Chapter 58 The Great Victory of Miaoyin Gate
Meanwhile, high in the distance, a massive spirit ship with palaces on its deck hovered among the white clouds.
Although the swirling clouds obscured most of its outline, its enormous form was still strikingly conspicuous against the clear, high sky.
Strangely, the skeleton fleet clearly swept past it, yet the people on board seemed completely unaware of it, as if they didn't see it at all!
"Master, mistress, all the evil cultivators from Whale Corpse Island have entered the Mystic Sound Illusion Array!"
The array sensed a Core Formation aura within the white bone warship beside the central jade bone spirit boat!
A Foundation Establishment female cultivator, dressed in a purple dress, with fair skin like jade and a graceful figure, whose expression was extremely solemn yet still exuded a hint of allure, bowed to Wang Heng and Zhou Yuan to report.
"Heh, this scoundrel is indeed cunning. Instead of using a high-level spirit boat, he hides in an ordinary bone ship."
Wang Heng chuckled lightly, showing no sign of tension despite the imminent battle.
"It seems the news from Kui Xing Island was correct; this thief was indeed seriously injured, otherwise he wouldn't be so cautious."
Seeing that her ambush had succeeded, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but smile, feeling that victory was within her grasp.
Just then, a Foundation Establishment female cultivator dressed in a green dress and with a dignified demeanor hurriedly flew over on her magical artifact.
As soon as she landed on the deck, she reported with some trepidation:
"Master, Mistress, three unorthodox cultivators who practiced Qi cultivation have suddenly escaped from the warship for some unknown reason, and..."
"And what?! Stop beating around the bush!"
Wang Heng disliked surprises, especially at this moment, and shouted sternly.
"They seem to have sensed the Mystic Sound Illusion Array and are fleeing with all their might!"
The female cultivator in the green dress dared not delay and quickly told the truth.
"My lord, we cannot wait any longer; we must act immediately!"
Zhou Yuan believed that Luo Qing and the other two would definitely warn the fleet, and said urgently.
"Alright, I'll go hold them off. My wife, quickly retract the formation, don't let a single one escape!"
The reason Wang Heng was still waiting was because they had maximized the coverage of the Wonderful Sound Illusion Array in order to set up an ambush. To restore its Core Formation power, they had to move the array flags at the edge of the array towards the center.
This step could have been carried out smoothly, since the evil cultivators in the formation were all bewitched by illusions and would only drive the spirit boat to circle around the formation.
But now that an unexpected event has occurred, we have no choice but to act ahead of schedule.
"Disciples of the Wonderful Sound Sect, follow me!"
At his command, Wang Heng no longer concealed his aura. His immense Core Formation power swept outwards, transforming into a dazzling white streak of light that rushed straight towards the skeletal warship containing the Fox-Faced Demon Core.
On the palace spirit boat, dozens of figures took off in response, most of them were late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, and the rest were Foundation Establishment cultivators!
For this ambush, the Miaoyin Sect mobilized almost all of its elite forces!
The female cultivator in the purple dress also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Zhou Yuan:
"Jingmei, take a few disciples and go kill those three evil cultivators who escaped beforehand!"
Zhou Yuan was feeling panicked, feeling that if she let those three evil cultivators escape, the Miaoyin Sect would be in big trouble in the future.
In any case, they brought more than enough people this time.
Just as Fan Jingmei, the female cultivator in the purple dress, was about to accept the order, Zhou Yuan flipped her palm and took out a small pink ball, tossing it to her.
"Master's wife, this is your Heavenly Illusion Puppet! Using it to deal with three Qi Refining evil cultivators is such a waste!"
Fan Jingmei said that, but once she grabbed the pink ball, she couldn't bear to let go.
"Those three are likely somewhat unusual; you must not be careless!"
Zhou Yuan, however, gave him a serious warning.
"I understand! I'll be going now!"
Fan Jingmei put away the Heavenly Illusion Puppet. Although she felt that her master's wife was being a little too cautious, she still accepted the order and left.
Meanwhile, due to the sudden appearance of the Core Formation aura, the evil cultivators' fleet was thrown into chaos, showing signs of breaking up and attempting to escape.
Zhou Yuan focused her mind, quickly formed hand seals, and a pink spiritual pattern immediately appeared on her forehead.
The next moment, the twelve islands below shook simultaneously, and a humanoid puppet holding an array flag emerged from the ground on each one.
A flash of inspiration appeared behind them, and they all sprouted a pair of butterfly wings, waving array flags as they flew towards Zhou Yuan.
Further out, seven small spirit boats emerged from their concealment, with the disciples of the Myriad Sounds Sect already prepared aboard.
As soon as they appeared, the disciples on these ships activated the seven magical instruments: zither, se, flute, xiao, bell, drum, and chime.
Instantly, beautiful music resounded throughout the formation, penetrating the primordial spirits of those evil cultivators, causing them to see one after another charming woman or one after another handsome man.
Not only did she dance seductive dances, but her clothes also became increasingly revealing.
With a deafening roar, a jade flute of emerald green unleashed a sonic wave that shattered a bone warship to pieces.
A black streak of light immediately flew out from the wreckage, fleeing without even looking back!
"Haha, fellow Daoist, please wait! A friend has come from afar, why not listen to a song by me, Wang!"
Wang Heng laughed loudly and chased after him like lightning, casually unleashing several spells.
Any evil cultivator who is struck by this will either die instantly with blood spurting from all seven orifices, or have all their meridians severed, rendering them unable to activate their magic power, and fall into the sea in despair!
"You hypocrites of the Myriad Sounds Sect, if you have the guts, wait until I, the Peak Master, have recovered, and then we'll have a fair and square fight!"
Despite witnessing the enemy slaughtering their own disciples, Fox-Faced Demon Dan dared not linger for a moment.
He knew his injuries best; he had only suppressed them forcibly using a blood sacrifice technique.
Once you go all out, your injuries will immediately worsen, and you won't be able to fight back many times!
In battles at the Core Formation level, the Myriad Sounds Sect holds an overwhelming advantage, and the same is true for battles below the Core Formation level.
Leaving aside those with weak minds who have already fallen into illusions, even the remaining evil cultivators, distracted by the Seven Mysterious Illusions, can only unleash up to 70% of their strength at most.
Moreover, their last shred of strength had just been easily crushed by Wang Heng.
So after only a brief standoff, everyone realized that the situation was hopeless and scattered to escape for their lives.
Among them, Nie Shan and Liu Yueru were the fastest to escape.
Even Nie Shan, whose cultivation level was weaker, was superior!
Before Wang Heng could make a move, a sound transmission talisman flew out of Luo Qing's cabin and landed in his hand.
There is only one character:
"escape!"
"Damn it! Damn it! They actually ran away beforehand, and only now they've informed me!"
Nie Shan didn't know how Luo Qing discovered the ambush, but he knew that even if it meant burning his life essence, he had to survive!
Liu Yueru was able to escape the encirclement entirely because of her astonishing killing power. In a single exchange, she killed a pair of Foundation Establishment Daoist couples from the Miaoyin Sect!
The dozen or so willow-leaf blood blades she wielded were mostly top-tier magical artifacts on par with Han Laomo's Red Thread Escape Needles!
