The two sides reached a balance. The Seven Stars Alliance was unable to destroy the Blood Shark, and the Blood Shark was unable to fight with the Seven Stars Alliance for the big island.
This situation had been going on for more than two thousand years. Currently, neither side had the intention to take down the other in one fell swoop. Even if there were conflicts, they were just small skirmishes.
Wang Daoyuan liked this situation very much. If the two sides were idle and did something big, then the rogue cultivators would have no place to stay. They could only become scapegoats between the two forces.
He could no longer appear as a rogue cultivator. He could only find a backer.
Even if he was a disciple of a big force, it was better than being a scapegoat.
However, if he joined some forces, he would lose his basic freedom, and it would be easy to expose his secrets.
Both sides maintained a basic peace, so he did not need to find a backer.
A month passed very quickly. Wang Daoyuan was in his newly opened cave abode, modifying sword cultivation Dharma spells.
He was just mingling with this demon hunter team to gather information. There was no need to expose his strength.
The sword cultivation spells he used before, the Sword Shadow Holy Light Technique and the Demon Slaying Sword, were too powerful.
Moreover, both of them were related to ancient spells. There might be people here who could recognize them.
The power of the Ten Thousand Sword Art was too weak. It was a bit difficult to deal with cultivators of the same level.
It was not enough to deal with those thick-skinned demon beasts.
The power of the Sky Sealing Sword Prison was not bad, but once it was used, the demon beasts would become dumpling fillings.
He had already mastered the sword aura transformation technique. It was not difficult to create his own sword cultivation spells.
Wang Daoyuan combined the Sword Shadow Holy Light Technique and the Sky Sealing Sword Prison to create a spell that could release 36 sword shadows at the same time.
This way, when he used the Sky Sealing Sword Prison, its power would be greatly increased.
He had been studying this spell for a long time.
When he was drifting on the sea, he studied it for a period of time.
Now, there was a prototype. The 36 sword shadows could be used to defend, attack, and also to use the Sky Sealing Sword Prison.
The power of a single sword shadow was not even 10% of the full power of the White Tiger Blade. It was still far inferior to the Sword Shadow Holy Light Technique.
However, it was still easy to deal with cultivators of the same level.
During this period of time, he had been perfecting this technique.
Uncle Zhong's voice came from outside the cave, "Daoyou Zhou, it's time to go."
Wang Daoyuan put away the things in the cave, got up and walked out.
There were a total of six people in this demon-hunting team, including him. Aside from the three people he already knew, there were two other late Aurous Core stage cultivators, named Ding Ming and Jiang Yi.
The combat strength of these two people was not very good. They mainly played a supporting role.
Ding Ming was an Array Master, while Jiang Yi was an Alchemist. They also had several powerful healing spells.
At the same time, Jiang Yi was also a poison cultivator and had refined a lot of poisons to lure demonic beasts.
Of course, there were quite a few poisons that could kill demonic beasts. It was just that the poisoned demonic beasts were not easy to sell.
Hunting demonic beasts had to be done swiftly. Once the stalemate was reached, it would be troublesome whether it was attracting other demonic beasts or wandering cultivators.
If he could set up a formation, it would naturally be much easier to kill the Demonic Beasts. It would also be easier to kill them in one strike.
These two people were not old, and there were no obvious signs of aging on their bodies. They were at most 400 years old.
As wandering cultivators, they could have such a cultivation level before 400 years old. These two people were quite talented.
The division of labor in the team was quite clear. Liang Feng walked the path of body refinement, and his body was extremely strong.
If they encountered demonic beasts that resisted more fiercely, he would be the meat shield and resist the demonic beasts head-on.
Uncle Zhong and the Black Ice Fairy were stronger, so they were the main attackers.
In the past, there was a cultivator who was good at escaping and hiding. His main task was to search for traces of demonic beasts.
Not long ago, he was killed by demonic beasts, and Wang Daoyuan took his place.
Wang Daoyuan, Ding Ming, and Jiang Yi got to know each other. Uncle Zhong took out a Tier-3 flying boat. "Get on the boat. The Black Shark Reef is more than 10,000 miles away from here. It will consume too much spiritual power to fly there directly."
This flying boat was more than 50 feet long, and it was still very spacious for six people.
Wang Daoyuan was not familiar with the others, so he did not say anything along the way.
The flying boat was not slow. It traveled about 6,000 miles in two hours. Soon, they arrived at the Black Shark Reef.
This was a coral island. The reef was not small, with a diameter of more than 1,000 miles. The part that was exposed to the sea was not big.
Moreover, it was in pieces and did not form a whole.
There were naturally many low-level fish in places with coral reefs.
These fish attracted a large number of demonic beasts to come and look for food. For demonic beasts, devouring spiritual objects was still an important part of cultivation.
Wang Daoyuan scanned the surroundings with his Divine Sense and found many Tier-1 and Tier-2 spiritual fish.
There were no other human cultivators on the Black Shark Reef.
The flying boat landed on the largest reef. This reef was more than two miles in diameter, and there were some low-level plants growing on it. It could also be considered an island.
Uncle Zhong said, "Daoyou Zhou, you will investigate where there are traces of demonic beasts."
Wang Daoyuan did not say anything. He released more than 300 Tier-2 superior-grade Soul-Chasing Bees and spread out to look for traces of demonic beasts.
More than two hours later, most of the Soul-Chasing Bees returned. Those that did not return should not be able to come back.
The Soul-Chasing Bees that returned had scouted the situation within 2,000 miles.
Wang Daoyuan planted 10 acres of Demonic Soul Grass in the space of the Spiritual Pearl to help spirit beasts and Soul-Chasing Bees gain intelligence.
These Soul-Chasing Bees often drank the nectar of the Demonic Soul Grass, so their intelligence had improved slightly. Now, they could communicate with Wang Daoyuan more clearly.
He said to everyone, "2,000 miles east of us, there are more than a dozen silver-gray sharks that are besieging a school of fish.
More than 1,000 miles northwest of us, there are five cetacean demonic beasts with long whiskers that are searching for prey.
More than 500 miles west of us, there are two black sharks that are chasing after several demonic beasts that look like seals. They have entered the reef area.
The Soul-Chasing Bees' ranks are too low. They don't dare to get too close, so they can't detect the demonic beasts' ranks. "
A satisfied smile appeared on Uncle Zhong's face. "Daoyou's Spiritual Bees are indeed powerful. They can detect so carefully.
It's enough to know their general appearance and species. We often hunt demonic beasts in this area. As long as we know the general appearance of the demonic beasts, we can guess what kind of demonic beasts they are. Their ranks are not a problem.
The one to the east should be a Silver-Scaled Shark, the one to the northwest should be a Baleen Whale, and the one to the west should be a Jadefill Shark.
Only a few of these Jadefill Sharks can grow to the fifth rank. Most of them stay at the upper grade of the fourth rank.
Their skin is extremely tough and is an excellent material for making soft armor.
Their fins are also one of the top delicacies in the Sea Of Seven Stars. Their teeth are also excellent materials for making tools.
With our strength, we can still take down two Jadefill Sharks.
Ding Ming, you start setting up the formation.
Jiang Yi, I'll leave the job of luring the Jadefill Sharks to you. "
The Black Ice Fairy also said, "If this Jadefill Shark is an adult, its strength should be equivalent to a second-rate Gold Core.
I'll have to trouble Daoyou and Liang Feng to hold off one of them. Uncle Zhong and I will kill the other one as soon as possible.
If time permits, we'll take down both of them.
If time permits, we'll quit while we're ahead. "
Wang Daoyuan naturally had no objections. He could even deal with a fifth rank Jadefill Shark for a while.
Jiang Yi took out a jade gourd and poured out a drop of dark red liquid into the seawater west of the reef.
This liquid exuded a strong smell of blood. It was extremely attractive to demonic beasts like sharks that were extremely sensitive to the smell of blood.
Ding Ming also took out a formation plate and set up a formation in the nearby coral reef.
Wang Daoyuan released the Soul Chasing Bees to continue probing the demonic beasts' movements.
After more than a hundred breaths of time, the two Jadefill Sharks in the west quickly swam towards them.
Ding Ming's movements were extremely fast. In less than two hundred breaths of time, he had finished setting up all the formation plates and loaded them with upper-grade spirit stones.
Everyone hid in the vegetation, waiting for the Jadefill Sharks to enter the formation.
