Chapter 510: Propping Up the Floating Island (Part Two)

Lu Zhou looked back at Little Yuan’er and ordered, “Yuan’er, protect Conch . ”

“Mhm! Don’t worry, master!” Conch was wearing the Cloud Feather Raiment, coupled with her protection, unless a grand cultivator attacked them, they were in no danger at all .

The instant the Formation shattered, many cultivators from the seas faraway above Penglai Island charged toward the island . Looking down from the skies, they seemed like ants .

Madam Huang extended her palm and shot toward the skies . She looked down from above the floating island . At this moment, she noticed the island on which Lu Zhou was at merely contained a small number of cultivators… With the barrier shattered, the cultivators lying in wait outside the four islands had come out of hiding to make their moves .

There were hundreds of cultivators emerging from each island .

“Penglai disciples, hear me! Fend off the enemies!”

“Understood!”

The umbrella-wielding cultivators took flight . Umbrellas shot toward the four directions .

The battle started abruptly .

Madam Huang looked at the floating island and sighed softly . “Dear husband… This is all I can do . ”

The floating island was originally 100 meters above the four islands . Currently, it was only 20 meters from the sea’s surface .

Maniacal laughter rang from the floating island at this moment . “Madam Huang, don’t blame the others . There aren’t any real friends in this world! Go, my brothers!”

Penglai Island had always been removed from the outside world and rarely interacted with other people . They had no friends to help them . Even if there were, who could guarantee they would not be stabbed in the back at the crucial moment?

Ma Qing bowed at Lu Zhou . He knew Lu Zhou was the only one who could do something . “Old Senior Ji… Please do something!” Even if Huang Shijie was here, he could not have possibly turned the tides of the battle .

The cacophonous sounds of battles rang from the four islands .

The death toll was rising . Many low-rank cultivators fell into the sea, and their blood stained the sea red . The originally pristine waters were stained red .

Lu Zhou stood next to Little Yuan’er and Conch . Without the Peak Trial Card, it was not practical to try to take down these many ravenous wolves with other item cards and the Heavenly Writing’s powers alone . Moreover, these people had gone wild from their greed . They were beyond reasoning . Unless he could somehow gather all the cultivators in one place, it was rather impossible to take all of them down at once with the Heavenly Writing power .

Rumble!

The floating island sank another ten meters .

Lu Zhou looked up . The huge island that spanned 1,000 square meters blotted out the sun!

It was too close . The pressure made it difficult to breathe .

The frenzied cultivators flew recklessly toward the floating island .

“Ma Qing… Bring your people to the west,” Lu Zhou ordered .

Ma Qing was delighted when he heard Lu Zhou’s words . He led his disciples and shot toward the island in the west at once .

Up to 1,000 sword Formations flew toward the frenzied cultivators like schools of fish in the sea .

An intense battle unfolded in the sky .

Meanwhile, Madam Huang stood on the floating island . Her expression was slightly blank .

At this moment, Lu Zhou pushed away from the ground and flew toward the floating island .

Suddenly, a voice rang in the air . “Madam Huang… You’re as attractive as ever!”

Lu Zhou turned to look . It was a middle-aged cultivator who had spoken . He sent a palm strike toward the cultivator .

Boom!

A light blue palm seal shot out and struck the middle-aged cultivator . He dropped at once into the sea with a splash .

As Lu Zhou flew, he saw the floating island was in chaos . It was nearly impossible to tell who was from which sect . Everyone was busy looting the island .

Lu Zhou continued flying upward . If it was possible, he did not want to use the Heavenly Writing’s power . It was not an issue for a Two-leaf Nascent Divinity realm cultivator to kill cultivators below the Nascent Divinity realm .

Madam Huang looked down . When she saw Lu Zhou flying toward her, an expression of surprise appeared on her face . She was uncertain about Lu Zhou’s stance . Therefore, she quickly raised the hand that was holding onto the heavenly scroll and loudly said, “I repeat, the moment the floating island sinks, the heavenly scroll will be destroyed as well!”

The Penglai Heavenly Scroll burst forth with radiance as her soundwave rolled into the surroundings .

“Madam Huang! The heavenly scroll is mine!”

“Mine!”

Dozens of Divine Court realm cultivators flew toward the floating island . If this was in the past, they would even have the chance to get so close . Alas, without the Formation and barrier, the floating island was defenseless .

At the same time, dozens of Ten Worlds avatars appeared as well .

Lu Zhou frowned slightly . ‘What a pain!’ He joined his palms together, and there was a flash of blue light .

“Scram!” A soundwave rippled out from Lu Zhou into the surroundings and echoed in the air .

This was the power of speech .

The sound technique sent the dozens of cultivators reeling back like a flurry of hurricanes . They spat out mouthfuls of blood .

Those who were watching from afar paled in fright .

“Forget about Penglai Island . Let him have the Penglai Heavenly Scroll . ”

The cultivators were not fools . They would not face a powerful elite head-on or fight him for the heavenly scroll .

At this moment, Lu Zhou landed next to Madam Huang . He extended his hand to her and coldly said, “Give it . ”

Madam Huang turned pale, and her body tensed .

Lu Zhou saw her frightened expression and said, “With me around, this won’t be the end yet . ” His wizened palm was still extended before Madam Huang .

It was normal for her to be skeptical and wary . After all, she could no longer tell who was a friend or a foe .

Madam Huang glanced at the four islands that were all in chaos . She closed her eyes as a tear ran down her cheek . She placed the heavenly scroll in Lu Zhou’s hand .

“Ding! Obtained the Open Earth Scroll . Reward: 3,000 merit points . ”

As Lu Zhou had expected, it was the Open Earth Scroll! Lu Zhou’s heart stirred as he struck with his palm . The Earth Scroll shattered! The outer cover was reduced to debris that scattered in the air .

For a time, everyone was stunned . The heavenly scroll was destroyed?

Madam Huang’s eyes widened as she asked in a trembling voice, “W-why?”

Lu Zhou had no wish to explain himself . The Open Earth Scroll automatically appeared in the system dashboard . Keeping its physical form would only be troublesome .

The debris fluttered away like shining butterflies .

Rumble!

The floating island touched the waters!

A huge wave rippled outward .

Little Yuan’er grabbed Conch and flew into the air .

The moment the floating island sunk into the water, Lu Zhou activated his protective energy and kept the seawater at bay .

Alas, the sinking of the floating island was the final straw that broke the camel’s back for Madam Huang . Penglai Island’s hope was gone . Without hope, what was the point of her living? How would she face her husband? She sighed softly and no longer resisted . ‘Just as well . Death ends all troubles and worries . ’

When the seawater surged toward them, a palm seal sent her flying upward .

“Bastard!” Madam Huang exclaimed in shock . She flew up above the sea’s surface . When she looked down again, Lu Zhou who was standing in his own energy shield was swallowed by the sea .

“Old senior!” Madam Huang was shaken . At this moment, her hope was rekindled . The old senior had saved her without any regard for his safety . She would be an ingrate to throw away her life . She circulated some of her Primal Qi as she looked at the floating island disappearing beneath the waves . She was slightly stunned .

“The floating island is gone! The four islands will soon sink as well! Quickly!”

When they saw the floating island sink, the Qingyun Sword Sect’s Ma Qing led his disciples on their swords and looked down at the four islands . “What a shame… I’ve done all I could . ”

“I’m sorry, Madam Huang… I’m sorry, Island Master Huang!”

Madam Huang no longer cared . ‘Loot all you want . It’s better for them to end up in your hands than at the bottom of the sea . ’

In the skies, Conch looked at the floating island that was sinking into the sea and mumbled, “Luo Yu…”

Little Yuan’er said, “Where’s my master?” She was in a dilemma . She wanted to dive into the sea to save her master, but she could not leave Conch alone . What should she do?!

Suddenly, a Daoist nearby launched himself from the ground, conjured up a group of energy swords, and charged at Little Yuan’er . “Since you killed a member of our Taixu Academy and took the Golden Taixu Mirror away from us, I’ll have your disciple’s life as payment!”

Sneak attack?

This elite could no longer refrain from attacking .

The cultivators nearby turned to look despite themselves . They were hit with a sudden realization . How could Jiang Lizhi, a mere elder, bring the Golden Taixu Mirror with him and speak so arrogantly to the old senior?
