Chapter 490: 490,【Demon Sect Heroic Soul】
Above the Demon Sect, Lu Xun floated in mid-air, nestled between the Spiritual Energy Vortex and the dense Sword Fate.
He was completely oblivious to everything happening around him.
He had no idea that his senior brother had awakened at this moment, nor was he aware of his senior brother’s plan to break through death’s barrier using his Sword Fate.
To be precise, what was being borrowed was not the Sword Fate, but the [Sword Fate buff] that Lu Xun released to the surroundings.
For Yan Li, having this extra boost was already enough.
Under normal circumstances, if he wanted to break through, shrug off the death’s barrier and continue advancing, he would need at least another decade.
However, the attribute boost that Lu Xun inherently provided filled this gap perfectly.
Was it merely a coincidence?
Obviously not.
The Great Sacrificial Rite gazed upon the scene unfolding before his eyes, watching the Supreme Lord under the sky who had lost one of his arms, as well as the [The Sword Qi is Near] that could suddenly wield swordsmanship. A sense of foreboding swelled in his heart.
He realized that when he came to the border of the Eastern Region, he seemed to have already found himself in a chess match.
And the one controlling the chess pieces was the white-robed middle-aged man who had just vanished into thin air.
——Sir!
Yes, the Sir had already mapped out everything happening within the Eastern Region.
Before he left for another place, he had already created a layered plan.
Among those plans included this moment, where Lu Xun attracted Sword Fate and Yan Li borrowed the increase provided by the Sword Fate to break his barrier early!
Somewhere in Hidden Mountain, a giant sword’s illusory shadow pierced through the sky and earth suddenly emerged from within the dense mist around Yan Li as boundless pressure rippled around him.
The breakthrough was imminent!
Under the dome of the sky, after being gravely injured, the strength of the Supreme Lord’s avatar diminished greatly.
Although [The Sword Qi is Near] had returned to a state of having no controller, it still equals.
The Grand Sacrificer knew all too well that he was racing against time.
If he could break the Mountain Protection Array of the Demon Sect before Yan Li’s breakthrough, he could annihilate everyone there!
However, if he was still obstructed outside the Demon Sect before Yan Li broke through, then it would likely be his own death!
The Grand Sacrificer didn’t hold back any longer. With his other two avatars, he began bombarding the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.
With every attack, the earth quaked. Yet, this seemingly simplistic formation still stood firm.
In the center of the great array, Shen Yan held a jade tablet in his hand, his complexion not looking all too well.
In reality, the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array seemed strong, but it couldn’t hold on for too much longer.
This brought him an immense amount of pressure.
Right now, the lives of his master, his junior uncle and Elder Gui were all in his hands.
One misstep, and everyone would die!
This was a burden he, as the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, had to bear!
“Boom——!”
A rumble emanated from the outside of the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, spreading waves of ripples in the air.
From the center of the Great Array, Shen Yan was sent flying, blood pouring from his mouth.
And at that very moment, an anomaly occurred again on Demon Sect Burial Mountain.
A dice disappeared into thin air, and when it returned, it had reached a specific location within the Mountain Protection Array.
A broken black flag departed from the Burial Mountain to arrive beside Shen Yan, propping him up and shielding him from the aftershocks coming from outside.
A spear, a ring… all of the Immortal Artifacts on the 699th step of Demon Sect Burial Mountain vanished.
They integrated into the large formation, lending a hand to Shen Yan!
Instruments possess a consciousness of their own. They were aware that the man currently struggling to hold his own and trying to turn the tides was their master’s senior brother.
