Sitting at the top, Master Jingde looked around and said:
"Comrades, do you have any other questions?"
The cultivators said nothing.
Infected by Master Jingde's calm mood, the practitioners in the hall also regained their confidence. Taoist surnamed Li raised his hands and said loudly:
"Master, just give the order!"
"Okay! Since all my colleagues have no objections, Jing will give the order here."
Master Jingde sat in the main seat and waved his hand:
"Taoist friends with clear water and black eyes are stationed east of Chiba Island to resist the incoming sea beasts from the east of Chiba Island."
Wuyan is the demon cultivator among the three third-level casual cultivators present. He is a black-eyed toad spirit in the early stage of concentration.
The blue water black turtle and the black-eyed toad spirit raised their hands and praised:
"Bishui (Black Eyes) takes command."
Master Jingde kept talking and continued to order:
"Here, Lei Hao and fellow Daoist Li are stationed west of Chiba Island to defend against invading enemies from the west."
Fellow Taoist Li is the Taoist surnamed Li who just spoke out.
Lei Hao, who was sitting on the right, raised his eyelids slightly and said:
"knew."
His tone was flat and lazy.
However, Taoist surnamed Li stood up and shouted loudly:
"Li obeys the order! The sea beasts are ordered not to enter the 100 meters range of Chiba Island!"
"Okay, with Fellow Daoist Li stationed on the west side of the island, why should I, Chiba Island, be afraid of the beast tide?!"
Master Jingde praised him without hesitation. He said that Taoist Li was very excited and wanted to leave now.
The person at the head, Jingde Zhenren, praised, looked around, and said:
"Here, Hu Binhai Kangli is in charge south of Chiba Island. As for the north of Chiba Island, at Chiba Pier, Jing Mou is in charge personally!"
"We take the order!"
Master Jingde’s arrangement actually took some effort.
For example, Jingde Zhenren himself, the most powerful person, is of course located at the most important point of Chiba Island - Chiba Pier.
Chiba Pier is the natural harbor of Chiba Island and can accommodate a larger number of sea beasts. It is bound to be the most dangerous place, so Jingde Zhenren himself sits here.
The slightly less powerful Blue Water Black Turtle and Lei Hao are located on the east and west sides of Chiba Island. Because the coastlines on the east and west sides are longer, the number of sea beasts facing them is only second to Chiba Pier.
The south side with the least pressure was handed over to Hu Binhai and his wife, who were the weakest.
No one has any objection to Jingde's arrangement.
Of course, being in charge does not mean staying where you are.
Placing the Blue Water Black Turtle, Leo and others around Chiba Island is to prevent the third-order sea beasts from attacking everywhere when the beast tide comes.
Therefore, it is necessary for practitioners at the Zifu Concentration level to be stationed separately to prevent third-level sea monsters.
If there are few or no third-level sea monsters in a certain direction, then the third-level overhaul guarding this direction will definitely have to support those directions with too many sea monsters after dealing with the sea monsters.
To put it bluntly, this arrangement is a flexible arrangement.
The Zifu concentration practitioners stationed in various directions will adjust their response plans according to the situation.
After giving instructions on where to sit at the third level, Master Jingde did not continue to order the casual cultivators of the second and first levels.
Because the casual cultivators of these two realms had already been deployed in various directions in the southeast, northwest and north according to the pre-rehearsed arrangements before today, only the major cultivators from the Concentration Stage of Zi Mansion were required to be in charge.
Master Jingde waited until the cultivators finished digesting this order, paused, looked at where Ye Jin was and said:
"Master Shankui Island, do you know if Taohua Island, Gaogang Island, and Puying Island need to be relocated to Chiba Island?"
Meng Qin from Puying Island and the person in charge of the Gao family from Gaogang Island looked hesitant when they heard this, but did not reply immediately. Instead, they looked at the monkey demon, wanting to see what the monkey demon would answer.
Master Jingde's words once again attracted the attention of everyone in the hall to Ye Jin.
To say I'm not jealous would be an absolute lie.
Putting aside the Mu family, the industries on Peach Blossom Island alone are enough to make people jealous.
Although I don’t know the exact number, there must be at least one million spiritual stones.
Among the casual cultivators present, except for the five leaders of Qianye Hall, Master Jingde, who can take out one million spiritual stones?
Even a toad with black eyes and a Taoist surnamed Li can't do it.
Now that the beast tide is approaching, Chibado needs to concentrate its efforts to defend the main island, and it is beyond the reach of the three defense islands surrounding Chiba Island.
If the three islands are moved to Chiba Island, then the resources and spiritual objects on the island will definitely be swallowed up by the beast tide, leaving a dead island.
Gaogang Island and Puying Island don't matter, the important thing is Peach Blossom Island, whether it is the third-order spiritual veins on the island or the hibiscus peach trees, they will definitely not survive.
Therefore, many people secretly gloated and were happy to see this happen.
If you can't get it, destroy it, that's all.
Facing the gazes from the cultivators, Ye Jin looked calm, without squinting, and cupped her hands towards Master Jingde and replied:
"Thank you for your kindness, Taohua Island will not cause trouble to the real person. With Taohua Island by your side, I can also share some of the pressure on Chiba Island."
Upon hearing the monkey demon's refusal, Meng Qin quickly stood up and said respectfully:
"It's the same with Danying Island."
The person in charge of the Gao family on Gaogang Island who was sitting opposite also stood up quickly:
"And my Gao Gang one too!"
Master Jingde nodded calmly and did not force it. After all, as Ye Jin said, with three islands on the side, they could actually share some of the pressure of the beast tide.
"In this case, all fellow Taoists, please go back on your own. The safety of Qianye Island is entrusted to you!"
"Here! Let's leave!"
Ye Jin followed the flow of people and walked out of the reception hall. From time to time, some casual cultivators came to pay a visit. They looked familiar. With Ye Jin's current status, although he was not yet a Concentrating Demon, he was no less good at it.
"Wait a moment! Master Shan Island, please wait a moment!"
After leaving the reception hall, Ye Jin was stopped by a shout.
Looking back, I found that it was Meng Qin from Puying Island and a middle-aged man who came together. This middle-aged man was the person in charge of Gaogang Island's participation in the council. His cultivation level was the same as Meng Qin's, and he was both Foundation Establishment Seven. layer.
The two trotted to the monkey demon, and the middle-aged man took the lead in clasping his fists and saluting:
"Gaogang Island Gaoqiu, I have met the owner of Shan Island."
If it weren't for the distance just now, Gao Qiu would have been fawning over the mountain like Meng Qin.
Now that the meeting was over, he immediately roped in Meng Qin to make friends.
Because Meng Qin didn't get a definite answer from Ye Jin, he was unsure about it. He immediately agreed with Gao Qiu's proposal to discuss with Ye Jin, and then the scene unfolded in front of him.
"Fellow Taoist Gao, you're polite." Ye Jin nodded slightly.
Meng Qin, who was standing by, knew that Ye Jin didn't like to mince words or make indirect greetings, so he begged directly:
"Shan Island Master, Meng is not polite. Fellow Taoist Fellow Gao came here this time just for the assistance he just provided in the hall."
"I only hope that Lord Shankui Island, you can take care of our two families within your ability during the beast tide."
Speaking of this, Meng Qin did not wait for the monkey demon to recover and immediately said:
"Of course it's not for nothing to call the island owner for help. As long as it's a third-level sea beast, whether it's repelled or killed, our two families will pay you, the island owner, 200,000 spiritual stones for each one."
This limit was studied by Puying Island and Gaogang Island themselves.
For the two guardian islands, as long as there are not too many sea beasts below the third level, they will not pose much of a threat to them with formation defense.
The only ones that can pose a threat are the third-level sea beasts.
The third-level overhaul arranged by Jingde Zhenren is to defend Chiba Island. Without contact with the crisis on Chiba Island, it is impossible to take the initiative and leave Chiba Island and assist their two defense islands.
If you don't rescue others, you won't say anything.
Who told them not to move to Chiba Island for refuge?
Of course, for both families, the fourth-order sea monster is definitely a greater threat.
But if a fourth-level sea beast attacks the two guardian islands, then it doesn't matter to them. Unless the ancestor of Jiedan comes in person, no one can save them.
Qianye Island can only resist the fourth-order sea monster by relying on the formation and the favorable location. If the ancestor of the Pill Formation does not come out, even if the five Qianye Hall leaders come out together, they will not be able to stop a fourth-order sea monster, let alone kill it. killed.
After Meng Qin's words fell, Gao Qiu on the side also repeatedly agreed. Now that the two families are in the same spirit and are facing the same situation, they cannot help but unite.
Facing the earnest gazes of Meng Qin and Gao Qiu, the monkey demon did not recover immediately, but began to think thoughtfully.
For Ye Jin, the sea beasts at the early stage of the third level were nothing to him. Even without the help of [Demon Slayer], he thought he could easily kill them.
Although the mid-level third-level sea beasts seem to have stronger flesh and blood, they have the power of [Demon Slayer], coupled with the extremely powerful [Fire Dragon Bullet], it should not be difficult to kill them.
You can't tell whether a late-level third-level sea beast can kill or repel it. You won't know until you try it.
As for the third level peak sea beast...
Well, this is probably unlikely.
In terms of defensive power, the third-level peak sea beast is already equivalent to a demon cultivator with perfect concentration or a human body with perfect Zifu.
Even if Ye Jin is equipped with a [Demon-Slaying] weapon, it would be difficult for anyone to cross the four realms and kill the enemy.
Slaying demons is a skill, not an immortal method. Even if it is an immortal method, it must be based on one's own hard strength. Being able to ask Ye Jin to kill the mid-level third level with half a step of concentration, or even repel the late third level, is a huge enhancement. .
If he can still fight against the third level peak, then this demon slayer probably cannot be exchanged for fourteen strands of yellow silk and 600% orange silk.
Even so, Ye Jin's combat power against the beast tide is quite strong.
Unknowingly, he was able to be as strong as Hu Binhai and his wife, the leaders of Qianye Hall.
In this way, as long as the third-order sea beasts attacking Gaogang Island and Puying Island are not the third-order peak, then Ye Jin's current combat power will at least be able to repel them, and there is a high probability that they can be killed.
Based on the calculation of 200,000 spiritual stones for a third-level sea beast, it was a sure profit for Ye Jin.
Moreover, he has [Blood Shadow Escape] and the best spiritual weapon [Cloud-Stepping Boots]. As long as his demonic power is not exhausted, he is not afraid of being attacked by sea beasts!
Even if the demonic power is exhausted, it will be okay.
Don’t forget, Ye Jin’s seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques, in addition to [Slaying Demons], also includes [Entering Water] that he redeemed earlier!
Even if he falls into the sea, Ye Jin's combat power will not be weakened at all. Breathing underwater will make him return to the sea like a fish in water.
With a body as powerful as a top-grade spiritual weapon, Ye Jin was not afraid of being bitten by first- and second-order sea beasts in a short period of time.
Therefore, Ye Jin is actually not in danger as long as he is not surrounded by several third-order and above sea beasts.
Not to mention that by killing sea beasts, it is possible to obtain sea beast organs that can refine Qi threads.
For Ye Jin, as long as the safety of Taohua Island is ensured, it will be a sure profit for Ye Jin to lend a helping hand to rescue Gaogang Island and Puying Island!
Thinking of this, Ye Jin nodded with a smile and replied affirmatively:
"Fellow Taoists, please rest assured that we, Peach Blossom Island, will definitely not ignore death if we are within our means."
"Thank you so much, Master Shan Island, for your great kindness!"
Meng Qin and Gao Qiu received Ye Jin's affirmative reply, and they all expressed gratitude and expressed their gratitude.
The other casual cultivators around, especially the third-level casual cultivators, watched the scene indifferently. They even wished they could see the joke of Ye Jin and others. If the three islands of defense were destroyed by the sea beasts, they would probably just applaud and cheer. ,gloat.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Ye Jin said that he had taken the first step and left.
After all, Peach Blossom Island currently lacks his powerful combat power, and its defense is empty, which makes Ye Jin feel uneasy.
Walking on the deserted street, Ye Jin was about to get up and fly.
suddenly.
A clear call sounded from behind the monkey demon.
"Fellow Shankui?!"
There was a hint of surprise in his tone.
The monkey demon turned around and saw a familiar figure coming into view.
This person is thin and petite, wearing a black cloud skirt, with a delicate and pretty face. He is none other than Ye Lingyun, an unknown female cultivator from the Purple Mansion who had some interactions with Ye Jin and suffered severe damage to her soul.
After ten years, when I met Ye Lingyun this time, I found that this woman's complexion was much better than ten years ago.
His face was as pale as a sheet, and he looked like he was about to die.
Looking back now, his face is rosy and his aura is long and thick, as if his soul's injuries have been healed and his strength has returned to its peak.
Ye Jin secretly used Zhanzhan Qi Technique to look at it, and found that he could not see through the woman's cultivation, and could only find a spiritual mass the size of a foundation.
But how could Ye Lingyun, who had recovered from her injuries, be a foundation-building monk?
There is only one possible outcome.
Ye Lingyun must have practiced a hidden cultivation method similar to the "Turtle Breath Condensing Qi Jue".
Even Ye Lingyun's breath-holding technique was of a higher level, and even Ye Jin's Qi-gazing technique couldn't be seen through for a while.
Ye Jin could only express helplessness about this.
No matter what, "Qi Watching Technique" is only a third-level technique after all. The level is not low but not high either.
When Ye Jin was young, the cultivators she saw were basically only level one or two. The highest level could only build a clear foundation, and the Qi Watching Technique was enough to cope with it.
But now that Ye Jin is stronger, the cultivators she faces are at least the third level, and behind them are even the fourth-level pill-forming ancestors.
If you want to see through others with a mere third-level Qi-Watching Technique, you can only hope that others have not practiced the Stealth Technique, or that if they have practiced it, their level is not as high as the Qi-Watching Technique.
But this probability is extremely low.
If a third-level major cultivator sneaks up on him with hidden cultivation, he may not be able to detect it even with the qi gazing technique...
From this point, Ye Jin knew that it was time to find a child's secret technique that was higher than the Qi-Watching Technique.
Or maybe see if you can pick out a child's secret technique from the [Seventy-two Earthly Evil Techniques].
But now that Ye Jin is not angry enough, this matter can only be left to the future.
Ye Jin's above thoughts only lasted for a short moment. Seeing Ye Lingyun face to face, he smiled and politely handed over his hand:
"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Ye, long time no see."
"Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect to meet you again, fellow Taoist Shankui, after ten years."
Ye Lingyun's eyes were full of emotion. If Ye Jin hadn't exposed her whereabouts, she would have been chased to death by her enemies.
Although her whereabouts were not exposed because she exchanged the "Shocking Thorn", Ye Jin could have received the "Shocking Thorn" and then changed hands to expose her whereabouts, but the result was not.
From this point of view, it at least proves that fellow Taoist Shankui is a person who keeps his promises. This quality is very important in casual cultivation.
Ye Lingyun said, looking at the monkey demon up and down. When he saw that the monkey demon's aura was solid and thick, and the demon aura was even stronger than the concentration, he even praised:
"I didn't expect that in just ten years, fellow Daoist Shankui, you would be promoted to the point where you are no weaker than my concubine."
She was the one who witnessed Ye Jin's strength back then. He was a genuine middle-level transparent person. It took ten years to go from middle-level transparent person to half-step concentration. This would be unnatural for a human cultivator, let alone a demon cultivator who is slower in cultivation. .
"Fellow Daoist Ye is overly praised. Shan is just a little lucky."
Ye Jin smiled faintly, not wanting to talk too much about this topic. He changed the topic and asked with a puzzled face:
"Fellow Daoist Ye, how come you are here?"
Ye Lingyun smiled awkwardly and said somewhat unnaturally:
"I just recovered not long ago. When I was about to leave tomorrow, I unexpectedly encountered a wave of beasts that blocked the island. Now there is no official ultimatum, but I can't get out."
Ye Jin nodded slightly. As early as ten years ago, Ye Jin knew that Ye Lingyun's enemy must be one of the five leaders of Qianye Hall. As for which one he was, he did not know for the time being. Now, the important place on the island is heavily controlled by Qianye Hall.
It would be difficult for a stranger like Ye Lingyun, who is a stranger and has no identity, to get out.
In particular, Chiba Island's [Earth Fire, Sky Wind Formation] is fully activated, and the formation contains part of the detection function, which may expose her own true cultivation level.
This is why Ye Lingyun didn't dare to leave quietly.
He could only disguise himself as a second-level casual cultivator and stay on Qianye Island, waiting for the beast tide to pass.
Thinking of this, Ye Jin suddenly felt something in her heart.
He suddenly thought that Ye Lingyun was a genuine Zifu monk after all, and his combat power was probably second only to the leader of Qianye Hall, and might even be stronger than Hu Binhai and his wife.
With such combat power, if they were invited to Peach Blossom Island, wouldn't the safety of Peach Blossom Island be even more secure?
After thinking about this, Ye Jin did not mince words and invited him directly:
"Fellow Daoist Ye, now that the beast tide has arrived, even if you, Daoist Daoist, you can't go anywhere except Qianye Island."
"There are risks in staying on Chiba Island. How about going to Peach Blossom Island with Shan? Peach Blossom Island is Shan's chassis. Apart from our own people, there are no other casual cultivators."
"Of course, I won't ask you, fellow Taoist, to help you fight against this beast tide. No matter whether you take action or not, fellow Taoist Ye, I will give you two hundred thousand spirit stones to show your sincerity."
"In addition, if you encounter danger, fellow Taoist, you can also escape to Chiba Island by taking the large spiritual ship on the island. There is a fourth-level defensive array on the spiritual ship. Even the fourth-level sea monster cannot break through it in a short time. This is enough for fellow Taoist You escaped."
"I wonder what you think, friend?"
Ye Jin finished speaking in one breath and waited for Ye Lingyun's reply.
This matter is of great benefit to Ye Lingyun. Anyway, staying on Chiba Island will only increase the risk of exposure. It is better to hide on Peach Blossom Island, where you can avoid the enemy's sight, have a place to temporarily avoid the beast tide, and even get a fortune You can earn spiritual stones, so why not?
Ye Lingyun hesitated for almost half a second, then nodded and replied:
"Okay! Since Taoist Brother Shankui invited me, I will go to Peach Blossom Island to live with you. During this time, I will bother you, Taoist Shankui."
Ye Jin was overjoyed and laughed heartily and said:
"Don't bother me, don't bother me. With your help, Fellow Daoist Ye, I will have no worries on Peach Blossom Island!"
