Chapter 701 - 519: This Child Must Not Be Kept (Part 2)

"Turn!"

"Broadside!"

"Fire!"

The spiritual power cannon on the divine ship finally began to retaliate, densely packed spiritual light beams filled the sky. The enemy refused to be outdone, the two fleets tangled with each other, and the rumbling artillery left large holes on each other's ship hulls, with the anguished screams of cultivators occasionally echoing in the sky.

After all, the firepower of the Void-Soaring and Distant-Guarding Divine Ship was stronger. Under concentrated fire, an enemy ship was engulfed in flames, along with the cultivators who failed to escape, plummeting into the Cold River.

On the Golden Core battlefield, Master Xuan Jing scanned his divine sense here and immediately cursed out loud.

The cultivators of the Yunshan Sect were unexpectedly brave and had an overwhelming advantage on the local battlefield. Previously, it was thought that Yunshan Sect only had Lu Qian, Wu Yan, Wang Yu, and two Golden Core cultivators worthy of attention, but now it seems that the other Foundation Establishment Feather Scholars are also unusually formidable and cannot be underestimated.

It can't go on like this. If this loose formation continues, their numerical advantage cannot be leveraged, and losses will increase even further!

Damn it, they've fought to this extent, could it be that Guh Niqiang truly hasn't come? The previous deployment, instead, accrued battle merits for Yunshan Sect?!

Thinking of this, Master Xuan Jing felt a heavy pressure on his chest, furious and anxious. He flashed his figure, wanting to rush directly to the divine ship with the cover from Master Yaoming, but was blocked by another Fourfold Transformation from Lu Qian. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and shout out an order.

"All units, charge!"

With the order given, the remaining dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators and over twenty floating battleships from Junle County immediately gathered to encircle, moving towards the Yunshan Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivators and six divine ships.

Simultaneously, he gave Master Yaoming a glance, and the Golden Core in his Dantian shone brightly. As he raised his palm, the surrounding night sky, originally illuminated by moonlight and starlight, was instantly pitch black, unseeable by the eye.

A formidable wave spread out, and Lu Qian's face immediately turned solemn. It was a divine technique!

Moreover, it was a range divine technique. Coupled with Master Xuan Jing's fully opened divine sense, his immature Wind Shadow Cloud Body could not evade.

At the same time, Master Yaoming again unleashed the Dragon Sparrow Fire Ring. Amid the cries of the Fire Dragon and Vermilion Bird, he raised his Sword Pointing, and the burst of high temperatures instantly tore through the Array Realm of the Five Elements Grand Array.

Lu Qian's body turned scorching hot, and the Jade Flood Dragon let out an "umph," trying to retreat, but was spurred forward by Lu Qian's Reversed Scale Blood Seal.

Using the seal's sensing, without words, the Jade Flood Dragon understood Lu Qian's intention. It gritted its teeth, roared, and soared up.

A bright, dazzling thunder light began to emerge from the long dragon tail, seemingly slow yet swiftly, transmitting along the smooth as jade scale armor, segment by segment, until the forty-zhang-long dragon body lit up in sequence, ultimately converging all lightning at the single spiral horn!

In an instant, thunder roared, white light flashed, tearing through the autumn night!

Divine Power: White Dragon Divine Thunder!

The powerful and swift flood dragon formed by the pale lightning pierced through the Fire Dragon and Vermilion Bird between flashes, emerging amidst their mournful dissipation, just to confront a golden bright fireball shot by Master Yaoming.

Divine Power: Nanming Li Fire!

This fireball was merely the size of a human head, yet its light radiated out, twisting and exploding, with a nimble Vermilion Bird circling and flying within, crying loudly, as if a fierce sun was rising into the night sky.

White Dragon Divine Thunder and Nanming Li Fire suddenly collided at one point, the dazzling light tore through the night sky, for a fleeting moment, the thunder light and blazing flames contended, and the air twisted.

Then the light constricted, then erupted again!

After a moment of silence, the rumbling giant sound caused the structures on Cold River Beach to tremble, and waves over ten zhang high rose on the water's surface!

The horrifying airwave spread outward, the flame entwined with thunder, rolling like a storm.

Taking advantage of this moment of obscuration, divine sense moved in Lu Qian's Sea of Consciousness, a flash of purple lightning in his eyes, and the eerily twisting Sealing and Forbidden Talisman shot out towards Master Xuan Jing.

Master Xuan Jing was fully focused on gathering his divine technique, with increasing waves around him, facing the flash-like strike of the Sealing and Forbidden Talisman, he was unable to dodge.

However, as the divine talisman aimed at his brow, he suddenly smirked coldly.

This previously omnipotent bizarre talisman unexpectedly struck an invisible barrier, being bounced away forcibly, and ripples spread widely in the air, accompanied by a ghostly bell chime.

Lu Qian's heart sank. After his information was leaked, his enemies indeed found a way to defend against this move!

He saw a flash of pure light around Master Xuan Jing, and a small, exquisite transparent treasure bell quietly suspended above him, its sound ghostly, the Sealing and Forbidden Talisman unable to approach.

"This is my sect's Secret Treasure, the Soul-Cleansing Bell," Master Xuan Jing said in a deep voice, "specifically to defend against spiritual sense attacks. No matter how uncanny your tactics are, if they cannot reach me, they are useless."

His voice suddenly harshened: "Take my divine technique!"

As soon as his words fell, there was another rumbling sound beside him. It turned out, after the contention between flame and thunder, Master Yaoming's Nanming Li Fire ultimately still prevailed by a thin margin, swallowing up the White Dragon Divine Thunder, leaving only a small mass of flames shooting toward Lu Qian and the Jade Flood Dragon.

Meanwhile, Master Xuan Jing also struck with a palm.

Amidst the electrical flashes, Lu Qian urged the Reversed Scale Blood Seal. Feeling his intent, the nearly spiritually exhausted Jade Flood Dragon rejoiced, shrank its body, and in the blink of an eye transformed from a forty-zhang dragon to chopstick size, snuggling into Lu Qian's embrace.

At the same time, he executed one last Array Transformation.

In the next instant, as the divine technique hit, deep darkness enveloped Lu Qian.
