Chapter 689: The Zhuxian Sword Array Traps the Heavenly Court

This was the impact of a great force, the reason why emperors residing within their capitals receive the best protection. An emperor can always harness the power of their entire empire!

After being thrown a thousand miles away, Toad Lian\'s form came to a stop, and he spat a mouthful of blood. The violent shock had severely injured his internal organs, and blood flowed from his seven orifices.

Slowly transforming back into human form, Toad Lian flew back, but he appeared much more weakened.

"Too powerful. This was just the power borrowed from the people of the Lingxiao Heavenly Court. If he borrowed the entire power of Dazhi, I can\'t even imagine!" Toad Lian shuddered as he spoke to Raven Daojun.

"If that\'s the case, then Zhong Shan must not be left alive!" Raven Daojun\'s eyes flashed with a violent gleam.

"Borrow the entire power of Dazhi? Zhong Shan wouldn\'t dare. With the empire in turmoil, external threats to fend off, and internal affairs to manage, using the power of Dazhi now could very well ruin his empire," Nu Qinghui pondered aloud.

Raven Daojun looked up at the clouds, his gaze piercing through to the nineteen-clawed golden dragon above the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

A fierce gaze shot towards the golden dragon, and the dragon\'s eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Roar~~~!"

The golden dragon roared again.

In front of the Longevity Hall, Zhong Shan looked coldly into the distance and said in a deep voice, "Raven Daojun\'s gaze can penetrate Nangong Sheng\'s formation?"

Indeed, as Zhong Shan spoke, Raven Daojun\'s gaze pierced through the Nantian Gate, directly meeting Zhong Shan\'s in front of the Longevity Hall. A fierce gaze from Raven Daojun clashed with Zhong Shan\'s.

Raven Daojun was still the same as ever, but Zhong Shan was no longer the Zhong Shan of old. His cultivation had greatly improved, and with the support of Dazhi\'s power, he could calmly meet Raven Daojun\'s fierce gaze.

"Raven Daojun, do you think you can kill me with just a few of you?" Zhong Shan said arrogantly.

Though separated by tens of thousands of miles, Zhong Shan\'s voice strangely reached outside the Nantian Gate, directly into the ears of the seven Heavenly Extreme experts.

"Zhong Shan!" Raven Daojun said coldly.

"You couldn\'t keep me in the Frozen Dynasty. What can you do to me in my Dazhi\'s domain? Hahaha!" Zhong Shan laughed disdainfully.

The faces of the three green-robed elders of the Longevity Realm darkened, but Raven Daojun remained expressionless, displaying the composure befitting a leader of a sacred land.

"Among the world\'s heroes, you are the only one I misjudged. But now I see you clearly. Today, I will kill you!" Raven Daojun said coldly.

As Raven Daojun finished speaking, the three green-robed elders behind him seemed to receive an unspoken command and stepped back slightly.

"They\'re about to act?" Emperor Xuansha said coldly in front of the Longevity Hall.

At that moment, Raven Daojun made a gesture, and the mouth of the Zhuxian Gourd opened.

With his index and middle fingers together, he pointed towards the Nantian Gate and shouted, "Slash~~~!"

A command, and from the mouth of the Zhuxian Gourd, a white light shot out, transforming into a beam of light that flew straight towards the Longevity Hall.

The white light flashed by, too fast to see. It carved a spatial tear tens of thousands of miles long, and Nangong Sheng\'s formation couldn\'t stop it.

Zhong Shan\'s eyes narrowed as he watched the incoming attack.

"Everyone, stay calm!" Zhong Shan commanded.

The ministers and soldiers, already steeled by Zhong Shan\'s leadership, held their ground.

"Prepare the countermeasure!" Zhong Shan ordered.

Suddenly, a vast golden light erupted from the Longevity Hall, forming a barrier that absorbed the incoming attack\'s energy. The collision created shockwaves that trembled the air, but the barrier held firm.

"Raven Daojun, you underestimate Dazhi!" Zhong Shan\'s voice rang out powerfully.

With a gesture, the golden dragon of fortune roared once more, and its claws struck down, dispersing the remnants of the attack.

Raven Daojun\'s face darkened. "Form the Zhuxian Sword Array!"

Instantly, the three green-robed elders moved, positioning themselves around the Lingxiao Heavenly Court. Each drew out a sword imbued with immense spiritual power, and a massive sword formation began to take shape, aiming to trap the entire court.

"Emperor, the Zhuxian Sword Array!" Emperor Xuansha warned.

"Let them come," Zhong Shan said calmly, his eyes full of resolve. "We\'ll show them the true power of Dazhi."

As the sword array closed in, the Lingxiao Heavenly Court braced for the ultimate confrontation.

"Whoosh~~~!"

In an instant, the white light appeared in front of the Longevity Hall, aiming directly at Zhong Shan\'s forehead.

It was so fast that even Zhong Shan barely had time to react. His eyes narrowed, and he let out a cold snort.

"Hmph!"

Suddenly, countless strands of fortune surrounded Zhong Shan, and a powerful imperial aura surged to meet the white light, resisting its advance. Although it couldn\'t completely stop the white light, it did manage to slow it down slightly.

In that brief moment, Zhong Shan saw the object within the white light—it was a seven-inch sinister blade of light, complete with eyes and eyebrows, giving it a bizarrely lifelike appearance.

Just as the blade was about to reach Zhong Shan, a powerful golden shield formed around him, not made of magic but of the potent imperial aura of Dazhi, harnessing the power of the empire to defend against the attack.

"Clang~~~!"

The blade of light didn\'t strike the imperial shield but was instead caught between two white fingers.

Emperor Xuansha had suddenly appeared in front of Zhong Shan, his robes fluttering. With his right hand\'s index and middle fingers, he had caught the blade of light, although the impact forced him back slightly. Nonetheless, he had successfully intercepted the seemingly unstoppable attack.

Outside the Nantian Gate, Raven Daojun\'s pupils contracted in surprise as he looked at Emperor Xuansha.

"Return, my precious~~~!"

Raven Daojun commanded coldly, and the blade of light glowed brightly, breaking free from Emperor Xuansha\'s fingers and instantly shooting back into the Zhuxian Gourd.

Emperor Xuansha and Raven Daojun faced each other from a great distance, their eyes locked in a serious gaze.

Raven Daojun, still solemn, suddenly smiled coldly.

"Zhuxian~~~!"

A clear shout echoed from outside the eastern gate of the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

"Luxian~~~!"

Raven Daojun shouted.

"Xianxian~~~!"

A clear shout echoed from outside the western gate of the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

"Juexian~~~!"

A clear shout echoed from outside the northern gate of the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

The three green-robed elders who had been standing behind Raven Daojun suddenly disappeared. Apparently, as the Zhuxian Gourd released its blade, the three Heavenly Extreme experts had moved to their predetermined positions.

With the four clear shouts, a towering purple sword rose in the east, reaching from the earth to the heavens. It unleashed boundless purple sword energy, crashing into Nangong Sheng\'s cloud formation—the Zhuxian Sword!

In the west, a towering green sword rose, similar to the one in the east, releasing vast sword energy—the Xianxian Sword. In the north, a black sword rose, similar to the others, releasing fierce sword energy—the Juexian Sword.

In the south, a red sword also rose, but it appeared ghostly, as if a phantom—the Luxian Sword.

As the three supreme swords appeared, they tore through the space, shrouding the surroundings in blackness, isolating the inner and outer realms. The powerful sword energy fiercely attacked the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

A destructive aura pressed down, threatening to destroy everything within the encirclement of the four swords, causing everyone\'s hearts to tighten. It was as if a sharp sword hung over their heads, making it hard to breathe.

"The Zhuxian Sword Array?" Emperor Xuansha\'s eyes turned cold.

As the Zhuxian Sword Array took shape, Zhong Shan stood firm, observing the unfolding situation.

"Everyone, remain calm. This is a critical moment for Dazhi," Zhong Shan declared.

His ministers and soldiers, already resolute under his leadership, steadied themselves.

"Prepare our countermeasure," Zhong Shan ordered.

Immediately, a vast golden light emanated from the Longevity Hall, forming a protective barrier that absorbed and dissipated the fierce sword energies from the Zhuxian Sword Array.

Raven Daojun, observing from the distance, saw his attack being neutralized and sneered.

"Zhong Shan, you may have stopped this, but the Zhuxian Sword Array will not be so easily defeated. Prepare yourself for the true might of the Longevity Realm!" Raven Daojun shouted.

With the Zhuxian Sword Array now fully formed, the battle for the Lingxiao Heavenly Court had truly begun. The stakes were higher than ever, and Zhong Shan knew that only by harnessing the full power of Dazhi could they hope to withstand the impending assault.

"Imperial Radiance!" Zhong Shan shouted.

"Roar~~~!"

The nineteen-clawed golden dragon of fortune let out a tremendous roar, and golden light erupted from its body. The sea of fortune clouds shone brightly, drawing in the merit clouds, which emitted a yellow radiance. The combined light spread in all directions, enveloping the entire Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

Nangong Sheng\'s formation, which had been on the verge of collapse, was instantly reinforced by the endless golden and yellow light, stabilizing it. However, the formation still seemed to be shaking.

"Lu Jianping!" Zhong Shan called out.

"Present!" The official overseeing the construction of the Lingxiao Heavenly Court stepped forward.

"Draw on the power of the Nine Heavens Stars to stabilize the Lingxiao Heavenly Court!" Zhong Shan commanded.

"Yes!" Lu Jianping responded immediately.

The Lingxiao Heavenly Court was designed to draw on the power of countless stars, and it could naturally harness their energy.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Jianping activated a high platform, which shot out 108 beams of light in all directions, as if sending a signal to distant stars.

As the 108 beams of light shot out, the entire Lingxiao Heavenly Court trembled briefly, then steadied, ceasing its shaking.

"Boom~~~!"

In the higher sky, countless clouds scattered, revealing 108 stars in the sky that suddenly became extremely bright. They sent down beams of starlight directly into the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

For a moment, the entire Lingxiao Heavenly Court was bathed in starlight. A vast amount of spiritual energy converged from all directions, filling the citizens of Dazhi with boundless confidence. The immense power of the stars continuously tempered the Lingxiao Heavenly Court.

Nangong Sheng\'s formation was thoroughly stabilized. However, the clouds that had obscured the view were dispersed by the power of the stars, making the interior visible to the outside world.

The combined power of Dazhi\'s fortune and the star energy successfully held off the power of the Zhuxian Sword Array. Outside the formation, it was like the interior of a black hole, filled with a pulling force and the howling of endless sword energy.

Four Heavenly Extreme experts were hosting the Zhuxian Sword Array, demonstrating its formidable power.

In the south, Raven Daojun coldly observed the now-stable Lingxiao Heavenly Court, a flash of anger crossing his eyes.

"Raven Daojun, you can\'t do anything to me. Get lost!" Zhong Shan said coldly.

"Hahaha, can\'t do anything to you?" Raven Daojun laughed loudly, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.

"Do you have some other trick up your sleeve?" Zhong Shan asked sternly.

"To withstand an incomplete Zhuxian Sword Array, that\'s quite a feat. But what if your fortune decreases?" Raven Daojun sneered.

"Oh?" Zhong Shan\'s eyes narrowed.

"I said before that I came here today to take your head! Since you\'re so confident, let\'s see how things turn out!" Raven Daojun sneered.

"Hmph!" Zhong Shan snorted coldly.

Raven Daojun looked at Guishou, who nodded and shot a beam of seven-colored light towards the Zhuxian Sword Array.

At that moment, Nu Qinghui stared intently at the nineteen-clawed golden dragon of fortune, her eyes filled with a mix of complexity, determination, and coldness.
