When the powerhouses on the rankings formed a formation, no ordinary Constellation Mansion could withstand it. If the battlefield was in a space that was unfavorable for movement, it might limit their ability to display their might. However, on the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, there were no restrictions on movement at all. Numbers no longer mattered. As long as they moved quickly and frequently enough, it would be very difficult for the three people in the formation to be surrounded.
This was also the biggest reason why the Constellation Mansions of Brocade Island were unable to accomplish anything.
However, what shocked the spectators the most was not the performance of Lu Ye and the others, but the method that Half-ci displayed.
No one knew what it was, nor did they know what was going on inside the black sphere. However, a late-stage Constellation Mansion Master was actually able to restrain Yue Yao. This truly subverted their understanding of the world.
The cultivators from different forces rejoiced as they watched. Fortunately, Brocade Island had made the first move. Otherwise, regardless of which of their forces attacked Peerless Island, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
The number of cultivators on Peerless Island's side might not be many, and their overall strength wasn't high. However, with these few exceptions, unless these forces joined forces, no one would be able to easily take down Peerless Island.
The slaughter continued. Everywhere Lu Ye and the others passed, there would be a rain of blood. The cultivators of Brocade Island continuously fell into the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, disappearing without a trace.
They also tried to join forces to attack, but Lu Ye and the others were too fast. Their movements didn't give them any space to surround them. On the contrary, if any of them were careless, they would definitely be targeted by the three of them.
These people had all participated in the Constellation Hall Contest before. They had never encountered a powerhouse who had left their names on the rankings before, so they naively believed that even if there was a difference in strength, the difference wouldn't be too great. It wasn't until this confrontation that they realized that although they were all Constellation Mansions, there were still great differences between them.
In less than a cup of tea's time, more than thirty of the hundred Constellation Mansions had died. Although the number of Constellation Mansions remaining was not small, they all revealed expressions of fear and their morale plummeted. Not only did they have to guard against Lu Ye and the others' sneak attacks, they also had to guard against the strange attacks coming from inside Peerless Island.
They had to deal with this situation until a stern shout rang out, "Retreat!"
Nan Xingzhen saw that the situation was not good and gave them an order. If they did not leave, more people would die.
It was as if the constellations had been pardoned, and they all used their techniques to escape into the distance. Lu Ye and the other two ignored them, and directly charged towards Nan Xingzhen's location.
When Nan Xingzhen saw this, how could he not know what they were planning? It was obvious that they wanted to join forces with Tang Jun to keep him here. If it were any other Constellation Mansion that dared to do this, Nan Xingzhen would not have cared at all. However, he had also seen the performance of Lu Ye and the others just now, and knew that he could not underestimate them.
If he was alone, he would naturally be able to retreat. However, he still had Yue Yao's companion trapped in the strange black sphere. If he left, his companion would be left behind.
Just as he was feeling conflicted, he heard a cracking sound. Looking in the direction of the sound, he was overjoyed.
He saw that the strange black ball floating outside the Unparalleled Island was now like a broken mirror. Countless cracks appeared on it, and from those cracks, an aura that Nan Xingzhen was familiar with surged.
With a crash, the black ball completely shattered.
A figure appeared and hurriedly retreated. Who else could it be but Ban Ci? However, her current condition was clearly not good. She was bleeding from all seven orifices, and her face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Her aura was as weak as a candle in the wind.
Using the body of a Constellation Mansion to forcibly use that secret technique to trap Yue Yao was indeed a huge price to pay.
In front of her, the woman Yue Yao hovered in the air with a cold expression. Her magic power surged violently, and a spell bombarded Ban Ci. She shouted, "Die!"
To think that she, Yue Yao, had been trapped by a Constellation Mansion's secret technique. Although the Constellation Mansion had paid a huge price, it was still not enough to quell the anger in her heart. Only by killing her could she wash away the shame in her heart.
Ban Ci was like a lamp that had run out of oil. Facing such an attack, she had no strength to fight back.
If nothing unexpected happened, it would be difficult for her to survive this attack.
However, just as the woman Yue Yao was about to use her secret technique, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Ban Ci.
Ban Ci was slightly stunned. She had not expected that someone would come to save her life at this time. She looked up and saw a figure blocking the storm in front of her. The figure held a saber in one hand and slowly rotated it.
In a daze, Ban Ci seemed to hear the sound of a tsunami. Waves rose and fell, suddenly becoming fierce and violent.
The might of the spell arrived. The collision of magic power and spiritual power was like a rock smashing into an egg. The latter could not withstand a single blow.
However, the continuous saber light was like an endless wave, shattering layer after layer, turning into a shield without any protection. The figure did not retreat a single step.
Back in the Merfolk Territory, Lu Ye had used this saber to block a mid-stage Yue Yao's attack. At that time, the other party had only attacked casually and had not used her full strength. However, now that she was in a formation with Pike's Spectre, there was no reason why she could not block a mid-stage Yue Yao's attack.
Amidst the frenzied spell, Lu Ye's figure even advanced forward, although his speed was not fast!
This scene shocked many of the cultivators watching the battle from afar. No matter what, they had never imagined that Xing Su would have the ability to resist Yue Yao. Today's events had truly broadened their horizons. They had no choice but to reevaluate the strength of Peerless Island.
If the woman Yue Yao had used a spell to fight Lu Ye and the others from the beginning, Lu Ye felt that his side would have been able to deal with her. However, the woman had summoned a magic treasure that looked like a seal from the beginning. That was why the three of them were so helpless.
Sensing the strangeness of Lu Ye's saber, the woman Yue Yao was clearly surprised. Just as she was about to test the strength of Lu Ye and the others, she heard Nan Xingzhen call out, "Things are getting out of hand. I'm leaving!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Xingzhen calmly retreated. Tang Jun did not stop him.
Nan Xingzhen had always had the upper hand in the battle between the two. If he wanted to leave, how could Tang Jun stop him? He could only let him go.
As soon as Nan Xingzhen left, the woman Yue Yao followed. However, before she left, she glared fiercely at Lu Ye, as if blaming him for ruining her plans.
In an instant, the soldiers around Peerless Island stopped fighting. The fierce offensive had ended with the attackers paying the price of a few dozen lives.
Lu Ye stared in the direction the woman Yue Yao had left in until she disappeared from his sight. Then, he turned around and saw You Ling standing nearby with the weak Half-word.
Their eyes met, and Half-word nodded slightly at Lu Ye, expressing his thanks.
Lu Ye did not say anything. He returned to Peerless Island and entered his own cave. He could faintly hear the cheers of Chu Shen and the others coming from the island.
Chu Shen was undoubtedly very happy. He had originally thought that Peerless Island would be lost in today's battle. After all, the difference in strength between the two sides was obvious. However, he was not worried about his own life.
If worse came to worst, he could use Jiu Yan's name. He believed that Nan Xingzhen and the others would not dare to kill him. He could also use this to protect his subordinates.
However, if he did that, not only would he lose Peerless Island, but he would also break his promise with Jiu Yan. At that time, he would have to obediently return to Che Ling Domain and work under his mother's protection.
However, he never imagined that Peerless Island would be saved!
Not only did they save it, but they also defeated the invaders until they were forced to flee!
His greatest hope was naturally Pharaoh Da. He had a rough idea of Pharaoh Da's strength, but who would have thought that Half-word's performance would be even more stunning. If Half-word had not acted at the last moment to trap the woman Yue Yao, it would have been impossible for them to win this battle.
It was precisely because the woman Yue Yao was trapped that Pharaoh Da and the others had space to act.
However, Pharaoh Da lived up to his name. Using his Constellation Body to fight against Yue Yao, even though he was in a formation, it was truly amazing.
The number of people on Peerless Island had shrunk by half, but Chu Shen was not sad. This was because those who had stayed behind to fight alongside him at that time were all trustworthy people. They would definitely become his subordinates in the future.
He had originally thought that all of these people who had been recruited would leave without a trace.
After the battle, those who needed to rest and recuperate were recuperating. Chu Shen personally visited Half-word and expressed his gratitude to her as the Island Lord.
In the cave, Tang Jun sat dejectedly on the futon in front of Lu Ye and sighed deeply.
Speaking of which, although he was a Yue Yao, he had not fought many cultivators of the same cultivation level. In the past, he had lived in a place like the Qing Li Dao World and had not encountered any other Yue Yao. After coming to the Wanxiang Sea, he had not had any conflicts with anyone.
It was only today that he realized the gap between him and others. They were both mid-stage Yue Yao, but Nan Xingzhen was undoubtedly much more powerful than him. If not for the time constraints of today's battle, he would have definitely lost if they had continued fighting.
This made him feel a sense of defeat.
"Why did you call me over?" Tang Jun asked. He had been called over by Lu Ye.
Lu Ye glanced at him and roughly guessed his thoughts. He raised his hand and threw a storage ring to him.
Tang Jun caught it doubtfully. After a brief inspection, he was shocked. "So many Spiritual Jades!"
There were almost a million Spiritual Jades in the storage ring!
"Where did you get them?" He hurriedly asked.
As far as he knew, Li Taibai was also a poor man. When he had first inquired about the Jade Snail Galaxy and was preparing to return, he had specially asked him for some travel expenses …
He had not seen him for more than a year. How did he suddenly become so rich?
Moreover, judging from the way he had acted, he obviously had more than this. He definitely had more.
A million Spiritual Jades. This was not just a million Spiritual Stones. Tang Jun had lived for so many years, but he had never seen so many Spiritual Jades.
Lu Ye did not answer. He only said, "Go and buy two decent Dharma treasures."
During today's battle, although he had been in a formation with Pu Ke's spirit to fight the enemy, he had also been paying attention to Tang Jun's situation.
Tang Jun's foundation was still very solid. Among the mid-stage Yue Yao cultivators, he could not be considered the best, but at least he was within the average standard.
The main reason he was not a match for Nan Xingzhen was that his Dharma treasures were not good enough.
