"Deploy the formations!"
For the Soul-Restraining Hall's assault, the Goddess had long prepared for many days. At this moment, she was not the least bit flustered by the shattering of the Moon Heavenly Curtain, calmly issuing orders.
Behind her, the powerful experts of Moon Hall swiftly took up their battle formations. Primarily consisting of Great Powers, Heavenly Kings, and other strong individuals, they assembled into one terrifying battle formation after another, erupting with terrifying divine light pillars.
The leading Divine Kings directly unleashed numerous divine abilities and spells, with Divine King Spirits dancing across the sky, bombarding the Soul-Restraining Hall's side, initiating a fierce collision.
This vast and mighty momentum made the various major forces, who had been closely watching Moon Hall's every move and had learned of the Soul-Restraining Hall's invasion, feel extremely fortunate they had not entered the range of this former Ancient Path Overlord's territory. Otherwise, being caught up in the battle between these two great powers would likely have ended in disaster.
While experts at the levels of Divine Kings, Great Powers, and Heavenly Kings from both sides clashed fiercely, the Quasi-Monarchs ascended to another plane, breaking through to the highest reaches of the heavens.
As Quasi-Monarchs, their level far surpassed that of Divine Kings, and their combat power could be described as world-shattering. A single move from them could potentially cause massive casualties. Therefore, both sides tacitly agreed to wage war in the vaster, highest reaches of the heavens.
"That little bastard, the Battle Saint King, hasn't shown up..." The Second Hall Master of Earth Hall frowned. Coming here now, he hoped even more to find the Battle Saint King and settle the score for the destruction of his origin world's heaven and earth back then!
The Goddess said coldly, "Dealing with you doesn't require my husband to take action. Otherwise, upon seeing him, you'd only have the option of fleeing in panic."
Hearing the mention of the events from three years ago, the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall's face gradually darkened. He looked down at Moon Hall's many Quasi-Monarchs, a terrifying aura spreading out and enveloping this stretch of the heavens, as he slowly said, "This seat is truly curious. Without the Battle Saint King, you dare to face me? Who exactly gave you this courage?"
The Goddess and the others felt a sense of suffocation. It had to be said, the gap between Quasi-Monarchs was still extremely vast. Although she had reached the late-stage Quasi-Monarch level and had cultivated her Monarch Rules to forty over the years, the gap compared to a Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch remained enormous.
Moreover, the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall was no ordinary Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch.
"Courage?" Wei'er, who had followed, chuckled, "Of course it's Liang Jingru!"
"Liang Jingru?" The Second Hall Master of Earth Hall was slightly taken aback, seemingly trying to recall who this so-called Liang Jingru was. But at that moment, Wei'er let out a strange cry, "Ten Brothers, hurry up and get on it! Form the Ten Heavens Battle Formation and slaughter this big lump!"
Boom—
Although none of the Ten Human Emperor Sons and Daughters were Quasi-Monarchs individually, by forming the Ten Heavens Battle Formation, they possessed astonishing capabilities rivaling a Quasi-Monarch.
Especially at this moment, utilizing an astonishing method, their power instantly soared to the Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch level. The Ten Emperor Sons and Daughters seemed to merge into one, transforming into a single War Emperor, wielding a war sword as they charged towards the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall.
Swish—
At the same time, Yu Qing also charged over. Her aura rapidly rose to an astonishing level, with a full eighty Monarch Rules manifesting on the surface of her body—twice as many as the Goddess. Combined with the Ten Heavens Battle Formation, a two-pronged assault directly confronted the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall.
Back in the day, Yu Qing was about the same as the Goddess. However, one must not forget that within the Four Extremes Vast Cosmos Great World, Yu Qing had obtained quite a few Monarch Rules. Over the past three years, she had completely refined them, making them her own, thus reaching a level close to a Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch.
She and the Ten Heavens Battle Formation joined forces, erupting with astonishing might. The combined power unleashed by both sides instantly reached a terrifying level.
The Second Hall Master of Earth Hall was greatly shocked, but being an extraordinary figure, he reacted immediately. Wielding his barbed greatsword, over one hundred and eighty Monarch Rules flew from his body as he fiercely collided with the two forces.
For a time, the combined strength of Yu Qing and the Ten Heavens Battle Formation actually managed to hold their own against the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall.
With them holding off the Second Hall Master of Earth Hall, Moon Hall's other Quasi-Monarchs breathed a sigh of relief, their pressure greatly reduced, allowing them to deal with the other Quasi-Monarchs of the Soul-Restraining Hall.
Simultaneously, Wei'er, the Corpse-Devouring Insect Emperor, and Shan Ji were not blindly following along either. Although none of the three were true Quasi-Monarchs, they were all at the pinnacle of the Divine King level. Possessing a special battle formation, their combined efforts could actually unleash power comparable to the Quasi-Monarch level.
However, it wasn't like the Ten Heavens Battle Formation, which could directly elevate them to the Great Perfection Quasi-Monarch level.
Their appearance managed to delay one of the Soul-Restraining Hall's Quasi-Monarchs.
Thus, the Quasi-Monarch experts from both Moon Hall and the Soul-Restraining Hall each had their opponents. For the time being, the battle reached a stalemate, with neither side able to gain an advantage over the other.
Below, between Moon Hall and the Soul-Restraining Hall, Qian Xun took the lead. Looking at the Soul-Restraining Hall's forces, which outnumbered their own, his expression remained unchanged as he shouted loudly, "Moon Hall's Soul-Annihilating Legion, heed my command! Primordial Battle Formation!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing the command from their young master Qian Xun, a group of over a hundred powerful experts immediately stepped forward from Moon Hall's ranks. The ten leaders were all Divine Kings, while the remaining ninety were Great Powers, all above the fifth heaven. This hundred-man legion assembled into a powerful battle formation.
Streaks of Great Dao light shot out from their bodies, swiftly converging in the heavens to form a massive formation diagram that covered the entire Soul-Annihilating Legion.
Within the battle formation, Primordial light was born, coalescing into numerous Primordial cannons, strikingly identical to the Primordial cannons on the surface of Moon God Mountain.
These Primordial cannons did not attack the Soul-Restraining Hall's forces. Instead, they dissipated once more, with all the Primordial light converging into one, transforming into a war halberd stretching a hundred thousand li long. It resembled a Chaos Supreme Treasure born from the Primordial, possessing a terrifying pressure capable of crushing the heavens and firmaments.
The Primordial War Halberd! "Go!"
The moment the Primordial War Halberd appeared, under the control of the Soul-Annihilating Legion, it carried the power to destroy worlds as it fiercely attacked the Soul-Restraining Hall's army.
Boom rumble rumble—
Wherever the Primordial War Halberd passed, everything turned to dust, the void shattered, and the Soul-Restraining Hall's experts were annihilated body and soul. Even Divine Kings were not spared, with four being slain.
The might of the Primordial War Halberd was terrifying to such an extent!
Qian Xun further erupted with his Saint Body's blood energy. Golden blood energy filled the nine heavens and ten earths as he, like an invincible golden war god, charged towards the Soul-Restraining Hall's experts. Wherever he passed, even powerful Divine Kings were merely opponents to be dispatched within a few exchanges.
In not a very long time, five or six Divine Kings on the Soul-Restraining Hall's side had been severely wounded, body and soul.
The blood energy of the Battle Saint Body was supremely yang and supremely pure, possessing a great restraining effect on the Soul-Restraining Hall's experts.
However, truly killing these Divine Kings would clearly require more time and effort. Therefore, Qian Xun did not attempt to do so. Moon Hall's Divine Kings would naturally step in to beat the drowning dog. Qian Xun's task was to incapacitate as many of the Soul-Restraining Hall's top combatants as possible, greatly reducing Moon Hall's pressure.
