Chapter 674: Shattering the Treasure to Escape (2)
Editor: Atlas Studios
All the defensive artifacts that participated were damaged.
Hundreds of overlapping domains were also shattered by the huge energy immediately.
If not for the fact that the three divine pillars had risked being heavily injured to protect them with their divine arts, after this, the Earth Immortal realm would probably disappear from the cultivation world of the Eastern Region.
Despite protection, they still scattered and fell to the ground, creating pits. They were covered in dust and looked extremely miserable.
Under the envelopment of the Back Yin Mountain’s Inverted Domain, they could not even stand up for a time.
The remaining blood accumulated in their throats. Every time they wanted to spit it out, it would be pressed back down. The heavily injured among them almost choked to death.
If Fengdu City wanted to attack them at this moment, other than the three divine pillars, none of these guys would be able to escape.
It was not until the Nine Nether clones released the Inverted Domain with the roots underground to offset the influence that they stumbled and stood up.
All of them had huge wounds on their bodies. Some had lost arms, and some had broken legs.
Blood flowed out of the wounds on their bodies like a fountain.
In the future, it would not be strange for the Divine Judgment Hall to be called the Disabled Association.
For top cultivators like them, injuries could be treated.
However, the most important thing was the dead. This Heaven-rank artifact self-destructed and killed 69 precious Earth Immortal experts.
Coupled with the previous dozen, it went straight to the hundred.
Who knew how many years it would take to recover?
The power of a Heaven-rank artifact’s self-destruction was indeed abnormally terrifying.
This was under the circumstances that Jiang Li had absorbed a large amount of spiritual qi in time and the Back Yin Mountain had suppressed the power of the City God’s Hall.
Otherwise, even with the protection of the three divine pillars, suicide would be difficult.
Jiang Li, who was the first to bear the brunt, naturally suffered the greatest damage.
According to Qin Shuman, she had found the Fengdu City Lord on a mountain 300 miles away from the center of the explosion.
The City Lord’s body was deeply embedded in the mountain. After pulling him out, the mountain was about to collapse.
However, Jiang Li, who had come out again, no longer had any obvious injuries.
The lost skin, facial features, and even long black hair had completely grown back.
He stayed in the mountain for a period of time mainly because he was studying the huge spiritual qi that had appeared in his body.
He had not absorbed everything just now, but the total amount of spiritual qi he had obtained was already extremely large. It was currently in his body, and it was unknown what it would slowly evolve into in the end. In short, it would not be a bad thing.
He temporarily put these things aside.
Jiang Li waved his hand, and the Nine Nether roots broke out of the ground. They gently wrapped around the hundreds of injured people meditating on the ground and slowly poured spiritual qi and vitality into their bodies.
The forte of the Spiritual Root of Heaven and Earth was in this aspect. Just some vitality was already comparable to the effect of an Earth-rank medicinal pill, pulling a group of heavily injured experts back from the edge of death.
More than 40% of them suffered injuries that were not inferior to Guhei Tianchou’s, or even worse.
All of them should immediately find a place to enter seclusion for a hundred years or even hundreds of years to recover from their injuries.
However, at this moment, they did not have the time.
Now, it was the moment of life and death for the cultivation world of the Eastern Region.
They had tried their best to escape from the sky-high price of the artifact in order to support the Pure White Pagoda as quickly as possible.
After barely slowing down, three doors opened in the air.
The three doors were of different colors, but the location they led to was the same. After being attacked, the current situation was unknown.
“Fengdu City Lord, thank you very much for your help this time. If you need anything in the future, the Cloud Manor and the Divine Judgment Hall will definitely not decline!”
Apart from a portion of the cultivators who were too injured and had completely lost their ability to fight, everyone else entered in a single file.
If they were a step late, the situation in the entire Eastern Region would change.
Through these three doors, they could directly return to the Pure White Tower.
However, they were too embarrassed to ask Jiang Li to go with them. After all, strictly speaking, the Netherworld was not in the cultivation world of the Eastern Region.
On Jiang Li’s side, he had the intention to help.
However, he indeed had something important to do and could not rush over to help.
He could only settle the matter here first.
“See you again. This ghost head token can directly open the Gate of Hell to Fengdu City. Concubine Yun, please keep it well.”
“If anything goes wrong… Fengdu City welcomes everyone at any time.”
He left his words ambiguous.
In short, this was also a way out.
As long as he moved Fengdu City to the Back Yin Mountain, he could guarantee that even the headquarters of the three divine pillars would not be as safe as his city.
Concubine Yun put away the ghost head token and gave him two more thousand-year Cloud Shell Beads.
Of these two beads, one was for him, and the other was naturally for Shenshan Qiuhua.
Compared to ordinary Cloud Shell Beads, these two could summon the cloud staircase many times.
They could even enter the Cloud Mist Valley without the master’s approval.
In order to thank the successor of the Human Emperor for his help twice, this could be said to be very sincere. For thousands of years, no one had ever had such an honor.
After exchanging two tokens, the Cloud Manor and Fengdu City could visit freely in the future and their relationship would improve further.
On the Divine Judgment Hall’s side, all the experts who could still move disappeared into the three doors.
The remaining ones planned to enter seclusion on the spot and make plans after their injuries stabilized.
After the two Nine Nether Wood created a tree house for them, they began to collect the shattered fragments of the Heaven-rank artifact under Jiang Li’s orders.
As for the Fengdu City Lord, he headed in the direction where the two pieces of Netherworld were about to collide.
After this period of hard work, the two Netherworld fragments finally arrived at a very close location.
Now, any corner within a thousand miles of the two cliffs was extremely dangerous.
One had to know that kinetic energy multiplied mass and speed.
Regardless of the limit of speed or mass, the power formed would be extremely terrifying.
Just now, all the backup cultivators of the Divine Judgment Hall had attacked together, causing their speed to be several times faster than before. They had already reached the flying speed of a Void Core cultivator.
In the eyes of the experts, this was not fast.
However, with the huge size of the two Netherworld fragments,
even if they collided at the speed of a snail, the energy released in the end was enough to collapse the world and directly create mountains and deep valleys.
Moreover, at this speed, looking at the huge land that was approaching, it gave people huge pressure.
Hundreds of millions of cultivators had already quickly retreated under the lead of Soul Formation cultivators.
Some directly entered Fengdu City, hoping to obtain protection.
A collision of this scale could not allow any lucky ones to survive.
With their strength, they did not even have the chance to watch the show.
“Hall Masters, please take care of Fengdu City.”
Jiang Li and his two Hall Masters returned to Fengdu City through the Gate of Hell.
As the two pieces of the Netherworld approached, the space distorted greatly. This Gate of Hell was not very useful for the time being.
After getting the two Hall Masters to cooperate with Granny Earth Spirit to move and protect the city, Jiang Li grabbed the Dragon Imprisoning Lock again on the edge of the cliff.
This chain had already left the City Lord’s stone monument.
Fengdu City, along with the surrounding spider lilies and carefree grass, quickly moved away.
Now, without the guidance of the Divine Judgment Hall, the speed at which the two Netherworld fragments approached did not decrease but increased.
In next to no time, only Jiang Li was left on the edge of the cliff, and he was still pulling the chain.
There were still 50 kilometers left… 80 kilometers, 50 kilometers, 30 kilometers, 5 kilometers!
The air between the two continents was squeezed out in two directions.
Three breaths before the collision, Jiang Li floated into the air.
Then, blinding light and scorching heat appeared in front of him.
Space was torn into pieces like a newspaper being torn by a paper shredder.
The originally flat Netherworld ground wrinkled and bulged. In the blink of an eye, thousands of mountains appeared.
Countless huge rocks streaked across the pitch-black night sky like asteroids.
However, asteroids fell from the sky, while these rocks rose from the ground.
