After 100 rounds of attacks, the Corpse Wizard King discerned that the Demon Island’s Protective Formation Spell was still as firm as a boulder, and he could only helplessly instruct the people to stop. “Your lordship! This Magical Formation Spell is so terrifying, What should we do?”
“This isn’t an ordinary Magical Formation Spell, and if I didn’t guess wrong, this should be the Magical Beast Plane’s legendary Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell.” Hydra that took back a serpent-woman form shook its head and smiled bitterly. It could only say helplessly, “It’s said that the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell don’t just consume a large amount of Crystal Ores, and it will still extract the Earth Element Magical Power in the vicinity. If the Formation Spell isn’t supplemented with any Crystal Ores and it had extracted all Earth Element Magical Power in the vicinity, it will collapse.”
Could an Ancient Magical Formation Spell absorb worldly energy?
Yang Ling furrowed his brows. “Hydra, what you are implying is that we won’t manage to break the island’s Protective Formation Spell as long as the Demon Island still has Earth Element Magical Power?”
“Your lordship! It’s like so in theory. If we don’t have a way to destroy everything below the Demon Island’s sea level, the island’s Protective Formation Spell will get to absorb a steady flow of a large amount of energy, and we don’t manage to destroy it,” Hydra was quite helpless, and it spoke in a gloomy tone.
The Formation Spell’s base was firm and hard because it was also protected by the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell, and the failure of the beauty Sala’s operation with the Groundhog Army was proof for this. Hydra was a divine beast with power at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage, and it was confident that it could destroy a towering peak, but it still couldn’t come up in a short time with a way to break the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell that possessed boundless might.
This was still a damaged Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell, and if it was intact, the situation would be worse because it was said that the complete Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell could deflect even long-range attacks. Even a divine beast with power at the peak of the High-Level Deity Stage wouldn’t be able to destroy the intact Formation Spell, let alone a trifling Mid-Level Divine Beast.
“Sigh! We still don’t have a solution.”
“Why? Why we always fail when we are short of a little? I don’t want to accept this. I don’t want to accept this.”
…
When the Sea Tribes that rebelled discerned that the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragon-Bone Carriages were unable to destroy the Demon Island’s Protective Formation Spell, they were all disappointed. Some of them shook their heads and sighed, while the eyes of some turned bloodshot, and they yelled resentfully.
For the past years, many people lost their assets and their families due to the Sea Demons’ ruthless regime. Even if the rich resources didn’t lure them in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension, many people seeking revenge would desire to follow Yang Ling’s army and attack the Demon Island. It was a pity that their wish wasn’t fulfilled even though they waited strenuously for a long time.
The Sea Tribes’ rebels were disappointed, while the defenders on the Demon Island were cheering excitedly. It was first a 2000-meter-long python before 100 terrifying Magic Crystal Cannons. They were scared and on edge, but it was fortunate that they survived again thanks to the island’s Protective Formation Spell. They had consumed a large amount of stored Crystal Ores, but they had still protected their headquarters, the Demon Island, and they would get later many chances to plunder more Crystal Ores.
“Hahaha, even lowly people like you want to attack our Demon Island? Just dream on!” The old witch laughed complacently and glared viciously at Yang Ling, whose brows were furrowed. “I have assumed that the Great Demon King was outstanding, yet he doesn’t amount to more than this.”
“Exactly! You should surrender as soon as possible, as once our great army comes back, you won’t have any room for escape.”
“The men should be cut up into pieces to feed fish. As for women? Hehe…”
…
A group of strange old people with odd appearances started shouting in support with a vile smile across their faces. Some of them were old Sea Demon with a face filled with wrinkles, while others were dwarves with big heads that didn’t reach half a mater and strange Octopus Monster with many tentacles. They had all encircled the laughing old witch and crowded around her.
“Old lady, if you didn’t remind me, I would have already forgotten the dream I had last night.” When Yang Ling saw the arrogant old witch, he smiled and said. “Last night, I dreamed that we had gone back to the Magical Beast Plaza that was packed with people, and I saw an old woman with a face filled with wrinkles bound to a pillar butt-naked. Tsk, tsk, her butt was bigger than her head, and anyone who wanted to have a glance at it must pay 100 Purple Crystal Coins. It was really outrageous!”
A butt-naked old woman with a face filled with wrinkles?
The crowd was taken aback, and they quickly started laughing before they looked with glee at the old with that was usually lofty and great. They were speaking one after the other and insulting the woman viciously. Even if they couldn’t intrude into the island, they could still curse the enemy and give vent to their anger. Moreover, if they provoked the old witch so much that she lost reason and deactivated the island’s Protective Formation Spell before rushing out, then this would be the best outcome possible.
“B*stards, you are all damned b*stards.” When the old witch heard the crowd’s outrageous insults, she flew into a rage, and she was about to stand up to come up with a way to give vent to her anger. But, she had unexpectedly forgotten that her legs were already chopped off, and she fell heavily upon the ground. Her head and face ended up covered in dirt in front of everyone!
“Darn it! You should all die. Guards, take out the captives, and kill them. Kill them!” The infuriated old witch had almost gone crazy, and after she passed down orders, the soldiers pushed out the captives and started chopping their heads like cutting vegetables. They had even thrown some hostages at tens Sea Dragons and let them tear those hostages into shreds and swallow them down.
“No, release my mother!”
“Ella, my Ella!”
…
When some Sea Tribe’s warriors saw their relatives torn to shreds, their eyes turned bloodshot, and they attacked crazily the island’s Protective Formation Spell that emitted a scarlet halo. They rammed their shoulder against it, hacked it with their axes, and even threw some heavy rocks at it.
“Hahaha, die, you should all die.” It seemed like the old witch found the Sea Dragons’ slaughter speed quite slow, and that was why she waved her hands to release myriad Wind Blades that cut a group of elderly and children into shreds before she laughed crazily.
A lunatic! She was really at her road’s end, and she turned into a homicidal maniac-like lunatic.
BANG!
It seemed like even God couldn’t bear watching this in silence, and a bolt of thunder dropped from the pitch-black sky. The serpentine lightning bolt fell precisely upon the island’s Protective Magical Formation, and its radiance shone upon the old witch’s hideous smile. As a sizzling sound echoed out, the scarlet halo emitted by the island’s Protective Formation Spell was shaken, and it quickly consumed a large number of Premium Crystal Ores.
As a gale blew over, raindrop as big as bean started falling, and giant waves arose in the sea. A wave upon wave thrashed the reefs near the shore, and the imminent great storm finally occurred.
Lightning! Wasn’t this natural lightning that possessed boundless might?
The numerous Sea Tribe’s members threw the torches extinguished by the rain and started looking hurriedly for a natural cave where they could take shelter from the terrifying storm. As for Yang Ling that was standing among the storm, he got an idea, and as he looked at the dazzling lightning bolts in the sky, he quickly came up with a way to break the Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell.
The offense was the best defense, and even a stronger Magical Formation Spell would still quickly collapse upon sustaining attacks beyond its upper bearing limit. All plots and defenses were useless in the face of absolute power!
Moreover, this was just a damaged Magical Formation Spell!
“Come over! Today, I will let you see the real power of a Great Wizard.” Yang Ling soared into the sky and floated in the sky atop the Demon Island. He started weaving Wizard Seals with both hands and read in silence a Wizard Mantra. He started using his great Wizard Power at full speed and followed the instructions in the Holy Templar Anthony’s memory. Many shocking serpentine lightning bolts quickly emerged outside his body.
“Thunderous Storm!”
Yang Ling let out a shout, and a serpentine lightning bolt fiercely hacked the island’s Protective Formation Spell. It triggered the Lightning Energy condensed in the sky long ago, and as a sizzling sound echoed out, numerous thick lightning bolts fell from the sky, and they rained upon the Demon Island’s Protective Formation Spell.
Creak!
The scarlet halo emitted by the island’s Protective Formation Spell shook intensely like a wooden door on the verge of collapse and emitted ear-piercing noise. If it were just one or two lightning bolts, it wouldn’t have mattered, but the halo sustained the attacks of thousands upon thousands of lightning bolts in a short time, and the situation turned completely different.
The lightning guided by Yang Ling struck accurately the same spot of the island’s Protective Formation Spell, and the whole Magical Formation Spell would shake intensely with every attack.
Nature’s power was beyond people’s imaginations.
“Hurry up and put all Crystal Ores inside. Hurry up!” The old witch was flustered, exasperated, startled, and angered. She passed down orders and instructed the soldiers to quickly supplement the island’s Protective Formation Spell with more energy. But it was a pity that the energy consumption of the Magical Formation Spell that sustained the attacks of the lighting that filled the sky was too high, and after they just put a chariot of Crystal Ores inside it, it was completely exhausted before the soldiers could take a single breath. The energy consumption surpassed greatly the speed at which they filled it with crystals.
Sizzle!
The scarlet halo emitted by the island’s Protective Formation Spell started turning dimmer quickly, and many cracks as big as a thumb appeared on the Magical Formation Spell’s outer periphery. It started splitting open like a dry rice field, and as it consumed energy quicker, cracks appeared quicker.
In the twinkling of an eye, the cracks as big as a thumb became long and deep crevices, and they were still quickly expanding. The island’s Protective Formation Spell that obstructed many powerful enemies for the Demon Island many times was finally on the verge of collapse.
“Charge there, charge there together. Hurry up!” The Corpse Wizard King let out a shout and rushed with the Magical Beast Army. He attacked crazily the island’s Protective Formation Spell that was on the verge of collapse.
Hydra didn’t give regard to the pain it suffered due to its wound, and it turned into a giant python before it rammed the halo head-on like a shell. As for the Dark Dragon King and Flying Dragon King, they all took back their main form and dived down fast from a high altitude along with numerous Black Dragons and Flying Dragons. They attacked crazily the scarlet halo that was turning dimmer, and even the small Horned Bee Beasts, Vampire Bats, and other small Low-Level Magical Beasts also joined the ranks and carried out fierce attacks.
After the Magical Beast Army gave the crowd a demonstration, the Sea Tribes adamant about seeking revenge joined the ranks of fighters. They gnashed their teeth and attacked the scarlet halo formed by the island’s Magical Beast with their whole might.
“Mt. Hua Splitting Strike! Split open!”
After Yang Ling released a lightning bolt, a swooshing sound echoed out as he pulled out his sharp Battle Soul Blade, and he held it with both hands as he attacked from a high altitude. In an instant, the weather changed, and tremendous energy that brought with it a boundless murderous aura attacked the island’s Protective Formation Spell that was on the verge of collapse.
As a cracking sound echoed out, the spell was destroyed thoroughly, and many marine trench-like crevices were left on the ground. The bloodthirsty and crazy Magical Beast Army as well as the Sea Tribes’ rebels swarmed inside and started slaughtering the soldiers and the Sea Demons left behind to guard the island.
