Chapter 1058: Enemy Attack, A Slap in the Face
Hearing Zhi Niang say this, He Pingsheng stopped talking.
After all, everything was just his speculation, and he didn't know if this attack method was a habit of these Two-Headed Kui Eagles.
Without knowing the enemy, it was easy for his viewpoint to be overturned.
He Pingsheng simply sat cross-legged on the deck, released his spiritual sense, and searched as much as possible for traces of potential enemies in the surroundings.
Just at this moment, another giant bird rushed out from the darkness and attacked the great ship.
The massive ship hull kept swaying.
One offensive array light membrane after another flashed out and slowly extinguished.
Finally, all personnel had finished their rotation.
Zhi Niang in the void looked down and shouted, "First group... it's your turn again!"
"How is your recovery?"
He Pingsheng was naturally fine; he had already stood up.
But the others were all pale-faced.
Someone said, "It's not enough... the time was too short, I've only recovered less than fifty percent of my immortal essence!"
"Elder, let us recover a bit more!"
"Yes, Elder!"
Among the thirty people, at least half had not recovered.
"No!" Zhi Niang said. "The other side has already attacked!"
"Damn it... why are there two this time?"
*Boom... *
*Boom boom... *
As she spoke, two violent energy fluctuations slammed into the ship's defensive light membrane.
The golden defensive light membrane looked like it was about to be breached.
Zhi Niang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan: "First group, everyone guard the array core, however many there are, just give me everything and start the array!"
There was no other way!
Everyone had to obey orders, returning one by one to the position of the array core, feeding their internal immortal essence into the array.
*Hum hum hum... *
The extinguished crimson offensive array light membrane was ignited once again.
But this time, the ignition could not reach its previous brightness.
Only about sixty percent of the energy flew into the cannon, turning into a shell and blasting out.
Although this strike hit one Two-Headed Kui Eagle, it didn't kill it, only blasting it down to the ground.
"Jie jie jie..."
"Chiu chiu chiu chiu..."
Just at this moment, in the night sky all around, the screeching of countless Two-Headed Kui Eagles suddenly came from the front, back, left, and right simultaneously.
The next moment, over a dozen massive Two-Headed Kui Eagles surrounded the ship from all sides almost at the same time.
"Not good!" Zhi Niang shouted, "There really is a problem... these beasts are being controlled by someone!"
"Second group, get up here!"
However, before the second group could enter the array core, the opponent launched an attack.
*Boom... *
*Boom boom boom... *
Light spheres blasted over.
The defensive light membrane around the immortal ship dimmed rapidly.
In less than three breaths, the massive defensive array *popped* and was breached by the external attack.
Sixteen or seventeen Two-Headed Kui Eagles headed straight for the ship.
Just at this moment, four humans dressed in black suddenly emerged from under the feathers on the backs of four of the Kui Eagles.
"Slash..."
Those humans shouted, and then almost simultaneously drew their swords.
Four sword lights turned into crescent attacks, sweeping from top to bottom, like cracks tearing through the darkness, growing longer as they approached from afar!
Finally, the four sword lights merged into one and slashed fiercely into the middle of the ship where He Pingsheng was.
The massive force turned into a storm, cutting directly through the middle of the ship!
With a *crack*, the divine ship was sliced into two halves.
He Pingsheng didn't have time to check the cultivation level of the attacking cultivators; he immediately activated the 【Absolute Shadow Immortal Art】 technique, his speed increasing fivefold, and jumped off the ship.
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh... *
Hundreds of streams of light escaped from the ship.
There were also over a dozen immortals who were locked onto by the external attack along with the ship and were unable to escape, being slain instantly.
Fortunately, most of them escaped.
Zhi Niang flew into the void and shouted at the disciples fleeing in all directions: "All disciples of my Red Lotus Immortal Valley, flee for your lives... whether you can break through the encirclement depends on your own fortune!"
"If anyone happens to escape, don't forget to tell the sect; these Kunwu Mountain scums must be avenged!"
Now she understood that this was a premeditated attack!
Even with one's butt, one could guess it was Kunwu Mountain!
As for why Kunwu Mountain knew that the Red Lotus Immortal Valley disciples were heading to Qiankun Immortal City to solidify their Dao, that was even easier to understand: there was a mole leaking information.
He Pingsheng put distance of several hundred *zhang* between himself and the great ship in one breath before he blasted his spiritual sense out again to scan the enemies.
There were four enemies in total, all dressed in black, with masks on their heads that could prevent spiritual sense scanning.
Although the masks covered their faces and their appearances couldn't be seen, their cultivation levels could not be hidden when they attacked.
He Pingsheng saw that all four were Earth Immortals.
And they were all late-stage Earth Immortals.
Two at the eighth layer, two at the ninth layer.
If there were only one, He Pingsheng could try using the 【Immortal-Binding Rope】 in his hand.
With four people, plus the dozen or so Earth Immortal-level demonic beasts around, He Pingsheng didn't hesitate at all and chose a direction to flee as a stream of light.
*Whoosh... *
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh... *
Although it was a randomly chosen direction, there were still a few streams of light following He Pingsheng as they rushed out together.
He couldn't care about others; saving his own life was the priority!
But what made He Pingsheng want to vomit blood was that the four Earth Immortal cultivators from Kunwu Mountain didn't pursue Zhi Niang, but instead chased toward him.
*Whoosh... *
A black light flashed, and the massive Two-Headed Kui Eagle crossed the void to surpass his position, its giant wings flapping, bringing a gale mixed with energy toward his face.
He Pingsheng was caught off guard and had to slow down.
Immediately after, several sword lights blasted over.
Vomiting blood!
He Pingsheng dodged in a flurry, but in his heart, he understood the gist: Damn it, someone must have leaked the news that I am a peerless genius, and this interception by Kunwu Mountain is aimed at me!
Sigh... truly damnable!
Who could it be?
Thinking of this, He Pingsheng instead gave up the idea of fleeing.
Since he couldn't run, he might as well stay and face the enemy.
Actually, He Pingsheng wasn't afraid, because he still had four second-tier offensive talismans and seven second-tier defensive immortal talismans in his hand.
Plus the 【Immortal-Binding Rope】 immortal artifact, he could at least slaughter a few.
However, the next moment, a scene appeared that made He Pingsheng's face burn with shame.
He heard one of the black-clad men shout loudly: "Lu Xiaoci... don't make futile struggles!"
"You have nowhere to run now!"
"Unless you can kill all four of us in one breath!"
"Otherwise, you will surely die!"
Ah, this...
He Pingsheng opened his mouth wide, looking astonished!
Good fellow!
It turned out they weren't aiming for me; they were aiming for Lu Xiaoci.
A slap in the face! ===== CHAPTER 1059 =====
