“Don't panic, all of you stay on the island for me.”
With a cold snort, the six Nascent Soul cultivators of the alien demon race appeared in the sky to the west of the island and began to cast spells simultaneously.
The one who spoke was the red-haired man in the mid-Nascent Soul stage. This man lifted one hand upwards, and a hexagonal copper plate flew out.
A beam of blood light struck it, and the copper plate instantly enlarged. It was covered with dense runes, and circles of golden halos emerged, instantly covering an area of more than twenty zhang.
The remaining five Nascent Soul cultivators cooperated in casting spells, each unleashing their spiritual light, which fell onto the copper plate.
The Nascent Soul old monsters of the alien demon race naturally cultivated demonic arts, but their respective spiritual power attributes were naturally different. However, their respective spiritual powers struck the copper plate and quickly merged together, without any sense of rejection.
The copper plate was like a formation disk, spinning rapidly, and the spiritual light on it became extremely dazzling. The color also changed, becoming multicolored.
Finally, it turned into a cloud of rosy light that directly enveloped the stone island below.
Lightning, powerful wind pressure, and rising sea waves beat against the island, creating a crackling sound. However, the rosy light on the island remained motionless, easily resisting this scene.
Those cultivators who had wanted to escape earlier immediately returned to the island, and their expressions became much calmer. Compared to the wind and waves outside, the island was now more stable.
After the six Nascent Soul old monsters finished casting their spells, they also returned to the island, leaving only the blood-haired man floating in mid-air, controlling the copper plate.
At this moment, the storm intensified, and the surrounding hundreds of miles became dark and lightless, as if it were the end of the world.
If a cultivator could circle the storm, they would discover that the storm's intensification was not just in this one direction, but that the entire storm layer had inexplicably intensified a lot.
The overall area had even expanded outward by a hundred miles.
This scene lasted for three hours before the storm layer began to weaken, and the speed of weakening was even faster than before.
Half an hour later, the entire storm layer had shrunk by more than half, the sky became clear, and the sea surface was calm. A scene of ten thousand miles without a cloud was reflected in the eyes. A rising sun hung in the sky, scattering ten thousand rays of golden light.
“The time is almost up, it's time to let these juniors enter.” The blood-haired man put away the copper plate, breathed a long sigh of relief, and called out to the bottom.
“Thank you for your hard work, Fellow Daoist Xue.”
The fat old man laughed and transformed into a ray of light, floating in the air again. He also called out to the bottom. “Little ones, it's time for you to perform. The moment to enter Demon Wind Island to search for treasure has arrived.”
The other Nascent Soul old monsters also directed the crowd to re-board the three large ships and head towards the storm area.
Breaking through the waves, the three large ships were not ordinary ships. They were large spiritual tools refined by cultivators, and their speed was extremely fast. Before long, they passed through hundreds of miles and entered the storm layer.
The original area covered by the storm was extremely large, but after weakening by more than half, it was not difficult to pass through.
Under the protection of the six Nascent Soul cultivators, the three ships sailed for more than an hour and passed through the weakened storm layer, arriving at the sea area where Zhang Ling was, where demonic energy emerged.
However, compared to before, this sea area had changed greatly. A layer of faint black mist rose from the sea surface, which was the demonic energy emitted from the sea eye. In one day, the demonic energy had covered thousands of miles of sea area.
And this was not the most peculiar thing. Compared to before, the sea level in this area seemed to have dropped a lot, and many dark reefs were exposed.
The three large ships quickly advanced for another half an hour, approaching the ring-shaped island where Zhang Ling had stayed before.
However, at this moment, the ring-shaped island had changed even more, and was no longer the original island.
A towering spiritual light rose from the ring-shaped island, like a pillar of light connecting the sky and the earth, plunging into the sky. The entire sky was filled with churning clouds, and vaguely, it seemed that Brahma sounds were ringing.
Upon closer listening, there was no sound at all.
The pillar of light was like a sword light, separating the surrounding environment.
One side was a vast expanse of white, with no end in sight, while the other side was dark, shrouded in a large expanse of black mist. The black and white mists seemed to divide the space there, making it look somewhat unreal.
But vaguely, there seemed to be a huge mountain rising from the sea within the mist. The three large ships headed towards that place and finally stopped several miles away.
Several Nascent Soul old monsters gave some instructions, and then more than a hundred Golden Core cultivators, driving various rays of light, directly broke into the mountain in the mist.
Strangely, the six Nascent Soul cultivators did not enter, it seemed that they had not intended to enter from the beginning.
“I wonder how many of these juniors will come out this time.” The only white-haired, purple-robed old woman among the six gave a sinister laugh.
“Fellow Daoist Yin Po, those female disciples of your Heavenly Yin Sect, I see that their cultivation is not weak, one of them seems to be your closed-door disciple, what is there to worry about. The descendants of my clan are not as good…” The fat old man seemed to have thought of something.
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the purple-robed old woman with a gloomy expression.
“Old Devil Ying, don't you dare lay a hand on these female disciples under this old woman. I still have to settle the old score from a hundred years ago with you when I have time.”
Judging from this, the two were not on good terms and seemed to have a lot of grievances.
“Why does Fellow Daoist still remember the old events of a hundred years ago, although my grandson was wrong that time, I also made compensation to the Heavenly Yin Sect, why bother holding on to it.” The fat old man heard this obvious threat, laughed, and his face did not look good.
He and this old woman of the Heavenly Yin Sect did not have direct grievances, but a hundred years ago his grandson offended this person. He was almost killed, so he formed some grudges. But such a long time has passed, and she still remembers.
If the Heavenly Yin Sect were not somewhat special, he would never give this old woman any good looks.
The other old monsters, hearing the words of the two, pricked up their ears, seemingly unaware of the grievances between the two, and all had a bit of curiosity in their expressions.
But the fat old man and the purple-robed woman did not say much.
The blood-haired man frowned, and strangely glanced at the purple-robed old woman, although he did not speak, he asked in a voice transmission.
“Fellow Daoist actually has a feud with this old fellow, will it affect our agreement?”
“Fellow Daoist Xue, rest assured, my affair with Old Devil Ying is just a small matter, it will not affect our plan, that puppet will definitely belong to you afterwards.” The purple-robed old woman did not look at the blood-haired man, but quickly replied.
“Alright, fellow Daoists, let's go and investigate the nearby area, the main goal this time, although it is to send the juniors into Wind Demon Island, we are also responsible for checking the ancient formation here, which is related to the safety of our alien demon race, we must not be careless. We must also prevent the possibility of demon beasts advancing to the eighth rank or above.” The black-robed youth suddenly spoke and directly ordered.
The others, hearing this, looked at each other and nodded silently. The six old monsters exchanged a few more words and separated to investigate the nearby area.
Only the red-haired man holding the copper plate and the black-robed youth acted together, directly entering the sea.
Looking at the position, it was the sea eye that Zhang Ling had entered.
