In front of Lu Ping, there was a small flag revolving around him. Although Lu Ping was sitting on the ground motionlessly, his mind was focused on the small flag.
To be more precise, Lu Ping's Divine Will was focused on the few mysterious runes on the small flag.
Ever since Lu Ping had advanced to the Core Forging stage, he had obtained this mysterious small flag from Zhenling's Heaven's Inheritance Cave. Although he knew that this small flag would be of great help to Lu Ping's Divine Will, and Lu Ping had suspected that there might be other secrets to this small flag, Lu Ping's level at that time had not been able to discover any clues. Hence, as time passed, Lu Ping's curiosity gradually faded.
However, this small flag was still an extremely rare Divine Will treasure in the world of cultivation. Although it only had one function and was weak, it was still very valuable in the world of cultivation.
This situation continued as Lu Ping's level of cultivation increased to the peak of the Core Forging stage, and his Divine Will was already comparable to that of a mid Dharma adept. However, he still could not discover any other secrets of this small flag.
It was only after the discovery of the Vast Sea Relics that the Vast Sea Bell had been rung twice by Dongyi Laozu and Demon King Kong Jing. At first, Lu Ping was caught off guard and almost suffered a loss. However, when the bell rang for the second time, Lu Ping, who was on guard, discovered that the originally ordinary surface of the small flag had a few mysterious runes that Lu Ping had never seen before.
And it was precisely because of the appearance of these runes that Lu Ping was able to easily block the attack of the Vast Sea Bell when the bell rang for the second time.
At this time, Lu Ping was naturally very interested in the small flag's changes. The few runes that were revealed were obviously not all of the small flag's secrets. However, after a period of time, although Lu Ping tried his best to unravel the secrets of these runes and at the same time hoped to discover more of the small flag's secrets, there was no progress. However, this also allowed Lu Ping to discover that this small flag not only helped in the use of Divine Will, but it was also extremely beneficial in the expansion of Divine Will and in defense.
This was until Lu Ping had consecutively fought with four Dharma adepts, one of whom was even a mid Dharma adept. This caused Lu Ping to have no choice but to rely on the small flag's help.
At this time, Lu Ping discovered that the small flag once again had a few other runes. The existence of these runes not only made it easier for Lu Ping to use his own Divine Will, but it also helped Lu Ping's Divine Will to defend against the attacks of the other Dharma adepts.
It was also because of the small flag's changes that Lu Ping was able to severely injure a Dharma adept with a single blow. This was also why Lu Ping was able to remain unscathed under the Divine Will attacks of a mid Dharma adept and two early Dharma adepts.
After the appearance of the Vast Sea Bell, it was not that Lu Ping had not thought about whether the small flag in his hand was one of the Three Treasures of the Vast Sea. It was just that the power that the small flag currently displayed could not be compared to that of a spirit treasure. Secondly, the cloud sail was said to have been lost in the past and had been found by the demons. However, the small flag that Lu Ping had obtained from the secret cave of the Heaven's Inheritance Cave had many unexplained mysteries.
Now that Lu Ping's divine sense had entered the small banner, he wanted to refine the newly emerged rune patterns so that he could better control the mysterious little banner. At the same time, he also wanted to see if he could find more rune patterns in the little banner by following the clues.
Another ray of light streaked across the sky. Tian Shu Laozu took a look at the Sound Transmission Sword, and his expression turned ugly. He said, "The other sects on Frost Island are also in a state of emergency. Up until now, they have found at least twenty traces of the Blood Mara. The Jade Shura has not appeared since that day."
Tian Cheng Laozu said loudly, "It looks like Mara wants to finish this battle in one go!"
Tian Shu Laozu asked, "How far are the battles of the other sects?"
Tian Shu Laozu said in a low voice, "It's not looking good. Xuan Ling Sect is doing better, but the Cang Hai Sect is using the island's protective formation to defend against Mara's attack. The situation over at the twelve forces is not looking good either."
Tian Shu Laozu thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about the twelve forces. Although we lost the Qiao Family, as long as the remaining eleven join forces, even our sect will have to be wary of them. They will show their trump cards at the critical moment. Over at the Cang Hai Sect, Nephew Lu used his Divine Will to severely injure a Dharma adept. The morale of the Cang Hai Sect will be greatly affected, so it is expected that they will not be able to win."
"But the ones facing the real danger are still our sect. Although the Tao soldiers have taken the initiative to slow down Mara's attack on the island's protective formation, it is only a matter of time. After all, our sect is facing the strongest attack. Once the island's protective formation is trapped, our sect will have no room to retreat."
Tian Shu Laozu flipped his hands and two flames flashed. He said, "We have to fight this battle no matter what. I just don't know when our sect's reinforcements will arrive!"
After a cultivator entered the Dharma stage, they began to control the power of space. Mara, who was above the Dharma stage, could also control the power of space.
After Mara surrounded Frost Island, because of the appearance of Bloody Mara, the teleportation formation on Frost Island was also in danger. The reinforcements on Frost Island could not go through the teleportation formation and could only fly over. This gave Mara enough time to attack Frost Island.
Mara's companion dharma treasures and half-life dharma treasures usually improved along with Mara's strength. The Great Shura that Wang Qi and the others were facing had the strength of a late Core Forging cultivator. Naturally, the companion dharma treasure in its hands was no weaker than a Spirit Nurturing Dharma treasure.
Although the Golden Scale Sword was Lu Ping's personal sword, it was only a top-grade spirit-connected mystic treasure. Not to mention, Wang Qi's cultivation base was far from the Great Shura's spear. Even with Wang Qi's Three Talents Array Formation, he might not be able to match the spear's power.
However, just as the Golden Scale Sword was about to hit the spear, a silver light instantly enveloped the Golden Scale Sword, causing the golden longsword to be inlaid with a silver light. It merged with Wang Qi's golden sword aura.
Clang!
To everyone's surprise, the Golden Scale Sword was able to deflect Asura's spear. Asura's spear, which had been brandished by the spear, was also deflected. The spear brushed past the right shoulders of the Dark Iron and Dark Iron brothers, cutting off two strips of flesh that were half a foot long. Blood dripped down into the sea.
The power of Wang Qi's spear was not only unexpected by the Profound Steel and Profound Iron brothers, but also by the others. Even Wang Qi himself did not expect it to be so powerful that it could deflect the spear of a late Core Forging Great Shura.
Although Spiritual Master Xuan Liang was surprised, he was still the person in charge of the formation. Seeing that his side had blocked the Great Shura's sure-kill attack, he immediately used the power of the formation on himself while the Great Shura was still exhausted. He threw a short stick at the back of the Great Shura's head.
After the Great Shura's attack failed, the Three Talents and Five Elemental Dao Soldier Formation continued to operate. Spiritual Master Xuan Liang could no longer dodge this attack. He was hit so hard that he could not get up for a moment. He fainted and fell from the sky towards the sea.
When the other cultivators saw that Spiritual Master Xuan Liang's attack had succeeded, they hurriedly operated the formation and chased after him. Although Wang Qi's hands were numb from the Great Shura's spear, the Profound Steel and Profound Iron brothers ignored their injuries and attacked the falling Great Shura. Before the Great Shura could completely wake up, he was already dismembered in midair.
Although Spiritual Master Xuan Liang's team had killed a late Core Forging Great Shura, the Dao Soldier Formation could not operate smoothly because Profound Steel and Profound Iron were heavily injured. Naturally, the power of the Dao Soldier Formation would decrease as well. Spiritual Master Xuan Liang made a prompt decision and immediately ordered everyone to retreat towards the island's protective formation.
Just as everyone was about to retreat back to Frost Island, a late Core Forging Great Asura who was fighting Spiritual Master Xuan Yu suddenly attacked the great army formation formed by Spiritual Master Xuan Liang and the others after receiving a blow from Spiritual Master Xuan Yu.
At this moment, because everyone was about to retreat to the island, they had already begun to slack off. They did not expect that this Asura would actually ignore Sage Xuanyu's attack and forcefully attack. For a moment, they were all caught unprepared.
Perfected Xuan Liang shouted and tried his best to command everyone to activate the Dao soldier formation, intending to maximize everyone's defense.
The protective formation around the eight of them was about to run out of energy. The Three Talents and Five Elements had combined into one, but they suddenly realized that Wang Qi had used an extremely strange defensive technique.
Perfected Xuan Liang's heart moved, and he shouted, "Use Xuan Qi's protection divine ability!" Everyone channeled their Quintessential Essence into the huge tortoiseshell shield that Wang Qi had conjured with the Dao Soldier Formation.
Ka-cha!
There was a shattering sound. Although Wang Qi's defensive divine art had been shattered by Asura's unexpected attack, it still managed to block the attack. Wang Qi felt a great force coming from the shattered tortoiseshell shield. Including Reverend Xuan Liang and the others, they were all thrown backwards by this great force and fell onto Frost Island.
The Great Asura had forcefully taken a blow from Reverend Xuan Yu, and its back was smashed to pieces by countless raindrops.
The Asura turned around and fled. It was about to shake off Reverend Xuan Yu who was chasing after it, but a cold light shot towards it and pierced through its heart.
Reverend Du Feng withdrew his sword and stood. Reverend Xuan Yu seemed to be very dissatisfied with Reverend Du Feng's interference, and turned around to attack the other Great Asura without even greeting him.
But at this time, Reverend Du Feng's cry of shock entered Reverend Xuan Yu's ears, "Watch out!"
Reverend Xuan Yu's heart tightened. His intuition from two to three hundred years of life and death battles told him that he was most likely facing a moment of life and death.
Reverend Xuan Yu tried his best to shake off this feeling of being on the edge of life and death, but it was to no avail. This feeling only grew stronger.
A furious roar that seemed to come from Heaven's Laozu came from Frost Island, "You dare!"
Yet this voice was the last call Reverend Xuan Yu heard. Then, he felt that Reverend Du Feng seemed to be trying to save him with all his strength, but his own consciousness seemed to be frozen by a strange coldness and thrown into a bottomless abyss. His vision was quickly swallowed by darkness.
Lu Ping had appeared on the battlefield before Heaven's Laozu, but he only had time to save Du Feng who was trying to kill Reverend Xuan Yu together with him. Reverend Xuan Yu himself had turned into countless pieces of ice and fell towards the sea surface. Not even his bones were left!
