Li Weiyi and Liu Fengshu Make Their Move

On the sixth deck of the ship, Tang Wanzhou's eyes were sharp and cold. "This is a rare opportunity for training. We must let the enemy know in advance that we are not to be trifled with and that we have the strength to seize this opportunity. Otherwise, on the day the Ancient Immortal Dragon Skeleton are excavated, we will really only be standing at the very back."

Each excavation of the remains of Ancient Immortal Giant Beast disrupts the balance of power in the surrounding region.

If you fall behind, you will be attacked.

Therefore, Lingxiao Shengjing absolutely must get a share of the pie, whether it's snatching food from a tiger's mouth or overestimating its own abilities. It was the power that Mist Son of Heaven displayed in Cloud Heaven Immortal Plain that gave Lingxiao Shengjing the opportunity to participate, and the younger generation must live up to expectations and step up.

"Liang Zheng volunteered for the mission."

Liangzhou's chief bowed deeply to the sixth-level ship.

"Wanyan Cangliang requests to join the battle."

An Old Man from the Wanyan Clan of Yingzhou drew his Unsharpened Heavy Sword.

Tang Wanzhou nodded. "Go! Verify whether the methods we discussed earlier are effective. Identify the flaws and make improvements."

"If you wish to protect the Lingxiao Shengjing, you must possess the necessary strength. Liang Zheng of Liangzhou, along with nine of Liangzhou's greatest experts, requests guidance from the Dao Palace Huo Xin."

"No matter how strong the Dao Palace is, it's still far beyond our reach. My Lingxiao Shengjing has ten times more martial artists than yours. It's hard to say who is stronger."

The ten top masters of Liangzhou formed a battle formation, stood within the formation diagram, and unleashed nine magical artifacts to shatter the Dao Heart Manifestation supported by the Huo Xin, forcing it to retreat and fall to the sea below.

Among the top ten experts, there was a formation master at the Nine-Star Mind Master level. He supported the formation diagram and assisted the other nine people in unleashing a combined attack.

On the other side, five top experts, including Wanyan Cangliang and Taishi Yu, joined forces to activate a Sixth-grade Thousand Character Artifact Ancient Cauldron, sending Zhen Xin flying out of the ship.

Among these five people, there was Nine-Star Mind Master, a peak Ninth Heaven Dao Seed Realm, some wielding shields, and others taking the lead in attack.

In short, we must do everything we can to utilize our numerical advantage to fight against the opponent's top experts.

A choice made out of necessity.

It's also the only option.

The two groups clashed fiercely on the sea, instantly filling the air with magical energy and causing the waves to surge.

On the sixth deck of the ship, all the Longevity Realm Giants Lingxiao Shengjing tensed up. If they couldn't even overcome the hurdles of Huo Xin and Zhen Xin, how could they possibly contend against the true disciples of the Dao Palace and the three Young Son of Heaven of the Demon Race?

Is compromise the only option? To submit to humiliation and appeasement?

The Mist Son of Heaven had finally managed to get Lingxiao Shengjing back on its feet; it simply couldn't bring itself to kneel down again.

Li Weiyi said, "I have a feeling that Tang Wanzhou had already made all the arrangements. He deliberately set up this Commander's Feast to lure the enemy to his doorstep. He wanted to use this battle to demonstrate the strength of the Lingxiao Shengjing and avoid being hunted by a pack of wolves."

Zuoqiu Hongting also noticed this; the ability to instantly form a battle formation clearly indicated that they had been prepared in advance.

She said, "Whoever provokes us, we'll take them down to establish our authority. At the same time, we can use this opportunity to test the power of our combined attack."

"Lingxiao Shengjing lacks top-tier experts, but it has an absolute advantage in the number of martial artists, so it can completely defeat the few with the many," Li Weiyi said.

Zuoqiu Hongting said, "This move might be useful against the Dao Palace. But in terms of numbers, who can compare with the East Sea Demon Race? Moreover... you see, the Combined Attack Formation's weakness in speed has already been exposed. It's good enough for self-defense, but not enough for offense, and it's difficult to threaten experts of Huo Xin and Zhen Xin's level."

On the sea.

The ten-man battle formation led by Liang Zheng moved slowly, and the Dao Heart Manifestation they released could not restrain the Huo Xin at all.

Instead of confronting them directly, the Huo Xin immediately fled after striking them once.

A ten-man battle formation can only passively take hits.

On the other side, the five masters, led by Wanyan Cangliang and Taishi Yu, were even faster and more agile, wielding sixth-grade Thousand Character Artifact to launch long-range attacks. However, despite their powerful weapons, they could not lock down the Zhen Xin.

Each attack was incredibly powerful, and we Zhen Xin not take it head-on. However, the five of them were expending a great deal of their magical energy and could not continue for long.

Zuoqiu Hongting sighed, "It's too passive! We need a sufficiently powerful individual to operate around the battle formation to restrain figures like Huo Xin and Zhen Xin, thus allowing the battle formation to play its maximum role."

Li Weiyi asked, "What exactly is Zuoqiu Courtyard thinking?"

Zuoqiu Hongting understood his meaning perfectly. "The Zuoqiu Courtyard will never separate from the Lingxiao Shengjing! In fact, the stronger the Lingxiao Shengjing displays at the Commander's Feast, the louder the Zuoqiu Courtyard's voice will be at the Du'e Temple. We share both glory and loss."

"The true Huo Xin and Zhen Xin are about to be revealed. I wonder if Taishi Yu and the others can withstand them?" Li Weiyi stared at the sea, secretly summoning the Staff Spear of All Things and handing it to Zuoqiu Hongting, the fake Li Weiyi.

On the sea, Huo Xin and Zhen Xin converged.

The Huo Xin, with his wild and unrestrained nature, let out a long laugh, "Is this the confidence that allows you, Lingxiao Shengjing, to defy the will of the Dao Palace? If your skills stop here, you will likely not escape the fate of becoming food for demonic beasts."

The Huo Xin unleashed a Blazing Divine Flame, while the Zhen Xin released Blue Sea Bone Frost.

The red and blue lights began to rotate, transforming into a raging, swirling cloud over the sea.

The clouds reached the sky, flames and frost danced, crashing into the two battle formations formed by the martial artists of the Lingxiao Shengjing, and the Horizon Ship further away.

"Splash."

The seawater was swirled up by the rotating clouds, and the waves rose several meters high.

With a loud "boom," the magical artifacts unleashed by Liang Zheng, Taishi Yu, and the others entered the swirling cloud and were instantly swept away. The ancient cauldron, a sixth-grade artifact with a Thousand Character Artifact, crashed into it, but was blocked by two gourds, one blue and one red.

Two gourds flew above the heads of Huo Xin and Zhen Xin. The palace was so huge, its surface covered with scriptures, all of them extraordinary.

The two battle formations were successively shattered by the spinning gourd and the cloud of magical energy, and the fifteen masters were all swept into the storm.

With Huo Xin and Zhen Xin joining forces, their combat power increased dramatically.

"Please look after those two for me."

Li Weiyi knew all too well that once the battle formation collapsed, the fifteen top experts would no longer be able to contend with powerhouses of the level of Huo Xin and Zhen Xin. If they did not intervene, the consequences would be severe.

Therefore, after transmitting his voice to Tang Wanzhou, he and Zuoqiu Hongting immediately rushed out, flying over the heads of the group of martial artists and heading straight for the swirling cloud on the sea.

Chang Yujian stared at Li Weiyi's retreating figure, a look of surprise on her face. She muttered to herself, "Indeed, he's no ordinary person. Interesting!"

Chang Yuqing's gaze fell on the fake Li Weiyi: "He's only at the Seventh Heaven, yet he dares to mess with Huo Zhen and the other two?"

On the sea, Tang Zhan appeared before Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting.

Warhorses neighed, their iron hooves pounding the waves.

Tang Zhan, carrying two swords on his back and wielding a ten-foot-long spear, Departed Spirit Soul Beast and, along with fifteen other riders, burst forth from the seabed, shrouded in thick black clouds.

The Sixteen Divine Snow Riders were prepared by Tang Wanzhou for Young Son of Heaven- level powerhouses, and were also the strongest trump card below the Longevity Realm.

Seeing that Li Weiyi and his companion had launched their attacks, Tang Zhan immediately held his position.

The Sixteen Divine Snow Riders stood in a line in front of the Horizon Ship, like a towering city wall.

Zuoqiu Hongting shouted, "You two Huo Xin and Zhen Xin! In the Old Yuzhou, you tried to kill me. It's time to settle this score!"

After she uttered that cry, even if she were to kill Huo Xin today, it would still be a personal vendetta.

Huo Xin and Zhen Xin looked surprised. They hadn't expected the Jiu Li Hidden Person to be so foolish. It was too good. They knew that this man carried a great treasure and had wanted to capture him back in the Old Yuzhou.

A golden-red flame of spiritual power surged from Zuoqiu Hongting's brows, infusing it into the Staff Spear of All Things, which she then used as a brush to draw a picture of the swirling clouds flying towards her from afar.

"It's so similar! Her psychic powers are exactly the same as the Golden Crow Flame's psychic powers."

Li Weiyi guessed that it must have been that Broken Ancient Lamp that helped her change her psychic attributes.

Since she was now in Li Weiyi's form, Zuoqiu Hongting had no scruples and unleashed a mental power intensity comparable to Nine-Star Mind Master. With a single stroke, she tore a hundred-meter-long gash in the cloud of magical energy of both the Huo Xin and the Zhen Xin.

Li Weiyi summoned his Peach Wood Staff and rushed into the crack in the cloud first.

From the Peach Wood Staff, three-colored branches grew, covering the sky and pressing down on the two gourds, one blue and one red, below.

"Liu Fengshu, you still dare to come looking for death?" Huo Xin looked up and roared.

Li Weiyi said, "That's right, it's me, the Sword Gentleman Liu Fengshu."

"You've been added to my palace's kill list. Now that you've shown yourself, offer up your head."

The Huo Xin and the Zhen Xin drew upon the power of the two gourds, shattering the three-colored spiritual peach branches that were entangling them into wisps of light and mist.

"Swish! Swish!"

The two unleashed incredible speed, their figures blurring as they soared through the air, attacking Li Weiyi from two different directions.

Zuoqiu Hongting appeared in a flash and joined Li Weiyi.

With a staff and a spear, he met the two charging figures head-on.

"Boom!"

On the sea, a huge, swirling cloud burst open from within, creating towering waves tens of meters high, as if to knock the sky down.

The fifteen experts who had been trapped in the cloud broke free and were thrown away, quickly moving away from the battlefield.

They were utterly bewildered. "How did Liu Fengshu get involved with Li Weiyi?"

Previously, Liu Fengshu had clearly been at odds with the Jiu Li Tribe.

Li Weiyi used Peach Wood Staff to enhance his mental power, and his spiritual light condensed into peach trees, peach branches, and peach blossoms, just like the Immortal Realm Pan Peach trees growing on the sea, to fight a head-on with the Huo Xin.

"Bang!"

The magical energy and spiritual light collided like two walls.

The peach blossom petals and the scriptures released by the Huo Xin exploded across the entire sea surface, crimson as blood, dazzling and magnificent.

The two of them were forced back simultaneously, leaving two long trails of white water in their wake.

His Huo Xin eyes were filled with astonishment. "How could your strength have increased so much?"

He could clearly sense that Liu Fengshu's mental power had reached a new level, entering the ranks of top experts. Each wisp of tri-colored mental power flame was as powerful as a fully mastered third-level Major Technique.

More importantly, his opponent withstood his attack head-on without even breaking a sweat.

How strong must the physical body be?

"Having broken through to the Nine-Star Mind Master, I have come to assess the inheritors of the Ninth Heaven."

After saying this, Li Weiyi transmitted her voice to Tang Zhan: "Help me resist his Zhen Xin for a moment."

Standing in the camp of the Sixteen Divine Snow Riders, Tang Zhan looked at "Liu Fengshu" and "Li Weiyi" at different times, feeling confused and secretly wondering if the two Li Weiyi were the abandoned rice man brothers.
