Chapter 517: Breaking the Formation

Chapter 517 Breaking Formations
“I have my own measure, merit points to be earned, and the sea demon beasts to be expelled, it’s not time for me to leave yet.”

Zhou Xing interrupted Zhou Yu flatly, his face cold.

He expected his aunt and cousin to be unreliable, wanting to earn merit points but also refusing to take risks.

There weren’t too many surprises about their choices.

Seeing that his mind was firm, Zhou Yu stopped persuading him and led Chang Sheng towards the Teleportation Hall.

Originally, Chang Sheng wanted to persuade Xu Chuniang to leave with him.

When his eyes fell on her, he opened his mouth a few times but failed to say anything, and finally left with Zhou Yu in silence.

Looking at the back of the two, a trace of helplessness flashed in Zhou Xing’s eyes, and he smiled apologetically towards Xu Chuniang.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, I’ve made you laugh.”

Xu Chuniang shook her head, “The choices made by the two of them are nothing more than human nature.”

Zhou Xing looked up at the large demon in mid-air, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

“Island Master Mo and several other YuanYing True Lords, have already left for two days and two nights, and I don’t know how the battle is going.

Especially since Island Lord Mo is fighting one against three, I’m afraid that he will be attacked from the back.”

“Such YuanYing level battles are not something we can participate in.”

Xu Chuniang shook her head, “Island Master Mo has a late stage YuanYing cultivation and is a formation master, so by utilizing the power of the formation, he might be able to fight against the three demons.

Just how long they can be held back is unknown.”

Zhou Xing nodded and suppressed his worries.

Let’s hope that the battle between the other three YuanYing True Lords will be won soon.

On the other side, Chang Sheng followed Zhou Yu and arrived at the Teleportation Hall, not being able to leave Red Sand Island immediately as he had hoped.

“What? We need to temporarily leave at our own expense?”

Chang Sheng was very dissatisfied after hearing this.

“Back when we took the quest at Wind Thunder Island, it was said that we would be able to use the teleportation array for free as long as we took the merit quest.”

The bald big man guarding the teleportation array snorted coldly, a look of contempt in his eyes.

“It’s not true that we can use the teleportation array for free, but it also depends on the timing, right? Right now it’s not time to retreat, you and the others are leaving without authorization, so of course you’ll have to pay for your own spirit stones.”

“Mother, how can this be?”

Chang Sheng was in a hurry, if he wanted to leave he would have to pay a large amount of spirit stones, and he might take all the merit points he had earned on this trip.

Zhou Yu looked calm, “Wait a little longer.”

She didn’t believe that there were no other people who had the same idea as her.

Once they had gathered enough people, they would only need to pay a small amount of spirit stones to leave.

Sure enough, after waiting for an hour or two, Zhou Yu and Chang Sheng finally left Red Sand Island as they wished.

Shortly after the two left, a huge blood-stained figure appeared in the distant sky.

Some people recognized that it was the large demon that had fought with the Red Sand Island YuanYing elder.

“This great demon has returned, could it be that …… old senior Zhao has met with misfortune?”

The thought of this possibility colored the crowd’s expressions with panic.

Some Zhao family members rushed back to the clan’s important place to check the soul lamp, however, this look was chilling to the liver and gallbladder.

“It’s not good …… Great Grandpa his soul lamp, it’s gone out!”

The crowd of cultivators clamored, a YuanYing True Lord, fell!
As if they had gotten some signal, the fish shaped demon that was originally perched above the formation opened its eyes.

With a movement of his body, he fiercely slapped towards the formation below.

“Rumble!”

The formation shook and blocked the strike.

This was just the beginning, the fish-shaped demon was so fast that only a residual shadow remained, constantly launching attacks at the formation below.

At the same time, the YuanYing Great Demon in the distance with a blood-stained body and a broken foot launched an instantaneous transfer, instantly disappearing from its original location and appearing above the formation.

The two great demons launched their attacks together, and the formation shook more and more violently, but stubbornly blocked every attack. Seeing that the prolonged attack did not work, the uninjured YuanYing Great Demon was vaguely impatient.

It spat out huge thunderballs from its mouth, hitting the formation one after another.

It then roared angrily and used its huge body to crash straight towards the formation.

“Boom!”

A dull crashing sound was emitted from the formation, followed by several Mo Clan disciples guarding the formation bleeding from their seven orifices and planting themselves from their original positions.

The Mo Family Head’s face changed, not bothering to check on the life and death of those few disciples, he hurriedly arranged for others to continue guarding the formation.

The other Jindan cultivators on the island also took action, forcibly suppressing the fear in their hearts and launching an attack towards the two YuanYing Great Demons.

Only their attacks, falling on top of the two great demons, were like scratching an itch, not even piercing their flesh.

Xu Chuniang took out her Soul Fixing Mirror and inspired a dark light that shone towards the injured YuanYing Great Demon.

The dark light, which was enough to control the late Jindan stage, landed on its massive body and shattered in an instant.

If one wanted to forcefully trap the YuanYing stage sea demon beast, one would only have to pay an extremely staggering price.

She frowned slightly and urged out several Purple Intent Blades, which continued to head towards the YuanYing demon, attacking its eyes and injuries respectively.

The large demon’s body was huge, but it was very flexible, and with a twist of its body, it dodged the four Purple Intent Knives, while at the same time glancing towards where Xu Chuniang was.

When she met the eyes of the YuanYing Great Demon, even though she was separated from the formation, she could feel the terrifying might emanating from her body.

“Roar!”

The injured YuanYing Great Demon roared angrily and withdrew its sight, causing a large swathe of wind blades to blast at the formation as it continued to launch its attack.

“Ka-ching!”

After holding out for several hours, the formation was overwhelmed and finally let out a crunching sound as a crack appeared.

Seeing this, the fish-shaped demon took the opportunity to patch up a piece of thunder, blowing the crack open even more.

Since the crack, there were even several Jindan Stage Sea Demon beasts surging in form, seemingly wanting to enter the island through the gap.

Seeing this scene, many people were terrified.

“It’s not good, the Island Protector Formation won’t last much longer!”

“Without Island Master Mo sitting on the island, how can my Red Sand Island, survive the pincer attack of two YuanYing Great Demons?”

Seeing this scene, the Mo Family Head shouted in a deep voice.

“Don’t panic, all of you, the formation has only been torn at one corner, there is still hope!

Please work together to guard the gap, don’t let the Siren Beasts kill the island!”

Seeing that the Siren Beasts were about to enter the island along the gap, dozens of figures shifted and surrounded towards the gap while at the same time sacrificing magic weapons to kill the Siren Beasts.

The attack of the two YuanYing demons continued, and another “click” sound rang out, and the formation was once again partially torn apart, with more gaps.

More than ten sea demon beasts followed the gap and surged in together.

“There are many low-ranked cultivators and mortals on the island, we must not let these sea demonic beasts enter the island!”

“Kill! Fight them!”

The situation was getting more and more critical, but none of the cultivators on Red Sand Island retreated.

Because they knew that as long as they retreated, the battle would be completely lost.

Once Chisha Island was lost, even though a small number of high-ranking cultivators could escape with their lives, more low-ranking cultivators and mortals on the island would definitely not be spared from death.

The head of the Mo Family poured a handful of pills into his mouth and wasted no time in forcibly enhancing his divine sense and repairing the formation.

The fourth level formation was too large and complex, with his ability, guarding the formation was barely enough, and it would be even harder to repair it.

Utilizing the power of the elixir, at the cost of overdrawing his divine sense, was the only way to do so.

Almost the instant the Mo Family Head began to mend the formation, his head full of dark hair turned gray at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, the gaping hole in the formation began to recover.
