Following Yuan Yan Laozu's command, the cultivators of the Five Islands surged out of the Phantom City like a flood, charging towards the back of Mara's army.
Lu Ping, Chu Haitian, Chu Haizhi, Chu Haiping, and the others followed behind the Green Sea Snakes and the other great cultivators as they charged towards Mara's army.
This time, however, was different. After the battle with Mara, the humans and demons no longer faced the danger of being surrounded by Mara's army. Instead, they advanced step by step. While restraining Mara's army from attacking the Unfettered with all their might, they also tried their best to stay in line with the other ships that were surrounding them from the other four directions. While exerting the greatest pressure on Mara's army, they also forced Mara's army to slowly move towards the outskirts of the Five Islands of Phantom City.
Although it was said that they were advancing step by step, in fact, the moment the battle began, the great cultivators had already charged towards the Asuras. The remaining mid and early stage cultivators tried their best to find the hidden Blood Mara and Jade Mara within Mara's army. At the same time, they also killed a large number of ordinary Mara, so as to reduce the pressure on the Core Forging adepts that came later.
Behind the crowd, the Core Forging adepts behind the Dharma adepts finally charged over. At this time, after the Dharma adepts had "selected", the danger within Mara's army had undoubtedly decreased significantly.
In addition to the Phantom City cultivators launching a large scale attack, the Dharma adepts on the other four ships also charged into the Demonic Luo army to kill. This was especially so for the Dharma adepts on the Fu Rui and the Lei Jinghao. Although the Dharma adepts on the two ships had arrived the latest, they were the most powerful. With ten Great Adepts leading the charge, the overall situation of the humans and demons took a turn for the better.
Especially after the appearance of another Dharma Form, Laozu, the situation became more and more favorable for the humans and demons. Mara's army seemed to have sensed something and began to slowly retreat towards the southeast.
The appearance of the three Pure Yang Laozu attracted the attention of two Heavenly Demons and eight or nine Asuras, which greatly restricted the high-end combat power of Mara's army. In the level of great cultivators, over thirty great cultivators of the human and demon races were outnumbered for a moment.
Although it was not easy to achieve a result like killing an Asura in a short period of time, it was extremely easy to achieve a result when this favorable situation extended.
Several Jade Mara were easily killed by the great cultivators who were free, and some of the mid Dharma adepts also turned to deal with the Blood Mara, causing the entire situation to rapidly develop in the direction of the humans and demons.
After the incident where Tiankang Laozu was plotted against, Lu Ping did not use his full strength this time. He only began to hunt the Blood Mara on the periphery, and when he encountered the Jade Mara, he turned and retreated. From the beginning to the end, he did not use his avatar or the Aqua Sword.
Even so, after the initial chaos of the battle, Lu Ping had killed a Blood Asura and a Blood Demon. This time, Lu Ping was clearly lucky. When the Blood Demon died, its companion spiritual treasure did not explode along with it.
However, at this moment, Lu Ping's Divine Will moved, and a black figure suddenly appeared near the fallen companion spiritual treasure and reached out to grab it.
However, the moment his hand grabbed the companion spiritual treasure firmly, Lu Ping's cold snort suddenly exploded in his head.
Buzz!
The black figure's head felt like it was about to split open, and his whole body froze. It was at this moment that a gentle breeze swept past, and the black figure felt a chill on his arm. When he looked down, he saw that the companion spiritual treasure was falling towards the sea, and on top of the treasure was a severed arm that was firmly grasped.
"Ah!"
The black figure let out a shrill cry. He had just escaped from Lu Ping's Divine Will attack, but the pain of his severed arm once again overwhelmed all his senses.
A spatial crack appeared on the surface of the sea, and after the companion spiritual treasure entered it, the spatial crack immediately disappeared.
Lu Ping hovered in mid-air, facing the black figure whose arm he had cut off, and did not take any further action.
The black figure was a person completely shrouded in black clothes. Even with Lu Ping's Divine Will, he could not completely penetrate the black clothes that the black figure was wearing. He could only faintly sense that the person's aura was extremely strange.
Two black figures slowly appeared behind the black figure with the severed arm. The three of them and Lu Ping silently faced each other, and after a moment, the three of them suddenly flew backward and slowly disappeared into the void.
Lu Ping turned slightly and said, "Brother Chu, thank you very much!"
Chu Haitian appeared behind him out of nowhere, and said, "Even if I did not appear, these three people would not be a match for Brother Lu!"
Lu Ping asked, "Brother Chu, do you know where these three people came from?"
Chu Haitian's face was also full of doubt. He shook his head and said, "I don't know, I have never heard of these people. That black clothes seem extremely strange, and the aura around these three people is also very strange."
Lu Ping nodded. Although his Divine Will was tyrannical, and he had discovered more places than Chu Haitian, he still could not figure it out. He said, "I think these people must be the people who tried to plot against Martial Granduncle. In the Five Islands of Phantom, under the protection of the major sects and the three major tribes, there is actually such a hidden force that has not been discovered. I am afraid that the force behind these people is extremely powerful."
"Indeed, I will inform the elders of this matter. I think they will also be interested in this matter."
The other four treasure ships had already completed the roundabout turn, completely separating Mara's army from the Phantom City behind them.
The reason why treasure ships were the symbols of large sects was because they themselves were huge war fortresses, and they were even called the second foundation of the various sects floating on the sea.
When each treasure ship crashed into Mara's army, the power that erupted in an instant with the formation runes around the treasure ship as the foundation was close to a supreme divine ability. Moreover, the scope of the power was far from what a single cultivator could compare with. The entire area within a radius of three kilometers was the treasure ship's attack range.
Therefore, after the six huge treasure ships changed their formation, they still formed a formation with a distance of six kilometers between each treasure ship and attacked Mara's army on the sea surface. Every time the treasure ship's divine ability exploded, the area that was six kilometers in front and four kilometers in the left and right was almost empty of Mara's army. Occasionally, there were Mara who were lucky enough to survive, but they were immediately wiped out by the cultivators that flew out from the treasure ships.
The enormous power of the treasured ships, especially the power displayed after the formation of the six treasured ships, not only terrified the Devil Luo Army, but also shocked the humans and demons into speechlessness by the scene in front of them.
Lu Ping and Chu Haitian were working together to search for the Mara's army that had avoided the treasure ships. At this moment, a sound transmission magic sword that was specially used by Zhenling suddenly found Lu Ping.
Lu Ping was startled and hastily checked the content of the sword. It turned out to be a message from Daoist Master Xuan Xu.
In this battle, Zhenling had originally planned to deal with it passively. Although Lu Ping was nominally leading over ten Core Forging cultivators to participate in the battle, Lu Ping had always been fighting together with Chu Haitian and the others. Under the leadership of Daoist Master Xuan Xu, the sect's Core Forging cultivators were only intercepting and killing the scattered Mara not far away from Fantasy Spirit City. Once there was danger, they would retreat into Fantasy Spirit City.
However, not everyone was willing to accept the arrangement made by Lu Ping and Tiankang Laozu to protect their own sect's cultivators.
At this time, on the sea nearly a hundred miles away from Fantasy Spirit City, Xuan Yong, Xuan Feng, Xuan Ling, Xuan Heng, and Xuan Peng had joined forces to besiege a group of Mara who had escaped from the treasure ship's Killing Array. The leader was a blood asura, and there were only seven or eight Mara of different sizes. After escaping from the treasure ship's Killing Array, they were all badly injured and could no longer be considered a threat. Only this blood asura was unharmed.
"What should we do? Should we kill them or not? If we don't kill them, we'll let them go. I think this blood asura won't be stupid enough to entangle with us!"
Although Daoist Master Xuan Peng only had one arm left, he had clearly recovered from the dispiritedness of losing his arm. At this time, he had successfully advanced to the seventh layer of the Core Forging Realm. His understanding of array formations had also reached a new level.
Over the past year, the cultivators who had survived the battle with Mara had all made rapid progress in their cultivation. After Xuan Yong broke through to the ninth level of the Core Forging Realm, Xuan Feng followed closely behind and was now at the peak of the eighth level of the Core Forging Realm. Xuan Ling had also broken through to the eighth level of the Core Forging Realm some time ago. Although Xuan Heng's cultivation had not broken through, he was also at the peak of the seventh level of the Core Forging Realm.
The few of them had experience fighting against Blood Shura before, but that was only a tactic they used when they had no other choice. It was a strenuous fight, and the initiative was still in Blood Shura's hands. He could withdraw and retreat at any time. Now, the five of them obviously wanted to completely kill Blood Shura with their own strength.
Xuan Yong's cultivation had just broken through to the ninth level of the Core Forging Realm, and he was full of confidence. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of smoke, almost igniting the surrounding air, and shouted, "Let's do it!"
Xuan Feng did not speak, but the Spirit-Raising Flying Sword in his hand began to buzz. Obviously, he was very excited about this battle.
Xuan Ling said helplessly, "Fight, fight. Anyway, you'll be reprimanded when we go back. I'll take care of grandfather!"
Daoist Xuan Heng smiled bitterly. At this time, it was no longer important whether he objected or not. Even if he was not willing to take the risk, he would not leave his fellow disciples alone.
"That's good!"
Daoist Xuan Peng's hand changed continuously, and the formation plate of the simple Killing Array he had hastily set up suddenly exploded. Daoist Xuan Peng shouted, "Hurry up, this Killing Array has been overstimulated by me. Try to finish this before the power of the Killing Array dissipates!"
The flame spear in Xuan Yong's hand was already attacking the blood asura from the front. He shouted, "Don't forget that Junior Brother Tianping is killing the blood asura like cutting melons and vegetables. The gap is getting bigger and bigger. If we can't even deal with the blood asura now, then we're just a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
Xuan Yong's words seemed to ignite a long-hidden evil fire in everyone's heart. The attacks of the five of them suddenly went up a level, suppressing the blood asura trapped in the Killing Array in one fell swoop.
In the void in the distance, Chu Haitian smiled and said to Lu Ping next to him, "Brother Lu, it seems that your existence has put too much pressure on the senior and junior brothers of your sect!"
