Gu Ying was a cultivator from Jadewave Island, one of the 72 islands in the Southern Sea. He was an inner sect disciple. This time, Jadewave Island had accepted the invitation of Silver Sand Island to come and help them deal with Iron Buddha Temple.
The Iron Buddha Temple was nothing to the Seventy-two Islands of the South Sea. However, the Iron Buddha Temple's actions this time made the people of the Seventy-two Islands of the South Sea very angry. The Iron Buddha Temple actually occupied a small island within the territory of the Silver Sand Island. If the Iron Buddha Temple really occupied the island, then the Seventy-two Islands of the South Sea would lose face.
One must know that the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea have always regarded the islands as their exclusive property. If the Iron Buddha Temple really occupied one of the islands, then they wouldn't agree to it.
Moreover, the Iron Buddha Temple didn't only represent their sect, it also represented the Buddhist Sect. If the Iron Buddha Temple really gained a foothold in the Southern Sea, then the Buddhist Sect could use this island as a springboard to extend their hands into the Southern Sea. This was something that the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea would never agree to.
One must know that because the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea were located in the Southern Sea, they could explore the sea and obtain endless resources. Therefore, the 72 Islands of the Southern Sea weren't any poorer than the sects of the Sword Spirit Continent. They might even be richer. Therefore, they didn't care about the crystal lode, but they would never agree to let the Iron Buddha Temple occupy the island.
It was precisely because of this reason that when the Silver Sand Island came to invite the Jadewave Island, they immediately showed up. Moreover, they sent out 500 disciples and a few big Manta Ray Fishes. These Manta Ray Fishes were the signature beasts of the Jadewave Island. However, it would take a few hundred years for these fishes to grow up. As these fishes grow up, their strength would naturally increase as well. They could be considered as a very powerful beast.
However, the Silver Sea Island's people still had a conscience. They didn't arrange for the Iron Buddha Temple's people to attack the island. Instead, they arranged for the Iron Buddha Temple's people to be at the back. Once the Iron Buddha Temple's people break through the island, the Silver Sea Island's people would swarm in and chase the Iron Buddha Temple's people away.
Just as Gu Ying's attention was focused on the island in front of him, he suddenly heard a strange sound. It sounded like something piercing through the air. This sound was covered by the sounds of the island being attacked, so it wasn't particularly conspicuous. He didn't notice it at first, but as the sound got louder and louder, he noticed it. When he turned his head towards the direction of the sound, his expression greatly changed.
Not far away from them, ten huge iron lotus platforms were rushing towards them. The petals on the iron lotus platforms were constantly spinning. With one look, one could tell that the attack power was extraordinary. Most importantly, they recognized the iron lotus platforms. They were the Iron Buddha Temple's Grand Dharma Artifacts!
When did the people of the Iron Buddha Temple come here? Gu Ying couldn't help but have this thought. But just as he thought of this, the Iron Lotus Platforms were getting closer and closer to them. He immediately reacted and shouted, "Be careful, the Iron Lotus Platforms!"
However, just as he shouted, the Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple had already arrived in front of them and rushed past them. The iron petals on the Iron Lotus Platform were like saws that cut through the manta ray's body. In an instant, minced meat and blood splattered all over Gu Ying's body.
A huge wound appeared on the body of the Manta Ray. Even a part of its tail was broken. The Manta Ray screamed and couldn't fly anymore. It fell directly from the sky.
Gu Ying was already prepared. He flew up directly, so he wasn't affected at all. However, the other cultivators on the Manta Ray were all shocked. The stronger ones naturally flew up, but the outer sect disciples couldn't fly at all. They fell down with the Manta Ray. At the same time, they also screamed. Although they hadn't landed on the ground yet, they were still very scared.
Gu Ying was stunned. Then, his expression changed. He flew down and chased after an outer sect disciple. He pulled him back and then went to save another.
However, he could only save two people at most. He couldn't save the others. He watched as those outer sect disciples fell directly from the sky to the sea. Each and every one of them had their bones broken and tendons torn. They couldn't be any more dead than this.
Gu Ying's eyes were red as he looked at the dead disciples. They were all disciples of the Emerald Wave Island. How could he not be heartbroken when they fell to their deaths?
However, there was nothing he could do. He turned his head and looked at the Iron Lotus Platforms of the Iron Buddha Temple. He found that the ten Iron Lotus Platforms had already flown far away, but they seemed to be slowly coming to a stop.
Gu Ying immediately turned his head and flew to another Manta Ray. He put the two outer sect disciples on it, but he didn't know what to do next.
When the Iron Lotus Platform flew past him, he saw that it was bigger than the Emerald Wave Island's Manta Ray. Even if he used his artifacts to attack it, it would be useless. He really didn't know what to do now.
At this time, the rear of the formation was also in chaos. No one thought that the people of the Iron Buddha Temple would suddenly appear behind them and attack them ruthlessly. This caused them to lose more than a dozen sea beasts. Most importantly, there were outer sect disciples on top of these sea beasts. These outer sect disciples couldn't fly, so they fell to their deaths. Hundreds of outer sect disciples had fallen to their deaths. How could they not be heartbroken?
However, this wasn't the end. The Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple turned around once more. This time, they rushed towards the edge of the formation and injured several sea beasts. By the time the other sea beasts wanted to pursue them, they had already escaped far away.
However, the people of the South Sea Alliance weren't fools. They immediately thought of a way to deal with the Iron Lotus Platforms of the Iron Buddha Temple. They would gather some sea beasts and wait for the Iron Lotus Platforms to rush over. Then they would use their techniques to attack the Iron Lotus Platforms. Although this wouldn't hurt the Iron Lotus Platforms, they could still use the power of their techniques to push the Iron Lotus Platforms away. This way, the Iron Lotus Platforms wouldn't be able to hurt them.
Zhao Hai stood on top of the Iron Lotus Platform. When he saw that the other party thought of this method, he couldn't help but nod. Then he said, "They're quite smart. They thought of a way to deal with it so quickly. Ancestor, let's withdraw first, lest they come back to kill us."
Wu Du also nodded and didn't say anything. Although they only killed about 20 warbeasts this time, Wu Du wasn't greedy. Such a number was already a lot, and he was very satisfied.
When the people of the South Sea Alliance saw the Iron Lotus Platforms flying away, they felt relieved. However, the Iron Buddha Temple's attack made them very surprised. They didn't think that the Iron Buddha Temple's attack would be so fierce. Moreover, it was so unpredictable.
When Wu Du and the others flew some distance and couldn't see the South Sea Alliance anymore, Wu Du commanded the Iron Lotus Platforms to stop. Then he turned to Zhao Hai and laughed, "Good kid, good, very good. This will certainly make those guys worry for a while. The pressure on the island will also be reduced."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Martial Ancestor, we still have to attack. We can't let them rest. This time, I'll have to ask Martial Ancestor to put away the Iron Lotus Platforms. Then we'll fly a bit higher until we reach the top of the South Sea Alliance's head. Martial Ancestor, you can release the Iron Lotus Platforms and make them bigger. Then we'll use them to smash down on their most secret location. This time, we'll be able to injure a lot of them." Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Martial Ancestor, we still have to attack.
Wu Du's eyes lit up, then he nodded and said, "That's a good idea. However, you can't follow us. When the iron lotus platform falls, it would lose its power and wouldn't be able to fly. This would also affect people. In order to control the iron lotus platform, we need to sit on it. I'm afraid your body isn't strong enough. Therefore, you can wait here. We'll go by ourselves. Don't worry, we'll make sure to come back after smashing it."
Zhao Hai nodded. Then Wu Du turned to Ze Wei and said, "Ze Wei, you stay here and take care of Jing Hai."
Ze Wei nodded, then he took Zhao Hai and flew up. Then a Ruyi Scepter appeared beneath their feet. The two stood on the Ruyi Scepter while Wu Du and the others shrunk their Iron Lotus Platforms and received them. Then they turned around and flew back.
Seeing Wu Du and the others fly away, Ze Wei turned to Zhao Hai and smiled, "Jing Hai, you're quite amazing. You can even think of such a method. Hahaha. This time, the South Sea Alliance will suffer."
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "The South Sea Alliance has too many people. Even if we lose some, there would still be a lot of people left. Doing this would only disrupt their attack rhythm and make them attack the island with all their strength. Although the pressure on us would be great, it would also make them less stable. Only when they become impatient would we have a chance. If they continue to advance steadily like this, then even if we have good arrangements, we wouldn't be able to do anything."
Ze Wei nodded and said, "Indeed. This time, they've been too steady. When they attacked the island, they used spells and came in batches. Even if we want to deal with them, we don't have a good way to deal with them. Now, we can only hope that we can force them into a corner. This way, we might have a chance."
While the two were talking, Wu Du and the others had already snuck into the South Sea Alliance's airspace. Because they were flying directly, their target was very small. And since they were flying higher than the South Sea Alliance, the South Sea Alliance didn't notice them. Wu Du and the others snuck into the airspace above the South Sea Alliance and looked down. Then Wu Du found a place where the South Sea Alliance's people were most concentrated. As long as they hit the center, they wouldn't be able to hide. Because of this, Wu Du stopped and turned to the others and said, "Spread out and release your iron lotus platforms. Calculate the distance. After releasing your iron lotus platforms, make sure that they aren't too far away. Then let's go."
The others nodded and then spread out. Everyone calculated the distance and felt that it was enough. Then they released their iron lotus platforms. Then the iron lotus platforms absorbed their thoughts and became bigger. Then they jumped onto the platforms. Then the iron lotus platforms seemed to have lost their gravity. They looked like giant meteorites as they fell from the sky.
Although the South Sea Alliance's people already noticed the iron lotus platforms when Wu Du and the others made them bigger, it was too late for them to react. Therefore, they could only watch as the iron lotus platforms fell and hit the center of their formation.
This time, the battle beasts in the middle of the formation, as well as the people on the battle beasts, were all smashed into meat paste. A large open space was created in the middle of the formation.
The iron lotus platform fell for nearly a hundred meters before it stopped. Then it flew directly into the distance and disappeared in a blink of an eye. This made the South Sea Alliance's people unable to find it.
Moreover, the Iron Lotus Platform's attack this time was even more ruthless than the previous two attacks. Because it was smashed at the place with the most people, this time, there were several thousand casualties. Among them, there were two to three thousand casualties. This number was not small.
When Wu Du and the others returned to Ze Wei and Zhao Hai, the two got on Wu Du's iron lotus platform. Wu Du stood on the iron lotus platform as he laughed and said, "This attack is even more ruthless. I think the South Sea Alliance's people must be anxious. Jing Hai, what do you plan to do next?"
Zhao Hai said, "Ancestor, after these attacks, the South Sea Alliance's people will definitely be more careful. They will certainly speed up their attacks on the shield. Moreover, their formation will also be pulled apart. I think they will use their battle beasts to hit the island's shield because they know that our iron lotus platforms are not on the island. Therefore, we should go back and prepare to fight them on the island."
Wu Du nodded and said, "Alright, then let's go back. We'll go back from the sea, but don't be discovered by those guys. Otherwise, they will certainly intercept us in the sea. We're not their opponents in the sea. Their battle beasts are almost all sea beasts. Once they enter the sea, they'll be like fish in water." After Wu Du said that, he signaled to the others. All the iron lotuses slowly entered the water and dived towards the island. It didn't take long for them to return to the island. Then they drilled out of the water. As soon as they came out of the water, they could feel the shield shaking. At the same time, there were bursts of rumbling sounds.
Wu Du turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Jing Hai, don't go back yet. Stay on the Iron Lotus Platform and watch me command it. The Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple is a famous large artifact in the Sword Spirit Realm. You might be able to use it in the future, so you need to get used to it. Let the others command it and let them get used to it. Otherwise, if they have to rely on you in the future, you might die from exhaustion. Even if you don't die from exhaustion, you wouldn't have time to cultivate in the future. Remember, cultivators are all fake, only their own strength is real. Do you understand?"
Do you understand? "Zhao Hai nodded. He stood on the iron lotus platform and didn't go down.
