Chapter 1184 Attacking the Crimson Dragon Island

Gazing upon the Immortals before him, Eldrin felt a surge of confidence welling within his heart.

This battle would determine the dominion over the Crimson Dragon Sea. Once they captured the Crimson Dragon Immortal Island, the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) would become the true master of these waters.

By then, the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) would become a dominant force ruling over a vast sea territory, much like the era of the Crimson Dragon Ancestor (Person Name) in the past.

Thus, for this battle, Eldrin (Person Name) summoned all his old allies, and those by his side mobilized in full force.

There were merely 20-1 immortals who had reached the Ascension Realm.

Among them, those possessing combat prowess at the Ninth Ascension Realm or higher numbered only 4: Eldrin (Person Name), Celestial Wind Immortal, Star Maiden, and Lyra (Person Name).

At the Late Ascension stage, there were also 2 individuals: 6-Celestials Immortal and Qing Ji.

There were even more at the middle and early stages of Ascension, including Yan Zi, Lila (Person Name), Kael (Person Name), the Master of the Dao Palace, the Demonic Sage Peng Kun, the Daoist Master Kun Xuan, Lin Tianqi, the Divine Thunder Tribulation Spirit, the Hall Master of the Star Palace, the Palace Master of the Drifting Snow Palace, Li Huang, and the Ancestral Black Tortoise—12 individuals from the Immortal Alliance.

There were also old friends such as Tianyu Ziyan and his wife, as well as the Transcendent Void Immortal.

That amounted to a full 20-1 venerable Immortals. Even if they were all merely at the early Immortal Ascension stage, joining forces should allow them to withstand 2 or 3 opponents at the Ninth Heaven of Immortal Ascension.

Among them were not only 4 experts at the peak of the Ninth Heaven Ascension realm, but they also carried multiple supreme-grade immortal treasures. It was estimated that these would be sufficient to contend against 2 or even 3 Half-Step Earth Immortals.

At this thought, Eldrin smiled with unwavering confidence and declared, "Fellow Daoists, after today's battle, the Crimson Dragon Sea should welcome a new master."

As the words faded, Eldrin led the group toward Crimson Dragon Island.

Before long, they fought their way to the heart of the Crimson Dragon Sea, arriving before the Crimson Dragon Island.

Gazing at the Crimson Dragon Island before him, Immortal Tianfeng furrowed his brow slightly and remarked, "The guardian formation of this Crimson Dragon Island is extraordinary. It would be wise to proceed with caution."

"Hmm."

Eldrin gave a slight nod, his brow involuntarily furrowing. The mountain-protecting formation of Crimson Dragon Island was arranged using the Crimson Dragon Sky-Scorching Sword.

Under the enhancement of the formation, each strike of the Crimson Dragon Heaven-Scorching Sword rivaled a full-powered blow from a half-step Earth Immortal.

Among those present, aside from a select few such as Eldrin, no 1 else could possibly withstand it.

This caused Eldrin's gaze to darken slightly. After a moment of contemplation, he remarked, "To break this formation, it would be best to employ the Ancient Warship."

"But our Chen Clan doesn't have any, so we can only rely on our own people to defend against it."

Xing Ji, however, was brimming with confidence and replied calmly, "The immortal vein of Crimson Dragon Island is merely a high-grade immortal vein, capable of supporting the Crimson Dragon Heaven-Incinerating Sword for no more than 9 strikes at most."

"If we can withstand these 9 strikes, the formation will be depleted of all offensive power, and we can then proceed to dismantle it."

Lyra furrowed her brow slightly and couldn't resist saying, "Whether our methods can withstand these 9 swords is the crucial question."

"Rest assured, the island protection formation shall be entrusted to me."

Xing Ji said as she drew from her sleeve a 7-colored mist: "This is the Earth Immortal treasure, Taiyi 7 Smoke Aegis, a peerless protective treasure forged by the Divine Lord through refining the essence of 7-hued dawn clouds."

"With this treasure guarding us, even a Half-Step Earth Immortal could not harm you or me."

As the words fell, Elder Xing Ji took a step forward, summoning a dazzling star-lit silk ribbon that slashed toward Crimson Dragon Island.

"Bzzz—"

Under attack, the Crimson Dragon Island's protective formation rippled with faint undulations.

The Void Black Dragon sensed that the situation was dire and immediately roared in fury, "Eldrin, do you truly intend to pursue annihilation?"

"Hmph—"

His answer was a cold snort. Eldrin calmly unleashed the Great 5 Elements Pure Yang Divine Thunder and spoke with serene composure: "When you hunted down my child, did you ever consider sparing her life?"

At the same time, a full 20-1 Immortals struck in succession. An unbroken torrent of divine abilities, immortal arts, and celestial treasures rained down, battering the Scarlet Dragon Island’s mountain-protecting formation until its radiance flickered wildly.

"Damn it!"

Sensing the situation turning unfavorable, the Void Black Dragon's expression shifted slightly.

He immediately looked toward the depths of Crimson Dragon Island, his face pale with terror as he exclaimed, "Ancestor, something terrible has happened!"

"Hold the line for now, I shall join you shortly."

Within the immortal isle, a voice slowly drifted forth, seeming to fortify the confidence of the Void Black Dragon.

He swept his gaze over the crowd, gritted his teeth and declared, "Daring to trespass upon my Crimson Dragon Island—today, your deaths are assured."

"Clang—"

As the words faded, a single sword cry rang out.

Eldrin saw only a resplendent immortal sword soaring into the sky—a heavenly blade of laws interwoven with the dazzling Crimson Flame Qi (Spiritual Root).

The divine sword blazed with resplendent radiance, descending with the awe-inspiring majesty of the heavens as it cleaved through the air like a primordial blade capable of splitting creation itself.

"Stand behind me."

Xing Ji immediately spoke up. The 7 Mists of Taiyi in her hand suddenly expanded, transforming into a sky-shrouding curtain of light that propped open the void, enveloping everyone within it and blocking the Heaven-Cleaving Immortal Sword.

Struck by this blow, Star Princess's face instantly paled slightly as she said in astonishment, "The Crimson Dragon Heaven-Scorching Sword possesses such formidable power. It seems the Crimson Dragon truly came close to piercing the heavens back in its day."

Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) couldn't help but ask with concern, "How are you holding up? Can you still hold them off?"

"Rest assured, this 7 Mists of Taiyi is a treasure of the Earth Immortals. That sword cannot breach its defense."

At this point, Qingji (Person Name) spoke again with a slightly darkened expression, "But I fear my spiritual power is insufficient. Blocking all 9 swords would be somewhat beyond my capabilities."

Seeing this, Eldrin (Person Name) spoke up, "I shall have a few other fellow cultivators assist you. It should prove somewhat helpful."

As the words fell, Immortal Yan Zi, Lila (Person Name), and several other immortals stepped forward, beginning to assist Star Princess in activating this Taiyi 7 Smoke Net.

Seeing this, the others immediately resumed their attacks, intent on breaching the Crimson Dragon Island's grand defensive formation.

"Damn it!"

As the crowd continued their relentless assault on the grand formation, the countenance of the Voidshadow Black Dragon grew increasingly somber.

The immortal qi within Crimson Dragon Island was insufficient, and facing the combined assault of the group, it would likely be breached sooner or later.

At this thought, he immediately activated the Crimson Dragon Heaven-Scorching Sword and channeled the power of the formation to continue his downward strike.

The Crimson Dragon Heaven-Devouring Sword draws upon the world's pure yang energy, capable of condensing a single Crimson Dragon Heaven-Devouring Sword Qi every 10 1000 years, with its absolute limit being the accumulation of no more than 9 such energies.

Faced with the assault from the crowd, the Void Black Dragon could no longer afford to hesitate. It immediately channeled its energy into the Crimson Dragon Heaven-Incinerating Sword, unleashing 9 consecutive slashes before finally exhausting its power.

"Damn it..."

Seeing that 9 consecutive sword strikes still failed to wound the assembled cultivators, the Void Black Dragon could not help but reveal a look of despair.

On the other side, Star Maiden paled as she withdrew the 7 Mists of Taiji (Magic Treasure), offering a bitter smile. "My spiritual power is completely depleted. What comes next... you must face on your own."

"Rest assured, we shall break this formation."

Eldrin’s voice fell as he shielded the group with the Eldrin Earth Sovereign Bell, then began relentlessly assaulting the formation of Crimson Dragon Island.

The protective formation enveloping Crimson Dragon Island was a supreme-grade immortal array, which in theory could withstand even the assaults of Earth Immortal patriarchs. Yet its flaw lay in the island's deficient spiritual veins—their insufficient energy made it impossible to sustain the formation’s full power over extended periods.

Under the relentless assault of the group, the grand formation's radiance finally began to dim.

After the crowd had been bowing for 7 days and 7 nights, Eldrin watched as the formation’s glow grew increasingly dim. In the end, he mustered his full strength and struck down with a single sword slash.

But when the Sky-Sundering Twin Swords merged as 1, transforming into a blazing white sword radiance that descended upon the mountain, the grand protective formation ultimately shattered with a resounding crash.
