420: Kill the two dragons, and they will take refuge one after another (two-in-one, please subscribe for a monthly ticket)
In the vast ocean, against the direction of the tsunami.
The purple wind boat soared against the wind, and Lin Shiming formed hand seals.
Although he was confident of victory, facing three Flood Dragons at this moment, he wasn't entirely sure without using the Star Bead.
At this moment, it was also impossible for Yan Yang Sword to make a move.
Once a Golden Core Cultivator made a move, their combat power would be clearly visible, and then, let alone fishing, it was more likely to attract several Peak Yao Race Demon Kings.
That would not only ruin a good situation but also destroy the Ten Directions Red Crow Formation and the Nine Peaks Formation!
In the Void Realm, the Purple Cloud Twin Swords, carrying abundant purple Qi, condensed into Sword Grass, which also turned purple, greatly increasing its power.
Boom!
Two Wind ่ Cultivators leaped up, transforming into two gigantic azure Flood Dragons over ten zhang long, flicking their tails.
Countless wind blades met the swords, clashing with a clang, clang, clang.
However, Lin Shiming's Sword Intent had long reached the Sword Genesis Myriad Laws Realm.
The outpouring Sword Intent was simply not something wind blades could withstand.
The two Wind ่s then spat out gigantic tornado blasts, sweeping towards Lin Shiming, stirring up countless sea waves. The storm, filled with a large amount of seawater, blotted out the sky and sun.
And in the wind, the two Wind ่s moved with the wind, their speed astonishing.
They approached Lin Shiming for close combat.
The Poison Flood Dragon also shot into the sky, transforming into a massive thirty-zhang black Flood Dragon in mid-air.
This Poison Flood Dragon was somewhat similar to the Flood Dragon he was watching, and it was also Lin Shiming's main target this time.
This time was different from last time; he couldn't escape. This time, even if the Flood Dragon escaped, he would be fine, which would better achieve his goal.
Therefore, he was far less constrained than before.
The Wind ่s relied on their Physical Body and speed for close combat, but Lin Shiming's speed was not weak, and as a Body Cultivator, he could even engage in hand-to-hand combat with Flood Dragons, plus he had the Heavenly Dragon Robe.
Boom!
Lin Shiming's Physical Body, instead of retreating, advanced directly towards one of the Wind ่s with the Leaping Void Disc!
The Wind ่ was also greatly startled and quickly flipped over.
However, Lin Shiming's Taihe Sword struck down instantly, and at the same time, the Five Metal Beast Ring flew towards the Wind ่.
Only two of the five golden beast rings managed to ensnare it, immediately causing continuous beast roars. The spiritual power fluctuations suddenly retracted, then abruptly surged in the next moment.
Even though the Wind ่ was a Flood Dragon known for its speed, its Physical Body strength was far beyond what ordinary Yao Beasts could compare to.
With this retraction and surge, Lin Shiming felt that the Five Metal Beast Ring was struggling.
It seemed as if it was about to explode.
Moreover, the latter still had enough power to continue releasing storms, and its pair of Jiao horns, when slashed through the Void Realm, sent out a huge wind blade that even knocked Lin Shiming's Taihe Sword away.
Within that wind blade, an unknown Law seemed to be brewing, causing Lin Shiming's Sword Intent to be forcibly cut apart.
Only the five beast rings continued to ensnare the Wind ่, with six beasts roaring in unison.
Since the Taihe Sword didn't achieve its effect, Lin Shiming had no choice but to face the full force of the other Wind ่'s breath.
Countless storm tornadoes surrounded him, destroying everything, roaring so loudly that his ears almost went deaf.
The terrifying phenomenon made Lin Shiming somewhat solemn. He formed spiritual seals with both hands again, and the Leaping Void Disc leaped out, dodging the storm.
At the same time, he conjured the illusory spirit vine seed, which instantly produced terrifying vines and then formed a gigantic green gourd the size of a small house.
It wrapped around the remaining Wind ่!
The Illusory Spirit Mist and Illusory Spirit Vine grew rapidly, cutting across the vast sea and sky, heading straight for the Wind ่.
At this moment, the last Poison Flood Dragon also made its move. Although Flood Dragons were arrogant, once they gained intelligence, they wouldn't truly adhere to any single combat principles.
It opened its bloody mouth, transforming into ten poisonous dragons that charged towards Lin Shiming.
These colorful, vibrant poisonous snakes, formed from venom, were incredibly ferocious, like living snakes.
Even if the Illusory Spirit Vine touched them, they instantly turned into green liquid and dripped away.
They couldn't hold on for even a moment.
As for the Illusory Spirit Mist, it was completely ineffective.
Lin Shiming dared not hesitate at this moment. He threw out the Mystic Profound Origin Pearl, and instantly, his body transformed into the Void Realm.
Countless Void Realm Spiritual Roots emerged from the Void Realm, piercing into Lin Shiming's body, instantly transforming him into a void, like a divine wood descending from the heavens within a spatial area.
Various spiritual vines and Spiritual Roots emerged.
Several colorful poisonous snakes all struck the Immortal Wood, corroding a large area.
However, the emphasis of Lin Shiming's Minor Divine Ability was that it was a wood of the Void Realm. At this instant, Lin Shiming's true body was already half-embedded in the Void Realm.
It was impossible to attack Lin Shiming directly, and the residual power of the Shadow of Immortal Wood even sent out countless Spiritual Roots from the Void Realm behind the Poison Flood Dragon, binding it.
Lin Shiming was very satisfied with the Poison Flood Dragon's venom. If the Flood Dragon he was watching could consume its poisonous core, or even its Physical Body, perhaps the Flood Dragon's venom could undergo another transformation.
Pfft!
The Poison Flood Dragon thrashed continuously, moving extremely fast, allowing only a black blur to be seen.
But it couldn't withstand the constant emergence of vines from the Void Realm, which brutally pierced through its massive Physical Body.
In a short while, it was bound and directly embedded into its flesh and blood.
The Void Realm vines continuously emitted thick smoke, corroded by the blood, but they kept piercing in endlessly.
The Poison Flood Dragon's body was simply too massive.
And Lin Shiming's Mystic Profound Origin Pearl changed again, instantly unleashing the Great Evolution Sword Style, which slashed towards the Poison Flood Dragon.
The Mystic Profound Origin Pearl consisted of eighteen beads. Over these ten years, Lin Shiming had stored three Great Evolution Sword Styles and two Shadows of Immortal Wood.
This was Lin Shiming's greatest trump card.
Roar!
The Poison Flood Dragon continuously wailed and roared. Under the terrifying Sword Intent, the Poison Flood Dragon's body was bleeding venom everywhere.
This venom then transformed into a poisonous mist, enveloping its Physical Body!
However, Lin Shiming's Great Evolution Sword Style was an intangible object, completely unafraid of its venom.
And Lin Shiming's body, under the Leaping Void Disc, disappeared again.
This time, it was a continuous flicker. Even though the other two Wind ่s had recovered and were ready to support the Poison Flood Dragon, it was already too late.
Lin Shiming had unleashed both of his major trump cards, so how could he leave any escape route for the Poison Flood Dragon?
In his hand, three Demonic Blood Needles rushed towards the Poison Flood Dragon.
The Poison Flood Dragon was greatly alarmed. From its mouth, it suddenly spat out a gigantic golden shield.
This shield soared against the wind, instantly growing to tens of zhang.
However, a Yuan Magnetic Divine Light shot out from Lin Shiming's fingertips.
Under the Divine Light, this metal-attributed Magic Treasure, although not completely ineffective,
It also dispersed a large amount of golden light, greatly reducing its power.
The Demonic Blood Needle pierced through the demonic mist and fiercely impaled the Poison Flood Dragon's vital spot.
The clash between the inverse scale and the Demonic Blood Needle immediately produced an extremely painful roar.
The Poison Flood Dragon thrashed wildly, stirring up a tide of poisonous mist in the air.
It was colorful and eerie, like a sea of poison, dazzling yet terrifying.
Lin Shiming's body also disappeared again under the Leaping Void Disc.
The two Wind ่s surged forward frantically, also spitting out Magic Treasures from their mouths. However, the next moment, one collided with the Flood Dragon he was watching, which was spitting out the Sky Whale Spear, while the other collided with the combination of Golden Wings and Hong Mao (Red Fur).
Lin Shiming didn't expect the Flood Dragon he was watching, Golden Wings, and Hong Mao (Red Fur) to completely block two Purple Mansion Late Stage Wind ่s.
But they only needed to delay them for a moment!
Because he had promised the Flood Dragon he was watching the Poison Flood Dragon's Jiao core and corpse if it killed it, the Flood Dragon he was watching was now working extremely hard, expanding its body to its maximum, desperately engaging in close combat with the Wind ่.
Due to having three claws, and the fact that the Wind ่ had been injured by Lin Shiming, it was instead scratched and bleeding by the Flood Dragon he was watching.
"You are a Cultivator from Nine Dragon Island!" Blood light condensed in the Wind ่'s eyes, as if it was extremely angry.
It roared repeatedly, and the other Wind ่ beside it also roared again.
It seemed that Cultivators from Nine Dragon Island were a taboo for the Jiaolong Clan.
"What Cultivator from Nine Dragon Island? This Flood Dragon smells your fragrance. Let me take a bite, and I'll let you live two more days!"
"This Flood Dragon will definitely eat that big black snake first, don't worry!" The Flood Dragon he was watching attacked desperately. All these Flood Dragons were food in its eyes.
"Roar, you can definitely have two meals!"
At this moment, the Flood Dragon he was watching was so excited it was talking nonsense!
Upon hearing this, the Wind ่ also roared repeatedly, countless storms raged, and two wind swords occasionally flew out from its mouth, but they collided with the Sky Whale Spear of the Flood Dragon he was watching, completely unable to gain the upper hand.
And Golden Wings and Hong Mao (Red Fur), one ice-attributed and one fire-attributed, also prevented that Wind ่ from breaking through.
Especially Hong Mao (Red Fur), who was holding the Heavenly Demon Staff. At this moment, it couldn't defeat the Flood Dragon he was watching, nor Golden Wings.
Even the Thunder Child (Thunder Boy) in the grotto-heaven, it somewhat feared. At this moment, it actually felt that fighting the Wind ่ was a good idea.
It liked group fights!
While the three beasts resisted the Wind ่, Lin Shiming also closed in again.
In his hand, the Star Bead was released to its maximum, fiercely striking the Poison Flood Dragon!
This punch landed on its vital spot, causing the Poison Flood Dragon's body to indent once again, just like last time. The entire Flood Dragon felt dizzy, and many of its Jiao bones fractured.
Lin Shiming easily severed its Jiao head with the Purple Cloud Twin Swords, and then it was absorbed into the Soul Suppressing Tower.
With the death of the Poison Flood Dragon, the two Wind ่s were terrified.
They roared repeatedly, their hearts filled with fear.
A Peak Fourth Stage Flood Dragon was directly smashed to death.
Naturally, they had to escape.
Hong Mao (Red Fur) and Golden Wings couldn't hold them back at all. Instead, at this moment, seeing food within reach, the Flood Dragon he was watching released the spiritual light of its three claws and two horns to the extreme.
It spat out venom like a large lake.
A portion of the Wind ่'s Jiao fin was contaminated, instantly turning black, its azure spiritual light disappearing, and its speed greatly reduced!
Seeing this, Lin Shiming also went towards the Wind ่ entangled by the Flood Dragon he was watching.
Both the Illusory Spirit Vine and the Five Metal Beast Ring in his hand went towards the Wind ่.
Finally, the Great Evolution Sword Style was unleashed again, killing the Wind ่.
The remaining Wind ่, however, transformed into an azure light and disappeared.
Lin Shiming also put away the corpses of the two Flood Dragons and did not pursue further.
His original plan was to hang all three Flood Dragons on Nine Peaks Island if he could keep them. Now, it seemed he only needed to set up and wait on Nine Peaks Island.
Those Flood Dragons would definitely come. The effect of exposing the Flood Dragon he was watching was clearly excellent.
Not only did he keep an extra Wind ่, but he also achieved the desired effect.
However, he was still forced to use the Star Bead once, and Lin Shiming's hand injury would require several days of recovery.
"Thousand Wood Daoist's Divine Might! We're here to help you!"
The group of Cultivators from Tianxiang Island arrived late, only to see Lin Shiming, accompanied by Hong Mao (Red Fur) and Golden Wings, slaughtering a large number of Yao Beasts, including Purple Mansion and Third Stage Yao Beasts.
Lin Shijie also followed with his sword, beginning to clear out the Yao Beasts on the island.
Of the three Flood Dragons, two were killed, and one was driven away. The remaining ones naturally had no intention of fighting further.
The Yao Race also had no Formation and thus no reliance on Formation for protection.
On the Human Race side, even though Lin Shiming had already put away the Poison Flood Dragon, there were still seven Purple Mansion combatants.
They instantly began to counterattack the Yao Beasts fiercely. Especially Lin Shiming, with one hand behind his back and the other wielding a sword, like an unparalleled Sword Immortal from the heavens, no Fourth Stage Great Demon could withstand more than a few sword strikes from him.
Thousand Wood Daoist's Divine Might was completely unleashed.
The Purple Mansion Great Demons either fled or were annihilated. Lin Shiming also stopped, standing in the Void Realm, continuously recovering his true essence.
At this moment, he continued to watch the Lin Family Cultivators and the Cultivators from Tianxiang Island.
Every Cultivator fought with extreme bravery, fiercely attacking the losing Yao Beasts. No one was better at it than them, especially those few Purple Mansion Cultivators, each smiling from ear to ear. The remaining Fourth Stage Low Grade Yao Beasts were not strong and had been injured by Lin Shiming's Flood Dragon he was watching and Golden Wings.
Lin Shijie also killed several Fourth Stage Low Grade giant pythons, his face also full of smiles.
In his opinion, Fourth Stage giant pythons were already good enough.
But what he didn't know was that before they arrived, Lin Shiming had killed two Flood Dragons!
This time, Nine Peaks Island achieved a great victory, with over twenty Fourth Stage Great Demons killed.
When everyone returned to Nine Peaks Island, they were all laden with rewards. The siege of Yao Beasts on Nine Peaks Island was also lifted, and even low-level Cultivators felt that Nine Peaks Island could be defended again.
However, the consumption of spirit talismans, Magical Artifacts, and Magic Treasures was enormous.
So many Cultivators and Loose Cultivators began to buy heavily in the market.
At this moment, most other families had already withdrawn, but only the Lin Family still had alchemy, artifact refining, and talisman shops arranged.
This once again boosted the Lin Family's business.
Although these artifact refining Materials were not as valuable as before, their price would not be low when they were later transformed into Magical Artifacts.
They could also be used for the Lin Family's Artifact Refiners to practice their artifact refining techniques.
And precious Yao Beast Materials were the best Materials for the Lin Family's Bloodline Ancestral Return Secret Method.
This brought the Lin Family a considerable harvest.
In the bustling center, the Lin Family's dedicated Council Great Hall in the very center of Nine Peaks City.
Lin Shiming still demanded that all Cultivators prepare to retreat.
This scene made several Purple Mansion Cultivators hesitate. In their view, they had already cleared the fields once before, and this time, they had routed the Yao Beasts, which should be enough to hold for several years.
Although returning to Nine Peaks Island was much safer, it was not as convenient to kill Yao Beasts on Nine Peaks Island.
Moreover, they still had some market stalls and shops here.
"Tomorrow morning, the Nine Peaks Formation will be withdrawn. Whether you leave or not is up to you!" Lin Shiming said coldly and directly left.
He had no intention of explaining, believing that these Cultivators would understand before long.
The escaped Wind ่ would definitely summon a large number of Fourth Stage Flood Dragons.
As for those low-level Yao Beasts, their presence or absence would not prevent them from annihilating Nine Peaks Island.
This world has never relied on numbers.
Lin Shijie and Lei Xuan, however, made urgent arrangements, and all business in the market ceased before evening.
Cultivators began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
The direction of evacuation was Tianxiang Island. The Lin Family's Shuangmu Island had already taken many Cultivators to Tianliu Island. If these Cultivators also went to Tianliu Island,
Then Real Person Hongye would have an opinion.
And at this very moment, Lin Shijin suddenly requested an audience.
Lin Shiming was slightly taken aback but nodded.
After many years, Lin Shijin had now reached the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, wearing Lin Family attire, his body appearing slightly thin.
However, his eyes were more spirited.
"Seventh Brother!" Lin Shijin bowed respectfully.
"In the Talisman Refining Hall, there is a Loose Cultivator Talisman Refiner who is willing to join our Lin Family!"
"He is a Third Stage High Grade Talisman Refiner, at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, with Three Spiritual Roots, and has always lived on Tianxiang Island. These years, he has been extremely helpful to my talisman refining skills. Shijin even suspects that he might have the strength of a Fourth Stage Talisman Refiner, but his Cultivation Realm hasn't reached it yet!" Lin Shijin explained.
"Alright, you can decide on this matter. Take him to Tianxiang Island. At that time, he will pass the family jade book, and I will also assess him with a Soul Questioning Talisman!"
Lin Shiming nodded, feeling somewhat relieved. The Talisman Refining Hall, Alchemy Hall, and Weapon Crafting Hall established ten years ago finally had meaning.
Over ten years, the Lin Family had contacted all the Loose Cultivator Alchemists, Talisman Refiners, and Artifact Refiners on Tianxiang Island.
These Cultivators, in normal times, lived comfortably as Loose Cultivators, but during a beast tide like this, if they didn't have strong backing, they were destined to be cannon fodder.
At that time, those families and Sects wouldn't care what skills you possessed!
Coupled with the terrifying combat power he displayed yesterday, such actions by those Cultivators were normal.
Lin Shiming also asked about the situation in the Alchemy Hall and Weapon Crafting Hall. Many Loose Cultivators had also pledged allegiance!
After these Loose Cultivators pledged allegiance, they would naturally guide the Lin Family Cultivators within the Lin Family.
And while everyone was discussing, Lin Shiming suddenly felt a large number of Divine Senses beginning to wander outside!
Those Flood Dragon Great Demons had arrived...
