561: This... is your last resort.

At this point, no one believed that Shen Tianxing had the slightest chance of turning the tables!

After all, the immense power unleashed by the Nine Peaks Grand Formation was too formidable, exceeding everyone's imagination, and not something a Cultivator could withstand.

Even if Shen Tianxing could cut down Venerable Feiyun, a Sixth Level of the Immortal Realm expert, with a single strike, he was still firmly suppressed beneath the Nine Peaks Grand Formation.

After witnessing all of this, which Cultivator would still dare to say that Shen Tianxing could turn the tables?

It's impossible!

"Mr. Shen!"

Liu Ruqing's eyes widened, her expression suddenly changed, and an ancient sword in her hand vibrated, unleashing a brilliant sword light towards the Immortal Realm expert who was entangled with her.

She couldn't just stand by and watch Shen Tianxing fall into danger. Among those present, few could help Shen Tianxing besides her.

Shen Tianxing's dozen or so Immortal Realm experts were currently thousands of miles away, completely out of reach!

"Tianxing!"

Upon seeing this, Yan Yuzhu and Liu Xianyun both abandoned their opponents and flew directly towards Shen Tianxing.

Boom!!!

Suddenly, an invisible force of true Qi erupted in front of them, and Liu Ruqing's voice followed.

"Don't go over there, you can't withstand the Qi of the Immortal Realm. The Nine Peaks Grand Formation has already been activated; you can't get in!"

Even Immortal Realm experts couldn't intervene in the battlefield between Shen Tianxing and Xiao Tianliu. Liu Ruqing had already tried; even she couldn't break through the Formation's barrier, so it would be even more impossible for others.

If, by some accident, the Qi inside were to erupt and sweep out, all Cultivators within thousands of miles would die!

Yan Yuzhu and Liu Xianyun were not ordinary people; their concern had clouded their judgment, but they quickly regained their rationality.

Their cultivation was only at the Golden Body Realm. If this Formation was beyond even Shen Tianxing's power, then going there would only be seeking death.

While fending off the Immortal Realm expert's entanglement, Liu Ruqing pondered countermeasures. She observed the operation of the Nine Peaks Grand Formation, hoping to find its weakest point, then seize an opportunity to break through it and rescue Shen Tianxing.

However, before she could make any move, a magnificent and vast force of true Qi suddenly erupted from within the Nine Peaks Grand Formation, shooting straight up to the Nine Heavens!

Boom!!!

This aura came too quickly, catching everyone by surprise!

Bang!!!

A violent tremor came, and under the dumbfounded gaze of the Cultivators, Shen Tianxing's body glowed with a brilliant green light, and the nine streams of Spiritual Qi suppressing him were directly shattered!

"Holy crap! What did I just see? The immense power of the nine immortal mountains couldn't even suppress Shen Tianxing?"

"This... how is this possible? What Realm has Shen Tianxing reached to be able to withstand such a terrifying Formation? Or is Xiao Tianliu's so-called nine immortal mountains just a bluff?"

"That shouldn't be. I've read some legends. In ancient times, there were said to be ten immortal mountains, I don't know if that's accurate, but at least these nine immortal mountains are very similar to the descriptions, possessing terrifying power. As long as the person presiding over the Formation is strong enough, it can theoretically suppress all Cultivators! A mere Immortal Realm shouldn't be enough to fail to suppress it. It is rumored that even the Heaven and Earth Sealing King Realm can be directly killed!"

"Really? But what happened here? Xiao Tianliu's strength is also at the Immortal Realm; can he not control these Nine Peaks Grand Formation?"

"This... who knows, perhaps there's something we don't understand."

"My goodness, the aura around Shen Tianxing is constantly strengthening, so powerful!!!"

In the distant sky, everyone noticed that Shen Tianxing's body glowed with dazzling green light, and the aura erupting from within him continuously surged, without the slightest pause. Under the powerful eruption of true Qi, an area of a million miles instantly turned into ruins due to the true Qi's shockwaves!

"This... is this your so-called Nine Peaks Grand Formation? Are you trying to fool me? It's too disappointing."

"Or perhaps, I, Shen Tianxing, am not worthy of you using the Ten Directions Gods?"

Shen Tianxing's voice boomed like heavenly thunder, echoing through the clouds!

Everyone present could hear it clearly, and this naturally included Xiao Tianliu!

Xiao Tianliu's gaze was now blank, his pupils suddenly constricted, as if he had seen a monster awakened from ancient times.

For a moment, he didn't know how to respond to Shen Tianxing's words.

"I knew he would be fine!"

The distant battle raged on, but Liu Xianyun and Yan Yuzhu had been paying attention to this battlefield all along. Earlier, their minds had been in turmoil, almost causing a major mishap.

Fortunately, Liu Ruqing's reminder quickly helped them calm down.

This was the effect of concern clouding judgment; even Yan Yuzhu, the Empress who never made mistakes, couldn't escape it.

One could only say that they cared too much about Shen Tianxing.

Liu Ruqing also relaxed at this moment. She had been trying to find an opportunity to rescue Shen Tianxing, but unexpectedly, within just a few breaths, Shen Tianxing had directly broken free from the suppression of the Nine Peaks Grand Formation. Under the powerful aura that enveloped him, he seemed like a god descended to the mortal world!

Anyone who witnessed this scene was deeply moved.

Especially a strong woman like Liu Ruqing, who had never encountered such a man in her entire life. Shen Tianxing was the first to move her!

"You... how do you know about the Ten Directions Gods!"

At this moment, Xiao Tianliu finally woke up from his shock. What he found even more unimaginable was that his ultimate hidden trump card, the Ten Directions Gods Grand Array, was actually seen through by Shen Tianxing?

This was simply incredible!

The Ten Directions Gods Grand Array was unknown even to the high-ranking officials within the Holy Heaven Demon Sect. This was a secret exclusive to the Sect Master's lineage!

It was a protective Formation left by the founding Ancestral Master of the Holy Heaven Demon Sect in ancient times!

It hadn't been used for countless years, and outsiders simply couldn't know about it. How did Shen Tianxing find out?

"Very surprised, aren't you?"

Shen Tianxing's voice carried a hint of mockery as he pointed at Tongtian Peak and said, "The tenth peak, Tongtian Peak!"

"This... is your final trump card, the Ten Directions Gods!"

A commotion!

Upon hearing Shen Tianxing's words, Xiao Tianliu was already numb!

And the other Cultivators of the Holy Heaven Demon Sect also showed incredible expressions!

None of them knew that their Sect actually had a tenth immortal mountain!

They had always thought this peak merely represented the highest authority of the Sect. Who would have thought that this was actually one of the ten immortal mountains.

"No wonder the Sect Master never allowed any Disciple to cultivate on Tongtian Peak. So, this is the Sect's last hidden Legacy!"

"We thought our Sect's Nine Peaks Legacy was already the limit. Now it seems our Sect also has a tenth Legacy, but how did Shen Tianxing know this secret, which even we don't know?"

"There's no way to know. Shen Tianxing's mystery is something no one can explain now. Who knows how he found out? I only know that our Sect Master has hidden things deeply enough, even from the Disciples of this Sect. It seems we are all just pawns!"
