Chapter 1202: Fierce Battle In The Sea
On the top platform of Feilai Peak, Liu Ming glanced at the surrounding situation and said to Gan Ruping,
“Okay, we should go too. Remember to follow me closely after entering the sea. Don’t make any moves without my order.”
“Brother Ming, don’t worry.” Gan Ruping stuck out her tongue and nodded vigorously.
Liu Ming raised his robe, and the billowing black air enveloped the 2 of them in an instant. They turned into a ball of black light and rushed into the west of the sea where the 5 sects of the Great Xuan Kingdom disappeared…
Half an hour later, the Sea Emperor Palace, which stretched for more than ten miles, was suddenly surrounded by densely packed Yunchuan Alliance’s cultivators.
At this time, the Sea Emperor Palace had already entered a state of full alert. The outermost part of the entire Sea Emperor Palace was 9 giant towers with a height of 300 meters. A semicircular blue shield that was as solid as crystal covered the entire Sea Emperor Palace.
A loud dragon chant came from the blue light curtain!
There were lifelike blue dragons baring their teeth and claws while wandering on the blue light curtain. There were 9 in total.
Inside the light curtain, the first thing that caught the eyes were the 4 giant hermit crabs located in the east, west, north, south of the Sea Emperor Palace. There were dozens of 3 meters holes on the black shell. The pair of giant claws the size of a small mountain shake slightly with pressing momentum.
Around the giant hermit crabs, there were huge bronze warships, puppet chariots and dense animal-shaped puppets that filled in the gaps between the warships and chariots.
The Sea Emperor Palace’s cultivators in blue armor stood on the warships and chariots with solemn expressions. All of them formed battle formations.
On a large open space more than 10 miles west of the Sea Emperor Palace, nearly 2000 cultivators of the 5 major sects of the Great Xuan Kingdom, including the Savage Ghost Sect, were divided into 5 battle formations.
Liu Ming, Gan Ruping, and 5 Crystallization Period cultivators of the 5 major sects hovered above the 5 battle formations.
“It seems that Siren King has managed the Sea Emperor Palace quite well in the past hundred years. This strength alone is enough to be invincible in this Sea Region.” Liu Ming looked at the heavily guarded Sea Emperor Palace in the distance and said so.
“As far as I know, this is only a small part of the Sea Emperor Palace’s forces. This time, thanks to Elder Liu’s decisive attack and the timing of the counterattack is well-timed. Most of the army couldn’t be transferred back in time. Now, most of the Sea Creature Clan didn’t participate in it. If it is another half a month, I’m afraid there will be more than the soldiers.” The old man surnamed Yan nodded and said.
“Let’s not waste time and start the attack now! Once Siren King appears, I will deal with him.” Liu Ming rubbed his nose and said lightly.
When the old man surnamed Yan heard the words, he raised one hand.
A green light flashed out from his robe and burst apart in the sea water. The thunderous sound spread in the underwater.
The war started!
The sea water in the 4 directions of the Sea Emperor Palace seemed to be boiling instantly. Various shouting and incantations sounded one after another.
Under the colorful shields, all the cultivators rushed toward the Sea Emperor Palace in an orderly manner.
In the west, Savage Ghost Sect, Tianyue Sect, Windfire Sect, Blood River Hall, and Jiuqiao Mountain’s battle formations stopped a few miles away from Sea Emperor Palace.
Following the order of the 5 people including the old man surnamed Yan, dozens of cultivators flew out from the 5 battle formations in an instant. These people were holding all kinds of spiritual weapons and talismans that were radiant. They were the Spirit Masters of the respective sects.
As soon as these people appeared, they recited incantations. Accompanied by dazzling symbols and various sword qi, spiritual light, demonic creatures, puppets and spiritual beasts, a large cloud of bubbles suddenly appeared in the sea water and shot toward the Sea Emperor Palace.
Seeing that the various Spirit Masters had already made their moves, some Spirit Apostles behind them took out various talismans and spiritual weapons and cooperated with the attacks of the Spirit Masters to instantly turn a large area in front into a colorful light curtain. The light curtain gushed straight toward the blue light shield above the Sea Emperor Palace.
Rumbling explosions came one after another!
On the blue light curtain, rows of extremely dazzling huge light clusters and halos of various colors emerged continuously, turning into circles of astonishing ripples..
However, with the roar of the 2 blue dragons, the surrounding seawater turned into streams of water and submerged into the blue light curtain. The light curtain only trembled a few times without showing sign of collapse.
Immediately afterward, Sea Emperor Palace counterattacked.
Waves of light beams and spiritual lights shot out from the bronze warships, puppet chariots and beast-shaped puppets, and shot toward the human cultivators through the light curtain.
When the 5 major sects launched the second wave of attacks, the attacks of the 2 sides collided in the sea. Under the dense impacts, hundreds of vortexes appeared in between them.
At the same time, the Alliance army in the other 3 directions had also launched a stormy attack.
Except for the Yuanmo Sect, Zhaode Sect, and Wanmiao Sect whose attacks could barely hit the blue light curtain, the attacks from the other 3 directions were intercepted halfway.
There were loud explosions everywhere, and all kinds of lights intertwined. The situation became a stalemate for a while.
“These Sea Emperor Palace’s cultivators seem to be just defending. I’m afraid they want to buy time!”
Seeing this, Tianyue Sect’s Senior Nun Leng Yue of the west side battle group shouted angrily. A golden light flashed in his hand, and a golden long sword flew out. After circling, it turned into a large golden sword shadow and slashed forward. Dozens of light beams slashed at the blue light curtain.
The old man surnamed Yan directly released the flying silver zombie. It shook both claws and launched a dozen giant claw lights with rolling silver flames.
Dozens of Crystallization Period human cultivators cast their spiritual weapons and puppets and joined the battle one after another.
The battle suddenly entered an unprecedented white-hot state.
With these Crystallization Period cultivators joining the battle, the situation immediately turned to their side. The large number of attacks made the blue light curtain shake wildly.
Especially on the east side of the Sea Emperor Palace, after the 2 Pseudo Pellet State cultivators of Yuan Mo and the man surnamed Mo attacked, the attacks of the Alliance completely overwhelmed the resistance of the Sea Emperor Palace army and directly hit the blue light curtain.
Even though this shield was very extraordinary. It gradually became shaky. The blue dragons wandering above also wailed.
Suddenly, a loud and clear conch sound came from the Sea Emperor Palace!
The giant hermit crabs that were standing motionless suddenly moved at the same time. They walked out of the blue light curtain and walked toward the Alliance army slowly.
There was a burst of screeching sounds like a metal collision!
The attacks of the Alliance’s cultivators couldn’t go through the shells of these giant hermit crabs. Even the attacks of Yuan Mo and the man surnamed Mo were useless.
“What are these creatures? They seem to be ordinary Crystallization Period sea beastkins, but why is their defense so sturdy?” Wanmiao Sect Fairy Shi said in amazement.
“Don’t think so much. These sea beastkins aren’t fast. Before they approach, ignore them and attack the blue light curtain directly!” Yuan Mo pondered for a moment and said very decisively.
As he finished speaking, he lifted 1 hand. A silver spear with demonic qi appeared. It flicked and turned into a giant python with silver patterns. It drew an arc, bypassed the giant hermit crab and shot straight toward the light curtain.
The other cultivators also did the same. They all ignored the giant hermit crabs and launched attacks directly toward the light curtain.
After less than half an hour of violent bombardment. The blue light curtain trembled violently. Although the blue dragons were still continuously devouring the sea water power, the blue light curtain was still a lot dimmer.
At this time, the 4 giant hermit crabs rushed to half the distance between the two sides under the intense attacks.
Immediately afterward, a sudden change occurred!
The bodies of these hermit crabs, which were originally exposed outside the shell, retracted into the shell at the same time.
The next moment, the dense holes on the shell suddenly burst into light, and a large cloud of air bubbles emerged from it.
Accompanied by air bubbles, white swordfishes like sharp swords came out of these holes. There were hundreds of them. Each swordfish had a black pustule on its back.
They rushed toward the human cultivators swiftly.
All the Alliance’s cultivators were concentrating on attacking the blue light curtain outside the Sea Emperor Palace, so they didn’t expect such quick attacks from these slow-moving giant hermit crabs.
Although the Crystallization Period cultivators above reacted quickly and wanted to give orders, the white swordfishes had already reached a few hundred meters in front of the army.
At this moment, the black pustules on the backs of these white swordfish burst simultaneously, ejecting a large amount of black liquid, The nearby sea area was black as ink.
Just when the Alliance’s cultivators were in chaos, sharp white swords shot out from the darkness.
There were dreadful screams everywhere!
Although the cultivation of these white swordfishes was not high, a sudden attack at such speed immediately caused chaos for the cultivators. Many Spirit Apostle Stage cultivators were directly pierced to death. Many Condensation Period Spirit Masters were also injured.
In an instant, nearly 2,000 of the nearly 10,000 Alliance army in the 4 directions were killed or injured. The situation became somewhat precarious for them.
The Crystallization Period cultivators above were startled. They could only resist the attack from the Sea Emperor Palace while killing the white swordfishes below, trying to stabilize the situation.
But these white swordfishes shuttled back and forth among the army, which were quite difficult to deal with.
The blue dragons on the blue light curtain devoured the nearby sea water power frantically, making the blue light curtain solid again.
