The fifteenth day of the eleventh month, Si.
The Dragonfang Flying Ship flew to the exit of the Devil Nose, its thirty-meter-long hull suspended in the air as it looked down with a murderous aura. The dragon head at the bow of the ship looked more ferocious than usual.
"They're here?"
Li Weimin, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly stood up. He looked around and steadied his mind.
He was surrounded by clumps of thick grey smoke, and on each clump of smoke, there was a tall flag, with a total of 36 numbers.
This was not a formation, but a magic treasure that the elders of the sect had refined for him, the "Corpse Smoke Qi Banner". The banner had a main and secondary banner. He held the main banner, and the other thirty-six were the secondary banners.
In truth, this magic treasure was only half-refined, and could not be used to attack enemies. However, it was more than enough to defend.
Li Weimin believed that today was not the day to decide victory or defeat with the cultivators of Qincang School. There was no need to fight to the death, and it was enough to buy time. As long as his eldest brother Li Weide returned, wouldn't it be easy to take care of these people?
"However, there's no harm in taking a look at the achievements of these Qincang School cultivators."
Li Weimin looked up and felt that his side's momentum was somewhat weak. He waved his hand and signaled for the two cultivators beside him to go up and test the waters.
The two Bloodsoul Sect cultivators immediately formed a seal, and a faint shadow appeared above each of their heads. Their facial features were like real people, but their lower bodies were ethereal like mist, and vaguely seemed to be supported by a thick bloody aura.
This was a Bloodsoul that they had refined using their own spirit to capture devils. Normally, they could not only release it to attack enemies, but they could also feed on the vitality and blood essence of enemies to nourish themselves.
The two of them moved forward, and the two Bloodsouls turned into two bloody shadows that pounced towards the Dragonfang Flying Ship.
Zhang Yan was standing on the third floor of the flying ship. The view here was wide, and he could see the entire scene at the entrance of the Devil Nose.
At this moment, turbid air filled the air, and was blocked by grey clouds of smoke, completely obscuring the scene in front of him.
It was obvious that this was the doing of Bloodsoul Sect's disciple Yu.
At this moment, he glanced to the side and saw two Bloodsoul Beasts rushing over. However, the direction they were heading towards was coincidentally where Fang Zhen was.
Looking at the direction the blood soul had come from, Zhang Yan sneered. He pointed forward and a ray of blue light flew in that direction.
Fang Zhen also noticed the abnormality. He snorted coldly and didn't look at it any longer. He just raised the Five Fire Divine Weapon Circle in his hand and casually waved it in front of him. Two fireballs flew toward the two Blood Spirits. "Chi Chi", the two Blood Spirits turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.
When Li Weimin saw this scene, he was secretly praising the power of the Five Fires Divine Weapon Circle, but he suddenly saw a blue light darting into the smoke formation. His vision blurred, and the head of a disciple beside him was chopped off. The sword pill floated in the air and swayed before flying back.
"Impressive, impressive.
Li Weimin couldn't help but sweat. No wonder Big Brother told him to be careful. He had lost a disciple because he had been careless. If they were fighting head-on, without Big Brother here, he really wouldn't have been able to stop them.
Zhang Yan put away the sword pill and looked at the thick layer of smoke and the flags in the surroundings. He pondered for a while before walking next to Xie Zongyuan and saying, "Senior Brother Xie, that Mystic Light Realm cultivator doesn't seem to be here! We can go all out and attack. "
Xie Zongyuan's mind shook and he said, "Oh? Why do you say so? "
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "If that Mystic Light Realm cultivator was here, there would be no need to put up such a defensive appearance."
This was a battle between cultivators, not two armies. If they wanted to defeat them, a cultivator with a high cultivation would be enough. There was no need to put up such a formation.
"That's reasonable!" Xie Zongyuan turned around and cupped his hands at Fang Zhen. He said, "There's something strange about this smoke. Senior Brother Fang, we'll have to rely on your Five Fire Divine Weapon Ring to open a path."
Fang Zhen snorted and walked to the front of the boat. He waved his sleeves and said, "Protect me!"
Without waiting for anyone to respond, he took out the Five Fire Divine Weapon Ring and chanted a spell. The ring began to spin in the air, and purple flames appeared on the edge of the golden ring. More and more flames appeared. At this moment, Fang Zhen revealed a tired expression. When he almost couldn't hold on anymore, he shouted, "Go!"
In an instant, balls of flames rained down on the smoke and clouds below like a torrential rain.
The long banners on the ground made strange buzzing sounds. They moved without any wind and leaped up to block the front. As soon as they came into contact with the flames, there was a crackling sound. In an instant, seven or eight banners were destroyed, turning into wisps of green smoke that drifted into the air. Every time a banner was destroyed, there would be a cloud of smoke on the ground that dissipated.
Seeing this scene, Li Weimin, who was hiding in the formation, chuckled. He picked up the main banner in his hand and waved it. The dispersed smoke gathered again, forming a banner once more, and stayed there.
He had buried the Essence Gathering Jade Plate under the sand. It could continuously absorb the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings and supply it to this treasure.
As long as the main banner wasn't destroyed and there was someone to use it, he could condense another one at any time even if the secondary banners were destroyed.
Everyone on the Dragon Tooth Flying Ship was overjoyed when they saw the banners being broken. However, they did not expect the banners to return to normal in just a moment. Moreover, the smoke that seemed to be dispersing was suppressed once again, no longer moving.
Everyone frowned. Without dispersing the thick smoke, no one dared to recklessly charge in. After all, who knew what killing moves were hidden inside?
Seeing that the opening of the Eye of the Sea was getting closer and closer, everyone couldn't help but feel anxious.
Zhang Yan was still very calm. He watched for a while, a thoughtful look in his eyes. After a while, he turned to Fang Zhen and asked, "Senior Brother Fang, according to what you saw just now, how many banners can you destroy in one go?"
Fang Zhen was startled. He calculated and said, "There are a total of 36 banners. If I attack with all my strength, it should be no less than 18."
"Then you can destroy half?" Zhang Yan nodded and smiled, "That's enough."
Xie Zongyuan heard the hidden meaning in his words and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother, do you have an idea?"
Zhang Yan pointed down and said, "Senior Brother Xie, look, just now when Senior Brother Fang made a small crack in the mist, I vaguely saw a person standing on the stone platform with a banner in his hand. He seemed to be in charge of it. Only after he waved the banner did the mist gather. He must be the key person in this formation. We need to find a way to kill him."
Fang Zhen's face revealed a trace of ridicule, "Senior Brother Zhang, this person is in the depths of the thick clouds. If we want to go in and kill him, we must break the thick clouds. If we can break it, why are we still standing here?"
Liu Tao knew that Zhang Yan wouldn't speak without thinking, so he said, "Senior Brother Zhang, do you have an idea?"
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I do. I see that there is an opportunity in this cloud. If Senior Brother Fang's Divine Weapon Circle can be broken one more time, I can take advantage of the gap before it closes and borrow Jian Xiao to go in and kill this person! "
Fang Zhen paused and then said with a frown, "Junior Brother Zhang, you have to think it through. If you go in and fail, we won't be able to save you."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Of course I have. Right now, that Mystic Light Realm cultivator isn't here. If I don't try it, I won't even have a chance like this when he comes back."
Fang Zhen laughed and said, "Good! Since Junior Brother Zhang is so bold, then I, Fang Zhen, won't hide anything. Today, I will show you the true power of my Five Fire Divine Weapon Ring! "
At this moment, muffled rumbling sounds came from all directions. It was as if there was an army of ten thousand horses galloping above their heads, and the ground below was also rumbling like thunder. It was as if the entire demonic cave was shaking.
Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a surging river below suddenly coming to life. Raising its head, it was like an enraged dragon soaring towards the sky, gushing towards the entrance of the Devil's Cave. Even the thick clouds couldn't conceal this astonishing scene.
Xie Zongyuan took a few steps forward and shouted, "The Sea Eye's gate is open!"
Everyone on the Dragon Tooth Flying Boat was stirred. Liu Tao suddenly said to Xie Zongyuan, "Senior Brother Xie, why don't you get on the Agarwood Boat first? Senior Brother Zhang must have confidence in what he did. Once the formation is broken, don't hesitate and rush into the water column with all your strength!"
Xie Zongyuan hesitated for a moment before nodding his head heavily, "Okay!" He handed the Sea Tablet to Liu Tao and said, "Senior Brother Liu, I'll give this treasure to you."
Liu Tao didn't stand on ceremony and took it, "Senior Brother, remember, the opportunity is fleeting. Don't hesitate!"
Xie Zongyuan solemnly cupped his hands at everyone, then took out a talisman and released the Agarwood Ship. He called Feng Ming to enter with him, and under the complicated gazes of everyone else, they closed the ship's door. Once the clouds broke, they would rush out of the demonic cave along the water.
Zhang Yan looked at Fang Zhen and said, "Senior Brother Fang, get ready to move."
Fang Zhen snorted lightly and took a step forward. He held the Five Fire Divine Weapon Ring in his hand and chanted a spell. In a flash, he threw the ring into the sky again. The ring grew larger and larger, until it was ten feet wide. The purple flames that originally encircled the ring gradually turned golden-red. Even the ring was filled with swaying flames.
The ring bloomed in the sky like the sun, emitting a low muffled sound. It seemed to be brewing something, and its momentum was terrifying.
This power made Li Weimin, who was watching from below, nervous. He simply sat on the stone platform and activated the banners with all his strength, preparing to deal with this attack.
Fang Zhen's head was already dripping with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered. In the end, he roared, "Open!"
"Boom!"
The surging flames formed a sea of fire that gushed out from the Divine Weapon Ring.
Li Weimin also shouted, waving the main banner with all his strength. The thirty-six banners shook in unison and leaped up to meet the attack.
However, like moths flying into a flame, the banners turned into smoke the moment they came into contact with the flames. The cloud of smoke that had gathered in one place also became thinner, showing signs of dissipating.
Li Weimin waved the banners with all his might. Every time the flames broke a banner, he would condense it again. For a time, he was able to resist the attack. The originally unstable cloud of smoke also gradually closed up.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yan still didn't move. After the cloud of smoke thinned a little, he stared at Li Weimin's figure. The sword pill floating next to him buzzed, as if it could fly out of his hand at any moment.
Almost at the instant the cloud of smoke closed up, his eyes flashed, and his body and sword merged into one as he shot out like a rainbow!
The instant he moved, a blood-colored light also flashed across the sky and quickly flew over.
Liu Tao looked over and exclaimed, "Not good, that Xuan Light Realm cultivator is back!"
Li Weimin was waving the banners, and just as the smoke formation was about to close up, he heard someone say, "Senior Brother Li is back."
He turned around and saw that it was indeed the case. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Big Brother is back."
At this moment, no one was paying attention to a long rainbow that seemed to have descended from the heavens. In an instant, it tore through the void and pierced through the gaps in the clouds, heading straight for them.
Li Weimin suddenly sensed something, but the instant he turned his head, a bright light flashed in front of him!
