On the tenth day after entering the Chess Sea, more than a hundred cultivators gathered on the Chess Island, and the end of the island could not be seen.
On the fifteenth day, the number of cultivators increased to two hundred.
The reason for such an explosive growth was that the number of cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance who were still alive in each batch was not small, ranging from a dozen to thirty to forty cultivators.
As the number of cultivators increased, the strength of the Grand Heaven Alliance also increased.
Correspondingly, the battle became more intense. The cultivators of the Grand Heaven Alliance were gathering, and so were the cultivators of the Myriad Devil Ridge. The small-scale battles between a few cultivators were no longer visible, but now, when the great battle broke out, the sky was filled with the light of spells and Imperial Artifacts.
According to the information that Lu Ye currently had, the merger of the Chess Islands would generally last about eighteen to twenty days. During this period, the Chess Islands scattered across the Chess Sea would slowly converge into a huge continent.
When this continent was formed, some rare treasures would appear, and they might come from the Chess Islands that no one had set foot on.
After the formation of the continent, it would last for about 10 days before collapsing again, transforming into countless chess islands. When that time came, the Battle of Spirit Creek would come to an end, and all of the cultivators who were still alive would be sent back to their respective sects.
Fifteen days had passed, and in a few days, the merger of the Chess Islands would come to an end. Once the continent was formed, the confrontation between the cultivators of the two camps would become more intense. Now, everyone could only wait passively, but after the merger of the Chess Islands, they could take the initiative to attack.
The preparations made by the Myriad Devil Ridge would truly come into play at that moment.
These days, news from all sides had been spreading and exchanging. From time to time, there would be bad news. Some of the Chess Islands occupied by the Grand Heaven Alliance cultivators were attacked and annihilated.
If too many cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance were killed or injured in the periphery, the Myriad Devil Ridge would be able to eliminate the Grand Heaven Alliance with their advantage in numbers after the continent was formed. If they had enough time to search, they could even kill everyone from the Grand Heaven Alliance.
The situation in the periphery was not optimistic, and the situation in the inner circle was even worse.
At least, the two cultivators from the Jade Blood Sect were the core of the periphery, but the cultivators in the inner circle were not so lucky. When they fought, no one helped them to weaken the enemy's strength. When they were injured, no one helped them heal. They could only rely on taking pills or meditating to adjust their breathing when they consumed too much energy.
After a series of fierce battles, even the Eighth or Ninth Order cultivators who cultivated Heaven Grade Secret Arts suffered many casualties.
Two days later, the number of cultivators on the island increased again. There were now more than 300 cultivators. There were 70 cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance on the small island that was merged with the Grand Heaven Alliance.
After learning that this was the Chess Island where the cultivators of the Jade Blood Sect resided, the seventy or so people were overjoyed. It was as if they had found their mother's home. They even deliberately came over to get acquainted with Lu Ye and Hua Ci.
With a lineup of more than three hundred people, their side was unprecedentedly powerful. Everyone was impatiently waiting for the final merger of the Chess Island. It was because only in this way could the other cultivators of the Haotian Alliance who had not gathered here take the initiative to approach them. Only then would they have a chance to survive.
The day he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
When the Chess Island suddenly shook and sped up in a certain direction, the expressions of all the cultivators on the Chess Island turned solemn. Everyone realized that the final merger had arrived.
At this moment, the Chess Islands on the entire Chess Sea, which were originally difficult to calculate, had merged into one huge island after another. These islands were being pulled by some kind of force and were drifting in the same direction. Halfway through, some of the islands began to merge and attach to each other, becoming bigger islands.
Some of the islands were inhabited, while others were uninhabited. The uninhabited islands were very small, as if they had never been merged before. However, without exception, those uninhabited islands contained some precious natural treasures. Some of them were even unique to the Chess Sea.
There was another island somewhere on the Chess Island. The island was not small, and there was a fruit tree growing at the highest point of the island. Nine palm-sized blue flowers grew on the fruit tree. Even from ten miles away, the fragrance of the flowers could be smelled in the air.
The World Energy visible to the naked eye turned into a vortex and gathered in the nine blue flowers. The blue flowers were also changing rapidly. Under the stem of the flowers, fruits were beginning to grow.
It was foreseeable that such a fruit tree would definitely attract strong cultivators from both camps to fight for it. A great battle was destined to break out here.
Before the Chess Islands were completely merged, Lu Ye's side had already started fighting. This was because the nearby Chess Islands had attached themselves to them on the way to the merger. There were two Chess Islands at the same time, one on the left and one on the right, sandwiching Lu Ye's Chess Island in the middle.
There were about a hundred people gathered on each of the two Chess Islands. Before Lu Ye and the others could figure out which camp the two Chess Islands belonged to, the cultivators on the left and right had already charged toward them.
Both sides were from the Myriad Devil Ridge. After contacting each other and communicating with each other, they concluded that the one sandwiched in the middle was from the Haotian Alliance. There was no need for them to be polite.
When the cultivators on their side saw that there was such a good thing, they immediately became spirited.
Ever since the number of cultivators on their side exceeded a hundred, they had been the ones to initiate the attack in every great battle.
There was no other way. With so many cultivators, the enemy could no longer attack rashly. No matter how good they were at acting, they could not lure the enemy in. The enemy only needed to send a few people to investigate and they would know that the situation was not right.
When they took the initiative to attack, even with Hua Ci's support, some casualties were inevitable. The cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge were not pushovers. Just like the people from the Haotian Alliance, they had experienced hundreds of battles and were never afraid of death.
It had been many days, but no one dared to take the initiative to attack. As a result, the many tricks that Hua Ci had set up previously were useless.
Therefore, even though they were being attacked from both sides, they did not panic at all. Instead, they were even a little expectant. Everyone looked eager to try and secretly urged their spiritual power.
There were too many wolves and too little meat. This was the time to compete with their eyesight and hand speed. Killing the enemy's guardian would not only give them meritorious service, but they could also take away the blessing of the enemy's Tianji Pillar. However, if they killed the deputy guardian, they would only get meritorious service. The difference was huge.
The cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge on both sides cooperated well and were full of vigor. On the other hand, they stood in groups of two or three. There was no special formation and they looked like a motley crew.
As usual, spells and flying lights began to collide. After this fight, the cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge on both sides realized that something was wrong.
There were too many people from the Haotian Alliance on this side!
Both sides added together did not have as many people as the enemy. However, the battle had already begun and they could not retreat now. They could only grit their teeth and persevere.
Fortunately, they soon realized that the Haotian Alliance did not have a unified command. Therefore, even though they had more people, they did not have the upper hand.
This made the cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge calm down and they attacked more vigorously.
However, they did not know that most of the 300 cultivators from the Haotian Alliance were focused on a gentle woman. Therefore, they did not seem to have much combat power.
This woman was called Hua Ci!
The number of people who were responsible for protecting Hua Ci increased to five. One was a body cultivator, one was a weapon cultivator, one was a spell cultivator, one was a ghost cultivator, and one was Yanshi. She was Lu Yushan's junior sister.
As Hua Ci raised her jade-like hand, she changed her hand sign and a green halo swept out.
The 300 cultivators from the Haotian Alliance seemed to have received some instructions and their attacks intensified instantly!
Along with the exclamations from both sides, a large area of flying lights in the sky was destroyed! The flying lights from the Haotian Alliance's imperial weapons blasted into the enemy's camp. The body cultivators and weapon cultivators in the front were bleeding and more than 10 of them died on the spot.
"Thunder Dragon Roar!" The thin and small Lu Yushan shouted with great vigor. The spiritual weapon in his hand emitted a strong beam of light and blasted into the enemy's group. No one knew how many people he killed, but his expression suddenly became very happy.
"Kill!" Gao Tai roared angrily and was the first to attack again. The big shield spiritual weapon in his hand propped up a barrier and withstood the attacks of the cultivators from the other side.
Behind him, the weapon cultivators advanced by leaps and bounds like jackals and wolves. Their vigor was so terrifying that two red lights almost floated out of their eyes.
Lu Ye also followed behind him and did not leave him by an inch.
After a while, Gao Tai collided with the body cultivator from the other side. It was like two huge rocks colliding. The shield spiritual weapon made a loud explosion and dense spiritual light.
Both of them took a few steps back. This time, they were evenly matched.
However, Gao Tai was laughing because while he was retreating, the weapon cultivators behind him had already flashed left and right.
The burly body cultivator from the other side became frightened. Although he crazily urged his spiritual power and the power of his spiritual weapon, when the weapon cultivators passed by him, blood still spurted out of his body and he knelt on the ground.
On the side of the Myriad Demons Ridge, the body cultivators standing in the front row had the same experience.
The defense system of the body cultivators in the front row had been broken through. What was left was a feast of killing.
Lu Ye had just rushed to the front of a panicked spell cultivator when a flying light of a flying weapon attacked from the side and pierced a big hole in the spell cultivator's head!
Lu Ye immediately withdrew the long saber that he had swung.
This was a common thing. After these few battles, although they were lively, they did not really gain much. Now that they had more people on their side, there were people who did not gain anything in every battle.
He immediately fixed his eyes on the next target, which was a weapon cultivator who was fleeing to the back. He raised his hand and shot out a Fire Phoenix Technique, hitting that person until he staggered and his back was charred. Then, he pounced on him and slashed down with his saber.
Seeing two spots of red light fall on the back of his hand, Lu Ye heaved a long sigh of relief. In the current situation, it was really not easy to snatch a kill.
The army was defeated like a landslide. As the Myriad Demons Ridge fled, there were countless corpses along the way. The remaining dozen people were chased to the seaside. Seeing that they had nowhere to go, they all jumped into the sea.
A large number of inexplicable shadows surged up from the sea and drowned these people.
"No!" A Grand Sky Alliance cultivator reached out his hand and knelt on the ground with a plop. His eyes were red and his face was full of sorrow.
If an uninformed person saw this, they would probably think that these people who jumped into the sea were his relatives.
"Why … Why would you rather commit suicide than let me kill you?"
Damn it, another battle where they did not gain anything!
