Chapter 861 - 698: Qin An Arrives
At this moment, a terrifying battle was erupting on a clearing.
On one side were the people of the Qiankun Forbidden Land, their bodies covered with dense scars, appearing extremely tragic, with a feeling of imminent annihilation.
On the other side were the forbidden land traitors led by an old white-haired man.
The old man held a long blade, and although he was white-haired and wrinkled, he exuded an astonishing Evil Qi.
He stood there, witnessing the battlefield in front, his gaze cold and full of murderous intent.
The battlefield was showing a one-sided trend, with the people of the Qiankun Forbidden Land falling into desperate situations at any moment, while the old man still held his long blade, his gaze fixed on one of the Defenders of the Qiankun Forbidden Land, without the slightest change.
"Qian Wuxin, you need not struggle any longer. If you obediently accept death now, you might still gain a quick death. Otherwise, if you continue to struggle, I’m afraid the most terrifying death awaits you, and you will die in agony."
The one called Qian Wuxin was a middle-aged man, wielding a pair of Yin-Yang hooks, continuously slaying the oncoming traitors.
The hook on the left glowed gold, representing Yang; the hook on the right glowed silver, representing Yin.
This was the unique weapon of the Qiankun Forbidden Land, using the Yin-Yang hooks to communicate the principles of Qiankun, capable of producing immense power.
But at this moment, even with such formidable power, they were still unable to fend off the traitor’s assault and were even on the brink of extinction.
Qian Wuxin, after slaying another traitor, saw a fellow Defender beside him being cut in half, a flash of anger flaring in his eyes.
He glanced back at the white-haired old man, shouting, "Blade Maniac, you’re just standing back there watching, without the courage to come and fight me. On what grounds do you expect me to surrender without a fight?"
"If you have the skill, carry your blade over here and duel with me. Let me see just how formidable your blade skill is, being the Blade Maniac who has pursued it for a lifetime!"
The Blade Maniac slightly shook his head, his white hair swaying in the wind, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, "You’re trying to provoke me, but I won’t fall for it. If I get involved now, it would be dangerous, and since I’m the leader of this operation, if something happens to me, you would undoubtedly find an opportunity to turn the tables."
"I won’t let such minor mistakes occur, and you’re about to reach your limit."
Both the Blade Maniac and the Defender known as Qian Wuxin were at the level of Manifestation Realm Perfection, considered top-tier experts.
However, even with the power of Manifestation Realm Perfection, Qian Wuxin couldn’t handle the assault from so many traitors, thus he was finding it increasingly difficult amidst this terrifying onslaught.
He knew that perhaps it wouldn’t be long before he would be completely annihilated under the traitor’s attack, turning into a corpse.
The Blade Maniac spoke no more and continued holding his long blade, watching the battlefield ahead with a sense of assured victory.
They were now exhibiting overwhelming dominance, and what he needed to do was simply stand there and wait for Qian Wuxin and the other Defenders of the forbidden land to perish completely, then he could return and report to the Celestial Demon General Envoy.
The battlefield continued to spread, the brutal atmosphere intensifying, and the number of Defenders dwindling at a visibly rapid pace, with Defenders being killed every minute.
The traitors also suffered some losses, but compared to their surviving numbers, the losses were negligible, not even worth counting.
Qian Wuxin was now completely covered in dense scars and could barely hold on.
Under such an attack, being able to endure to this point was extremely difficult, yet he was still gritting his teeth and persevering.
The Colorless Forbidden Land had sent the message out, using special methods to inform the Defenders of various forbidden lands.
They all knew that once the Savior found the message for help, he would undoubtedly rush over without hesitation.
With the Savior’s ability to turn the tide, perhaps the current situation could be resolved.
But Qian Wuxin knew that perhaps he could not hold on much longer.
Qian Wuxin gritted his teeth and suddenly spoke, "Activate the power of the Qiankun Treasure, I want to reverse the Qiankun, and let them be buried with us!"
The Qiankun Treasure is the ultimate treasure of the Qiankun Forbidden Land, capable of reversing Yin and Yang to gain immense power, but this power is temporary.
When this power merges into the body, it destroys everything inside, and when the power dissipates, the one who gained the power will also turn to dust.
He was originally reluctant to use such power because he believed that perhaps they could wait a bit longer.
If the Savior truly arrived, they wouldn’t need to perish together with the enemy.
But now, the situation was out of their control, because if they didn’t use the Qiankun Treasure, total annihilation awaited them, and the enemy would suffer nothing.
Rather than this, it was better to use the Qiankun Treasure, perishing together with the enemy, effectively reducing the traitor’s power, and providing a path of survival for other forbidden lands.
This was Qian Wuxin’s own thought, and after hearing it, the other Defenders silently nodded in agreement.
They agreed to Qian Wuxin’s idea, preparing to unite their powers to summon the ultimate treasure of the Qiankun Forbidden Land.
The Blade Maniac, upon seeing this, didn’t care but instead taunted coldly, "Activating the Qiankun Treasure requires an immense amount of power, and now, your current strength should be insufficient to invoke the Qiankun Treasure."
