Chapter 748 - 363: Explanation and Taking the Fall (Part 2)
The second was Bibo Island, and the third was the more distant Five Dragons Island Sea Region.
But all three points were not close, no matter which one you looked at.
The calm Sword Servant, upon initially encountering the escape of the Tribulation Cultivator, thought of another safe place and secretly used the Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman to communicate with the Twin-Headed Tiger in the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea.
The Twin-Headed Tiger dashed towards her location and even set up an array on a suitable island midway.
In this chase and escape, the cultivators of the Meng Family couldn’t help but grit their teeth. This Female Cultivator was even more familiar with the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea than he was.
Either she passed by islands with gatherings of Yin Spirits, alarming countless Yin Spirits to harass them, or she disappeared into the sea with groups of Demon Beasts below.
"How could a mere early Core Formation cultivator be so familiar with the terrain of the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea?"
Moreover, how long has the other party been in the Core Formation stage?
This instantly made the Meng Family think of Lin Chang’an, the Array Master, and there was a faint trace of regret in their hearts.
With a Mutated Demon Beast and the strength of this trained personal maid, Lin Chang’an surely hides deep secrets.
"We must cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, leaving no troubles behind!"
Despite some regret, it was precisely because of this that he was even more determined not to leave the Sword Servant and the mutated Demon Beast alive.
"This old man would like to see what you can use to block this!"
Rushing forward at high speed, a storm began, with the Sword Servant and the Cyan-Horned Bull weaving through the thunderclouds.
"Almost there, just ahead!"
A glimmer of light flashed in the Sword Servant’s eyes. On the desolate island faintly visible in the distance, the Twin-Headed Tiger had been waiting for a long time.
However, at this moment, a sense of crisis suddenly hit. Without any hesitation, the Sword Servant raised his hand and released seven Mana Shields behind him in quick succession.
"Moo!"
Well accustomed over the years, the Cyan-Horned Bull also reacted promptly, stamping its hooves in the void as it roared with a terrifying mana wave forming a strong defensive shield around them.
"Leave your life here!"
An angry shout came from behind. At this moment, the face of the Meng Family cultivator was ashen, with a few more strands of white in his hair.
Strands of black light shot like a downpour and quickly converged into a black flying needle.
"Flying needle magical treasure!"
The Sword Servant’s face turned pale at this sight, knowing that flying needle class magical treasures were renowned for their strong penetration and protective shattering capabilities.
Before the black light was even visible, it had already reached in front of them.
The seven Mana Shields gathered by the Sword Servant were pierced instantly, and despite the Cyan-Horned Bull’s furious roar, its petrified mutated defense shield only held for a few moments.
With a sharp buzzing, the defensive shield was pierced with a crack.
"Die!"
If previously the Meng Family cultivator wanted a live capture, now he only wished to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots.
Cold glints flickered in his eyes. The Black Blood Divine Needle was a trump card that he and his wife had obtained inside the Secret Realm.
They had even used this magical treasure to kill a late Core Formation cultivator without injury.
"Moo!"
With the shield breached, the Cyan-Horned Bull roared, but the black light was too fast.
The Sword Servant’s pupils still reflected disbelief; the black light had already reached his chest.
In the next moment, lightning flashed, and an ethereal armor projected a thin yet resilient Dragon Scale Armor, propelling the Sword Servant towards the distant desolate island cliff.
A thunderous boom accompanied by mournful cries from the protective armor, the Sword Servant’s figure plummeted into the cliff below.
"Protective Inner Armor!"
The Meng Family cultivator was startled and furious, wondering how a mere early Core Formation Human Cultivator possessed so many protective magical treasures.
First, a mutated Demon Beast, now a Protective Inner Armor.
Lin Chang’an must have significant secrets.
"He mustn’t be left alive."
In a flash, as the Sword Servant fell between the island cliffs, the Meng Family cultivator coldly shouted, releasing his flying sword magical treasure, transforming into countless sword auras shooting down.
"Roar!"
As the Meng Family cultivator descended with sword auras flashing to silence, a tiger’s roar resonated in his ears.
His eyes were cold and indifferent, seeing the roar of the Yin Spirit Beast King as just a sign of a Yin Spirit collecting Spirit Island.
But amidst the tiger’s roar, a sudden appearance of an Array Barrier changed his expression.
"How is this possible!"
The sudden scene left him both startled and enraged at how there could be an Array Trap here.
Completely impossible, as this place was a gathering of Yin Spirits, not a Spiritual Ore being mined by the Seven Kingdoms Alliance; the other party shouldn’t have the time to establish an array.
Yet, as the Array Barrier emerged, it allowed him no time for deliberation.
Three Yin Sha Corpse Puppets with terrifying evil energy emerged from the earth, eyeing the cultivator within the array with a greedy bloodlust.
"Moo!"
From the pile of rocks, the bloodshot-eyed Cyan-Horned Bull roared, causing the ground to shake.
"Cough, cough!"
In the rubble, the Sword Servant coughed up a mouthful of black blood; although protected by the Defensive Inner Armor, the black needle had still pierced the defense.
"Poisoned!"
With a grimace, the Sword Servant gritted his teeth, reaching as a few Antitoxic Pills flew out from the storage bag.
If it hadn’t been for her master using the scales of a Thunder Jiao to forge the Protective Inner Armor, along with her strong constitution as a Human-Demon Mixed Blood, she might have perished today.
Her eyes were now filled with murderous intent; never before had she been in such a dismal state.
This person having intel on her master’s Mutated Spirit Pet couldn’t be allowed to live.
"Mutated Demon Beast, Yin Sha Corpse Puppet, Yin Spirit Beast King, and now an array — who exactly are you?"
At this moment, the Meng Family cultivator was both shocked and furious, realizing he might have stirred a great disaster upon himself.
