Boom~~
At this moment, the sea around the island began to surge violently, as if some giant beast was awakening in the deep sea. The seawater churned madly, forming massive whirlpools, and the water within a hundred-mile radius started boiling, steam rising and obscuring half of the sky.
"Boom!" With a thunderous sound, it was as though heaven and earth collapsed. Five giant whales, each a hundred feet long, broke through the water, their enormous bodies blocking the sky and sun, the seawater cascading down like waterfalls wherever they passed. Their scales shimmered with a deep blue light, each one as large as a millstone, incredibly hard; with a gentle sweep of their massive tail fins, they could raise waves dozens of feet high.
The five Tier Four whale demons roared in unison, their sound waves spreading as tangible force, shattering the clouds in the sky, causing the ground to tremble violently, and the rocks on the island to crack and tumble.
Their gazes were icy, surrounded by surging Water Spiritual Power, each exuding an imposing aura, as if they could raise furious waves and destroy everything at any moment.
With their movements, the seawater seemed to be summoned, instantly transforming into countless water blades and water dragons, swirling and howling in the sky. The entire world was shrouded in this terrifying power, so oppressive that it felt like the end of the world was about to descend.
"Whale Giants, it’s actually you whale demons acting?!"
The four Nascent Soul cultivators saw the appearance of these five whale demons, their pupils contracting involuntarily, great waves surging in their hearts.
How could they not know who their calculating enemies were?
Turns out it was the Nascent Soul cultivators of the whale demon race.
To be honest, this race is formidable in the Black Dragon Sea Region, classified as a Tier Four race, second only to the Jiao Dragon race.
If they could produce Divinity Transformation beings, then they would be a Divinity Transformation race.
Even now, as a Tier Four race, their Nascent Soul cultivators number over several dozen.
So one can imagine the terror of the whale demon race.
They have fought countless times with this race before, mostly resulting in defeats.
"Haha, foolish humans, you finally fell into the trap."
"This large Spirit Stone ore vein was discovered by our whale demon race first."
"And we purposely leaked the information, drawing you human cultivators in."
"Never expected you would foolishly come here, indeed heaven is aiding us."
"Don’t think only your Human Race can use schemes and deceit."
"When it comes to strategy, we’re on par with you humans."
The Whale Giant said smugly.
All of this was a plot by the whale demon race, aimed at attracting a large number of human cultivators.
Then they would detonate this Spirit Stone ore vein, heavily injuring the Nascent Soul of the Human Race.
For them, each Nascent Soul from the Human Race is a thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine, containing vast energy.
If they could consume one, their cultivation would advance rapidly.
But now, there are four human cultivators here; if they can consume them all, their cultivation will surely rise to Tier Four Late Stage, and Tier Five would not be unimaginable.
"Whale Giants, don’t be too complacent."
"You think killing us is that easy."
"Even if we die, you won’t come out unscathed."
Wei Hanquan and other Nascent Soul cultivators looked extremely grim.
They could feel the fierce aura of the opponents, fearing a bleak fate.
But even so, they wouldn’t let these Tier Four whale demons succeed.
Even in death, they would drag some down with them.
"Foolish human cultivators."
"You can struggle as much as you like, but we’ve prepared thoroughly this time."
"This time, escape is impossible for you."
The Whale Giant said smugly.
"It’s over, this time completely over, never thought we’d be caught in a whale demon’s plot."
"Alas, our greed blinded us to the benefits of a large Spirit Stone ore vein."
"Now what can be done, four Tier Four Early Stage, one Tier Four Middle Stage demon cultivators, not something we can withstand."
"Don’t worry, I have a Tier Four defense array, the Celestial Spirit Guard Array, which should hold them off for a while."
"Fellow Daoist Ge, you truly are a Tier Four Array Cultivator, we rely on you; with array defense, we’ll have time to heal our injuries."
Many Nascent Soul cultivators discussed fervently, quickly formulating a plan in just a few words.
Boom~~
Array Cultivator Ge Hanrong immediately acted, taking out the Tier Four array plate from his body, engraved with ancient runes, its dark golden lines flowing like veins.
These array plates scattered around, pulling out silver-white Spiritual Silk Threads between them, weaving them into a giant light net in the air, tightly covering a hundred-kilometer radius.
When the array was activated, the light net rippled like water, gradually forming into a solid Shield of Light, its surface flowing with dense starlight, like countless miniature stars moving across the shield.
Whenever it was attacked, the Shield of Light would emit layers of glows, evenly dispersing the impact, while the crystal cores shone brightly, quickly absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to repair the damaged parts.
This huge Defense Barrier enveloped all directions, forming a solid barrier defense.
"They actually have such tactics?"
"But you’re heavily injured, how long can you hold out?"
"Once the grand array shatters, you will surely perish."
Seeing this, the Whale Giant smirked disdainfully.
Having dealt with human cultivators for so many years, they knew the tactics of human cultivators all too well.
