Chapter 2776: Heavenly Eye World
In a lesser world like the Seven Stars Sword World, the strongest expert was only an Immortal King.
Destroying the Seven Stars Sword World was something that any heaven-grade faction in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain could do.
If a lesser world like that wanted to survive in the upper world, they would have to be careful the entire time, as though they were treading on thin ice. They would either have to rely on some super large worlds or think of ways to befriend the surrounding worlds.
Even so, they did not manage to escape this calamity!
Right then, Lu Yun’s spirit consciousness s.h.i.+fted and his gaze landed on one of the stars. “There’s movement over there. Let’s go take a look!”
Everyone from the Sword World stood on the immortal boat as it transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards the shattered star.
Before long, everyone arrived at the periphery of the shattered star.
On the star, two factions were fighting intensely. Corpses were everywhere and blood qi surged!
There were hundreds of thousands of cultivators on one side and most of them were Heaven Immortals. Among them, there were hundreds of Perfected Immortal experts who waved their flags and let out killing cries!
On the other side, there were only around 10,000 people left. They were surrounded by the army of hundreds of thousands of cultivators and fought in blood.
The difference between the two parties was way too great. Be it in terms of numbers or strength, there was a world of difference!
There were less than ten Perfected Immortals left within the group that was surrounded.
Even so, the group of people were fearless and protected each other. They fought with their last bit of strength and finally fell into a pool of blood!
In midair, there were six Immortal King experts with terrifying auras standing. They were looking down at this scene coldly.
If the six Immortal King experts attacked, the io,ooo-odd cultivators trapped would not be able to last more than a breath!
Their gazes were cold and filled with mockery and cruelty.
This was a complete ma.s.sacre!
Among the trapped cultivators, a Perfected Immortal was covered in injuries. His face was pale and his aura was weak—he could no longer fight.
However, his eyes were still widened and he had an unyielding expression. He hugged the banner in his arms tightly and raised it high.
The patterns on the flag corresponded to the seven stars in the starry skies.
There were only about 10,000 of the hundreds of millions of cultivators and living beings in the Seven Stars Sword World left and the number was decreasing continuously!
In the faction slaughtering the cultivators of the Seven Stars Sword World, the picture on their flags was rather strange and terrifying. It was a gigantic eye that seemed to be staring at everyone from the Sword World.
“They’re from the Heavenly Eye World!”
Feng Xu frowned with a grim expression.
Su Zimo had long noticed that although the group of cultivators looked similar to humans, a crack appeared in their brows when they executed their Dharmic Daos—it was the Heavenly Eye race that he had come into contact with in Tianhuang Mainland!
Bi Tianxing said in a deep voice, “The Immortal King in the lead should be King Cold Eye of the Heavenly Eye World. He’s powerful and can’t be underestimated.”
“Save them!”
Lu Yun said and was about to charge into the battlefield with the immortal boat.
However, Yu Lan stopped him and said in a low voice, “The Heavenly Eye race is also a super large world. If we attack rashly, we’ll probably add another powerful enemy to the Sword World!”
“The Seven Stars Sword World is only on good terms with the Sword World but is not a subsidiary of it. There’s no need for us to get involved.”
Lu Yun looked at the purgatory-like scene around him and the group of Seven Stars Sword World cultivators who were still resisting desperately on the star. Grief and indignation filled his heart as he asked, “Does it mean that the Heavenly Eye World can slaughter living beings wantonly and do whatever they want just because they’re a super large world?”
“Are we going to leave the Seven Stars Sword World in the lurch just because they are not a subsidiary of ours?”
“Are we going to turn a blind eye to everything today just because we’re afraid of making enemies for the Sword World?”
Yu Lan was speechless in the face of Lu Yun’s questions.
Feng Xu said in a low voice, “It would have been fine if we had arrived earlier. But now, so many people have died in the Seven Stars Sword World and there are only more than 10,000 of them left.”
“It does seem a little rash for us to be enemies with the Heavenly Eye World just for the io,ooo-odd people…”
Lu Yun turned around and stared fixedly at Feng Xu, asking slowly, “So the remaining io,ooo-odd cultivators of the Seven Stars Sword World aren’t considered humans? They deserve to die?”
Bi Tianxing wanted to say something but hesitated.
He knew that it was not that Peak Masters Yu Lan and Feng Xu did not want to save them. They merely weighed the pros and cons and said those words from the perspective of the Sword World.
However, those words did seem a little cold and unreasonable.
Suddenly, Lu Yun looked at Su Zimo with antic.i.p.ation in his eyes. “Brother Su, what do you think?”
There were five Peak Masters present. If one of them remained silent and three of them objected, it would be inappropriate for Lu Yun to appear alone even if he wanted to save them.
Su Zimo said, “If cultivators of our generation have to be overcautious even when saving people, there’s no need for us to cultivate the Sword Dao in the future.”
“That’s right!”
Lu Yun perked up when he heard that.
Yu Lan and Feng Xu sighed gently with a hint of shame.
The Perfected Immortals of the various Sword Peaks, such as w.a.n.g Dong and Gong Sunyu, could not hold it in any longer.
They were not like the two Peak Masters who had too many reservations. They were young and hot-blooded and cultivated the Sword Dao, upholding justice in their hearts. When they saw injustice, they should stand out!
“Go!”
Yu Lan made a decision quickly as well.
After the brief disagreement, the five Peak Masters quickly reached an agreement and sped towards the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, everyone from the Sword World descended.
“Stop!”
Lu Yun released the powerful might of the Grotto-heaven realm and enveloped the entire battlefield instantly.
Most of the people fighting on the battlefield were Heaven Immortals and Perfected Immortals. They could not defend against the might of an Immortal King’s spirit consciousness and stopped one after another.
The originally tragic battle also paused for a moment.
However, before long, another Immortal King’s spirit consciousness surged over and resisted Lu Yun’s spirit consciousness. The pressure on the cultivators on the battlefield decreased significantly.
It was the leader of the six Immortal Kings who attacked and resolved Lu Yun’s spirit consciousness pressure.
Everyone from the Heavenly Eye race had long gone berserk from their killing spree—how could they stop so easily?
The moment everyone from the Heavenly Eye race regained their freedom and saw that their Immortal King experts were holding down the fort, they had no reservations and charged into the crowd of the Seven Stars Sword World to ma.s.sacre once more!
Furthermore, everyone from the Heavenly Eye race seemed to have guessed that something might happen later on and attacked even more ferociously, wanting to kill the remaining Seven Stars Sword World cultivators as quickly as possible!
There were not many Seven Stars Sword World cultivators to begin with and they were decreasing at every moment. Now, there were only a few thousand left!
Lu Yun’s expression darkened.
As an Immortal King expert, he naturally could not enter the battlefield and bully the weak by attacking the Perfected Immortals and Heaven Immortals of the Heavenly Eye race.
Lu Yun took a deep breath and cupped his fists towards the six Immortal Kings of the Heavenly Eye World in midair. “Fellow Daoists of the Heavenly Eye World, the Seven Stars Sword World is almost destroyed and hundreds of millions of living beings have died. I hope everyone can stop and not kill them all!”
He attempted to reason with the experts of the Heavenly Eye World.
It would naturally be best if they could avoid a direct conflict with the Heavenly Eye World.
“So, it’s the Peak Master of Carnage Sword Peak.”
The leader of the Heavenly Eye World whose Dao t.i.tle was Cold Eye looked towards the group of people from the Sword World before raising his brows slightly. “As far as I know, the Seven Stars Sword World has nothing to do with the Sword World.. Everyone, it’s best if you don’t meddle in the business of others lest you attract trouble!”
