Chapter 199: Chapter 185: Formation Battle with the Exotic Beast

After finishing all this, Li Fan’s face turned pale, panting heavily.

“I request all of you to lure these beasts to the vicinity of the array I have set up.”

Li Fan communicated through telepathy.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator named Huan Sui nodded, “You have worked hard, friend. Leave the rest to us.”

It was well known that the path of arrays was arduous and obscure.

Studying them required a significant amount of time.

If the level of his array abilities was high, it was reasonable for him to be weaker in actual combat.

Moreover, they hadn’t really expected this reinforcement to do much, but to be able to set up so many effective arrays at once was a pleasant surprise.

Huan Sui took out a small drum, and gave it a sharp bang.

Suddenly, a roar like that of an ancient ferocious beast emanated from the drum, spreading out in all directions.

On Wanlai Island, the idle headless exotic beasts lying on the ground all rose abruptly, looking towards the direction of Li Fan and the others.

Then, they beat their chests as if they were excited.

Huan Sui and his four companions stood in formation, calmly facing the tide of exotic beasts.

The distinctive items of the five Foundation Establishment cultivators appeared, five swords of different shapes.

The lights of the swords interlaced, forming a sort of sword array.

Any exotic beast that entered was annihilated by the sword light.

Under the searing flames created by the [Celestial Spirit Flame Dragon Array], they turned into ashes.

The drumming continued, like a death charm, drawing the beasts to come and die in droves.

The team of five from Heavenly Transformation functioned like a meat grinder, ruthlessly and efficiently harvesting their lives.

Slowly, the death of many exotic beasts caused a sense of unease among the group.

They began to counterattack.

“Roar!”

The headless monsters pounded their chests one after another, their giant mouths wide open, and roared in unison.

Invisible sound waves converged above Wanlai Island, forming a substantial fist shadow.

The red fist shadow suddenly pounded towards the sword array of the five.

“Bang!”

At the same time, Huan Sui and the others spat out a mouthful of blood, their faces showing shock.

The five swords trembled slightly, and the sword array was confused.

A considerable number of red fur-beasts took advantage of this opportunity, broke through the blockade, and killed in front of the five.

Although they were easily slaughtered, the faces of the five were not as relaxed as before.

Seeing this, Li Fan knew he couldn’t slack off too much.

His face became serious, and he took out several beast bones from his storage ring and laid out a new array.

This time, as the fist shadow formed from the many red fur-beasts’ howls was about to take shape, there suddenly came many discordant, ear-piercing metallic friction noises mixed in.

Like clean water mixed with mud, it became murky and unclear.

The fist shadow made up of the red fur-beasts’ roars became blurry after the mixture of the strange noise, diminishing its power significantly.

It was easily blocked by the sword array of the five.

Huan Sui and the others showed joy, “Friend, you have a good technique!”

But Li Fan just waved his hand, his face pale, looking like he’s on his last leg.

The balance of victory once again tilted towards the team of Heavenly Transformation.

Hundreds and thousands of headless exotic beasts were massacred in succession.

But their numbers were just too many.

The number that the team of Heavenly Transformation slaughtered compared to all the red fur-beasts on the island was merely a drop in the bucket.

Perhaps if they continued like this, with the [Soul Gathering] array replenishing their spiritual energy, as long as they had enough time, they would slowly be able to complete the task.

However, after half a day when the number of their dead companions reached a certain level, the red fur-beasts found that their roaring fist shadow was ineffective.

They stopped their roars.

Even the reckless charges stopped.

Seeing this, Huan Sui was puzzled.

They struck the small drum continuously, attempting to attract the red exotic beasts’ attention again.

However, the drumming, once irresistibly enticing, was now ineffective.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

They stopped their attack and instead began beating their chests in unison.

The sound, resonating and amplifying, grew louder and louder.

Li Fan sensed that something was wrong. Even though he launched the pre-set up [Array of Tangled Muddied Waters] in time, it couldn’t make much of an impact in front of this grand symphony.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhengji and Du Xingchang, who had been watching the battle all this while, finally decided not to stand idly by.

Heavy snow started falling again between heaven and earth.

The intensity of the symphonic sound was absorbed by the whispering snowflakes, which suddenly decreased it a lot.

A strong wind blew through.

As it swept up heaps of snow, it also blew off the petals of blooming red plums glowing against the snow.

The petals danced with the wind, like deadly blades.

As they drifted past each exotic beast, they quietly snatched away their lives.

It was clear that when two mid-stage golden core cultivators joined forces, these red exotic beasts, who were only at the foundation establishment phase and acted purely on instinct, didn’t stand much of a chance to resist.

However, Jiang Zhenji and Du Xingchang seemed to be making a point of not going too far.

There wasn’t any wholesale slaughter, only a slight reduction in the power of the symphony played by the red exotic beasts.

They didn’t completely prevent its birth either.

Thus, amidst the increasingly urgent and loud beating sounds.

A giant red exotic beast phantom slowly began to take form.

The oppressive feeling emanating from its phantom was just slightly weaker than Jiang Zhengji.

“It’s at the golden core stage!”

Li Fan and the other five members of the Heavenly Transformation squad turned serious.

Even though it seemed to be lacking when compared to a real golden core realm beast.

But it was certainly far beyond the realm of the foundation establishment beasts.

However, after this golden core giant beast revealed itself, it didn’t immediately launch an attack towards Li Fan and his team.

Instead, it picked up one of its own kind from the ground, put it in its mouth, and started chewing intensely.

The countless red exotic beasts on Wanlai Island, seeing their same kind being eaten, not only didn’t feel afraid, but emitted strange calls of excitement instead.

The golden core giant beast, without any etiquette, continued to devour its weaker kind.

Gradually, its phantom began to solidify.

It seemed, with the increase in the number of its kind eaten, it could actually transform from a phantom to reality!

Jiang Zhengji and Du Xingchang stood with their arms crossed and watched the development of things impassively.

However, Huan Sui became anxious: “If we wait for the giant beast to solidify from being a phantom, its strength will be comparable to a real golden core stage cultivator; even if all of us fight desperately together, there’s no guarantee of victory! ”

Another person chimed in, “That’s right, we can’t wait any longer!”

Li Fan nodded in agreement, “I can set up the [Backwater] array as the last resort, to lend a hand to all friends here!”

He then took out array layout materials from his storage ring.

In a short while, the [Backwater] array was set up fully.

The Heavenly Transformation squad of five boasted an immense surge of momentum.

“The array can only last for about the duration of a tea break.”

Li Fan, pale and weak, said.

He seemed to have exhausted a lot of mental energy.

Huan Sui and the rest exchanged glances and nodded.

“If we can’t defeat that giant beast, even if we manage to escape with our lives, we’ll lose the qualification for promotion. ”

“There’s no retreating from this, we can only give our all!”

“Attack! ”

With grim determination on their faces, relying on each other, they became as sharp as a sword.

And they fiercely launched an attack on the golden core giant beast..
