Chapter 1197 I'd like to see how long you can hold out.
The Eighteenth Prince's voice, imbued with immense immortal power, boomed like thunder from the Immortal Ship, reverberating deep into the Primordial Immortal Realm, carrying a final test and oppressive force. Deep down, he still hoped to avoid this battle if possible.
After all, the opponent was able to completely suppress the late-stage ninth-order quasi-immortal king, Ancestor Wuwang, in just two hundred thousand years. Even with the power of the Immortal Array, this strength was still terrifying. If a war were to break out, even with the assistance of a high-level quasi-immortal king from the Thirteenth Elder's lineage, he was not absolutely certain of victory and might even pay a heavy price.
As for the fallen Celestial Lord Qiong Gao and Dao Lord Zi Yuan, all they could do now was silently apologize in their hearts—their sacrifice seemed insignificant in the face of greater benefits and risks.
......
In the Primordial World, within the Primordial Immortal Palace, in the Immortal Medicine Garden.
Su Mo held a newly ripened Immortal Fruit between his fingers, the Daoist aura on its peel flowing in his palm. Hearing the voice that pierced through the chaos, a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips: "You want me to release that old man Wuwang just like that? This Eighteenth Prince really dares to ask for it."
Having traversed countless cosmic eras and risen from the ashes of death, he has never considered giving away a prize that is already within his grasp. The Boundless Ancestor is the key to his breakthrough to the tenth and eleventh ranks of Golden Immortal; how could he possibly relinquish him so easily?
Then, Su Mo opened his mouth, and his voice transformed into a condensed stream of primordial energy, piercing through the barrier of the Immortal Realm and reaching the Immortal Ship trillions of years away, carrying undisguised provocation: "If you want me to release them, then show me your skills, don't just talk the talk! If you have the ability, then break through my great formation first!"
"Do you truly intend to fight us to the death?" The Eighteenth Prince's voice instantly turned cold, like steel needles tempered with ice, piercing one's eardrums painfully. "I will ask you one last time, will you hand it over or not?"
As he spoke, the eighteenth prince stepped off the golden throne. The oppressive aura of a peak seventh-tier quasi-immortal king, like an ancient behemoth awakening, surged forth from his body, sweeping towards the Hongmeng Immortal Realm with an overwhelming force. Wherever it passed, the chaotic energy was stagnated and groaned under its unbearable weight.
Almost simultaneously, the thirteenth prince and others in the Immortal Palace also rose to their feet. The auras of the sixteen seventh-rank and above Quasi-Immortal Kings surged together, like sixteen rushing galaxies, converging with the imposing aura of the eighteenth prince, transforming into a chaotic storm that blotted out the sky, mixed with various immortal lights and fragments of immortal rules, and fiercely crushed towards the Hongmeng Immortal Realm, as if to grind this void into dust.
"Om..."
On the outskirts of the Primordial Immortal Realm, one after another, the previously hidden immortal arrays trembled violently under this terrifying pressure. The array patterns flickered rapidly, emitting a humming sound as if they could not withstand the strain. Immediately afterwards, the outermost arrays were the first to give way, and obvious cracks began to appear. Then, a series of "crackling" sounds rang out as the arrays collapsed.
"You want me to hand over the person?" Su Mo's voice rang out again, carrying a hint of mockery and determination, like the clash of metal, powerful and resounding. "Don't say it once, even if you ask a thousand or ten thousand times, it's impossible! Whatever tricks you have up your sleeve, I'll take them all on. I want to see just how much you're capable of!"
"Good! Good! Good!" The eighteenth prince exclaimed three times, clearly enraged. His face was ashen, and black mist surged around him. "You are courting death!" He had intended to leave them some room to maneuver, but they were so ungrateful. Did they really think they were easy targets? "Attack! Break these immortal formations first, then take down these cowardly rats!"
Before he finished speaking, the Eighteenth Prince suddenly waved his long sleeve, and a dazzling nine-colored divine light billowed from his cuff, like a rainbow piercing through chaos and tearing through the void. Nine peerless immortal swords of different colors suddenly appeared before him, their blades flowing with the radiant light of different attributes—the crimson sword burned with raging flames, turning the chaotic energy into a sea of fire wherever it passed, scorching everything; the cyan sword was wrapped in the aura of eternal green, intertwining life and destruction, unpredictable and strange; the white sword was covered in piercing frost, capable of freezing the flow of time and encasing all things in ice... Each immortal sword exuded the sharp pressure of an eighth-grade quasi-immortal king's artifact, and the sound of swords echoed throughout the immortal palace, causing the glass lamps inside to hum, as if trying to break free of their restraints and return to drink blood.
This is the Eighteenth Prince's natal immortal weapon—the Nine Luminaries Immortal Sword. A single sword is already among the best of the eighth-grade quasi-immortal king immortal weapons, but when the nine immortal swords are combined, their power is no less than that of a ninth-grade quasi-immortal king immortal weapon, and may even surpass it.
"Nine Luminaries Immortal Formation, slaying immortals and demons! Break it for me!"
With a sharp shout, the eighteenth prince's fingertips formed hand seals with lightning speed, and nine immortal swords instantly soared into the air, arranging themselves according to the nine stars of the Big Dipper, transforming into a dazzling nine-star array. Billions of nine-colored sword energies erupted from the array, like a reversed Milky Way, carrying a devastating force that tore everything apart, slashing fiercely towards the immortal array on the outer edge of the Primordial Immortal Realm. Wherever the sword energies passed, even the void itself was cleaved into dark cracks.
Just then...
The Thirteenth Prince and the sixteen Quasi-Immortal Kings, including the Boundless Ancestor, were equally formidable, each unleashing their respective Quasi-Immortal King artifacts. The Thirteenth Prince's palm emitted a ball of Primordial Flame, mixed with chaotic energy, which condensed into a crimson spear. The spearhead flickered with flames, seemingly capable of incinerating the heavens. The Boundless Ancestor took out an ancient tortoise shell, its surface covered in weathered runes, radiating a powerful defensive and counter-attacking force, as if bearing the weight of countless ages. The other Quasi-Immortal Kings summoned giant axes and treasure cauldrons, or unleashed divine powers of space folding and time stagnation. Various lights and immortal rules intertwined to form a net of destruction, launching a massive attack on the immortal immortal arrays. The sheer scale of their attack was enough to make even a Ninth-Order Immortal King take notice.
"Want to break the formation? Have you asked me first?"
Inside the Immortal Medicine Garden of the Hongmeng Immortal Palace, Su Mo's voice, tinged with a cold laugh, drifted over. It was unhurried yet exuded an air of complete composure.
next moment......
"boom......"
A pressure several times more terrifying than that of the Ninth-Order Late-Stage Quasi-Immortal King, the Boundless Ancestor, rose from the center of the great formation—like a sleeping cosmic overlord awakening, causing the entire chaotic void to tremble, and even the Quasi-Immortal Kings on the Immortal Ship felt their hearts tremble.
In an instant, tens of thousands of immortal arrays on the outer edge of the Primordial Immortal Realm activated simultaneously, their array patterns shining with unparalleled brilliance, like billions of stars lighting up at once. These arrays rapidly combined and nested themselves at a speed visible to the naked eye, ultimately transforming into a colossal array spanning trillions of eons—the Myriad Immortals Array. At this moment, the array's power was more than ten times greater than when it besieged and killed Ancestor Wuwang two hundred thousand years ago, and the immortal rule power flowing within its array patterns was enough to pose a fatal danger to even a peak ninth-tier Quasi-Immortal King.
"boom......"
The nine-colored sword energy of the Nine Luminaries Immortal Array collided with the defensive light barrier of the Myriad Immortals Grand Array, unleashing a deafening roar comparable to the birth of the universe. Countless fragments of rules exploded in the void, and the chaotic energy was stirred into a chaotic mess. The attacks of the Thirteenth Prince and others landed on the grand array, causing the light barrier to fluctuate violently, but the force was deflected and rebounded layer by layer, and they were unable to break through completely.
The Myriad Immortals Formation was like an ancient behemoth awakening, fiercely resisting the attacks of the eighteen princes and seventeen other high-level quasi-immortal kings. Within the formation, there was a dazzling array of light, constantly evolving into mountains, rivers, and chaotic phantoms, dissolving all attacks one by one.
"What a magnificent combined formation! Add to that a ninth-tier perfect Quasi-Immortal King, and Senior Wuwang's defeat is well-deserved." The Eighteenth Prince gazed at the indestructible Myriad Immortals Formation that seemed to swallow chaos before him, his expression hardening, but his eyes showing no fear. "However, it's still a little short of stopping us."
As soon as he finished speaking, his mind stirred slightly, and the Heavenly Pearl of Illusion, which was floating beside him, suddenly burst out with a dazzling light a hundred times stronger than before. The silver beam of light swept through every corner of the Myriad Immortals Array like a searchlight, clearly illuminating the flow of array patterns and the nodes of energy, revealing every detail, leaving no secret hidden.
"Found it! It's right there." The Eighteenth Prince's eyes suddenly lit up, his gaze fixed on an immortal immortal array shimmering with a dark purple light on the outer edge of the Myriad Immortals Array—it was one of the weakest points in the array's operation, with the array patterns flowing slightly slower and the energy fluctuations being slightly weaker than the other array positions, like the most vulnerable link in a chain.
"Gentlemen, follow me and attack this place!"
As he spoke, the Eighteenth Prince flicked his finger, and the Nine Luminaries Immortal Sword Formation hummed once more. Countless nine-colored sword energies, like a celestial river, converged and blasted towards the immortal immortal formation with the power to tear apart the heavens. Wherever the sword energies passed, the chaotic energy was scorched, frozen, and torn apart, leaving behind deep spatial rifts.
"Go! Attack together!"
Almost simultaneously, the Thirteenth Prince and the others also acted decisively. The Thirteenth Prince swept his crimson spear horizontally, unleashing a fiery spear beam that pierced through the chaos; the Boundless Ancestor pushed forward his ancient tortoise shell, the runes on it lighting up and transforming into a thick, mountain-like gray pillar of light; the divine powers and immortal artifacts of the other Quasi-Immortal Kings also converged at the same time, like sixteen shooting stars, following the trajectory of the nine-colored sword energy, and bombarded the immortal formation.
"Crack...knock..."
A series of cracking sounds rang out as the defensive light barrier of the Immortal Array flickered violently under the combined attack of seventeen high-level Quasi-Immortal Kings. The light dimmed and brightened, and countless cracks spread across the array patterns like a spider web. The energy light dimmed at a visible speed, and the entire array was shaking violently, as if it would collapse at any moment and could not hold on for long.
......
Three years later.
"Boom..."
A deafening roar shook the chaos. The Immortal Array, which had been under heavy attack, could no longer hold on. Its defensive light barrier shattered completely, and the array disintegrated into billions of fragments, eventually turning into nothingness. A small gap appeared on the outer edge of the Myriad Immortals Array, like a crack opening in an indestructible city wall.
"Next!" A fierce glint flashed in the Eighteenth Prince's eyes as he relentlessly activated the Heavenly Pearl of Illusion, its silvery beam sweeping across the formation once more. "Heavenly Pearl of Illusion, break through illusion! I'd like to see how long your formation can hold out!"
