Chapter 221: Guixu Hidden Dragon
Gu Xuan held the Red Flame Flying Crow Gourd and shot out endless rain of fire.

But when the rain of fire fell over Qingming Island, it was blocked by a layer of transparent spiritual light.

Hot and explosive rain of fire shot into the ocean.

The surrounding sea water evaporated and countless thick white mists rose up, making it impossible to see one's fingers when stretching out one's hand.

Seeing this, everyone no longer hesitated.

The owner of Fengyu Tower, Yan Tower, gave a delicate shout, and countless icicles appeared around her.

She opened her mouth and a sword ball emitting cold light floated out of it.

The sword ball seemed to have condensed the power of thousands of miles of ice. As soon as it appeared, a lot of floating ice appeared on the surrounding sea surface.

Others also launched attacks.

For a moment, spiritual arts and talismans flew together, swords flashed sharply, and sword shadows spread across the sky.

Nearly a thousand monks all took action.

After a while, most of the fog dissipated.

But the next moment, the thick white fog above Qingming Island rolled up again and formed a wind and thunder dragon snake that was a hundred feet long.

The dragon-snake had a winding body, covered with countless lightning flashes, and moved by swallowing clouds and wind, with four claws under its feet.

At this time, a vast and deep voice was heard.

"Gu Xuan, my Qingming Island has already been merciful enough by not causing trouble for you, but you actually dared to take the initiative! Do you really not take the power of real people seriously?"

"To tell you the truth, the Grand Master has returned safely. You will never be able to break through this Guixu Hidden Dragon Formation."

Master Yanlou and Gu Xuan looked at each other and couldn't help but frowned slightly.

"This Qingming Island actually has such a powerful formation."

Thousands of people attacked together, but they were not defeated in the first time.

One of the formation masters came out and said.

"Master Gu, this formation can transform into a dragon. There must be a dragon branch on the island, which cannot be broken from the outside. Perhaps we can try to surround it but not kill it, and cut off its source of spiritual power."

"Over time, the power of the formation will definitely be greatly reduced."

Gu Xuan nodded.

"Even though Qingming Island has abundant spiritual energy, it would definitely require a lot of manpower and resources to maintain such a huge formation. They don't have enough manpower and can't persist for a long time."

When everyone heard this, they thought this was the meaning, so they controlled the expenditure of their magic power and symbolically responded with ordinary means, surrounding but not killing.

Sure enough, by noon, the wind and thunder dragon snake that was tumbling in the thick fog gradually lost its momentum, and even its size shrank by half.

Just at this time.

At Gu Xuan's command, countless people started a new round of attacks.

The sky was filled with fire crows, sword lights were as cold as ice, poisonous insects were everywhere, and there were spells such as fireballs and vines.

It covered the sky, making the figures of the wind, thunder, dragon and snake even more illusory.

"My fellow Taoists, watch me strike."

Blue Feather Divine Thunder Deng Ai roared, holding a three-colored hill in his hand, and the next moment the hill magic weapon suddenly grew larger.

It was as if he was holding a mountain in his hand and suddenly pressing down. The wind was raging, the sea was surging, and thunder was roaring.

……

at the same time.

In a hall inside Qingming Island, there were several figures sitting.

After sensing the earth-shaking attack outside, the faces of the people in the hall became even more solemn.

There are not many people on Qingming Island. Most of them are disciples of the three disciples of Lord Qingming, and their cultivation is not very strong.

Especially after Lord Qingming's physical body was destroyed, he seemed to become increasingly decadent.

But the news was blocked and most people were still kept in the dark, thinking that Lord Qingming was still in seclusion.

"Uncle Master, is the Grandmaster still in seclusion?"

Zhuang Guyuan had a big head and a small body. When he heard someone suddenly speak, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Just as I was about to answer, I heard another voice next to me.

"Big Brother, I used a secret method to spy on them. There are many masters here. Gu Xuan and Yan Louzhu are both very powerful. Why don't we go together to ask Master to come out and kill these villains?"

Zhuang Guyuan snorted coldly.

"Junior sister, Master had already told us before he went into seclusion that no matter how big the matter was, we should not disturb his practice. Did you forget that?"

Fairy Yunyin and Zhuang Guyuan do not get along well. She previously teamed up with Heibai Xuanyu and always wanted to compete with him for control of the island.

Now that Hei Bai Xuan Yu is dead, Fairy Yun Yin is unable to stand alone and has shown signs of surrendering.

"Big Brother has always been trusted by Master. Now that Master has spoken, let's wait a little longer."

Zhuang Guyuan's expression was as gloomy as water. Qingming Island was far away overseas, shrouded in white fog, and extremely difficult to find.

How could these people find the exact location of Qingming Island and launch a violent attack right away?

"Could it be that Feitianmen set a trap on me before?"

An idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and then he shook his head.

He had checked several times but found nothing suspicious.

At this time, another disciple rushed in quickly.

"Master, the Feitian Sect and others are attacking fiercely, and a gap has appeared at the southern end of the Guixu Hidden Dragon Formation."

When everyone in the field heard the news, they were in a state of panic and walked back and forth.

"What should I do?"

"I heard that Feitianmen is full of ruthless people, and Gu Xuan is an old scoundrel. Few people who cross him will have a good ending."

"If not, if not..."

Zhuang Guyuan looked at Fairy Yunyin with cold eyes.

"What else?"

Fairy Yunyin swallowed her saliva, fearing that Zhuang Guyuan would kill her on the spot, so she didn't say anything in the end.

Zhuang Guyuan was furious, and when he opened and closed his eyes, countless purple electric sparks appeared around him.

A shadow with huge wings, surrounded by lightning, appeared faintly behind him, making everyone breathless.

He shouted loudly: "What are you afraid of? Even if they have more people and more power, our Qingming Island is a real force. How can we be bullied so easily?"

In fact, he had no idea what would happen, but he knew that in the current chaotic situation, if he could not remain calm, the entire Qingming Island would collapse even faster.

"Brother Nanbei, I order the two of you to quickly go to the South Island and guard the core of the Guixu Hidden Dragon Formation."

"in addition……"

Zhuang Guyuan stood up and glanced at everyone in the field. The lightning behind him became increasingly powerful, as if it was going to break through the roof and head straight for the sky.

"Also, during the war, no one is allowed to disturb the people. If anyone dares to speak nonsense again, they will be killed directly."

Zhuang Guyuan suppressed everyone with the force of thunder, and the surrounding environment became much quieter.

However, the brothers Zhang Nan and Zhang Bei looked at each other, and their expressions changed slightly when they heard Zhuang Guyuan's words.

The two of them only had the early stage of martial arts cultivation, and even if the two brothers worked together, they were not that strong.

The invading enemy is extremely powerful at this moment, and the South Island is the right place to face the enemy head-on.

How could the two of them stop it so easily?

The two brothers' faces changed and they murmured.

"Elder Zhuang, this, this, this..."

The two of them blurted out the word at the same time, but after several attempts, they still didn't say it out loud.

Zhuang Guyuan frowned: "Why? You don't want to?"

Brothers Zhang Nan and Zhang Bei showed a bitter smile on their faces, but still bowed.

"Of course I am willing, of course I am willing."

The two left the hall and went to a secluded corner, where they whispered to each other, and no one knew what they were discussing.

……

"I said that we must not accept these casual cultivators who join us halfway."

"They usually eat our food, drink our drinks, and use our things, but when they encounter danger, they dare not step forward. What's the point of having them?"

In a secret room in the attic.

Zhuang Guyuan looked at Zhang Nan and Zhang Bei who were whispering outside the window, his eyes flickering, and no one knew what they were thinking.

Behind him was the ugly boy.

The young man was calm and composed, and Zhuang Guyuan looked back frequently, as if he was the backbone of Qingming Island.

Obviously, Zhuang Guyuan was not as calm as he appeared to be.

"Master, what should we do now?"

"When water comes, we cover it with earth; when soldiers come, we fight them. I didn't expect these sects to be so bold. Instead of hiding, they attacked in advance."

"But how did he find the exact address of Qingming Island?"

Qingming Island has excellent feng shui, a special geographical location, and is covered by thick fog. It appears in a different place every day, making it difficult for outsiders to find it.

This is the retirement home that Lord Qingming found for himself.
He never thought that an enemy could find this place.

"Xiao Yuan, if there is no other way, prepare for the worst. Compared to human life, a thousand-year foundation and ten thousand-year achievements are nothing."

Zhuang Guyuan was shocked and couldn't believe it, his whole body was shaking.

"Master, what you mean is..."

"That's right. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. You have followed me for many years. Although you are old, you still have a chance to break through to the realm of a real person."

"But Master, this is your foundation. I don't want your years of hard work to go to waste. I can't bear to..."

The boy sighed.

"Fool, do you still remember that I hid a heavy object in the ancestral hall?"

Zhuang Guyuan was shocked and said.

"Master, are you talking about the eight-armed dragon's hand?"

"Yes, that's exactly it."

"I am willing to give it a try. I will never let my master's thousand-year-old foundation be destroyed in my hands."

"You don't regret it?"

"No regrets. Without my master, I would have starved to death in a snowy and dilapidated temple when I was six years old. You are not only my master, but also my father."

Lord Qingming's body trembled slightly. He looked at Zhuang Guyuan, whose head was as big as a bucket, and gently touched his hair.

"Xiao Yuan, thank you for your hard work. I am ashamed of you."

After saying this, he sighed slightly in his heart.

"Master has no choice but to do this. Since you are reluctant to do so, I will let you give it to me once more."

Zhuang Guyuan didn't know what Lord Qingming was thinking, but a warm feeling flashed through his heart.

"Master, don't say that."

But he still couldn't bear it.

"Then the rest of the people on this island will wait."

Lord Qingming smiled coldly.

"The appearance of the eight-armed evil dragon will bring great disaster. These evildoers deserve to be put to death."

……

Ye Yang stood on the broad back of the Sun Beast.

Holding a knife in one hand and a sword in the other, he responded carefully.

Although the wind, thunder, dragon and snake in the sky gradually became illusory, the sharp sword light seemed to be endless and shot straight from Qingming Island.

He raised the ghost-head seven-ring knife and knocked a beam of knife light away.

“Ah! It hurts.”

A scream came from his ears, and Ye Yang looked up.
