Take Care of Yourself
The Tianshu Envoy oversee this journey.
And now there are four more skilled fighters.
The Five Pulse Lords, including the Immortal Palace Wood, naturally felt much more confident.
They immediately began planning their route, with Su Bai not participating in the arrangements at all, leaving them to devise their own plans.
He himself reinforced the Defense Formation at the Crimson Flame Island Immortal Palace Outpost.
Su Bai only glanced at these Defense Formation briefly before recognizing them as the same Defense Formation that the Xuanzhe had previously taken from him.
These Defense Formation Array were personally crafted by Su Bai. Although they were merely practice pieces in his pursuit of Top-tier Formation crafting, they were supported by his exceptional Magic Array Talent and Artifact Forging Talent. Therefore, even with some minor flaws, they could still be considered among the top formations in the current Major Cultivation Worlds.
If this Defense Formation Array is presided over by Golden Core Cultivator, with the assistance of some Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it can barely withstand a fierce attack from Nascent Soul Cultivator for a period of time.
However, the situation of the Immortal Palace in the South Sea is extremely serious. It is not just a matter of having only one Nascent Soul Cultivator here; it is very likely that it will be bombarded by multiple Nascent Soul Cultivator at the same time.
Faced with the current situation, Su Bai made a decisive move and took out several sets of even better Defense Formation that he had later refined from his own pocket.
These Magic Array, in conjunction with the previous ones, form a Mother-Child Linked Defense Formation.
As a result, the defensive power of the entire Defense Formation at the Immortal Palace Outpost on Crimson Flame Island was increased several times over.
The enhanced Defense Formation, even when facing an attack from multiple Nascent Soul Cultivator, can not only successfully withstand the enemy's attacks as long as a few Golden Core Cultivator are in charge, but can even launch an effective counterattack.
However, such a powerful Magic Array naturally comes at a price: the consumption of Spirit Stone is terrifying.
Since the supplies from Crimson Flame Island were in Su Bai's possession, it would be best to keep them for the guardian of the Magic Array.
While setting up the Magic Array, Su Bai also extended his Divine Sense over three thousand miles to monitor the actions of the Immortal Palace Cultivator.
According to my Divine Sense sense, the actions of the Nine Immortal Palace Golden Cores have already begun.
At this moment, following the orders of Zhong Ming, the Sect Master of the Grand Barren Rock Sect, a large number of Rock Island Cultivators were deployed to patrol the area around Rock Island. Even near Crimson Flame Island, there were Rock Island Cultivators skilled in concealment watching the movements of Rock Island.
Unfortunately, the Immortal Palace used the Immortal Palace Eagle's Eagle Eye to clear the way, and these Cultivator were detected from thousands of miles away.
With advance warning from the Immortal Palace Eagle, the Immortal Palace forces quietly bypassed the Rock Island's Deployed Sentries Rock Island headed towards them under the cover of night.
Occasionally, one or two individuals with truly extraordinary Divine Ability abilities were detected by Su Bai's Divine Sense, and he notified several Immortal Palace Pulse Lord to eliminate the targets.
Thus, two days later, the main force of the Immortal Palace army had arrived in the Sea Area Near Rock Island.
The Immortal Palace Member activated Shadow Dust and hid nearby, waiting for nightfall to launch their attack and storm the Rock Island!
South Sea, Thunder Island, Thunder Cloud Palace Mountain Gate.
Zhong Ming sat upright in a Small Reception Room in the Thunder Cloud Palace, taking a sip of the Spirit Tea in front of him with a somewhat uneasy feeling.
He hurried as fast as he could and finally arrived at the Thunder Cloud Palace.
"Sect Master Zhong, please wait here for a moment. I have already informed him of your request to see the Grand Elder."
"Actually, I only returned to the Thunder Cloud Palace half a day earlier than you. I've already reported the matter of Crimson Flame Island to the Grand Elder." The one who spoke was Genius Chen Shuo Thunder Cloud Palace.
Chen Shuo and Zhong Ming were acquaintances, and Chen was waiting with Zhong Ming in the reception room.
Previously, he had gone to Rock Island on behalf of the Thunder Cloud Palace to provide assistance. After witnessing the Immortal Palace Nascent Soul kill the Rock Island Old Ancestor, he rushed back without stopping.
There are many geniuses these days, but even more geniuses die young.
With Nascent Soul Cultivator already fallen, Chen Shuo knew that there was no point in him staying on the Rock Island any longer.
We might not be able to protect ourselves, so it's safer to return to the sect where our Old Ancestor is protecting us.
Zhong Ming sighed deeply, a look of gratitude on his face. He slowly raised his hand, cupped it to Chen Shuo, and said, "I am truly grateful to Fellow Daoist Chen! If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Chen timely help on Crimson Flame Island a few days ago, I would probably be Yellow Springs already."
Recalling the harrowing moment that night, Zhong Ming still felt lingering fear.
At that time, the Immortal Palace Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Immortal Palace appeared, and several Pulse Lord of the Immortal Palace Wood took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
As the Sect Master of Barren Rock Sect, Zhong Ming naturally became their primary target.
Despite Zhong Ming's considerable strength, he was facing an attack from Golden Core Cultivator of the Immortal Palace Golden Core. Almost immediately, he found himself in grave danger, on the verge of defeat or even death.
At this critical moment, Chen Shuo led several Elite Golden Core Cultivator had already retreated back like divine soldiers descending from the sky.
Without hesitation, they charged into the Battle Group and engaged the Immortal Palace Cultivator in direct combat.
After a fierce battle, Chen Shuo and his men gradually gained the upper hand due to their numerical advantage and successfully rescued Zhong Ming from the predicament.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, the Immortal Palace Golden Core Cultivators Consciousness continuing the entanglement would be futile, so they decisively changed their strategy, thinking that they could kill as many as possible, and instead launched an attack on the Foundation Establishment Cultivator on the Rock Island.
This is the entire process of the battle between the two sides of Cultivator after Yellow Springs appeared that day.
"Sect Master Zhong, there's no need for such formalities."
"However, the Immortal Palace has come with great force this time. I asked around and found out that Immortal Palace have recently added several new Immortal Envoy, greatly increasing their strength."
"If you really want to deal with the Immortal Palace, relying solely on my Old Ancestor might not be enough," Chen Shuo said.
Zhong Ming nodded in deep agreement and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen is quite right, and I am well aware of this as well. However, now that my sect's Old Ancestor has unfortunately passed away, there are no more Nascent Soul Cultivator in the sect. How easy is it to pay respects to the other Nascent Soul Old Ancestor in the South Sea? I'm afraid we can only visit them one by one."
He paused briefly, then continued, "Moreover, after suffering heavy losses in the Qianyuan Cultivation World, the Immortal Palace's unusual behavior makes its ambition to establish itself in the South Sea common knowledge. I'm sure none of you Old Ancestor wish to see the Immortal Palace grow stronger in the South Sea!"
"To completely eradicate the Immortal Palace, we must seize this excellent opportunity and deliver a crushing blow while Immortal Palace have just established themselves in the South Sea!"
"If you venerable Old Ancestor continue to disregard this and delay, once the Immortal Palace's foundation in the South Sea is solidified, it may truly become the end of the South Sea!"
Chen Shuo nodded in agreement, but unfortunately, his word didn't count; the Nascent Soul Old Ancestor certainly had their own plans.
"Hey, Sect Master Zhong, just you wait."
Zhong Ming waited from daytime until afternoon, and then from afternoon until nightfall.
Instead of waiting for Elder Yun Fusheng of Old Ancestor Yun, Transmit Message from the Sect Golden Core Elder came through the one-time-use long-distance communication device on their person: The Immortal Palace has launched a sneak attack on Rock Island, Rock Island is about to fall. Sect Master, please take care of yourself!
