Another Cliché Cultivation Story

Chapter 6

The battle started and ended in an instant!

Xia Lihua had gone all out right at the beginning catching Di Xiang off guard and unprepared. Worse yet, Xia Lihua seemed to know a Divine Art that stops time!

The Nether race was caught off guard. Di Xiang was the strongest among them and was supposed to lead them in this invasion. Unfortunately, in a blink of an eye, he lost!

The first to react was Di Wei, he was focusing on the battle the entire time and saw what happened from beginning to end.

All of you get serious and attack! Senior Brother Di Xiang is in trouble! He screamed.

The Nether races expression turned serious. They split into two groups, one group rushed to assist Di Xiang while the other group attacked the Ancestors, unleashing their Divine Arts. The Ancestors immediately became disadvantaged and a few even died in the first wave of attacks. It also didnt help that they were fighting right above the ocean. It was obvious the Nether race was extremely proficient at water Divine Arts!

Xia Lihua spread her spiritual sense throughout the battlefield, allowing her to see everything. Seeing the deaths of their Ancestors, her killing intent rose. Looking at the frozen Di Xiang and sensing over four dozen of the Nether race making their way to her, she quickly made a decision. She flipped high into the air and vertically slashed her leg down at Di Xiang! From afar, it looked like a meteor shooting down from the heavens. From up close, as her leg dropped, the space rippled, the clouds split and the ocean parted into two huge walls of water.

The moment she hit Di Xiang, she felt resistance from the sphere of water that enveloped him. The kick sent Di Xiang flying into the ocean with a big splash and his life and death were unknown.

Xia Lihua no longer cared about him and turned towards the group approaching her. She slashed her legs hundreds of times in a blink of an eye, sending piercing wind blades flying at them. At this point, Everlasting Ascension had worn off, her aura dropped and a stinging pain attacked her body, yet it did not dampen her will to fight.

Following the wind blades, she waited for an opportunity. Her eyes suddenly turned sharp and her body flickered. She appeared behind a Nether race member who was careless for a split second and stabbed forward with her bare hand, piercing through his head.

Even though her strength decreased, she was still a formidable foe! She flashed from person to person leaving mutilated bodies behind.

The battle raged on and the Ancestors were getting desperate. Half of the Nether race focused on Xia Lihua and the other half focused on them. The entire time they were on the defensive. The twenty-two Ancestors had been reduced to eighteen.

The only reason they didnt meet an immediate defeat is thanks to the assistance from their Holy grade artifacts and weapons while the Nether race was restricted from using theirs. They also couldn't use talismans, formations, and pills.

This was all because of the Universal Will. If anyone from the Upper World wanted to invade the Lower World, they could only do so with their cultivation lowered to the limit of that world and without the aforementioned external help. They could only rely on their cultivation method and Divine Arts with their effects reduced.

This was the protection given to the Lower Worlds from the Universal Will. If there were no constraints, the Lower World would constantly be in chaos.

At this moment, the Ancestors from the Southern Continent finally arrived!

No words needed to be said. Huo Honghui took the lead and made the first move. The others behind him also attacked! Weapons of various kinds flew in the sky, Divine Arts were used.

Explosions constantly erupted in the sky.

It was extremely chaotic! The entire Mortal Haven World shook. Every citizen of Mortal Haven looked in the direction of the chaos with horror in their eyes. Mortals hugged their close ones as they prayed while cultivators clenched their fists. They want to help but unfortunately, unless they were in the Holy realm, they would just be cannon fodders.

With the help from the Ancestors from the Southern Continent, they were able to fight the Nether race with just a slight disadvantage.

On the other side of the chaos, Xia Lihua was fighting about forty of the Nether race by herself! Utilizing a hit-and-run tactic, she managed to kill six of their experts. Her outfit was torn from top to bottom revealing a lot of skin.

Unfortunately, in this chaos, no one was free enough to appreciate her alluring body, that is except for one man who was relaxing in his chair.

Slash!

A sword beam imbued with black water caught her unaware as she fought and cut her in the back. She flashed and appeared a distance away. Swiftly checking her wound, she frowned. After fighting these people for so long she understood that the black water that they were wielding had qualities of death and decay. Her body's natural regenerative power was strong but it struggled to heal these injuries caused by the black water.

She channeled her Astral Essence onto her back to fight off the decay and only then did the wound slowly heal. Xia Lihua took a deep breath and exhaled. She glanced in the direction where the Ancestors were fighting. Seeing the stalemate, she relaxed.

Thanks to her bodys strong regenerative ability, the backlash from using Everlasting Ascension was now gone. She would use it again but her body may very well explode if she tried. Using it back to back in such a short period would increase the backlash on her body tenfold!

Maybe as a last resort. She thought.

Suddenly, she slapped her hands together with her fingers spread. She concentrated her Astral Essence and stimulated her blood.

Her fingernails grew longer, becoming something similar to claws. It looked like it was capable of slicing apart space. Silver scales grew from her skin, covering her arms first before continuing to spread. From her torn outfit, the silver scales could be seen covering all parts of her body. Finally, her neck, then her face. With her current appearance along with her long black hair and silver eyes, anyone would be in awe.

The Nether race chasing her stopped.

Their eyes turned serious and someone in the crowd muttered,

Dragonification.
