The Blade-Wielding Legend

Chapter 1612 - 818: Thunder Fire Breaks the Raiders (Part 2)

"Look, the void boundary at the Gen position is marked, establishing the ’Divine Tiger Soul Gathering Hall.’ On the left is the ’Yangyao Passage Platform,’ and on the right is the ’Yin Spirit Soul Capturing Altar.’ This method can rely on the protection of the Divine Tiger; it allows the yin soul to travel and explore the summoning..."

Listening to Wang Daoxuan’s explanation, Li Yan suddenly understood.

This magic method is somewhat similar to his own "North Yin Fengdu Examination Summoning" technique.

However, the protector sent is not the yin soldiers but the sect’s tribute, the Divine Tiger General.

With the power of yin soul patrol, moving generates divine weapon protection, making it relatively safer.

The altar was established, and Jing Xuanzi’s expression became solemn, stepping with the "Divine Tiger Gang Step," his figure like a fierce tiger patrolling the mountains, imposing naturally.

Left hand pinching the "Yuqing Technique," the right hand holding high the Divine Tiger Main Banner, loud True Word echoed from his mouth:

"Beikui Xuanfan Mansion, Divine Tiger He Qiao, Two Great Saints! Three Chasing Soul Envoys, Seven True Jade Maiden Officers and Soldiers! Listen to my command, the jade tally talisman as proof! Quick like the law! Capture and chase Daishan Island Jintang Defense Thousand Households and nearby villages, new deceased and transformed, yang soul and yin spirit, quickly to the altar court, do not delay!"

Suddenly, the yin wind intensified!

The flags held by the disciples of the Shangqing Sect flew wildly, faint sounds of chanting coming through.

The sea surface surged with waves, dense fog rolling over.

Jing Xuanzi closed his eyes slightly, storing God and visualizing, then waved the magic artifact in his hand.

A thick scent of incense, wrapped by the raging wind, rose around him suddenly, pouring into the air.

It was the Divine Tiger General, protecting the old Daoist’s yin soul, patrolling four directions, seeking the entrance.

Seemingly feeling threatened, the waves around the island became increasingly turbulent, white fog rising thickly, sticky like cotton.

Sensing this, everyone raised their vigilance.

Puff!

The old Daoist suddenly opened his eyes, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, pointing to the right side and shouting sharply:

"It’s over there, such a powerful demon!"

Saying this, he collapsed to the ground.

Facing everyone’s concerns, he wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth and quickly said, "The entrance is on the cliff over there, it’s a cave, hiding a merman inside, with profound Dao skills, almost scattering my divine soul, fellow Daoists be careful!"

Toot—!

As he spoke, a long horn sound suddenly rang out.

Looking at the cliff area, the white fog grew thicker and seemed obscure.

Li Yan’s back hair suddenly stood up, shouting sharply: "Quickly disperse, be careful of the cannon!"

Such a distant threat could only come from firearms.

Swish swish swish!

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately dispersed across the beach.

Firelight surged within the thick fog, tearing the white mist apart, a mournful whistling sound coming through.

With a loud bang, a large pit appeared on the beach, sand splattered, smoke filled the air.

As everyone quickly evaded, there were no casualties.

However, the enemy’s attack had just begun.

Cannon fire sounded continuously, sand and smoke scattering loudly on the beach.

Two disciples from the Maoshan Shangqing Sect couldn’t evade and were hit directly by the cannonballs as thick as a bowl’s rim, being shattered into a thousand pieces.

"Junior Brother!"

"Senior Brother!"

Seeing this, the other disciples from the Maoshan Shangqing Sect were instantly enraged, their eyes turning red.

Yet at this distance, their spells could not approach at all.

"Wu Ba, move! Daoist, cover!"

Li Yan commanded, then using the North Emperor Divine Movement Skill, transformed into a phantom, weaving through the dense forest on the hillside towards the cliff.

Wang Daoxuan’s skill was ordinary, already carried by Wu Ba to a safe distance.

Without a word, he took two yellow talismans from his bosom, wrapped in two black pills, chanted a mantra, and tossed them.

These are little gadgets obtained from Qiankun Academy, failed creations of Alchemy Masters.

Once ignited, they release thick smoke.

Poof poof!

Before hitting the ground, the two yellow talismans transformed into fireballs, and the black pills inside exploded sharply.

Suddenly, red, green, yellow, various thick smoke surged outward, covering the entire beach.

The enemy lost their vision and ceased firing at will.

Wu Ba, beside Wang Daoxuan, was already prepared.

He set up the Tiger-Squat Cannon, loaded ammunition, and aimed at the thick fog.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, smoke scattered.

Wu Ba flew back seven or eight meters, his feet dragging long marks in the sand on the beach.

Within the thick fog, three small boats exploded violently, shattered wood mix with flesh scattered all over.

"Follow me!"

Sha Lifei roared lowly, leading the remaining people towards the cliff.

The wounded old Daoist from Maoshan Shangqing Sect had long been dragged into the village at the rear for healing.

After all, they were the elite of the Mystical Sect, and in a short time, everyone had made their responses.

Lv San ran while waving his hand.

Accompanied by the loud cry of an eagle, Li Dong soared into the sky and disappeared into the gloomy sky.

This was the previously set plan—it would be Li Dong who went to the Navy to report if anything happened.

.......

Daishan Island wasn’t big, Li Yan quickly arrived at the cliff.

As soon as he approached, he saw a few figures climbing up from below the cliff.

It was several pirates dressed in ranger clothes, their heads shaved and faces full of fierce expressions.

"Kill!"

Several men drew out Wodao with a clank and rushed toward Li Yan.

They were clearly seasoned warriors, swift as the wind beneath their feet, brimming with murderous intent.

Climbing up from below the cliff was obviously to take advantage of the terrain and prevent Li Yan and his men from attacking from above.

However, they were no match for Li Yan.

Li Yan didn’t even bother to draw his blade; he didn’t slow down a bit, and two Soul-breaking Flying Blades shot out from his waist.

The blades flashed through the air, and Li Yan stood atop the cliff.

Behind him, the pirates’ heads were pierced, and they fell to the ground, breathless.

Soon, Sha Lifei and the others arrived.

Here, although the white mist below was still dense, they could already see shadows of ships.

Some large, some small, emerging from below the cliff.

"They’re trying to escape!"

Everyone saw it and guessed the pirates’ plan.

"Wishful thinking!"

Sha Lifei took out three fire thorns made of thin iron from his backpack.

Lv San and Li Yan lit them, calculated the time, and threw them fiercely.

These fire thorns were made of new gunpowder, mixed with a large amount of iron sand and iron shards.

Boom!

Above those ships, three fire thorns exploded one by one.

This new gunpowder had an incredible power, although only as big as a bowl, the bursting flame was extremely remarkable.

More terrifyingly, the iron sand and iron shards whistled terrifyingly, spreading around.

Puff, puff, puff!

Many pirate ship sails below were shattered, and those within reach erupted in blood mist, screaming and collapsing.

"Kill!"

Shouts rang out, and many figures emerged from the thick fog.

These pirates were vicious, trying to climb up from below the cliff to attack.

Sha Lifei laughed aloud and kept pulling the trigger of the Divine Fire Gun.

One silhouette after another was pulverized, flesh and blood splattered, shot after shot was on target.

These "Sea Demon Group" were indeed the elite pirates, usually using evil skills to hide in the thick fog, launching wolf-like surprise attacks. Many merchant teams were thus slaughtered without trace, leaving behind many terrifying legends.

But now, without advantage, they were powerless against the elite of the Mystical Sect and the new firearms.

Meanwhile, ship shadows appeared on the sea.

It was the Navy fleet that received the information and came to provide backup.

Li Dong was flying back and forth, letting out eagle cries.

"Retreat first, the Navy is going to attack!"

Lv San’s ear twitched, and immediately led everyone to retreat from the cliff.

On the deck of the flagship tower ship of the Navy, looking at the traces of Li Dong flying above, Assistant General Zhou waved a firm hand.

"Open fire!"

At once, deafening roars tore apart the sea and sky.

The shells wrapped in red flame cut through the fog, exploding with devastating shockwaves upon landing.

The sea shook violently, huge waves rose several meters high.

The cliff shuddered, the cliff of Daishan Island collapsed under the artillery fire.

Giant rocks rained down, forcing Li Yan and his team, already hundreds of meters back, to retreat further.

The Sea Demon Group fleet trying to escape were the front targets.

Fast ships were accurately struck, their hulls shattered in flames, debris and flesh scattered, nothing was left but ash.

Cannon fire resounded continuously, like thunder rolling over the sea surface, the pirates’ wails drowned in the explosion frenzy.

In just moments, the area was left a wasteland.

The entire cliff completely collapsed, the sea muddied, filled with ship debris and corpses.

And the thick fog surrounding disappeared, revealing a clear sky and a shattered shore.

Within the collapsed cliff, a cavern leading underground appeared, with sea water continuously flooding in...
