Chapter 2656 Let's begin in the Azure Heaven Immortal Kingdom
The massive flying warship hovered in the air, with all two thousand-plus cultivators of the Battle Sect standing in front of it, while Sun Yi and Xiao Qi stood at the very front of the group.
Behind them were more than a hundred cultivators who had just advanced to the Void Refinement stage, with the remaining half-step Void Refinement stage cultivators at the very back.
At this moment, the auras of the more than one hundred cultivators who had just advanced to the Void Refinement stage were very weak, and they were clearly injured.
Yet this very team showed no sign of panic when facing Ning Wang's fleet, remaining calm and composed.
"What's wrong with this group of people? They don't seem scared at all!" Zuo Chen frowned.
"Could they have something to rely on?" Gu Jian's expression also became more serious; this was a bit too unusual.
Prince Ning's expression suddenly became much more solemn. His vast divine sense swept over the group in front of him, carefully examining Sun Yi and his companions.
Zuo Chen and Gu Jian also used their divine sense to conduct a detailed investigation, but they did not discover any hidden experts.
As the distance between the two sides closed, Sun Yi and his group were able to see the situation of the opposing fleet clearly, especially the cultivators who were nailed to the execution pillars and struggling in pain, which was a shocking sight.
"Who are these people nailed to the pillars?" Su Motang frowned.
"How tragic!" Zhang Ye couldn't help but exclaim.
"Could it be a hostile force of the Azure Sky Immortal Kingdom?" Zhang Bairen asked, frowning.
"Do you think it might be an ascended cultivator?" Luo Xian suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned slightly, and a fierce glint flashed in Sun Yi's eyes. When the opposing fleet was only ten thousand miles away from them, Sun Yi suddenly took a step forward and asked loudly, "Are the people on the other side cultivators from the Azure Sky Immortal Kingdom?"
Prince Ning stared at Sun Yi. Although he didn't take a mere Void Refinement cultivator seriously, he still spoke calmly: "That's right, I am Prince Ning of the Azure Heaven Immortal Kingdom. Have you just come up from the lower realm?"
"Yes." Sun Yi did not deny it. His voice carried far and wide, and even the cultivators nailed to the execution pillars heard it.
One of the late-stage Void Refinement cultivators, whose body had been pierced, suddenly roared despite the excruciating pain: "Run! They won't let you go!"
"These damned native humans won't let any ascended cultivator go! Run!" another late-stage Void Refinement cultivator roared with all his might.
However, Prince Ning waved his right hand, and a golden-red light shot into the sky, enveloping a golden-red protective magical artifact.
The magical artifact flew into the air and suddenly emitted a dazzling golden-red light. Then it suddenly expanded and transformed into a huge golden-red dome that enveloped an area of 100,000 miles in radius.
In an instant, this world seemed to be trapped in a birdcage, and a terrifying aura emanated from this magical artifact.
"I am here today, and none of you will escape. All ascended cultivators deserve to die!" Prince Ning looked at Sun Yi and the others opposite him with an air of dominance.
This Golden Flame Shield is of Rank 7, Grade 5 quality, possessing extremely powerful laws of metal, fire, and space, making it a powerful tool for trapping enemies.
Once enveloped by the Golden Flame Shield, even a seventh-tier, ninth-grade spiritual weapon cannot break through it in a short time, and it can also imprison some spatial techniques.
Prince Ning thought that by using the Golden Flame Shield to seal off this area, he would cause panic among the other party. However, Sun Yi and the others simply glanced at the seventh-grade, fifth-rank spiritual artifact without showing any panic.
"The materials are quite good, but the refining technique is terrible." Zhang Ye was not afraid at all, and even carefully examined the Golden Flame Shield.
The Fire Spirit beside him nodded seriously: "What a waste of such good materials. If we were to refine them, we could definitely make a seventh-grade, ninth-rank spiritual weapon."
"It seems the weapon-refining techniques in the Spirit Realm aren't very good." Gu Qingcheng looked at the seventh-grade, fifth-rank spiritual weapon with disdain.
Those ascended cultivators nailed to the execution pillars saw that this entire world was shrouded within them, and all that remained in their hearts was a sigh.
"It's over...they're finished too..."
"Alas, is there really no hope for us ascending cultivators?"
"We're all human, so why did things turn out like this?"
"It's all those damned local cultivators' fault!"
……
Sun Yi looked at Prince Ning and asked in a deep voice, "Are all these people nailed to the pillars ascended humans?"
“That’s right, they are all ascended humans, and also descendants of ascended humans. Don’t worry, you will soon be able to keep them company,” Prince Ning said proudly.
Upon hearing this, Sun Yi's gaze turned cold, and he exuded a strong killing intent. At the same time, the gazes of the people behind Sun Yi also grew colder, and they too exuded a strong killing intent.
Sun Yi slowly summoned his spiritual artifact and said in a deep voice, "Before coming to the Spirit Realm, I naively thought that since we are both human, we could discuss and solve problems together, but now it seems that I was too naive."
"Only killing can solve the problem. Heavenly Court, the Nine True Spirit Families, the Four Immortal Kingdoms, the Five Immortal Palaces, and the Seven Sects—let's start with the Azure Heaven Immortal Kingdom today."
"Let me show you how sharp my sword, as an ascended cultivator, is."
As Sun Yi spoke, one magical artifact after another was summoned: a seventh-tier, ninth-grade battle armor, a seventh-tier, ninth-grade Five Elements Spiritual Sword, and a seventh-tier, ninth-grade Five Elements Ring.
Xiao Qi, standing beside him, also summoned a Tier 7, Rank 9 battle armor, a Tier 7, Rank 9 Dragon God Hammer, and a Tier 7, Rank 9 Five Elements Ring. He didn't take out the Heavenly Dragon Megaphone, but he did take out the Ice Profound Dragon Pearl.
The other warrior cultivators behind Sun Yi also summoned their spiritual weapons. Apart from the Buddhist cultivators, they were all wearing uniform battle armor, five-element spiritual swords, and five-element rings, and all of them were sixth-order spiritual weapons.
Meanwhile, Buddhist cultivators represented by Kongming and Bazhang summoned their own Buddhist artifacts. They were not wearing the usual robes of Buddhist cultivators, but rather uniform Buddhist armor, along with other uniform Buddhist artifacts.
In an instant, multicolored light illuminated all directions, and the light from the magical artifacts summoned by Sun Yi and his companions was so bright that it almost blinded the cultivators on the other side.
Even the well-informed Prince Ning, Zuo Chen, and Gu Jian, all three Nascent Soul stage cultivators, were stunned by the scene before them.
This is a seventh-tier, ninth-grade spiritual weapon. Even a cultivator of Prince Ning's status doesn't possess spiritual weapons of this rank, yet the two early-stage Void Refinement cultivators opposite them have dozens of them.
The entire fleet of cultivators, whether they were from the Azure Sky Immortal Kingdom or those nailed to the execution pillar, were shocked.
The next moment, Prince Ning stood up excitedly and burst into laughter: "Hahaha, what a pleasant surprise! What a pleasant surprise! So many seventh-grade ninth-rank spiritual artifacts, Heaven has truly been kind to me!"
Before his laughter had completely subsided, the cultivators from the opposing Battle Sect had vanished from their spot and reappeared in the fleet.
