In the mountain gate of Qingyun Men.

    The Left Protector of the Heavenly Way Alliance, Feng Xing, led a group of strong-willed individuals.

    After they broke through the Qingyun Men's Mountain Defense Array, they were about to rush into the Qingyun Men.

    "The Heavenly Path Alliance has immense audacity! To dare to come to my Qingyun Men and act lawlessly! You are truly not knowing who you are dealing with!"

    At this time, a terrifying aura suddenly emerged from within.

    This aura was as vast as a tsunami, spreading out in all directions!

    The cultivators of the Heavenly Path Alliance were at a loss, their faces filled with panic, and they were all pushed back several steps by this aura!

    Lin Qi, along with several senior elders of the Heavenly Path Alliance, appeared at the mountain gate.

    "You finally appear, Lin Master! Hand over Qin Feng immediately!"

    "If not, the Heavenly Path Alliance will definitely have your Qingyun Gate bathed in blood!"

    Feng Xing loudly shouted.

    Upon hearing this, Lin Qi remained completely composed: "Feng Xing, you're merely a subordinate Left Protector of the Heavenly Path Alliance. How dare you come here and challenge me? You don't even compare to your alliance leader, Zhong Feng. Even if he came himself, I, Lin Qi, have nothing to fear!"

    It was Feng Xing this kid who played dirty tricks in the last joint contest of all sects, which is why they defeated the disciples of Qingyun Men!

    Upon thinking of this, Lin Qi and several senior elders of Qingyun Men became furious!

    "Tell the truth to you!"

    "Let me tell you the truth!" "Qin Feng is within our Qingyun Men, and Qingyun Men will protect Qin Feng!"

    "If you want to take him away from our Qingyun Men, it'll depend on whether you have the strength here."

    "I've long been dissatisfied with the Heavenly Path Alliance. They commit evils and take lives lightly, which is truly shameful for those who practice immortality."

    These elders spoke with great conviction.

    Feng Xing's face was filled with anger. He never expected the Qingyun Men to be so fearless and dare to confront the Heavenly Path Alliance.

    Feng Xing's brow furrowed, his eyes filled with a chilling gaze. He looked at Lin Qi and said, "Lin Master, have you thought it over? To start a war between two great sects for Qin Feng is it worth it?"

    "Moreover, if Qingyun Men wants to fight with our Heavenly Path Alliance, you'd better weigh your strengths! I've heard that your Supreme Elder Sun Hang has gone berserk, slaughtering sect disciples and elders. Without him, Qingyun Men cannot be our Heavenly Path Alliance's match!"

    Upon hearing this, Lin Qi's eyes burned with determination.

    He was so angry that he trembled all over, not expecting that the Heavenly Path Alliance's information sources were so extensive, and now they knew about Sun Hang's hidden illness.

    Taking advantage of your illness to take your life is exactly the kind of despicable sect the Heavenly Path Alliance always is.

    "So what? Even without Elder Sun Hang, our Qingyun Sect doesn't fear your Heavenly Path Alliance!"

    "This is precisely the principle that righteousness and evil cannot coexist!"

    "What you have done in the Taihuang Holy Land has long invited the wrath of heaven and the resentment of people."

    "Our Qingyun Men will certainly be on opposite sides with you!"

    After Lin Qi spoke, the elders of Qingyun Men were all prepared to make a move.

    Feng Xing clicked his tongue and said, "You don't know how to appreciate good fortune. Since you refuse to hand over Qin Feng, don't blame us for being impolite!"

    "Form the array!"

    Upon Feng Xing's command, the strongmen of the Heavenly Path Alliance immediately began to channel their energy. With their long swords in hand, they formed an enormous sword array!

    As the Left Protector of the Heavenly Path Alliance, Feng Xing served as the core of the array!

    "Kill them!"

    With Feng Xing's order, they immediately unleashed the sword array upon them, with the sword energy swirling and causing chaos.

    Sword energy after sword energy, like shining meteorites, dispersed!

    "Defend yourselves!"

    Lin Qi and the elder sect members of Qingyun Men leaped into the air, charging towards the lethal array!

    Suddenly, two terrifying forces collided together!

    The sounds of heaven collapsing and earth cracking echoed around, with cracks emerging one after another!

    The sword array formed by Feng Xing and the strong disciples of the Heavenly Path Alliance was flawless, with every sword energy attack targeting a vital point!

    Wave after wave of sword energy emitted a sword shadow, with the power of the sword energy comparable to that of a great sun disk rapidly falling down.

    With just one strike, the sword energy swiftly attacked, igniting fiery flames of red.

    The elders of Qingyun Men were all swept away by the sword energy attack!

    The sword energy swept past, unleashing a ten-thousand-zhang sword aura. The elders of Qingyun Men were all overwhelmed!

    Lin Qi was pushed back several steps by the terrifying sword energy, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth. His face was filled with pain.

    "Damn it! If it weren't for stopping the Supreme Elder just now, our forces would have been greatly weakened, and we'd be in such a sorry state."

    Lin Qi gritted his teeth and said.

    "Hahahaha! Lin Qi, you're truly ungrateful. Do you know what the Heavenly Path Sword Formation is?"

    "You, a tiny Qingyun Men, trying to withstand the Heavenly Path Sword Formation, is truly laughable!"

    Feng Xing's face was filled with deranged laughter.

    Holding his chest, Lin Qi's eyes widened as he heard the words "Heavenly Path Sword Formation."

    The Heavenly Path Sword Formation is a Seventh-Tier Sword Array. To form such an array, at least twelve extraordinary sword cultivators are required to concentrate their spiritual energy!

    If not, the sword array would retaliate and could even annihilate one's essence and soul!

    Once twelve cultivators with extraordinary sword skills master the Heavenly Path Sword Formation, the array's power would be devastating and earth-shattering!

    "Lin Master, do you still want to continue fighting? Your trivial sword cultivation is of no consequence to me!"

    "Hand over Qin Feng as quickly as possible!"

    Lin Qi's body trembled, and a terrifying aura spread out.

    Around Lin Qi, wild and explosive flames rose, and his eyes turned an inferno red.

    "Master... it seems like you are about to unleash the Heaven-Breaking and Earth-Shattering technique!"

    "This is the only Seventh-Tier Excellent technique in our sect!"

    "To use this technique, one must burn their life force, otherwise, they will not be able to reach its peak!"

    The elders of Qingyun Sect were all taken aback.

    They could not have predicted that Lin Qi would unleash the Heaven-Breaking and Earth-Shattering technique at this critical moment!

    The release of Tianbian Dìlie instantly unleashed raging winds and spread a terrifying aura field behind him.

    This aura field was so vast and immense that it seemed to ignite everything around.

    Lin Qi actually rushed forward with the terrifying aura field, creating a thunderous boom that echoed like a vast world.

    Bang!

    The immense power of Tianbian Dile collided with the Heavenly Path Sword Formation!

    A burst of explosive breath surged forward, quickly spreading to both sides, creating a swirling cloud of dust, and the sound of earth-shattering and mountain-collapsing echoed.

    In such turmoil, the Qingyun Men mountain gate trembled as if it were about to crumble.

    The Heavenly Path Sword Formation shattered, and Feng Xing of the Heavenly Path Alliance and the other sword cultivators were knocked back, lying on the ground in disarray.

    Each person had blood stains on their lips.

    Lin Qi was also injured, and the aura he emitted was clearly much weaker.

    "Master!"

    At this moment, several elders of Qingyun Men rushed forward and immediately assisted Lin Qi.

    Feng Xing was infuriated and glared at Lin Qi: "For Qin Feng, you dared to burn your own essence and blood to confront the Heavenly Path Alliance's Heavenly Path Sword Formation. You are too reckless with your life!"

    "As long as I, Lin Qi, have one breath left, I will never let you guys succeed!" Lin Qi gasped.

    Qin Feng is crucial to the future of Qingyun Men, and Lin Qi will absolutely ensure his safety.

    As long as they can restore the Supreme Elder, Qingyun Men has nothing to fear from the Heavenly Path Alliance.

    "Alright, you wait. We will definitely report this to the Alliance Master and have him punish your Qingyun Men. The Heavenly Path Alliance will not rest until then!"

    After Feng Xing and the rest of the Heavenly Path Alliance sword cultivators spat their vile words, they left.
