The defensive arrangements of a spiritual island were generally divided into two types. The first type was the island's protective formation. This was the most reliable defense of every spiritual island.
However, if an enemy attacked, it was impossible to just take a beating without retaliating. In this world, no matter how strong the protective formation was, it would not be able to withstand endless attacks.
Therefore, other than the island's protective formation, every spiritual island had a counterattack arrangement.
The island's protective formation was based on the various formation bases, while the counterattack arrangement was based on different formations. Regardless of the type, they were all arranged near the periphery of the spiritual island.
Because it was near the periphery, the spectators were able to see the fight clearly.
Lu Ye charged out from the main hall of the formation bases. His figure was like lightning as he swept past one formation after another. Wherever his blade went, nothing could stand in his way.
The formations were destroyed and the cultivators of Baiyue were either injured or killed. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they were torn to pieces by Ma Shangsi and the cultivators of the Three Realms.
In a short span of ten breaths, Lu Ye's figure traversed fifty miles and tore a huge hole in the outer defensive line of Baiyue Island!
Just as he had expected, these cultivators were controlling the formations within the defensive line. Therefore, they were very scattered. Taking them by surprise was indeed a huge gain.
However, after fifty miles, Lu Ye had no choice but to stop.
With Yue Yao's body, it was indeed easy for her to kill the constellations. However, if she killed too many, it would still consume a lot of energy.
No matter how strong he was, it was impossible for him to completely penetrate the defensive line of Baiyue Island by himself. The reason why he was able to penetrate fifty miles was because the cultivators here were not prepared at all and were caught off guard by him.
Now that the cultivators of Baiyue Island were prepared, it would not be easy to achieve the same results as before. At the very least, they could form a formation.
Moreover, Yue Yao was overseeing this side. She was Junior Sister Meng, who had been called out by Yu Huan at the beginning of the battle. Since she was overseeing the defensive line, how could she watch as Lu Ye massacred her own constellations? Therefore, when she sensed that something was wrong, she immediately led a group of people to meet Lu Ye and stop him.
After a short confrontation, Ma Shangsi led the cultivators of the Three Realms and rushed over. When Junior Sister Meng saw this, although she was unwilling, she could only withdraw and reorganize her forces.
Lu Ye, Ma Shangsi, and the others met up again. Without stopping for a moment, they continued to push forward and destroy the enemy's defensive line.
A moment later, Junior Sister Meng, who had reorganized her forces, returned to confront Lu Ye and the others.
Baiyue Island had a total of 2000 cultivators. In this battle, the total number of cultivators besieging the three formation foundation halls was around 1000. The remaining 1000 cultivators were arranged to guard the four formation foundation halls and the external defense line.
There were about 100 people in each of the four array foundation halls, so there were about 400 people in total. Therefore, Junior Sister Meng could mobilize about 600 people.
However, these six hundred people were very scattered. Due to the long defensive line and the fact that Lu Ye had killed some of them, Junior Apprentice-Sister Meng could only mobilize about three hundred people in a hurry. The other three hundred were temporarily unable to move. After all, the island's guardian array was still intact, and they still had to defend it.
On the surface, Junior Apprentice-Sister Meng's side had more people, but Lu Ye had two Yue Yaos. Neither side was inferior to her. Therefore, after the two sides clashed, they were evenly matched for a short time.
When the battle between Lu Ye, Ma Shangsi, and Junior Apprentice-Sister Meng broke out, He Baichuan had already led his 500 subordinates to the gap in the defensive line.
With a command, attacks that blotted out the sky and covered the earth bombarded the island's guardian array from the direction of the gap.
The array was on the verge of collapse!
Before this, they had already put a considerable burden on the island's guardian array. However, because of the enemy's counterattack, they could not unleash their full strength. Now, there was no need to worry.
There was no need to deal with the enemy's counterattack. They only needed to attack the array fiercely, and the 500 cultivators fought with their lives on the line.
Violent sounds rang out continuously, and the entire spiritual island was shaking.
If not for the spiritual island on the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea being special, such a violent battle would have long been smashed to pieces.
When the spectating cultivators saw this scene, they immediately understood that Baiyue's island's guardian array … could not hold on!
It was not that Baiyue was not strong enough, nor was it that the island's guardian array, which had been accumulating for 800 years, was weak. Instead, it was because the Three World Island's attack rhythm was too perfect. The people of Baiyue Island were now being led by the nose.
In this kind of battle, this was the most taboo. Yu Huan's ability to command a battle of this scale was too incompetent, but this was not his problem. After the conflict broke out, Lu Ye's arrangements were linked one after another, and he was forced to deal with them as they came.
In just half a cup of tea's time, after another round of fierce attacks by He Baichuan's troops, the island's guardian array, which had protected Baiyue Island for 800 years, suddenly shattered!
The moment the array shattered, all the cultivators of Baiyue felt their hearts skip a beat. A few Yue Yaos even paled.
Behind He Baichuan, the battle cries of the 500 Lunar Mansions pierced the clouds. Their killing intent was almost tangible. Under his command, they charged into the island.
The path ahead was clear, and there were no more obstructions!
On the battlefield where Lu Ye and the others were, Junior Martial Sister Meng gritted her teeth and did her best to contend against Ma Shangsi.
Lu Ye completely ignored her. It was not that he did not want to, but that he could not. After all, the number of Lunar Mansions on his side was much lower. Without him in the middle, many of his Lunar Mansions were bound to die. Thus, he could only think of a way to kill the enemy's Lunar Mansions and close the gap in their numbers.
Moreover, to him, killing Lunar Mansions was undoubtedly much easier than killing Yue Yaos.
In this half a cup of tea's time, dozens of Lunar Mansions had died at his hands.
When he had auctioned off the Twin Qi Linked Branches formation disk in the Lunar Mansions Hall, Lu Ye knew that this thing would definitely change the situation in the Myriad Phenomenon Sea. This was because the formation disk could allow certain Lunar Mansions with powerful foundations to contend with Yue Yaos to a certain extent.
However, he never expected that he would be restricted in this aspect one day.
Under the formation of Baiyue Island's Lunar Mansions, it was not that easy for him to kill them. Killing more than ten Lunar Mansions in half a cup of tea's time was already an extremely good result. At every moment, he had to face the siege of at least seven or eight formations.
Faced with Lu Ye's threat, the Baiyue Lunar Mansions were clearly somewhat restrained in battle. This was because no one knew when he would suddenly attack. On the other hand, the cultivators of the Three Realms were full of vigor. As a result, although the Baiyue Lunar Mansions had the advantage in numbers, they were clearly at a disadvantage.
When He Baichuan's troops broke through the island's protective formation, the Baiyue Lunar Mansions' fighting spirit was clearly greatly reduced, and the situation became even worse.
Almost at the same time that the island's protective formation was broken, a powerful Divine Sense suddenly spread out from the direction of one of the Formation Foundation Halls and spread throughout the entire Spiritual Island.
Lu Ye sensed for a moment and immediately sensed that the source of this Divine Sense was Yu Huan!
This fellow was clearly using Divine Sense to send a voice transmission and deploy something.
As expected, following the fluctuation of the Divine Sense, many scattered cultivators on Baiyue Island immediately abandoned their original battlefield and rushed in one direction.
Junior Martial Sister Yu, who was entangled with Ma Shangsi, also activated the power of a Dharma treasure. It released a bright light that disturbed Ma Shangsi's senses. She quickly retreated, and an abnormal red light appeared on her body. Without a doubt, she had activated some kind of escape technique and wanted to quickly leave the battlefield.
Her actions were undoubtedly very wise, because Ma Shangsi's cultivation was actually higher than hers. Under normal circumstances, it would not be so easy for her to escape after being entangled by Ma Shangsi. She only had a chance to escape with the help of the Dharma treasure's interference for a moment.
From this, it could be seen that Junior Martial Sister Meng was also someone who had a lot of battle experience.
While fleeing, she had also deliberately tried to sense Lu Ye's location. In this battlefield, only Lu Ye and Ma Shangsi could pose a threat to her. After escaping from Ma Shangsi, she naturally had to be on guard against Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was dozens of miles away from her, fighting with a few Lunar Mansions who had formed a formation.
Junior Martial Sister Meng's heart relaxed …
However, in the next moment, she felt a great sense of danger!
Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a flash of light not far away from her. Immediately after, she felt a chill run down her spine as the sound of a sword rang out. An unparalleled attack had already enveloped her body and mind.
"A Sword Cultivator!" Junior Martial Sister Meng's beautiful face turned pale. She could never have imagined that such a powerful Sword Cultivator was hidden in this battlefield.
She was only focused on guarding against Lu Ye and Ma Shangsi, so she did not notice the existence of this Sword Cultivator. At this moment, the other party took advantage of the moment her mind relaxed to launch a sudden attack. It could be said that the timing was extremely clever.
Moreover, Sword Cultivators had always been unparalleled in killing. Being ambushed by a Sword Cultivator at this time, how could she have a good ending?
The sword light rushed over, and in a hurry, Junior Martial Sister Meng activated the power of her Dharma treasure and finally blocked the attack.
However, in the next moment, she despaired because the other party's attacks were endless. There was more than one fierce and unparalleled sword light!
There were several of them!
The hastily activated Dharma treasure was broken, and the sword light swept past her body, rolling up a smear of blood.
Junior Martial Sister Meng's figure flew into the distance like a kite with a broken string. As she tumbled, she finally caught sight of the Sword Cultivator who had ambushed her.
The figure that appeared in front of her eyes left her incomparably stunned.
That was because that person looked exactly like Lu Ye.
Junior Martial Sister Meng was somewhat confused. She had clearly been on guard against Lu Ye, so how could another Lu Ye appear here?
However, she quickly understood that this Sword Cultivator was not Lu Ye. It was just that he looked exactly like Lu Ye.
So this Yue Yao of the Three World Island … was a twin?
Lu Ye was naturally not a twin. The Sword Cultivator was just his Talent Tree Clone. Earlier in the battle in front of the Array Foundation Hall, Lu Ye had borrowed the cover of Ma Shangsi's sea of blood to condense his Sword Cultivator Clone.
The Talent Tree Clone was different from the Precious Blood Clone. The Talent Tree Clone could activate the power of the Talent Tree, so it could naturally restrain its aura and conceal its body.
If it had been any other situation, Junior Martial Sister Meng might have been able to detect it. She was also very strong. However, in such a chaotic battle, it was too easy for the Talent Tree Clone to hide.
The clone had not made a move all this time because he wanted to catch Junior Martial Sister Meng off guard. He had been lying in wait for this opportunity, and sure enough, he had caught Junior Martial Sister Meng off guard.
