After the death of the two Yuanying period monsters, the monsters lost their command and started to fight on their own, attacking Jinchan Island frantically. Instead of being alleviated, the situation on Jinchan Island deteriorated further.
Master Lingxiao snorted lightly and raised his right hand. A ray of golden light flew out, which turned out to be a light golden flag. He entered a spell and the golden flag lit up with a dazzling red light. Its size suddenly increased and billowing golden flames emerged.
Three breaths later, a golden fire cloud over ten miles in size floated in the sky. The temperature suddenly rose and the void trembled slightly.
The golden fire clouds rolled and tumbled, and bean-sized golden raindrops poured down.
Surprisingly, there were not a single drop of golden rain where Han Zhangxiang and others were.
The golden raindrops fell on the ground, instantly creating a huge pit about ten feet in size. There was a hot air in the pit. The golden raindrops fell on the trees or buildings, instantly starting a raging fire.
Golden raindrops fell on the monsters, and they immediately let out sharp screams and were drowned in the golden flames. Monsters below level three were directly turned into ashes when touched by the golden raindrops. Level three monsters rolled their huge bodies non-stop when touched by the golden raindrops, trying to put out the flames, but it was of no use.
Ling Xiao used his superb alchemy skills to exchange many treasures with other Nascent Soul cultivators for the top-grade magical weapon, the Golden Flame Soul-Extinguishing Banner.
At the same time, Taoist Zi Feng, Han Chaoyang and Shen Qinghuan all took action to attack the monsters that attacked Jinchan Island.
There were bursts of huge explosions, countless limbs flew everywhere, blood dyed the sea water near Jinchan Island red, and the beach was dyed red. Some low-level monsters fell on the beach with blood dripping. They did not die immediately and let out bursts of painful cries.
After more than thirty third-order monsters were killed, the monsters seemed to realize the horror of human cultivators, and they retreated one after another, disappearing into the vast ocean.
When Han Zhangxiang saw this scene, he breathed a sigh of relief, his legs went limp, and he collapsed to the ground. This time was very dangerous and he almost lost his life.
The speed of the demon clan's counterattack was beyond everyone's expectations. Fortunately, Jiang Qingshu provided timely support.
As the sun sets, the setting sun looks like blood. The afterglow of the sunset pours down on the sea, reflecting the water in golden color. The air is filled with a strong smell of blood. Most of the Jinchan Island has been reduced to ruins and is ablaze with flames.
A large number of monster corpses either fell on the island or floated on the sea, which was very terrifying.
If Ling Xiao Zhenren hadn't come to support them, they would have been in great danger.
"Friends Chen, Liu, Sun, and Li, the rest of you go patrol the surroundings and clean up the corpses of the monsters. Friends Han and Zhao, you guys deal with the corpses of the monsters on the island."
Han Chaoyang ordered that the demon clan’s counterattack would not end so quickly, this was only the first wave.
"Yes, Senior Han."
Han Zhangxiang and others agreed in unison and each performed their duties.
Han Chaoyang looked at Master Ling Xiao and said gratefully, "Fellow Daoist Ling, I am grateful for your help this time."
"It's just a small favor. The demon tribe's counterattack won't end so quickly. The subsequent counterattacks may be even bigger. Let's discuss the subsequent countermeasures!"
Master Ling Xiao suggested.
Han Chaoyang nodded, and the four of them flew towards the conference room.
······
On Jinbang Island, Zhao Qiankun sat in a huge clam shell with a serious look.
Jiang Qingshu and more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators stood aside, reporting to Zhao Qiankun.
"Qingshu, thanks to your timely arrival, otherwise the demon tribe would have counterattacked and we would have suffered heavy losses."
Zhao Qiankun praised.
He also didn't expect the demons to counterattack so quickly, but from the current point of view, the focus of the demons' counterattack is not them.
"Master, you are too kind. I am grateful that you lent me this flying magic treasure, the Liuyun Boat. Otherwise, I would not have arrived so quickly. Now that I have completed my mission, I should return it to its original owner."
Jiang Qingshu said respectfully, and as he raised his hand, a white light flew out, and it turned out to be a flying boat shining with white light, with a miniature palace on it, and the spiritual energy was amazing. The word "Liuyun" was engraved on the boat, and it was obviously a flying spiritual treasure.
Zhao Qiankun nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and a ray of light flashed out, wrapped around the Liuyun Boat, and disappeared into his sleeves.
"By the way, tell them not to chase too far. Let's advance slowly. The demon tribe is quite powerful. We just took advantage of them."
Zhao Qiankun instructed that reinforcements had arrived and the demon tribe had retreated in large numbers.
"Yes, Master, I'll give the order right away."
Jiang Qingshu agreed readily and bowed before leaving.
······
Millions of miles away, on a remote island.
In a hidden cave, Jiao Yan was talking to Fairy Hanyue, who had an ugly look on her face.
"What? You want me to volunteer to attack the Red Dragon Island where you store your supplies? Are you trying to force me to die?"
Fairy Hanyue frowned, her face full of worry.
She was from the second echelon and came with Jiang Qingshu for support. She was chasing a fourth-level monster and was led here, where she met Jiao Yan.
"What good will your death do to me? Foolish, do you think I am so short-sighted? This is to help you achieve merit and ascend to the top. Of course, I have to put on a full show. The defense of Red Dragon Island is not weak, but I can tell you the weakness of the island protection formation. If you want to take over Red Dragon Island, you still have to pay some casualties, so that it will be realistic."
Jiao Yan said in a deep voice.
Fairy Hanyue's face was gloomy and hesitant.
She was worried that this was a trap, what if Jiao Yan wanted to use her to kill the human Yuanying! It was not impossible.
"What? You want to disobey my orders? You don't think I only have you two chess pieces!"
Jiao Yan's face suddenly turned cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Fairy Han Yue sighed lightly and said quickly: "I dare not. I will do my best to make this happen. I hope you will keep your promise."
She had no other choice now and could only hope that Jiao Yan would keep his promise.
Report to Zhao Qiankun? Zhao Qiankun would most likely use her to deal with the demon race. Traitors are not welcome anywhere.
"I'm glad you understand. By the way, there is a magic treasure in the treasure house of Chijiao Island. After you enter Chijiao Island, go to the treasure house as soon as possible. That magic treasure is prepared for you. If it weren't for this battle, that magic treasure would have been left to my descendants."
Jiao Yan remembered something and reminded.
Fairy Han Yue's eyes lit up. She remembered something and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Senior, what do you want me to do by pushing me to this position?"
"Your position and cultivation are too low, what can you do? I will help you advance to the Spiritualization Stage, it depends on whether you can fight for it. But out of caution, you have to let me plant the Forbidden Yuan Chain in your Nascent Soul."
Jiao Yan instructed that the forbidden magic chain is a special kind of restriction that can imprison the magic power of others.
Once the Forbidden Yuan Chain is planted, unless Fairy Hanyue is one realm higher than Jiao Yan, or asks a cultivator one realm higher than Jiao Yan to take action, even if Fairy Hanyue cultivates to the Spirit Transformation Stage, she will not be able to threaten Jiao Yan.
A white light flashed from Fairy Hanyue’s head, and a mini Yuanying flew out.
She had no other choice at all. If she dared to refuse, she would die.
Jiao Yan showed an expression of approval, made some hand gestures, and started muttering something.
He pinched his ten fingers together and dozens of slender red lights flew out, transforming into light red chains that struck towards the mini Nascent Soul.
A dozen red chains entangled the mini Yuanying, wrapping it like a rice dumpling.
With a pinch of Jiao Yan's magic formula, the red chain suddenly lit up and then disappeared.
The mini Nascent Soul let out a shrill scream, and Fairy Hanyue's body began to tremble and her face turned pale.
With a flash of inspiration, the mini Nascent Soul flew back into the body of Fairy Hanyue.
"These are the corpses of two fourth-level monsters. You take them back and report. Also, there are the weaknesses of the Red Dragon Island's protective formation. I am the only one who knows your identities. The people below don't know, so they won't be polite to you, and you don't need to be polite to them. Kill them when you should. Remember, break the restriction of the treasury as soon as possible, otherwise the spiritual treasure will be someone else's."
Jiao Yan instructed with a serious expression, took out a red storage ring and handed it to Fairy Hanyue.
Chijiao Island is an important stronghold of the demon clan. It is located in the rear of the demon clan, has tight defenses, and stores a large amount of resources for cultivating immortals. The demon clan has more than a dozen strongholds like Chijiao Island.
Fairy Hanyue agreed repeatedly. She was thinking about how to get Zhao Qiankun to agree to let her lead people to attack Chijiao Island.
"Well, it's getting late, you should go back quickly! Otherwise they will get suspicious."
After Jiao Yan finished speaking, he flicked his finger and a red light flew out, piercing Fairy Hanyue's left shoulder, causing blood to flow continuously.
Since we're acting, we'll do it all.
Fairy Hanyue endured the severe pain and turned into a ray of light and left the cave.
"What our ancestors couldn't do, I can do. The entire outer sea belongs to our demon race."
Jiao Yan sneered, pinched his fingers, and disappeared into a tiny spark of fire.
······
In the meeting hall of Jinchan Island, Han Chaoyang, Taoist Zifeng, and Shen Qinghuan sat in the main seats, while Han Zhangxiang and more than fifty other Jindan cultivators sat on both sides, their expressions solemn.
After the reinforcements arrived, their pressure was greatly reduced and they had a lot more manpower.
"According to Senior Zhao's orders, we have to advance slowly. Now that we have a lot more manpower, we have discussed and are ready to seize another 17 islands, connect them together, and expand the territory we control."
Han Chaoyang said in a deep voice.
"Friend Han and the other members of the first echelon have made great contributions. You do not need to participate in the battle. Stay and guard the seven islands that have been controlled. The others will be responsible for capturing the seventeen islands."
Shen Qinghuan said that Han Zhangxiang and other members of the first echelon had suffered heavy losses and made great contributions.
Han Zhangxiang and other monks in the first echelon breathed a sigh of relief and agreed.
"Friend Han, we have a greater demand for elixirs. Supplies are in short supply. Please work hard and lead the other three alchemists to refine a batch of healing elixirs as soon as possible."
Han Chaoyang looked at Han Benfu and said with a pleasant expression.
Jiang Qingshu brought a batch of resources for cultivating immortals, but there were not enough pills to share. There were also quite a few demon pills and spiritual medicines. The alchemist had to refine the demon pills and spiritual medicines into pills and then distribute them.
"Yes, Senior Han."
Han Benfu agreed immediately. She didn't have to fight with monsters and could stay in the back to make pills with peace of mind. This was what many cultivators dreamed of, and it would also help Han Benfu improve her alchemy skills.
In addition to Han Benfu, there are three third-level alchemists who are also responsible for making pills, but their alchemy skills are not as good as Han Benfu's.
"Okay, Mr. Han, you can leave now. The rest of you stay and discuss the details of seizing the seventeen islands."
Han Chaoyang waved his hand and asked Han Zhangxiang and others to leave.
Han Zhangxiang and others responded, bowed and left.
After returning to their residence, Han Zhangxiang and four others gathered in a green stone pavilion. Han Changwu's face looked a little pale.
"Changwu, Changying, Benyong, are you feeling better?"
Han Zhangxiang's face was full of concern.
