Chapter 337: Heaven Realm Experts Attack! Guardian Beast Fusion

Li Yan nodded: "The third Child of Luck is about to awaken; I fear this is the source of these anomalies."

Nearby, the elite disciple of the Xuanji Pavilion, Li Minghao, was quietly recording something, but the Jade Slip in his hand flashed with an unusual light. Clearly, he had already transmitted this information to the sect.

"There is no time to lose, we depart immediately!" Lin Xuan decided decisively.

The group quickly packed up and set off on the journey toward the East Sea. The Xuanji Pavilion sent ten elite disciples to "escort" them, among whom the highest in cultivation, Li Minghao, had already reached the late Purple Mansion Realm.

"Young Master..." Xiao Qing transmitted her voice to Lin Xuan, "These people from the Xuanji Pavilion have been secretly observing us the entire way."

Lin Xuan's expression remained unchanged: "Let them watch; I want to see exactly what they are trying to do."

Just as the group was passing through a dense forest, a sudden change occurred!

"Careful!"

Qing Bai Er She suddenly burst out from Lin Xuan's body, and at the same time, Huo Fenghuang spread its wings and let out a sharp cry. Several fierce sword auras struck from all directions!

"It's the Qingyun Sect's Sword Controlling Technique!" Li Minghao's expression changed.

Lin Xuan sneered: "A dignified righteous sect, and you've actually learned to launch sneak attacks?"

Before the words had faded, several figures swept out from the treetops. Leading them was a middle-aged cultivator in a green robe, holding an ancient Long Sword.

"Qingyun Sect Elder Lin Canghai?" Li Minghao looked shocked, "Why are you here?"

Lin Canghai's gaze was like lightning: "The auras of two Children of Luck are unique; it is difficult not to be discovered."

Li Yan suddenly spoke: "Is it really that simple? We clearly used multiple concealment Arrays."

Lin Canghai chuckled, noncommittal. However, Lin Xuan saw a clue in that smile.

"Someone deliberately leaked our whereabouts!" he thought to himself.

The battle was on the verge of breaking out!

The Qingyun Sect cultivators unleashed their flying swords, and the dense sword light wove into a large net, enveloping everyone. Li Minghao and the other Xuanji Pavilion disciples immediately formed a defensive formation.

"Hmph!" Lin Xuan let out a cold snort, circulating the Heaven and Earth Luck Art, and the golden Qi Luck Power transformed into a barrier.

Li Yan did not show weakness either; Huo Fenghuang spread its wings, and scorching flames swept across the surroundings. The powers of the two Children of Luck intertwined, forming a perfect offensive and defensive system.

However, at this moment, another powerful aura approached from the rear!

"It's people from the Loose Cultivator Alliance!" Wang Zhenqiu discovered through Earth Vein Perception, "There are at least three Heaven Realm experts!"

Lin Xuan's heart sank. The timing of these people's appearance was too coincidental, as if it had been arranged in advance.

"Form up!" Lin Canghai suddenly shouted.

In an instant, dozens of sword lights intertwined in the air, actually forming an energy field similar to the Pyramid Outer Array!

"This is..." Li Yan's expression changed drastically, "They have actually mastered part of the mysteries of that array!"

At this critical moment, Qing Bai Er She and Huo Fenghuang unleashed their power simultaneously. For some reason, the powers of the two Guardian Spirit Beasts suddenly produced a special resonance, erupting with heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.

"Roar!"

Huo Fenghuang let out a long cry, and the scorching flames transformed into a Fire Dragon, charging toward the weakest point of the array. At the same time, Qing Bai Er She spat out cold poisonous mist, condensing it into a divine sword, striking directly at Lin Canghai's vitals!

"This is..." Lin Canghai's expression changed violently, "The power of the Guardian Spirit Beasts can actually fuse?!"

Yet, what was even more shocking was yet to come.

As the powers of the two Guardian Spirit Beasts merged, the Qi Luck Power within Lin Xuan and Li Yan also began to undergo a miraculous change. Within the golden Qi Luck Power, the light of flames flickered faintly.

"Boom!"

A terrifying energy explosion directly tore apart the Qingyun Sect's Sword Formation. Lin Canghai and the others were shaken back repeatedly by this force.

"Retreat!" Lin Canghai decided decisively.

However, before they could retreat, another powerful aura descended upon the battlefield.

"Hahaha!" An insidious laugh rang out, "The power of the two Children of Luck is truly well-deserved!"

Several black shadows descended from the sky; they were indeed experts from the Loose Cultivator Alliance. They wore uniform black combat gear and held various Dharma Artifacts, clearly well-prepared.

"We're in trouble now," Wang Zhenqiu said in a low voice, "We are being attacked from both sides!"

However, Lin Xuan revealed a cold smile: "Not necessarily!"

He suddenly took out a Jade Slip and crushed it violently. In an instant, a golden light shot into the sky.

"That is..." Li Minghao's pupils constricted, "The Xuanji Pavilion's distress signal!"

Indeed, this was the distress Jade Slip the Xuanji Pavilion had given to Lin Xuan. Crushing it now meant dragging the Xuanji Pavilion into this chaotic battle as well.

Sure enough, in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, rapid sounds of breaking through the air came from afar.

"It's the Xuanji Pavilion's reinforcements!" Li Minghao was overjoyed.

However, Lin Xuan's goal was not just to summon reinforcements. He wanted to make the various factions fight each other so he could escape in the chaos.

"Go!"

The power of Qing Bai Er She and Huo Fenghuang erupted again, and the two energies intertwined into a peculiar light screen. Under this cover, Lin Xuan and his group quickly broke through.

"Don't let them run!" Lin Canghai shouted.

But it was already too late. By the time the Xuanji Pavilion's reinforcements arrived, the battlefield had fallen into chaos. The various parties were attacking each other, making it impossible to distinguish friend from foe for a time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Xuan and the others had already fled a hundred miles away.

"Phew..." Wang Zhenqiu breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally got away."

However, Lin Xuan's expression was exceptionally grave: "Something is wrong."

"What is it?" Li Yan asked.

"Haven't you noticed?" Lin Xuan's gaze was deep, "The appearance of these people is too coincidental. And they all seem to have mastered part of the knowledge of the Pyramid Outer Array."

Li Yan suddenly realized: "You mean..."

"That's right!" Lin Xuan nodded, "Someone must be manipulating all of this from the shadows. They not only deliberately leaked our whereabouts but also intentionally let the various factions come to cause us trouble."

"Why would they do that?" Wang Zhenqiu was puzzled.

"Perhaps..." Lin Xuan looked toward the East Sea, "they want to force us to speed up the search for the third Child of Luck!"

Hearing this, the crowd could not help but gasp. If this were truly the case, the layout of the mastermind behind the scenes would be too terrifying.

"Young Master," Xiao Qing suddenly said, "I feel the aura of the third Child of Luck becoming stronger and stronger."

Qing Bai Er She and Huo Fenghuang also resonated: "Indeed, that aura is much stronger than before. And..."

"And what?"

"That aura seems to carry a certain kind of sorrow and anger," Huo Fenghuang transmitted via voice, "it is as if..."

"As if it were a caged beast!" Qing Bai Er She added.

This discovery made Lin Xuan's heart tighten. Could the third Child of Luck have already fallen into the hands of some faction?

"No matter what," Lin Xuan said with a firm gaze, "we must reach the East Sea as quickly as possible!"

"Such a strong fluctuation of Spirit Qi!" Li Yan said in surprise, "The entire island is like a massive spirit vein!"
