The Dragon Tribe Attacks, Abandoning Penglai

After Ao Fang returned to the Dragon Tribe's encampment, he immediately found Ao Xuan, the Eleventh Elder of the Dragon Tribe, and told him about the situation on Penglai Island. Naturally, his evaluation of Li Yi was somewhat exaggerated.

"Are you telling the truth? Can Penglai Island truly be considered a top-tier blessed land?" A hint of greed flickered in Ao Xuan's eyes, the Eleventh Elder of the Dragon Tribe.

He knew that although he was the Eleventh Elder of the Dragon Tribe, holding a high position and great power, his own cave dwelling was only slightly better than ordinary ones. The Dragon Tribe's better, top-tier cave dwellings were already occupied by the Ancestral Dragon and the elders before him.

There were a few elders who had defected from other tribes who had decent cave dwellings, but Ao Xuan couldn't just seize them. Otherwise, it would chill everyone's hearts, and who would dare to defect to the Dragon Tribe in the future?

Blessed lands were not simply places with abundant Spiritual Qi; they also had the effect of gathering great fortune. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't have racked their brains trying to find a better blessed land, even resorting to fighting each other.

Especially for a top-tier blessed land like Penglai Island, favored by heaven and earth, cultivating within it not only led to incredibly fast progress but also brought exceptional luck, with the heavens subtly supporting one.

Therefore, as soon as Ao Fang saw such a good place occupied by Li Yi, jealousy arose in his heart. Furthermore, as both were Golden Immortals, Li Yi's excellence was so overwhelming that it made him unable to breathe. This led him to eventually threaten Li Yi.

"Nephew wouldn't dare joke with the Eleventh Elder. It is indeed a top-tier blessed land!" Ao Fang saw the Eleventh Elder's greed and knew his own hope was gone. Although he felt a bit regretful, he wanted even more to use the Eleventh Elder's hand to kill Li Yi.

"Good, good, good! You've made a great contribution this time. I will issue an order for them to reward you handsomely," Ao Xuan then said with a grim expression, "What right does a mere Golden Immortal have to occupy a blessed land like Penglai Island? Moreover, Penglai Island is located within the Dragon Tribe's sphere of influence; it originally belonged to us, the Dragon Tribe!"

Penglai Island. Li Yi suddenly felt a palpitation.

"Could it be that the Dragon Tribe really intends to seize Penglai Island!" Li Yi's expression was extremely grim, killing intent flashing in his eyes from time to time.

He knew that for someone at his cultivation level, their mind was usually as calm as still water. A palpitation indicated that something was about to happen.

"Green Flood Dragon, come here!" Li Yi prepared to tell the Green Flood Dragon to leave first. He was confident in handling any situation alone; if he couldn't win, he would escape. However, taking the Green Flood Dragon with him was another matter.

Li Yi patted the Green Flood Dragon, "Go wait for me ten million miles to the north. I want to see how the Dragon Tribe intends to seize Penglai Island!"

"Roar!!!" The Green Flood Dragon looked at Li Yi with some reluctance and worry, but it also knew that staying here would be of no help and might even become a burden to Li Yi. The Green Flood Dragon's desire to become stronger was intense at this moment, and for the first time, it harbored resentment towards the Dragon Tribe.

Watching the Green Flood Dragon disappear, killing intent erupted from Li Yi's body, "It's been a long time since I've killed. Dragon Tribe, I'm waiting for you!"

Three days passed in a flash. Li Yi's spiritual sense finally detected a group of figures arrogantly speeding towards Penglai Island. Leading them was Ao Fang, whom Li Yi had driven away.

"Ha, ha, Green Lotus Sword Master, your death day has arrived!" Ao Fang's boisterous laughter reached them before he even arrived.

"Hmph! Ao Fang, I let you go once, and you dare to come back? Do you really think I can't kill you?" Li Yi's cold voice echoed from outside the island.

"Hmph, Green Lotus Sword Master, although you are powerful, you are ultimately not a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. This time, six Grand Unity Golden Immortals from our Dragon Tribe have arrived. Why don't you surrender!" Ao Xuan stepped forward, his voice chilling.

Looking at the boastful old man before him, Li Yi rolled his eyes, "Idiot!"

"You! You've angered me to death," Ao Xuan was clearly enraged, his right hand trembling slightly as he pointed at Li Yi, "I will tear you alive."

"Hmph," Li Yi directly unleashed a burst of Sword Qi, sweeping towards Ao Xuan.

"Good, good, good! Since you're so eager to die, we'll grant your wish!" Ao Xuan's face was so grim it looked like it could drip water.

"Haha, you want to kill me? Break through the island's protective formation first!" Li Yi knew in his heart that he would likely have to give up Penglai Island this time.

However, he couldn't let the Dragon Tribe have it easy. He would first use the formation to deplete some of their magical power. Therefore, Li Yi fully activated the formation, and a bowl-shaped light shield appeared above the entire Penglai Island, inverted.

After fully activating the formation, Li Yi quickly entered the center of the island. With a wave of his right hand, he retracted the palace and placed the lotus root seedling, the ginseng doll, and other spiritual treasures inside. Then, he opened his storage space and collected all the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots, as well as the Three Light Divine Water. After confirming there were no remaining items, Li Yi held the Green Lotus Ancient Sword, ready for battle.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The protective shield was subjected to intense attacks, and bursts of colorful light flashed to strengthen its defenses, nullifying the attacks. This greatly frustrated Ao Xuan and the others, but they had no choice but to continue.

"Boom!"

After Ao Xuan and the others attacked the protective shield for a day and a night, it finally collapsed, and Ao Xuan and the others had consumed 1/4 of their magical power.

"Ah!" A Dragon Tribe elder suddenly let out a piercing scream. Half of his body was severed by a sudden gray light that streaked across the sky, leaving him in a tragic state. It looked like his combat power was almost depleted, and it would take at least tens of thousands of years to recover.

It turned out that Li Yi had seized the moment when the formation had just broken and Ao Xuan and the others were lax, launching a surprise attack. He hadn't expected it to be so effective, causing the Dragon Tribe to lose a combatant.

"Despicable!" Ao Xuan stared coldly at Li Yi. Losing a combatant before the battle even began filled him with rage.

"Hmph, is it noble for you to come and seize my cave dwelling?" Li Yi pouted, his face full of disdain.

"Die!" Ao Xuan stopped arguing and directly waved his hand, sending a massive wave towards Li Yi.

"Kill!!!" Li Yi directly split the wave in two with the Green Lotus Ancient Sword, then unleashed a crescent-shaped gray light, slashing horizontally at Ao Xuan.

"Bang!"

A trace of blood appeared at the corner of Ao Xuan's mouth. He looked at Li Yi with disbelief, "How can there be such powerful Sword Qi!"

"Hmph, there's much you don't know. Today, I'll let you experience the power of the Nirvana Sword Dao." With that, Li Yi flicked the Green Lotus Ancient Sword, unleashing another massive crescent-shaped gray light.

Ao Xuan no longer dared to block him at close range. The previous blow had left his entire body numb. "Crush him!" Nearly a hundred giant frost dragons formed in the sea, churning and charging towards Li Yi.

"Rumble rumble..."

The battle between Ao Xuan and Li Yi caused colossal waves to churn the entire sea surface. Crescent-shaped gray lights and giant frost dragons continuously collided and annihilated each other.

"Damn it, how can he be so strong when he's still a Golden Immortal?" Ao Fang watched Li Yi fight Ao Xuan to a standstill. Amidst his shock, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes. "Since I've offended him, I absolutely cannot let him live. Otherwise, he will surely become a great threat in the future."

"Elders, this brat has immense potential. Let's attack together. We absolutely cannot let him live!" Ao Fang said to the elders beside him.

"That's right, let's take him down together."

Several Dragon Tribe elders agreed with the proposal and, without a word, unleashed their ultimate moves, attacking Li Yi.

"Damn it, these old guys have teamed up. I can't deal with them right now. I need to escape quickly." Thinking this, Li Yi hardened his heart, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Old ghost Ao Xuan, take this!" Li Yi instantly unleashed dozens of Nirvana Sword Qi towards Ao Xuan's direction. Then, enduring two attacks from the ice dragons, he revealed two pairs of wings on his back and flapped them, rapidly approaching one of the relatively weaker elders.

Ao Xuan, seeing Li Yi suddenly unleash dozens of Sword Qi, didn't dare to delay. He pressed his hands on the sea, and dozens of ten-thousand-foot-tall ice walls appeared. However, when he saw Li Yi speeding towards that elder, his heart skipped a beat, and he cursed inwardly.

"A moment of life and death, eternal Nirvana!"

A gray Taiji Diagram instantly swallowed that elder.

"Ah!!!!"

A chilling scream echoed from within the Taiji Diagram. When the Taiji Diagram dissipated, Ao Xuan and the others turned pale. The elder was left with only half a head, and even most of his soul had been annihilated.

"Hahaha!!! Old ghost Ao Xuan, you'd better protect Penglai Island for me. I will definitely be back." The voice, drifting from afar, made Ao Xuan incredibly furious. "Roar!" Ao Xuan roared, tearing open the clouds above.

After venting his anger, Ao Xuan glared hatefully in the direction Li Yi had left, a flicker of worry flashing deep within his eyes.
