Hearing Fairy Long Yue's reminder, everyone hurriedly responded with a smile and then went together to deal with the demon king's corpse on the sea surface.

Since leaving the sea area where they were looking for the "Silver Tiger Shark," what made everyone somewhat surprised was that their luck suddenly became good. In just over ten days, they had gained more than ten second-grade demon beasts and now had hunted a Jin Dan early-stage demon king.

Just the materials on these demon beasts, if exchanged for spirit stones, would add up to about forty or fifty thousand spirit stones. Even if everyone returned now, the harvest could be considered quite good.

Demon beasts are extremely good at hiding their figures in the sea, especially those Jin Dan demon kings whose spiritual intelligence has been opened. As long as they find that the situation is not right, they will immediately escape into the deep sea. Even if they can be discovered, it is not so easy to capture the other party.

Not everyone who comes to the outer sea in a demon hunting team can have a harvest when they return. Every year, many unlucky cultivators will encounter high-tier demon beasts they cannot deal with or beast tides gathered by many demon beasts when hunting demons, leaving their lives in this deep sea.

Through the contact with everyone these days, Song Song Qingming also had some understanding of the few people traveling together and knew their respective names and identities.

The old man with a long beard, who was also a fourth-layer Jin Dan cultivator like Song Song Qingming, had the Daoist name True Person Liuyun and was a loose cultivator who had formed his core for more than two hundred years. His cave dwelling was on a small island not far from Spirit Guidao.

The man in golden armor who liked to joke and talk with everyone the most was named Luo Luo Yulong, and he was also a loose cultivator who had been famous for a long time.

Luo Luo Yulong lived on Spirit Guidao and often liked to form teams with others to go deep into the outer sea to hunt demons. He had known Fairy Long Yue and Li Li Xianyun for a long time and it wasn't his first time going out to hunt demons.

The other young scholar was named Wang Wang Linchun, and he was a guest elder of a small sect near Spirit Guidao. Although his Core Formation time was about the same as Song Song Qingming's, his cultivation speed was much slower, and he had only broken through to the third layer of Jin Dan not long ago.

Fairy Long Yue appeared to be more mysterious. Besides her name, Song Song Qingming hadn't heard others mention anything related to her identity, only roughly guessing that she had a very good relationship with Li Li Xianyun and seemed to be a cultivator from a loose cultivation background as well.

Although everyone was a Jin Dan cultivator, most of them were from loose cultivation backgrounds, and their daily lives were indeed more strained than those of Jin Dan cultivators from general large sects.

After cleaning up and seeing that this trip could have such results, the people traveling together also showed a trace of joy on their faces, sweeping away the haze of returning empty-handed when looking for the "Silver Tiger Shark" before.

Especially Luo Luo Yulong and True Person Liuyun, who were dealing with the demon beast corpse with all their might, already had an undisguised look of excitement on their faces.

Just when everyone had almost finished cleaning up the demon beast corpse, Fairy Long Yue, who was guarding the surroundings in mid-air, suddenly caught a glimpse of a huge silver-white figure appearing on the distant sea, slowly leaning toward the place where everyone was.

"This is, the Silver Tiger Shark!" Seeing the demon king she had been longing to hunt suddenly appear before her eyes, Fairy Long Yue couldn't hide her joy and couldn't help but shout.

The crowd on the sea surface below was slightly stunned when they heard Fairy Long Yue say the name "Silver Tiger Shark," and soon flew into mid-air under Li Li Xianyun's lead.

"It really is the Silver Tiger Shark. I didn't expect that after searching for so long without any news, this guy actually delivered itself to our door." After seeing the figure of the "Silver Tiger Shark," Li Li Xianyun also looked happy and rarely showed an excited look.

Seeing that another more important target had appeared, Song Song Qingming and the others didn't care about the remaining demon king corpse below and focused their attention on the "Silver Tiger Shark" not far away.

Fairy Long Yue took out the flag magic treasure she had used before, cast a spell to conceal everyone's figure, and said directly: "Fellow Daoist Song, you three set up the array on the side, and I, Fellow Daoist Li, and Fellow Daoist Luo will contain this demon from the front together.

As long as we can successfully kill this demon king, besides this demon king's Jin Dan, all the materials obtained from this demon hunt will belong to you four."

"Please rest assured, Fairy Long, we will definitely do our best!" Hearing Fairy Long Yue offer such generous conditions in public, the spirits of Luo Luo Yulong and the others were also lifted.

Although it is not easy to kill a Jin Dan late-stage demon king, if they can succeed, each person can easily get more than ten thousand spirit stones worth of spiritual items. This is not an opportunity that can be had at any time.

Everyone used the flag magic treasure in Fairy Long Yue's hand to hide their figures and waited in place for a while. Finally, the "Silver Tiger Shark" slowly swam to the vicinity of the Jin Dan demon beast corpse below.

Just as the "Silver Tiger Shark" poked out a tall head and intended to swallow the corpse of the Jin Dan demon beast, a sword light with incomparable power and a trace of sword intent suddenly slashed out from mid-air, straight toward its huge white head.

Seeing someone sneak attack, the "Silver Tiger Shark" immediately spat out a shield magic treasure made of animal skin to block in front of itself, wanting to block this dangerous blow that was close at hand.

Only hearing a "bang," after the sword light touched the shield in front of the "Silver Tiger Shark," the shield magic treasure was immediately knocked away to the side.

Before the "Silver Tiger Shark" could take back this magic treasure, three rays of golden light shot directly into the sea from mid-air, turning into several golden light lines that trapped the huge figure of this demon king.

"Hehe! You fellow daoists did well, it's our turn!"

Following a hearty laugh, Luo Luo Yulong, holding a giant iron hammer magic treasure, and Fairy Long Yue killed the "Silver Tiger Shark" below from left and right.

Seeing that the other party had so many Jin Dan cultivators, the "Silver Tiger Shark" immediately slammed forward with all its might in the sea, shaking Song Song Qingming and the other two who were still controlling the formation in mid-air, and the "Jin Guang Binding Demon Array" they controlled also moved forward by dozens of feet.

Song Song Qingming, who was controlling the array with all his might, also immediately felt the power of this Jin Dan late-stage demon king. Whether it was the spiritual power or the power of the flesh, the "Silver Tiger Shark" below was far from comparable to the early Jin Dan demon king they dealt with before.

Just when the "Silver Tiger Shark" wanted to break free from the control of the golden light array below, a giant iron hammer blocked its front, blocking the "Silver Tiger Shark's" path forward.

Immediately after, two sword lights of different colors attacked from the other side of the "Silver Tiger Shark." It was the two flying swords controlled by Fairy Long Yue, which immediately forced the protective light shield on the "Silver Tiger Shark."

Before long, another cyan sword light flew into the sea and joined the battle.

Facing the all-out attack of Li Li Xianyun, Fairy Long Yue, and Luo Luo Yulong together, the "Silver Tiger Shark" could only parry repeatedly for a while and had no way to fully break the obstruction of the "Jin Guang Binding Demon Array."

Seeing that it had fallen into a disadvantage under the siege of the crowd and already had many injuries on its body, the "Silver Tiger Shark" was somewhat angry. After letting out an angry roar with all its might, it spat out the Jin Dan in its body and forced back Li Li Xianyun and the other three with all its might.

Afterward, the "Silver Tiger Shark" slammed forward with all its might again, directly passing through the control of several golden lights, and then carried this large array and moved forward quickly.

Song Song Qingming and the other two in mid-air, facing this situation, were also somewhat helpless and could only control the array with all their might to prevent the other party from diving into the deep sea, but they had no way to stop the "Silver Tiger Shark" from escaping quickly in the sea.

"Fellow daoists, you must hold on. Give us a little more time and this guy won't be able to run!"

Fairy Long Yue and the others who were chasing from behind saw this and were also somewhat afraid that Song Song Qingming and the other three wouldn't be able to hold on and let the "Silver Tiger Shark" run away, so they hurriedly encouraged them.

In this way, a few people chased the "Silver Tiger Shark" and ran for dozens of miles in the sea area before slowly slowing down a bit.

Just when Li Li Xianyun and the others stepped forward and prepared to intercept this demon king again, a deafening roar suddenly came from the distant sky, which startled the crowd who were fighting with the demon king on the sea surface, and they hurriedly moved their gaze over.

I saw a high giant wave suddenly roll up in the distant sky, rushing toward the battlefield where they were located like a surging wave, mixed with many black dots and shadows. Seeing this scene, the crowd's faces changed drastically.

The most experienced True Person Liuyun immediately turned around and shouted loudly to the crowd around him: "Not good! It's the Heavenly Wind Beast Tide, everyone hurry up and evacuate here!"

Hearing the four words "Heavenly Wind Beast Tide," Song Song Qingming also had an incredulous look on his face, looking at the formation flags in his hands, somewhat unable to make a choice for a while.

The outer sea is not as calm as the inner sea. The weather here is unpredictable. It might be clear and sunny one moment, and a fierce black cloud storm might strike the next. Some natural disasters that even cultivators talk about with fear often appear.

The Heavenly Wind Beast Tide in True Person Liuyun's mouth is precisely one of the famous major natural disasters in the outer sea. When the storm rolls up giant waves, countless demon beasts in the sea will follow, and among them, there will even be Jin Dan demon kings.

Encountering this kind of large-scale "Heavenly Wind Beast Tide" in the outer sea, once unable to dodge in time, even Jin Dan cultivators will have the danger of falling. It's no wonder that everyone is so nervous.

"Forget about the Silver Tiger Shark, everyone hurry up and retreat!" As the team leader, Fairy Long Yue saw that the scale of the beast tide in front of her somewhat exceeded her expectations, and without too much hesitation, she hurriedly took out the flying boat on her body and shouted loudly to the crowd.

Seeing this, Song Song Qingming and the others didn't hesitate either, directly threw down the formation flags in their hands, gathered with Fairy Long Yue and the others, and took advantage of the flying boat turning around to escape forward.

Although the flying boat controlled by Fairy Long Yue was not slow in escape speed, the beast tide chasing from behind, because it was accompanied by the giant waves rolled up by the heavenly wind, was much faster than them, and soon caught up to not far behind the flying boat.

Just hunting demons a moment ago, in the blink of an eye, everyone became the side fleeing in a hurry. This sudden role reversal also made everyone on the flying boat helpless and somewhat unable to accept this fact.

"With such a large-scale beast tide, the target is too big and will attract the attention of those demon kings inside. Everyone had better run separately. We will contact each other again when we return to Spirit Guidao."

As the team leader, Fairy Long Yue saw that there were already several demon kings flying out from the giant waves behind and chasing them, so she hesitated for a moment before issuing a command to disperse and escape to everyone.

Afterward, Fairy Long Yue put away the flying boat, took the lead in turning into a white light, left the original place, and fled directly away from here.

Seeing this, the rest of the crowd didn't want to fall behind either and chose a direction to escape forward quickly, only hoping that the demon kings chasing from behind wouldn't focus on them.

Wang Wang Linchun, who had the slowest escape speed among the crowd, saw that a demon king was staring at him from behind. He couldn't care too much and hurriedly took out a flight magic tool that could help improve escape speed from his body, wanting to speed up his flight speed.

However, his movement was too big, and two more Jin Dan demon kings with not low cultivation on the side focused their attention on him and chased directly toward Wang Wang Linchun's position.

Song Song Qingming, who saw this scene from afar, felt a slight shock in his heart and immediately suppressed the idea of using the "Phantom Boat."

With such a large-scale beast tide, there must be more than just these few demon kings. Although using the "Phantom Boat" could speed up his escape, if it attracted the attention of the demon kings and was entangled by them, he might be buried in this beast tide.

After running forward with all his might for more than ten miles, Song Song Qingming had already lost the figures of the others in front of him, and he could only continue to flee forward with all his might alone, biting the bullet.

Because Song Song Qingming had practiced the "Jiugong Meteor Escape," his escape speed was not too slow among the crowd, and he was still able to leave the beast tide far behind.

However, I don't know if it was because the movement of Song Song Qingming continuously performing the "Jiugong Meteor Escape" technique was too big, or if his luck today was too bad. After running for a distance, Song Song Qingming still attracted the attention of two demon kings in the vicinity, who chased toward him.

Although the strength of these two demon kings was not strong, both were in the early Jin Dan stage, but one of them was a bird-type demon beast, and its escape speed far exceeded that of average Jin Dan cultivators. Song Song Qingming tried to shake it off several times by increasing his escape speed but failed to do so.

The demon king chased to his back again, preparing to use magical powers to harass him. Song Song Qingming, who was already at his wit's end and didn't have much spiritual power left in his body, was thinking about how to escape when he suddenly saw a nameless small island appear in front of him.

After taking a look at the terrain of the small island, Song Song Qingming didn't hesitate either. He directly used the "Phantom Boat" to suddenly accelerate and shake off the other party, then controlled the flying boat to quickly pass through a cliff break in the middle of the island below.

After the "Phantom Boat" flew to the back of the island, Song Song Qingming saw many stone caves on the cliff wall, so he found a smaller one and hid directly inside.

When the bird demon king chased to the sky above the island, seeing that it had lost the trace of Song Song Qingming all of a sudden, it wanted to search around.

In a stone cave on the cliff wall of the island, a deafening roar suddenly came, and then several stone cave entrances around it were completely buried by the giant stone fragments falling from above. (End of chapter)
