“The true strength of a dynasty! The Sect Alliance, at the end of the day, is just a faction, often hidden in the shadows. But the Great Jin Dynasty, with its vast territory and countless humans, has produced innumerable cultivators. In critical moments, these people can all be transformed into combat power…”
“No wonder some Great Beings rank the Great Jin Dynasty above the Sect Alliance. It’s not just because of the Space-Time Sword Saint and the Empress of Great Jin, but also these native forces…”
“The tide has turned! The Great Jin and the Sect Alliance have entered a tug-of-war!”
“Incredible, there are actually three or four Morning Glow Great Beings hidden within the Great Jin. This battle has exposed them all.”
“Scattered cultivator Lu Fengnian, leader of the Cyan State Gathering of Heroes, and the Daoist of Sanqing Temple, they are all Morning Glow Realm Great Beings!?”
“Keep in mind, this is only a small portion of the Great Jin’s strength. The main force of a million soldiers has been led by Prime Minister Jiang Canghai to the Western Buddhist Kingdom.”
…
…
Many who were watching the battle from afar couldn’t help but feel shocked.
Who could have thought that at this critical moment, unexpected reinforcements would appear and directly reverse the situation!
Seeing this, the elders of the Sect Alliance felt a surge of anxiety.
This battle must be resolved quickly, or if Meng Qingzhou returns, they will undoubtedly lose.
All forces were focused on that figure surrounded by the river of time and space.
Although it seemed like both sides were evenly matched, the real focus was always on Sword Saint Meng Qin.
The Sect Alliance wanted to end the battle swiftly, capture the Empress before Meng Qingzhou returned, and use her to command the lords.
The Great Jin Dynasty, on the other hand, aimed to delay as long as possible, until Meng Qingzhou awakened.
The elders gathered outside the battlefield to discuss, then nodded solemnly to each other and transmitted their voices to the twelve Morning Glow Great Beings who were fiercely battling Dongfang Liuli:
“Honored ancestors, for the sake of future generations, please sacrifice your lives. Capture the Empress of Great Jin at all costs, dead or alive!”
“The rise and fall of the Sect Alliance is in your hands!”
“If you fall, you will be eternally revered and worshipped by future generations. You will forever be heroes of the Alliance! Please go to your deaths.”
Hearing this, the twelve Morning Glow Great Beings exchanged glances and then smiled calmly.
People often said the Alliance was corrupt, with each family vying for fame and fortune. However, as ancestors, they had always been open-minded. Their lifelong wish was for the prosperity of the Alliance. Otherwise, with their strength, how could the elders of the Alliance command them?
“Everyone, the Alliance has reached this point partly because of us. We’ve lived long enough, thousands of years, and breaking through to the Sky-Reaching Realm is no longer possible. We have no regrets.”
“Yes, our descendants are foolish, and the rules are not strict. It’s our responsibility. We didn’t work hard enough to eliminate the divisions between families when we founded the Alliance… Going to our deaths is only right, reaping what we’ve sown.”
“Enough talk, let’s capture the Empress quickly!”
The twelve Morning Glow Great Beings smiled calmly, filled with killing intent, and looked at the heavily wounded but still standing Dongfang Liuli.
“Qin Liuli, if only you were a descendant of our Alliance, how great that would be. Unfortunately…”
“Though you have the qualifications to be the overlord of the Wilderness, humans are not saints, nor are they immortal spirits. Strength lies in power and realm, not in the state of mind. We cannot be like the Hidden Sword Lord, handing over such a vast foundation.”
“So… we can only sacrifice you.”
As the words fell, the twelve Morning Glow Great Beings all began to burn their lifespans, instantly consuming the remaining years of their lives, leaving themselves only a moment.
Their combat power and realm also rose to the true late stage of the Morning Glow Realm!
As the words fell.
The twelve Morning Glow Great Beings gave Dongfang Liuli no time to react. Three of them formed a trapping formation to seal off all directions, while the other nine attacked in succession, using their trump cards without reservation.
In an instant, the void trembled.
All the heavens and realms shook, the three thousand great paths faintly appeared, and even the “Imperial Dao Heavenly Book” was shattered.
The void cracks, like abysses, tore through half of the Northern Territory, extending to the boundless distance.
The waves from the alternate space even spilled over into the snowfields, shredding all living things.
Dongfang Liuli spat blood, unable to hold on, and fell into a dire situation.
“Your Majesty!? Save the Empress!” Qin Fenghuo turned his head and immediately became furious, roaring with rage, ready to draw his sword and rush to aid.
But a figure blocked his way, a person in a black cloak with golden patterns on the edges.
They were the dozens of followers previously teleported away by Meng Qingzhou, who had rushed back from all corners of the world.
“Stop.” The cloaked figure raised a hand and said coldly, “Today, no one can save the Empress of Great Jin. She must die! Including Sword Saint Meng Qin!”
One by one, the black-cloaked figures appeared again, disrupting the battlefield, causing the situation, which had been gradually improving for the Great Jin Dynasty, to fall back into disadvantage.
The Daoist of Sanqing Temple, the leader of the Gathering of Heroes, and the scattered cultivator Lu Fengnian were all blocked.
Even the Guardian Beast of the nation was besieged by six Morning Glow Realm cloaked figures.
“Heaven helps the Alliance!” The elders of the Sect Alliance were immediately invigorated. They hadn’t expected that at this critical moment, Ji Wushuang’s followers would return!
Qin Fenghuo, his hair standing on end in fury, shouted:
“Kill! Save the Empress! Even if the heavens want to destroy Great Jin, we will defy the heavens!!”
Seeing the Empress bleeding, all the soldiers were enraged, fighting desperately with red eyes.
“Hahaha… The outcome is decided! Capture the Empress alive, threaten Sword Saint Meng Qin, and thus… the fall of Great Jin!” The elders of the Sect Alliance laughed heartily, extremely pleased.
“The war has reached this point, and it’s finally coming to an end.”
Suddenly.
A sword light pierced through the head of the elder who was laughing wildly, accompanied by an untimely voice:
“Who said the outcome is decided?”
