Chapter 1370
The Helplessness of Ordinary Monks
At this time, although Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King did not use methods to enhance his strength like Xinghai Ancestor and Haijiao Ancestor, his strength was still good after all.
For this reason, with his full support, he successfully helped the Sea Dragon Ancestor to make up the slight gap between himself and the Star Sea Ancestor.
The two sides fought to a 50-50 tie again.
However, this is not what the Sea Dragon Ancestor wants. He only wants to injure or kill the Star Sea Ancestor as soon as possible. Only in this way can he dissolve the method of enhancing his strength and reduce the damage to his bloodline.
But based on his current strength, it cannot be changed at all, and in the end, this turning point can only fall on the head of Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King.
But the Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King is no fool.
Now, the 50-50 situation is undoubtedly the best outcome for it.
After all, the current Xinghai Patriarch and Haijiao Patriarch were able to enter the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, all relying on that kind of extremely powerful secret method, and the side effects of this method are generally extremely great.
Indirectly, as long as the battle continues, even if the two have not yet decided the winner, they will both fall into the side effects of the secret technique and may even fall directly into the state of incarnation.
'When that happens, it will be my chance to gain the advantage.'
The eyes of the Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King were full of brilliance.
As for the old sea dragon ancestor who was constantly threatening it, in its eyes, it was nothing more than a dead dog...
at the same time.
When the Sea Dragon Ancestor saw the current behavior of the Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King, he naturally guessed what he was thinking, and suddenly he was filled with countless resentments.
'This damn sick cat actually plotted against me.'
Then he looked at the Xinghai Ancestor who was fighting with him, and with a little expectation, he conveyed something in a vague voice.
"Xinghai old man, would you please stop?"
It has been set up now. Unless the Xinghai Patriarch is willing to stop, even if he knows the plan of the Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King, he can only grit his teeth and continue to maintain the secret method.
Otherwise, if it is lifted casually, it will only give Xinghai Patriarch a chance...
"You were the one who wanted to hit me, and you were the one who said to stop. Do you think the world revolves around you?"
At this moment, the Xinghai Ancestor, who was extremely powerful and was fighting two enemies alone, sneered when he heard the message from the Haijiao Ancestor suddenly appear in his mind.
How could he not see the subtle relationship between the Sea Dragon Ancestor and the Void Sky Demon Flame Tiger King?
But he really didn't want to miss this opportunity.
The Sea Dragon Ancestor wanted to take this opportunity to severely injure or kill it.
How could he not have this idea?
Moreover, the current strength of the Sea Dragon Ancestor is extraordinary, even not weaker than it, and already has some shadows of a real dragon...and it is said that a real dragon is not only powerful, but also has an extremely long lifespan.
If this were to happen, and if the dragon were left alone, its lifespan alone would be enough to outlast the Xinghai Patriarch.
By then, even if the Xinghai Pavilion had a new god-transforming master to take over, and successfully refined the pavilion's guardian treasure, the Xinghai Banner, to the fifth-grade mid-level realm, it would still be no match for this dragon.
Furthermore, the main reason why this dragon could reach its current state was because it obtained a large amount of dragon blood and flesh from the Black Dragon Ancestor several years ago...
And this Black Dragon Ancestor is still alive in this world, but because of the injuries from the battle, his strength at the Spiritual Transformation level is extremely weak, and the only thing that can match his body is the Shadowless Void Treasure Mirror, a magical treasure that can be used to defeat him.
Under such circumstances, if the Sea Dragon Ancestor wanted to attack him again in the future, how could he resist? In the end, he would probably once again become an opportunity that belonged to the Sea Dragon Ancestor...
But this is not good for the future development of Xinghai Pavilion.
Therefore, no matter what, this battle must continue. Even if he fails to achieve success, he will have to drag the Sea Dragon Ancestor down because his secret technique consumes too much energy and suffers a backlash, which makes his foundation unstable and even injured...
Of course, even so, the Star Sea Ancestor would suffer the backlash of the secret method, but he didn't care. It was difficult to enter the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation anyway, and he didn't have much hope in this life.
As long as he can get through this incident safely, the Sea Dragon Ancestor will definitely not be able to stir up any trouble in the future.
And he can also concentrate on tempering the Star Sea Banner.
And when this banner is completed, he will surely be able to use it to once again become the strongest person in the world.
It is precisely for this reason that the Star Sea Ancestor had no scruples and even increased his offensive, as if he was determined to have a decisive battle with the Sea Dragon Ancestor.
This also made the Sea Dragon Ancestor cry without tears.
The ally, Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King, designed a plan to trap it.
The enemy, Xinghai Patriarch, is not willing to die.
"What should I do now?"
The Sea Dragon Ancestor really didn't know what to do, so he could only grit his teeth and continue fighting.
"Xinghai Patriarch's move is exactly what I want."
The Demon Flame Tiger King Xutian, who was standing aside, was secretly delighted.
"In the end, it's not bad that both sides suffer losses. At least, I don't have to worry about them being too strong and targeting me again in the future."
And the Black Dragon Ancestor, who was easily defeated by the Extreme Cold Female Emperor, was secretly happy.
Although it is a dragon, it seems to be a good thing. After all, its strength is stronger than that of cultivators or monsters with similar cultivation.
But whether it is the Star Sea Banner in the hands of the Star Sea Ancestor or the Sea Dragon Ancestor himself, they both have a demand for the flesh and blood of this divine dragon.
For this reason, several years ago, it was targeted by the Star Sea Ancestor and the Sea Dragon Ancestor respectively, and eventually lost a large amount of flesh and blood.
If not for the invisible mirror in its hand that controlled the avenue of space and was a life-saving weapon, it would have died miserably long ago.
In addition, given his current situation, he also knew that in the future, whether it was the Star Sea Ancestor or the Sea Dragon Ancestor, they would definitely target him again.
As for why he would participate in this battle, it was naturally because he did not want Xinghai Patriarch to safely refine the Xinghai Banner to the fifth-level intermediate grade. Otherwise, if Xinghai Patriarch was in a state of complete victory and obtained that treasure, I am afraid that his strength would also reach the level of invincibility.
By then, it is possible that the Xinghai Ancestor will be able to capture him alive.
At that time, it was even worse...
……
the other side.
As for the demon side, the other two demon gods, the Red Buddha Demon Lord and the Demon Gu Taoist Lord, as well as the Platinum Taoist Master of the Four Immortal Alliance and the Extreme Cold Female Emperor of the Extreme Cold Immortal Palace on the righteous side, all had complicated expressions at this moment.
But all of them stayed away from the place where the Star Sea Ancestor, Sea Dragon Ancestor and Void Sky Demon Flame Tiger King were fighting, so as not to be involved.
With their strength, it would be difficult for them to intervene in such a war.
……
at the same time.
On Xinghai Island.
“I didn’t expect that both Xinghai Patriarch and Haijiao Patriarch could rely on their secret techniques to temporarily enter that realm!”
"........."
Millions of cultivators who had killed hundreds of millions of monsters were all extremely shocked when they saw the great battle in the sky between the Star Sea Ancestor, whose strength had temporarily reached the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation, and the Sea Dragon Ancestor.
Ling Pengyun and other powerful Yuanying Perfection masters felt a sinking feeling in their hearts because they saw what Xinghai Patriarch was thinking.
"After this battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the ancestor to recover to the time of complete victory." "It's even possible that the ancestor's life span will be shortened because of this."
“According to legend, the ancestor is already over 2,000 years old. Even if he has extraordinary means and some means of prolonging his life, I’m afraid he will only have about 1,000 years left in his life. If more time passes, I’m afraid our sect’s lineage will be unstable.”
"After all, there is no new god-transforming appearing in our sect for the time being."
"As cultivators, we all rely on the sect as our backer to gain a foothold. If anything unexpected happens to the sect, I'm afraid we won't have an easy life."
"........."
Putting aside their distracting thoughts, Ling Pengyun, Master Yun Qian, and Old Lady Tianhuo all went to find Great Elder Xingqing who was recuperating on the island.
"Uncle Xingqing, do you have any formation that can help us to reach the ancestor?"
Ling Pengyun asked with some worry.
Ancestor Xinghai had been very kind to him, and now Ancestor Xinghai had taken the initiative to rush into the crisis and wanted to fight with Ancestor Haijiao to a mutual defeat. How could he just stand by and watch?
And if he could help Old Ancestor Xinghai, he could also use that secret technique for a while, which would be a good thing for Old Ancestor Xinghai.
But relying solely on Ling Pengyun's own strength, he is simply unable to intervene in a battle of that level.
Fortunately, the formations in this world are extraordinary. As long as you have a high-level formation in your hand, it may be enough to achieve the effect of fighting against enemies of higher levels.
And Great Elder Xing Qing is the one with the highest attainments in the sect's formations, and has even reached the quasi-fifth level...
Master Yunqian and the other two also had this idea.
They had also received favors from the Xinghai Ancestor in the past.
For this reason, they all turned their eyes to Great Elder Xing Qing, hoping to seek answers.
"The quasi-fifth-level island protection formation on Xinghai Island is of extremely high quality and has a spiritual treasure with a divine foundation as a formation tool. Therefore, through some special methods, this formation has a chance to intervene in the battle between those levels, but the probability is very small."
"But it can only launch one attack at most, and afterwards, its attack array will most likely be severely damaged or even destroyed because it cannot withstand such a huge power..."
"As for whether to use that method, it is up to you to decide. After all, the formation is precious, and I alone cannot decide its future. You are all high-ranking members of the sect, so you should have the right to participate in this decision."
Great Elder Xing Qing naturally knew the situation outside, so after hearing this, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
"Try it."
"However, Uncle Master, can the formation on the island really unleash such power?"
Ling Pengyun was a little surprised.
It takes a quasi-fifth-level formation to have only a small chance of getting involved in such a war?
The price is indeed a bit high. After all, even the Xinghai Pavilion probably does not have many such powerful formations.
Not to mention, the formation tool of this formation is a precious treasure with the foundation of the Divine Transformation, which is a rare thing.
But the future of Xinghai Patriarch was obviously more important, so Ling Pengyun made a decision immediately.
The old True Lord Yun Qian and the old Female Lord Tian Huo also agreed.
But they were all extremely curious as to why that formation could unleash such power.
After all, although the power unleashed by the previous formation was strong, and could even resist the Nascent Soul Perfection strongman of the Sea Dragon Clan who possessed a defensive spiritual treasure with the foundation of the Divine Transformation, he was still a long way from the Divine Transformation level.
Upon seeing this, Great Elder Xing Qing showed a hint of joy on his face.
Xinghai Patriarch is his master, so how could he not want to help? However, the price of helping is too high, and he cannot afford it alone...
But with Ling Pengyun and others helping us, there will be no problem.
As for the secret of the formation, he did not hide it, but simply explained it.
"When our ancestors first refined that formation, they were planning to refine a fifth-order formation. To this end, they looked for various high-level spiritual materials, even mixed in a few fifth-order spiritual materials, and even specially refined a treasure with the foundation of the Spiritual Transformation as the formation tool."
"It's a pity that the fifth-level formation is difficult to refine. In the end, the senior only refined it to the quasi-fifth-level state... But the materials used to refine this formation are better after all, so its foundation is quite extraordinary."
"And that senior was also extremely talented. After successfully refining this formation, he made some changes, and finally made it into a special combination formation."
When Ling Pengyun and others heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The combined formation is different from the ordinary formation.
It is said that this formation is not only more difficult to refine, but also requires more materials.
But its power is even stronger, and its effect is also extraordinary. When necessary, it can even forcibly absorb the spiritual power of any cultivator as energy...
'If that's the case, then everything makes sense.'
Ling Pengyun said secretly.
At this moment, Great Elder Xing Qing raised his hand and summoned the formation plate of the island protection formation on Xinghai Island.
And keep making gestures and hitting it.
In an instant, the array plate flashed with bright light and flew directly out of the cave. Instead, it hovered high in the sky, spreading out infinite suction force and attracting all the spiritual energy around it.
At the same time, countless array patterns were scattered all over the Star Island.
"There is not much spiritual energy on the island, and this formation has not reached its limit. It seems that I have to use that method."
At this time, Great Elder Xing Qing frowned.
Then, he used the sound-enhancing technique and spoke loudly.
"My fellow islanders, I am the Grand Elder of Xinghai Pavilion. I hope you can mobilize your spiritual power to penetrate into the ground of Xinghai Island and help the formation on the island to operate."
"I need the help of this formation, the Sky Transformation Battlefield."
As soon as these words were spoken, they spread throughout the entire Xinghai Island.
The monks on the island were all slightly stunned. Based on these words, they also guessed that the formation on Xinghai Island was a large combined formation.
But it was precisely because of this that a doubt arose in their minds.
According to the miraculous effect of the combined formation, if the great elder of Xinghai Pavilion had informed them of this matter before and activated the formation together, this formation would be impregnable, and the hundreds of millions of monsters would not be able to break it and break into the island to cause chaos?
However, after that, this group of monks glanced around and saw the corpses of monsters everywhere, and they immediately understood what was going on.
"I'm afraid that the great elder is using us as a trigger and doing this on purpose to ignite the monsters' determination to kill us, so that he can find an opportunity to destroy them completely."
But such a result made them feel sad.
They survived a near-death experience and the disaster they had to go through turned out to be just a trap set by a big shot?
And they are just pawns...
As for those fellows who had died tragically at the hands of monsters when monsters broke into the island, they were the victims of the big shots’ plan…
Although they were angry, they did not dare to express it.
How could such a person be provoke by small people like them? But then again, those who were able to survive this time had made a small profit by killing many monsters...
Countless sighs continued to ring out.
Afterwards, many people's eyes became dull, and they began to transfer their spiritual energy into the depths of the earth according to the instructions of Great Elder Xing Qing.
As for the reason, it might be because he was afraid of angering Great Elder Xingqing, or it might be for the sake of the overall situation... (End of this chapter)
