Just as Enlightened Master Yu Hua was about to escape, he felt the sky suddenly darken. Under Enlightened Master Yu Hua's incredulous gaze, Chen Lian's second restriction, "Landslide," came whistling down.
Blood suddenly spilled out, and Enlightened Master Yu Hua looked as if he was fished out of a pool of blood. The azure light under his feet suddenly turned blood red, and his speed instantly increased by several times as he rushed out of the "Landslide."
However, before Enlightened Master Yu Hua could rejoice, he saw Lu Ping push his palm forward from behind him. The "Landslide" that fell vertically from the sky suddenly fell diagonally in the direction Enlightened Master Yu Hua escaped.
With a loud bang, the tail of the "Landslide" smashed into the sea outside of Huang Li Island, causing waves like a tsunami that hit the shore of Huang Li Island.
A miserable howl flashed in the sky, and Daoist Master Yu Hua finally escaped.
Another few rays of light landed on Huang Li Island. Yao Yong appeared and said, "It's a pity that that person escaped. If Junior Martial Brother could capture that person, then you would be able to move one step forward on the Rookie List."
Seeing that Yao Yong couldn't forget about the Rookie List, Shi Lingling couldn't help but grumpily say, "The beast cultivator that Junior Martial Brother Lu fought was at the fifth layer of Core Forging. Moreover, Junior Martial Brother Lu hasn't broken through to the middle stage of Core Forging yet. It's already amazing that you could injure him."
Seeing that Yao Yong was embarrassed, Lu Ping hurriedly said, "This time, the opponent's strength is indeed not weak. Even with the stone armor that can avoid the detection of divine sense, we still couldn't kill him. Even so, the escape technique he used at the end must have greatly injured his vitality. In addition to his previous injuries, it will be difficult for him to recover without several years of recuperation, unless he also has a healing pill like the Spirit Water Meridian Nourishing Pill."
Hu Lili nodded at Lu Ping and walked towards the cave-dwelling Lu Ping built on the hill a few years ago. The Blood Condensation Realm junior martial sisters who came with him carried all kinds of array formations and tools. Under the protection of Lu Ping and the others, they flew in all directions of Huang Li Island.
The direction that Lu Ping chose was naturally the easternmost. This was the frontline against the demon race's upcoming counterattack. The female cultivator who went with Lu Ping to set up the formation was Daoist Xuanchen's fifth disciple.
Although among Daoist Xuanchen's disciples, only his eldest and fourth disciple, Hu Lili, had reached the Gold Core Realm, there were quite a number of other Blood Condensation disciples. This was because only Daoist Xuanchen's branch of Daoist Zhenling knew a thing or two about formations. Although Daoist Liang Xuanfeng was also quite accomplished in this area, he was better at breaking formations.
Daoist Xuanchen's two Core Forging disciples did not get along well with Hu Lili. Compared to her three Senior Martial Sisters, Hu Lili had only been under Daoist Xuanchen for a short period of time. However, due to Hu Lili's good relations with others and her high cultivation, there were quite a few junior martial sisters who were willing to get close to her. Otherwise, Hu Lili wouldn't have called so many junior martial sisters to help Lu Ping's counterattack on Huang Li Island.
"Junior Martial Sister Qiu, I'll deal with the demon race's attack. Don't worry and just set up the formation."
Junior Martial Sister Qiu's face was flushed. She nodded and began to survey the positions. One by one, she buried the tools used to set up the formation several zhang underground.
When Daoist Yu Hua was repelled by Lu Ping, the demonic beasts on the island began to flee towards the sea. Those that were too slow were killed by Yao Yong and the others. Most of these demonic beasts were in the Blood Condensation or Blood Refining realm. In front of a group of Core Forging experts, it was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.
Of the eight directions on Huang Li Island, Lu Ping was guarding the east. Yin Zichu and Ji Zixuan were guarding the northeast and southeast respectively. Chen Lian was guarding the north while Yao Yong volunteered to guard the south. Apart from Lu Ping's east, this was the direction that would suffer the most damage. After all, the main force of the demon race was in the southern part of the North Sea. Du Feng was guarding Yao Yong's flank in the southwest, and Shi Lingling was guarding the northwest.
The west should be the least dangerous area. Lu Ping asked Lu Qin to accompany Jiang Xuanxuan. Jiang Xuanxuan's cultivation was high enough, but her teacher doted on her a lot. Although this junior martial sister was smart, she had never left Tianling Mountain after cultivating for dozens of years. She didn't know much about the ways of the world and was very naive. She didn't know why her teacher was like this.
As for Zhong Jian and Ma Yu, they were arranged by Lu Ping to be in charge of emergency rescue. They would go wherever the situation was urgent. Zhang Zicheng and Zheng Jie knew that their cultivation was not high enough to be of much help, so they volunteered to clear the hidden demon beasts on the island. Lu Ping assigned Dabao, who had been hiding in the Golden House to build his underground palace, to be their guide. With Dabao around, the demon beasts on the island would have nowhere to hide.
Hu Lili went alone to the Immortal's Cave that Lu Ping had opened. Fortunately, it was a temporary Immortal's Cave that Lu Ping had seriously injured Yu Hua. It was not as chaotic as Hu Lili had imagined.
Hu Lili quickly took out a huge array disc from the storage magic tool on her waist. This array disc was five feet wide. After Hu Lili advanced to the Core Forging Stage, she began to make this array disc for Lu Ping. During the process of making it, she received several pointers from Daoist Master Xuan Chen. Only then did Hu Lili successfully complete the array disc.
Under Lu Ping's special instructions, the array disc was more precise and detailed than the one on Xuan Qi Island. Naturally, its power was also much greater.
Once Lu Ping and the others successfully occupied Huang Li Island, it was bound to become the frontline of the resistance against the Demon Race. Moreover, Xuan Qi Island had a peak Core Forging Stage cultivator like Daoist Master Qu Xuan Cheng. On Huang Li Island, there was not even a single Core Forging Stage cultivator. Therefore, Lu Ping could only focus on strengthening the array formation even though it would inevitably consume a large number of Spirit Stones.
In addition to the dense array lines on the array disc, there were hundreds of grooves for inlaying Spirit Stones. In the center, there were thirty-six slightly larger grooves. Obviously, they were used to inlay high-grade Spirit Stones. The surrounding six hundred and sixty-six slightly smaller grooves were prepared for middle-grade Spirit Stones.
Hu Lili had just surveyed the position and placed the entire array disc on the ground. Suddenly, a long and drawn-out whistling sound came from the east.
Hu Lili's heart tightened. Her hands suddenly sped up. In her hands, several middle-grade Spirit Stones were inlaid in a sequence. Then, she used her magic power to stimulate them. The inlaid Spirit Stones suddenly lit up. Several array runes connected to the Spirit Stones also lit up at the same time.
However, when Hu Lili looked at these runes that were like a drop in the ocean on the entire formation plate, she couldn't help but grit her teeth, and the speed of her hands instantly increased by a bit. In the process of gradually activating this kind of large-scale formation, it was an enormous test of Hu Lili's Divine Sense and True Essence. However, she couldn't care so much at this time.
Whether or not Huang Li Island would fall into the hands of Zhenling depended on when the island's protective array formation could be established. If Hu Lili could not completely repair the island's protective array formation by the time the Demon Race's reinforcements arrived, then the loss of Huang Li Island would be a small matter. However, she was afraid that the group of cultivators who followed Lu Ping to Huang Li Island would encounter an accident.
Lu Ping could not help but frown when he heard the whistling sound coming from afar. Judging from the aura of the approaching person, his strength should be far above that of the Sage Yao Cultivator who was severely wounded by Lu Ping.
The Golden Scale Sword, which had been upgraded by Lu Ping to the level of a Psychic Magic Treasure, revolved around Lu Ping like a happy fish. At this time, Lu Ping regretted choosing a flying magic treasure from Sage Qu Xuancheng. If he had chosen a defensive magic treasure, he might have been able to hold on longer this time.
His Divine Sense penetrated the core space. Below the Golden Core was a White Jade Lotus Seat. The White Jade Lotus Seat was surrounded by 12 Genchen Beads. Outside the 12 Genchen Beads, there was a small flag with a damaged corner. This was the defensive magic treasure Lu Ping obtained in the Refining Hall, the "Water Controlling Flag". This was once a Spirit Cultivation level magic treasure. Unfortunately, because of the damage, only six Psychic Magic Treasures were left, it was not something that Lu Ping could easily use. Otherwise, Lu Ping would not have been in such a dilemma.
At the point where the sea and the sky met, a figure appeared and rushed in the direction of Lu Ping at a very fast speed. A Divine Sense seemed to be demonstrating. Before the person arrived, it had already pressed down on Lu Ping.
How could Lu Ping be afraid of the Divine Sense of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Core Forging Realm? He was someone who had even tried the Divine Sense of the Fa Xiang Laozu. Unfortunately, there was still Junior Sister Qiu behind Lu Ping.
Lu Ping was not afraid in the slightest. He looked up to the sky and let out a long roar to inform his companions on Huang Li Island. The light under his feet flashed and he unexpectedly flew out of Huang Li Island. He rushed straight towards the person from the Demon Race. He held the Golden Scale Sword in his hand and swung it forward.
Since Lu Ping had completely mastered the realm of the Great Magical Swordsmanship, his control of swordsmanship had reached a point where he could use it at will. Even if he did not use the Imperial Sword Technique, the Golden Scale Sword could still release a powerful sword momentum.
"Great Magical Swordsmanship!"
The Demon Race cultivator exclaimed and abruptly stopped his flying body in the air. A huge stone tablet rose into the air. At the same time, two flying knives circled and danced in the air, forming a huge blade vortex, and strangled the huge sword from the side.
The Demon Race cultivator knew that in the face of the attack of the Great Magical Swordsmanship, blindly defending was simply courting death. Only by attacking could the power of the Great Magical Swordsmanship be effectively weakened. However, facing a Great Magical Swordsmanship head-on was undoubtedly extremely stupid, so he attacked from the side to reduce the power of Lu Ping's Great Magical Swordsmanship.
Although Daoist Yu Hua realized that he could not defend in the face of the Great Magical Swordsmanship for long, he chose to face the Great Magical Swordsmanship head-on. As a result, Lu Ping's life source magic weapon was seriously injured.
Just when Lu Ping and the Demon Race cultivator began to fight, Yao Yong in the south and Yin Zichu in the northeast also let out a long roar. However, the fourth long roar was gentle and beautiful. The west side of Huang Li Island that Jiang Xuanxuan and Lu Qin were guarding had unexpectedly encountered an enemy!
