Although Lu Ping was sent flying by the Blood Shura, he still had the Linglong Wine Cauldron to protect him. Although the Linglong Wine Cauldron could not be considered a defensive spiritual treasure, it was still a treasure that had survived the lightning calamity. No matter how weak its defensive capabilities were, it would not be weaker than a top-notch spirit-nurturing treasure. Furthermore, Lu Ping had taken many pills to strengthen his physical body, so his physical strength was already comparable to that of a Dharma adept. Hence, although he was sent flying by the Blood Shura, and although it was shocking, he did not suffer any serious internal injuries.
Tian Shu Laozu leaped over to Lu Ping and looked up. "How are your injuries?"
Lu Ping smiled. "I'm fine!"
Tian Shu Laozu nodded and turned to leave.
Lu Ping looked at the Zhenling disciples around him and asked, "Uncle-Master, what's the situation like?"
Perfected Xuan Sen said worriedly, "It's not good. Although our sect had already predicted it, and Uncle-Master Tian Xue and Senior Brother Tian Shu had rushed back in time, no one expected that there would be so many demonic cultivators in hiding. Furthermore, they had formed such a Dao Soldier Formation. This power is really unexpected. More than a hundred Blood Condensation disciples had their divine senses dispersed in an instant. Even three Core Forging disciples had their divine senses disrupted due to carelessness. The rest had even more divine senses and divine senses damaged."
Lu Ping was shocked. "So many? Isn't it covered by the island's protective formation? "
If a Blood Condensation Realm disciple lost his divine sense, he would be no different from a zombie. Even a Core Forging Realm disciple would die if his divine sense was disrupted.
This was different from Perfected Xuan Sen's battle outside Ying Tian Dojo. Only their divine senses were severely damaged, but they did not lose their foundation. They could still recover with the help of the Soul Return Pill.
Daoist Master Xuan Sen shook his head and sighed. "I'm afraid that many of the highly regarded fourth generation disciples have been left with internal injuries this time. Their future achievements will be limited. Even those Core Forging Realm disciples with damaged divine senses, although they have enough Soul Return Pills to treat their injuries, I'm afraid that their cultivation time will be extended and their hopes of advancing further will be cut off."
As the two of them spoke, they began to gather their disciples. At the same time, they retreated along with the shrinking of the Zhen Ling Sect's island-guarding formation so that they could gather the last of their strength to resist Mo Luo's attack. After all, the Soul Devouring Formation formed by the devil cultivators would not only launch this attack.
"How are the other sects?"
"Worse!"
Enlightened Master Xuan Sen and Lu Ping retreated as the island's protective array formation shrank. At the same time, they were also blocking the Shura's attacks so that the disciples could carry away the dead or heavily injured disciples.
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion in the sky. Lu Ping's expression changed. "Oh no, Uncle-Master Tiancheng is injured. Uncle-Master, go and help him. Leave this to me!"
Lu Ping also took out the Fated Autumn Sword and the Thin Water Sword. The four flying swords moved in all directions, and dozens of Shuras, including the three Grand Shuras, were sent flying. The Shuras' attack suddenly stopped. Perfected Xuan Sen took the opportunity to leave and brought Tiancheng Laozu, who was also sent flying, back to the protective formation.
Tiancheng Laozu's appearance was much worse than Lu Ping's. His energy was dissipating, and Lu Ping's heart sank. A Dharma adept's body and Dharma power were one, and their energy was restrained. If the core space was not broken, there would not be any energy dissipating. However, once a Dharma adept's energy dissipated, even if it was not life-threatening, there would be no hope of improving in the future.
From afar, Tiancheng Laozu's laughter could be heard. "That guy did not get any benefits either. Although he was not injured, his accompanying spiritual treasure has already been destroyed by the Old Man. Who knows, he might have to create a new accompanying spiritual treasure!"
In the distance, Perfected Xuan Sen's face was so gloomy that it could drip water. The spirit pills in his hand were poured into Tiancheng Laozu's mouth as if they were free.
Another muffled sound could be heard. Tianshan Laozu had finally escaped from the Blood Shura. Lu Ping could clearly see that the Mountain Driving Whip in Laozu's hand was trembling slightly.
Fortunately, Tianshan Laozu's expression was calm. It was obvious that even though he was at a disadvantage in that attack, he did not suffer a great loss. Tianshan Laozu's defensive powers were not for nothing.
In the sky above Frost Island, only Tianfan Laozu was left fighting with the Jade Shura. However, without Tian Xue and Laozu working together, Tianfan Laozu's ability was not much better than the other mid Dharma adepts. Although he had the Wind Snow Fans in his hand, it was still only a first-disaster spiritual treasure. Under the Jade Shura's relentless attacks, he was slowly losing ground.
However, at this moment, Tianfan Laozu could only hold on. If Tianfan Laozu also retreated into the island's protective formation, the destructive power of an unrestrained Jade Shura was not something that Tianfan and Tian Xue Laozu could defend even if they retreated into the protective formation. After all, the protective formation was just an inanimate object.
However, Tian Xue Laozu did not dare to leave the protective formation. Tian Cheng Laozu was heavily injured, Tian Shu Laozu was not strong enough, and Tianshan Laozu had exhausted too much energy. Lu Ping had just received an attack that had shaken the entire Zhenling. At this moment, Tian Xue Laozu was like Zhenling's stabilizing force. If she left, when the demonic cultivators used their Soul Devouring powers for the second time, Zhenling would collapse.
Buzz!
A formless fluctuation could be felt once again. The hundreds of demonic cultivators relied on the Dao Soldier Formation to activate their Soul Devouring powers!
With a thought, the small banner that Lu Ping had refined appeared in Lu Ping's hand. Lu Ping poured his Zhen Yuan into the small banner without any regard for his life. The small banner that was originally the size of a palm immediately expanded to the size of three feet.
Lu Ping grabbed the small banner in his hand and waved it with all his might. On the surface of the small banner, white clouds appeared. Layers upon layers of clouds appeared. The misty clouds covered a third of the protective formation that Zhenling was in!
Following that, the strange fluctuation of the Soul Devouring powers arrived one after another. The clouds were suddenly compressed to a fourth of their original size. After that, they slowly returned to their original size. As for the cultivators that were covered by the clouds, most of them were safe and sound. Only the cultivators that were at the edge of the clouds were protected by the Soul Devouring powers. Under the protection of the protective formation and their own bodies, only a few of them were injured!
However, in the areas where the clouds were not covered by the small banner, Zhenling suffered heavy casualties. Forty to fifty Blood Condensation Realm cultivators had fallen, and four Core Forging Realm cultivators had fallen. Coincidentally, these four cultivators were the ones whose divine sense had been damaged by the Soul Devouring powers.
Even so, everyone in Zhenling was still cheering. Tian Xue Laozu had long discovered the abnormality. She could no longer be bothered to help Xuan Chen defend the protective formation. She directly tore through space and appeared beside Lu Ping. The joy in her eyes was so bright that it could even hurt Lu Ping's eyes.
"Hang the cloud sail?"
Tian Xue Laozu looked at the small banner in Lu Ping's hand. It had already returned to the size of a palm and was being dyed a bluish-purple color by Lu Ping's Zhen Yuan. She asked straightforwardly.
After the small banner was attacked by the Soul Devouring powers for the second time, the runes on the small banner had already covered more than half of the banner. Lu Ping was currently refining these runes with all his might. After blocking the second attack from the Demonic Cultivator Dao Soldier, how could Lu Ping be careless with this small banner? This small banner might have already become the key treasure for the cultivators on Frost Island to last until the reinforcements arrived.
While Lu Ping was refining it with all his might, he was unwilling to be distracted by speaking. He could only give Tian Xue Laozu an unclear look.
Tian Xue Laozu naturally understood that they were in a race against time. She did not disturb Lu Ping from refining the small banner. She took a step back and disappeared. Once again, she returned to the center of the protective formation to help Xuan Chen repair the protective formation.
This time, Zhenling's casualties had been reduced by half. The cultivators who were gathered above the spirit mine in the center of Frost Island could naturally see it clearly. Many of the cultivators were quick-witted and had already linked Lu Ping's small banner to the cloud sail.
This was especially so for the cultivators of Blue Sea Sect. First, they saw Lu Ping using the Thin Water Flowing Sword to fight against Blood Asura. Now, they saw Laozu's cloud sail. All of them looked at Lu Ping like hungry wolves. They wanted to skin him alive!
Compared to Zhenling, the casualties of the cultivators of the various sects made the dharma idol Laozu feel sad. After the second attack of the Soul Devouring powers, even though the cultivators of the various sects worked together to resist it, this time, not only did hundreds of Blood Condensation cultivators die, more than thirty Core Forging cultivators also died.
This time, it was really a serious blow!
Originally, the combined strength of the various sects far surpassed Zhenling. Even if Zhenling had Lu Ping's miraculous small banner, the casualties of the various sects were only about the same as Zhenling's.
However, one should not forget that Zhen Ling Sect's foundation was much deeper than that of the other sects. Over the past hundred years, the number of Core Forging cultivators in Zhen Ling Sect had more than doubled. Although it was painful to lose seven or eight of them at once, even if Daoist Xuanyu was a disciple who was equivalent to a direct disciple, it was not a big deal.
However, the various sects were different. For example, Ling Gu Sect, Soaring Feather Sect, and Chong Ming Sect. Although they were also considered large sects, the number of Core Forging Stage cultivators in their entire sect was no more than thirty to fifty people. Losing three to five of them at once was practically equivalent to losing a tenth of their foundation.
Even the other sects, such as Hai Yan Sect, Shui Yan Pavilion, Xuan Ling Sect, and Blue Sea Sect, which had much stronger foundations, losing these cultivators was not just painful, it was like carving out their flesh.
As they spoke, the Great Cultivation Formation's Soul Devouring Divine Art had already been used for the third time. The two great island protection formations on Frost Island had shrunk once again. Zhenling's great protection formation had even shrunk to half of its original size. However, facing this attack that was stronger than the last, the various sects' Laozu all felt anxious.
However, before that strange Soul Devouring Divine Art could descend on Zhenling's great protection formation, they saw a three meter long banner slowly rise from the top of Zhenling's defensive area. More than half of the banner's surface flowed with mysterious runes and once again transformed into layers of clouds. The misty cloud light actually covered the entire island protection formation after it had shrunk!
The various sects' cultivators at the center of Frost Island once again suffered heavy casualties. However, this time, Zhenling was safe and sound!
However, after this small banner was attacked by the Great Cultivation Formation for the third time, the runes that had originally covered more than half of the banner's surface suddenly quickly extended again. The entire banner abruptly lit up.
At the same time, a distant bell suddenly rang from the back of the Great Cultivation Formation!
Clang!
The entire Great Cultivation Formation instantly fell into chaos and collapsed!
