Chapter 189: Four Hours! Victory Is Determined!

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Above the dome of the sky, ten mushroom-shaped clouds appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone was silent.

There was silence!

Absolute silence!

Not only was there silence, but there was also something inexplicable.

Initially, they thought that the Teleportation Array was the only solution to survive, but they never thought that the Fiendcelestial Cult had prepared for this and guessed that there would be a Teleportation Array.

That was something that no one had expected.

The colored mushroom clouds signified the collapse of the space. In other words, the cultivators that had been teleported away had all died.

Yes, all of them died.

Space collapse was the most terrifying thing. Only Essence Soul realm cultivators could break free and survive with the help of the Essence Soul.

Those below the Essence Soul realm would definitely die in the event of a space collapse.

Not only would they die, but their corpses would be gone too.

Only powerhouses could study the mysterious relationship between time and space.

The cultivators quieted down.

They looked at the mushroom clouds in the sky and were at a loss for words.

In particular, some cultivators, who were still indignant previously, were all silent now.

Who would have expected such a thing to happen again?

Who would have thought that the Fiendcelestial Cult would actually do this?

They were simply inhumane.

“Beasts.”

In the array formation, even Ye Ping could not help but clench his fist at this moment.

It was because Li Yu had been in one of those ten array formations.

At this moment, Ye Ping’s eyes were bloodshot but he didn’t say anything. Ye Ping was suppressing his anger because he knew that being angry was pointless and it wouldn’t do anything to help the situation. Hence, he decided to stay calm first.

However, even so, Ye Ping couldn’t help but shudder.

Huangfu Tianlong, who was on the other side, was clenching his fists tightly and his eyes were full of resentment.

“Beasts, they’re bastards of the Fiendcelestial Cult.”

Huangfu Tianlong was boiling with fury. Although Li Yu and him weren’t considered close, they at least knew each other and hit it off well. Hence, they were considered friends.

Now that his friend died tragically at the hands of the Fiendcelestial Cult, how could he not be furious?

He was a powerful nobleman of Ten Nations but he didn’t expect that to be the outcome.

“Hurry up! Enter the array formation!”

At this moment, someone spoke up and alarmed everyone.

Everyone couldn’t help but freeze in shock.

‘Things have already come to this and they still want to send more people into the array formation?’

‘Aren’t they sending them onto the path towards death?’

“Elder, things have already come to this, why do you want to send people into the Teleportation Array?”

“Yeah, Elder, the Fiendcelestial Cult is already blocking us and killing us. If we try to sabotage ourselves…”

“Elder, isn’t this clearly asking us to kill ourselves?”

The voices filled the air. Some people felt that since the Fiendcelestial Cult had already found out about the Teleportation Array, activating it again was just self-sabotage.

“Cut the crap! This is the only chance to survive. As long as someone escapes, spreads the news, and brings some reinforcements to help us, we will be saved. The Fiendcelestial Cult has already declared that they will take control of Wei Nation within four hours.”

“Right now, if we just sit and wait, we will only face death in the end!”

The elder’s voice was cold and indifferent.

After he said that, everyone indeed fell silent.

He was right. If they didn’t use the Teleportation Array, what could they use?

They couldn’t possibly die there.

“Elder, have you guys already found out long ago that the Fiendcelestial Cult would be attacking the Teleportation Array?”

“Otherwise, why did you let the powerful nobles of the Ten Nations leave first? Is it because their status is high and hence, if they are teleported away, there would be timely repercussions?”

“Besides, even if they die, we won’t face a cease of lineage, right? Our geniuses won’t fall, right? Is that so?”

However, at this moment, someone roared loudly. It was a noble of the Ten Nations who belonged to the second batch to leave. However, at this moment, he seemed to have guessed something and couldn’t help but ask.

After hearing his questioning, everyone couldn’t help but look at the Nascent Soul realm powerhouse.

“That’s right.”

The Nascent Soul realm elder answered with a composed gaze.

However, before the crowd could snap back to their senses, the elder spoke up.

“The Wei Nation is now surrounded by the Fiendcelestial Cult. They have been carefully planning for decades, and we have fallen into their trap.”

“However, if we want to truly overcome this calamity, we will have to contact the outside world. As long as the news reaches the Ten Nations Academy, there will be countless experts rushing to Wei Nation to suppress the Fiendcelestial Cult.”

“So, in this situation, priority can only be given to the nobles of the Ten Nations. They are authoritative and have much more of a say than ordinary cultivators.”

“You’re right. We let the geniuses of the Ten Nations for the sake of preserving the lineage. If the nobles die, more can be produced, but if the geniuses die, there will be no way to salvage the situation.”

“I know, it’s cruel, but you have to remember that sometimes it’s worth sacrificing some people and things for the greater good. Besides, you’re a noble of the Ten Nations.”

“You hold every fallen genius close to your hearts and if the kings of the Ten Nations are here, they would certainly agree with our idea as well.”

He said with a cold expression.

His words caused the nobles of the Ten Nations to feel a chilliness in their hearts.

However, the saddest thing was that he was right.

Every genius belonged to the Ten Nations. If a noble died, their parents would be able to give birth to more children, but if a genius died, it would be difficult to produce another genius. In particular, some smaller nations might send three or five geniuses to join the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.

They were the mainstay of the future revitalization and rise of the country. Among the nobles, there was no lack of genius, but most of them were not geniuses. They had merely built their cultivation level using a variety of pills and resources.

They were basically not considered geniuses.

Hence, if they died, the impact wouldn’t be huge and their foundation would not be affected either because their parents and nation were still around.

However, if geniuses died, the entire nation would be shaken and they would be devoured by the enemies at any time.

That was the reason that they were dejected. In fact, even if the kings of the Ten Nations were there, they would be willing to sacrifice their own sons too.

All personal interests would be insignificant compared to the bigger picture. If the sacrifice of a single person would resolve the calamity, everyone would be willing.

That was reality.

At that instant, no one spoke and they all fell silent.

They knew that the powerhouses of the Wei Nation and the elders of the Ten Nations were not willing to see such a scene.

At this moment, the Teleportation Array was activated again.

Although they knew that they would definitely die, some of them were still willing to enter the array formation. One reason was because they thought that they could survive by fluke and the other reason was that they wanted to sacrifice themselves. If they managed to escape, they would be able to spread the news and save the Wei Nation.

They wouldn’t have died in vain.

In the array formation, Ye Ping listened to everything quietly.

Although this elder was right, he could not accept it. But he also knew that he had to accept it even if he could not.

However, at the next moment, the Nascent Soul realm elder spoke.

“Dying is not the only option now.”

“We will send out three Nascent Soul realm powerhouses to come out of the great array formation and suppress this group of beasts of the Fiendcelestial Cult. If there’s anyone who’s willing, you can come along and kill this group of beasts.”

“It will all be voluntary. Life and death are destined. When the array formation is activated five minutes from now, we’ll charge over together.”

His voice was indifferent.

His words suddenly led to an uproar.

Some people panicked and some were terrified. However, many of the cultivators were arrogant.

“Damn it, I’ve long hated these beasts of the Fiendcelestial Cult. I’m going. Are any of you willing to go together with me?”

“I’ll go, even if I have to die, I’ll die upright.”

“Although I am not a genius, I can play a small role in this.”

“If we sit and wait, we will die anyway, so we might as well charge there.”

The cultivators in the array formation spoke up. They all hated the Fiendcelestial Cult and had anger pent up within them. In particular, after the array formation had been attacked, they were even more furious.

Now, they were full of zeal and were willing to charge over together.

However, 90% of the cultivators were still silent. Clearly, they were scared.

In the face of death, not many people could remain cool and collected. There were also very few who were willing and had the guts to sacrifice themselves.

“Senior Brother Ye, do you want to fight or not?”

At this moment, Huangfu Tianlong, who was at the side, asked Ye Ping if he wanted to join him.

He was a true elite in the first place. If not for the fact that the Fiendcelestial Cult had Nascent Soul realm powerhouses who were attacking the geniuses in the dark, he would have gone out and fought hard.

“Brother Huangfu, Brother Ye, are you going to go out to fight? Senior Brother Zhang Ren and I have decided to fight.”

Nangong Xing and Zhang Ren walked over with their gazes full of determination. They decided to leave the array.

Although it would be dangerous to leave the array, they really couldn’t stand it.

They were not the only ones. Many elites had walked over too. They were willing to get out of the array formation to fight, but if they could join forces, it would naturally be better.

All of a sudden, hundreds of elites also gathered. They subconsciously looked at Ye Ping and were waiting to hear his answer.

“We cultivators can fight.”

In the array formation, Ye Ping looked at purgatory outside the array formation, and then slowly said.

“Good. Senior Brother Ye, I indeed wasn’t wrong about you.”

“Brother Ye is worthy of being the best elite in Jin Nation. I truly admire you.”

“We cultivators can put up a fight! Good! Good! Good!”

After hearing Ye Ping’s words, many couldn’t help but somehow feel zealous. They even influenced some people who were still hesitating.

At this moment, several figures appeared in front of Ye Ping and the others. They were women.

“Everyone, we are disciples of the Tianyun Sect and this is the healing Spirit Pills of our sect. We don’t know if you will survive this time but I hope these pills can help you.”

Although they did not choose to go out of the array formation, they wanted to do something to help and thus gave their most valuable pills to the elites.

The only thing that upset the elites was that all the women had gone to Ye Ping and gave away pills one after another, making Huangfu Tianlong feel depressed.

“We can’t stand beside Senior Brother Ye. Look at this group of fairies, all of them are giving their precious pills to Senior Brother Ye. Poor us.”

He joked, making many of them laugh.

However, the crowd knew that in the next moment, they were going to go out of the array formation, which was very dangerous. Hence, the joke was just to ease the tension.

“Thank you all for your kindness. These pills are not that useful for us, it would be better to give them to other Fellow Daoists whose cultivation levels are lower. It would be more effective for them.”

Ye Ping turned them down.

He was right. At their level, they had secret techniques to heal their wounds even if they were seriously injured and hence, the Spirit Stones would not be very effective. Even if they swallowed them after suffering fatal injuries, there would be no use.

However, it would be very useful for the cultivators whose cultivation levels were inferior to theirs.

After hearing his words, the elites nodded. The fairies of the Tianyun Sect didn’t say anything either as they simply bowed to Ye Ping.

Immediately afterwards, they distributed the pills.

Perhaps because they had been influenced by the fairies of the Tianyun Sect, many cultivators had taken out their own pills, flying swords, or magic treasures, and gave them to the cultivators who were going out to fight.

Once they went, they might never be able to come back.

Time passed bit by bit.

The atmosphere was getting more and more depressing.

Everyone was somehow nervous and even the elites began to tense up.

All of a sudden, there was a loud and clear voice.

“We are all orthodox disciples who have cultivated hard for a hundred years for the sake of becoming immortal, protecting people, and killing demons!”

The bright voice belonged to the Nascent Soul realm powerhouse who immediately struck and a hundred-feet tall pagoda appeared behind him. It was a Dao artifact. In an instant, streams of dark-colored light emanated, suppressing thousands of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

That scene made countless cultivators in the array formation exclaim with ardor and zeal coursing through their blood.

“We cultivators can put up a fight! Everyone, let’s go!”

“Kill this group of beasts.”

“Fiendcelestial Cult disciples, your nemesis is here.”

“Bastards, all of you should die.”

The deafening roars sounded, and at this moment, figures rushed out of the big array formation with all kinds of magic weapons in their hands as they charged towards the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

Boom.

At this moment, a heavenly sword cut out from the void, and in an instant, tens of thousands of cultivators died under the sanguine sword.

However, in an instant, powerhouses that were also of the Nascent Soul realm immediately attacked to stop them and even fought with them in the sky.

It was a battle between Nascent Soul realm cultivators. It wasn’t of the same level at all.

The battle between them was extremely terrifying and enough to destroy the world.

“Kill!”

At this moment, Ye Ping left the array formation.

His simple words were indifferent.

In the next moment, Ye Ping turned into a ray of golden light. He had the Heavenly River Swordsmanship in his left hand and the Ancient True Dragon fist in his right hand. The Fiendcelestial Cult disciples were killed by Ye Ping like tofu.

“Kill!”

Huangfu Tianlong followed behind Ye Ping. A Dragon-Elephant appeared behind him. It seemed to have slashed hundreds of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

Nangong Xing, Zhang Ren, Chen Hongfei and others were not weak either as their bodies were all covered in blood.

They had too much anger pent up within them. The Fiendcelestial Cult disciples who were outside the array formation previously were extremely arrogant. Now that they had left the array formation, everyone held their breaths.

They all breathed at this moment.

They were a group of fearless cultivators, because they knew that once they left, it would be hard to survive and thus they were all ready to die.

Hence, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples had lost their greatest advantage but they could still destroy them because the cultivators were afraid of death previously.

However, now that they were no longer afraid, it was a true battle of strength.

Both parties were fighting hard.

At this moment, the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples, who were hidden in the dark, suddenly appeared.

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

Deafening shouts filled the air, and a large number of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples surged onto the streets. They were not ordinary Fiendcelestial Cult disciples.

They were the true elites of the Fiendcelestial Cult, each with cold gazes in their eyes. They weren’t scared of the cultivators at all.

Besides, the weakest of them all were in the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm. That was the true power of the Fiendcelestial Cult.

The sudden arrival of the Fiendcelestial Cult disciples did make the cultivators feel somewhat pressurized. They had long ambushed there and were waiting to start a massacre after the cultivators appeared.

Pfft!

Heads flew up into the sky.

Corpses landed.

Crimson blood flowed in the capital of Wei Nation.

It was a bloody battle that was harsh and brutal.

The first group of cultivators who charged out had indeed killed plenty of Fiendcelestial Cult disciples. However, they were not true elites.

With the appearance of this group of elites, the cultivators in the capital were once again surprised.

Not far away, a middle-aged man who was holding a flying sword in his hand stabbed the head of a Fiendcelestial Cult disciple, and before he could laugh, a ray of light charged over and exploded immediately.

A young cultivator, who seemed to be about 17 or 18 years old, was holding a three-feet green sword and had his heart pierced through but he was still swinging his sword. Although he soon lost consciousness, he was still standing moments before he died.

Even a female cultivator, who had an ordinary appearance and bloodshot eyes, charged out with her sword. She managed to kill three Fiendcelestial Cult disciples alone but dozens of figures appeared and stabbed her in the heart.

She fell straight to the ground and died. Even her corpse was incomplete.

“Damn it, you beasts, I’ll fight you hard.”

“Even the female cultivator has attacked. I’m a man so I shouldn’t be so wishy-washy. I refuse to believe that the Fiendcelestial Cult has an infinite number of disciples.”

“If we wait, we’ll die. If we go out, we’ll die too. We might as well kill two of them.”

“You people are hiding in the array, you’re worse than a woman. I really despise you.”

Perhaps because of the magnificent scene, the second group of cultivators inside the array formation clenched their fists. Without hesitation, they charged straight out of the array formation and mocked the group of cultivators hiding behind.

In an instant, another figure walked out of the array formation.

Both parties were like meat grinders. With each strike, there would be casualties and both the Fiendcelestial Cult and cultivators of the national capital suffered extremely heavy losses.

It was a deadly battle.

It was a bloody battle too.

After stepping out of the array formation, he would either live or die.

Fortunately, the cultivators of the capital had one advantage, and that was the elite Ye Ping.

They made a great contribution.

Each elite had a different style, especially Ye Ping, who used the Expiation Heavenly River Swordsmanship to defeat them. Even the elites of the Fiendcelestial Cult were insignificant to them.

The Golden Light of Expiation was the nemesis of the cultivators of the Fiendcelestial Cult.

It was just like how paper was afraid of fire.

However, at this moment…

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Another ten mushroom clouds appeared in the sky.

That meant that the second teleportation had failed too.

“Activate again!”

Before the cultivators could sink into a state of despair, the powerhouse in the array formation said coldly.

Right now, they could not afford to waste a single second.

Both sides were racing against time.

Within four hours, the Fiendcelestial Cult could completely break into the capital of Wei Nation.

As long as someone escaped Wei Nation and went outside for help within those four hours, they would… have some chance of survival.

More than an hour had passed.

Hence, time was extremely tight.
