Chapter 2247: Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan Take Action to Slay the Demon Beast, Wang Qingshan Guards Qinglian Island

Qingzhi Island, with its dense vegetation, resembled a colossal bluish-green Ganoderma mushroom when viewed from above. It served as the ancestral home of the Yan family.

A pale blue light barrier enveloped the entire Qingzhi Island. Alarms blared across the island, and a large number of Yan family members rushed out of their homes in a state of panic.

Yan Ruofeng and Wang Tianhua stood solemnly in mid-air.

Hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts were attacking Qingzhi Island, unleashing a deluge of spells that hammered the bluish-green light barrier.

Among them were six fifth-tier demonic beasts. Three were colossal red crabs, adorned with blue patterns on their bodies and wielding pincers over ten zhang wide, that spewed thick crimson flames against the bluish-green light barrier.

The other three were entirely blue-green seagulls. With wingspans exceeding a hundred zhang, their talons resembled enormous bluish-green scissors. They gently flapped their wings, unleashing swirling bluish-green hurricanes that slammed into the light barrier.

With the assistance of the Wang family, Yan Ruofeng had successfully advanced to the Deity Transformation stage. Bai Yuqi had also helped establish two sets of fifth-tier formations on Qingzhi Island. Despite this, Yan Ruofeng was unsure if they would be able to withstand the demonic beasts.

"Quickly, women, children, the elderly, and the infirm, evacuate first!" Yan Ruofeng commanded loudly, instructing the elderly and infirm family members to teleport away first.

In his hand, Yan Ruofeng held a shimmering five-pointed formation plate, emitting a bluish-green glow. The plate was adorned with a floral pattern. As he infused it with spiritual incantations, the pattern on the bluish-green plate instantly brightened. Countless bluish-green runes emerged on the surface of the light barrier, blurring into vibrant bluish-green spirit flowers.

The red crabs brandished their massive pincers, causing the void to vibrate and distort. This generated a massive amount of crimson firelight, which coalesced into thousands of crimson fireballs, suspended high in the air.

Thousands of crimson fireballs subsequently slammed into the bluish-green light barrier. Tremendous explosions erupted as raging flames engulfed it.

The bluish-green seagulls violently flapped their wings, causing the void to vibrate and distort. Swirling bluish-green hurricanes swept forth, striking the light barrier.

A tremendous roar echoed as the bluish-green light barrier twisted and deformed. The bluish-green floral patterns on its surface gradually dispersed, as if they had never existed.

Yan Ruofeng poured a large amount of spiritual power into the formation plate, casting spell after spell, his face growing visibly pale.

The entire Qingzhi Island shook violently as the bluish-green light barrier twisted and deformed.

The defensive power of the fifth-tier formations was relatively strong, preventing the demonic beasts from breaking through for a short while. However, with constant attacks and no retaliation, Yan Ruofeng's spiritual power rapidly depleted.

As time passed, Yan Ruofeng's face became increasingly pale.

The red crabs slammed their colossal pincers onto the bluish-green light barrier, causing it to sag. The barrier appeared faint and flickering, as if on the verge of collapsing.

By this time, most of the Yan family cultivators had almost completed their evacuation.

Accompanied by a loud crash, several tiny cracks appeared on the formation plate in Yan Ruofeng's hand. The cracks grew larger; it was already remarkable that it had held out for so long.

The sea churned violently as a blue shark over a hundred zhang long and a gigantic golden shrimp emerged from the ocean. Both were fifth-tier demonic beasts. The blue shark, with a golden horn on its head, spewed a thick blue beam, while the golden shrimp unleashed golden flames.

After a deafening roar, the bluish-green light barrier shattered into pieces, and numerous demonic beasts surged forward, attacking the Yan family cultivators.

Just then, a rapid zither melody rang out. A bluish-green sound wave descended from the sky, sweeping over thousands of low-tier demonic beasts, all of whom collapsed with their internal organs completely shattered.

A dense barrage of spells rained down like a meteor shower, threatening to engulf Yan Ruofeng and Wang Tianhua.

A large amount of blue water vapor suddenly appeared in the void. After blurring, it transformed into a thousand-zhang-high blue water wall, protecting Yan Ruofeng and Wang Tianhua.

A fierce gust of wind whistled past as a colossal bluish-green seagull suddenly appeared above Yan Ruofeng.

The moment it appeared, ripples spread across the void. A gigantic bluish-green hand materialized out of thin air, lightning-fast, it grabbed the bluish-green seagull. Simultaneously, a blue streak of light pierced the sky, instantly impaling the seagull's head.

"The Ancestors are here!"

Wang Tianhua was overcome with surprise and joy. The only ones capable of effortlessly annihilating a fifth-tier demonic beast were undoubtedly Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

A bluish-green streak of light appeared on the distant horizon, rapidly approaching their location.

Shortly after, the bluish-green streak of light halted. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan stood aboard the Azure Luan Boat, their gazes solemn.

"You two retreat quickly! Leave this to us." Wang Changsheng commanded, explaining that the true horror of a large-scale beast tide lay primarily in the sheer number of low-tier demonic beasts, whose combined magical attacks wielded immense power.

By killing as many low-tier demonic beasts as possible, they could alleviate the pressure.

Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal and raised his hands high. The sea immediately churned violently, and over a hundred colossal water vortexes soared into the sky. Low-tier demonic beasts struck by these vortexes were instantly torn apart, dissolving into a bloody mist.

Wang Ruyan plucked the zither strings, and a rapid melody filled the air as bluish-green sound waves swept outwards. Wherever they passed, large numbers of low-tier demonic beasts lost consciousness and sank to the seabed.

Demonic birds in the sky attempted to launch spell attacks but were directly impaled by the water vortexes.

While Qingzhi Island was under attack, other islands belonging to the Wang family were also assaulted by demonic beasts, with their numbers ranging from tens of thousands to over a million.

As Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan fought on the front lines, Wang Qingshan, Wang Mengbin, Wang Qingfeng, and other family members successively left their residences.

Wang Qingshan remained to guard Qinglian Island, while Wang Mengbin, Wang Qingfeng, and others hurried to the seven subsidiary islands to resist the beast tide.

The Qilin Turtle was not idle either. It flew out of Qinglian Island and floated on the sea surface, emitting deafening roars. Above, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled as a colossal blue thundercloud appeared in the sky.

Thick bolts of lightning tore through the firmament, striking the demonic beasts below.

The Golden Horned Thunder Qilin Beast floated high in the air, with Wang Qingshan sitting on its back, his expression cold.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan were concerned that Wang Qingshan might encounter sixth-tier demonic beasts, so they had instructed him to remain on Qinglian Island and not rush to the front lines.

It was already difficult for the demonic beasts to break through the outer defensive lines, and with seven subsidiary islands blocking their path, it would not be easy for them to reach Qinglian Island.

Wang Qingcheng stood on a steep peak, looking tense. This was the first major challenge the family had faced since its establishment.

The island's defenses were not weak; there were five fifth-tier puppet beasts and three sets of sixth-tier formations. Even if two or three sixth-tier demonic beasts attacked Qinglian Island, Wang Qingshan, by controlling the formations, could resist them for a period.

During the last large-scale beast tide, only two sixth-tier demonic beasts reached this point. The disciples of Zhenhai Palace, relying on their sixth-tier formations, had still managed to repel the demonic beast attacks.

Almost simultaneously, major powers across this sea region were attacked by demonic beasts. Low-tier cultivators converged on larger islands, essentially smaller factions seeking protection from larger ones. Even so, the scale of the beast tide was immense, and many cultivators were annihilated by the demonic beasts before they could evacuate.
