Chapter 538: Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Hiss!

The Nine-Headed Python King Hydra let out a hiss in front of the nervous crowd’s gazes, and it dived down fast from a high altitude. Its 2000-meter-long body smashed the island’s glowing scarlet halo like a shell, and a sonorous rumble sound as loud as thunder echoed out. The great impact shook people’s eardrums so much that they felt a sting of pain, and the scarlet halo enveloping the Demon Island started shaking. But, it quickly recovered to normal while the colossal Hydra was deflected.

“The Ancient Thorns Magical Formation Spell?” Hydra shook its dizzy head and looked in confusion at the strong Protection Formation Spell of the island.

Many Magical Formation Spells were passed down from ancient times, and the Thorns Magical Formation Spell was one of them. As long as the Thorns Magical Formation Spell was provided enough energy, it wouldn’t just block the enemy’s attacks. It would still rebound them and inflict a certain amount of damages on the attackers.

Swoosh!

Hydra wasn’t willing to accept this, and after it took a breath, it flew again and smashed the halo. One time, two times… Every time was fiercer than the one before it, and its strength was also greater. Hydra rained attacks upon the halo, and every strike was heavier than the other. This was why the scarlet halo that had a large scope started shaking intensely!

“Smash it! Smash it and break this hateful tortoiseshell.”

“Smash and break the island’s Protection Formation Spell and let’s charge into the Demon Island.”

…

The Sea Tribe’s members that surrendered started cheering with the Giant Ape King and others. The fiercer Hydra smashed the halo, the more intense the scarlet halo swayed, and the louder the crowd shouted. They had also taken out their sharp weapons and raised them high.

More black clouds gathered in the sky, and they that foretold an imminent great storm. The sky also turned darker, and if those were usual times, the crowd would have taken shelter in a harbor, but now, the excited crowd didn’t just stay here, they even took out torches and surrounded the Demon Island.

The numerous Sea Tribes’ members started instigating other, and more Sea Tribes capitulated to Yang Ling. After those Sea Tribes got news of this battle, they rushed here to take revenge and make great contributions so that they would occupy a sea area rich with resources in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. Even the cowardly Shrimp-Men formed a team and held spears made out of wood before they joined the ranks of the army rebelling against the Sea Demons’ tyrant and violent rule.

After a short while, the Demon Island’s sea area became packed with a large number of impassioned people, and they were all resentful toward the Demon Island’s stifling and bloody rule. In the past, they didn’t dare to express their anger toward the powerful Demon Island, and Yang Ling’s surprise attack was like a torch that ignited a barrel of gunpowder.

The Sea Demon King led the Demon Island’s elite and traveled far away for the Dark Association, and as long as the crowd broke the island’s Protective Formation Spell, they would manage to attack the few remaining soldiers on the island and destroy the Demon Island thoroughly. The island’s Protective Formation Spell was too powerful, and even if all Sea Tribes joined hands to attack it, they might not manage to break it. But, it was a different case for the Great Demon King Yang Ling.

The Divine Beast Hydra with a body length of 2000 meters, let the crowd see a golden and rare opportunity for taking revenge and escaping the abyss of suffering.

The numerous Sea Tribes were hopeful, while the Demon Island’s defenders were fearful and deeply worried. For the past years, the Demon Island blocked wave upon wave of the attacks of the Sea Tribes’ Allied Armies, but they still had never seen a Magical Beast so terrifying as Hydra.

The Magical Formation Spell shaking intensely consumed a large amount of energy, and it consumed several chariots of Premium Crystal Ores in the twinkling of an eye. But, the Nine-Headed Python’s attacks were only becoming fiercer and stronger, and the crowd couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air. None knew how long would the island’s Formation Spell persist, and every person’s palm was filled with cold sweat.

“Huh? Impossible, he has fallen into the Death Sea’s whirlpool. So, how is it possible for him to still…” The old witch sitting in a wheelchair that was escorted by a group of personal crowds showed herself in front of the crowd. The old witch’s expression was gloomy, and when she saw Yang Ling’s upright body, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief.

The old witch managed to escape the crisis because she was in the whirlpool’s periphery, and she still had to chop off her legs to do so. This was why she sustained heavy injuries, and she didn’t expect that Yang Ling that was at the center of the whirlpool would be safe and sound. This was unbelievable!

Could it be that this person was Yang Ling’s twin brother?

The shocked old witch thought about another possibility. She had lived for several thousand years, yet she had never seen anyone that managed to escape the Death Sea Area’s whirlpool unscathed. It would be difficult for even a powerful High-Level Deity Stage’s powerhouse to survive it, and she couldn’t believe that a trifling Low-Level Deity like Yang Ling would make a narrow escape.

“Respected old… Old madam. I didn’t expect that we will get to meet again so soon.” When Yang Ling saw the old witch that cut off her legs and was barely alive, he couldn’t help but think about her arrogant attitude, and he felt quite refreshed by this.

Old, old madam?

After Yang Ling spoke, the old witch affirmed that it was really the Great Demon King that cornered her, and she recalled that Yang Ling described the wrinkles on her face as marine trenches. She was so infuriated that she gnashed her teeth. “Demon! You are a hateful demon.”

“That is right, I’m a demon, and after I capture you, I will let you have a taste of a demon’s means.” The angrier the old witch, the more satisfied Yang Ling.

Stripping her, tying her on the Magical Beast Plaza, and having a crowd watch her?

When the old witch saw Yang Ling’s vile smile, she recalled what he had said previously, and she was so infuriated that she shivered. “Take out the Crystal Ores, take out all Crystal Ores. Hurry up!”

Even though the old witch was so infuriated that she shivered, she still didn’t lose her reason thanks to her rich experience. Since Yang Ling could escape the terrifying whirlpool, it was obvious that his power was beyond her imagination, and this was why she ordered the personal guards to take the reserve of Crystal Ores as a precaution so that the terrifying Nine-Headed Python King wouldn’t destroy the island’s Protective Formation Spell.

The Sea Demon King had taken with him most of the elites, and the Demon Island could only depend upon the island’s Protective Formation Spell. If the Formation Spell was broken, the consequences would be too horrible to imagine.

“Fram, it’s time to use the Magical Arrow left behind by the Sea Demon King. Hurry up!” The old witch muttered to herself, irresolutely for a moment before she passed down an order in a deep voice.

“Old madam, this is…” A red-robed old Sea Demon next to the old witch was stunned, and he looked at the resolute and decisive old witch before he looked at the Nine-Headed Python that attacked the island’s Protective Formation Spell crazily. He nodded before he quickly left, and after a short while, a scarlet Magical Arrow flew out of his hand and soared into the sky. It emitted intense Energy Ripples that spread far away!

It was awful!

When Yang Ling saw the Magical Arrow that penetrated the sky, he understood that the enemy called their distant forces. He was alarmed, and he ordered the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra to attack with its full power. He hoped to break the hateful Protective Formation Spell of the island as soon as possible, but this spell’s energy was replenished by a large number of Premium Crystal Ores, and the island’s Protective Formation Spell shone suddenly with brighter scarlet radiance.

BANG!

A loud noise echoed out, but the island’s Protective Formation Spell was unaffected, and the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra was deflected and sent flying far away. Hydra felt a stab of pain from its whole body, and it got a dizzy spell, while its internal organs were shaken. It let out an aggrieved cry before it lost its balance and fell down from a high-altitude. It fell into the sea and didn’t float into the surface even after a long time.

“Rodriguez, attack it. Use those Magic Crystal Cannons to destroy the Demon Island’s Protective Formation Spell. Hurry up!” Yang Ling’s expression was ice-cold, and he took more than a hundred Magic Crystal Cannons and tens Dragon-Bone Carriages in one go. The Corpse Wizard King started commanding the crowd, and the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragon-Bone carriages were quickly set up.

“Darn it! Where did they get so many Magic Crystal Cannons?” When the old witch saw the Magic Crystal Cannons set up quickly on the isle and saw black barrels, as well as malevolent-looking giant crossbows, her expression turned pale. “Hurry up and add more Crystal Ores. Put all Crystal Ores inside. Hurry up!”

Premium Crystal Ores were quite precious, and the Demon Island had put a lot of effort in the past years to get a sufficient amount of Premium Crystal Ores. They faced a great threat and couldn’t bother with saving Crystal Ores. More than a hundred warfare machines, the Magical Crystal Cannons, were set up in lines, and the scalp of anyone who saw the black barrels would turn numb.

“Oh, my God! Magic Crystal Cannons, those are the Magic Crystal Cannons in the legends.”

“More than 100 Magic Crystal Cannons. It’s pretty good and awesome. Let’s see how well the island’s guys die.”

The Sea Tribes that surrendered were overjoyed, and they waved their weapons excitedly. When the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra failed and fell into the sea, they were all disappointed, but the emergence of more than 100 Magic Crystal Cannons and tens Dragon-Bone Carriages let them again see hope for attacking the Demon Island.

BANG!

As the Corpse Wizard King commanded the crowd, the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragon-Bone Carriages revealed their might and launched volley upon volley of attacks. They emitted a deafening noise!

In the beginning, the island’s Protective Formation Spell was unaffected, but as the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragon-Bone Carriages concentrated their attacks, the scarlet halo engulfing the Demon Island started shaking, and its dazzling radiance turned dimmer. It consumed the island’s reserves of Crystal Ores quickly.

“Hurry up and put all Crystal Ores inside. Hurry up!” The old witch’s face was pale, and she wished badly to take action by herself.

The Demon Island was too far away from the Dark Association’s headquarters situated on Balark City, and none knew when would the reinforcement army rush here. Moreover, Yang Ling had innumerable Magical Beasts with him and possessed terrifying fighting prowess, while the numerous Sea Tribes in several-hundred-mile-radius rushed here to take revenge once they got news about this affair, and the situation turned more disadvantageous to the Demon Island.

What should be done?

When Yang Ling saw the scarlet halo of the island’s Protective Formation Spell shining again brightly upon getting a large amount of energy, he furrowed his brows.

Even the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra that possessed power at the peak of the Mid-Level Deity Stage failed. So, other Magical Beasts’ outcome would be obvious. This was why if the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragon-Bone Carriages’ concentrated attacks failed to break the formation spell, Yang Ling wouldn’t manage to come up with a better solution in a short time, and what was worse was that the Sea Demon King that possessed terrifying power had already gotten the Magical Message that asked for reinforcement and he might come back at any moment.

He was more pressed for time. So, what should he do?

Yang Ling’s furrowed his brows, and this was also the case for the numerous Sea Tribes’ members that wished to take revenge. The island’s Protective Formation Spell that was replenished by a large amount of energy shone in a brighter light, and this was why their hot blood started cooling. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. They didn’t expect that 2000-meter-long python wouldn’t manage to break the Demon Island’s hateful Formation Spell, and they also didn’t expect that more than 100 Magic Crystal Cannons with great power would also fail.

BANG!

Black clouds stretched for a thousand miles, and dazzling serpentine lightning streaked across the sky. As several loud thunderclaps echoed, strong sea breeze blew over, and the crowd’s clothes fluttered in the wind. The imminent storm would shortly occur!
