Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 14095 Three Years of Sealing
This would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for the entire town. Once the powerful beings from the Realm of Annihilation descend, the town would be plunged into a state of utter devastation.

We must stop them!

Ling Xiao had only one thought in his mind: he had to seal this spatial passage no matter what, and he absolutely could not allow the powerful beings of the Silent Realm to take advantage of it.

He whirled around, his gaze flashing like lightning as he looked at Green Spirit, his voice urgent like never before: "Green Spirit, help me, destroy this thing!"

The voice was filled with anxiety and determination, as if every second of delay would bring about a great disaster.

Green Spirit did not hesitate at all; she knew the seriousness of the matter.

The longsword in her hand shone brightly, unleashing an extreme light capable of incinerating stars. The light was dazzling and seemed to illuminate the entire dark universe.

She channeled all her spiritual power, concentrating all her life's cultivation into this single sword strike. A crimson sword beam, like a dazzling meteor, tore through the sky, carrying an aura of world-destroying power, and slammed fiercely into the dark vortex.

Boom——!
A deafening roar resounded, and destructive energy exploded instantly, forming a powerful shockwave that spread outwards.

The surrounding space was violently distorted, as if being kneaded by an invisible giant hand, and spatial rifts, like black pythons, roamed freely through the void.

Lingxiao and Lüling were thrown back by the powerful impact, their clothes fluttering in the wind and their hair becoming disheveled.

However, when the sword light dissipated, the dark vortex remained quietly suspended in place, as if nothing had ever happened.

The sword light failed to budge it in the slightest, not even causing a ripple, just like a small stone thrown into a bottomless abyss, without causing any waves.

Ling Xiao and Lu Ling exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock and helplessness. They knew that destroying this spatial passage would be far more difficult than they had imagined.

Green Spirit slowly sheathed the longsword that shimmered with a faint light. The moment the sword went into its sheath, it made a crisp yet muffled sound.

Her face was as solemn as iron, her brows furrowed tightly as if covered with a thick layer of frost, and she said coldly, "That vortex core... cannot be broken by the power of this world."

The voice was low and hoarse, carrying a hint of helplessness and despair, each word seemingly squeezed out from between teeth.

After saying that, she slowly turned her gaze to Ling Xiao, her eyes filled with worry and expectation, as if waiting for Ling Xiao to come up with a brilliant way to resolve the current crisis.

Ling Xiao stood there quietly, his face as gloomy as the sky before a storm, with dark clouds that made it hard to breathe.

He stared intently at the enormous black vortex, his mind racing with thoughts.

It seems impossible to destroy this thing; the vortex core, as solid as an impenetrable wall, is simply beyond the reach of the power of their world.

However, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: if it could be sealed away, that would be a good idea.

Even if the seal cannot be maintained for too long, as long as it can buy some time for the Great Town Dynasty, allowing everyone enough time to prepare and improve their strength, that will be enough.

After all, in this cruel world of cultivation, time is life, time is hope.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Xiao's eyes hardened, as if he had made a firm decision.

Without hesitation, he spat out a ball of primordial blood. The blood was like a burning flame, radiating a scorching aura. It drew a magnificent arc in the air and splashed onto the surrounding ground.

"Are you crazy? If you keep doing this, your cultivation will drop again, and your body won't be able to take it."

Upon seeing this, Green Spirit panicked. Her eyes widened, and her face was filled with fear and anxiety.

She knew all too well what the primordial blood meant to a cultivator. It was the essence of life and the foundation of cultivation. Losing too much of it would not only cause a significant drop in cultivation level, but also make the body extremely weak, and might even leave behind incurable sequelae.

"It doesn't matter. I'm no match for this Realm of Annihilation right now. This is the only way I can slow them down."

Ling Xiao shook his head, a resolute glint in his eyes. "If my cultivation level drops, I can start cultivating again. As long as I have a breath left, I have a chance to recover to my peak condition. If my body can't take it anymore, I can rest and recuperate. I'll get better eventually. But if I die, I'll lose everything, and the Great Town Dynasty will be plunged into utter ruin."

His voice, though weak, was full of power, as if he were challenging fate.

After saying that, Ling Xiao ignored Green Spirit's advice and continued to focus on operating the Heavenly Demon Array Plate.

His hands moved like nimble butterflies, rapidly dancing on the array plate, with complex runes flying from his fingertips and merging into the plate.

As he manipulated it, streams of holy runes surged from the array plate, crashing against the massive black vortex like a raging tide.

Each impact produced a deafening roar, as if the heavens and earth were roaring and the stars were trembling.

Ling Xiao's face visibly turned paler, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, soaking his clothes.

His body began to tremble slightly, as if a gentle breeze could knock him over.

But he did not back down; he gritted his teeth and continued to draw upon the last of his energy.

His eyes revealed an indomitable spirit, as if telling the black vortex that he would never give up easily.

Fortunately, his cultivation had advanced to the peak of the Condensation Realm, and his body contained powerful spiritual energy; otherwise, he would not have been able to hold on by now.

Time passed second by second, and Ling Xiao continued to release holy runes, one, two... releasing tens of thousands of holy runes in total.

Under his fierce attack, the huge black vortex finally began to change, its rotation speed gradually slowing down, like a tamed wild beast becoming docile.

After a while, the huge black vortex stopped spinning and floated quietly in mid-air, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was extremely weak. His body swayed precariously, like a leaf falling in the wind.

But his eyes remained resolute, like a burning flame illuminating the road ahead.

He knew that this was only a temporary victory and that the road ahead was still long, but he was confident that he would be able to protect the Great Town Dynasty and everyone around him.

"It should delay things for about three years... If there are no special circumstances... I'll destroy the entire Silent Realm sooner or later!"

Ling Xiao suddenly raised his hand and fiercely wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. The crimson blood stained the white sleeve, resembling a blooming, bewitching flower.
