Li Shiming looked at the dark red rock in disbelief. Through the analysis of the dark red rock by the natal magic weapon IBMz15, it was found that the composition of this material was ordinary rock.
The dark red color is caused by some kind of blood staining it, which results in the dark red color on the rock surface.
It seems that only the ancient dragon clan's methods caused this ordinary rock to undergo such a change.
He couldn't take samples for analysis, and his consciousness couldn't penetrate the dark red rock. The dark red rock was too huge to be accommodated in the computer room, so he was helpless against the dark red rock for a while.
The Phantom Dragon was already lying on the dark red rock, turning its belly on it comfortably.
Li Shiming shook his head when he saw this, and he'd better think of a solution later.
He returned to practice again. Zhao Qingfeng, the living dead outside, waited for a while and then returned to the dragon beast's lair, only to find that the dragon beast's lair was empty.
It seems that the dragon beast group gave up this lair. After he discovered that the dark red rock 'Dragon Vein Source Crystal' could not improve the strength of the Phantom Dragon in a short time, he thought of this dragon beast group.
It's a pity that the opportunity was lost. The dragon beast group moved away. It will not be easy to find them again.
In the huge ocean, even the powerful Nascent Soul cultivators dare not fly freely in the ocean. No one can tell how many powerful spiritual beasts there are in the ocean.
Like this time, Li Shiming dared to come here because Duolsun's map showed that this area had been explored.
Nascent Soul monks are also afraid of accidentally encountering fourth-grade upper-level spiritual beasts or even stronger spiritual beasts in the ocean. Although the chance of encountering them is not high, as long as they encounter them, they are destined to die.
Li Shiming realized that he could no longer take advantage, so he returned to Anyu Island in a hurry.
When returning, the living dead Zhao Qingfeng deliberately took some detours so that the IBMz15 could record this sea area.
Anyway, Zhao Qingfeng, the living dead, was out and about, and the only thing that affected him was the training of the Water and Thunder Nascent Soul. Li Shiming still had four Nascent Souls to cultivate.
Even if the living dead Zhao Qingfeng does not go out, Li Shiming still needs to ensure that a Nascent Soul is awake, so in general, the current travel activities will not have any impact on Li Shiming's cultivation.
It's travel anyway, and by traveling with the living dead Zhao Qingfeng, you can see more scenery without affecting Li Shiming's own cultivation. What a blessing this is.
But Li Shiming didn't know what kind of trouble he had brought to Anyu Island because he stole the 'Dragon Vein Source Crystal' from the dragon beast's lair.
On this day, Anyu Island was as peaceful as usual, and the casual cultivators were all busy with their own cultivation resources.
Off the coast of Anyu Island, the seawater suddenly rolled. A fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast leaned out of the seawater, and its terrifying claws grabbed the seemingly empty place.
The friction sound between the sharp claws and the energy shield of the island-protecting formation on Anyu Island was extremely harsh. The moment the energy shield of the formation was attacked, it went from virtual to solid in an instant.
A huge energy shield enveloped Anyu Island, and at the same time, an alarm sounded in Anyu Island.
This was the signal that Anyu Island was being attacked. The casual cultivators on Anyu Island all looked to the sky.
Some Nascent Soul hunting teams who stayed on Anyu Island took off one after another, but they did not go immediately to see what happened, but waited.
Naturally, what they were waiting for were the three great monks from Anyu Island. The three great monks were the masters of Anyu Island.
"Anyu Island is attacked by spirit beasts, so all Nascent Soul Stage monks can take combat missions, and all mission rewards will be doubled!" A loud voice came out, and then a figure flew out of the mountain.
The person who appeared was none other than the great monk Diao Zhuo from Anyu Island. Although he didn't know much about the situation outside, judging from the current feedback from the island protection formation, it was not optimistic.
The one attacking the island protection formation was a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast. If it was just a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast, he could still deal with it.
But obviously, there will never be just one fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast.
All fourth-grade spiritual beasts are intelligent, let alone fourth-grade mid-level dragon beasts. No fourth-grade spiritual beast would inexplicably attack a gathering place of human monks guarded by a great monk.
The fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast will not do meaningless things. Since it attacked, it must have a purpose, and there is still a certain degree of certainty that it can deal with the three great monks who attacked Anyu Island so directly.
The reason why the great monk Diao Zhuo issued such a high-level mission was because he had no choice. At this moment, the only great monks who could really be dispatched on Anyu Island were him and the great monk Ganbin.
Another great monk is in retreat, and even if he wants to forcefully wake him up, it won't be possible in a short time.
He needs to mobilize as many Yuanying monks as possible to deal with the invading dragon beasts together.
"We have been protected by Anyu Island. Now is the time to repay, and our team will take over the combat mission!" A mid-stage Nascent Soul monk said loudly.
The eyes of this mid-stage Nascent Soul monk and the great monk Diao Zhuo looked at each other, and there was a hidden meaning that no one knew.
In fact, this mid-stage Nascent Soul monk is secretly from Anyu Island, but he is just an undercover person who was sent to monitor the Nascent Soul monks.
If we don't know when a group of Nascent Soul monks acted abnormally, Anyu Island would be extremely passive.
At this time, Nascent Soul cultivator came forward, and the responders were extremely active. The task was doubled and they didn't know what enemy they needed to face.
But there are also many monks who have their own plans. Even the great monk Diao Zhuo has asked for help, so the trouble on Anyu Island is not small.
These monks will not express their thoughts at this time, but will be equally enthusiastic about fighting.
If they say anything detrimental to the protection of Anyu Island at this time, I am afraid that the great monk Diao Zhuo will not let them go without waiting to fight the spiritual beasts.
"I will consider accepting the Nascent Soul monk who has performed well this time as a disciple!" Great monk Diao Zhuo added another bargaining chip.
His words made the eyes of more Nascent Soul monks shine. Although they were all casual cultivators, the part leaked from the hands of the great monk Diao Zhuo was enough for the cultivation of the monks in the early and middle stages of Nascent Soul.
"The Nascent Soul monks who have accepted the combat mission can freely combine and use formations to kill the invading spiritual beasts. I will also go with you!" said the great monk Diao Zhuo, waving his hand.
He was a little anxious in his heart. Even though there was currently only a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast attacking, the island protection formation on Anyu Island was more of a warning, and the defense was not particularly strong.
The reason why the island-protecting formation was not broken at this time was because Brother Ganbin was personally controlling the formation.
The words of the great monk Diao Zhuo caused four Nascent Soul hunting teams to fly out of the island, while the rest of the Nascent Soul hunting teams hesitated.
The words can be extremely high-profile, but if they are allowed to go into battle rashly, especially when the enemy's situation is unclear, they need to consider the degree of danger.
"Why haven't you set off yet!" Great Monk Diao Zhuo said as he looked at the remaining hunting team with a stern look.
This was not a question, but a warning and a threat. He had already sensed the urgency of the situation.
The remaining hunting team flew out of the island despite their reluctance.
These Nascent Soul stage monks are still able to move, but the Golden Core stage and those non-combat monks are powerless at this time and can only wait for fate.
Life or death depends on the outcome of the battle for these Nascent Soul stage monks. In the ocean, once Anyu Island is breached, there will be almost no way for these Golden Core stage and non-combatant monks to survive.
The great monk Diao Zhuo followed behind the Yuanying monk and sent the Yuanying monk to the battlefield as if he were escorting him.
The strange thing is that the Nascent Soul Stage monks in front came out of the island protection formation and did not encounter any attacks.
They also discovered the dragon beast that was attacking the island-protecting formation. The fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast ignored these Nascent Soul monks and continued to attack the island-protecting formation.
It seems that these fourth-grade mid-level dragon beasts do not take these Yuanying monks seriously at all, but this makes the Yuanying monks dare not act rashly for a while.
They would not think that a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast was stupid. There was only one possibility, and that was that this fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast was confident.
The great monk Diao Zhuo was the last to fly out of the island protection formation. At this time, all the Nascent Soul stage combat monks who could be mobilized on Anyu Island in the sky were here.
Before the great monk Diao Zhuo could speak, a Nascent Soul stage monk who was close to the sea let out a scream.
Then came the Nascent Soul monks who were approaching the sea one after another and were attacked without any warning. No Nascent Soul monk could withstand the sudden attack.
Some Nascent Soul monks at the Nascent Soul stage escaped, and some Nascent Soul monks were unable to escape even with their Nascent Souls. The escaped Nascent Souls fled into the distance at extremely fast speeds.
But before he could escape far, he was intercepted by a fourth-grade dragon beast that appeared in the sea.
Brother Diao Zhuo saw many Yuanying monks being attacked. He is still observing the attack of the dragon beast. He needs to know more information.
But he soon discovered something was wrong. As several Yuanying monks were attacked and fell, the morale of the Yuanying monks suddenly dropped to the freezing point.
If they hadn't discovered that the escaped Yuanying was trying to escape, but was intercepted, they would all have wanted to escape at this time.
"Kill!" Great cultivator Diao Zhuo shouted, intending to use his actions to inspire the morale of the Nascent Soul cultivators.
In fact, these Nascent Soul cultivators are all casual cultivators, and they don't have the spirit of a hero for Anyu Island. As long as they can escape, they can survive as a casual cultivator anywhere.
Brother Diao Zhuo's attack was aimed at a fourth-grade low-level dragon beast. He thought clearly that instead of attacking a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast and possibly only injuring it, it would be better to kill a fourth-grade mid-level dragon beast. Lower-grade dragon beasts can better inspire morale.
Only when he launched his attack, a dragon roar came from the sea, and the leader of the Dragon Beast Clan, who was at the peak of the fourth-grade intermediate level, flew out of the sea and blocked his attack.
It is said that the dragon beast at the peak of the fourth grade intermediate level has the strength to match the great monk, but to truly compare the strength of the two, we still have to see how great the great monk is.
Great monk Diao Zhuo is a great monk in casual cultivation, and he is also at the lower level among the great monks.
When facing the fourth-level mid-level peak dragon beast clan leader, he felt an extremely strong threat.
"If you don't take action, if you don't defeat them, you won't be able to escape!" Great monk Diao Zhuo yelled at the Nascent Soul stage monks.
He himself threw four talismans in succession, and at the same time his figure continued to retreat, retreating into the island protection formation.
As soon as he returned to the island protection formation, he began to activate the great monk's spell. The release of this great monk's spell required a lead time of several breaths.
He had only prepared half of the spell, but his eyes flashed with horror, and the half-prepared spell in his hand fell away involuntarily.
All the dragon beasts flew out of the sea, and nearly a hundred and fourth-grade dragon beasts made his scalp numb.
He knew that Anyu Island would never be able to withstand the attacks of so many fourth-grade dragon beasts. Even if there were three great monks present, they would not be able to withstand them.
Great monks like him and Gan Bin have absolute crushing power against mid-level Nascent Soul monks, but facing the fourth-level mid-level peak dragon beasts with extremely strong defense and attack, they can only release the great monk-level ones from a distance. Spells, and dare not fight head-on with the fourth-grade mid-level peak dragon beast.
"Run away!" Brother Diao Zhuo sent a message to Brother Ganbin.
"Escape!" Brother Gambin replied decisively.
Facing such a large-scale attack by the dragon beast group, protecting oneself is the most important thing, and there is nothing that can be done about Anyu Island being breached.
As for the other great monk who was in retreat, they couldn't care so much.
At this moment, there was a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul who was shivering.
Dorsun did not leave his cave. He rented the cave under another identity. After learning that Anyu Island was attacked, he stayed in the cave to watch because he was worried about being retaliated by Li Shiming.
When he discovered that it was a fourth-grade dragon beast that attacked Anyu Island, and he even recognized that the fourth-grade dragon beast was the dragon beast group he betrayed.
He immediately understood that this was the dragon beast group coming for revenge, but he didn't know whether they came to Li Shiming or to him.
He knew how much the dragon beast held a grudge. A monk had a conflict with the dragon beast more than ten years ago. The monk himself had almost forgotten about it, but when he went out once, he was attacked by the dragon beast.
This kind of thing is spread a lot in the world of immortality, which shows that dragon beasts have the ability to remember aura and track.
"What on earth did that guy do? Did he destroy the dragon beast's lair?" Dorsun guessed in his heart.
His guess was not far from the truth. Li Shiming indeed took away the most important treasure from the dragon beast's lair.
Dorsun knew how vengeful the dragon beast was. While he was looking forward to Anyu Island being able to withstand the dragon beast's attack, he was also thinking about how to escape.
Just as he was thinking about it, his eyes widened and he looked at the two figures in disbelief.
These two figures were fleeing into the distance at an indescribable speed. They were none other than Brother Diao Zhuo and Brother Ganbin.
"They actually abandoned Anyu Island!" Dorsun muttered to himself.
Without the help of the great monk Ganbin to control the island-protecting formation, the island-protecting formation was instantly destroyed.
