Such a powerful technique must have come from the hands of a Dharma Adept!
Lu Ping couldn't help but gulp when he saw the waves crashing down on the island. Was this the might of Dharma Idol Laozu?
As the many cultivators on Silver Sword Island were in a state of panic, a large, colourful barrier suddenly appeared in the sky above Silver Sword Island to envelop the entire island.
"It's the island's grand formation!"
"The island's grand formation has been activated!"
The tens of thousands of cultivators on the island immediately calmed down when the grand formation was activated.
Suddenly, a flash of light that caused the hearts of all the cultivators on Silver Sword Island to tremble flashed out. It was as though the Milky Way was flowing in reverse. The massive wave of seawater that charged into the Nine Heavens collapsed like a giant that had been cleaved in half. Only a portion of the massive amount of seawater smashed against the surface of the ocean. Due to the impact of the falling seawater, the entire island's great array shook a few times. The hearts of the cultivators on Silver Sword Island twitched as the great array shook. Only when the great array was unscathed did they calm down.
Only then did everyone recall the terrifying white light that had just flashed past, but they had no recollection of it. Only Lu Ping recalled the white light with a look of shock.
Due to his spiritual sense being far superior to everyone else's, coupled with the power of Lu Ping's Three Pure Eyes, Lu Ping was able to capture the essence of the white light the moment it appeared.
It was a streak of swordlight, and a great swordsmanship art at that. There weren't any earth-shattering phenomena when it was used, but it was silent and fast to the extreme. The others couldn't capture it with their spiritual sense, and they only felt their blood run cold in the blink of an eye.
The sword seemed to split the heavens with a single slash!
Splitting the heavens with a single slash was the true essence of Skyrend. This was Skyrend's true great swordsmanship art!
If it wasn't for Lu Ping's deep attainments in swordsmanship, even he wouldn't have been able to judge the white light.
The towering waves outside the island were clearly a great art as well, but they were destroyed by the white light. Even though the waves still crashed into the island's grand formation, their power had been greatly reduced, and they no longer posed a threat to the formation.
After the massive wave receded, the cultivators who had just calmed down exclaimed once more. Far away in the distance, where the sky and the water met, a silver line appeared once more. As the silver line moved forward, another massive wave gradually took shape. Unquestionably, it was still moving forward towards Silver Sword Island.
When the wave approached, a cultivator pointed at it and shouted, "Look, there are cultivators rapidly flying in front of the wave!"
Everyone looked into the distance and saw that there were eight or nine Core Forging Cultivators desperately flying forward, as if there was a terrifying monster chasing after them.
As the wave drew closer and closer, the cultivator at the back suddenly attacked the cultivator in front of him.
The cultivator in front of him was caught off guard. Although he blocked the attack, he couldn't help but stop himself.
The last cultivator took advantage of the opportunity to overtake him. By the time the cultivator who had stopped moving, it was already too late. A water arm abruptly emerged from the waves to entangle the cultivator. Without being able to put up any resistance, the cultivator was dragged into the ocean waters.
Lu Ping's eyes lit up. With the Three Pure Eyes, he could clearly see that the one flying in the middle was Daoist Master Liang Xuanfeng.
Although Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng was also in a sorry state, he wasn't injured at all. Lu Ping let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he muttered to himself, With Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng's cultivation base and wind-elemental spells, how could he only be in the middle of the Core Forging Realm cultivators?
At this moment, the tide caught up again. The cultivator who had plotted against one of the cultivators summoned his own magic treasure. Just as he was about to use the same trick, he saw the two Enlightened Masters flying in front of him suddenly turn around and attack the cultivator with their magic treasures.
The cultivator clearly didn't expect this to happen. He could only let out a miserable cry before he was swept away by the wave.
The cultivators on Silver Sword Island were speechless and looked at each other. In a moment of life and death, the ugliness of human nature began to show itself without the slightest scruple.
At this moment, only seven cultivators were left on the sea, flying towards Silver Sword Island.
"Kong Shang Laozu, do you really think there's no one in Skyrend?"
A dignified and heavy voice resounded, and its tone contained a trace of anger that couldn't be concealed.
"It's Wondrous Sword Laozu!"
"That's right. With Wondrous Sword Laozu, Silver Sword Island is impregnable!"
… …
The seven Core Forging cultivators were overjoyed when they heard Wondrous Sword Laozu's words. They flew even faster towards Silver Sword Island. Daoist Master Liang Xuanfeng was still in the middle of the group.
A rumbling voice seemed to come from the bottom of the sea, but also from the heavens and earth. "Wondrous Sword, hand over the murderer of my beloved grandson, or I, Kong Shang, will make your Silver Sword Island sink into the sea forever! These humans' Minor Repairs are just interest collected by the Old Man! "
A sigh rang out as Wondrous Sword Laozu's voice rang out again. This time, it was directed at the seven fleeing cultivators. "Fellow Daoists, Silver Sword Island's defensive array has been activated. The Old Man will hold them off for a moment. You all should quickly run elsewhere."
Silver Sword Island's defensive array had been activated and the yao cultivators were on the verge of attacking the island. Clearly, Wondrous Sword Laozu would not give the yao cultivators an opportunity to attack and put Silver Sword Island in danger just because of these seven cultivators.
Hearing that, the faces of the seven fleeing cultivators revealed looks of despair. However, four of them had already flown towards one side of Silver Sword Island. The other three, including Daoist Master Liang Xuanfeng, continued flying towards Silver Sword Island.
After a sigh, a white sword beam streaked across the surface of the sea once more. This time, the cultivators from Silver Sword Island were finally able to see that the white sword beam was actually a sword beam. The deep ocean was seemingly cleaved apart by the sword beam and the surging ocean tide immediately fell into the gap created by the sword beam, pausing for a moment.
The cultivators from Silver Sword Island looked at the cultivators who were still flying towards Silver Sword Island with pity on their faces. Clearly, Skyrend would not open up the passageway to the island for the sake of the three cultivators. As for the four cultivators who were flying in other directions, they would not necessarily be able to escape the besiegement of the yao cultivators. Thus, Wondrous Sword Laozu was clearly doing his best and leaving it to fate.
After buying them some time, Wondrous Sword Laozu stopped attacking. After breaking free from the obstruction created by Wondrous Sword Laozu's sword technique, the ocean tide rapidly surged forward once more. Additionally, the ocean tide rose higher and higher, seemingly having regained the power of the first wave.
Suddenly, three hands made from essence energy shot out from the ocean tide to grab the three cultivators who were flying towards Silver Sword Island.
Finally, Dharma Idol Laozu took action.
Right at this moment, Reverend Liang Xuanfeng, who had been advancing side by side, suddenly made a move and shot out a green wind wheel behind him. The Flowing Cloud Boat appeared beneath his feet, and a green stream of air swirled around the boat. At the same time, he made hundreds of different hand seals with both hands.
The hand made from essence energy, which was moving towards Sage Liang Xuanfeng, collided against the cyan-coloured wind wheel. Before the wind wheel dissipated away, the cultivators from Silver Sword Island gaped as it sliced off one third of the hand made from essence energy.
That was Dharma Idol Laozu's attack.
Clearly, Laozu, who was hiding somewhere, did not expect a Core Forging stage cultivator to be able to unravel his attack. One third of the hand that was sliced off by the wind wheel was restored. Additionally, it appeared even more powerful. At the same time, the other two hands made from essence energy sped up to grab the other two cultivators.
Suddenly, Sage Liang Xuanfeng's aura surged. Only then did the cultivators from Silver Sword Island realize that there was a level 9 Core Forging stage expert hidden amongst the fleeing cultivators. It would be a pity for a cultivator who was only one step away from the Dharma Idol stage to die here.
Sage Liang Xuanfeng's entire body transformed into a gigantic wind wheel that suddenly overtook the other two cultivators. As the cultivators from Silver Sword Island cried out in alarm, they charged towards the island's protective array.
Naturally, Lu Ping could tell that Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng was planning to break through the island's protective array formation. Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng was passionate about traveling the world and exploring ruins and cave-dwelling. Thus, he was very experienced in breaking through the island's protective array formation. Although the Silver Sword Island's protective array formation was guarded by an Avatar Great Ancestor, Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng still wanted to take a gamble. If he escaped in another direction, with his Ninth Layer Core Forging Realm cultivation base, he would only attract the pursuit of the monster cultivator grand ancestor.
Just as everyone watched Liang Xuanfeng crash into the island's protective formation, a golden sword-light suddenly erupted from the Silver Sword Island, bringing with it an indomitable aura as it slashed towards the formation that Liang Xuanfeng was crashing into.
For a moment, the flying swords and magic treasures in the hands of the cultivators on Silver Sword Island trembled. Many people exclaimed, "Great Sword Art! It's another Great Sword Art!"
"He's receiving the cultivator outside the island. Are they accomplices?"
… …
As the cultivators on Silver Sword Island exclaimed, Sage Liang Xuanfeng's gale and Lu Ping's Hundred Rivers Flow into the Sea struck the same spot on the island's protective array at the same time.
Amidst the deafening rumble, Lu Ping's Golden Scale Sword only pierced through the island's protective array formation's tip. Meanwhile, Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng's hundreds of hand seals flowed through the sword tip and into the array formation. In the blink of an eye, the hole in the array formation was torn to a size big enough for a person to pass through.
Sage Liang Xuanfeng leaped into the array and waved his hand to disperse the Dharmic powers of the hundreds of hand seals. The hole in the island's protective array rapidly closed, and the hand seals behind him followed closely. However, the multicolored color on the island's protective array suddenly deepened. The hand seals bombarded it, causing the entire array to shake once more. However, the array itself remained unscathed.
Only then did Lu Ping realize that Silver Sword Island's Fa Xiang, Laozu, had probably held back. Otherwise, the island's protective array would have been able to withstand Kong Shang's attack and come out unscathed. If Laozu had made up his mind not to give Sage Liang Xuanfeng a chance, even if Lu Ping and Sage Liang Xuanfeng worked together, they wouldn't have been able to break the island's protective array.
At that moment, two more miserable cries came from outside the array. The two cultivators who had fled to Silver Sword Island with Sage Liang Xuanfeng had died.
A cold snort came from the center of Silver Sword Island. Sage Liang Xuanfeng swayed while Lu Ping's face paled. He felt a splitting headache and nearly fell to the ground.
Sage Liang Xuanfeng extended his hand and bowed towards the center of Silver Sword Island. "Thank you for showing mercy, senior!"
Lu Ping thanked him as well. The two ignored the surprised gazes of the cultivators on the island and hurried towards Silver Sword Island.
