99: Chapter 99 Immortal Soul Revival

"Ancestors of the Qian Kingdom, revive!"

"For the sake of our great cause, please return!"

...

Emperor Qian and the Sect Master of the Sword Sect chanted incessantly. The world-suppressing sword, which had evolved from the Tian Qiong Sword, hummed, and the auras of the dozen or so immortal souls summoned continued to skyrocket.

From within Qian Imperial City, various immortal treasures flew out. These treasures were not of as high a level as the Tian Qiong Sword or the endless sword, but they had been forged by these immortal souls. Sensing the presence of their masters, each one erupted with peak power.

At the same time, the body of the netherworld sword suddenly shattered. No one had attacked it; it had shattered on its own, breaking into pieces that floated toward the world-suppressing sword.

"Stop it!"

The immortals of the Xuan Kingdom felt an ominous premonition and attacked the fragments of the netherworld sword.

But they failed. The domain power of the world-suppressing sword covered the netherworld sword, weakening all incoming attacks.

Finally, the fragments of the netherworld sword attached themselves one by one to the world-suppressing sword.

Boom!

An inexplicably cold aura erupted. The national destiny domain of the world-suppressing sword became eerie, and the auras of those dozen or so immortal souls became unstable.

Boom, boom, boom!

An astonishing light erupted from the pupils of each immortal soul!

The netherworld sword had actually summoned back the self-awareness of the immortal souls!

"I have returned!"

One immortal soul spoke in an ancient language and reached out to summon a sword, which flew into his hand, causing his aura to surge instantly.

"My master's dying wish has yet to be fulfilled. Is this the reason we have been revived after death?"

Another immortal soul murmured. His origin was astonishing; he was the Sword Gods Disciple.

"My Sword Sect takes the protection of all living beings in the world as its duty. How could there be evildoers like you among us!"

Upon reviving, the immortal souls knew what had happened. One of the immortal souls revealed murderous intent, but this intent was not aimed at the immortals of the Xuan Kingdom, but rather at the Sect Master of the Sword Sect and Emperor Qian.

The Sword Sect was founded by the Sword God to slay demons and protect all living beings. This junior, the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, who had slaughtered the masses and created such karmic sin, naturally could not be spared!

"Die!"

This immortal soul was very decisive and moved to behead Emperor Qian and the Sect Master of the Sword Sect.

But just as he moved, the Sword Gods Disciple beside him also moved, slicing this immortal soul in two with a single strike.

"Heh... without the protection of our master back then, how could there be the living beings of today? What is wrong with demanding a little compensation from them?"

The Sword Gods Disciple sneered. At the same time, the aura of the netherworld sword enveloped the area, and the consciousness of this immortal soul quickly sank into slumber, turning it back into a combat puppet.

"What about you all?"

The Sword Gods Disciple scanned the other immortal souls.

"Regardless of what sins the Qian Kingdom has committed, it is not for outsiders to judge!"

The immortal souls stared coldly at the immortals of the Xuan Kingdom.

"Dare to offend our Qian Kingdom, and you shall pay the price!"

"Sword, come!"

An immortal soul shouted. The Sword God's personal swords present froze, and one of them fell into the hand of this immortal soul.

The other immortal souls also summoned immortal swords. The Sword God's personal swords were all summoned, even the void-breaking sword. Its blade trembled, and after resisting for a period of time, it was forced into the grasp of the immortal souls.

They were very strong, with power exceeding that of the immortal souls, but the immortal souls were all descendants of the Sword God and possessed the secret techniques to control the Sword God's personal swords.

Even though the void-breaking sword had evolved, it could not escape control.

The void-breaking sword, the heavenly thunder sword, and the endless sword were wielded by three powerful immortal souls.

Boom!

On the other side, an immortal soul voluntarily entered Kuns Illusionary Realm. This was a genuine immortal who easily saw through the illusion and walked out with the armor-breaking sword.

The sword formed by the combination of the world-suppressing sword and the netherworld sword hung high in the void, shrouding all the immortals.

"Strange, why is the blood-drinking sword nowhere to be seen?"

An immortal soul was puzzled. Of the eight Sword God's personal swords, the demon-slaying sword could not be used, and the world-suppressing sword and netherworld sword were maintaining their consciousness. There should still be five swords available!

The immortals of the Xuan Kingdom were very strong; having one more sword would increase their chances of winning!

"It was lost!"

The Sect Master of the Sword Sect below had a gloomy expression. This was a very shameful matter. It had always been them, the Qian Kingdom, seizing the treasures of others; they had never imagined that someone would steal their immortal treasures.

The blood-drinking sword was buried in the Sword God's tomb to pay homage to the Sword God, so that the tomb of their most brilliant and powerful ancestor of the Qian Kingdom would not be so shabby.

As a result, this oversight gave a thief the opportunity to steal the blood-drinking sword.

"Trash!"

The Sword Gods Disciple cursed, wanting to summon the blood-drinking sword, but he could not sense it at all.

"It doesn't matter. We are not within the territory of the Xuan Kingdom. Four swords are enough to kill them!"

The Sword Gods Disciple held his immortal sword, while behind him, the void-breaking sword radiated a type of energy. This was the power of the void-breaking sword; the Sword God's personal swords could imbue their own power onto other objects!

Rumble!

Thunder rolled, and a giant golden phantom sword appeared, with lightning constantly flickering.

The heavenly thunder sword, the armor-breaking sword, and the endless sword—the power of these three swords gathered together under the urging of the immortal souls, and the aura became terrifying to the extreme.

Finally, the sword slashed toward the nine-gold immortal-slaying shield.

The Sword Gods Disciple followed up with another strike. The power of the void-breaking sword was comparable to the combination of three of the Sword God's personal swords.

Clang!

The immortal light of the nine-gold immortal-slaying shield was shattered on the spot, and a sword mark appeared on the shield.

Perfected Zhong Chu spat out blood; merely a portion of the backlash power had already left him severely injured.

Seeing this, the other immortals of the Xuan Kingdom poured their power into the nine-gold immortal-slaying shield to maintain the shield's might.

"Awoo!"

A Tiger Roar sounded. The Old Mountain Lord of the Xuan Kingdom could no longer hold back and arrived on the battlefield.

The Mountain God Seal spanned the sky, evolving into a great mountain to defend alongside the immortal shield.

"Why did you come?"

Perfected Zhong Chu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the Old Mountain Lord.

The Old Mountain Lord was too old, and the next generation of Mountain Lord had not yet received the inheritance. If anything were to happen to the Old Mountain Lord, there would be no more Mountain Lord.

The Nine Great Lineages of the Xuan Kingdom would completely lose one of them!

"After seeing the power erupted by the netherworld sword, I think the inheritance of the Xuan Kingdom should not be broken!"

The Mountain Lord looked at the world-suppressing sword—or rather, the fragments of the netherworld sword covering the surface of the world-suppressing sword.

"The netherworld sword can awaken the consciousness of national destiny immortal souls; the consciousness of our Xuan Kingdom's immortal souls should also be awakenable!"

The biggest problem with the inheritance of immortal positions was that when the previous immortal died, there was no one to preside over the inheritance ceremony.

But if the consciousness of the previous immortal's soul could revive, this problem could be solved.

The Old Mountain Lord had always thought that after death, an immortal soul was just a tool; he never expected that it could revive long-lost self-awareness!

There was a huge difference between a conscious immortal soul and a tool immortal soul.

A tool immortal soul was just an immortal-level combat strength.

But a conscious immortal soul was a massive treasure!

The knowledge in its mind was enough to build a top-tier power!

Completing lost inheritances would also be a matter of course.

"The premise is that we must seize the netherworld sword."

Perfected Zhong Chu also understood the Old Mountain Lord's plan. In this battle, if the Old Mountain Lord participated, whether they won or lost, he would surely die, and his immortal soul would enter the national destiny.

The Mountain Lord inheritance would be broken!

But if they seized the netherworld sword, the inheritance could be completed. Moreover, if self-awareness could be revived, even if their Xuan Kingdom immortals died, it would not count as truly dying.

No matter what, they had to get that sword!

Rumble!

At this moment, the second wave of the Qian Kingdom's immortal soul attacks struck. The endless sword, the heavenly thunder sword, and the armor-breaking sword combined, while the void-breaking sword struck heavily from time to time. Under the pressure of three types of power—burst, area-of-effect, and penetration—the nine-gold immortal-slaying shield and the Mountain Lord Seal were tottering.

Perfected Zhong Chu and the Old Mountain Lord, who were controlling the two immortal treasures, were gritting their teeth and holding on.

Lu Hu flicked out two balls of pure Qi of Creation, shooting them into their bodies respectively.

"Can you hold on?"

Lu Hu asked. He intended to use Heavenly Immortal-level power.

Because once the nine-gold immortal-slaying shield and the Mountain Lord Seal were broken...

The void-breaking sword's power to travel through space would be enough to kill everyone except him!

"We can. Do not make a move yet!"

The Old Mountain Lord hurriedly said. If Lu Hu used his full strength, he would definitely scare the Qian Kingdom's demon-slaying sword into not coming out.

And there was the void-breaking sword; even if Lu Hu was a Heavenly Immortal, it wouldn't be easy to catch that sword, right?

Just thinking about having a sword with spatial powers lurking in the shadows in the future made the Old Mountain Lord feel terrible.

Hold on, must hold on. If the demon-slaying sword was scared away, combined with the void-breaking sword, the Xuan Kingdom would never have peace!

"Understood. Emperor Xuan is currently urging the world-suppressing seal; just hold on for a moment."

"Alright!"

Lu Hu nodded and continued to hide, only using lightning to strike the Qian Kingdom's immortal souls, reducing the pressure on the Old Mountain Lord and Perfected Zhong Chu!
