The treasure ship broke through the sea, and under the guidance of Liang Tianfeng, Yang Fan sailed rapidly south on the sea.
After insisting on meeting with the Tianxuan Sect monks, the two sides would pull up a huge net on the vast sea area of three thousand miles outside the Tianxuan Sect to drive the Mara flowing in the sea from north to south, of which the True Spirit Sect would be responsible for the sea area from the storm ocean to the west of the sea area eight hundred miles away.
In order to prevent the Mara army from skipping this line of defense, the more than ten Dharma monks of the True Spirit Sect stayed on the treasure ship, except for Lu Ping, Jiang Tianlin, and Liang Tianfeng, who led the way, and the rest of the people led their disciples to roughly parallel the treasure ship and the Tianxuan Sect monks on the sea, driving the Mara on the sea all the way south.
In the treasure cabin, when there was no enemy, Jiang Tianlin would hand over the movement of the treasure ship to the treasure ship's instrument spirit Ruyu for control, while the three of them sat in the treasure cabin at will.
"It's in this direction, this coral reef island is three hundred miles south to the location of the desert island, where I met the Mara army that was gathering, two Asuras, if I had run one step late, I would have lost my life."
Liang Tianfeng obviously still seemed to have some lingering fears.
Jiang Tianlin asked Lu Ping: "Master Lu does Nephew suspect that there is something strange on this island?"
Lu Ping smiled and said: "I hope it's weird, we all know that Mara has never gathered in one place for too long, unless this place has a place that attracts Mara, which has also formed a very popular proverb in the cultivation world, called 'Mara does not fall into a place without treasure', if this place is really a gathering place for Mara's army, then this island is worth exploring."
Jiang Tianlin pondered for a moment and said: "Just in case, notify everyone to return to the treasure ship and concentrate on finding out what is strange about this island."
After that, Jiang Tianlin turned to the treasure cabin and said: "Let's see if Xuanwei has gone to sea, if not, call him here."
As the only ore prospector of the True Spirit Sect, Xuanwei Zhenren's status is now rising, especially after experiencing a dispute with the Heavenly Art Ancestor, Xuanwei Zhenren has received strong support from the sect, but this time he was also dispatched to Middle-earth when the treasure ship went west.
After the treasure ship docked, Xuanwei Zhenren would go to Yingshan Villa, and then secretly look for ore veins in the Hebei cultivation world as a traveling and loose cultivator, one was to expand cultivation resources and alleviate the growing pressure on cultivation resources of the True Spirit Sect, and the other was to hone and improve his mineral hunting secret technique and improve his mineral hunting level.
No matter what was on that deserted island, once the True Spirit Sect cultivators expelled Mara from the nearby seas, they would use Xuanwei Zhenren to investigate on the island.
When the treasure ship was still about two hundred miles away from the desert island, four monks who were patrolling the surrounding waters had already led the team back, and the remaining six were still maintaining the defense line, taking the opportunity to escape north to imitate the Mara team.
When the treasure ship was only one hundred and fifty miles away from the desert island, Lu Ping seemed to feel something strange in the sea area ahead, stood up and walked towards the deck of the treasure ship.
Jiang Tianlin also seemed to have sensed, but at this time, he needed to guard the treasure cabin and control the treasure ship to prevent unpredictable dangers.
The treasure ship advanced fifty miles again, and on the calm sea, it could even see the deserted island that Liang Tianfeng had seen in the distance.
Lu Ping's expression was slightly solemn, he stretched out his hand and turned over, the Nine Dragon Bell had already fallen into his palm, and then threw it gently, and a series of eight small bells were separated from the Nine Dragon Bell, and each small bell was surrounded by a dragon.
The dragon-shaped sculpture was running around on the nine small bells, and said dissatisfiedly: "As for being so nervous, you actually need this dragon to come out?"
Lu Ping volleyed a backhand into the air, the dragon-shaped sculpture immediately stopped, the eight small bells gradually increased into three-foot bronze bells, and then flew to the front, back, left and right of the treasure ship and on the mast.
The treasure ship broke the waves extremely fast, and you could feel the strong sea breeze while standing at the bow, but the eight hanging bronze bells did not move at all in the sea breeze.
The treasure ship was still fifty miles away from the desert island, and the various forbidden runes on the treasure ship's hull were lit up one by one, and then with a buzzing sound, the entire treasure ship was suddenly shrouded in a large guard array, and the atmosphere on the entire treasure ship suddenly became tense, and the disciples of the True Spirit Sect on the treasure ship performed their duties and prepared to respond.
At this moment, Lu Ping smiled slightly at the dragon-shaped sculpture and said, "Let you see a big scene!"
"What?"
Before the dragon-shaped sculpture could react, he saw that Lu Ping had a drumstick in his hand at some point, which was also a magic weapon.
The dragon-shaped sculpture was shocked and said: "What are you going to do, it's a drumstick and not a bell and a hammer, hey, hey!"
Lu Ping struck a Nine Dragon Bell with the drumstick in his hand, and the other eight bronze bells on the treasure ship responded one after another as if they were spirits, so what sounded on the treasure ship was nine bells in the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang! ……
Nine bells rang one after another, and the originally calm sea in front of the treasure ship suddenly became turbulent, and then a series of creepy screams came from under the distant sea, countless Mara broke out of the water, and suddenly went crazy under the agitation of the Avenue Nine Dragon Bell, like headless flies running around on the sea surface, the entire sea surface suddenly churned, and countless huge waves undercurrents raged in the sea area fifty miles ahead, and even many were killed by Mara in the chaos.
"The Mara army is trying to ambush us in this sea area?"
Liang Tianfeng came behind Lu Ping at some point, and was also surprised by the scene of the group of demons dancing in front of him.
If the treasure ship really sailed into the area ambushed by the Mara army at this time and suddenly attacked, even if the people of the True Spirit Sect could keep the treasure ship intact, they would probably suffer a lot of losses.
"It's just some miscellaneous fish, Mara's real killer move can't be greatly affected by the Nine Dragon Bell, those high-level Mara who haven't appeared until now are really likely to cause damage to the treasure ship, the Nine Dragon Bell can only make Mara's ambush completely fail, the rest are hard bones, prepare for a tough battle, there is really something strange on this deserted island!"
"But this Nine Dragon Bell is probably enough for this group of Maras to suffer, it seems that all the big Maras below the Blood Demon have fallen into chaos, and the little Mara is gone, I am afraid that it has been wiped out under the sea, this is much more powerful than the Canghai Bell of Senior Xiang Lou."
Lu Ping shook his head and said with a solemn expression: "The power of the nine bronze bells of the Nine Dragon Bell is almost the same as that of the Canghai Bell, after all, the Nine Dragon Bell is not a real spiritual treasure, but with the combined efforts of these nine bells, the scope of the magical power is far beyond the Canghai Bell, so there is such a scene in front of you.
The four Dharma Phase cultivators who returned to the treasure ship were the four mid-Dharma phase cultivators Tianfeng, Tiancheng, Tianshan, and Tianyuan, and seeing such a scene in front of them, they were ready for a big battle without Lu Ping saying more.
Just as Lu Ping's voice fell, a loud roar suddenly came from the desert island fifty miles away, and the sound waves rolled, and even the clouds floating in the sky were affected, and they were suddenly shattered by the impact.
The scene on the sea that had been in chaos suddenly froze, and the roar seemed to have unwavering magic, which suddenly soothed the pain caused by the damage caused by the Nine Dragon Bell to the Mara army.
A dark cloud rose from the desert island and rolled in the direction of the treasure ship.
Lu Ping exclaimed: "This is troublesome, there is actually a heavenly demon on this deserted island!"
The appearance of the Heavenly Demon not only surprised Lu Ping, but also caused the True Spirit Sect to fall into a panic for a while.
Although Jiang Tianlin was sitting in the treasure cabin, the situation in the sea around the treasure ship was clearly displayed on the Yingxu Treasure Mirror.
"Do you want to retreat first?"
Jiang Tianlin was still calm, even if a heavenly demon appeared, he could completely resist with the power of the treasure ship, and no matter how bad it was, he could retreat safely, at this time, the True Spirit Sect no longer had to fall into a desperate battle because of blocking the entrance to the storm ocean as before.
Although once the True Spirit Sect retreated, this time the plan of the four factions to drive away the Sea Mara was very likely to fail, but the appearance of the Heavenly Demon was obviously beyond everyone's expectations, and no one would blame the True Spirit Sect for this.
Lu Ping's eyes were shining, staring at the black mist of the Heavenly Demon that was getting closer and closer in the distance, gritted his teeth, and said: "Don't worry, if you fight without a fight like this, wouldn't it make the various factions in Middle-earth underestimate my Beihai Sect, all the masters and uncles are guarding the treasure ship, and the disciples will go to meet this Heavenly Demon for a while."
Liang Tianfeng said: "Are you sure? Now is not the time to show off, otherwise we will retreat first and inform Tianxuanzong of the situation here, and the Pure Yang Ancestor of Xuanzong and Tianyue Sect will come to deal with it that day, and we can also temporarily stabilize the defense line to prevent Mara from fleeing north."
Lu Ping pointed to the desert island in the distance and said, "Master, that deserted island is not only a gathering place for Mara, but also has such an existence as a heavenly demon. If we wait for the seven fans and the full moon to come, the treasures on the island may fall into the hands of this sect, and wealth and danger will be sought, and the disciple will give it a try no matter what."
Liang Tianfeng was still waiting to be persuaded, Lu Ping smiled and said: "Master, don't worry, even if the disciple is not the opponent of this Heavenly Demon, he is sure to retreat with his whole body, but there are still two asuras around this Heavenly Demon to protect each other, and Master and others are still needed to contain it on their behalf."
Jiang Tianlin said at this time: "It's okay, once there is danger, return the treasure ship as soon as possible, and then you and I will join forces to strengthen the treasure ship, even the heavenly demon can't help it."
