In the areas tainted by demonic qi, the normal sea creatures began undergoing violent mutations.
Ordinary-sized fish suddenly ballooned in size, their fins, tails, and scales sprouting sharp barbs.
Some even grew claws on their bellies and developed razor-sharp, scythe-like appendages on their sides.
Their heads enlarged drastically, bristling with fierce fangs.
Some grew several heads resembling various animals – cows, tigers, sheep, bears – and sprouted numerous twisted, menacing tentacles, writhing and fluttering terrifyingly.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, Perfected Lord Flowing Snow, Perfected Lord Star Sea, and Earth Walker’s expressions changed drastically.
A thought flashed through their minds: This was true demonic contamination!
It was imaginable that if low-level cultivators were outside the array, they would quickly transform into monstrous beings, completely demonized.
“Hahahahaha!”
Just then, a series of wild and unrestrained laughter echoed across the Nowa Waters.
Jiang Chengxuan and the other cultivators’ expressions tensed as they turned to look.
In the area shrouded in black light and dense demonic qi, dark battleships appeared.
On those pitch-black battleships stood evil figures.
These figures were surrounded by demonic flames, exuding immense power.
Among them, six figures stood out as the most terrifying, each emanating an aura of Soul Formation, or in demonic terms, a Demon Lord.
Behind them were hundreds of Nascent Soul demonic cultivators and thousands of Golden Core demonic cultivators.
Most importantly, alongside or behind these demonic cultivators were huge, ferocious monsters with eyes revealing madness and bloodlust, likely bred and tainted by demonic qi over years.
The strongest of these monsters were also at Level 6.
Such a formidable lineup would have easily defeated the human cultivators had they not prepared the array in advance.
Even now, with the array as a barrier, the situation was far from optimistic.
BOOM!
Suddenly, the massive dark battleships, boosted by the power of the six demon lords and numerous demonic cultivators, collided fiercely with the Nine Heavens Star River Array.
A terrifying explosion resounded, sending huge, tsunami-like waves in all directions, pulverizing nearby islands, evaporating seawater, and instantly turning the mutated sea creatures into clouds of blood mist.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the same time.
Deep black beams of light struck the Nine Heavens Star River Array, which responded by radiating infinite light.
There were also dazzling stars that suddenly fell from the Nine Heavens and augmented the array.
In the blink of an eye, a series of terrifying explosions erupted in the point where the two sides collided.
On the black battleship.
A man clad in black dragon armor narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly, “It seems the human race was well prepared. Our current assault is unable to breach their array.”
Another man with a black crescent mark between his eyebrows sneered and said,
“What does it matter? It’s just the dying struggle of ants.
What we need to do is just to exert a bit more effort.
I refuse to believe that with our strength today, we cannot break the defenses of these human cultivators.”
“You’re right, Fellow Daoist Wicked Moon.”
At this moment, another man in blood-colored armor said,
“Why not let our juniors lead the sacred beasts and confront them first?
If they can break through their grand array, all the better. Even if they can’t, we can still weaken their array’s power, paving the way for our eventual victory. I believe they won’t disappoint us.”
Following his words, numerous figures, like a swarm of locusts, descended from the dark battleships toward the Nova Waters below.
Leading them were cultivators at least at the seventh level of Nascent Soul, not to mention several at the peak of the ninth level, and accompanying them were peak Level 6 demonic creatures.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, a huge explosion sounded again.
The place where Jiang Chengxuan and the others were stationed was one of the most important array eyes, known as the Jade Light Flying Immortal Array, anchored on the Spiritual Island of the Vast River where Perfected Lord Vast River was from.
Thus, besides the Jiang nation cultivators, the island also hosted the two South Sea Immortals, Gudu Baifei and Situ Xiang, and Perfected Lord Vast River, the original master of the island.
However.
In order to protect such an important array eye, there were naturally more than six Nascent Soul cultivators.
However, the other people’s cultivation levels could not compare to Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
They had only reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul.
Their main role was to assist Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
In the black light that filled the sky, countless figures with powerful auras suddenly descended.
A small portion of them came for the Jade Light Flying Immortal Array, which was the Spiritual Island of the Vast River.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Tang Baisheng, the two South Sea Immortals, and Perfected Lord Vast River narrowed their eyes.
This was because they could sense that among the demonic cultivators who came, there were actually seven of them who had reached the level of a grand cultivator.
There were more than 20 mid-stage and early-stage Nascent Soul demonic cultivators in total.
In addition, the number of Golden Core and Violet Palace demonic cultivators was more than two to three times their number.
The two South Sea Immortals, Perfected Lord Vast River and the other cultivators felt immense pressure.
At this moment, Dugu Baifei said,
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Shen, and Fellow Daoist Vast River, looking at the current situation, the demonic cultivators clearly treat our place as one of the breakthrough points.
Needless to say, their attacks will definitely be very ferocious later.
At that time, I hope that we can do our best to stop their attack. We can’t let them have a chance.”
Everyone present, be it Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, or Perfected Lord Vast River, clearly approved of Dugu Baifei’s words.
Everyone could not help but nod.
Just as Perfected Lord Vast River was about to say something, outside the Spiritual Island of the Vast River,
Among the demonic cultivators who came, someone suddenly took out an item that looked like a conch from their bodies and blew it.
Wuuu wuuu—
The low, rhythmic sound seemed to stir something in the sea.
Numerous mutated sea creatures began to emerge and, without hesitation, charged towards Vast River Island under the influence of the sound.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Instantly, the first wave of mutated creatures burst into clouds of blood mist under the power of the Jade Light Flying Immortal Array.
Yet, undeterred and fearless, more and more creatures continued their relentless charge towards the island..
