Chapter 77

"Boom!"

The gate to the alien world suddenly opened with a loud crash.

A figure clad in a green robe emerged, exuding an aura as deep as the ocean and oppressive beyond measure, sweeping in all directions.

All the alliance cultivators who sensed this aura turned pale.

"A fifth-rank true person!"

The aura emanating from the green-robed figure was terrifying, like a chasm separating it from the fourth-rank cultivators.

Without a doubt,

This person had crossed the threshold of the fifth rank.

"It seems the strength of this world cannot be underestimated!"

The green-robed cultivator surveyed the surroundings, noting that the hundreds of cultivators present all possessed Dragon Transformation-level cultivation, which caused his sword-like eyebrows to twitch slightly.

Previously, due to the opening of the interworld portal in the Ancient Wilderness, some of the aura from this world had leaked into the Uncelestial Realm.

Because of its thin spiritual energy, the green-robed cultivator had mistakenly assumed this world was weak.

Yet unexpectedly,

The foundation of the Qingyang Realm surprised him.

At the same moment,

An invisible force quietly descended, abruptly reducing his aura by a level.

Regarding this,

The green-robed cultivator furrowed his brows again and muttered, "Heavenly Dao suppression, this world indeed is extraordinary!"

Every world has a Heavenly Dao that governs it, but only certain worlds have a strong enough Heavenly Dao to suppress even Dragon Transformation or Refining Marrow-level cultivators.

However, for those who had stepped into the level of true persons, the Heavenly Dao suppression was almost negligible.

At this moment, the Heavenly Dao suppression in the Qingyang Realm had reduced the cultivation of this mid-stage true person to the early-stage true person level, demonstrating the formidable nature of the Heavenly Dao suppression in this realm.

Despite this,

The green-robed cultivator did not overly mind the Heavenly Dao suppression.

Even though this world was stronger than other alien worlds, it had not yet produced any true persons, with the highest beings still at the Dragon Transformation level.

No matter how strong Dragon Transformation cultivators were, they were nothing but clouds before a fifth-rank true person.

In an instant,

The green-robed cultivator struck out with his palm, causing the heavens and earth to tremble. The vast and boundless power shattered space, and Lin Lin, who was battling a fourth-rank cultivator, turned pale.

"Damn it!"

Lin Lin had no time to think, seeing the palm strike tearing through the air towards him. He hurriedly activated his magical treasure, spraying a mouthful of essence blood into it.

As the essence blood fused with the treasure, its power soared to the extreme.

A sword qi that pierced the heavens and earth cut through space, with surrounding spiritual energy frantically gathering, the sword light flashing like thunder, vaguely carrying a hint of Heavenly Dao's will.

"Boom—"

The two forces clashed, the sword qi dissipating in an instant. In the face of the resulting shockwaves, Lin Lin hastily formed a spell seal, surrounding himself with a spiritual shield, barely blocking the blow.

However, despite this, Lin Lin still fell from the sky, his aura significantly weakened.

"A different cultivation system, interesting!"

The green-robed cultivator looked at Lin Lin, who had forcefully taken his palm strike without being seriously injured, with a peculiar expression in his eyes.

With his fifth-rank true person's vision, he naturally saw that Lin Lin's cultivation system was entirely different from that of the Uncelestial Realm.

Typically,

Different worlds have different cultivation systems, which is normal.

However, the Qingyang Realm had cultivators practicing both the Uncelestial Realm system and other systems, indicating the richness of its ancient heritage.

Thinking of this,

The green-robed cultivator felt a ripple in his heart.

A world capable of accommodating multiple cultivation systems must have a deep foundation.

Even if this realm was currently in decline, if he could bring it under control, its benefits would far surpass those of weaker worlds.

"Damn it..."

Lin Lin struggled to suppress the churning blood in his body, glaring at the green-robed cultivator in mid-air with anger.

Although he could not understand the words, the overwhelming strength of the green-robed cultivator made Lin Lin feel an unprecedented sense of life-and-death crisis.

The power of a fifth-rank true person far exceeded his previous imagination.

Just as the green-robed cultivator was about to strike again to completely suppress Lin Lin,

Suddenly, a brilliant light soared into the sky from ahead, and an ancient tree appeared out of thin air, its vast aura spreading like a tidal wave.

The sudden appearance caused both sides of the cultivators to change their expressions.

The difference was,

The Qingyang Realm cultivators were overjoyed, while the Uncelestial Realm cultivators were shocked.

"A powerhouse from the Ten Thousand Heavenly Courts has appeared!"

"The Qingyang Celestial Tree has sent an emissary; everyone, let's eliminate these alien invaders together!"

"Kill!"

Several fourth-rank cultivators shouted loudly, and the alliance cultivators' morale soared.

In their hearts, the Ten Thousand Heavenly Courts were their faith, the most sacred place.

Although the ancient tree that appeared was not the Qingyang Celestial Tree itself,

It came from the Ten Thousand Heavenly Courts, meaning the courts would not sit idly by.

As a result,

The alliance cultivators' morale grew even higher.

In contrast,

The Uncelestial Realm cultivators looked grim.

"Dragon Transformation at its peak!"

The green-robed cultivator's expression turned serious, his gaze coldly locking onto the ancient tree.

Though he could not identify the tree, the aura it exuded clearly indicated it was at the peak of Dragon Transformation.

Moreover,

It was even stronger than an average peak Dragon Transformation cultivator.

In terms of levels, it was approximately equivalent to a half-step true person.

After the initial shock, the green-robed cultivator sneered, "So what if it's a half-step true person? Even with Heavenly Dao suppression, dealing with a mere half-step true person is a piece of cake for me.

A fifth-rank true person is a fifth-rank true person. Those who haven't truly reached this realm can't compare, even if they're only half a step away..."

However,

Before he could finish speaking, more ancient trees suddenly appeared.

One tree!

Two trees!

Three trees!

Four trees!

Five trees!

...

In just a few moments, along with the previous tree, a total of five ancient trees appeared, each exuding an aura equivalent to a half-step fifth rank, or half-step true person.

At this moment,

The green-robed cultivator's expression turned dark.

If he were at his peak, he wouldn't fear mere half-step true persons.

But with his cultivation reduced by one level, while he was confident in handling one or two half-step true persons, he had no confidence in facing five at once.

"Boom!"

Before the green-robed cultivator could think further, the ancient tree launched its attack.

Roots as thick as pythons shattered space, rushing forward with terrifying power.

As the ancient tree moved, other ancient trees followed suit.

Five beings with strength equivalent to half-step fifth rank attacked together.

The immense pressure made the green-robed cultivator's heart tense, his blood boiling like a river, the terrifying power of his blood energy breaking space.

"Boom!"

The green-robed cultivator stepped into the air, punching through roots, but more roots pierced through the blood mist, forcing him to dodge.

However,

As the green-robed cultivator moved, other roots blocked his retreat.

Several roots smashed into his back, causing his blood to surge, his clothes to tear, and his flesh to become a bloody mess.
