Chapter 14
The sound of a loud horn echoed through the foot of the mountain, disciples of the bai n could be seen bustling around with their defense preparations. One would imagine at least some of them to be scared or shocked, especially with the massive two armies that came knocking on their door, yet all their eyes carried a simr hint of confidence, pride, and disdain even! And why would they not? Casting back their gaze at the peak of the mountain with eyes filled with respect along with worship, their steps firm and steady as various disciples carried out their assignments in an orderly fashion.
Back at the foot of the mountain, the patriarch of the Void sect along with Daoist Lin was hovering in the air on a purple cloud next to them was the Sword mount sect''s Patriarch and first elder, each standing on a sword that radiated an extreme dense sword aura.
"Sword devil, what do you think?" asked the Void''s sect patriarch as he looked at the giant formation surrounding the Bai n.
A frown soon found it''s way on the Sword patriarch''s old face, as he gently stroked his well-trimmed beard "It seems that the rumors were true, the Bai n did indeed have a miraculous formation..."
"Can you break it?" bluntly asked the Void sect''s head.
"Ha.Ha.Ha! break it? That''s impossible, this formation seems to be able to hold off a full-blown attack from ate-stage Ascension cultivator with ease! And if I dare say it might even still stand against a Half-immortal one!"
Hearing the Sword devil''s reply made the Void sect patriarch go quiet for a second as he waited for him to continue speaking.
"Breaking it is impossible as if we even manage to break a hole the formations would soon be able to regenerate and close it back. But it definitely is possible for us to open a hole through it, it will be small but that''s our best bet." replied the Sword devil with a fierce voice full of conviction, he may not have the power to break through the formation himself but with the help of their sect treasure the situation changes. He thought as he gently caressed the small seemingly ordinary sword on his hips.
A cold glint shed across the Void sect''s patriarch''s eyes as he coldly looked at the distant mountain peak in front of them. ''Immortal mentor, will he truly not take action?'' shaking his head, he took a deep breath to calm his mind pushing his thoughts to the back of his head before he looked back at the sword devil.
"So be it, we shall take over after you breakthrough."
"Haha, Old monster you better! I am risking my sect''s treasure, if you don''t keep your end of the promise well..." grinned the sword devil.
"Humph, I know!'' coldly replied the old monster.
Satisfied with his reply, the sword devil made his way closer to the formation behind him four elders stood on their swords respectively two to his right and two to his left. Seeing the scene that was about to ur, the old monster called about a transparent shield that covered both him and the thousands of disciples from the Void Sect.
The Sword mount sect was also already prepared as all disciples fell to the ground and huddled
together then each and every one of them unsheathed their swords then stabbed them on the ground causing another transparent shield to surround them.
The hundreds of minor sects that followed however did not know what was about to happen, some of the smarter ones moved their disciples even further back away before calling forth their defenses, others thought that they were already significantly far away from any bacsh.
Back on the Bai n''s mountain, all disciples had already finished their preparations and were in their positions. They watched as the Sword devil moved flew closer to the formation, behind him were four elders, he then brought out a seemingly ordinary sword from his waist and pointed it towards the sky the four elders behind him each unsheathed their own swords as well before they started chanting a strange incantation.
Soon streaks of dazzling white light escaped from the four elder''s swords making their way to the Sword devils seemingly ordinary one! The sword that looked to be nothing but a mortal weapon started to glow in a blinding golden light before it''s size grew from its initial one to cover the entire sky! The sword devil no longer held the sword as it was too big, his right hand was pointing at the sky along with the giant sword that seemed to be able to cut the sky open! Along with it, an extreme aura of blood-lust followed.
The various minor sects that followed were soon under its pressure, the ones smart enough to retreat even further and call out their defense formations were better off than the ones that decided not to move as countless disciples fainted with blood oozing from their pores! Thousands of disciples with lower cultivation that were closer to the pressure were crushed to paste by it causing those that retreated earlier to heave sighs of relief as they gazed at the giant sword that seemed as big as the mountain with fear and envy!
The four elders that seemed to channel their energy to feed the giant sword slowly grew thinner as the giant sword turned brighter and brighter, the sword devil that was controlling it had his forehead covered in sweat as he gritted his teeth before he moved his hand down ordering the sword to strike! A deafening sword cry echoed through the mountain, as the giant sword seemed to struggle in defiance before finally dropping down towards the Bai n''s formation!
BOOOOOOOM
As the two collided, an unprecedented explosion urred forcing the Void sect and Sword mount sect back a few steps, as for some of the unfortunate sects further behind some were unlucky enough to bepletely eradicated with disciples and elders turning into dust!
A giant dust cloud covered the Bai n''s mountain, hindering all those present from seeing whether the attack was sessful. As they all sat waiting for the dust to subdue an invisible type of pressure descended upon the Void and Sword mount sects.
