Originally, the Imperial Corpse Sect's Dark Cloud Formation could be said to be the first thing that Heaven's Will City and Blood Fiend Cave had to face in this encirclement operation. Under the cover of the Dark Cloud Formation, the power of the human cultivators' spells was reduced by 30%.
However, just as the group of cultivators was trapped in a bitter battle, the Dark Cloud Formation in the sky automatically reduced its power for no reason, causing the morale of the people of Heaven's Will City to soar. Under the joint attack of the Jin Dan cultivators of the law enforcement team, the number of silver-armored corpses on the opposite side was reduced by a quarter in an instant.
Before everyone could be happy, the Dark Cloud Formation in the sky shook violently but did not collapse. After ten breaths, it slowly stabilized. For a moment, the cultivators of Heaven's Will City revealed grim expressions. Fortunately, they had taken advantage of the gap just now to forcefully kill a portion of the enemy.
Now, even though the Dark Cloud Formation had recovered, the balance of strength had suddenly been broken. The speed of the five warships was also much faster than before.
Yi Tian, who was at the bottom of the sea, had just finished inscribing the inscriptions of the array foundation. Just now, it was really too dangerous. After forcefully breaking through the defensive restrictions of the array foundation, he thought that it would be an easy task. However, he did not expect that these defensive restrictions would suddenly flicker continuously, as if they were about to be broken. This time, Yi Tian had no choice but to speed up the speed of modifying the inscriptions of the array foundation. After spending about five breaths of time to erase the key nodes of the original array pattern, he then copied the inscriptions that he had designed.
After doing this, he hurriedly withdrew his hands. The restriction on the array foundation quickly healed without any external invasion. Finally, a layer of light film formed on the surface of the copper pillar to protect it.
After all this, Yi Tian chose a direction from the bottom of the sea and slowly swam towards the Imperial Corpse Island alone. After less than fifty nautical miles, he discovered that there seemed to be refined corpses lying in ambush in front of him. From the looks of it, there were no less than hundreds of bronze-armored corpses.
These refined corpses were actually emitting layers of black gas. It seemed that they must have used some strange poison during the sacrificial refinement, causing there to be no living creatures in the nearby sea.
However, when he quietly approached within three miles of them, these refined corpses did not react. Yi Tian was suspicious. Logically speaking, the refined corpse couldn't be too far away from its master. Otherwise, the people of the Imperial Corpse Sect wouldn't be able to transmit their spells and commands.
In the water, he used his Clear Spirit Law Vision to look in the direction of the refined corpses. He saw that the hundred or so bronze-armored corpses were standing in a row on a platform at the bottom of the sea. The leading corpse was actually a silver-armored corpse. Its blood-red eyes were open, but unfortunately, its eyes were dull. The hundred or so bronze-armored corpses behind it had their eyes closed.
Cui Zhenzhen was probably using a trick. She knew that the cultivators of the Imperial Corpse Sect were not strong enough, so she used the Silver-Armored Corpse to command hundreds of Bronze-armored Corpses. Although there seemed to be hundreds of refined corpses guarding the perimeter, they were actually controlled by a single Yuanying cultivator. This move was to consume the strength of Heaven's Will City and the Blood Fiend Cave. After attacking the Imperial Corpse Island, there probably wouldn't be so many refined corpses.
After watching for a while, Yi Tian chose to take a detour. Cui Zhenzhen had placed the refined corpses in the path of the fleet. Presumably, after dealing with the refined corpses in front of him, Zi Wushang should still have a few more waves to deal with. On the other hand, he could use this advantage to avoid the ambush.
After leaving this place, Yi Tian took out the sea map and looked at the surrounding terrain. After confirming his position, he turned around and prepared to sneak in from the east of the Imperial Corpse Island.
Although he had taken a long detour, if he didn't encounter any obstacles, he should arrive at about the same time as Zi Wushang's fleet. It was just that the landing location was different.
A person's movements were flexible, and as a Yuanying cultivator, he could also extend his Divine Sense to hundreds of miles in the water. As long as he didn't appear on the surface or clash with the Divine Sense of other Yuanying cultivators underwater, no one should be able to discover his whereabouts.
After Yi Tian's body flashed with light, he used an escape technique at the bottom of the sea and began to take a detour. As expected, when he was fifty miles away from the original direction, he found that there was no ambush at the bottom of the sea. He was shocked. It seemed that the attack of Heaven's Will City this time was discovered by Cui Zhenzhen in advance. Could it be that there was a variable? These ambush troops were completely blocking in front of the five battleships. To say that it was a coincidence would be too degrading of his IQ.
Or it could be said that the flying female corpse Cui Zhenzhen had left behind many hidden hands to detect Zi Wushang's whereabouts. For the time being, he didn't care so much. In any case, he had to be extremely alert. Going deep alone relied on extraordinary courage and extraordinary wisdom.
Two hours later, a green light lit up on the east coast of the Imperial Corpse Island. Then, with a few flashes, it disappeared into the reeds by the sea. When the two patrolling disciples of the Imperial Corpse Sect saw that something strange had happened, they hurriedly took out their jade tokens and prepared to contact him. However, before they could inject their spirit qi, they felt their bodies go soft and their heads become dizzy.
After Yi Tian revealed his figure on the shore, he smiled at the two Foundation Establishment cultivators on the ground. Then, a cool breeze blew past and the three of them disappeared.
An hour later, Yi Tian slowly walked alone on the road to the forbidden area of the Imperial Corpse Sect. Along the way, there were very few cultivators, but most of them were Jin Dan cultivators.
In this hour alone, he had met four or five of them. Looking at the spiritual pressure fluctuations on their bodies, Yi Tian felt extremely strange. He remembered that the two times he had come to the Imperial Corpse Sect was only about twenty to thirty years apart. However, the number of Jin Dan cultivators here had increased so quickly. It seemed that it must be Cui Zhenzhen's doing.
Recalling that in the Heavenly Domain City of the Myriad Islands, Jiang Shuai relied on a drop of Cui Zhenzhen's heart blood to change to a corpse cultivation method.
If it weren't for the fact that kidnapping a Jin Dan cultivator would cause too much of a commotion and alarm Cui Zhenzhen, Yi Tian was really prepared to take action. Now that he had used a spell to conceal his whereabouts on the island, other than a few people with the same cultivation level who could see through it, the others would not be able to discover him even if they were close by.
As he walked, he came to a place not far from the forbidden area. Presumably, Cui Zhenzhen was not far from there. Just as he was thinking about how to break the restriction and sneak in, suddenly, a few strong spiritual pressure fluctuations came from the forbidden area of the Imperial Corpse Sect.
Then, from the main hall of the Imperial Corpse Sect, a spiritual pressure fluctuation of the early Yuanying stage extended. Then, a black light flew out from it and swept toward the forbidden area.
Yi Tian, who was hiding at the side, only slightly glanced at the early Yuanying stage cultivator. After that, his face became extremely solemn. This person was actually the former sect master of the Imperial Corpse Sect, Xie Zongren. Back then, this person's cultivation level was only at the middle or late Jin Dan stage. If it weren't for Cui Zhenzhen's help, he would not have been able to cultivate to the Yuanying stage in this lifetime. However, his early Yuanying stage was very watery. The spiritual energy in his body was scattered and not condensed. Strictly speaking, he was only slightly stronger than the peak of Jin Dan.
Just as he was wondering, suddenly, five strong spiritual pressure fluctuations came from the forbidden area of the Imperial Corpse Sect. The strongest of them was actually at the late Yuanying stage, and the other four were on par with him.
