Chapter 505: Spirit Pearl Secret Island

Roar!

With a mighty roar, Lei Ming manifested her true form, flew into the sky, and headed straight for Nie Weiheng's palm.

Even the ox‑head leader behind him jumped in fright. In their hearts they silently admired Ye Liuyun. "The Thunder Dragon Beast has advanced so quickly! How many resources must have been given to her! It seems this kid truly values the Thunder Dragon, not sparing her at all!"

When Nie Weiheng saw Lei Ming's power, he instantly regretted it, but the palm he had struck could not be retracted.

Lei Ming didn't care about his palm at all. Her Physical Body was already strong, and after cultivating the Buddha‑Demon Golden Body, it became even stronger. With her Heavenly Gang Ninth Rank realm, she completely ignored the attack from a Martial Cultivator of Heavenly Gang Fifth Rank.

Nie Weiheng's palm fell, failing to even strike Lei Ming's Physical Body, being blocked outright by Protective True Origin and the surrounding Demon Qi.

Lei Ming opened her mouth and, with a "roar," unleashed a sound‑wave attack accompanied by a Blood Thunder, slashing toward Nie Weiheng, and it carried an extremely cold aura.

Nie Weiheng also exerted all his strength, pouring out his entire True Essence to block Lei Ming's Blood Thunder, yet he was still battered to a wreck. Immediately, the icy force froze him solid into an ice statue.

The ice‑sculpted Nie Weiheng, his whole body charred black by the Blood Thunder, held one hand out in front of his face, his head tilted back, maintaining a pose as if trying to dodge the Blood Thunder's strike, making onlookers find it laughable.

Lei Ming then descended onto the platform, regaining human form. At this moment, the platform was so crowded that if her true form fell, it would crush others.

After landing, she made a goofy face at Ye Liuyun, stuck out her tongue, and then stepped back into the Demon Race's ranks.

Ye Liuyun merely smiled, offering no rebuke. His Golden Pupil could already see that Lei Ming's strike was measured—she only froze Nie Weiheng, which would thaw over time, not kill him.

At that moment, the surrounding crowd began to chatter, saying all sorts of things.

"Blood Thunder! Did you see? The omen's prophecy has come true!"

"Is the Demon Race joining the Cangyun Martial Competition? Their team's realms are all very high! And now they even have a Heavenly Gang Ninth Rank Demon Beast!"

"Who's that kid? He even brings a Heavenly Gang Ninth Rank Demon Beast!"

But the Demon Race members didn't offer explanations; they only guessed in secret, and no one spoke up to ask!

Many people started inquiring about Ye Liuyun's background. Some even gossiped, asking about the relationship between Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue.

Lei Ming's appearance made Lie Hongxia uneasy. Fortunately, Lei Ming isn't a fire‑type Demon Beast, so she won't compete for the inheritance. Yet in the race for rankings, she now faces another formidable opponent.

Although she can also fight across ranks, if Lei Ming can as well, she loses her advantage.

The people on the platform once again discussed the Five Great Heavenly Prouds, except this time they also considered Lei Ming.

"It seems this contest for the Heavenly Pride titles will be unusually fierce!"

"That may not be so. It's said the Five Great Heavenly Prouds are all destined great talents with boundless futures; no matter how strong the Demon Beast is, it remains just a Demon Beast."

"So what? It's still a Twin‑headed Shadow Snake, a Monster Beast!"

Ye Liuyun felt even more surprised. "The Cangyun Grand Contest even has Beast Tribes participating?"

But on second thought, he found some sense in it. The Demon Race and Beast Tribes are, after all, also members of this Cangyun Continent. If a fight broke out with the Foreign Tribe Corpse Demons, their strength would inevitably be involved.

In the Northern Region team, Qu Chen Feng finally spotted Ye Liuyun. He had also seen Lei Ming and knew she was Ye Liuyun's pet beast.

He didn't expect Ye Liuyun's current strength to be so great. Even Nie Weiheng of Heavenly Gang Fifth Rank was repelled with a single palm. Moreover, his pet beast had already reached Heavenly Gang Fifth Rank.

At that moment, he also slipped behind a teammate, hoping Ye Liuyun wouldn't notice him. He was especially worried that Ye Liuyun might strike him on the spot.

He thought he was well hidden, not detected by Ye Liuyun. Yet Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense caught his slight movement. With a faint smile, he thought, "Don't be anxious; it's not yet time to deal with you. Letting you only get a minor injury would be too generous!"

At this moment, everyone on the teleportation platform had already stood up. The transfer time was approaching, and everyone waited for the Teleportation Array to activate.

The crowd's attention now focused on the Teleportation Array, finally setting Lei Ming's matter aside, eagerly awaiting the transfer to Spirit Pearl Island.

As the first spatial fluctuation emerged, everyone felt both nervous and excited.

"So many people, transferred all at once?" Ye Liuyun asked Jing Wudi in surprise, using Divine Sense to transmit his voice.

"Indeed! From here you can see how strong the Cangyun Alliance is! My elder brother is also a member of the Cangyun Alliance. If it weren't for his situation, he would have personally brought you here this time," Jing Wudi sighed.

While Ye Liuyun was amazed by the Cangyun Alliance's strength, he also reassured Jing Wudi, saying that as long as he encountered something like life essence, he would surely bring it back.

Immediately after, the Formation's spatial fluctuation came a second time. The young people on the teleportation platform grew tense again.

"After the third spatial fluctuation, the transfer will start immediately!" Jing Wudi transmitted a voice to the four Iron Eagle Sect disciples, urging them not to panic.

The previous three spatial fluctuations were all prompts for the incoming to prepare.

After the third spatial fluctuation, the entire teleportation platform was enveloped by massive energy; the Formation then activated, and Ye Liuyun and the others felt themselves darting swiftly through the void, and after a few breaths, they landed again.

"What a marvelous Teleportation Array, with no dizziness at all!" Ye Liuyun exclaimed.

It was his first time experiencing such a non‑dizzy Teleportation Array. It felt as if he only traversed the void for a moment before arriving at the destination.

"Haha, there are countless wonders! Take another look at this island," Jing Wudi said with a smile.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense and Golden Pupil were now surveying the island.

Although the island lay in the sea, its area was still quite vast. Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense could not encompass the whole island at once.

What was even more marvelous was that the island was dotted with stone pillars of varying heights, scattered irregularly. Each pillar bore carvings of either humans or beasts, and even some Demon Race motifs.

The spiritual Qi within the island was richer than that of the Five Domains Alliance's bases.

"This place is literally a cultivation sanctuary!" Ye Liuyun exclaimed before finishing his observation.
