Chapter 588: Chapter 299: The Great Rout (Long Chapter)

The area of Immortal Mountain Island is much larger than Wind-Fire Island, and the island originally had three defense lines. The one led by Tianchenzi and arranged by Li An and others is the newly added fourth defense line!

The Dao Sect, which destroyed the Demon Sect back then, had seized many of the sect’s treasures. Now, they have taken everything out, including some very high-level Demon Bones and materials, and have arranged them according to the Array of Transformation meticulously thought out by the upper echelons of the Dao Sect.

This process was quite lengthy, and due to the multitude of matters, Tianchenzi could not oversee it every day.

Li An kept waiting and finally found an opportunity. On this day, while embedding various materials into the formation eyes, he quietly took out a corpse of an Exotic Spirit, which had already been refined so the ominous aura was internalized and not released. Otherwise, he would have had to go through a lot more trouble.

While looking for an opportunity to bury the Exotic Spirit’s corpse, Li An was also deducing the scenario of the great battle.

In fact, as Tianchenzi said, the greatest pressure we face actually comes from the Exotic Realm.

As long as the eight main islands are broken, the entire defense line... will collapse.

When the anomaly occurs, this place will become a breakthrough point for the Exotic Realm, Immortal Mountain Island will be shattered, and the defense line will be completely defeated. As a result, forces from outside will directly rush into Mist Sea...

At that time, the Dao Sect instead has no need to stop them.

Li An can also follow and enter the Exotic Realm!

According to Gong Shanqing, many cultivators of the Spirit Realm will be swept into the Exotic Realm. All parties in the Exotic Realm will return to "choose people," giving him an opportunity to find the descendants of Lady Yi...

...

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, another year passed.

This year has been extremely long for the world. A great battle is imminent, the bow is drawn, making everyone tense.

There are only a few months until the next anomaly in Mist Sea!

Recently, eerie energies have erupted in Mist Sea from time to time, followed by a large amount of Immortal Dao Material with dazzling, beautiful lights.

Yet, the outside world remains surprisingly calm, with no commotion, everyone quietly waiting.

The more this is so, the greater the pressure on the Dao Sect.

Previously, disturbances indicated that the outside world was in a leaderless state, making it challenging to unify actions and creating chaos.

The current situation, however, indicates that someone has been quietly organizing everyone.

Brahma Sect, Five Elements Sect, Sun and Moon Sect, Taiqing Sect...

They are waiting for an opportune moment.

...

"The Array of Transformation has been laid down. Next, it’s about personnel arrangement. The further forward the position, the more weird storms they have to withstand... requiring those with strong Demon Skills."

Tianchenzi gathered Li An and others to select personnel, and all present disciples were eager, wanting to be the first to die in the frontline.

None were afraid.

"Li An,"

Tianchenzi picked some people, and suddenly his gaze fell on Li An, saying, "Although you have lost all your Demon Skills, your attainment in Array is remarkable. Would you go to the most front position?"

Li An had a lot of doubts in his heart since coming to Immortal Mountain Island. He always felt a bit odd, as if Tianchenzi was deliberately targeting him...

But what conflict could there be between himself and Tianchenzi? Li Yunxiao was killed by Li An, but Tianchenzi is unaware of that...

Could a dignified Immortal be so narrow-minded, harboring hatred against Li An just because of a past ill-fated romance with Tan Qingxue and some friction with Li Yunxiao?

How could someone so narrow-minded become an Immortal?

Yet he nodded and said, "I obey the order, Master—"

Immortal Mountain Island is destined to fall, and the Dao Sect defense line is doomed to collapse... From the moment Li An acquired the Nine Pearl Linked Stars mysterious corpse, he was already the gravedigger of this great upheaval.

It doesn’t matter.

The Exotic Realm is imminent, he is not afraid of the weird storm, and among the Mysterious Creatures, there is someone to protect him. Tianchenzi’s plan to kill using borrowed hands... will ultimately only kill himself.

That day, Li An, along with others, went to the frontline to stand guard.

...

"Friends of Dao Sect, this is our last negotiation attempt with you. We hope you cherish it!"

"The things in Mist Sea belong to the entire world. What you are doing is against the tide, and you will surely suffer backlash!"

"No matter how strong Dao Sect is, can it still fight against the whole world? The outcome is already determined, so why insist so stubbornly?"

The voices calling from the outside world grew louder, and some high-levels from Brahma Sect, Five Elements Sect, and Sun and Moon Sect have appeared.

In response, the Dao Sect did not reply at all, only steadfastly holding the defense line!

If they could reach an agreement, they would have done so long ago.

War is the final outcome!

Rumble!

As time passed, the disturbances within Mist Sea grew stronger and stronger, occasionally revealing mirage-like scenes.

It was as if a space not belonging to the Spirit Realm was about to invade this world, causing a strong counterattack from the Dao Sect’s world rules, with various forces erupting in Mist Sea, appearing like mighty waves.

"Is the Exotic Realm about to descend?"

"According to the timeline, it’s soon, within a few days..."

"Prepare... to charge!"

The whole world is watching!

Inside the Dao Sect’s defense line, all the disciples stood solemnly; everyone was ready for the great battle.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, finally, the aura emitting from that illusory space grew stronger and stronger until it seemed like a colossal entity finally stuck in one hand, a corner of the Exotic Realm successfully descended—

Boom!

The terrifying sound of an explosion roared above Mist Sea, like a tear has been made in the sky.

That was a world of dazzling lights, surging with colorful Immortal Dao materials, various pure Immortal Lights flowing like water and then pouring down through the crack in the Spirit Realm’s sky—

A massive amount of Immortal Dao material, like a vast heavenly river thousands of miles wide, cascaded down, sending the sea waters of Mist Sea tumbling and erupting.
