Humanity’s Great Sage

For Lu Ye, the greatest benefit of this formation was that it could reduce his own consumption.

But for Xia He and the other Dao Harmonization cultivators stationed at the formation eyes, it was more than that. The offensive they were currently unleashing was no less powerful than Lu Ye's, but because of the different treasures at the formation eyes, the forms they manifested were also different.

This meant that the formation could greatly enhance their strength, temporarily elevating them to the same level as Lu Ye.

However, there was also a drawback, which was the long charge-up time. After one strike, it often took more than ten breaths to complete the charge for the next attack.

Looking down from the sky, at this moment, the entire Changyun Island was under siege. The number of enemies was unknown, and at the edge of the island, the power of countless great formations was activated, with colorful rays of light shooting out continuously.

The blood sea shook, and within it, life force was constantly extinguished invisibly, obviously indicating that some unlucky fellows had been attacked and killed.

Although the enemy suffered constant losses, they showed no intention of retreating. From within the blood sea, there were also colorful rays of light continuously falling towards the protective formation of Changyun Island, causing ripples to form on the light curtain of the great formation.

This war seemed particularly fierce from the very beginning.

Such a siege was a torment for the human race in the Cage Sea, but for other foreign races, it was a carnival. The human race had prepared for this siege for a hundred years, but hadn't these foreign races been waiting for a hundred years as well?

They would often send out the most elite cultivators from their clans, and bring out the best lineup, just to capture more sacrificial materials in this siege.

Although it was Lu Ye's first time participating in such a battle, he keenly noticed, after observing in secret, that this seemingly lively battle was actually just an appetizer.

Because the life force extinguished in the blood sea was not very strong. Lu Ye felt like they were cannon fodder, used to exhaust the strength of Changyun Island.

With such doubts in his mind, he secretly sent a voice transmission to Chu Li, who was stationed beside him, and quickly received an answer, proving that it was indeed as he had thought.

In the Source World, the situation of the human race was miserable, but it wasn't just the human race that was like this.

There were also several other races, such as the Star Spirit Race and the Ice Soul Race, whose situations were also extremely bad. Also because there were no Saints in their clans, their status in the Source World was low, and they often became slaves of other powerful races.

On normal days, these slave races suffered bullying and suppression from powerful races, and in times of war, they could be pulled out to serve as vanguards and cannon fodder.

The human race could still occupy the Cage Sea to multiply and thrive, which was allowed by many powerful races, because pigs only had value when they were fattened. But the other weak races didn't have such conditions.

Because they weren't even qualified to become sacrificial materials, their value was far less than that of the human race to those powerful races.

In the current battle, these weak races must have been drafted a lot, but it was just that the blood sea obscured the view.

The war lasted for three full days and nights.

Lu Ye didn't know how many enemies he had killed. He only knew that every time he activated the power of the formation eye, many lives would disappear in the sea of blood.

After three days of high-intensity war, not to mention the huge consumption of the Changyun Island cultivators, even the formations had many places that needed to be repaired.

The formation masters who had been waiting for a long time were running around.

On the defense line where Lu Ye was located, more than a dozen formations had almost been repaired in rotation.

After three days, the intensity of the war suddenly increased. The most obvious sign was that the attacks from the blood sea became more dense and powerful.

In these three days, no matter how the protective formation was attacked, it only rippled. But at this moment, it was flashing with light and darkness, obviously under tremendous pressure.

Moreover, there were some riots and disturbances that broke out in the city from time to time. He learned from Chu Li that they were caused by the Sea Clan sneaking into the city through underground undercurrents.

However, Changyun Island had long been prepared for this, so there would basically be no major problems.

After another half day, as a ball of purple light diffused from the blood sea, and attached to the protective formation like a mist, Chu Li's expression suddenly changed.

The most worrying thing had still happened.

Because the defense of this section of the defense line had been actively opened up before, this was the weakest point compared to other locations of the great formation.

Just like an injury, the wound would heal, but it would still leave a scar.

Chu Li couldn't sit still any longer. He went to the weak point alone, waving the Dao Soldier in his hand to relieve the pressure.

The effect was not obvious.

In just half an hour, the protective light curtain in this area almost showed signs of melting. Anyone could see that the protection here would be broken, it was only a matter of time.

Sure enough, after a while, a huge gap appeared in the protective light curtain. Accompanied by a sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling, a large number of figures charged out from the gap.

Chu Li stood alone, blocking in front of the gap, although he tried his best to resist, it was difficult to do anything.

Fortunately, Lu Ye and others continued to activate the power of the formation eyes, killing the enemies who rushed in one by one, but it could only relieve some of the pressure.

If this continued, this defense line would be broken.

Seeing this scene, Lu Ye immediately shouted: "Zhang Zhen, take over!"

Zhang Zhen was one of the thirty or so assistants on his side, with a middle-rank Dao Harmonization cultivation level. He was the strongest person in this formation besides him.

Although he couldn't exert the full power of the formation eye, it was better than nothing.

As he spoke, he rushed out, and in mid-air, he had already pulled out the Mountain Breaker Saber from his waist, and slashed down fiercely. When the saber light flashed, the power of space permeated.

Chu Li was in a difficult situation at this time. Although his strength was not bad, the gap in the defense line was too large, and the number of enemies who rushed in was too many. For a time, it was difficult for him to fight with both fists against four hands.

Although Lu Ye's saber didn't cause much damage, the power of space that accompanied it helped him out of the siege.

When Lu Ye arrived beside him, the pressure was greatly reduced.

Two figures, just like a few days ago, stood across the gap in the great formation. Under the light of the saber and the shadow of the sword, the invading enemies were constantly beheaded.

However, compared to the day when Chu Li actively opened the gap in the great formation in order to meet Lu Ye and Xia He, the current situation was much more serious, because the area where the great formation's light curtain was melted was much larger than the gap that day.

In this way, it would be easier for the enemy to kill into the island, and the difficulty for the formation masters to repair this gap would also be greatly increased.

"Repair the formation quickly!" Chu Li roared while killing the enemy.

Because if this gap was not repaired, it would inevitably attract more and stronger enemies to attack. Once this happened, even if he and Lu Ye were strong, it would be difficult to resist.

Fortunately, after only a moment, a large number of cultivators arrived from the left and right to support.

Changyun Island had faced sieges more than once, and Island Master Changyun was stationed in the island to dispatch manpower, so he naturally had experience in dealing with such situations.

Lu Ye finally had time to check the situation of the gap in the great formation.

As far as his eyes could see, his spirits were immediately lifted, because there were obvious signs of repairing the gap in the great formation. The size of the gap was smaller than before, and as time passed, the speed of this repair was also increasing.

As the gap became smaller, the number of enemies who rushed in became less and less. Until half an hour later, as the last enemy died on the spot, the gap in the great formation was finally completely repaired.

Those cultivators who came to support didn't stop and rushed to another direction.

In that direction, there was also a situation where the great formation was torn apart, and they needed to rush over to support.

The blood sea churned, and a burst of angry roars and curses came from within, obviously those invading enemies were annoyed that they didn't seize the opportunity.

Lu Ye turned his head and looked towards the formation group, only to see that many cultivators were pale and their breath was floating.

Just now, in order to resist the enemy, whether it was Xia He and other high-rank Dao Harmonization cultivators stationed at the formation eyes, or those assistants, they were all exerting their own strength without reservation, and they had consumed a lot in a short period of time.

Even several formations were broken…

However, there was no time to rest at all. Although the gap was repaired, the enemy's offensive didn't stop at all.

Lu Ye suddenly turned his head again and looked to the side. Chu Li was looking towards him, their eyes met, and they nodded slightly.

Chu Li was very grateful in his heart that he had a strong man like Lu Ye to help him. Otherwise, in the situation just now, he really couldn't stop him alone, and he couldn't hold on until the arrival of those reinforcements.

If that was the case, then this defense line would be completely lost. Once the enemy opened a gap for invasion here, the entire Changyun Island would be in danger.

Time passed quickly, and the pressure on Changyun Island became greater and greater.

Until a certain moment, Lu Ye and Chu Li turned their heads to look towards the left at the same time, and saw that at the adjacent defense line, the light curtain of the great formation was broken, and a large number of enemies rushed in, directly submerging the figure of a human cultivator stationed there.

"Help!" Chu Li shouted sharply.

Almost at the same time as his voice sounded, Lu Ye and him had already flashed and rushed towards that side.

Arriving at the battlefield in the blink of an eye, Lu Ye slashed out with his long saber, and the enemies in front of him were instantly showered with blood and scattered corpses.

However, he had only slashed out a few sabers when he heard a muffled groan. When he looked up, he saw that Chu Li's burly figure was flying backwards, spitting out a mouthful of blood mist in mid-air.

Following closely behind him, a Feather Clan cultivator chased relentlessly, the Dao Soldier in his hand flowing with light, and a cruel smile on his face.

Lu Ye roughly knew Chu Li's strength. This Feather Clan was able to injure him in such a short time, even under the siege, which showed his extraordinary strength.

Although Chu Li was now activating his Dao power to protect himself to respond to the enemy, there was more than just this Feather Clan enemy, and the situation was critical for a time.

Lu Ye took a step forward, suddenly came behind Chu Li, supported his body with one hand, and using his figure as a cover, slashed forward fiercely with a fierce saber. (End of this chapter)
