Chapter 939: Decline of the Abyss, Opportunity Arises in the New World
Editor: Henyee Translations
The counterattack in the Western Sky Domain did not last too long.
Historically, the Eldars excelled in assassination and guerrilla tactics.
But now, due to Jiang Chengxuan’s Five Elements Samsara Domain blocking them, the Eldars were completely trapped, like turtles in a jar.
In this battle, Jiang Chengxuan hardly intervened; he merely maintained the Five Elements Samsara Domain, preventing any Eldar from escaping.
The rest of the battle was almost entirely fought by the cultivators defending the Western Sky.
They had waited too long for this day.
Since the Eldar invasion of the Western Sky Domain, over a decade of burning, killing, and looting had turned it into scorched earth.
Although they were eager to engage the enemy in battle, the cunning Eldars dragged on the conflict, eroding their strength bit by bit, never giving them a chance.
This left those defending the Western Sky extremely frustrated, yet helpless.
Given the chance, they would not hesitate to fight to the death, even if it meant all of them perishing.
The arrival of Jiang Chengxuan provided them with such an opportunity, and they were furious.
The cultivators defending the Western Sky Domain unleashed a decade’s worth of pent-up strength in this battle,
Every one of them is reaching their peak.
When the dust settled, without any surprise, the army of the Western Sky Domain completely annihilated the enemy.
Seeing the corpses of the Eldars strewn about, countless human cultivators shed tears of vengeance.
But when they turned to look for Jiang Chengxuan, they found he had already left.
Without lingering, having completed his task, Jiang Chengxuan, carrying the belongings of the Eldar Dao Master, flew towards the next domain.
In any domain that Jiang Chengxuan, a top-tier powerhouse undefeated under the Mahayana, joined,
The outcomes of the counterattacks were predictable.
Nearly every five days, with each domain Jiang Chengxuan visited,
He immediately altered the situation on the battlefield, ending the conflict within three days.
His reputation began to spread throughout the entire Celestial Floodgate Realm,
To the point where many forgot that Jiang Chengxuan was, in fact, still at the Dao Fusion level.
…
Meanwhile, in the new world.
A storm of counterattack was quietly brewing.
Since the day two abyssal demon Daolords were slain by an immortal treasure,
Some began to notice that the power of the demons invading the new world had suddenly weakened a lot.
Clearly, the direct fall of two Mahayana Daolords had an impact on the entire abyssal world.
Each Mahayana Daolord was, in a sense, part of the world; their demise meant the world’s Dao would be affected.
Under such circumstances, the abyssal demon territories relying on attacks against the new world began to shrink.
And the demonic qi emitted from the abyssal fortresses was diminishing exponentially.
Abyssal demons inherently rely on demonic qi for combat, marking their fundamental difference from other beings.
The reduction in demonic qi greatly weakened the abyssal demon army, more significantly than anything else.
Many abyssal demons are fallen beings from other worlds, thus, they constantly absorb the power of the abyss,
To maintain the demonic force of their Dao.
Now, as the abyssal power seeping into the new world began to decline, many abyssal demons could no longer draw upon the abyss’s power, leading to a noticeable decline in their combat effectiveness.
As days passed, more and more forces defending the new world noticed this change.
Even without the guidance of a Daolord, they gradually started plans to clear out the abyssal demons.
Countless squads of cultivators stepped out of their designated defense zones, beginning to probe into the territory of the abyssal demons.
Along the way, they distinctly felt the demonic qi’s invasion weakening, and the abyssal demons they encountered were no longer as fierce as before.
This undoubtedly hinted to everyone: the opportunity to counterattack had arrived!
Gradually, more and more teams of cultivators sent by various forces became larger and ventured deeper into abyssal territories.
And when they encountered the higher-level abyssal demons who had previously led invasions, seeing their no longer vigorous states brought immense joy to their hearts.
The abyssal world was in trouble, affecting even the high-ranking abyssal demons!
In an instant, such news swiftly spread throughout the new world, and all forces began to amass for a counteroffensive.
At this time, Jiang Chengxuan, who had just finished the domain counterattack battle, also received a summons from his sect.
The situation in the new world had changed, with anomalies in the abyssal world leading to a significant decline in the abyssal demons’ combat effectiveness.
The sect elders hoped that Jiang Chengxuan could assist in the new world’s battlefront because, during this period, his achievements in the counterattacks across the nine domains had been remarkably brilliant.
Jiang Chengxuan did not hesitate to accept this request.
As he and Shen Ruyan traversed the nine domains, the invasion of the Three Realms had been thoroughly crushed, with countless dead and wounded.
It can be said that the foolish dreams and ambitions of the Three Realms had been completely shattered,
And they would not have the chance to rise again for tens of thousands of years.
Although the Celestial Floodgate Realm also suffered heavy losses,
As the victors of the war, their recovery speed was incomparable to the defeated Three Realms.
It’s likely that within a hundred years, the Celestial Floodgate Realm would return to its peak with the resources brought by victory.
While the Three Realms, due to their defeat, were more likely to be caught in internal strife and reorganization.
At that time, the Celestial Floodgate Realm would probably completely control a region of the Tianling Realm.
Now, as long as they repelled the abyssal demons, the last step of the Celestial Floodgate Realm would be ready.
For Jiang Chengxuan, there was no reason to refuse such an opportunity.
“Let’s go.”
Jiang Chengxuan quickly returned to the Haoran Sect with Shen Ruyan, meeting with the elder responsible for defending against the abyssal demons in the new world.
Through this elder, they learned about the abyssal demons’ situation during the war over the past decade.
This included the distribution of demonic forces, information on several major demonic powers, and the distribution of their own combat strength, among other things.
This was where Jiang Chengxuan differed; no matter how much he was praised on the outside, it never made him lose his reason.
Even though his strength had grown significantly, he still maintained caution and steadiness.
From the beginning of his journey in this world to now, he never forgot the grandeur of this world,
Always aware that beyond the heavens, a slight misstep could plunge one into the abyss, never to rise again.
Thus, even with the battle situation being so favorable, he still came here to understand all the information.
“Elder Liu, we’ll be leaving now. See you again in the new world.”
A day later, Jiang Chengxuan bid farewell to the sect elder and quickly headed to the Haoran Sect’s position in the new world with Shen Ruyan.
Stepping into the new world, they saw the blood color in the sky gradually fading, revealing the familiar sight Jiang Chengxuan knew.
The years-long brutal war was finally showing signs of coming to an end.
