Chapter 106 Chapter 106 "It seems that those sealed...
"It seems that those sealed ones have already discussed and started a new round of attacks. It's time to go out." Li Hanshuang stood up with his sword in hand, with an eager smile on his face.
His voice was still calm, as if everything was just like that. Li Qinglian looked at the flames that were so close, as if they were about to appear above his head, and felt sincere admiration.
His tone was still cold, which made Li Qinglian feel that perhaps as long as Li Baili was fine, Li Hanshuang would remain as cold as he was now even if the whole world was destroyed.
A smile flashed across his face, as if he had finally escaped from his boring life and entered an elegant concert hall. Just as he was about to enjoy the music, he left the pavilion.
Li Baili packed up her things and stood up. She glanced at Li Qinglian, as if asking him whether he planned to stay here or go out with her, but she didn't say anything and left.
Li Qinglian quickly joined the battle.
The sealed ones seemed to be a little more rational this time. They did not rush forward directly because that would cause large-scale casualties, so they used long-range attacks.
The flames thrown over did not cause any substantial damage to the defensive formation. Before the flames completely disappeared, Li Hanshuang had already left the protection range of the defensive formation with his sword.
After he went out, Li Baili followed him out. They probably didn't need the protection of the defensive formation, nor did they worry that the strong wind and rain outside would harm them, so they went out almost without hesitation.
The long-range attacks of those sealed ones could not cause any damage to the two of them. The further those sealed ones retreated, the smaller the effect of their attacks on the formation became.
As they were retreating, they suddenly realized this and rushed forward again, trying to bypass the two people in front of them and directly attack the formation and the people inside it.
Li Hanshuang and Li Qinglian each chose a direction and went to look for their opponents. The moment they found them, the sealed people they found met the fate of death.
They started to run away, perhaps suddenly feeling that there was no point in staying there any longer, as they could not win anyway and would only die in the end, so they might as well run away.
But some of them pretended to escape, but actually tried to get closer to the formation.
Because now they have discovered that although the cultivators and demons in the formation rarely leave the formation, they will come out of the formation to stop them in order to prevent them from leaving the vicinity.
They began to design traps, pretending that they were weak and wanted to escape, but they had no idea of the route and looked like they were running around without any brains.
Some cultivators thought that they were truly weak, so they rushed out, trying to drive them back from the path they were about to leave to join the battle, only to fall into the trap they had designed.
They jumped up and down with joy, and pushed the immortal cultivators they had lured out into the traps they had set up in advance. Most of the immortal cultivators who came out were seriously injured.
Seeing that they were about to die, the demons slowly came out of the formation and dragged back those cultivators who were seriously injured and had almost no strength to move. It was always safer inside the formation than outside.
The immortal cultivators were covered in blood, lying on the ground gasping for breath, unable to make even a single sound. Having sustained such serious injuries, they should have screamed in pain, but after all, they were not demons, and they didn't care about being injured.
But they didn't have enough strength to scream, so they took a while to make sure they could say a complete sentence in one breath, then began to chant spells to weaken their pain, speed up their healing as much as possible, and also heal the injured next to them.
However, the power of immortal cultivators and demons is different. The healing energy of immortal cultivators is harmful to demons, so the demons stay away from them to avoid accidental injuries.
After those lying on the ground had the strength to get up, they took a look at the battle situation in the sky. There were dark, dense insects flying out from the bottom of the sea. Some of them pounced on the formation and almost filled the defensive shell, while the others flew out and flew farther away.
These bugs look easy to kill, and indeed they are. You only need to use a little energy. However, there are so many of them and they are so small that they will fly away if you are not careful.
If you rely on the aftermath of the battle to kill these bugs, there will always be omissions. If you kill these bugs specifically, you may be attacked from behind by the sealed ones who have tacit cooperation with those bugs.
This resulted in them having to form teams of at least two people when they fought. Otherwise, when facing the insects, they would be ambushed by the sealed ones, and when facing the sealed ones, they would be harassed by the insects. They would also have to watch as some of the insects with tenacious vitality, speed and agility ran away.
It's a devastating fact.
Soon, more injured cultivators returned to the formation, and the seriously injured cultivators who were resting in the formation provided them with treatment.
Those with minor injuries went back immediately, while those with serious injuries rested for a while and then went out to join the battle. However, they could not be as flexible as those who were not injured, and soon returned with their seriously injured bodies.
They did not deliberately calculate the time. The sky was gloomy and the sea was rough and unpeaceful. It seemed as if they would have to stay here forever. Everything was filled with a despairing and terrifying atmosphere.
The sound of the sea, wind, rain, fire, and flying insects covered up everything else, so that sometimes cultivators could not even hear clearly what their companions were saying.
This is undoubtedly bad for them.
Because the sealed people and the bugs didn't need to talk much, in this noisy place filled with the smell of blood and sea, they were even more excited, and their attack power was increasing.
The demons hide in dim environments, occasionally delivering a fatal blow to the sealed ones who have their backs turned, and most of the time they are catching insects.
A small part of the time, they collected the insects and incomplete limbs dropped by the sealed people and brought them back to the Demon Island. They lit a fire and set up a pot, added some sea water collected locally into the pot, threw in all the collected things, and started to boil them.
The seriously injured demon returned to the Demon Island, took a short rest, then went to the pot, drank a sip, and his body recovered instantly. He ran out of the formation happily and continued fighting.
They really love this environment and the current atmosphere, and they also like what they are doing, so their energy is simply endless compared to those of immortal cultivators.
This can be considered as barely offsetting the decline of the cultivators in this long and almost hopeless battle.
But this battle was delayed for too long.
It was also the first time that the immortal cultivators knew that there were so many seals on this sea, and each of the sealed people was extremely powerful. No matter how hard they fought, the opponents could not die.
So they could only try their best to defend and block, delaying time as much as possible, until Li Baili or Li Hanshuang found time to come to them and kill the people they were besieging.
If it were usual, they could rest at this time, but not now. Resting now is equivalent to opening a safe path for those sealed people and insects who want to escape.
So they had to continue fighting, although the more they fought, the more they felt that their power was small and almost meaningless. And the more times they fought, the more they could feel the strength of Li Baili and Li Hanshuang, which increased their psychological pressure.
Although this is not what Li Baili or Li Hanshuang meant, it is also the fact.
The immortal cultivators had no way to put aside the idea that there was actually no point in them being here, even though they knew very well that if they only relied on Li Baili or Li Hanshuang, more things would definitely slip away.
Although their strength was much smaller than that of Li Baili or Li Hanshuang, it could not be said that they had done nothing. However, when they saw the swarms of insects appearing all over the sky, one group after another, and not decreasing in number, they could not help but think that everything they had done was meaningless.
Because from the time these insects appeared until now, they have not felt that their number has decreased at all, even if a large number of these insects really died, a large number of them were cooked, or even a large number of them were eaten, a large part of them became energy supplements for the demons.
After a long time, the bugs still appeared in batches with no sign of decreasing, but there were almost no sealed ones ready to escape.
Some have already escaped, some have died, and some have returned to the sealed area to discuss the next steps. Anyway, they will not fight for the time being.
For the immortal cultivators, killing these bugs is a much easier task than fighting those sealed ones, just like being freed from a high-level mathematics exam and instead calculating single-digit addition and subtraction.
They suddenly felt that they could be as happy as the demons.
In fact, this was indeed the case at the beginning.
But they soon got bored.
Because it's a very simple thing, all they have to do is kill the bugs that are flying around and try to prevent them from escaping from them.
They once again felt a sense of meaningless boredom, as if life was meaningless and it would not matter if the whole world died with them.
They even thought that if they died at this time, they might be buried with the whole world and all living things. Why wouldn't it be worth it? Why would they be reluctant to give it up?
After we die, we will meet again. There will be no difference. There is no need to be as tired and painful as we are now.
Li Hanshuang and Li Baili noticed their changes in thinking and thought that this required intervention. After looking at each other, Li Hanshuang went to talk to Li Qinglian about this.
