Roar!
The giant turtle sea beast also knew things were bad, frantically twisting its massive body and stirring up layers of giant waves, causing the black chains trapping it to break apart inch by inch.
It raised its head and spat out a mouthful of murky green liquid, hitting the descending spiritual talisman.
The liquid spat out by the giant turtle transformed into a ball of black flames in mid-air, with some characters enveloping the descending spiritual light.
But the light transformed from the spiritual talisman suddenly brightened, then split into three clumps of earthen yellow light, swaying left and right, revolving around the giant turtle.
Following this, countless dense yellow runes flew out, gradually transforming into three earthen yellow stone walls over ten zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) high.
With a boom, they slammed onto the sea surface, and immediately a layer of dense earthen yellow light cover rose up, trapping the giant turtle in place.
At this moment, the white-robed old man steered his black escaping light towards another battlefield on the horizon.
There, a large expanse of red clouds covered half the sky, with countless fireballs and wind blades densely packed.
On the other side of the water, two flood dragons stirred up a piece of seawater, forming a huge vortex, which trapped a clump of golden light.
...
At this moment, Zhang Ling looked at the scene unfolding with a face full of shock.
He first saw Wang Jun leading thirty-odd Foundation Establishment cultivators using an array to besiege the high-level sea beast that was releasing lightning.
But in an instant, they were ambushed, and many people were killed, and the sea beast broke free.
Then the white-robed old man surnamed Wu arrived in a rage, and then trapped a giant turtle.
This series of situations only happened within a short span of a dozen breaths.
Suddenly, something on Zhang Ling's waist vibrated, and with a lift of his hand, a wooden plate appeared in his hand, flashing with a layer of red light.
This was his identity plate in this place.
"It seems the situation isn't optimistic. This is a signal to summon us Foundation Establishment cultivators."
Wang Cai Die, this woman, also held her own token, her face looking a little unsightly as she spoke.
"Alas, we must also go and gather."
Xu Ji also said with a gloomy face.
These two had also seen what happened outside the array earlier, and they both vaguely felt that something had happened.
Then, after instructing the three Qi Refining peak disciples to command the team, they released their magical artifacts and flew towards the central main peak, with Wang Cai Die and Zhang Ling following closely behind.
...
On the main peak, a middle-aged man in a green robe looked coldly at the fifty-odd Foundation Establishment cultivators gathered before him.
These people were all small teams of cultivators split up on several mountain peaks to defend against the enemy.
Apart from some Foundation Establishment cultivators controlling the array, the Windless Valley Foundation Establishment cultivators had basically all arrived.
"All fellow Daoists present, the situation is now critical.
There is a sixth-order sea beast attacking the array here, and if it cannot be controlled, the array is in danger of being broken.
Now we can only re- summon some cultivators to deal with that high-level sea beast, are there any fellow Daoists willing to go into battle with me?"
"Hmph, I just listened to your nonsense and almost died.
I've just returned and will never go out again."
A big man with a scar on his face coldly snorted with dissatisfaction.
"Although Fellow Daoist Xu has contributed earlier, now isn't the situation special? If the array is broken, none of you present will have the slightest chance of escaping to the sky."
"It's easy to say, your information itself is wrong, not to mention whether you can control that high-level sea beast, you don't even know, do you? There is still a high-level cultivator outside eyeing covetously waiting for us to go out, I will not go out again."
"Even if the array is broken, with our strength, as long as we are careful, and don't encounter high-level sea beasts, there is still a great chance to escape."
"What, there is a high-level cultivator launching a sneak attack."
"Fellow Daoist Xu, is this true?"
"Xu doesn't need to lie to you, just now that high-level cultivator even killed the leading Fellow Daoist Wang Jun, and there are also several cultivators who escaped back with me, enough to confirm what I said."
"What, Fellow Daoist Wang is also dead!"
For a time, many cultivators were in an uproar, Zhang Ling stood in the left corner, coldly watching all this.
At this moment, he was also thinking about the current situation in his heart.
At the same time, at the foot of the main peak, a twenty-odd zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) long green thunder fish was constantly dancing its body in the waves, forming a dozen thick water currents with the crackling sound of lightning, hitting the array of light screen in front.
Behind this sea beast, countless low-level sea beasts seemed to be surrounding in an organized manner, constantly attacking this side of the array light screen.
For a time, the light screen on this side flickered on and off, becoming unstable.
The occurrence of this situation foreshadows that the most dangerous moment has arrived.
High-level sea beasts, in addition to their own powerful strength, also have a certain ability to organize and control low-level sea beasts.
Although the array outside Windless Valley is not weak, and the defensive power is comprehensive, it also has weaknesses.
As long as a large number of sea beasts attack one place, there is a high probability of breaking this kind of array.
Breaking the surface with a point, this is also a means for cultivators to break the magic array.
Therefore, don't look down on the low-level sea beasts' weak attack power, but once they have organization, it is very terrifying.
For a time, although the sea beasts' attacks in other directions weakened, a large number of sea beasts attacking one place also made the array precarious.
"Senior Brother Liu, what should we do now?
Senior Brother Wang Jun has really fallen?"
A red-skirted girl behind the middle-aged man in the green robe stepped forward and asked, looking at the many Foundation Establishment cultivators who were discussing animatedly.
"Alas, what this person said is true.
Senior Brother Wang is already dead.
Now Master and Senior Uncle are being held back by the high-level sea beasts, if we don't think of a way, the array won't last long either."
Liu Yuanzhong looked at a array plate in his hand, his brow furrowed.
Then he looked at the many Foundation Establishment cultivators, his face gloomy.
Now there is no Golden Core stage cultivator guarding, and Wang Jun is dead, he can't suppress these Foundation Establishment cultivators either.
It is probably impossible to get them to go out to deal with that high-level sea beast.
Just then, suddenly a sound transmission talisman flew to him, Liu Yuanzhong grabbed it and checked the information inside, his face suddenly turning green and white.
"What's wrong, Senior Brother Liu?"
The red-skirted woman standing behind this person quickly asked.
Liu Yuanzhong did not answer, but his face suddenly turned cold, and the aura on his body suddenly completely released.
This person has Foundation Establishment late stage strength, and his aura is not weak, immediately causing the noisy crowd of cultivators to look at him one by one.
"Hmph, now that life and death are at stake, do you still expect to be able to escape after the array is broken?
People with this kind of idea will only die faster."
Liu Yuanzhong glared at everyone with his eyes.
"Don't you think about it, the sea beasts' attacks have already passed for more than a day.
Except for the places guarded by the array, the surrounding hundreds of miles are already a vast ocean.
These seawater will not recede for several days."
"There are still a large number of sea beasts in it, and it is not known if there are other hidden high-level sea beasts.
Even if you escape from this place, you will face a large number of sea beast attacks, then, how many of you can really be safe and sound?"
