The Battle of Sea and Sky: The Fighting Begins!
In the blink of an eye--
Half a year has passed; time flies, existing only in the blink of an eye...
Within the Sea and Sky Sea Area, the forces of the Seeking Dao Alliance and the Rogue Cultivator Alliance have already gathered here; apart from the two alliances, the entire sea area is now occupied by...
Then there will be no power left!
Warships pierced through the sea fog, and countless whale-like corpses rose and fell on the surface...
They were like schools of fish swimming together, densely covering the sea, while thousands of Qi Condensation cultivators stood in the low sky or flew on their swords!
Above this--
Eighteen Dao Foundation cultivator stood at the extreme point of the sea and sky!
Aside from the nine Dao Foundation Dao Foundation from the Seeking Dao Alliance, the other nine came from the Joyous Union Sect and the Ghost Spirit Immortal Sect, but their cultivation levels were mostly at the second or third level of the Dao Foundation stage...
Only a handful of people managed to reach the Dao Foundation Fourth Layer.
Eighteen Dao Foundation cultivator stood on either side, guarding the center, while Qin Lu stood atop the Qing Centipede's head, his entire body shrouded in a Daoist robe...
The aura of the Qing Centipede had already advanced to the Third-Tier Middle Grade, due to its absorption of the Flood Dragon Soul.
The appearance of the Qing Centipede has undergone many changes; its body has become longer and more slender, its scales more distinct, and it has even grown back hairs...
The insect's limbs became thicker and longer, gradually evolving into dragon claws!
Its head now exuded a Dragon Qi, as if the entire head had been reshaped, devoid of the insect-like mouthparts...
Aside from retaining compound eyes, it already resembles the shape of a dragon, with two small, delicate scales sprouting from its head!
It had already taken on the appearance of being half dragon and half insect.
Including Qing Centipede and Qin Lu, the Seeking Dao Alliance had gathered a total of twenty Dao Foundation cultivator, which is quite a lot on the continent...
As long as the Golden Core is not produced, it is enough to rival a nation!
But it's a hundred miles away.
On the other hand, the Rogue Cultivator Alliance had gathered nearly thirty Dao Foundation cultivator, with fifteen of them being members of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance itself...
The righteous path also sent nine people to support them, plus three temporary helpers.
In addition, there were two Third-Tier Lower Grade great demons, a total of thirty Dao Foundation warriors, far surpassing the Seeking Dao Alliance, but this was only on paper...
But Seeking Dao Alliance has any hidden cards or not, nobody knows.
The more open and honest the other party is...
The more Gu Jinsheng. Even though his side had superior strength and numbers, he always felt a lack of security...
This Old Devil Lu is extremely mysterious.
No one knows where he came from; there is absolutely no information about him in the entire Eight Immortals Sea, not even the Dao Law he uses...
So far, no one has revealed anything!
It was as if the other party was a ghost, appearing suddenly, rising suddenly, sweeping away everything, and suddenly...
It became the highest mountain before him!
So bizarre, yet so coincidental, it's as if this person never existed in the Eight Immortals Sea at all, more like a stranger who appeared out of nowhere...
But since the last time we exchanged ideas with the mainland...
More than three thousand years have passed. Since the rise of the Demon Emperor of the Seven Lights Sea, communication and exchange between the two coastlines have been hindered...
And it's also because of the great war between humans and demons ten thousand years ago.
This resulted in the accidental loss of the Eight Immortals Sea's teleportation array, whose whereabouts remain unknown to this day...
Based on High Antiquity speculation, the inheritance should have been obtained by the Demon Race, but which Demon Race, or even which other force, remains unknown...
Furthermore, the Demon Emperor's obstruction between the two regions began from this point onward...
The Eight Immortals Sea was thus completely cut off from the mainland, a truly tragic and lamentable end for their remaining Human Race...
They were the last of the Eight Immortals Sea Human Race!
How could someone from the outside possibly reach this place? Though I don't want to believe it...
However, the possibility that the Old Devil Lu is an outsider is extremely slim. All the suspicions, in the final analysis, are due to weakness.
"Alliance Leader Gu, let the war begin."
"Our side has a total of 15,000 cultivators and a million Warrior, gathered in the Eight Immortals Sea, with nearly half Rogue Cultivator..."
"With the addition of thirty Dao Foundation, they have an overwhelming advantage over the Seeking Dao Alliance!"
"The Seeking Dao Alliance has gathered only about eight thousand cultivators, over seven hundred thousand Warrior, and a mere twenty Dao Foundation cultivator..."
"In this battle, with a million against seven hundred thousand, the advantage lies with us!"
"From the grassroots battlefield to the Dao Foundation defense, our army has the advantage in every aspect. In my opinion, the outcome of this battle has already been decided..."
Speaking of this--
The elders of the Supreme Mystery Immortal Sect gestured behind them, and immediately the righteous cultivators commanded their army to advance!
Three Third-Tier warships, one hundred Second-Tier ships, and nearly ten thousand First-Tier ships of various sizes...
In a grand and imposing manner, they set off towards the Seeking Dao Alliance!
Seeing that the situation had changed, Gu Jinsheng frowned. Although he was somewhat displeased with the righteous cultivators' overstepping their bounds, he still had to consider this before he advanced to the Core Formation...
But there was nothing they could do about it.
All I could do was silently pray that everything would go smoothly in this war...
It's such a pity--
Reality is often cruel; what you fear most is precisely what will happen, or a crisis may already be brewing...
Even God is trying to persuade you, but He just can't budge this stubborn ox!
As the saying goes, "Kind words and gentle advice can't persuade a damned ghost."
That's about it...
Seeing the Rogue Cultivator Alliance launch a full-scale attack, Qin Lu finally became somewhat interested...
Then, it condensed the Dao Law, transforming them into a wooden sword, which pointed directly at the approaching army of Rogue Cultivator. In an instant, an aura of dominance surged forth...
"Attack with all the water corpses, and slow down the enemy warships as much as possible!"
"According to the original plan, feign weakness, employ flexible tactics, and avoid getting too entangled with the Rogue Cultivator Alliance; fight and retreat as you go..."
Upon hearing this—
The eighteen Dao Foundation cultivator then respectfully bowed to Qin Lu and said:
"I will obey your orders, sir!"
In an instant, the cultivators dispersed, some leading their own battles, others engaging in one-on-one combat with opposing Dao Foundation cultivator, and still others deploying troops...
Everything seemed perfectly organized!
The other party, however, gave Qin Lu considerable face, including six cultivators such as Gu Jinsheng, as well as two Third-Tier Demon Beast...
A total of eight Dao Foundation beings joined forces to surround and attempt to kill Qin Lu!
The plan is clearly to first restrain this killing god, then hunt down his leader, thereby crushing the Seeking Dao Alliance. Without its core figures...
The scales of victory will naturally tip in favor of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance!
It must be said that this rabble wasn't entirely stupid; they did know to decapitate first, which is commendable...
but--
They dared to approach Qin Lu rashly without even knowing what methods he had!
Isn't this a bit too arrogant?
At such close range, it's impossible to believe that Qin Lu's Ninefold Essence Tempering of his essence was all for naught; his physical strength is comparable to that of Law Treasure or Demon Beast...
With just a thought, Qin Lu unleashed a punch!
Its speed was as swift as a startled swan, and its power as overwhelming as Mount Tai...
The barrier formed by the power of the Dao Law collapsed with a roar, and the person was blasted a thousand feet away by this punch!
And the Qing Centipede is even more formidable!
One insect against two beasts, perhaps due to a mutation in their bloodlines...
Its body is also extremely powerful, and the wisp of dragon might it exudes can suppress the lowly bloodline of the Demon Race!
The battle between the sea and the sky has begun!
