"Miss Hu, please don't misunderstand. I'm Brother Lu's good friend!"
Hu Lili didn't put away the small lightning formation plate in her hand. Instead, she looked at the teenager in front of her. Her eyes flashed with a green light as she said in a low voice, "Demon race?"
The teenager smiled helplessly. At this time, three children with human bodies and snake tails walked out from behind the teenager. The girl in front of them said, "Aunt Hu, he really is Father's good friend."
Seeing Samling's confidence, Hu Lili believed him. She asked Lu Bi, "Why haven't I seen him before? Your father didn't tell me who he is."
Before Lu Bi could answer, the young man smiled and said, "Please don't misunderstand, Miss Hu. My name is Luan Yu. Because of my identity, I've specially instructed Brother Lu not to reveal my whereabouts, or it might bring great trouble to everyone. So, Miss Hu doesn't know of my existence."
When Luan Yu saw Hu Lili put away the lightning formation plate, he knew that Hu Lili believed him. He said, "It seems that the situation outside isn't good. Although I won't make an enemy of the demon race, I can't watch Brother Lu's foundation be destroyed. Leave the island's formation plate and defensive formation to me. Miss Hu, please go out and help that Fellow Daoist outside. Otherwise, I'm afraid Huang Li Island will really fall."
Hu Lili nodded. She had already discovered that Chen Lian was currently being besieged. If she didn't help him, he would really be in danger. Previously, she was worried about the island's defensive formation. Now that there was a Core Forging cultivator guarding the island, she was naturally at ease.
At this time, Huang Li Island was on the verge of collapse. From time to time, the island's defensive formation would be broken by the joint attacks of a few Mid Core Forging cultivators. Then, demon beasts would rush into the island's defensive formation before the formation could close.
However, these demon beasts didn't bring much pressure to the cultivators on Huang Li Island. What really scared the cultivators on the island were the five Core Forging cultivators. Although two of them were besieging Chen Lian and the other two were attacking the defensive formation, the last Core Forging cultivator was able to kill 21 Late Blood Condensation cultivators in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the teleportation array on Huang Li Island had already been destroyed. Outside the island, there was an inescapable net laid out by the demon beasts. The cultivators on Huang Li Island could only fight with their backs against the wall. Facing the massacre of the Core Forging cultivator, many cultivators who didn't know each other had no choice but to work together to resist the attack of the Core Forging cultivator. Especially since there were many Zhenling disciples on Huang Li Island. They formed a Dao Soldier Formation, the "Three Talents Five Elements Formation", which was able to block one or two attacks from the Core Forging cultivator.
Hu Lili flew out of the Grand Defensive Formation. One of the Core Forging Stage human pet and one of the Demon Cultivator who were attacking the Grand Defensive Formation immediately flew out and chased after Hu Lili, while the other continued to attack the Grand Defensive Formation. Seeing that the Grand Defensive Formation was about to be broken, the Demon Cultivator was overjoyed. As long as he could break into the Immortal's Cave and destroy the Grand Defensive Formation of the Island, he would be the main contributor to the attack on Huang Li Island.
It had only been three years since Zhenling occupied Huang Li Island. The human cultivators of the North Sea used Huang Li Island as their base of operations. Blood Condensation cultivators went out to sea to hunt the demon beasts. Many human Core Forging cultivators also secretly set out from Huang Li Island, either north or south, to attack the demon beasts' rear. This often caused the demon beasts to lose sight of the demon beasts. As a result, the demon beasts hated Huang Li Island to the bone. However, Huang Li Island was previously managed by Lu Ping like an iron bucket. Moreover, the human cultivators of the North Sea also knew the value of Huang Li Island. Whenever the demon beasts attacked, the Core Forging cultivators would immediately rush over to reinforce them. That was why Huang Li Island was able to stand tall in the demon beasts' hinterland.
However, just when the Core Forging cultivators thought that Huang Li Island would be occupied after he destroyed the island's defensive formation disk, three whips suddenly shot out from the defensive formation.
The Core Forging cultivator didn't care at all. When the three whips approached, the Core Forging cultivator had already sensed that they were merely three Peak Blood Condensation cultivators working together.
However, just as the Core Forging cultivator was about to block the three whips, the three whips suddenly merged into one. The power of the whips instantly multiplied, causing the Core Forging cultivator to feel a sense of danger.
The Core Forging cultivator retreated abruptly. At the same time, a stone wall rose in front of him. However, a crisp sound rang out as the whips struck the stone wall, instantly turning it into a pile of rubble.
The Core Forging cultivator's wooden expression changed slightly. He saw three young children of about seven or eight years of age walking out from behind the collapsed stone wall, dragging their long snake tails behind them.
Of the two Core Forging cultivators surrounding Chen Lian, one was a Third Layer Core Forging cultivator, while the other was a Second Layer Core Forging cultivator. Although Chen Lian was only a Second Layer Core Forging cultivator, he was confident that he could defeat any one of them in a one-on-one battle. However, the two Core Forging cultivators obviously wouldn't give him that chance. With the two of them working together, Chen Lian was already in a precarious situation.
At this moment, the sound of a drum suddenly came from behind Chen Lian. The buzzing sound in the sky was getting closer and closer, and Chen Lian's eyes immediately lit up.
The two Core Forging cultivators surrounding Chen Lian raised their heads and saw a purple cloud in the sky above Huang Li Island. The cloud transformed into various shapes and swept towards them.
When the two Core Forging cultivators got closer, they discovered that the cloud was actually made up of fist-sized Purple Demonic Bees. As the drum vibrated, the Purple Demonic Bees gathered into a dense rotating ball, surrounding the Second Layer Core Forging cultivator that was besieging Chen Lian.
The Core Forging cultivator raised his hand and released a few fireballs. Dozens of Purple Demonic Bees were blown away, but only three to five of them were blown to pieces because they were too close to the fireballs. A dozen of them fell to the ground and struggled to fly. The rest of the Demonic Bees that were blown away staggered in the sky as if they were drunk. After a while, they flapped their wings and joined the ranks of the Core Forging cultivator that was besieging the Core Forging cultivator.
The Core Forging cultivator raised his hand and released a few fireballs. Dozens of Purple Demonic Bees were blown away, but only three to five of them were blown to pieces because they were too close to the fireballs. More than a dozen of them fell to the ground and struggled to fly. The rest of the Demonic Bees that were blown away staggered in the air as if they were drunk, then flapped their wings and joined the ranks of the Core Forging cultivators.
The cultivation levels of these Demonic Bees varied, but the weakest was at least at the mid-stage of the Blood Refining Realm. The strongest was actually at the mid-stage of the Blood Condensation Realm. Under normal circumstances, Core Forging cultivators and humans alike were like ants in the eyes of Core Forging cultivators. However, when there were hundreds or thousands of these ants and they formed a Demon Soldier Formation, even a Core Forging cultivator wouldn't dare to face them head-on.
Without the other cultivator on the same level as him holding him back, Chen Lian was finally able to unleash his full strength. Instantly, he switched from passively taking a beating to attacking and defending. A clump of flames blazed above his head, causing Chen Lian's attacks to exude a suffocating heat.
After Hu Lili flew out of the cave, she ignored the Core Forging cultivators that were chasing after her. Instead, she spread out her divine sense and quickly found Zheng Jie, who was commanding the cultivators to fight against the demonic beasts on the island. She handed the Amethyst Wasp Dao Soldiers that Lu Ping left for her to protect herself and instructed her to help Chen Lian. Meanwhile, Hu Lili rushed towards the Core Forging cultivator that was slaughtering the Blood Condensation cultivators on Huang Li Island.
"You are a Core Forging Enlightened Master, yet you are attacking a low-level cultivator. Aren't you afraid that a high-level human cultivator will give you a taste of your own medicine?"
The Core Forging cultivator that attacked the Blood Condensation cultivators was only a First Layer Core Forging cultivator. From the looks of it, he had just advanced to the Core Forging realm not long ago. The reason he was slaughtering the Blood Condensation cultivators seemed to be because he was experiencing the superiority of a high-level human cultivator.
When he heard Hu Lili's question, he couldn't help but sneer, "Revenge? That will have to wait until there are still cultivators left on this island. If all of them are dead, what evidence do you humans have to say that a high-level demon cultivator slaughtered a low-level cultivator? It's clearly a demon cultivator that has yet to take human form that killed your low-level cultivators. "
Hu Lili's heart sank when she heard this. It seemed like the demon race was determined to take down Huang Li Island. They even wanted to massacre the entire island. Moreover, it was a Core Forging cultivator killing a low-level human cultivator. This was not allowed in the human and demon races. Since they dared to do such a thing, it was clear that they were very confident in taking down Huang Li Island.
At this moment, Hu Lili didn't have the time to think too much. Although Luan Yu was watching over the island's protective array, the few mid Core Forging cultivators outside the island were able to break through the island's protective array every time they attacked. Before the array could close up again, a large number of demonic beasts would rush in. At this time, the number of demonic beasts on Huang Li Island was increasing. If Hu Lili didn't stop the Core Forging cultivators from slaughtering the low-level cultivators, these low-level demonic beasts alone would be enough to drown Huang Li Island.
The small lightning array appeared in Hu Lili's hand once again. The array expanded to a radius of three zhang and landed at Hu Lili's feet.
Hu Lili pointed at the array and a burst of lightning flashed in the air. A thunderclap sounded in the air and a bolt of lightning fell towards the Blood Condensation cultivator.
At this time, the Core Forging cultivator who was chasing after Lu Ping also rushed over. The two of them blocked Hu Lili from the front and back. The first Core Forging cultivator laughed and said, "Alright, then I'll kill you, this disappointing bitch. After that, I'll kill these Blood Condensation Minor Repairs to my heart's content."
With that said, the two of them attacked Hu Lili together.
Hu Lili wasn't good at fighting and killing. Her true strength lay in the study of array formations. However, this didn't mean that she was easy to bully.
The lightning array under Hu Lili's feet was made from the thousand-year-old Thunderstruck Peach Wood that Lu Ping had given her. With Chen Lian and Lu Ping's help, this array formation had reached the level of a magic treasure, and its power had greatly increased.
Just as the two beastkin cultivators attacked Hu Lili, the disk array under Hu Lili's feet flickered again as she quickly made a few hand seals. A cyan lightning suddenly formed a lightning ball. While firmly covering Hu Lili, it also blocked the attacks of the two beastkin cultivators.
The first Core Forging cultivator sneered and said, "So you're a formation cultivator. You're just wearing a turtle shell. How many attacks can this array formation block?"
Just as the two of them were about to join forces to attack again, a spirit pill suddenly flew out from the green lightning barrier towards the first layer Core Forging Stage beast cultivator.
Just as the Core Forging cultivator was about to attack again, the spirit pill suddenly dispersed into a ball of extremely dense spiritual energy. Then, a nimble sword light seemed to be born from the ball of spiritual energy and shot towards the first Core Forging cultivator!
