Feng Feng San Niang heard this, her face showing a few traces of a bitter smile. She tucked the bangs in front of her forehead and said slowly.

"Fellow daoists! It's not that this concubine is unwilling to tell the truth. It's just that there were orders from above not to easily leak the news before arriving at this island. But now that we have arrived here, there is naturally no such restriction. This concubine will tell you the truth!

The demon beast our Six-Linked Hall wants to deal with this time is an 'Infant Carp Beast,' so we had to be cautious!"

"'Infant Carp Beast'?" Qing Yun Suan Yuan and the others changed their expressions greatly and exclaimed.

Han Li watched all this coldly! Although he didn't know what kind of demon beast the "Infant Carp Beast" was, seeing their shocked appearance, he knew that this demon beast was definitely not to be trifled with.

"No wonder your Hall is so careful. If it's this demon beast, it's indeed necessary to be extra careful! If other forces knew about this, who knows what kind of storm it would cause!" Qing Yun Suan Yuan muttered in disbelief. This made Han Li's heart stir when he heard it.

The expressions of the young man surnamed Yan and the bald burly man were uncertain, looking completely flustered.

Only the middle-aged Confucian scholar had an extremely ugly expression, and he said coldly to Feng Feng San Niang:

"You! Who doesn't know that the Infant Carp Beast is a natural water-attribute spirit beast, with extremely powerful water-attribute divine abilities? If it's level six, it's definitely not much worse than an ordinary level-seven demon beast in the sea. You actually used the name of a level-six demon beast to invite me to take action! Are you deliberately deceiving us?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar said, showing anger, looking like he had been greatly cheated.

And the expressions of Qing Yun Suan Yuan and the others finally returned to normal, but they also showed dissatisfaction.

It was just that they were all lone rogue cultivators and didn't dare to easily offend the Six-Linked Hall, so they watched silently to see how Feng Feng San Niang would answer this matter.

"Fellow Daoist Mao, what you said is not right! We!"

"Besides, since you knew that our Hall was willing to use something as precious as a Dust-Descending Pill as a reward, you should naturally have known in your heart that what we were dealing with was definitely not an ordinary level-six demon beast. Otherwise, how could our Hall do a losing business?" Feng Feng San Niang's expression sank, and she retorted without ceremony.

These words left the middle-aged Confucian scholar speechless, unable to say anything for a long time.

Han Li frowned inwardly.

At first glance, what this woman said seemed to make some sense, but Han Li felt very uncomfortable in his heart and couldn't help but look at the other few people.

The other three people clearly had similar views to Han Li, and their expressions were all somewhat unhappy.

But at this moment, Feng Feng San Niang suddenly smiled at Qu Hun and the others:

"Of course, our Hall did this more to keep the secret of the Infant Carp Beast. So before coming here, this concubine already received a promise from above. After this matter is successful, in addition to paying each of you a Dust-Descending Pill according to the agreement, our Hall will also gift each person another one thousand spirit stones as compensation for keeping the secret beforehand. Are you fellow daoists satisfied?"

Hearing the woman say these words, the resentment of Qing Yun Suan Yuan and the others gradually dissipated, and they nodded in agreement with relaxed expressions.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar still seemed somewhat dissatisfied, but the beautiful young woman who was his dao companion whispered something in his ear, which made his expression change slightly, and he remained silent.

Subsequently, everyone scattered on this small island, each finding a quiet place to meditate and rest.

Han Li and Qu Hun found a huge reef by the sea and sat cross-legged facing each other.

Under his deliberate instruction, Qu Hun quickly entered a state of recuperating his energy.

Han Li himself also slowly closed his eyes, wanting to enter meditation.

But after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Han Li frowned and opened his eyes, staring at the surging and passionate waves, feeling somewhat dazed.

For some reason, he felt somewhat restless at this moment, as if some major event was about to happen, making him feel somewhat uncontrollably nervous and uneasy.

After pondering for a long time, Han Li, who still hadn't found any reason, laughed dumbly.

It seemed he was really being a bit neurotic. Although his spiritual sense had always been very useful, with two Core Formation stage cultivators and the "Six-Shield Water Wave Grand Formation" assisting tomorrow, how could they not capture a level-six demon beast?

Although this demon beast seemed very unusual! But a demon beast is a demon beast; no matter how strong its strength is, facing cultivators, it shouldn't have any chance of winning.

After comforting himself with these words, Han Li wanted to force himself into Qi Condensation.

But after a while, his heart still felt heavy, and he couldn't enter the state no matter what.

"Sigh!" Han Li let out a sigh and stood up.

It seemed that if he didn't do something, he wouldn't be able to be at ease!

Han Li looked around helplessly and released his spiritual sense at the same time.

Fortunately! There were no other cultivators nearby.

Han Li nimbly reached into his storage bag, and over a dozen formation flags flashing with faint light and five or six formation plates appeared in his hands; this was a set of "Azure Water Green Armor Formation" deployment tools.

Although this formation was far inferior to the "Inverted Five Elements Grand Formation" and the "Six-Shield Water Wave Grand Formation" to be presided over tomorrow, it was much stronger than ordinary formations. And because of the deployment tools, it was extremely simple to set up.

Han Li didn't hesitate to call Qu Hun, letting him start setting up formation flags and burying formation plates within a range of several dozen zhang around this reef.

Watching Qu Hun's busy figure as he deeply inserted the formation flags into the ground, Han Li felt much more at ease.

He couldn't help but curl his lips, revealing a bit of self-deprecating expression!

"I really am afraid of death to the extreme!"

The next day, before the sky was bright. Feng Feng San Niang gathered everyone together and flew toward a sea area more than ten miles away from the small island.

At the same time, on a sea surface a thousand miles away, a golden light and a yellow light were galloping toward the direction of the nameless small island at high speed.

And on the water surface one or two miles behind them, a large piece of white mist with a diameter of nearly a hundred zhang was chasing rapidly, sticking close to the water surface at the same speed, and faintly emitting the sound of an infant crying.

This sound was extremely desolate, making one's hair stand on end when heard.

"Elder Miao, use a flying sword message. See if they are ready!" In the galloping yellow light, a thick voice suddenly came out.

"Okay!"

Elder Miao in the golden light agreed without hesitation, then his figure flashed and he ran into the yellow light beside him, but at the same time, the golden light on his body turned into a golden rainbow, disappearing in a flash.

And the large piece of white mist behind, seeing this scene, seemed to have been stimulated by something, the infant's crying sound became even sharper, and it began to gradually sound like thunder, and it was getting louder and louder.

"Not good, this beast is going to use the Water-Gang Divine Thunder again, Brother Gu, hurry up and accelerate!" The anxious cry of Elder Miao sounded from the yellow light, seemingly feeling great fear toward the thunder sound behind.

"Rest assured, the speed of my Hunyuan Bowl is not slow!" Just after the thick voice finished saying this, the yellow light accelerated instantly, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between it and the white mist became even greater.

But the white mist didn't seem willing to give up. Amidst the thunder and crying sounds, its galloping speed also increased by a few points, actually carving a long white wave on the sea surface, with no end in sight.

Qu Hun and the others had already stood at their respective formation gates, and everyone had an extra large blue flag in their hands.

This flag was about two zhang long, and its entire body was emitting blue, glowing light, extremely dazzling.

And the six Core Formation late-stage cultivators all had solemn expressions, each separated by a distance of over a hundred zhang, floating on the sea surface while stepping on magic tools, just forming a semi-circular pocket shape.

And Han Li stood behind Qu Hun, watching coldly, and that young woman also stood on the side of the middle-aged Confucian scholar, showing a look of concern.

A moment later, a golden light suddenly broke through the sky and landed on Feng Feng San Niang's hand, attracting the attention of the others.

"Everyone be careful, the Infant Carp Beast is arriving soon! Once this demon enters the grand formation, seal the formation gates immediately." Feng Feng San Niang seemed to have received some information, shouted solemnly to the others, and then released the golden light again, letting it fly into the sky once more.

Han Li's heart tightened, and he stared unblinkingly at the direction where the golden light flew away.

The others also tightened their faces, faintly revealing a sign of a storm about to come.

I don't know how long it had been, but a rumbling thunder sound faintly came from afar, and as this sound grew louder and louder, they finally saw two brilliant rainbows, one gold and one yellow, flying from afar like lightning, while behind them was a large piece of white, as if something was chasing closely.

"Is this the Infant Carp Beast?"

Although Han Li saw clearly that the large piece of white thing behind was just mist, he couldn't imagine what the demon beast hidden in the mist looked like.
