503: Finale
Lu Xingchen immediately rushed to the Righteous Path Alliance and handed the four Divine Artifacts to Ning Zhifeng.
Ning Zhifeng exclaimed, "I never thought that in just one year, you would advance to the Eight-Star Martial Saint Realm and gather the four Divine Artifacts. Now, besides The First Chosen One, I'm afraid no one in the Human Race is your match. Not even I!"
Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "That's not important. Alliance Master Ning, please perform the Nirvana Art!"
"Alright!"
After a day and a night of effort, Lin Wanqing's Soul body returned to her physical body and she opened her eyes.
When she saw Ning Zhifeng and Lu Xingchen, she was still a bit confused.
"Xingchen, Uncle Ning, why are you here?"
"I remember burning my life force during the Five Gods Duel and dying!"
Seeing the lively Lin Wanqing, Lu Xingchen's eyes reddened. Without saying much, he rushed forward and hugged her tightly.
Ning Zhifeng sighed, "This is all thanks to War God His Excellency. He gathered the Legacy Divine Artifacts of the four great races for you, helping me perform the Nirvana Art, bringing you back from the dead."
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing was greatly surprised. She quickly patted Lu Xingchen's back and softly said, "It's okay! Xingchen, haven't I returned?"
After a long while, Lu Xingchen finally released her. He caressed the stray hairs on her forehead and softly said, "You can't escape now! I've already asked Hall Master Zhong to be our officiant. You said before that anything goes on our wedding night."
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing's pretty face flushed, but she didn't deny it, only nodding slightly and humming softly.
"Mm!"
"I'm afraid your wedding will have to be postponed. Something incredible has happened!"
Zhong Ruiyi walked in from outside the door.
Lu Xingchen and Ning Zhifeng both frowned.
For the Hall Master of the Human Emperor Hall to be so serious, it must mean something big has truly happened!
"What happened?" The two asked in unison.
"Alien invasion!"
Zhong Ruiyi continued, "A giant teleportation array appeared in the northern part of the Tianyuan Continent. The Shura Race, the decision-makers from another world, have invaded with their entire race."
"According to the Shura Clan Chief Elder, their world, 'Crescent Moon Continent,' has become uninhabitable due to war. To ensure the continuation of their race, they are invading the Tianyuan Continent with the full might of their race, intending to eradicate us natives!"
Hearing this, Lu Xingchen was startled.
"What's the situation with the Demon Race?"
"The Shura Race is incredibly powerful. There are over a hundred Saints within their race, and their Clan Chief, Soul Herder God, has even reached the Peak of Nine-Star Martial Saint Cultivation. The Demon Race bore the brunt of the attack, losing more than half of their territory in just three days."
Lu Xingchen said gravely, "It seems our conflict with the Demon Race will have to be put on hold. Let's eliminate the Shura Race first!"
Zhong Ruiyi nodded heavily and said gravely, "Ning Mengqi has already initiated a Four-Race Conference, inviting the high-level officials of the four great races to attend and discuss a joint effort against the Shura Race. Should we attend?"
Lu Xingchen nodded heavily and said gravely, "Of course we should attend. Those not of our race are bound to have different intentions. The Tianyuan Continent is our home; we cannot simply hand it over to the people of the Crescent Moon Continent. Moreover, we need to maintain the initiative within the Alliance!"
The Four-Race Conference began.
Lu Xingchen, with his formidable strength, gained the recognition of the high-level officials of the four great races and became the Alliance Master of the Four-Race Alliance.
He achieved this through sheer power. The three Nine-Star Demon Saints of the Demon Race, The First Chosen One, and the two Nine-Star Yao Saints of the Yao Race were all initially unconvinced but were all defeated by him.
Immediately, Lu Xingchen appointed Ning Mengqi as the supreme commander of the three armies and launched an attack against the Shura Race powerhouses.
As the ground battle had just begun, the top combat forces of the Four-Race Alliance all flew towards the giant Teleportation Array.
As long as the array was destroyed, it would cut off the Shura Race's supply of troops, causing them to collapse without a fight!
Beside the Teleportation Array, the top combat forces of the Shura Race were also guarding it.
Including the Shura Clan Chief, the Shura Race had a total of six Nine-Star Martial Saints, one more than the Four-Race Alliance.
The Shura Clan Chief, Luo Lie, said gravely, "Lu Xingchen, right? A mere wet-behind-the-ears boy, does he even have the qualifications to be the Alliance Master of the Four-Race Alliance?"
Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "I always judge by strength, not seniority. Old fool, my strength will satisfy you!"
With that, Lu Xingchen took out the immortal slaying sword and unleashed the "Heaven-Slicing Sword Drawing Art."
With this one sword, he severed an arm of Luo Lie, who was at the Peak of Nine-Star Martial Saint.
Luo Lie's face darkened, and he said gravely, "How dare you sever my arm, Lu Xingchen! Once I defeat the Four-Race Alliance, I will torture you to death!"
Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "Try to survive first!"
With that, he drew his sword again.
Just then, Luo Lie consumed a Medicinal Pill, and his aura surged again, rising from Nine-Star Martial Saint to the Martial God Realm.
Seeing this, everyone was greatly shocked.
"What? Martial God? Our Tianyuan Continent hasn't seen a Martial God powerhouse in a hundred years!"
Luo Lie laughed heartily.
"Lu Xingchen, to force me to reveal my trump card, you are indeed quite a figure. How about it, do you feel despair?"
Lu Xingchen said gravely, "A dying man who barely Broke through to the Emperor Realm with Medicinal Pills is nothing impressive!"
Though he said that, he felt immense pressure in his heart. He quickly unleashed the "Heaven-Slicing Sword Drawing Art" again and also used "Jade Shatter," aiming to eliminate Luo Lie with one move.
However, his full-power strike was blocked by Luo Lie with a single hand.
Then Luo Lie gently sent out a palm strike, and Lu Xingchen spat blood as he flew backward.
The other five Nine-Star Saints attacked together but were also defeated by Luo Lie in one move.
Just as everyone was feeling despair, Dongfang Yuqing used his fourth chance.
His Realm surged dramatically, directly rising from Five-Star Martial Saint to the Martial God Realm. Then, he sent out a palm strike, heavily injuring Luo Lie.
Before he could continue his attack, a guiding light appeared in the sky.
Before his Ascension to the Divine Realm, Dongfang Yuqing whispered to Lu Xingchen, "Junior Brother Xingchen, I have heavily injured Luo Lie. He won't be able to recover his combat strength within a month. This is the last thing I can do for you."
"I have good news for you: the Evil God, through these years of interaction with me, has recognized my character and decided not to Possess me, but instead to pass on the Evil God's power and divine position to me. I'm going to enter the Divine Realm as part of the management!"
"But time is short, and I can't completely eliminate Luo Lie. The cleanup work is up to you! This time, I'm still betting on you to win! When you Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, we'll meet again in the Divine Realm!"
Immediately, Dongfang Yuqing stepped into the guiding light and entered the Divine Realm.
Lu Xingchen said with a wry smile, "Brother Dongfang, you just packed up and left, but you left a Martial God powerhouse for me. How am I supposed to deal with this?"
However, he was genuinely happy for Dongfang Yuqing, who had obtained a second life!
Luo Lie let out a roar.
"I never thought a Martial God powerhouse could appear on the Tianyuan Continent! But unfortunately, this guiding light appeared too early, and this boy couldn't completely eliminate me. Once I recover my condition, I will definitely eradicate all the Saints on the Tianyuan Continent!"
With that, he turned and left.
His five subordinates, all Nine-Star Martial Saints, surrounded the crowd.
Everyone escorted Lu Xingchen as they fled the area.
The Four-Race Conference was convened again.
The First Chosen One, God of Tianyuan, said gravely, "That Luo Lie has already become a Martial God, War God His Excellency. Do you still have a way to contend with him? Since Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin at Demon-Rejecting Pass, you have created too many miracles. This time, please create another miracle!"
Lu Xingchen nodded heavily.
"I want to try!"
The meeting ended, and everyone's view was that it was better to be Jade Shatter than a broken tile.
As Lu Xingchen walked out of the meeting hall, he was stopped by Luo Chen.
"War God His Excellency, my 'Profound Light Shadow Splitting' has no rank, and even Emperor Realm powerhouses can use it. I hope it can help you!"
Lu Xingchen nodded slightly and said gravely, "Thank you! Give me the "Three Talents Formation" as well; I can use it!"
Afterward, Lu Xingchen went to the Sacred Dragon Palace and the Dragon Clan, merging the two Dragon Veins into one and Sealing them within his body.
Then, he sought Zuoqiu Qingluo's help to predict the locations of the Immortal Trapping Sword and the Immortal Extinguishing Sword.
Xiao Yuxin had previously said that all four immortal slaying swords were scattered across the Tianyuan Continent.
If he could set up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, even a Martial God powerhouse would be enough to fight!
A month passed quickly, and Luo Lie actively attacked the headquarters of the Four-Race Alliance. The two fought again.
Lu Xingchen used the "Sacred Dragon Transformation," drawing power from the entire Dragon Vein to raise his own Realm to Ten-Star Martial Saint. He then used "Profound Light Shadow Splitting" and the "Three Talents Formation" to concentrate his power, temporarily reaching the Half-Step Martial God Realm.
But even so, he was still no match for Luo Lie.
There was still a significant gap between Half-Step Martial God and a true Emperor Realm powerhouse.
Immediately, Lu Xingchen, with the cooperation of Lin Xu, set up the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
Lin Xu controlled the immortal slaying sword, while Lu Xingchen and his two Clones controlled the Immortal Trapping Sword, the Immortal Extinguishing Sword, and the immortal slaying sword, successfully deploying the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation.
Just a single ordinary Sword Qi emitted by the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation split Luo Lie in two.
This great war, which affected the entire Tianyuan Continent, was brought to an end by Lu Xingchen!
After the war, Lu Xingchen finally fulfilled his promise and held a grand wedding with his two wives.
Everyone of some renown on the Tianyuan Continent contributed gifts.
Another ten years passed, and Lu Xingchen finally relied on his own strength to Cultivate to the Saint Realm.
A guiding beam of light descended, and many friends came to bid him farewell.
Lin Xu handed the immortal slaying sword to Lu Xingchen and softly said, "Junior Brother Xingchen, if you want to gain a foothold in the Divine Realm, the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation is indispensable. Let this immortal slaying sword fight alongside you!"
Lu Xingchen did not decline, accepting the immortal slaying sword. He kissed his two wives goodbye, then stepped into the guiding beam of light.
Divine Realm, here I come, Lu Xingchen!
