I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 316 Backbone (Bonus Chapter for 1500 June Tickets)

Amidst the billowing black mist, a white figure tore through the sky. Hua Gu transformed into a white crane, flapping its wings and soaring over the waves of demonic tide. The crane's cry echoed through the heavens, and ice crystals bloomed all around its body, like ancient frost pouring down.

The power of the Ice Phoenix erupted, freezing the ten-mile stretch of sea instantly. The monster's ferocious body solidified in the towering waves, turning into ice sculptures.

Red Glass arrived on all fours, treading on pure white flames. Its fiery claws tore through the air, ice sculptures shattered, and the pure fire of the Candle Moth burned the sky and boiled the sea. The demon's body was reduced to ashes in the interplay of ice and fire.

Hua Gu and Hong Li worked together seamlessly, overwhelming everyone present and leaving everyone in awe.

Nevertheless, the sheer number of demons in the demonic tide was overwhelming. The spirits and war puppets, outnumbered, began to suffer injuries and retreats one after another, their cries of agony echoing across the land.

Jiang Yi's gaze sharpened, and she activated the Azure Emperor's Longevity Scripture to its fullest extent.

Spring rain!

A shower of spiritual rain fell from the sky, bringing a surge of life. All the wounds of the demons were visibly healed, and the demonic energy that had invaded their bodies turned into smoke and dissipated. The listless aura surged again.

Xiao Qinghuang of the Liujing Sect held his jade flute to his lips, and the sound waves rolled out, drawing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and infusing the demons with surging spiritual power.

All the demon tamers chanted incantations and poured their own vital energy into their respective demon spirits to help them fight against the monsters.

The great array shimmered with light, protecting everyone.

Round after round of crossbow bolts were fired, the explosions were deafening, and the war puppets and the demon spirits were eventually suppressed by the demonic tide and forced onto the rocky beach.

As Shang Shixu played his flute, a large number of silver mist insects transformed into a colossal blade that cleaved through the demonic tide.

Shen Puning stood inside the formation, wielding his brush and ink to paint one after another armored warrior wielding double axes, assisting everyone in slaying the demon.

Baozhu and Qitian's stone-skinned rhinoceros clashed back and forth on the rocky beach, crushing the disgusting monster under their feet.

"Disgusting wretch, die!"

Qi Tian, ​​carrying a bag full of Fire Thunder Pearls, stood inside the formation and threw them out as if they were free, blasting the demons to pieces.

With the Windless Banner on his back, a wind array formed around him, and wherever it passed, all the demons were shredded into mincemeat by the gale.

With the help of the pack of wolves, Cang Qingyue leaped and dodged through the demonic tide, joining the wolves in attacking the demons that were trying to rush onto the island.

Xiao Jue opened the fan-shaped sword box beneath his feet, and more than a dozen flying swords intertwined to form a sword curtain, each sword representing a demon based on his previous understanding of the demon's weaknesses.

Just as everyone was being surrounded by more and more monsters, an unusually large war puppet crashed into the monster horde like a bull.

"What are you standing there for? Get out of here!"

While controlling the battle puppet that resembled a giant garbage dump, Chu Qianji shouted to the Cangling Sect members, thinking to himself that they were just hot-blooded young men who always rushed to the front, and didn't even realize they were surrounded.

Learn from Zhuang Chengxuan, who always hides behind the rocks and never shows his face.

Behind her, Jiang Yi, who was maintaining the spring rain, suddenly shuddered, her head throbbing with pain, and thousands of distorted whispers echoed in her ears.

She couldn't hear or understand these sounds before, but now, she instantly understood their meaning.

"Back away!!!"

Jiang Yi grabbed Shang Shixu and Xiao Qinghuang with her left and right hands respectively, and activated her Xuanqi Escape Technique with all her might.

The three figures were still standing in the same spot when the ground beneath their feet suddenly exploded, and demonic energy burst forth like a black dragon breaking through the earth, rushing into the island.

Bai Shengjie, another member of the Yuqing Sect who was responsible for the treatment, was instantly swallowed by the demonic energy because he didn't have time to react. The demonic energy seemed to be alive, turning into a swarm of snakes that coiled around Bai Shengjie's body.

Bai Shengjie's eyes flashed, and green miasma burst forth from his body, forcefully repelling the demonic energy. Jiang Yi lashed out with her green vine whip, and Bai Shengjie caught it, being pulled away from the deep pit by Jiang Yi.

A chilling gnawing sound came from deep within the earth's veins, as if billions of demonic insects were tearing at the island's foundation.

The light barrier of the island-protecting formation was like shattered glass, with cracks instantly spreading across the entire sky.

The monsters in the demonic tide possess a collective consciousness and are commanded by the demon race. These conscious demons are unpredictable in form and difficult to find as they hide beneath the demonic tide. If these demons who command the demonic tide cannot be eliminated, the demonic tide will be extremely troublesome.

Just like now, wave after wave of demonic tides are attacking White Coral Island head-on, attracting everyone's attention, but some demons are also sneaking under the island, corroding its foundation and tearing the defenses apart from the core of the formation.

As a large amount of demonic energy poured into the island, the great formation trembled and was momentarily distracted by the fierce battle among the cultivators at the front.

"Junior brother!"

Amidst a piercing scream, a young cultivator from the Liujing Sect was pierced through the chest by a scarlet tentacle, and a bloody hole the size of a bowl exploded in his dantian.

He looked down in disbelief and saw his flesh and internal organs being greedily devoured by the dense suckers on the tentacles.

Ouch——

The silver wolves' mournful howls echoed across the battlefield. Cang Qingyue watched helplessly as two gray wolves were engulfed by the demonic tide. The sticky black fluid, like living things, seeped into their seven orifices along their fur. In the blink of an eye, their majestic wolf bodies twisted into deformed lumps of flesh, becoming part of the demons. "I'll kill you!"

Cang Qingyue suppressed her tears and brandished her hunting knife, charging madly into the horde of demons. She was completely unaware that black veins were beginning to appear on her skin, and that demonic thoughts had already invaded her body.

"Azure Moon!"

A clear sound accompanied the falling of bamboo leaves from above Cang Qingyue's head. She shuddered as Jiang Yi used his Mind Cleansing Technique to expel the demonic energy and demonic thoughts from her body.

"Don't be stunned!"

Shen Puning smashed the demon in front of Cang Qingyue with a punch, shielded Cang Qingyue from the foul-smelling slime with her body, and pulled the dazed Cang Qingyue to a safe place. The alpha wolf and the pack spontaneously protected the two of them.

More and more people and demons are getting injured, and young cultivators are being corrupted by demonic thoughts. Only Jiang Yi's Mind-Cleansing Technique can save them from this situation.

Qingxin is specifically designed to relieve negative states and is more effective than Chunyu.

Jiang Yi's hand, forming hand seals, left afterimages as she unleashed spell after spell without pause.

Xiao Qinghuang and Bai Shengjie were greatly impressed by this, and they also did their best to use healing and restorative spells to save everyone, allowing Jiang Yi to concentrate on dealing with the demonic invasion.

click!
The Nine Palaces Spirit Locking Array finally gave way, and the spirit stones at the array's core shattered one after another. The Myriad Manifestations Disc in Yan Kongqing's hand trembled violently, and the backlash caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

The formation has been broken!
"All war golems, stand in front!"

Mo Ling shouted, ordering the war puppets to buy time for the demons and cultivators to retreat to the island. Hua Gu and Hong Li were still fighting on the front line, while Xin Wushuang, high above, fired all the Wind Arrows he had accumulated in his Wind Bag to block the demon tide.

But the demonic tide surged in like a burst dam, instantly scattering the war puppet army. Qi Tian's stone-skinned rhinoceros was torn in the throat by the demon's claws while trying to save him. Bao Zhu tried to help, but Qi Tian held her tightly by the edge of his armor, preventing her from going. It was too late!
"Fuck your mother!"

Qi Tian cursed, wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and retreated with Baozhu.

The corpses of the cultivators who had just died convulsed and rose to their feet after being invaded by demonic energy. Their former comrades' faces were covered with purplish-black lines, and they questioned their retreating fellow disciples with ferocious and hateful expressions.

"Why...why didn't you save me..."

"Cowards...they're all cowards..."

The young male and female cultivators had never seen such a scene before. The guilt and shock they felt were amplified under such pressure, and their legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground. The demonic thoughts eroded them even more severely, and even Jiang Yi's Mind Cleansing Technique could not stop their demonization.

"sorry Sorry……"

The monsters are attacking from both inside and outside, the situation is chaotic, and morale has plummeted.

Just then, five copper coins shot through the air, drawing five dazzling streaks of light in the void. They intertwined in mid-air to form a giant net that blotted out the sky. The Five Elements Formation landed with a bang, protecting everyone in a small area.

The first few demons charged into the array wall and were instantly shredded into mincemeat by the power of the five elements!

Jiang Yi sat cross-legged at the center of the formation, pouring out his true essence to maintain the Five Elements Copper Coin Formation, while placing the Floating Life Zither across his lap and playing a tune called "Lament of the Wind".

The moment the first note rang out, the sound wave struck everyone's heart like an invisible giant hammer. The tragic scene of those who died in battle, the wailing of the devoured demon spirits, and the fear of being on the verge of despair were all overturned by this heavy note!
After the initial grief, the music suddenly quickened, and the raging waves of "The Raging Waves" followed.

In the howling wind, Jiang Yi lowered her eyes and played the zither, her face expressionless and her heart calm, yet she controlled everyone's emotions with her fingertips.

Xiao Qinghuang, who understood music, trembled violently. The sorrow and rage in the music blended perfectly, as if boiling oil had been poured into everyone's hearts, causing every pore of their bodies to tremble violently and instantly igniting a surge of anger.

Suddenly, the cultivators in the formation found that their hands were no longer trembling, their legs were no longer weak, and something in their chests was burning fiercely under the stimulation of the zither music, burning their eyes and making their throats taste sweet.

Demonic thoughts? They're nothing!

"Damn it!" Qi Tian wiped his face, his palms covered in blood and tears.

"Fight them!" Feng Wuhen's battle flag suddenly burst into flames of blue.

Xiao Jue pressed the sword box to the ground. "Even if I am not a true sword cultivator, I would rather fight to the death than retreat today."

"Awooo—" Cang Qingyue howled in unison with the wolves, tears streaming down her face.

Even the most timid Zhuang Chengxuan raised the Fiery Golden Rooster with red eyes, shouting, "Fight them! Fight them!"

Xiao Qinghuang gripped the jade flute tightly. Jiang Yi was using the sound of the flute as a whip to lash out the resentment and fighting spirit deep in everyone's souls!
As expected of Jiang Yi, who was once the number one swordsman in Beixuan, he was regarded as the backbone of the Xuan Ying Sword Sect.

Even if she were no longer a sword cultivator, she would still be the backbone of all of them, giving them the confidence that as long as she was there, she could turn the tide of everything!
"Kill out!"

The group rallied, broke out of the formation, and charged towards the demonic tide once more.

At the same time, Jiang Yi no longer resisted the demon 'Nightmare's' corruption of her. Instead, she used her collective consciousness with the demon tide to begin to sense the commander hidden in the demon tide!
