Yuwen Tongtian and the others watched as three late Dharma adepts from Tianling Island flew towards Yankun Island. After a while, several more beams of light rose from Tianling Mountain. They were all late Dharma adepts from Zhenling, and they also flew towards Yankun Island.
Yuwen Tongtian laughed and said, "Looks like Lu Tianping values the Seven Stars Cave Heaven so much that Zhenling does not dare to be careless. Although they did not send out all their forces, they sent all their elites. However, just as we expected, there is no one in charge of Tianling Mountain right now. Once the Sect-Protecting Formation is broken, Zhenling will be like a stray dog waiting to be slaughtered!"
Yuwen Feixiang also said, "If that's the case, we still need to end this quickly. Lin Yu Laozu has been forced by us, and he may not be willing to give his all!"
Yuwen Daotian said directly to Yuwen Feixiang, "You don't need to go. Go and keep an eye on the Zhenling adepts on Yankun Island. If they notice that something is wrong and return, you can harass them along the way. Remember not to get surrounded."
Yuwen Feixiang was anxious and was about to argue, but unexpectedly, Yuwen Tongtian also said solemnly, "This is your Seventh Great Uncle's and my idea. Although we have a high chance of success this time, it may not be without risks. With your strength, it doesn't matter if you go or not. However, the future of the Yuwen family cannot be without you. You should understand your Seventh Great Uncle's painstaking efforts. You don't need to go this time."
…
Deng Tianming had used the purple-gold scale left behind by Lu Ping as the core of the entire formation on Yankun Island. While it had isolated and suppressed Lin Yu Laozu's Natal Spiritual Treasure, it had also used the power of the formation to trap Lin Yu Laozu. He had attempted to use Lin Yu Laozu to activate the sacrificial secret technique and use Yankun Island as a fulcrum to summon Feiling Island to the surface.
Originally, the formation on Yankun Island was used to coordinate with Lu Ping's Technique of Changing Seas and Mulberry Fields. According to Lu Ping's previous estimation, after he attained the Pure Yang Realm, he would indeed be able to use the power of the Technique of Changing Seas and Mulberry Fields to free Feiling Island from the seabed with the help of the formation. Although Lu Ping would definitely be exhausted after this and would probably need several years to recover, it was all worth it when compared to obtaining a huge and fertile island.
However, after Lin Yu Laozu came to the North Sea and Lu Ping sensed that something was wrong, Lu Ping and Deng Tianming secretly set up a formation trap on Yankun Island and hid a sacrificial formation inheritance from Jiuxuan Tower.
With Lin Yu Laozu's strength, it was naturally impossible for him to activate the entire formation on Yankun Island. However, if the sacrificial secret technique was activated, Lin Yu Laozu, a Pure Yang cultivator, would naturally be able to activate the formation.
Although Lin Yu Laozu was a Pure Yang cultivator and had obtained the inheritance from Jiuxuan Tower, his strength had greatly increased over the past hundred years. However, his Natal Spiritual Treasure was suppressed, he was also affected by the formation, and he had to deal with the siege of three Great Zhenling cultivators. He was already overwhelmed. When he heard Deng Tianming say "sacrificial", he was even more terrified.
Lin Yu Laozu had also obtained the inheritance from Jiuxuan Tower, so he naturally knew the power of this "sacrificial" secret technique. Although he had not been able to see through the sacrificial formation that Zhenling had secretly set up, he now understood everything.
However, it was all too late. The enormous power of the formation had already completely engulfed Lin Yu Laozu. Under the siege of the three Great Zhenling cultivators, Lin Yu Laozu increasingly did not have the strength to break free from the sacrificial formation. The Essential Vitality in his bloodline, using the suppressed Natal Spiritual Treasure as a medium, was continuously absorbed into the formation along with all the vitality in his body. The entire Yankun Island began to shake violently. The surrounding seawater was turbulent, and wave after wave surged towards the shore. Gradually, it began to affect the inner parts of the island. The entire Yankun Island was slowly sinking.
"Do you think that you can obtain the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven by scheming against the Old Man? Haha, you are too naive. I'm afraid that your nest has already been raided by others. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Lu Tianping may not have calculated everything perfectly! "
Lin Yu Laozu knew that he could no longer turn the situation around, so he simply let loose and cursed. However, he did not mention a word about the Yuwen Clan. At this moment, he actually hoped that the Yuwen Clan would succeed. At the very least, they could not let these people in front of him have an easy time.
"Hmph, who said that we are scheming against the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven?"
Mei Tianqin had long been annoyed by Lin Yu Laozu's satisfied expression even at the brink of death. She snorted coldly, causing Lin Yu Laozu's expression to change.
At this moment, Lin Yu Laozu could no longer maintain his body in the air. Under the pull of the formation's power, he continued to descend. More and more of the qi around his body was getting out of his control. Mei Tianqin and the other two great cultivators had already stopped. At this moment, even if Lin Yu Laozu wanted to self-destruct, he would not have the strength to do so.
Liu Tianling smiled and said, "I'll let Senior know that our sect is after Fei Ling Island and not the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven. The reason why my disciple told Senior that this island is related to the Seven Stars Grotto-Heaven is to confuse the Yuwen Clan behind Senior."
Lin Yu Laozu's expression stiffened. It took him a while to figure out the cause and effect. It turned out that he had fallen into the other party's trap from the very beginning, but he didn't know it. Instead, he thought that he had succeeded.
From beginning to end, Lin Yu Laozu, a dignified pure yang cultivator, was merely a pawn in the game between the Zhenling Clan and the Yuwen Clan. Lin Yu Laozu couldn't help but laugh bitterly at the sky. He no longer resisted the formation's refinement, and in an instant, his entire body was swallowed by the sacrificial formation.
Just as Lin Yu Laozu was swallowed by the formation, huge waves suddenly appeared on the sea far away from Fei Ling Island. Fei Ling Island had already floated up from the depths of the sea and started to move towards Sky Spirit Island without leaving a trace. Along the way, the sea within a radius of several hundred kilometers was shaking and the sea was boiling.
While the battle on Yan Kun Island was raging, the two pure yang cultivators from the Yuwen Clan suddenly arrived outside of Sky Spirit Island's sect-protecting formation. Half of the sky was covered by dark clouds, and lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the clouds. It was as if Zhenling would welcome a baptism of thunder and lightning in the next moment.
Liu Tianyuan's figure floated above the sect-protecting formation as he shouted, "Which fellow daoist has come to Zhenling to make such a joke? Please show yourself!"
"Hmph, immature Dharma Minor Repairs. Is there no one left in Zhenling? Call your elders out!"
A loud shout was like a thunderclap, rumbling in the sky. Then, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky. Fortunately, Liu Tianyuan had fallen from the sky, and the lightning was blocked by the sect-protecting formation. Otherwise, with the power from before, Liu Tianyuan knew that he would not have been able to withstand it.
"You run pretty fast, but if the Old Man breaks this turtle shell, I'd like to see where you can run to!"
After falling into the sect-protecting formation and dodging the bolt of lightning, Liu Tianyuan shouted, "Activate the sect-protecting formation at full power and send out a signal to summon the Dharma adepts of our sect. There's an enemy invading with lightning spells. I suspect it's the pure yang cultivator, Laozu. He must be from the Yuwen Clan of the central plains!"
As soon as Liu Tianyuan finished speaking, another two bolts of lightning fell from the sky like two centipedes crawling in the sky. Zhenling's sect-protecting formation was lit up by the lightning, and a huge amount of spiritual power was released from the formation. The entire formation looked as if it had been weakened by the lightning spells that fell from the sky.
"Eh, I didn't think that a mere North Sea Zhenling could produce so many talents. A small mid Dharma adept actually has such knowledge. It looks like there's a reason why Zhenling rose to power in the North Sea!"
The one who spoke was another voice. The shock on Liu Tianyuan's face deepened, but he still tried his best to suppress the shock in his heart. He tried his best to use a calm tone to send a message to the high-level adept of Zhenling on Tianling Mountain. "Two pure yang cultivators from the Yuwen Clan have come to attack!"
Tens of thousands of lightning bolts fell, and the entire sky above Tianling Island had become an area of raging lightning. Although Zhenling's sect-protecting formation was supported by a huge amount of spiritual energy, the core of the formation was only controlled by a few late Dharma adepts and a few second generation adepts at the mid Dharma stage. Among the third generation disciples, other than Lu Ping, even Yin Tianchu did not know the true secret of Zhenling's sect-protecting formation.
Under the sudden attack of the two pure yang cultivators, even though Zhenling had adepts watching over the sect-protecting formation at all times, in a situation where there was no one to control it, the sect-protecting formation could only unleash a fraction of its power. Under the premeditated attacks of the two pure yang cultivators, the sect-protecting formation was soon in danger.
"In the end, it's just the foundation of a medium-sized sect. Although they've put on the shell of a large sect and are even trying to covet the status of a holy land sect, this sect-protecting formation is the face of a sect. I don't know where Zhenling gets his confidence from with such a sloppy sect-protecting formation!"
Yuwen Dao-Heaven had a sarcastic look on his face. He nodded at Yuwen Tongtian and said, "There's no time to lose. Now that Zhenling and the other great adepts have received the news and are rushing back, I'll go ahead and attack the formation first. Third Brother, get ready to support me!"
Yuwen Tongtian said, "Be careful!"
Yuwen Dao-Heaven laughed and said, "Without Lu Tianping, Zhenling is nothing more than this!"
There was an explosion of thunder in the sky, and the whole world fell silent in an instant. In the void, a huge ball of lightning broke through the void and landed on the sect-protecting formation. As the huge ball of lightning fell, the layers of the formation's shields were like layers of wax that had come into contact with heat, and they were pierced through one after another.
At this moment, Liu Tianyuan shouted, "Three Talents Five Elements Dao Soldier Formation, rise!"
With Liu Tianyuan, Tian Yong, Tian Feng, Li Tianru, and Zhu Tianmeng as the leaders, a hundred and eight Zhenling adepts joined forces to set up the Dao soldier formation on Tian Ling Mountain. They launched a joint attack, and a giant ape formed in the void at the top of Tian Ling Mountain. It roared at the sky and then punched out.
With a loud bang, the whole sky above Tian Ling Island was covered by a white light. The ball of lightning was destroyed by the giant ape before it could break through Zhenling's sect-protecting formation. However, the moment the giant ape destroyed the ball of lightning, it also disappeared. The Dao soldier formation that Liu Tianyuan and the others had set up also collapsed, and many Zhenling Core Forging adepts were even seriously injured by this attack.
