504: The war of civilizations has always been like this

He reached out and grasped, and a star sword appeared in Yang Dian's hand.

Dudu was transforming, and so was the star matter, Dudu's companion wonder.

Over this past year, with Yang Dian's abundant supply of star core fragments and the washing of vast Qi and blood, the star matter had undergone a fundamental transformation.

Not to mention anything else.

In terms of mass alone, the star matter had become thousands to tens of thousands of times heavier.

'The star matter requires more and more star core fragments if it wants to continue transforming.'

'At this rate, no matter how many star core fragments there are, they won't be enough for the star matter.'

'Perhaps I can think of other methods.'

'For example...'

'Engraving rule runes into the star matter, refining it into an existence like a Magical Artifact or an Immortal Artifact.'

He lightly flicked the star sword, and amidst the melodious sword hum, countless Sword Qi burst forth from the star sword, tearing through the Void Realm.

White Geng Metal Sword Qi, green Yi Wood Sword Qi, black Weak Water Sword Qi, red Li Fire Sword Qi, dark brown Wu Earth Sword Qi... five-colored Sword Qi intertwined across the Immortal Capital's sky, forming a dazzling sword curtain.

After its transformation, the star matter did not just increase in weight.

It could also amplify Yang Dian's Qi and blood power.

If, before converging the star matter to form a long sword, the amount of Qi and blood needed to condense a sword curtain was 10,

Then, after holding the star sword, the amount of Qi and blood needed to condense ten thousand swords would at most be 3.

The consumption was reduced by more than two times.

'If I were to engrave Dao runes into the star matter, to what extent could it amplify my power?'

Thoughts long, time short.

In an instant, Yang Dian, who had condensed a sword curtain of ten thousand Sword Qi, casually twirled his sword, its tip pointing directly at the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty's Celestial Officials and Immortal Marquises.

Yang Dian then pointed the tip of his sword, and ten thousand Sword Qi, like shooting stars, pierced directly towards the Da Yu Cultivators.

The Martial Celestial Official watched the rain of swords falling from the sky, his pupils sharply constricting, his already somewhat grim face turning even paler.

He had exchanged one blow with Yang Dian head-on.

No one understood better than him just how terrifying Yang Dian's true strength was, despite his aura seemingly being similar to his own.

Previously, Yang Dian's casual swipe of a claw had almost torn him apart.

Now, holding a star sword that clearly wasn't simple, and summoning ten thousand swords... 'Can I block this?'

The Celestial Official Yu, beside him, glanced at the Martial Celestial Official.

Seeing that he couldn't be relied upon, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

"A silver spear with a wax head."

After a sarcastic remark, she then unfurled several translucent silk ribbons on her body, looking gravely at the rain of swords falling from the sky:

"Activate the Formation!"

As her delicate shout fell, a faint red glow rose from the Golden Luan Hall of the Heavenly Palace, instantly transforming into ten thousand streaks of light that spread throughout the entire Immortal City.

South of the city, in a small courtyard.

The old man watched the dark purple glow rising from the stone platform in the courtyard, and couldn't help but exclaim in wonder.

"I didn't expect that there really would be someone in this world who could push the Immortal Dynasty to a dead end, forcing the Immortal Dynasty to activate this Heaven-Returning Grand Formation."

The young girl blinked her eyes:

"Then Master, should we?..."

As the young girl spoke, she stretched her hand towards the stone platform, the expression in her eyes self-evident.

The old man smiled and unhesitatingly reached his hand into the dark purple glow on the stone platform:

"Naturally, we must lend a hand to the Immortal Dynasty."

As soon as he put his hand into the dark purple glow, the old man's face turned a few shades paler.

The Heaven-Returning Grand Formation was drawing his magical power.

It was drawing it wantonly, completely disregarding the old man's condition, the kind of draw that aimed to completely drain him in one go.

Feeling his magical power completely drained in just three short breaths, and the Formation still drawing his life Origin, the old man said with a bitter smile:

"After the Formation is activated, the Immortal Dynasty might not care who contributed their share of strength."

"But it will absolutely remember who did not contribute strength."

As he spoke, he looked again at the rain of swords falling across the sky, and at the ripples and cracks that appeared on the newly erected barrier when the sword rain struck it:

"Now that an otherworldly strong individual has invaded Great Yu, all we small fries can do is go with the flow."

"If the Immortal Dynasty needs our strength, then we give it to them, lest the Immortal Dynasty settle scores after winning."

"If the otherworldly strong individual wins, we will pledge allegiance to him."

"As long as we don't have second thoughts, and don't have the idea of living and dying with the Immortal Dynasty, such a strong individual probably won't care if we once served the Immortal Dynasty..."

As countless people in the Immortal Capital placed their hands into the dark purple glow, the Formation barrier, which had been tottering and cracking, instantly became incredibly firm.

"Using the Immortal Capital as the Formation, and all living beings as the Origin, to gather the power of all living beings to resist a powerful enemy?"

"A bit interesting."

"It seems like it could be used in the 【shanhe sheji tu】 (the map of mountains and rivers)."

In his thoughts, Yang Dian shook the star sword in his hand, and countless Sword Qi once again manifested behind him.

"Clang~~~"

Amidst the endless hum of swords, the long sword abruptly pierced into the Void Realm.

Inside the Formation, the Celestial Official Yu, who was presiding over the Formation, suddenly felt a constriction in her heart.

"No!"

No sooner had she spoken than she saw a sword tip emerge from the Void Realm, stabbing directly at her eyes.

Watching the sword tip suddenly appear before her eyes, the Celestial Official Yu's pupils sharply constricted, and at the same time, she formed a hand seal.

The Formation barrier instantly split into thousands, adhering to the Da Yu Cultivators and soldiers, condensing into an energy veil.

Watching the energy veil emit clanging sounds as it collided with the Qi and blood Flying Sword, Yang Dian subconsciously raised an eyebrow.

"It can be played like this too?"

In surprise, Yang Dian reached out and hooked.

"Fortunately, I have many methods."

As his voice fell, the Celestial Official Yu immediately sensed that the auras of a large number of Da Yu Cultivators around her began to dissipate.

Before she could check their condition, she felt something suddenly appear in her head, constantly churning, trying to crush her Divine Soul.

'How is this possible!'

Enduring the severe pain of her Divine Soul being crushed, the Celestial Official Yu controlled the translucent silk ribbons on her body to directly wrap into her head.

"Clang~"

Amidst the clash of metal, a handleless Flying Sword, no longer than 3 centimeters, was brought out of her head by the silk ribbons.

Looking at the handleless Flying Sword, bound by the silk ribbons and stained with a trace of blood, the Celestial Official Yu subconsciously trembled.

'When did this thing get into my head?'

As this thought arose, she also looked around at the Da Yu Cultivators who were slumped on the ground, completely devoid of aura.

Only fifteen or sixteen people were able to remove the Flying Sword from their heads, just like her.

"Your Excellency, who exactly are you?"

Turning her head, the Celestial Official Yu stared intently at Yang Dian:

"Why did you attack us so fiercely the moment you arrived?"

Yang Dian casually twirled his sword:

"Why so many questions?"

"I discovered your world, coveted your world, and want to obtain your world."

"Thus, I attacked you."

"The wars of civilization have always been like this, haven't they?"

"Are there few worlds and civilizations destroyed by you, or races massacred by you?"

As his voice fell, Yang Dian once again raised the long sword in his hand, and under the Celestial Official Yu's despairing gaze, he once again condensed a Sword Qi sky curtain.

Just as he was about to completely deal with the Celestial Official Yu and the others, Yang Dian's pupils suddenly constricted.

From the direction of the Golden Luan Hall, where the Immortal Capital's Heavenly Palace was located, a vast aura, like a great sun, suddenly rose.

"Insolent wretch, how dare you act so wildly in my Great Yu Immortal Dynasty?"
