556: Chapter 556 The Beast Tide Arrives, Defensive Deployment!

Its massive body swelled once more, growing an eighth arm.

The Feather Clan Queen reached Perfection in her comprehension of the Wind Law, likewise drawing down the Profound Immortal Lightning Tribulation.

Under the protection of the Heavenly Thunder Demon-Slaying Tower, she easily underwent her tribulation and stepped into the Profound Immortal Early Stage Realm.

Aside from the two leaders, over a thousand True Immortal stage warriors were born on the island.

Two at the Profound Immortal Early Stage, over a thousand True Immortals, and those at the Great Ascension Stage were as numerous as hair on an ox.

These hundreds of thousands of citizens multiplied and cultivated on the island, and the Karma and Laws they emanated completely completed the Heavenly Dao of Daluo Island.

The Laws of the immortal island had reached Perfection. Sitting cross-legged beneath the ancient bodhi tree, Lu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

His double pupils reflected the prosperous scene of the entire Daluo Island.

A self-sufficient ecological defense line and a perfect Law-manufacturing machine were finally completed at this moment.

The first war fortress belonging to the Daluo Immortal Dynasty stood tall in the Chaos Sea of the ancient immortal era.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged beneath the ancient bodhi tree and closed his eyes, feeling the feedback brought by the perfected Laws of Daluo Island.

This feedback was not a common Spiritual Qi empowerment, but the purest world Origin of the Immortal Ancient Heavenly Dao.

The multiplication of the hundreds of thousands of citizens on Daluo Island, the erection of the city walls, the operation of the Formations, and the birth of thousands of True Immortals together wove a complete, massive web of Laws.

This power of Origin flowed continuously into Lu Yuan's body through the connection of the Creation Boundary Tablet.

Lu Yuan's Immortal Lord Dao Fruit burst with brilliant golden light in his Sea of Consciousness. Under the washing of this world Origin, the originally somewhat blurry patterns on the surface of the Dao Fruit became incomparably clear and solid.

He could feel that he had already touched the barrier of the Immortal Lord Middle Stage.

He only needed to brand his Dao Seal into this space-time to completely cross this threshold.

In the external space-time, late night descended, and the violent Chaos Sea churned in the darkness.

"Ding!"

In Lu Yuan's mind, the System's prompt sounded right on time. The hour of Zi had arrived, and the daily intelligence refreshed.

Lu Yuan focused his mind, and the System's virtual panel expanded before his field of vision.

[Purple Intelligence: Three days later at the hour of Zi, Daluo Island will welcome its first Chaos Beast Tide. The scale of this beast tide is rated as Calamity-grade, commanded by a Chaos Star-Swallowing Python at the Profound Immortal Peak, whose subordinates include one hundred thousand Chaos Armored Beasts from the Great Ascension Stage to the True Immortal stage.]

[Purple Intelligence: The surface of the Chaos Armored Beast swarm is covered with absolute magic-resistant shells, and ordinary Spell attacks cannot cause effective damage to them.

This swarm possesses a hive mind. The charges, Formations, and attacks of all armored beasts are controlled by high-frequency sound waves emitted by three Guide Blind Owls in the center-rear of the swarm.]

[Golden Intelligence: Inside the Profound Immortal Peak Chaos Star-Swallowing Python, a trace of a rare Space Origin Crystal Core is nurtured.

This strange beast has an extremely powerful Physical Body with almost no blind spots in its defense. Its sole weakness lies in the seventh grayish-white reverse scale under its jaw. This reverse scale is fragile and fears the combined attack of cold attributes and penetrative Laws.]

After Lu Yuan finished reading these three pieces of intelligence, a cold, sharp, dark light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

An Immortal Lord cannot directly intervene in the development and defense of the immortal island; this is the prerequisite for nurturing the Laws.

To obtain the strongest feedback from the Heavenly Dao, the citizens of the immortal island must go through this war of blood and fire.

Lu Yuan's Divine Thought was like an invisible giant web, instantly covering the entirety of Daluo Island.

"Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief, Feather Clan Queen, come to the main hall to see me."

Lu Yuan's voice sounded directly in their Seas of Consciousness. A moment later, inside the Chaos Main Hall at the center of Daluo Island.

The Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief, whose body had already swelled to a hundred Zhang and grown eight thick arms, and the Feather Clan Queen, who had four pairs of pure white wings on her back and a cold temperament, quickly walked into the hall.

Both of them emanated the powerful pressure of the Profound Immortal Early Stage, but when facing Lu Yuan, who sat high upon his throne, they immediately restrained all their aura and respectfully knelt on one knee.

"Greetings, Island Master." The two said in unison. Lu Yuan sat upright on the throne made of Taiyi Fine Gold, his gaze sweeping over these two capable generals.

"Three days later at the hour of Zi, Daluo Island will face its first beast tide," Lu Yuan's voice echoed in the hall, calm yet carrying an unquestionable majesty.

"The scale of this beast tide is Calamity-grade, with one hundred thousand Chaos Armored Beasts commanded by a Chaos Star-Swallowing Python at the Profound Immortal Peak."

As soon as these words were spoken, the air in the hall seemed to freeze. One hundred thousand armored beasts like a tsunami, coupled with a Profound Immortal Peak king beast holding the line, was absolute disaster for the newly established Daluo Island.

The Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief clenched his fists, his bones letting out explosive pops, and a trace of solemnity also flashed in the Feather Clan Queen's eyes.

Lu Yuan did not give them time to think and began to issue precise combat orders.

"Feather Clan, hear my command."

"Your subordinate is here." The Feather Clan Queen raised her head.

"Abandon conventional Spell coverage and aimless shooting at the beast swarm."

Lu Yuan pointed to the holographic sea map condensed from Chaos currents in the center of the hall.

"I want you to concentrate all of the Feather Clan's True Immortal-level sharpshooters. At the very start of the battle, ignore the one hundred thousand charging armored beasts.

Your sole objective is the three Guide Blind Owls hidden at the very rear of the swarm.

These three blind owls are the hive brain controlling the hundred-thousand-strong army."

Lu Yuan's gaze was like a blade. "You must completely shoot and blow up those three blind owls at the exact same time in the very first breath of the battle. Can it be done?"

The Feather Clan Queen took a deep breath. "Your subordinate will certainly do her utmost."

Lu Yuan turned to look at the Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief.

"Divine Ape Clan, hear my command."

"Retract all outer defense lines. Without my order, no one from the Divine Ape Clan is permitted to take a single step out of the defensive circle of the Heavenly Thunder Demon-Slaying Tower.

Once the Feather Clan shoots and kills the blind owls, causing the hive mind of the one hundred thousand armored beasts to collapse and their Formation to fall into Chaos, you will then go out to harvest them."

The Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief pounded his broad chest forcefully. "Rest assured, Island Master! We, the Divine Ape Clan, love smashing the heads of headless flies the most."

With the tactical deployment completed, the most core problem lay before them.

"As for that Chaos Star-Swallowing Python at the Profound Immortal Peak," Lu Yuan's gaze fell upon the Feather Clan Queen once more.

"It will be left to you to lead the attack, with the Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief assisting and pinning it down from the side."

The Feather Clan Queen's heart leapt. She had only just broken through to the Profound Immortal Early Stage, so attempting to cross three minor Realms to kill a king beast renowned for its Physical Body and Law of Space was no different from striking a stone with an egg.

She did not shrink back, only tightening her grip on the longbow in her hand. Lu Yuan flicked his finger.

A wisp of extremely cold Taiyin Origin extracted from Immortal Monarch Taiyin's body transformed into an ice-blue stream of light, floating before the Feather Clan Queen.

The temperature of the entire hall suddenly plummeted, and a thick layer of frost formed on the ground.

"The sole weakness of that Star-Swallowing Python lies in the seventh reverse scale under its jaw; it fears cold attributes and penetrative Laws," Lu Yuan analyzed the contents of the Golden Intelligence.

"You are proficient in the Wind Law, and your offensive power is highly penetrative. Integrate this wisp of Taiyin Origin into your lifebound arrow.

Once the battle begins, have the Six-Armed Divine Ape Chief draw all of its attention, while you search for an opportunity to pierce its seventh reverse scale with a single shot."
