"Quickly restrain him, we can't let him continue like this." Xueqing looked at Xing Chen's current state and immediately spoke up.
"Divine Weapon Sealing!" Meng Xiner nodded, then waved her jade hand. An overwhelming chill suddenly emanated, and a strand of blue Thin Ice slowly appeared around them, instantly covering Xing Chen's figure.
"Divine Wind Chains!" At the same time, Xueqing also took action. With a wave of her palm, endless divine winds howled, and chains formed from azure hurricanes instantly bound Xing Chen.
"We must find a way to completely restrain him; we can't hold on like this for much longer." Meng Xiner and Xueqing exchanged glances, both understanding each other's thoughts.
"Knock him out!" Meng Xiner said, just as she was about to act. However, the Thin Ice covering Xing Chen suddenly began to shatter, and the Divine Wind Chains all snapped with a clattering sound.
"Ah—" Xing Chen let out a roar, his powerful aura surged upwards, causing the ground to tremble. Everyone below the Gaze of Fate was pressed down by this force, and even those who had reached the Gaze of Fate were forced to retreat.
At the same time, the Demonic Flame in Xing Chen's eyes burned fiercely, and terrifying energy continuously surged upwards. The Fate Jade Pendant on his forehead glimmered as streams of black power flowed into his body. It seemed that Xing Chen was about to break through the Bottleneck of the Merging Void Realm and reach the Heavenly Void Realm.
"What immense power! We must quickly restrain him; we absolutely cannot let him break through." Meng Xiner looked at the Black Jade Pendant on Xing Chen's forehead, her eyes revealing a hint of worry.
Punishment and Diviner had both warned her about this; the Fate Jade Pendant should not be used lightly. Now that Xing Chen was attempting to forcibly break through to the Heavenly Void Realm using the power of the Fate Jade Pendant, Meng Xiner naturally could not allow him to succeed. Otherwise, it would lead to great trouble in the future.
"Hurry, Xueqing Senior Sister, you restrain him while I break the Fate Jade Pendant on his forehead." Meng Xiner glanced at Xueqing and said.
"Divine Wind Chains!" Xueqing nodded and used Divine Wind Chains again, trying to completely restrain Xing Chen. However, with his sudden surge in strength, how could he be easily restrained?
Xing Chen was surrounded by a powerful Demonic Aura that prevented the Divine Wind Chains from getting close to him.
"This won't do; my Divine Wind Chains can't get near him at all!" Xueqing's expression changed slightly.
"What do we do? What do we do?" Meng Xiner's delicate face showed an anxious expression. Seeing that Xing Chen was about to break through to the Heavenly Void Realm made her extremely worried; if he truly succeeded in breaking through, it would be disastrous!
"Meng Xin'er, don't worry, there will definitely be a way to stop him!" Xueqing quickly advised upon seeing Meng Xiner's anxious expression.
Buzz!
At that moment, the Fate Jade Pendant on Xing Chen's forehead suddenly trembled, and with a powerful force, Xing Chen was about to completely reach the Heavenly Void Realm.
However, just as Xing Chen was about to break through, a flash of green light suddenly appeared around Meng Xiner. A green orb slowly emerged from her body, floating into the air, accompanied by a beam of Azure Light that shot towards Xing Chen's forehead. The Phantom of the Fate Jade Pendant instantly fell silent, and the rising momentum around Xing Chen also came to a halt at that moment.
Bang!
With the disappearance of the Fate Jade Pendant's Phantom, Xing Chen collapsed to the ground and fainted.
Seeing this situation, Meng Xiner let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she managed to stop Xing Chen from breaking through to the Heavenly Void Realm at the last moment; otherwise, who knows what would happen in the future.
"Meng Xin'er, I don't understand why you stopped him from breaking through to the Heavenly Void Realm. Isn't it good for him to be stronger?" Xueqing asked in confusion.
"Xing Chen being stronger is naturally good, but if he relies on the power of the Fate Jade Pendant to break through, then that's not acceptable. Let me explain this to you later," Meng Xiner said with a furrowed brow.
"Everyone, now that all the members of the Demon Sect have been eliminated, they definitely won't let this go easily. The second wave of Demon Sect members will surely appear here soon. At that time, we will probably face another tough battle. Therefore, we should concentrate our forces in the Sword Kingdom; it is the most suitable place for fighting against the Demon Sect where we can both attack and defend," Xun Hongyi spoke up.
"Yes, you're right. The Sword Kingdom is indeed the best choice at present," Yun Qing nodded in agreement.
...
Sword Kingdom Royal Family.
In a luxurious palace, Xing Chen lay quietly on the bed. He was currently unconscious and unable to do anything. He had been in a coma for a month with no signs of waking up.
During this month, the Demon Sect has been continuously sending people to gather information here. Fortunately, with Zhenque and Zhang Yunpeng, they managed to keep the Demon Sect's people outside the Sun Kingdom and did not allow them to enter the Eastern Region's territory.
However, the people sent by the Demon Sect are becoming stronger. The group that came yesterday was entirely composed of Gaze of Fate experts. If it weren't for Zhenque and the others' decent strength, they might have really struggled to hold them off.
"Xing Chen, when will you wake up?" Next to Xing Chen, Meng Xiner's beautiful eyes were filled with worry. Xing Chen had been in a coma for a month, and even his vital signs had completely disappeared. If it weren't for Meng Xiner and the others firmly believing that Xing Chen was not dead, Yun Qing and the others would have buried him long ago.
"Meng Xin'er, don't be too sad. I believe that Junior Brother Xing Chen will be fine," Xueqing comforted from the side.
"But he has been in a coma for a month," Meng Xiner said, tears shimmering in her eyes. During these days of Xing Chen's coma, she had stayed by his side without leaving, hoping that he would wake up soon. However, there were no signs at all that he was about to awaken.
And just like that, half a year passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, the Demon Sect invaded again, and the Sun Kingdom had once again fallen into their hands. Meanwhile, in the Eastern Region, several Inheritances had appeared over these six months. However, due to their ongoing battle against the Demon Sect, Yun Qing and the others simply could not spare any time to accept these Inheritances.
Moreover, this time the Demon Sect came with great momentum. Not only was the sect leader Demon Cloud personally overseeing things, but there was also the former sect leader, Demon Star, backing them up. The people of the Eastern Region could only watch as they struggled to fend off the attacks.
In the Imperial Palace Hall, Yun Qing and others were discussing matters regarding the Demon Sect.
"This time the Demon Sect is coming on strong; the Sun Kingdom has already fallen. It won't be long before we can't hold out against Sword Kingdom either," Yun Qing sighed.
The gap in strength between both sides was simply too vast, especially among mid-level experts. The opposing side had hundreds of masters at Gaze into the Five Realms level while they had only a few.
Furthermore, Demon Star was a peak expert at Merging Void Realm level. His immense power meant that even Xueqing could only defend against him without any ability to counterattack.
"It seems we will have to retreat to Sword Mound again," Xun Hongyi shook his head. Given the current situation, it was only a matter of time before they faced defeat.
"No, as long as we can obtain those Inheritances that have appeared, there is still hope to defeat the Demon Sect," Yan Haoxuan said with a glimmer in his eyes.
"That's easy for you to say; are those Inheritances so easy to obtain? Besides, do we even have time to think about Inheritances now? We can barely defend against the Demon Sect! If we divert our manpower to search for Inheritances now, it would truly be seeking our own demise," Yang Yu rolled his eyes and replied.
"It’s true that if that’s the case, seeking out the Inheritance would indeed be a dead end for us." Yun Qing nodded in agreement. At this critical moment of life and death, their manpower was already insufficient; splitting up to search for the Inheritance would almost be a suicidal act.
"No, it’s not that there isn’t an opportunity. Isn’t that Demon Star challenging our people to a duel? Since they are engaged in a duel, the Demon Sect’s attack on my Eastern Region will surely pause for a while. We can take this chance to enter the Inheritance and gain its power," Xun Hongyi said, his eyes flickering slightly.
"You’re thinking too optimistically. The Inheritance cannot be obtained so easily. To fully absorb the power of the Inheritance, it would definitely take several months. Do you think we have that kind of time at this critical moment?" Yun Qing looked at Xun Hongyi.
"Brother Yun is right. Even if Miss Xueqing can hold them off for a while, it certainly won’t be for several months, and that amount of time is simply not enough for us to fully acquire the Inheritance," Yang Yu nodded.
"But if this continues, we’ll only be able to retreat to Sword Mound," Yan Haoxuan said, lightly tapping his fingers on the table.
"Even if we can only retreat to Sword Mound, there’s nothing we can do about it. After all, we’ve already been here for a year; staying a bit longer doesn’t matter," Yun Qing said nonchalantly.
"Alright! It seems we can only leave it to fate. This time, with the Demon Sect's strength coming and going, our Eastern Region is really going to fall completely," Xun Hongyi sighed.
"It won’t be a complete fall. If Chen Er can wake up, with his strength, there’s still hope to resist the Demon Sect," Yun Qing slowly spoke.
"The problem is that no one knows when he will wake up," Yan Haoxuan pondered for a moment. If Xing Chen could wake up and use his strength against those people, it would naturally not be an issue. However, if Xing Chen were to sleep for several years or even decades, then it would be too late.
As they exchanged glances, each face revealed a look of helplessness. It seemed that this time, the Eastern Region truly could not survive this calamity.
