Chapter 516 – The Seventh Great Demon
Chapter 516 – The Seventh Great Demon
The human cultivators could retreat to the island, but these sea demon beasts, as invaders, never retreated.
After two days and two nights of killing, the casualties of the sea demon beasts continue to accumulate, and gradually fell down, the trend of defeat.
A Jindan Perfection realm Sea Demon Beast scanned the surroundings, revealing a strong color of unwillingness in its eyes.
The human cultivator was treacherous and lured the six great demons away one after another.
Otherwise, with their strength, how would they have ended up here?
If they continued to attack, they would only be wiped out.
After making the decision to withdraw, it was about to lead the remaining sea demonic beasts away when its expression moved and it looked towards the distance.
Many Jindan cultivators also, if they were aware of it, looked towards the distance in unison, with horrified expressions on their faces.
In the distant waters, a huge figure came swiftly towards the direction of Red Sand Island.
It was extremely fast, bringing out a long line of water, its might far exceeding that of a Jindan stage sea demon beast.
“This …… is another YuanYing stage great demon! In order to capture my Red Sand Island, it actually deployed seven Great Demons!”
“The great demon will arrive! All cultivators, quickly retreat to the island!”
Along with a stern shout, countless figures moved, rushing towards the formation below.
The Siren Beasts, which had already shown defeat and were about to retreat, were greatly energized and re-launched their fierce attack, taking the opportunity to kill quite a few human cultivators.
As the crowd retreated, the great demon had already approached Chisha Island, and with a swing of its huge fish tail, it stirred up hundreds of feet of water waves, slapping towards the countless cultivators in mid-air.
“Ah!”
Many of the cultivators who hadn’t had time to return to the formation were hit by the water waves.
Letting out a miserable scream, they directly lost their breath.
In front of the YuanYing Great Demon, not to mention the small cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Refining Stage, even the Jindan Stage cultivators did not have much power to fight back.
Seeing this scene, the island cultivators were both shocked and angry.
If it wasn’t for their quick escape, they would have been buried in the water waves right now.
A single blow from a YuanYing Great Demon could rewrite the course of the battle!
Looking at the huge fish-shaped demon, a layer of gloom colored the hearts of the crowd.
Originally, the human race’s YuanYing level battle force was two people short.
Now that the opposite side had added another great demon, the gap between the two sides had widened even more.
The Mo Clan Head’s expression sank in and he issued several commands in a rapid voice, ordering the Mo Clan disciples to guard the eight sides of the formation.
With the Island Protection Formation in place, they could barely resist the attack of a YuanYing demon and would be safe for the time being.
What he was more worried about was the old ancestor’s safety.
The old ancestor was one against three, if he lost, the consequences would be unimaginable ……
Thinking of this, the Mo Family Head had more worries in his complexion and frequently looked behind him in the direction of the Teleportation Hall.
Teleportation hall side, from time to time there is a white light lit up, however from the formation stepped out, are not the two people he wanted to wait for.
The new YuanYing demon didn’t attack the formation, only coldly perched in mid-air, bringing a full sense of oppression.
It looked like he wanted to wait for the other great demons to return before attacking together.
This silent oppression caused everyone’s hearts to become heavy and uneasy.
There were even some people that began to advocate abandoning Red Sand Island and retreating.
“I only have four YuanYing True Lords on Red Sand Island, but there are seven YuanYing Great Demons on the opposite side, this battle is dangerous for Red Sand Island, it’s better to make another plan earlier.”
“Why don’t we retreat to Wind Thunder Island through the teleportation array, Wind Thunder Island is one of the three large islands in the Yan Continent, and there are many YuanYing cultivators on it, so it won’t be easily lost.”
More people were in favor of holding out to the end, with the protective formations in place, it wasn’t time to retreat. “No, this battle cannot be retreated! Our human cultivators must hold on to the territory.
Otherwise, one step back, one step back, and in the end, more than one Red Sand Island will be lost.”
“I was born on Chisha Island, I will live and die with Chisha Island, I would rather die in battle than retreat half a step! If the Sea Demon Beasts want to occupy this island, they can step over my corpse!”
Fearing that saying any more would cause public anger, some of the people who advocated retreating were suddenly silent.
It was just that, consciously or unconsciously, they would try to choose a location as close to the teleportation array as possible.
Once the formation broke, they would be the first to activate the teleportation array and leave Red Sand Island.
Chang Sheng looked in the direction of the Teleportation Hall and secretly transmitted his voice with Zhou Yu.
“Mother, looking at this situation right now, I’m afraid that Red Sand Island is only bad. Wanting to earn some merits peacefully and steadily, but then this kind of trouble came up, I’m afraid that I have to be ready to run away at any time.”
Zhou Yu nodded imperceptibly, similarly sprouting a desire to retreat, and transmitted her voice towards Zhou Xing and Xu Chuniang.
“Red Sand Island had a sudden change of heart, and although Island Master Mo has a late stage YuanYing cultivation, fighting one against three is ultimately a vicious situation.
We are not the people of Red Sand Island, and we have more or less earned some merit on this trip, so how about leaving here?
Otherwise, when the other YuanYing Great Demons come back, we won’t be able to leave even if we want to.”
Zhou Xing frowned slightly, even though this trip was for earning merits.
But right now, Red Sand Island was in danger, and leaving there would inevitably add to Red Sand Island’s already difficult situation.
Even if he wanted to leave, it was not now.
“Auntie, Red Sand Island is in danger, even if you want to leave, it’s not urgent, right?”
Xu Chuniang did not utter a word, and in her heart, she agreed with Zhou Xing’s words.
If most of the cultivators, like Zhou Yu and Chang Sheng, fled without a fight, where would the human race have a foothold in this huge sea?
Zhou Yu frowned slightly, ”If we don’t leave now, do we have to wait until the teleportation formation is broken? We are here to earn merit, not to sell our lives.”
Chang Sheng nodded along.
“Anyway, Red Sand Island is in danger, it’s not like Wind Thunder Island is in danger. There are dozens of medium-sized islands under Wind Thunder Island, so it doesn’t matter much if there are a few less.”
Dissatisfaction showed in Zhou Xing’s eyes, but thinking of the identity of the two people in front of him, he tried his best to endure it.
“Aunt and cousin are wrong, if Chisha Island is in danger, we will stand by and watch. Then once Wind Thunder Island encounters distress in the future, who will be able to come to the rescue?”
Chang Sheng bristled in disbelief.
“Can this be the same? Red Sand Island is only a medium-sized island, and there are only a mere three or four YuanYing cultivators on the island.
There are many YuanYing cultivators on Wind Thunder Island, so how could they be reduced to such a state?”
Hearing his cousin’s words, Zhou Xing did not say any more, he had long known what kind of virtue his cousin had.
He looked towards his aunt Zhou Yu and asked with a calm expression.
“Auntie, do you feel the same way?”
A trace of unnaturalness flashed across Zhou Yu’s expression, and then she quickly returned to her normal self.
“I have the intention to help Red Sand Island get through this critical situation, but looking at the situation right now, I am powerless to do anything about it on my own.
It would be better to save myself and save my useful body so that I can continue to go to the frontline against the enemy in the future.”
Zhou Xing laughed coldly, obviously his aunt was not such a person before, but since she married into the Chang family and gave birth to Chang Sheng, she was like a different person.
“Alright, Auntie, since you have an idea, there is no need to say more, you guys can leave if you want to.”
“Before leaving, your father had explained to me that I must watch over you ……”
