Destined Antagonist: I Refuse To Annul The Engagement!

"Agreed!"

Fierce voices echoed one after another.

In the ancient city, one after another members of the Jiang family rushed out, besieging the geniuses of the Great Luo Holy Land.

There were thousands of people in the Qi Ling Realm, each of them wearing armor and helmets, moving in unison and with order, like a well-trained army, exuding a chilling aura that filled the heavens and earth.

The sky above the ancient city seemed to have turned black.

Xiao Tianyi and nearly a hundred other geniuses hadn't figured out the situation yet when they realized they were already being surrounded. Their faces immediately changed, and panic filled their hearts.

There were too many Qi Ling experts, over a thousand of them!

Even though each of them was a genius with extraordinary strength surpassing the same realm, they couldn't withstand the attack of an army.

Moreover, they could clearly sense that these Qi Ling experts had profound backgrounds and extraordinary strength.

Furthermore... there were several Profound Earth experts approaching from a distance, heading towards them.

Once they were trapped, the outcome was predictable.

Moreover... it was extremely strange how they were inexplicably teleported to the native's territory.

"Protect each other and retreat! Get out of the city!" Xiao Tianyi shouted angrily.

He immediately summoned his own sword, a simple long sword engraved with mysterious patterns, exuding an unparalleled aura, like a sword of an immortal.

At the same time, Xiao Tianyi activated his own physique, the Immortal Body, and a brilliant immortal light burst out from his body, ethereal and vast, extremely extraordinary.

The immortal essence within his body surged out, empowering his sword.

Buzz...

The sky, tainted black by the killing intent, suddenly brightened as if it were daytime.

A vast sword energy appeared between heaven and earth.

It gave people a shocking feeling of an immortal holding a sword, slashing through the heavens.

The surrounding army stopped in their tracks, gazing at this sword with astonishment and deep fear. This sword was too terrifying, something that they, Qi Ling experts, couldn't handle.

"Slash!"

Xiao Tianyi coldly shouted, manipulating his thoughts as the immense sword energy slowly descended.

This supreme sword energy alone, with its aura, already crushed the rules of heaven and earth, even shattering the void like a mirror, revealing a profound dark chaos.

Xiao Tianyi was well aware that only by intimidating everyone as quickly as possible could the geniuses of the Great Luo Holy Land withdraw from the ancient city to the greatest extent.

Otherwise... once they were restrained by the army, even he couldn't guarantee his own safety.

Therefore, he directly used his most powerful move at the moment, even using the life-saving item given to him by the Holy Lord: a strand of sword energy from the Great Luo Immortal Sword!

With the Immortal Body and the innate affinity to the laws of heaven and earth, he was not weaker than the Sacred Body to some extent!

This sword, powered by the Immortal Body, enhanced the power of the Great Luo Immortal Sword's sword energy, its might was earth-shattering, even a Heavenly Origin Realm expert would have some confidence in shaking it.

Jiang Chen focused his gaze, his expression serious, and murmured in surprise, "Are the geniuses from the outside world all this powerful?"

To be honest, even though he had reached the Profound Earth Second Stage, he still didn't have the confidence to withstand this sword.

And the opponent's cultivation aura clearly indicated that he had just entered the Profound Earth Realm not long ago.

It should be noted that unlike the Qi Ling Realm, where geniuses could fight across realms, it became much more difficult to fight across realms after entering the Profound Earth Realm. This was because the Profound Earth Realm began to absorb the Qi of the Earth's veins and bear the power of the earth, resulting in a huge gap in cultivation realms. Even a difference of one realm could be like the difference between heaven and earth.

This was also the reason why Jiang Chen, at the Profound Earth Second Stage, had absolute confidence in winning against other geniuses from the three veins.

However, the outsider in front of him seemed to have broken this iron rule.

"There are more than just billions of living beings in the Celestial Wonders Realm. There are countless ancient traditions with profound backgrounds. It's normal for such geniuses to appear. But, such geniuses are still very rare," said Lord Jiang Ming with no change in his expression. He patted Jiang Chen's shoulder and comforted him, "You don't need to underestimate yourself. This is just his life-saving move, and he probably can only use it once."

"Moreover... you are much younger than him!"

Jiang Ming, who was comforting him, had already stepped out into the air, moving like shrinking into an inch, appearing in front of the army. He faced the immense sword energy unleashed by Xiao Tianyi without much movement, just opening his hands and slowly lifting them.

Boom...

The first ancient city, spanning thousands of feet, suddenly changed. A vast and heavy aura surged like a raging tide.

The vast land is violently surging, and the majestic Qi of the earth gushes out.

The powerful force of the earth is bestowed upon Lord Jiang Mingcheng, solidifying into a towering divine mountain.

"Suppress!"

Lord Jiang Mingcheng said calmly.

The towering divine mountain slowly toppled, pressing down on the immense sword energy.

Buzz...

Although the immense sword energy was supported by the power of the Daluo Immortal Sword, it still struggled to withstand the suppression of the earth's force due to the absolute difference in strength.

The vast immortal aura collapsed, and cracks appeared in the sword energy, showing signs of shattering.

Xiao Tianyi, who controlled the sword energy, was also overwhelmed by the force of the earth, his body sinking. He immediately felt the opponent's terror, and his face darkened.

Profound Earth Peak!

The difference in cultivation level is too great!

Even though he had a deep foundation and a powerful inheritance, he still couldn't bridge the insurmountable gap in cultivation.

"What the hell is this place!?"

Xiao Tianyi couldn't help but curse in his heart, "Why are there so many powerful natives here?"

Soon, with a loud bang, the immense sword energy completely shattered, and Xiao Tianyi also suffered a backlash. Blood stained the corners of his mouth, and his aura became turbulent and chaotic.

Lord Jiang Mingcheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Xiao Tianyi calmly. He chose not to continue attacking because the trial of the Human Monument was about to begin, and he had to keep himself in peak condition to prevent the other three lords from having any unwarranted thoughts.

After all... this person's background must be a monstrous figure from a powerful sect in the Celestial Wonders Realm, or even a Saint Child, and he definitely had many means of self-preservation.

He might not pose a threat to him, but it was still very likely that he would be injured if caught off guard.

Immediately, Lord Jiang Mingcheng waved his hand and indifferently ordered the army, "Leave them."

"Yes!"

The army, composed of nearly a thousand Spirit Transformation Realm powerhouses, shouted in a deep voice and quickly advanced towards Xiao Tianyi and the others.

The geniuses of the Daluo Sacred Ground's faces immediately changed. Even the Saint Child was not a match for the opponent. How could they... break through?

"Saint Child, what should we do now?"

A Profound Earth Realm genius asked in a low voice beside Xiao Tianyi.

Xiao Tianyi glanced at him, his face dark. Who should I ask if not you?

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Tianyi coldly shouted, "Fight to the death, break through!"

"Profound Earth Realm experts, stay with me as the rearguard!"

"Yes!" everyone responded.

The great battle began.

Dazzling divine abilities and profound arcane arts, mysterious rules of the great Dao, splendidly displayed in the world.

The fierce aura of killing surged like dark clouds pressing down on the sky.

Blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the ground of the ancient city red.

For a while, the entire ancient city turned into a small battlefield.

The army composed of nearly a thousand Spirit Transformation Realm experts joined forces to besiege the geniuses, using strict formations to take the lives of one Daluo Sacred Ground genius after another.

Profound Earth Realm powerhouses fought against Xiao Tianyi and the other Profound Earth geniuses.

The battle seemed to be overwhelmingly one-sided.

However, Xiao Tianyi and the others fought and retreated, using their lives to buy time. Gradually, they retreated to the gate of the First Ancient City.

"Hold on!"

Xiao Tianyi, covered in blood, roared in a low voice, "We will definitely break through!"

"Yes!"

The geniuses fought and died, becoming more ferocious and ruthless...

Meanwhile, Xiao Tianyi and the others, who were retreating, were unaware that a group of geniuses had set up an ambush in a desolate mountain ten miles away from the First Ancient City. They coldly watched their approach, waiting for them.

The leader of this group of geniuses was graceful and beautiful, with a pair of crystal-clear eyes radiating a cold blue light.

Surprisingly... it was Desolate Heaven Goddess Luo Xinglan!
