Just as the great cultivator finished speaking, a cold snort came from the void. "How troublesome!"
When the voice rang out, Tian Xue and Tian Xue's hearts seemed to have fallen into an icehouse. The other party actually had a great cultivator hiding in the surroundings.
As for why this person hadn't appeared, Laozu and Tian Xue knew very well. That was because there were dozens of different cultivators' divine senses in the surroundings of Zhenling's encampment. The time since Zhenling was attacked was long enough to attract cultivators from other sects to investigate.
However, these people didn't help Zhenling. Therefore, Zhenling was almost certain that these people were from a large sect in Middle Earth. The cultivators from other sects had also sensed or suspected their identities. However, none of them dared to step forward and offend this large sect that was targeting Zhenling.
After all, Zhenling was an overseas sect. Moreover, it was a sect that had always been criticized in North Sea's cultivation world. To most of the sects in Middle Earth, Zhenling was an anomaly. Naturally, they wouldn't offend another large sect for Zhenling's sake. On the contrary, they were happy to see Zhenling, a middle-sized sect that didn't know what was good for them, become a joke.
However, they couldn't go too far. After all, Zhenling was trying to encircle and annihilate Mara's army. He had a righteous cause. Not to mention that this large sect was taking advantage of the situation, they even sent out two great cultivators to seize the encampment of a middle-sized sect that didn't even have a great cultivator. This was already somewhat unreasonable.
Under such circumstances, they couldn't do anything to the other party. Now, they sent out a third great cultivator. This was blatantly shameless. It was very likely to arouse the disgust of everyone. If they were to unite against a common enemy, it would be the same as shooting a rock and dropping it on their own feet.
The third great cultivator was well aware of the twists and turns in this matter, so he was originally extremely unwilling to get involved. Even if he managed to expel Zhenling, his sect would definitely become the laughingstock of the entire cultivation world. However, the current situation made it difficult for him to back down, because the longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for them.
This was especially so for the third-generation adept from the North Sea sects. Even Zhou Donghuang himself did not have the slightest confidence that he would be able to defeat this person. Furthermore, the mid Dharma adept with the second-level spirit treasure was not easy to deal with either. If they returned in time and gave up on this base, and instead went all out to fight the three of them, then the three of them would be the ones who would suffer.
After Zhenling had successfully expelled the Houtu Sect, they had tried their best to estimate Zhenling's strength. However, in the end, they realized that they had still underestimated this medium-sized sect from the North Sea. This time, they had not underestimated the strength of their experts, but the unity of the entire Zhenling!
Dozens of miles away, above the Qing Ming River, countless mummified Mara corpses fell from the sky like dumplings, splashing water on the surface of the Qing Ming River.
Lu Ping stood alone in the sky above the Qing Ming River. Within a three-mile radius around him, none of the smaller Mara could escape the destruction of this spell. There were more than ten Blood Mara, and only four Blood Demons were hiding in a safe zone that Asura had fought hard to secure from Lu Ping's spell.
In this safe zone, there were still three Jade Shuras and one Jade Demon. The other two Jade Shuras and one Jade Demon did not have time to hide in the safe zone that Asura had fought so hard to secure.
The Jade Shura that had rushed towards Lu Ping had tried to use the strange spell that Lu Ping was casting, but before it could reach Lu Ping, its entire body had already begun to wither. By the time it had reached Lu Ping, its strength had already been reduced to fifty to sixty percent. Lu Ping had just used the Thin Water Flowing Sword to gently twist the Jade Shura into pieces.
The other Jade Shura was also heavily injured, but it was still able to survive the attack of Lu Ping's miraculous spell. At the same time, the three Blood Mara had survived.
The Jade Demon was not so lucky. It had the same plan as the other Jade Shura. It wanted to use the Soul Eater spell to damage Lu Ping's will, and then break free from Lu Ping's control of the space. But the Soul Eater spell did not do anything under the protection of the Cloud Sail. On the contrary, it was hit by Lu Ping's will, which was even stronger than before. Then, an invisible soul fire burned the Jade Demon, and it screamed. It could no longer resist Lu Ping's spell, and it was turned into a dried corpse. When it fell into the Qing Ming River, it melted into wisps of spirit and disappeared.
At this moment, Lu Ping had become a true demon god in the eyes of the Demon Luos. Even the Demon Luo army, which had always been fearless of death, shuddered in the face of Lu Ping's unimaginable power. Despite the Asura's repeated urging, the Demon Luo army still refused to advance.
The power of this strike not only frightened the Demonic Luo army, but even Lu Ping himself felt a chill run down his spine. He never thought that the supreme divine art [Sea of Mulberry Fields Chant] could be used in such a way, and it could even create such a terrifying effect.
With this attack, seven or eight hundred big and small Mara were killed. Seven Blood Mara and two Jade Mara were completely killed. One Jade Shura and three Blood Mara were seriously injured. Although the Mara army still had strength, they were all scared by Lu Ping. Not a single Mara dared to move forward.
The Asura hid in the center. Although it tried to urge the army to move forward, it never showed up in front of Lu Ping.
Lu Ping turned back. Three of the six Blood Mara were killed by the attacks of Tianshan Laozu, Tian Tian, and Liu Tianyuan. The remaining three were not scared by Tianshan Laozu's Second Tribulation Spiritual Treasure. Instead, they were scared by Lu Ping's shocking attack. Before Lu Ping could turn back, they had already covered their heads and fled.
Seeing Lu Ping return, Qin Yu and Qin Gang were already scared out of their wits. Even though Tian Tian and Liu Tianyuan had seen many miracles of Lu Ping, they could only be speechless in front of such a powerful attack.
Only Tianshan Laozu was still somewhat clear-headed. However, he was also scared out of his wits by Lu Ping's thunderous attack. He coughed and said, "Junior nephew Lu, you …"
"Junior uncle," Lu Ping interrupted Tianshan Laozu's words without hesitation and said, "Mara's army was scared out of their wits for the moment. However, they will soon realize that there are still reinforcements behind this Mara's army. Now that we have bought enough time, we must return to the station immediately."
A hint of clarity flashed across Tianshan Laozu's eyes and he immediately said, "Now is the time when Mara's army is scared out of their wits. We can charge forward and kill for a while. This will also reduce the pressure on our sect before Mara's army reaches the station."
Lu Ping sighed and said worriedly, "Something has happened to the station. Someone is taking advantage of the situation. I'm afraid that Tian Fan and Tian Xue won't be able to hold on much longer."
… …
Just as the third great cultivator was about to make a move, two consecutive shouts came from Zhenling's station. Following that, a majestic roar sounded out. Dozens of Zhenling's Core Forging Realm disciples instantly created the imposing aura of a magnificent army.
This kind of concentrated imposing aura soared into the sky and directly offset the pressure brought by the great cultivator who just appeared. Furthermore, it directly supported Tian Fan and Tian Xue who were struggling to hold on. It even faintly showed signs of overtaking them.
This is … a Dao Soldier Formation?
How could Zhenling form a Dao Soldier Formation in such a short period of time?
Not only the three great cultivators who launched a sneak attack on Zhenling, even the cultivators from various sects who were watching the battle from the surrounding void were astonished and horrified!
It was too fast. Zhenling's Dao Soldier Formation was too fast. What kind of coordination and tacit understanding did the dozens of cultivators in the formation have to achieve in order to gather everyone's strength in the formation so quickly?
Under the lead of Li Tianru and Ji Tianxuan, the two Dharma Plane adepts, the 'Three Talents Five Elements Dao Soldier Formation' slowly began to operate. Very quickly, it rose into the sky and received the two exhausted Laozu, Tian Fan and Tian Xue, into the formation. It also attempted to surround the three great cultivators in the formation.
The cultivator who was wrapped in the black fog and the great cultivator who appeared at the end were quick to react. They quickly threw themselves out of the formation's encirclement. It was already not easy for dozens of people to work together in a Dao Soldier Formation to achieve such tacit understanding. However, it was something that the Dao Soldier Formation was helpless against.
However, the second great cultivator suffered a great loss due to his carelessness. His avatar, Lu Xiaoping, actually took a blow from the great cultivator at the last moment. The willow sword in his hand pierced towards the great cultivator's eye for the sixth time.
The great cultivator did not expect this little fellow to be so persistent. He could not react in time. Not only did his body, which was about to escape, not leave, he was forced to take a few steps back.
It was these few steps back, whether it was intentional or not, that forced him into the Three Talents Five Elements Dao Soldier Formation.
After taking a blow from the great cultivator, even though Lu Xiaoping had an eight-thousand-year-old willow body, his abdomen was almost smashed. The little child curled his lips and immediately cried loudly as he fell towards Zhenling's encampment on the ground.
After evading the encirclement of the Dao Soldier Formation, the two great cultivators immediately turned around, wanting to open up a gap in the periphery to rescue the second great cultivator who was trapped in the formation.
However, the Dao Soldier Formation formed by forty to fifty Core Forging Realm cultivators was not enough to deal with the wandering great cultivators. However, it could definitely defend against the great cultivators' frontal attacks. Moreover, after Tianfan and Tian Xue, the two Laozu, entered the formation, they quickly took over Li Tianru and Ji Tianxuan's positions as the main formation. Li Tianru and Ji Tianxuan supported them from the side, causing the might of the Three Talents Five Elements Dao Soldier Formation to increase by another level. While it trapped a great cultivator within, it occupied the sky above Zhenling's encampment and blocked the attacks from the other two great cultivators!
