Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 721: Chapter 62: Crisis at Jixing Island, Timely Arrival!

However, they ultimately underestimated the strength of this horde of Demon Beasts!

In just a moment, the Demon Race army majestically arrived near Jixing Island.

”Your Highness, the Human Race Cultivators on Jixing Island have already activated the Mountain Protection Array. How should we proceed? Please give your command!”

A slightly overweight middle-aged man with two greenish-brown antennae on his head bowed in salute as he spoke.

The young man nodded, formed a gesture with his hands, and pointed at himself,

a glimmer flashed through his eyes,

clearly using some sort of Pupil Technique, before he looked towards Jixing Island ahead.

”A Tier Four Middle-Grade Array!”

The young man visibly sighed in relief.

With their current strength, breaking a Tier Four Middle-Grade Array wasn’t much of a problem,

it was only a matter of time.

Then gathering his demonic power, the light in his eyes subsided, returning to normal, and he spoke:

”Pass down the order to rest for a day; we attack officially tomorrow!”

Even though they had numerical superiority, several times that of the cultivators on Jixing Island,

they had traveled for nearly a month, their spirits were extremely fatigued, and they had consumed a lot of demonic power,

while Jixing Island was surrounded by them, like a turtle in a jar, naturally there was no rush.

”Yes!”

The middle-aged man nodded, complimenting:

”The soldiers will surely praise your Highness for your consideration of your subordinates!”

Immediately, the middle-aged man left to pass on the young man’s orders, and for a while, all the Demon Beast army burst into joyous cheers.

...

Jixing Island,

True Monarch Profound Time and Master Huaijie floated above the island, watching as the Demon Beast army gradually encircled them in the center.

Behind them, nearly five thousand cultivators clad in dark spirit armor, wielding long halberd spiritual artifacts, were poised for battle,

ready to launch at any moment!

The two originally intended to catch the Demon Race off guard when they first arrived, before they had a firm footing, but now they could only abandon the plan!

”Daoist Profound Time, these Demon Race leaders seem extremely cautious; despite the considerable advantage, they’re not launching a direct attack!”

Master Huaijie wore a solemn expression; the behavior of these Demon Beasts was indeed unexpected for him.

Demon Beasts are born with strong physiques, and only upon reaching Tier Three do they awaken intelligence comparable to Human Race cultivators.

Thus, their nature is often impulsive.

However, the group of Demon Beasts before them appeared extremely cautious, advancing steadily and surely.

If the young man heard this, he would probably complain,

anyone who had been reckless a few times, each time nearly meeting their demise, would naturally become more composed,

or you could say ”timid”!

”Indeed, it seems that our desire to take the initiative will not come easily; fortunately, this Tier Four Middle-Grade ’Jade Water Listening Tide Array’ excels in defense, able to last a month even against several Nascent Souls together!”

True Monarch Profound Time nodded and sighed,

”Forget it, let them disband; tomorrow will probably not be easy!”

As soon as the words were spoken, a burly man in spirit armor acknowledged the order.

Shortly after, this army of five thousand cultivators was dismissed, returning to their Cave Mansions to rest.

Tomorrow, they would face a fierce battle!

...

The next morning, just as the sky was brightening,

a thin sea mist enveloped Jixing Island, appearing exceptionally beautiful under the first rays of the sun.

At that moment,

”Boom——”

Drumbeats resounded across every corner of Jixing Island!

Many cultivators resting inside the Array, holding their Magical Artifacts, were instantly awakened by the sound of war drums.

”The Demon Beasts are attacking!”

”Prepare to meet the enemy!”

”Prepare to meet the enemy!”

Looking up, they saw one Demon Beast after another advancing like a tide.

Various dazzling spells lit up the sky, intertwining with the earth-shattering roars of the Demon Beasts, creating a formidable tremor that seemed to threaten to overturn the entire sea.

They struck against the light screen of the ”Jade Water Listening Tide Array,” creating waves of sound!

At the forefront of the Demon Beast army, seven Demon Emperors stood proudly. The young man wore a black Dragon Robe, a solitary horn on his forehead emitting a cold light, his eyes full of ruthlessness and dominance.

He raised his hand slightly, and two figures behind him immediately flew up,

one of whom was the slightly overweight middle-aged man,

he formed a gesture with his hands, pointed at himself, and in a flash of light,

transformed into a seven hundred-zhang long Hundred-legged Dragon Centipede, its body covered in tough scale armor, and the two antennae on its head were particularly striking!

The other was a rotund man, whose nose extended two long whiskers,

in a flash of light from his body, he transformed into a four-hundred and fifty-zhang long Four-Legged Strange Catfish,

with a head that occupied half of its body, covered in black spots, its massive catfish whiskers dancing in the air like agile whips.

”Roar!”

The Dragon Centipede let out a deafening roar, then spewed a pillar of scorching flame from its mouth.

The pillar of flame, like a roaring Fire Dragon, carrying astonishing heat, slammed hard into the light screen of the ”Jade Water Listening Tide Array.”

”Boom!”

As fire met the light screen, a violent noise erupted, the light screen trembled intensely, seemingly on the verge of melting from the terrifying heat at any moment.

Meanwhile, the giant catfish opened its massive maw, spewing a black water stream like a waterfall.

It splashed onto the light screen in an instant,

this black water, containing immense impact and corrosive power, crashed into the array, producing a ”sizzling” sound, along with clouds of black smoke, and under this potent assault, the light screen shook even more,

Spirit Light flickering!

It was precisely the two Tier Four Middle-Grade Demon Emperors taking action!

At this moment, within the array, an elder with hair and beard all white, holding a gold Command Flag,
