Chapter 3706: The Mountain Protection Formation is Broken

Even though they were inside the mountain protection formation, the people of Liuguang Sword Sect still changed their expressions when they felt the power of this sword.

The power of this sword was simply too strong, exceeding imagination; not only was the golden barrier severely damaged, but even the surrounding space began to show cracks.

What kind of strength is this? Is this the legendary Immortal Lord?

Countless people were filled with shock, never expecting such a powerful expert to appear in the Lower Heaven Region.

However, although Jian Juechen's sword was powerful, the mountain protection formation ultimately held, and the cracks quickly repaired, returning to their previous state.

Just as everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, the Law Enforcement Hall Master, Dao Jie, rushed over.

"Sect Master, something bad has happened! That last strike consumed half of our immortal crystals, and the remaining ones can probably only withstand one more sword!"

The last time Liuguang Sword Sect activated its mountain protection formation to resist the Blood Asura Clan, it almost emptied its years of savings.

Although they had accumulated some recently, the number of immortal crystals was incomparable to before.

That last sword was incredibly powerful, and although the mountain protection formation held, the consumption was also extremely alarming, instantly depleting half of the immortal crystals.

Upon hearing this news, everyone's hearts immediately sank to the bottom.

If the mountain protection formation was broken, then all that was left was to fight to the death.

The only hope now was that the opponent could only unleash one sword, not a second.

Facts proved this was just wishful thinking; after only a brief pause, Jian Juechen's second sword struck again, even more fierce than the first.

A hundred-zhang long sword light heavily struck the mountain protection barrier; the golden barrier's light dimmed, trembling continuously, and cracks like a spiderweb spread everywhere with cracking sounds.

Unlike last time, without the support of immortal crystals, the damaged golden barrier received no replenishment, appearing completely on the verge of collapse.

Jian Juechen's face showed a hint of triumph, and he gently swung another sword.

Crack!

This time, the mountain protection formation could no longer resist and disintegrated into countless specks of light, dissipating into the Void Realm.

Having shattered the formation with three strikes, Jian Juechen did not continue to attack but stepped back, standing behind.

His strength was too great and should not belong to this realm, so he did not want to continue attacking and cause too much of a stir.

Moreover, in his heart, these people in front of him were not worthy of him taking action.

The Immortal Lord's strength was too formidable; the reason Sword Ling Xiao brought him here this time was simply as a precaution.

"Hahaha, without your turtle shell, where will you hide now?!"

Du Wuju let out an arrogant laugh, holding his long sword, and walked towards the mountain gate.

In his eyes, without the protection of the mountain protection formation, he alone was enough to destroy the entire Sect.

"Get out of my way!"

With an angry roar, a fiery red figure appeared, and a short spear, carrying endless power, directly pierced towards his face.

It was Jin Meier who attacked; Ye Bufan left them here precisely to protect the Sect, so naturally, she could not back down at this moment.

Du Wuju, who had been full of arrogance, instantly changed his expression upon feeling the power of this spear.

The opponent's strength was also at Immortal King Peak, not inferior to his own in the slightest.

What's going on? When did the Lower Heaven Region's strength become so formidable?

Though confused, he dared not be negligent with his hands and quickly swung his sword, clashing with the short spear.

The spear and sword met, emitting a harsh clang of metal, and then both retreated dozens of feet.

Neither gained an advantage from the clash; it was a draw.

Feeling Jin Meier's formidable strength, Du Wuju no longer dared to underestimate her and unleashed the sword techniques of the Four Directions Sword Sect, attacking her.

However, even with his full effort, the two remained evenly matched, fighting to a standstill.

A hint of astonishment flashed in Yan Wuqing's eyes; clearly, this was somewhat beyond his expectations.

Normally, in his perception, the Immortal King Peak experts in the Lower Heaven Region were few and far between, yet he never expected such a powerful expert to exist in such a small Sect.

"Two Junior Brothers, attack together! Let's see how many such experts they have."

Yan Wuqing waved his hand, and the two Immortal King Peak experts beside him drew their precious swords and charged towards Liuguang Sword Sect.

"Stop right there!"

With two delicate shouts, Xuan Yuan Linglong and Situ Dianmo rushed out, each blocking one of the Core Disciples.

The six individuals engaged in a chaotic battle in front of the mountain gate; their strengths were quite similar, all at Immortal King Peak.

At first, the three from the Four Directions Sword Sect thought they could gain an advantage with their exquisite sword techniques.

But after they started fighting, they realized they had completely overthought it; the opponents were not weak at all, whether in strength or sword art Cultivation Technique, and were even slightly superior.

After a hundred moves, Du Wuju and the other two not only failed to gain an advantage but instead fell into a disadvantage.

"How can this be?"

Yan Wuqing's expression was extremely grim; he had originally thought that the Disciples of the Four Directions Sword Sect, being high and mighty, would sweep everything aside upon arriving in the Lower Heaven Region, but in one-on-one combat, they couldn't gain any advantage at all.

He couldn't understand how a small Sect from the Lower Realm could possess so many powerful experts.

Seeing that relying on the three Junior Brothers was not enough, he leaped forward, preparing to join the fray.

As soon as he moved, a sharp sword light cut through the Void Realm and appeared before him.

"Such powerful Sword Intent!"

As a Disciple of the Four Directions Sword Sect, with profound mastery and understanding of swordsmanship, Yan Wuqing immediately sensed the extraordinary nature of this sword.

He swung his precious sword, unleashing seven or eight consecutive strikes to completely neutralize the sword light before him.

Looking up, a stern-faced woman stood before him, her gaze incredibly fierce.

It was Leng Qingqiu who attacked; besides Jin Meier and the other two, she was already the strongest among those present.

In terms of cultivation, she was at the Immortal King Early Stage, far from being comparable to Yan Wuqing.

However, she had obtained the Legacy of the First Sword Immortal, and with exquisite swordsmanship and the domineering Lvxian Sword, her combat power was greatly enhanced, giving her the ability to fight beyond her cultivation level.

"Your swordsmanship is good, but unfortunately, your cultivation is a bit weak."

After a brief moment of shock, a smile curled at the corner of Yan Wuqing's mouth.

The opponent was very strong, especially her swordsmanship; it could be said to be the strongest he had ever seen among those in her age group.

But her strength was still a bit lacking; she was only at the Immortal King Early Stage, and even with the enhancement of her sword techniques, she was no match for him.

His gaze fell upon the Lvxian Sword, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.

"Little girl, hand over that sword, and I can spare your life!"

Leng Qingqiu had always been a person of few words and decisive action; she bothered not with this fellow and unleashed a sky full of cold light from her Lvxian Sword, instantly engulfing the opponent.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Yan Wuqing snorted coldly and swung his precious sword to meet her.

His understanding of the Dao of the sword was not as good as Leng Qingqiu's, and his swordsmanship was not as exquisite as hers, but being at the Immortal King Peak, he ultimately held an absolute advantage.

The two fought for more than a dozen moves, with Yan Wuqing steadily gaining the upper hand.

After more than twenty moves, Leng Qingqiu became somewhat flustered, and in her distraction, she was struck by a palm on her left shoulder, sending her flying dozens of feet away.
