Chapter 2124: Chapter 1108: Immortal Energy_2

Inside the Grotto Heaven, the changes were even more obvious. The Cave Heaven Core kept swallowing and exhaling energy; the amount of “Chaos Energy” was getting less and less, while the energy carrying the aura of the Immortal World was getting more and more.

He called this energy with the Immortal World’s aura “Immortal Energy”. He didn’t know whether those Cultivators who had absorbed “Immortal’s Qi” before had the same situation as he did.

His current strength was more than ten times greater than before. The only drawback was that the Cave Heaven Energy had once again decreased.

The ratio between “Chaos Energy” and “Immortal Energy” was ten to one—ten portions of “Chaos Energy” were needed to convert into one portion of “Immortal Energy”.

He had only just advanced to Great Immortal Envoy not long ago, and the energy within the Grotto Heaven was already down to one tenth of the Great Immortal Envoy-level “Chaos Energy”.

Now, after another round of condensation, the Cave Heaven Energy shrank by another tenth on the basis of that one tenth.

Fortunately, the energy produced inside the Cave Heaven Core was also “Immortal Energy”. As long as he had enough time, there would come a day when the “Immortal Energy” inside the Grotto Heaven was fully replenished.

Li Shiming was in secluded cultivation, while the outside world had gone mad.

The Falling Immortal Formation sounded the alarm, and the message transmitted to the Immortal Alliance left the four Great Immortal Envoys greatly shocked.

Li Yuanba was the first to receive the alarm, and the other three Great Immortal Envoys received it at the same time as he did. Such a major warning had to be sent to the Great Immortal Envoys of all four factions simultaneously.

He saw the content of the alarm—it said five Great Angels had emerged from the Divine Domain, and the Falling Immortal Formation had sensed the aura of the Great Angels.

Moreover, this invasion led by five Great Angels completely ignored the Immortal Residences at the front line.

Instead, they bypassed the Immortal Residences and charged straight into the depths of the Immortal Domain, heading directly toward the Immortal Alliance headquarters.

Immediately after, Li Yuanba received a message from Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu. He rushed to one of the Immortal Alliance’s mountain peaks, where the other three Great Immortal Envoys had already arrived.

“Yuan Ba, you’ve received the alarm as well?” Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu asked anxiously.

It wasn’t just Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu who was tense; the faces of the other two Great Immortal Envoys also looked grim.

This incursion by the Divine Domain’s Great Angels was undoubtedly stirred up by Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin’s ascension.

They just hadn’t expected the Divine Domain to launch a full-scale invasion, instead of, like before, carrying out some probing actions after an ascension.

An attack by five Great Angels—that was an all-out decisive battle.

The outcome would determine the fate between humanity and the Divine Domain. If the Immortal Domain side won, human Cultivators would maintain the current situation; if they lost, human Cultivators would retreat step by step, perhaps even lose the Immortal Domain.

If the Immortal Domain really fell, the Divine Domain could directly enter humanity’s Cultivation Land; at that time it would be an immense catastrophe.

“I’ve received it. Five Great Angels are invading!” Li Yuanba nodded and replied.

“If Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin were still here, we would still have some confidence in dealing with five Great Angels!” one Great Immortal Envoy said in a deep voice.

He looked at Li Yuanba and Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu, and a helpless look flashed in his eyes.

If only one Great Immortal Envoy were a newly advanced Great Immortal Envoy, the situation wouldn’t be the worst.

But the fall of Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui and the ascension of Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin had left the Immortal Alliance’s Great Immortal Envoys at their weakest combat power.

This time, the Divine Domain’s assault had struck right at the Immortal Alliance’s most vulnerable soft spot.

Of course, if it weren’t for a Six-winged Angel suddenly appearing out of nowhere on the Divine Domain side, making that Six-winged Angel somewhat uneasy…

This Six-winged Angel had been constantly considering probing the Immortal Alliance to see whether there was any sign of a Six-winged Angel on their side.

If there was no sign of a Six-winged Angel, then the Divine Domain’s Six-winged Angel could greatly damage the Immortal Alliance’s strength; and when he returned, he could confidently support the Divine Fire, breaking through the void to become a god.

“Yuan Ba, can we ask Li Shizhen and Li Taibai to take action?” Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu asked.

“Yes, this battle concerns the safety of humanity. Please, Mr. Li, explain the stakes to the two Great Immortal Envoys!” another Great Immortal Envoy followed up.

Right now, the only way to make up for the Immortal Alliance’s insufficient Great Immortal Envoy combat power was by relying on Li Shiming and Li Taibai, these two Great Immortal Envoys.

Li Yuanba and these two Great Immortal Envoys were close friends, and this time, they were fighting for the life and death of mankind.

“Li Taibai can take the field. Li Shizhen is in closed-door cultivation and cannot be disturbed!” Li Yuanba answered in a low voice.

“Can’t we have him break his seclusion and come out?” one Great Immortal Envoy asked urgently.

When matters are this dire, expediency takes precedence. They had many Great Immortal Envoys this time, but their strength was too weak. Even if Li Taibai took part, that would still only be two veteran Great Immortal Envoys and three newly advanced Great Immortal Envoys.

The Divine Domain had sent five Great Angels. The chances of defeating those five Great Angels with their current combat power were too low.

“I said he cannot be disturbed. When Li Shizhen is able to come out of seclusion, he will naturally join the battle!” Li Yuanba insisted.

At this point, that Great Immortal Envoy didn’t continue to persuade. Whether Li Shiming joined or not was Li Shiming’s own freedom. If they pushed too hard, even Li Taibai might refuse to participate.

The four Great Immortal Envoys flew out of the Immortal Alliance, heading toward the direction of the five Great Angels.

At that moment, Li Taibai’s figure joined the four Great Immortal Envoys. After sensing the aura on Li Taibai’s body, the other Great Immortal Envoys, including Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu, felt their worries ease slightly.

Of the five Great Immortal Envoys dispatched this time, although three were newly advanced, among those three, two were Sword Cultivating Immortal Envoys and one was a Thunder Cultivator Immortal Envoy. In pure combat power, they were absolutely the strongest existences among newly advanced Great Immortal Envoys.

That was misfortune within fortune. The five Great Immortal Envoys began to discuss tactics.

When the five Great Immortal Envoys and the five Great Angels were about to meet, both sides simultaneously slowed down. Once they reached a certain distance, they faced each other from afar.

“Watch out for the Six-winged Angel—his combat power is the strongest. I’ll hold him off; you all must finish your own opponents as quickly as possible!” The Northern Great Immortal Envoy spoke bitterly when he saw the Six-winged Angel.

From his words, one could tell he had little confidence in his own combat strength.

He couldn’t be blamed. Great Immortal Envoy Feng Jin and Great Immortal Envoy Feng Kui were the two stronger ones among the four Great Immortal Envoys. Now that both were gone, only he could step up.

“Can you two block the Four-winged Great Angels?” The Western Immortal Envoy asked Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu and Li Yuanba.

In his view, as long as Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu and Li Yuanba could each hold off one Four-winged Great Angel, he could go all out to kill one Double-winged Great Angel, and then move on to assist the other Great Immortal Envoys.

“Leave the two Four-winged Great Angels to me. You and Li Taibai focus on killing the Double-winged Great Angels!” Beyond the Western Immortal Envoy’s expectations, Li Yuanba stepped forward and volunteered.

“Yuan Ba, think this through. This is not a joke!” Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu hurriedly reminded him.

At this level of battle, there was no room for any bluffing. Once the fight truly started, at least in the initial stage of engagement, no one would be able to help anyone else.

“Relax, I’m not going to risk my life as a joke!” Li Yuanba said with a confident smile.

If Great Immortal Envoy Jian Feiyu had carefully probed, he would have discovered that the “Chaos Sword Intent” within Li Yuanba’s body was surging wildly.

Because Li Shiming’s main body had grasped “Immortal Energy”, a higher-quality energy, his understanding of “Chaos Sword Intent” had deepened considerably.

Although he hadn’t officially advanced, in reality there was little difference from an advancement.

After his physical body, Spirit, and Cave Heaven Energy had all undergone tremendous enhancement, the core rules within his Grotto Heaven had naturally risen accordingly.

On top of that, with IBMz15’s involvement, the normal time needed to comprehend the core rules—from several hundred years—was shortened to an extremely brief span.

Since Li Yuanba was about to fight a great battle, Li Shiming prioritized enhancing the “Sword Intent Rule”, boosting the power of “Chaos Sword Intent” first.

This was also the source of Li Yuanba’s confidence in facing two Four-winged Great Angels. He was practically improving every single moment.

His other confidence came from the ten thousand Energy-converted Flying Swords within his Grotto Heaven, which meant he had no need to fear facing multiple enemies. No matter how many enemies there were—as long as their number wasn’t absurdly large—those ten thousand Energy-converted Flying Swords could become the nightmare of the enemy.
