After the previous collision, Tao Zhenren had some understanding of this talisman. He waved the formation flag again and activated the formation Qi to defend. Sizzle.
After the silver awl pierced through the formation a few times, there was a slight delay in the operation of the formation.
Tao Zhenren frowned slightly. Usually, the Mountain Guarding Formation was connected to the spiritual vigor of the earth veins or simply built with the help of real treasures. However, on the Fengling Ocean, there was insufficient spiritual vigor. Hence, he could only use precious materials and formation flags to link the scattered islands together. He also placed his own immortal palace at the eye of the formation.
However, after all, the spiritual vigor here was weaker. After the array Qi was dispersed, it would take a while for it to gather again. Encountering such a true weapon that specialized in breaking arrays, if one were to be on guard and not counterattack, it would only be a matter of time before the forbidden array was broken.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Mi Zhenren wanted to attack a few times but was stopped by Tao Zhenren. Tao Zhenren was displeased and said, "Fellow Daoist, I know that you are trying to tempt me to release my talisman. However, given the current situation, what else can I do?"
Tao Zhenren looked at the sky and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't worry. I have a pair of Golden Vermillion Birds. They can peck at all kinds of treasured weapons. If there is a crisis later, I can release them to fight against the enemy."
Mi Zhenren was surprised. She knew that Tao Zhenren had inherited the skills of the Nanhua Sect and was able to raise rare spiritual beasts. Since the Golden Vermillion Birds could break the real weapons, they must be very rare. She asked, "Are you really willing to give them to me?"
Tao Zhenren said, "If we let the spiritual beasts go, we can get them again after some time. However, real treasures are different. We only have two in our hands. If they are damaged, we will lose the next move. Only with them in our hands, Yuxiao will not dare to attack us with full force."
Mi Zhenren could not help but become silent.
In the past half a day, under the passive defense, the formation Qi had lost too much. They could not replenish it in time and the silver awl rushed straight into the formation.
A beam of clear light rose from the top of Tao Zhenren's head, from which a bird with fiery feathers flew out. Its beak was long and its neck was thin like a crane. With a flap of its wings, it shot out like lightning towards the silver awl.
When the two of them collided, it sounded like a bell being struck. The spirit bird let out a mournful cry as its beak was cut off and its feathers scattered down. However, the silver awl's momentum was also blocked for a moment. However, it was a real treasure after all, so it was not injured at all and continued to rush down.
Who would have thought that at this moment, another huge Vermilion Bird would fly out from below. It grabbed the awl with its claws and pecked at it fiercely. The silver awl shuddered. Just as it was about to peck a second time, an arrow suddenly flew out from the clouds and hit the spirit bird. It twitched and a trace of grief flashed in its eyes before it took its own life and fell from the sky.
The silver awl turned and transformed into a white-clothed woman. There seemed to be a wound on his cheek, so he covered his face. Then he flew away.
In the Yuxiao school, Zhou Ruying was sitting in the cave while a shadow clone floated beside her. The two of them were looking at the battle situation on the Fengling Ocean through a large mirror in front of them.
After watching for a while, she said, "Senior brother, Just Now, why did you make a move? If you don't, after a few more rounds, he might not be able to endure it and take out his real treasure. "
The shadow disagreed and said, "Tao Zhenhong has already seen through our intentions, so this plan is useless. Let's kill one of his birds first and see how many more he can release. "
According to the sect's original plan, they would first lure out the magical treasures in Tao and Mi's hands, then with the strength of Yuxiao and the rest, they would find a way to break it and then they would be at their mercy. However, up until now, the other side had not responded in this way, so it was obvious that they were already prepared for this. Since that was the case, they might as well reduce their current battle strength.
Zhou Ruying's expression changed, she stared at the mirror and said, "Senior brother, it's Zhenren Kangzheng making a move."
Tao Zhenren comforted the remaining injured golden bird and put it back into the clear light. At this moment, he suddenly had a strange feeling, he looked up and saw a large copper plate flying down from the clouds. There was a hole in the middle, it was extremely thick and heavy, as it spun, it revealed the Xuan Diagram, Star Constellation, and Yuanwei lines.
However, at this time, the formation had already closed up, it could be considered that they had survived the first round, if the other side wanted to open up the situation, they would have to start all over again.
As soon as he thought of this, his expression turned cold, he saw that beside the copper plate in the clouds, two more magical treasures appeared. On the left was an Iron Feather Flying Fan, each feather was like a blade, with a wave of the wind, a few of them flew along with the air, making a 'shua shua' sound. On the right was a Golden Leaf Banana, a drop of clear dew was stuck on the leaf, rolling here and there, as if it could drop at any time.
Mi Zhenren's voice was heard, "Fellow Daoist Tao, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with."
Tao Zhenren understood what she meant, there were only two of them, Yuxiao school had the advantage in numbers, if they were to take turns to attack, it would be difficult to deal with them, just like the silver awl Just Now, it looked like it was injured, but in reality, it could be back after being refined for a couple of days, and at that time, they would no longer have the golden bird to defend them.
But he knew Mi Zhenren's temperament, she often said things that did not match her heart, and he could not be provoked, so he deliberately sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Mi, I'm afraid this time it's difficult, unless Qincang school starts a war with Yuxiao school right now, otherwise they won't make a move, so we can only rely on our own strength."
Mi Zhenren snorted and said, "Even if they don't come, do you think I'm afraid of Yuxiao? Look at my Chongyue Zhen Temple, the Wuzhen opened the mountain gate, the Qi of Yin and Yang are rampant, we have fought with your Dongzhou Xuanmen for thousands of years, haven't we not lost? Fellow Daoist Tao, if you're afraid, you should retreat early, I alone will be enough! "
Tao Zhenren smiled and did not reply.
Just like what he said, Qincang school may not send people to help, but they would not sit and watch, as long as they held on, they would most likely lend a hand.
In the Ninth Heaven, Zhang Yan was sitting in the Green Sky Hall, he was also watching the movement above the South China Sea.
He saw a few stars twinkling in the sky, there were even more dazzling starlight spewing down, hitting the formation, the formation Qi within thousands of miles scattered.
He could see that on Yuxiao's side, at least five Grotto-Heavens joined forces to launch this attack, there might be more hiding behind the scenes and did not make a move.
But this was the problem, Just Now, if they were to attack together with several treasures, no matter how capable Tao and Mi Zhenren were, they would not be able to turn the situation around. Without external help, the formation would be broken in no time, but Yuxiao did not do so, instead, he used the strategy of delaying the attack, there must be a reason behind it.
He thought for a while, squinted his eyes and observed for a while, he said coldly, "So that's how it is!"
This time, Yuxiao's attack was not only to stop Li Xiumi from achieving the grotto-heavens, but also to get rid of Tao and Mi Zhenren at the same time.
One must know that both of their cultivation experience was not ordinary, even if the formation was broken this time, they could still escape, it would not be difficult for them to come back in the future.
But using the instruments to attack the formation repeatedly, both of them would be held back here. They could not leave, because there was not much spiritual opportunity on the Fengling Ocean, over time, they would definitely lose their mana.
Looking at Li Xiumi's Qi dynamic, it would take at least a few months for him to achieve it. At most, it would take more than ten years. If they delayed until then, both of their mana would have long been depleted. By then, if Yuxiao's side suddenly attacked, they might not even be able to escape. And if they retreated earlier, then Li Xiumi would definitely not be able to achieve anything, giving up halfway, and the original goal would still be achieved.
He thought for a while, looking at the current situation. Obviously, it was not the time to decide the winner. Moreover, Wei Zihong still had the Mysterious Dragon Sun Embracing Axe, even if it was a critical moment, it could still help. Now, there was no need for him to make a move, it would not be too late to help at the critical moment.
Just as the two families of South Sea were fighting, in the east of Donghua Continent. Above the clear blue sky, there was a young man riding on a sparrowhawk. He flew over the mountains, heading towards the paddy pond.
He was the disciple of Nan Hua Sect's Daoist Grotto-Heaven, Huang Yu, and his name was Fang Shin An. Previously, he had followed his master to Piji Palace.
Huang Yu Gong saw that he was arrogant, so he wanted to use this opportunity to teach him a lesson. But because of this, there was no peer comparison. After Fang Shin An came back. Not only did he not restrain his Prideful Heart, he even felt that his horizons had been broadened. However, his aptitude was indeed outstanding. Not to mention that no one in the same generation could compare to him, even the previous generation elders at his age. None of them had the same cultivation as him.
This time, he heard about the battle between Taihao and Peng Yuan and felt moved. Thus, he took the opportunity while his teacher was cultivating in seclusion to sneak out and watch the show.
As he was flying, he suddenly saw a bird with bright feathers fly across the sky. He glanced at it and revealed a surprised expression, "Six-word Elegant Bird?"
He recognized that this bird was a rare spiritual bird in the Rare Bird Book. The so-called "six" referred to the fact that when its wings were spread out, the left and right wings faced each other, forming a "six" with its tail feathers. Not only could this bird find treasures in the world, but hearing its cry could even prolong a cultivator's life and increase their luck.
However, this bird was extremely rare and only lived deep in the mountains, so it was hard to find normally. He didn't expect to meet one today, and looking at its appearance, it seemed to have cultivated successfully and gained sentience.
In his excitement, he patted the head of the Jade Eagle he was sitting on and pointed, "Quickly chase it."
The Jade Eagle let out a long cry, flapping its wings and flying away.
However, the bird flew very fast. Due to its small body, it was very nimble, and it especially dove into the gaps between the cliffs and the leaves. However, the chasing party was afraid that it was weak, so they didn't dare to use their mana to catch it.
After a few futile attempts, Fang Shin An couldn't help but feel annoyed. He knew that he couldn't catch it, so he rolled his eyes and instructed the Jade Eagle before leaping up from its back. He rode on the light and prepared to outflank it from both sides.
Just like that, the Elegant Bird was chased until it had nowhere to go. It panicked and hid in a col. Below it, many houses could be seen. It was actually a mountain village, and there were more than ten families.
At this moment, the village elder was holding a bowl of water and passed it to a young Daoist in a black robe. The latter thanked him and took the water. He didn't mind that the porcelain bowl had a few cracks and drank it in one gulp. Then, he returned the bowl with both hands and said, "Thank you, sir."
The village elder hurriedly said, "It's alright, it's alright. A bowl of water is nothing. We still have to thank Daoist Priest Yuan for not expelling the poisonous bug for us."
Yuan JIngqing said, "I came to the mountain because I heard that there was a celestial ganoderma here, so I came to look for it. Expelling the poisonous bug was just something I did in passing. There's no need for you to thank me."
When the village elder heard this, he couldn't help but reveal a look of reminiscence. He frowned and said, "The celestial ganoderma that Daoist Priest mentioned, I seem to have heard of it before."
Yuan JIngqing was a little surprised. He cupped his hands and said, "If you know, please don't hesitate to tell me."
The village elder thought hard for a while, then suddenly slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "That's right, my grandpa once said that when he was young, he followed an uncle into the mountains to pick herbs. He once saw the celestial ganoderma, it's right there, right there …"
Before he could say where the ganoderma was, a cry of surprise came from behind him. A bird flew over. A villager couldn't dodge in time and was brushed by it. He screamed and lost half his arm.
Yuan JIngqing's eyes sharpened. "A demonic bird?"
He made a hand sign and the magic sword at his waist suddenly flew out and slashed in the air. A spray of blood spurted out and the bird fell to the ground. Then, he waved his hand and put the sword back.
At this moment, a sudden cry came from the sky. The villagers looked up and saw a young man standing in mid-air on a brilliant light. His face was full of shock and anger. They hurriedly knelt down and called him Celestial Master.
The young man pointed at the corpse of the bird and said angrily, "How could you kill it?"
Yuan JIngqing glanced at him and held the sword horizontally in front of his chest. He put two fingers on the ridge of the sword and slowly wiped away the blood on it. He said coldly, "This kind of demonic bird that can harm people, I killed it. Why can't I?"
