Transcending the Nine Heavens

“Everyone, don’t panic! Follow my commands!”

Diwu Qingrou shouted loudly in the air, “Listen to my orders! Do not break formation! Maintain your positions as originally planned. Stay vigilant at the front and back. Within each squad, the strongest member should lead as the vanguard. Set up the formation! Resist the strong enemy! As long as we can hold on until Elder Xiao and the others return, victory will still be ours.”

In an instant, Amethyst shards scattered on the ground. Everyone present had cultivated for at least hundreds of years and understood the gravity of the situation. If they lost their composure, it would be tantamount to seeking death. The only option was to unite and resist the assault, striving for survival. They quickly calmed down, and a misty light circle rose, with an inexplicable surge of energy.

The large formation had taken shape in the blink of an eye.

Initially, the strategy was to have the Ye Family lead the formation. However, since Ye Xiaoyao and two other eighth grade peak supremes from the Ye Family had gone out to pursue treasure, it had to be changed to the current strongest enforcer leading.

Diwu Qingrou sighed internally: her previous statements were merely meant to stabilize people's hearts and prevent a complete collapse of the formation. In the face of such overwhelming power, who needed defense? There was no hope for even a lucky chance; what she did now was simply a precautionary setup of a one-character long snake formation—doing what she could.

Even though Diwu Qingrou was wise, she was not omniscient. If not for the unpredictability of the situation, who could have anticipated such a bizarre occurrence?

All the key figures had unexpectedly left?

Wasn’t this utterly ridiculous? What in the world was happening here?

Yet despite these thoughts, Diwu Qingrou was not one to resign easily; knowing it was a futile resistance, she still faced the current battle with all her might. Even if hope was minimal, she would exert ten thousand times the effort!

This battle was ultimately not just between the Li Family and the allied forces but between herself and Mo Tianji!

Diwu Qingrou would never give in easily.

Even if all the high-level supremes from the Li Family came in full force, if the remaining people could fully act according to her commands, they might still withstand the onslaught. Even if it just meant dragging it out, there might still be a chance to counterattack the enemy!

Meanwhile, Mo Tianji’s cold voice echoed from afar: “One person strikes at the head; four split left and right to strike at the abdomen; the rest, attack the tail! Strike quickly!”

The nine high-level supremes of the Li Family dispersed in the air with a whoosh.

Diwu Qingrou quickly adapted and ordered, “Middle section, bloom! Let the flowers bloom across the sky!”

With a thunderous sound, the army on the mountaintop simultaneously gathered their spirits, preparing to strike.

When the enemies in the middle fell, this force would meet them head-on for a powerful counterattack!

“Transform into a dragon, charge ahead!”

Mo Tianji shouted as well.

No matter what, they had to force these people down the mountain. Even if they seemed to have the upper hand now, it was absolutely impossible to annihilate them entirely; that was just wishful thinking.

The current strategic goal was to take advantage of the moment when the enemy's experts were sent out, to push the remaining individuals off the mountain and achieve the anticipated strategic target.

“Boom!”

Radiant light flashed, as the swords and sabers in the hands of Li Xiangsi and others transformed into sharp rays. Like a stunning rainbow, they shot out with chilling, terrifying killing intent.

In mid-air, they appeared like small suns, emitting the brightest light, slashing down towards the crowd below.

“Release!” Diwu Qingrou yelled!

Below, over three thousand long swords flew out simultaneously, intercepting the meteoric sabers and the terrifying destructive power above.
