Chu Haitian's news shocked Lu Ping greatly. How long had it been? How could the sixth line of defense be broken?
Lu Ping was deeply worried. It wasn't because he was worried that something would happen to the five islands of Mystic Spirit City, but because according to what Old Ancestor Tian Kang had said, the seventh line of defense was actually less than a hundred miles away from Mystic Spirit City. Once the sixth line of defense was breached, Mo Luo's army would be at the city gates. The five islands of Mystic Spirit City would basically be surrounded by Mo Luo.
If that was the case, Lu Ping was now faced with two choices. One was to return to Jing Zhe Island immediately. But if he did that, Zhen Ling Sect's share of spirit stones in Phantasmal Spirit City would be lost. The other was to head to Phantasmal Spirit City and meet up with Ancestor Tian Kang. But if he did that, once the sixth line of defense was breached by the time Lu Ping arrived at Phantasmal Spirit City, he would have no choice but to defend Phantasmal Spirit City. He didn't believe he could break out of the Demon Luo Army's siege alone.
A layer of water rippled on Lu Ping's face. The water rippled gradually and gradually spread to Lu Ping's whole body. Then, a layer of water sprinkled from Lu Ping's body. Lu Ping had already returned to his original appearance.
At the same time, Lu Ping stretched out his wrist and took off a bracelet on his wrist. The surging Demonic Qi on Lu Ping's body suddenly changed into pure Spirit Qi waves. Then, it gradually converged, making Lu Ping look like an ordinary person.
The bracelet was naturally the Demon Transformation Bracelet. With this bracelet, a human cultivator could disguise as a Demon cultivator and would be extremely difficult to recognize. Similarly, when it was worn by a Demon cultivator, it would also be extremely difficult for a human to recognize it.
Previously, on a whim, Lu Ping decided to rescue Chu Hairen alone and let Tiankang Laozu rush to Phantom City first. However, just in case, Lu Ping still did not reveal his true identity.
Lu Ping's original intention was to get close to the Emerald Sea Spirit Snake Clan. But who knew he would meet someone like Chu Hai, who clearly had a high status in the Emerald Sea Spirit Snake Clan but wasn't a scheming person. Naturally, Lu Ping was more than happy to learn more secrets about the East Sea's forces from him.
Unfortunately, he met Chu Haitian midway and took Chu Hairen away, which messed up Lu Ping's original plan. However, at least he had left a backup plan among the Green Sea Snakes. Although Chu Hailan might be of help to him when he entered the Green Sea Snakes in the future, this woman was too shrewd. If Lu Ping wanted to use her, he might not be able to do so without paying some price.
A cloud of water mist gathered under Lu Ping's feet and gradually condensed into a white cloud. The white cloud moved with the wind and carried Lu Ping quickly in the direction of Phantom City.
The Thin Water Flowing Sword had been damaged twice in a row. Although it was not too serious, as Lu Ping's most commonly used magic weapon, it still made Lu Ping's heart ache. He had already placed it in the Core Space and began to nourish it.
Originally, it was not a bad idea for Lu Ping to use Lu Qin-er as a mount. However, since he knew that the battle in Phantom City would also involve the Human and Demon Clans joining forces, Lu Ping gave up on the idea of using Lu Qin-er as a mount. Who knew if he would encounter another Fire Phoenix Clan demonic cultivator on the way.
Lu Dagui could, but his speed was a little slow. It would be fine under normal circumstances, but not now.
With no other choice, Lu Ping could only use the Cloud Treading Technique to hurry along. The Cloud Treading Technique was an extension of the Wave Treading Technique. It was also an application of Lu Ping's Natural Great Technique. Although his speed was not as fast as Lu Qin-er's, it was still very fast for long-distance travel.
Although the Twelve Orthodox Techniques of the North Sea were twelve types of great magic arts, in essence, each great magic art itself was a huge inheritance system, from which several or even dozens of magic arts could be extended. This Cloud Treading Technique was an extension of the Wave Treading Technique.
In the end, Lu Ping decided to head towards Phantom City.
"Quick! Quick! The group of Mara is catching up! "
"D * mn it, how is that possible? Why would the Blood Shura attack us?"
"The Blood Shura is nothing. Even the Jade Shura has attacked. A Dharma adept from the Jade Sea Sect could not even escape. I saw with my own eyes that Laozu's heart was dug out by a Jade Shura and then swallowed whole."
"What, the Jade Shura is also …"
"Let's run. It's not just the Blood Shura and the Jade Shura. Even the Asuras have attacked. The entire Fallen Secret Land is in chaos. This time, the human and demon clans have suffered a great loss at the sixth line of defense. They are doomed."
"As long as we escape to the first line of defense …"
"The seventh line of defense? Hehe, now even the Jade Shura and the Asuras have begun to attack us Core Forging adepts. They think the seventh line of defense can still hold. We'd better go straight to the Phantom City. Maybe there is a glimmer of hope! "
"…"
"Not necessarily. If the great adepts of the Phantom City also attack, they may be able to stabilize the seventh line of defense!"
"Hehe, that depends on whether the big bosses are willing to help!"
"They will. Don't forget, the first five lines of defense are mostly made up of the local forces of the East Sea and the Fallen Mystery Land that are attached to the Phantom City, as well as the 25 medium-sized forces. But when it comes to the sixth and seventh lines of defense, there will be many cultivators from the Crystal Palace and the Nine Great Sects. Unless those big shots are willing to let their disciples become cannon fodder like us!"
"Not necessarily. Now that the sixth line of defense has collapsed, many practitioners from the big sects have been injured or killed. If they shrink back to the seventh line of defense, or even retreat to the Phantom City, then …"
"Then let's wait for death. From here to the Phantom City, we can't get rid of the group of Mara chasing us!"
Five or six human practitioners were flying over the sea, with injuries all over their bodies. Obviously, they had been through a fierce battle. At the same time, they were fiercely arguing about something.
Suddenly, several sharp howls rang out from behind the cultivators. The cultivators who were flying away immediately lost their ability to move and nearly fell into the ocean.
"Oh no, it's the Great Devil Cultivators!"
"They're catching up!"
At this moment, several lights of different colors rose up a few miles in front of them, heading toward them.
"Oh no, we're surrounded!"
"Why are there more in front of us?"
"Let's fight. Later, we'll break out of the encirclement with our own strength. If there's no hope, it's best if we can drag one of them down with us!"
The six practitioners at the late stage of the Core Forging Realm gathered back to back. In just a moment, more than 20 Mara surrounded them on the sea.
The leader of the Great Shura had rich Origin Qi all over his body. The Companion Magic Treasure in his hand was obviously only one step away from being promoted to a Spiritual Treasure. Looking at the six Core Forging Stage Cultivators in the center, the Great Shura's greedy eyes flashed with excitement. As long as he could devour the six Cultivators in front of him, with the huge amount of Qi, blood, and spiritual power contained in them, he might be able to break through the shackles and become a Blood Shura.
The Great Shura howled at the sky, and more than 20 Mara around it roared in unison and rushed toward the six practitioners.
At this moment, the surrounding seawater was turbulent, and the waves reflecting the sunlight suddenly turned into daggers, shooting toward the back of the 20 Mara who were besieging the practitioners.
Seeing that the 20 Mara were about to be drowned by the water swords, the whole space suddenly shook. These water swords suddenly turned into water splashes in mid-air and fell into the sea, like a rapid rain.
However, just as the raindrops were about to fall back into the sea, the surrounding space trembled again. The raindrops that filled the sky did not fall back into the sea but shot out abruptly. The dozen or so demons surrounding the south were caught off guard, and seven or eight of them had their heads, hearts, and other vital parts pierced by the raindrops. The remaining half were rolling and wailing on the surface of the sea.
The sudden turn of events caused the battle between the two sides to come to a temporary halt. The Great Asura in the lead cast a bewildered look around. Knowing that reinforcements had arrived, the six human cultivators who were besieged earlier hastily flew out from the encirclement.
Roar!
An angry roar suddenly rang out!
It was the Blood Demon!
The few human cultivators who had broken out of the encirclement were all pale, but they saw countless auspicious clouds suddenly rising in front of them. Although the Blood Demon's Soul Devouring Divine Art had shaken these people to the point that their heads felt like it was going to split open, not a single one of them died.
The auspicious clouds gradually dispersed, and a young cultivator was standing in front of them. More than a thousand feet in front of this young cultivator, a rolling black fog had also appeared in front of the remaining Mara.
For some reason, the two sides just stood there, and no one attacked. Although the six human cultivators could not sense the cultivation of this cultivator who had suddenly appeared in front of them, it was undoubtedly Fa Xiang Laozu who could stand against the Blood Demon.
Among the six human cultivators, the one with the highest cultivation was a peak Core Forging cultivator. With a thought, he hurriedly said, "Let's retreat first!"
With that, he flew back first. The other five cultivators also seemed to wake up at this moment, and they hurriedly followed. However, they heard The Friar say to the young cultivator, "Senior, the sixth line of defense has collapsed. The Mara's army is large-scale encirclement and suppression of the human and demon cultivators who have fled. We can't stay here for long!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young cultivator suddenly stretched out his hand and flicked his finger. Dozens of water snakes suddenly sprang up from the seawater under the Blood Demon's feet and entered the rolling poisonous fog.
The poisonous fog immediately began to churn, and the poisonous fog that was originally three meters wide began to shrink rapidly. It seemed that the dozens of water snakes could wear down the poisonous fog around the Blood Demon.
At this moment, a shrill cry suddenly came from within the poisonous fog. The dozens of water snakes suddenly burst out of the poisonous fog, but their bodies were covered in a layer of black fog, and they counterattacked in the direction of the young cultivator.
The cultivator stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and the dozens of black water snakes that rushed towards him suddenly exploded in mid-air. The thick black fog dispersed and then dissipated in mid-air.
However, there were also several black snakes that bypassed the cultivator in front of him and shot towards the six cultivators behind him.
The human cultivators were all shocked, and in a fluster, they did not know how to block this strange attack. Suddenly, they heard a crisp cry above their heads. A golden-winged Peng was hovering above them, and at this moment, it swooped down and easily tore the black water snakes into pieces with its sharp claws.
