiang Xi, while Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao would be tasked with holding off Li Zi Hao and Qin Ru Huo!
With a flick of his wrist, Liu Xie unleashed the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Myriad Dragon Imperial Seal, which, carrying boundless dragon energy, slammed down upon Wang Quan Gui, seemingly intent on obliterating him.
Concurrently, the top-grade spiritual treasures, the Imperial Immortal Bell and the Imperial Heaven Divine Sword, imbued with powerful laws of destiny, shot towards Kong Xiang Xi!
Wang Quan Gui had refined the laws of space, and his divine abilities were said to be peerless.
Legend had it that his mastery of spatial power had reached a realm unimaginable to others.
Spatial inversion, spatial shattering, spatial slash – these were all child's play to him!
Facing the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Myriad Dragon Imperial Seal, hurtling towards him, Wang Quan Gui's white robes fluttered, and streaks of white light symbolizing spatial power converged in his right hand. He then threw a punch directly forward!
His fist shattered the heavens, tore through space, and Wang Quan Gui unleashed a supreme divine ability, delivering a devastating blow.
The fist and the seal collided with a resounding boom. All things vanished, the starry sky itself flickered and died, and blinding daylight engulfed the surroundings.
Meanwhile!
Seeing the top-grade spiritual treasures, the Imperial Immortal Bell and the Imperial Heaven Divine Sword, charging at him, Kong Xiang Xi frowned slightly. He took out the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Literary Dao Brush, and with a grand stroke, wrote the character "定" (Ding - meaning "settle" or "fix") in mid-air!
An ancient and immortal aura emanated from the character.
The character "定" rotated, and the most mysterious and profound power in heaven and earth circulated within it. Even the mighty Imperial Immortal Bell and Imperial Heaven Divine Sword trembled beneath this character.
The character "定" descended upon the bronze bell, as if to suppress the two top-grade spiritual treasures. Potent literary dao power continuously swirled, forming vortexes!
"Liu Xie, this is different from before. This is a battle for life and death. Do you underestimate me too much!"
Wang Quan Gui's face was solemn. Above his head, the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Mountain River Sea Map, spun. Seven branches of spatial law converged in his fists.
This was true supreme spatial power. His formidable iron fists pierced the void, launching an attack at Liu Xie. This punch, imbued with spatial power, was enough to annihilate anyone.
On this blood-soaked battlefield spanning a thousand miles, no matter how desperately other powerhouses fought, it could not conceal the sharpness of this punch!
The entire world seemed to dim in comparison to these fists!
A fist that broke the heavens – this was the path Wang Quan Gui had forged himself, embodying all his insights from millennia.
One punch, and heaven and earth were destroyed, the sun and moon vanished!
Facing this earth-shattering strike, Liu Xie displayed the demeanor of an emperor. His expression remained unchanged, only a slight flicker in his eyes betrayed his emotions.
Protected by the True Dragon Qi, impenetrable to all laws, Liu Xie threw a punch without any hesitation.
A powerful dragon roar echoed through heaven and earth.
A nine-clawed golden dragon, tens of thousands of feet long, roared towards the sky, causing the very heavens to tremble.
Integrating the power of fortune and the laws of destiny, Liu Xie seemed to become one with the Dao, merging with the entire sky and manifesting the presence of the Heavenly Emperor.
At this moment, Liu Xie was the son of heaven, a born sovereign, ruling the world, an eternal and indestructible master of destiny.
An imperial aura emanated from him, pressing down on the entire world, compelling all to bow.
"On our home ground in the imperial capital Chang An, if it's a one-on-one fight, I doubt anyone can match Liu Xie!"
Sensing this astonishing pressure, Wang Quan Gui's pupils contracted slightly, and he sighed softly.
The power of fortune gathered from governing a region of the immortal cultivation world was indeed terrifying. The might of an Immortal Emperor was vast and majestic, ruling over heaven and earth.
"Boom!!!"
A fierce collision reverberated across heaven and earth, the impact of their fists unleashing terrifying aftershocks.
The clash of laws between supreme experts was so potent that even Nascent Soul stage cultivators would turn to dust if caught within it.
After the exchange, Wang Quan Gui retreated five steps, a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth.
Liu Xie, on the other hand, showed no change, his face unblushed, his breathing steady. The outcome was already decided.
Seeing Wang Quan Gui at a disadvantage, Kong Xiang Xi rushed to his aid.
He swiftly wielded his top-grade spiritual treasure, the Literary Dao Brush, and seven branches of literary laws surged forth. The six arts of Confucianism appeared!
"Li" (Rites), "Yue" (Music), "She" (Archery), "Yu" (Charioteering), "Shu" (Calligraphy), and "Shu" (Mathematics) materialized in the battlefield, blocking Liu Xie, who was about to press his advantage.
Words were the origin of all human civilization. From them, humans became truly human, and the concept of humankind emerged.
While the six arts might not compare to the most ancient and primordial words, they held significant meaning in human history.
With the six arts as a foundation, Kong Xiang Xi pushed the laws of writing to their limit, successfully blocking Liu Xie.
Facing the dual offensive of Wang Quan Gui and Kong Xiang Xi, Liu Xie did not falter, even gaining a slight advantage!
Since Liu Hao Tian, every Immortal Emperor of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty had been universally recognized as the foremost expert of their generation in the Zi Prefecture immortal cultivation world.
Liu Xie's strength was undeniable. Single-handedly facing two Purple Mansion stage powerhouses, the might of an Immortal Emperor was displayed in its entirety.
The power of the True Dragon's fortune swept in all directions, and Liu Xie's every move could influence the entire world.
It was as if he was the heavens, and the heavens were him. Each strike showcased the dominance of an Emperor and Sovereign, revealing his own Immortal Emperor's Dao.
The supremacy of Emperors and Sovereigns, the solitary nature of their rule, the Immortal Emperors on the immortal path – no one in the world could match them. This was vividly demonstrated at this moment!
Since Liu Hao Tian, the Imperial Dao had reached its zenith in the Zi Prefecture immortal cultivation world. An Immortal Emperor ascended to the throne every so often, a tradition that had continued for countless years.
An Immortal Emperor was the celestial sovereign, dominating heaven and earth, ruling a vast immortal cultivation world, holding the lives and deaths of billions of beings in his grasp. Even the Heavenly Dao had to bend to his will – this was an Immortal Emperor!
Throughout history, the authority and majesty of Immortal Emperors had been deeply etched into the hearts of countless cultivators, not something that could be changed overnight.
Now, the formidable power displayed by Liu Xie was enough to shake the firm convictions of countless cultivators, making them believe they had chosen the wrong side. Even the disciples of the four great families felt they might have made a mistake!
Gazing at Liu Xie's immensely powerful figure, everyone seemed to see the scene of the first Immortal Emperor, Liu Hao Tian, dominating the entire immortal cultivation world back then.
The two figures seemed to overlap, Liu Xie crowned with an imperial diadem, True Dragon Qi entwined around him, single-handedly battling two top powerhouses, his heroism soaring!
Many family heads, who had secretly retreated to the rear of the battlefield, felt a chill run down their spines as they witnessed this scene.
"If Liu Xie can annihilate the four great families in this battle, he will undoubtedly leave a significant mark on the history of the Zi Prefecture immortal cultivation world, worthy of being called a revitalizing ruler."
"Indeed, but I wonder if he will succeed..."
Some family heads, who had been pushed further back by the fighting, whispered amongst themselves.
Meanwhile.
Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao were locked in combat with Li Zi Hao and Qin Ru Huo.
Qin Ru Huo struck first. The top-grade spiritual treasure, the Life and Death Netherwheel, spun continuously, and strands of soul laws emerged one by one.
Illusory images of the Six Paths of Reincarnation – the Heavenly Path, the Human Path, the Asura Path, the Animal Path, the Hungry Ghost Path, and the Hell Path – manifested!
The Six Paths of Reincarnation conjured various ghosts and gods, creating ghost realms that instantly enveloped Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao.
Li Zi Hao roared to the heavens and unleashed his potent earth laws.
The top-grade spiritual treasure, the Heavy Stone Golden Crystal Arrow, was shrouded in thick earth-colored light. Its power was so immense, it was as if the might of the earth had descended upon the world!
Meanwhile, Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao exchanged glances and tacitly chose to cooperate!
The most vigilant Liu Shan was the first to activate the law of extreme light. A river of light appeared, encircling their vicinity and protecting their bodies.
Liu Chuang then channeled the lightning laws within his body to their fullest, drawing all nearby lightning power to himself.
At this moment, Liu Chuang was like an executioner of divine punishment, wielding all the lightning in the world, a deity of lightning!
With one hand, Liu Chuang condensed a spear filled with lightning energy and hurled it with all his might, directly smashing towards the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Heavy Stone Golden Crystal Arrow.
Liu Gao, on the other hand, chose to assist Liu Chuang.
A vast starry map materialized, with constellations such as Zi Wei, Tian Dou, Yu Heng, and Po Jun appearing one by one. They then, carrying immense starlight power, directly struck at Li Zi Hao.
The battle between Li Zi Hao, Qin Ru Huo, Liu Chuang, Liu Shan, and Liu Gao was also incredibly fierce.
This was a battle for life and death, unlike the sparring matches of the previous days. This time, no one would hold back their strength!
