Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 4029: Jing Mumu Breaks Through (Three)

The disciples of the Black Demon Palace immediately behaved like they were facing a powerful enemy. Ye Kai’s presence surged as he stood forward in front of all of the disciples.

The Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows and the Immortal Sect of Taibai, coupled with over a dozen Immortal Emperor organisations, had formed almost a thousand people in total. Meanwhile, the Black Demon Palace only had around three hundred remaining. On top of that, many of them were no longer in peak condition, severely affecting their battle prowess. If they really began fighting, the Black Demon Palace would not have any advantages at all.

Even though they came from a peak organisation and the cultivation methods and secret techniques they grasped could not be rivalled by regular organisations, not everyone was a prodigy.

With no other choice, Ye Kai began negotiating with everyone. As a representative of the Black Demon Palace, he began making concessions, no longer claiming the spiritual Qi spring for themselves. Instead, he planned on sharing a part of it with everyone.

“We already have enough people on our side. If we have to include your Black Demon Palace as well, the bit of Taiji spiritual Qi produced by the spring won’t be enough to go around at all. As a result, it’s best if you leave here, fellows of the Black Demon Palace.”

The Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows and the Immortal Sect of Taibai declined this suggestion. An unavoidable battle erupted between the two sides.

As soon as the two sides began fighting, the Black Demon Palace lost the upper hand.

“Abandon the spiritual Qi spring. Disciples of the Black Demon Palace, protect fellow Jing!” Ye Kai bellowed out. He took on two opponents at the same time, engaging two peak Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals in an intense battle.

They were Yun Zhan of the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows and Qiu Xue of the Immortal Sect of Taibai. Both of them were talented and very powerful, regarded as the strongest beneath Immortal Monarch in their respective organisations. Although they were not Ye Kai’s opponents if they fought alone, they matched Ye Kai when working together.

All of the disciples of the Black Demon Palace fought on with difficulty. Everyone knew that they had no chance at victory, so they held on arduously. They aimed to buy a little more time for Jing Mumu who was amidst her breakthrough.

At this moment, a golden arrow shot through the battlefield, heading straight towards Jing Mumu who sat on the ground.

A Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows went after Jing Mumu. His face was cold, and there was a hint of wariness in the depths of his eyes. He put his full strength behind the attack this time, immediately using a powerful secret technique from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows. The arrow was like a bolt of lightning, flashing past instantly.

Clearly, he knew Jing Mumu’s strength, wanting to eliminate her while she was breaking through.

Jing Mumu seemed to sense the nearing danger. Her eyelids trembled gently as her presence fluctuated slightly.

“You want to launch a sneak attack against fellow Jing ? You’re asking to die!” At this precise moment, a furious bellow rang out. Lang Shan appeared in front of Jing Mumu with his burly body. He directly punched out and erupted with his strength as a peak Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal, immediately shattering the golden arrow.

Lang Shan seemed to lock onto the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal who attacked Jing Mumu. His eyes were glued to this person as he rushed towards him aggressively in pursuit.

However, before Lang Shan could approach him, multiple disciples of the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows struck at the same time. They drew their bows and condensed arrows from their energy, shooting them towards Lang Shan at the same time.

Lang Shan swung his fists again and again, striking the incoming arrows with great precision. With a series of deafening rumbles, Lang Shan was beaten into a retreat mid-air.

His assailants were all late Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals at the very least. They might not have been Lang Shan’s opponent alone, but he obviously struggled to fend them off when there were multiple people working together.

Spurt! Lang Shan retreated in front of Jing Mumu. Blood sprayed from his mouth uncontrollably. His face was pale.

However, before Lang Shan could catch his breath, a lethal threat suddenly appeared. In front of him, over ten Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows stood in a row, drawing their bows at the same time.

Lang Shan’s heart suddenly sank.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In the next moment, over ten golden arrows soared through the air, heading right towards Jing Mumu.

That was only the first wave of attacks as well. From another direction, another group similar in size from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrow stood in a row. Their bows were drawn, all aiming at Jing Mumu.

Apart from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows, the powerful disciples of the Immortal Sect of Taibai struck as well. Eight of their Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals worked together, assembling a formation that pressed towards Jing Mumu.

At that moment, Jing Mumu had become everyone’s target. Almost thirty Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals attacked her.

The disciples of the Black Demon Palace were all furious. They abandoned their opponents and desperately rushed towards Jing Mumu, wanting to block these attacks for her.

However, with their disadvantage in numbers, all of them struggled to do anything. They even had difficulty protecting themselves, so how could they still care about others?

Lang Shan’s eyes were filled with determination. He began to ignite his vitality. At that moment, his vitality surged as his armour erupted with blinding light. His burly figure was like a steel wall, standing fearlessly in front of Jing Mumu.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With a series of rumbles, the arrows landed on Lang Shan’s burly figure one by one, making him spurt blood again and again. The supreme quality immortal artifact armour on him exploded violently, having shattered from the attacks.

After all, these were attacks from over twenty Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. Let alone Lang Shan, even the stronger Ye Kai would end up heavily injured.

However, Lang Shan had managed to block all of those attacks from the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows alone. In return, he was declared dead. The power of the formation around the Taiji mountain range descended, and he was expelled.

Lang Shan had been eliminated!

The danger that Jing Mumu faced had not been resolved with that. The disciples of the Immortal Sect of Taibai arrived. The eight Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals assembled a killing formation and arrived above Jing Mumu, raining down with terrifying beams of light.

He Tian and Jing Yao appeared above Jing Mumu with a group of disciples from the Black Demon Palace. They established a defensive formation and blocked the killing formation from the Immortal Sect of Taibai.

At this moment, resplendent golden light illuminated the surroundings. The Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows launched a second wave of attacks. Almost thirty golden arrows gathered in the air before merging as one into an even larger arrow that shot towards Jing Mumu.

This was a secret technique of the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows. At this moment, almost thirty Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals were working together, pushing the power of this strike beyond the boundary of Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal and directly into the domain of Immortal Monarchs.

“Oh no, the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows is determined to deal with fellow Jing,” He Tian cried out. The defensive formation assembled by him, Jing Yao, and a few disciples of the Black Demon Palace immediately shifted locations, blocking the arrow with their full strength.

Boom!

With a great rumble, the defensive formation shattered. Everyone was launched away while spurting with blood. Their expressions became haggard as they suffered heavy injuries. They would struggle to keep fighting now.

After shattering the defensive formation, the golden arrow condensed by almost thirty Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals of the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows continued onwards without weakening, directly approaching Jing Mumu with terrifying power that was enough to make all Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals pale.

Above, the eight-man killing formation assembled by the Immortal Sect of Taibai quickly descended as well.

Ye Kai was tied up with Yun Zhan and Qiu Xue. He saw how Jing Mumu was in danger. He panicked inside, but he was locked in battle against them. The other disciples of the Black Demon Palace were forced into a retreat as well, struggling to protect themselves.

Having come so far, the Black Demon Palace could no longer free up any strength to assist Jing Mumu.

Moreover, the danger that Jing Mumu currently faced could not be resolved by just a few Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals.

At that moment, an illusionary rabbit appeared above the Taiji mountain range, staring closely at Jing Mumu.

That was not all. The Immortal Emperors from various organisations all focused on Jing Mumu outside the formation around the mountain range. They wanted to see if someone as deviously talented as her would actually be eliminated when she was breaking through.

At this moment, Jing Mumu had truly become the centre of attention.

The battle prowess she had demonstrated was far too great. As a peak Xuan Immortal, it was chilling enough that she had killed so many Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. Even late Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals could not block too many of her strikes.

Just how many people in the Immortals’ World could rival such startling feats?

“Looks like she’s going to be expelled from the Taiji mountain range soon too. What a pity. I really wanted to see just how shocking her performance would be once she reached Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal…”

“For a peak Xuan Immortal to come so far, it’s enough for her name to go down in history…”

“Why don’t we have a discussion about changing the rules of the Taiji mountain range? Anyone who is in the middle of breaking through will receive the full protection of the formation…”

“Yeah, I think that would work. This is a trial ground for nurturing the next generation anyway. We should make that the case…”

......

…

Many great elders from peak organisations came up with suggestions. As a matter of fact, in order to witness Jing Mumu’s performance after breaking through to Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal, they were tempted to change the rules of the Taiji mountain range immediately.

As for whether their disciples would suffer as a result, that was no longer important in the eyes of a few. They only wanted to witness the glory of a supreme prodigy.

However, as soon as these suggestions appeared, the Blade Sect of Trickling Moon vehemently objected. Jing Mumu was with the Black Demon Palace. As the Black Demon Palace’s mortal enemy, the Blade Sect of Trickling Moon could not allow such a peerless prodigy to mature successfully.

The huge golden arrow had already arrived before Jing Mumu in the Taiji mountain range. It was about to plunge into her forehead.

Jing Mumu was already in the face of danger. The formation spirit that protected the Taiji mountain range was ready to interfere.

At that critical moment, Jing Mumu suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes shone extremely brightly, and they even seemed to glow. Two strands of pure-white sword Qi seemed to pierce the air.

Suddenly, she extended her right hand. Her white, slender hand turned into a blur, reaching towards the incoming golden arrow.

The moment she took action, her entire presence swelled up like a volcano that had remained dormant for all this time. It immediately erupted, releasing unparalleled power.

The power was so great that all of the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals present were stunned. They felt chills.

With a rumble, the huge golden arrow halted before Jing Mumu, unable to advance another inch. A slender white hand gripped the arrow firmly, making it come to a stop.

“Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal! Oh no, she’s broken through!” The faces of the disciples of the Immortal Sect of Divine Arrows who launched the arrow all became ugly.

At this moment, Jing Mumu’s presence experienced an overwhelming change. She was no longer a peak Xuan Immortal. She had truly reached Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal.

Although Ye Kai was unable to break free from his opponents, he had obviously been keeping an eye on Jing Mumu constantly. Sensing Jing Mumu’s successful breakthrough, he finally relaxed. He could not help but let out a howl of jubilation.

“Fellow Jing has reached Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal successfully. Fantastic, this is just fantastic…” Nearby, many of the dishevelled disciples of the Black Demon Palace were elated as well.

At this moment, Jing Mumu suddenly swung her hand that gripped the golden arrow. In the next moment, the golden arrow that originally targeted her forehead shot up instead, turning into a golden streak of light. Its target was now the killing formation assembled by the eight Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals of the Immortal Sect of Taibai.

Their faces immediately changed as their eyes narrowed in fright and panic.

Unfortunately, the golden arrow was extremely fast. They did not have any time to respond.

Boom!

In the next moment, a rumble rang out, and the formation assembled by the eight Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals crumbled like paper. They were all blown away as blood spurted from their mouths. Meanwhile, the flood of energy from the golden arrow continued forwards right towards them.

At that critical moment, the power of the formation appeared, declaring the deaths of these eight people. As it protected them, it also expelled them from the mountain range.
