Chapter 218: The Reversal of Polarities

Heavenly Wall Divine Kingdom

Formation Spirit

Li Yuncheng suddenly made a move, but Lin Batian was prepared. A shield dropped down, blocking the light swords, and then crazily absorbed the starlight.

Li Yuncheng’s expression changed, and just as he was about to act again, his figure suddenly flickered. A flying sword swept across the spot where he had just been. Li Yuncheng turned around, only to see Zhou Huaiying looking coldly at him.

"When did you join forces with Lin Batian?"

"Guess."

"You’re asking for death."

"I told you long ago that we only wanted to leave, but you only wanted to kill us and gain more power. If I don’t kill you, how can I accept it?"

Zhou Huaiying sneered, he didn’t have a big ambition, he just wanted to leave. But this old thing has kept him trapped for so many years, how can he not hate it?

"Taoist Friend Zhou, it’s your turn now. I will distract him."

Lin Batian absorbed most of the starlight and said to Zhou Huaiying, who quickly disappeared to steal those starlights.

"Lin Batian, how dare you deceive me?"

"Don’t say that, aren’t we always deceiving each other?"

"Are you still my opponent now?"

"Try and see."

Lin Batian laughed loudly, then his aura shook, showing no signs of the weakness from the previous injury, which greatly shocked Li Yuncheng.

"How did you do it?"

"You can’t imagine the world of rich people, how do you know that I wasted my storage bag just like Chen Zheng?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

Li Yuncheng didn’t believe it. Lin Batian and Chen Zheng have battled countless times, and in recent years, they have encountered several dangers due to insufficient spiritual power. Li Yuncheng witnessed this with his own eyes.

"I was acting and fooling you. Haha, you fell for it, you foolish person!"

"Even if you recover to your full strength, are you my equal opponent?"

"Why don’t you give it a try? How will you know if you don’t try?"

"Then let’s give it a try."

Li Yuncheng coldly laughed, and then used the same methods he used to deal with Chen Zheng on Lin Batian. At that time, Chen Zheng could still continue fighting, but Lin Batian was almost overwhelmed.

"Friend Zhou from the Taoist tradition, help me!"

Lin Batian didn’t care about his ego at all, immediately shouting for help.

Zhou Huaiying ignored him, but other members of the Immortal Alliance who could change souls stepped in to help Lin Batian.

"Act quickly!"

Meanwhile, on Yuquan Mountain, Lin Jiang received messages from both Zhou Huaiying and Lin Batian at the same time.

By now, Lin Jiang had taken control of the entire Yuquan Mountain. Although there were only a few people from the Immortal Alliance, having Lin Jiang there made a difference. In addition to taking the pills given by Zhou Huaiying, Lin Jiang also activated the Spirit Gathering Stone.

"Gather, disciples of the Immortal Alliance!"

Lin Jiang shouted loudly. During the previous fight between Lin Batian and Chen Zheng, they didn’t get hurt because the formation on Yuquan Mountain protected them. This formation was originally meant to protect the descendants of the Li family.

Over ten cultivators gathered around Lin Jiang. He took out a pile of maps and handed them to the cultivators, saying, "According to what the maps say, find the nodes of spiritual energy on Yuquan Mountain, and quickly connect them."

"Yes, Senior Xiao."

The crowd quickly moved, and Lin Jiang also threw one Sound Passing Talisman after another, passing them to Taoist friends of the Immortal Alliance in various spiritual mountains. There are a hundred and eight spiritual mountains, they don’t know how many they have controlled, but around twenty or thirty should be no problem.

"You thief, how dare you."

Li Yuncheng quickly noticed the actions of Lin Jiang and the others, instantly filled with fear. He immediately gathered his power and unleashed a large number of fireballs, lightning bolts, arrows, and other attacks, trying to annihilate Lin Jiang and the others.

"I will protect you, continue."

Yi Zhibai appeared, standing in front of the crowd, providing cover for Lin Jiang and the others.

"Boom!"

Lin Jiang personally took action, fiercely attacking a node, forcefully penetrating into the heart of the mountain range.

"Infuse, contaminate the spiritual veins, quickly."

Lin Jiang took out a magical instrument and aimed it at the blasting opening, causing a surge of black liquid to gush out.

This is something that the Immortal Alliance uses to contaminate the spiritual veins. It is made from the blood of ordinary people and animals, mixed with feces and a dozen other materials, and refined with resentment collected from the battlefield. The process is complex and cumbersome. Lin Jiang doesn’t know how to refine it, but it sure does smell bad.

"Descendants of the Li family, eliminate the traitors."

Upon receiving Li Yuncheng’s message, the cultivator from Jingdu City’s Li family bypassed the imperial authority and issued orders to the Martial Arts Master of the Divine Kingdom.

Numerous Martial Arts Masters flew out, heading towards Yuquan Mountain. In addition, the princes stationed in various areas and the large army sent by the imperial court also received Li Yuncheng’s command. In the name of the emperor, Li Yuncheng ordered them to attack the Immortal Alliance and the rebels.

In just an instant, the entire Divine Kingdom fell into chaos once again. Countless people had already died, but the bloodshed continued.

"Senior Xiao, please save me!"

When the Martial Arts Masters arrived, the members of the Immortal Alliance were barely holding on. The pills and spiritual mountain that Zhou Huaiying provided were scarce, and most people had only restored one or two percent of their spiritual power. It was easy for them to deplete their energy with just a few moves. At this time, the Formation Spirits, collaborating with those Martial Arts Masters, immediately put tremendous pressure on the members of the Immortal Alliance.

Lin Jiang’s situation was slightly better because he still had the Spirit Gathering Stone on him, which provided him with a continuous supply of spiritual power. Otherwise, he would have run out of energy long ago.

Lin Jiang once again found himself caught up in a battle. With his spiritual power, he easily overpowered the Martial Arts Master. However, he was quickly targeted by the Formation Spirit, and lightning kept striking him. Lin Jiang was hit several times, causing him intense pain.

In the sky, Lin Batian and Zhou Huaiying, along with several Soul Changing beings, fought against Li Yuncheng. They joined forces to try and break through the entire Heavenly Wall. The battle was extremely intense.

"Lin Batian, pollution of the spiritual veins is too slow. We must break the spiritual mountain and destroy the veins," Lin Batian said.

Zhou Huaiying conveyed to Lin Batian through a message, as they faced immense pressure. Li Yuncheng was too powerful. Although they had started polluting the spiritual veins, it was happening too slowly and not having much effect.

"No, we can’t divide our forces. Our Nascent Soul is not strong enough," Lin Batian replied. They had all the remaining resources, but the Nascent Soul had only regained about ten to twenty percent of its strength. They couldn’t break the spiritual mountain at all.

"At this rate, we won’t last long. We need to find a solution," Lin Batian said. The remaining resources were all in their hands. The Nascent Soul had not recovered enough strength to break the spiritual mountain.

"Let Xiao Yi take action. He has a plan."

"Okay."

Zhou Huaiying immediately agreed, even though he didn’t know what Xiao Yi had planned, but he trusted Lin Batian.

······

"Follow me and attack Jingdu City."

Lin Jiang received the order. At this moment, he also annihilated the Martial Arts Master at Yuquan Mountain, then led the remaining troops and headed towards Jingdu City.

Not caring about the depletion of his spiritual power, Lin Jiang quickly flew to the outskirts of Jingdu City with dozens of people. At this time, there were still many mortal armies in Jingdu City who, upon seeing the group, frantically shot arrows.

Relying on his magical robes, Lin Jiang braved countless arrows and reached the city walls, clearing out nearby mortal soldiers to create a path for the group.

"Go to the palace, there is abundant spiritual energy there."

Lin Jiang encouraged the group, saying that as long as they entered an area with spiritual energy, their golden cores would automatically absorb it. They would only become stronger the more they fought.

But the palace was not easy to enter. It was still more than ten roads away from the outer city, and now the royal family and nobles of Jingdu City were also fighting desperately. To make it through, they needed time, and the Formation Spirit would not allow them to succeed so easily.

"Immortal Alliance, turncoat, follow me and kill"

Lin Jiang floated high above the outer city, shouting to the entire Jingdu City. Immortal Alliance is in the capital, and there is one final group of soldiers.

"Everyone, overthrow the Divine Kingdom, today, follow me and kill the enemy."

Hearing Lin Jiang’s voice, inside a government official’s residence, the official took off his official robe, revealing the armor underneath. Behind him stood his family, servants, and guards.

"The Divine Kingdom is unjust, kill the Li family."

In a prince’s palace, one of the prince’s advisors suddenly shouted, then stabbed the prince in the back with a knife. Although he was quickly killed by the chaos, it still shocked everyone.

"Brothers, the masters treat us well. If the Divine Kingdom wins, we will all be reduced to slaves. Do you agree?"

"I refuse."

"Then follow me and overthrow the Divine Kingdom."

In one of the industries of the Immortal Alliance, the shopkeeper instructed the assistants and guards to prepare for battle. Then, boxes of weapons were carried out and everyone took their weapons and fought against the soldiers outside.

Over a period of more than ten years, Lin Jiang hid many people under the officials, staff, and assistants. Now, they all took action and became a new force for the Immortal Alliance. Though they weren’t very powerful, they caught the Divine Kingdom soldiers off guard.

Emperor Li Si had lost his previous composure by now. He was in the palace, giving out orders. He had ruled as emperor for decades, and his authority still prevailed. The royal and noble families were still willing to obey his commands.

*Sound effect, "Plop"

Suddenly, Emperor Li Si spurted out black blood and collapsed in front of his ministers. The ministers were shocked. Someone tried to check the emperor’s pulse but found that he had no breath left.

Before the ministers could react, a flying sword appeared and killed them all.

"I am Bing State Gu Pingbo."

Then, a loud explosion occurred, and a young man stood on the flying sword, coldly observing the people in the palace.

"Doctor Gu."

"How did he enter the palace?"

"It’s him…"

Many people recognized him. He is the emperor’s most trusted alchemist, who has been making longevity pills for the emperor for more than ten years. The Divine Kingdom knows that he is a cultivator and never allows him to enter the palace.

"*sound effect* (such as a boom or a crash)"

Thunder once again descended from the sky, but before it could strike, Gu Pingbo had already extinguished it with his sword.

"Bloodline tracking, go."

Gu Pingbo pulled out a compass-like treasure. The treasure flew out, emitting a golden light that transformed into hundreds of golden dots. These dots landed on the heads of the others in the palace. As soon as the golden light touched them, Gu Pingbo’s flying sword arrived, and their heads fell to the ground.

"Li Yuncheng, surrender, or today I will wipe out your entire Li family."

Gu Pingbo exterminated all the descendants of the Li family in the palace. Then, he shouted towards the sky. At this moment, Li Yuncheng felt immense sadness and anger, showing signs of madness.
