Chapter 681: Chapter 309: Ten Million Nascent Souls, Scarlet Ghost Witch_3

Among them, Han Yi’s gaze shrank, as he saw the third Evil Saint he had encountered after his Green Reed Sword was promoted to the level of a Spiritual Treasure. He used the green light to teleport and escape.

However, Han Yi did not make a move.

Xuanhai Evil Saint, sensing someone’s gaze, followed its trail and narrowed his eyes upon Han Yi.

In a flash, the figures of the two crossed paths and disappeared.

Han Yi descended with the other Nascent Souls, standing in the square. Surrounding him were White Jade Cliff, Dong Chang, and two other Nascent Souls who were friends with White Jade Cliff, one of them in the Mid-stage Nascent Soul and the other in the Late Stage.

As for Han Yi, he was still new to the Nascent Soul stage, and he was not familiar with many people. He had only met several of the cultivators from Daqin and Daqian and couldn’t really discuss collaboration.

The atmosphere on the square was solemn, with the Nascent Souls, the Spirit Transformation cultivators, and even the Half-immortals standing silently like soldiers about to go on a expedition, receiving their general’s final inspection.

With time passing, more and more cultivators gathered in the square. Han Yi estimated that there were over a hundred thousand Nascent Souls alone.

This was just a single Immortal Castle. As Zhao Xuan Yi had said, there were a total of one hundred and thirty-seven Immortal Castle cultivators who would be entering the Scarlet Dimension this time. That meant that the number of Nascent Soul cultivators would likely exceed ten million.

Ten million Nascent Souls, Han Yi could no longer imagine such a grand scene.

Suddenly, he thought of the memory he had glimpsed from the Spirit Light left by a Spirit Transformation cultivator at the Eternal Rest site, where he had obtained the Demonic Slayer’s Armor and Broken Sword. He remembered the battlefield he had caught a glimpse of back then.

In that scene, Nascent Souls formed groups led by Spirit Transformation cultivators, with countless arrays of Nascent Souls and Spirit Transformation cultivators standing in the void. At the very front of the void, there were several dozen figures clad in brocade robes emanating a Demi-Immortal Aura.

In the far distance of the cultivators, countless Ancient Demons were charging towards them.

The scale of that battlefield paled in comparison to the gathering at the Immortal Castle. However, the nature of the two was the same – they were both a microcosm of the battles between the Immortal and Wisdom Realms.

Now, he too was part of such a vast and magnificent battlefield, becoming a silhouette in the next chapter of history.

Just as Han Yi’s thoughts were drifting away.

A majestic voice suddenly rang out in the square, and hundreds of thousands of cultivators could hear every word clearly because the speaker was the current Lord of the Immortal Castle.

Daluo Fairy Court, one of the Nine Palaces, Changsheng Immortal Palace, Tian Yi Immortal.

“I am Tian Yi of the Changsheng Immortal Palace.”

“This operation to encircle the Scarlet Dimension, kill the Ghost Witch, eliminate the Scarlet Dimension, and ensure our victory.”

“Attack immediately.”

Tian Yi Immortal did not say much; only three sentences, each brimming with murderous intent that swept across the hundred thousand cultivators, making them shudder as though they were in the midst of a hellish, bloody battlefield.

This was the power of a Void Battlefield Immortal Castle Lord, a strength only a few possessed to qualify to lead a castle.

Next, he ascended and landed on the Immortal Boat hovering above the square. With a wave of his hand, the Immortal Boat connected with the Immortal Castle. An invisible force emerged from the castle, enveloping the cultivators in the square, and they all involuntarily flew into the Immortal Boat.

From below, the Immortal Boat did not seem that large, but once inside it, they realized just how vast it was. It was so impressively large that it could not be described merely as a boat but rather more like a vast continent, upon which everyone settled.

“An Immortal Artifact level Immortal Boat.” Han Yi understood in his heart.

Afterward, the Immortal Boat set off. Han Yi couldn’t feel any turbulence, but the changing scarlet light above him allowed him to surmise that the Immortal Boat was quickly heading toward the source of the scarlet light.

Han Yi shook his head.

Frankly, he felt a little unlucky to have landed in a battlefield like the Scarlet Dimension. Such encounters were not common for Immortal Castles; otherwise, there wouldn’t be an unending stream of cultivators appearing in the distance.

Battles like this would be considered medium or even large-scale engagements in the long history of struggles between the Immortal and Wisdom Realms, even in the void.

But now, he had no choice but to walk this path. Even if he wanted to escape, there was no way out; he could only follow the darkness.

However,

Before this, Zhao Xuan Yi had mentioned that if one accumulated enough Immortal Merit, they could request to be transferred back to the Daluo Immortal Realm. Han Yi already had a plan for this time: to go all-out in battle, killing as many Ghost Witches as possible, and acquiring enough Immortal Merit to request his withdrawal from the Void Battlefield and transfer back to the Daluo Immortal Realm, all while protecting his life.

Admittedly, even though his fighting prowess was extraordinary, it wouldn’t make much difference when placed among the tens of millions of cultivators at the same stage.

In large-scale battles, one’s strength was often not the key to survival; instead, it was fate that determined whether one lived or died.

As the Immortal Boat took off and flew, more and more Nascent Soul cultivators gathered around White Jade Cliff, all understanding the importance of unity and the power of a team.

Ultimately, twenty-seven people, including Han Yi, had gathered. Most of them were cultivators from the Yu Heng World, with a few being from Beidou and other realms familiar with the Yu Heng cultivators. Among them, there were seven Late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, ten Mid-stage Nascent Souls, and ten Early-stage Nascent Souls, with Han Yi being one of the latter.

“We’ve arrived.”

A grand voice resounded from the Immortal Boat.

Next, everyone felt a force of law descend upon them, lifting their bodies as they flew towards the top of the Immortal Boat and plunged into the scarlet light outside of it.

At that moment, the scarlet light was so dense that even Han Yi could not see anything a meter away. When he reached out with his divine sense, it was burned by the scarlet light. This burning sensation threatened to surge into his body, which would have led to disastrous consequences. In the blink of an eye, Han Yi painfully severed his scattered divine sense.

Then,

As if everything had been flipped upside down, a gravitational force descended from the scarlet light above his head. He changed his position accordingly, plunging into it.

Within dozens of breaths, he crossed the dense scarlet light, and his vision suddenly brightened.

Before he could act,

Shriek!

A piercing cry that could tear apart a Nascent Soul’s Divine Soul exploded in his ears!!
