Chapter 157 Imitation
Chapter 157 Imitation
The cunning moonlight sprinkled on the earth. At this moment, above the starry sky filled with light spots, a young man in black was flying rapidly between the mountains and forests. The speed was so fast that he reached the edge of Xumi Beach in less than half an hour.
Looking at the beach where the tide was rising, No. 4 Ye Li released his mental power, which instantly covered an area of tens of thousands of meters, and continued to fly forward until he discovered the invaders on an island at the border of the sea.
According to the accurate and clear images transmitted back by mental power, there is only one enemy, and judging from the aura emanating from him, he is almost at the threshold of a top demon god, so his strength should not be underestimated.
No. 4 Ye Li frowned, still a little confused as to why the West Sea Alliance was so confident in sending a key player to fight with him.
Based on his previous record of fighting one against a hundred, the West Sea Alliance should not take action against Xumi temporarily, but they still sent an opponent whose fighting power was not weaker than his. It was obvious that they had made some kind of determination or agreement.
Putting aside all the speculations in his mind, No. 4 Ye Li's expression became serious, and his flying speed increased a bit. After a few minutes, he had arrived above an island, looking down at the demon god on the top of the island.
"You are really full of vigor and vitality, young man."
The demon god on the top of the mountain below had a very handsome appearance, with yellow hair and purple-gray pupils, giving people a withered feeling, like an old tree, but the chain wrapped around one of his arms still made No. 4 Ye Li a little more surprised.
"It seems that you are not without expertise in formations, since you can engrave the power of formations into weapons."
No. 4 Ye Li's slightly surprised voice rang out on the island where waves beat against sand, and the demon god had already discovered the arrival of No. 4 Ye Li.
In response to No. 4 Ye Li's comments on the weapon in his hand, the chained demon slowly raised his head, looked at No. 4 Ye Li with his back to the moonlight, and said in a withered voice:
"Young man, although we cannot copy the magic tools made by you Liyue, we can imitate them and have our own system. However, the leader sent me here this time to eliminate you, the external threat, so that you will not disturb our plans in Xumi."
The old demon's turbid eyes lit up with a gleam of light, and the chains on his arms glowed, moving as flexibly as a snake, and constantly growing, like plants.
"You are really arrogant. You divided the battle lines into four or five and attacked four enemies. Aren't you afraid of dying of starvation?"
"Young people are really too impetuous. I should give you a beating with my old bones."
As the old demon god spoke, dozens of chains beside him stirred up waves in the surroundings. The top of the island was covered with cracks. The old demon god was fixed in the rocks under his feet, and the chains rushed forward like whips.
"It's really troublesome, but your craftsmanship in making magic tools is indeed different from ours. After all, if you fall behind, you will be beaten. You really learn this very quickly."
No. 4 Ye Li was talking, not caring at all about someone copying his ideas. After all, it was inevitable that some things would be lost on the battlefield, and the other demons were not fools. Would they not learn good things and wait to be cleaned up?
The Tang sword in his hand shone brightly, and countless sword lights flashed, colliding with the chains that were rushing towards him like a violent storm. The sound of metal clashing and the sparks produced by friction formed an extremely special blueprint under the moonlight.
……
Inazuma, Narukami Island.
Under a cherry tree, the moonlight of the sunset was shining. As the future ruler and leader of the entire Inazuma, Raiden Shin drank the glass of wine in his hand. His dark purple eyes were thoughtful as he said to his sister, Raiden, who was reading out intelligence next to him:
"Ying, tomorrow you will lead a team of monsters out to sea and cooperate with the Tengu leader to block the gathering place of the West Sea Demon Gods on the East Sea side. Ganlu from Liyue has sent news that they have sent people to establish diplomatic relations with us. For the sake of safety on the road, you should go and clean up the nearby enemies."
Listening to his sister's arrangement, Lei Dianying's expressionless face fluctuated, and he nodded slightly:
"Understood, sister. I will use the sword skill I recently learned to clear some obstacles for our future friends."
Seeing his sister Lei Dianying like this, Lei Dianzhen, who had already gotten used to it, had no choice but to drink up the wine in his glass, turned his head to look at the fox demon clan leader who was walking up the stairs from the bottom of the mountain, and said with a slight smile on his face:
"It seems that the humans have already moved their capital. Thank you for your hard work these days."
The fox demon clan leader shook his head. His fiery red hair looked particularly charming under the moonlight. He just chuckled and said:
"Haha, it's not that hard. After all, in a small place like ours, the living conditions of humans are even more difficult than those of us monsters. It is an honor for them to be protected by a god like you."
"After all, Liyue treats humans well. Moreover, they will play a leading role in the future. I have deeply experienced this from my past exchanges with Ganlu."
The two were talking and laughing under the moonlight, the fallen cherry blossoms were blown by the breeze, and Lei Dianying, who was standing alone beside the two, had a faint flash of lightning in his eyes. He slowly closed his eyes, feeling the sword that he had recently comprehended at the pinnacle of martial arts.
……
In the center of the South China Sea, on an unnamed island.
Hundreds of ships driven by the Qianyan Army were docked nearby. The edge of the island was shining with the light of a hundred-meter-high tower temporarily built by Ye Liling, guarding against any unusual movements in the surrounding night sky that might occur at any time.
Ye Li sat in a makeshift house, holding a map and a sand table in his hands. The flags on them were the locations of various gathering places and unexpected battles of demons encountered on the road.
"We will sail to this location tomorrow. According to the map drawn by other immortals, as long as we take this sea route, we should be able to reach Inazuma within three days."
"Master, isn't our main mission this time to conquer the territories of other demon gods? Why do we have to go to Inazuma specifically? I remember that the demon gods over there don't covet the thrones here."
"Think about it. We have already cooperated with Xumi. Although Inazuma is located in a remote area, it has sufficient electrical crystals as energy. Other minerals also have materials that are scarce in Liyue. You should also know how much it costs for all these ships."
The young Qianyan soldier who asked such a frivolous question at this time scratched his head, and the old soldier next to him who came to watch the meeting knocked on the other's head helplessly with his hand.
Fortunately, this Medicine Master was not as strict as other immortals and was quite easy to talk to. Otherwise, the young man in front of him might have to receive special training from the immortal.
"Okay, let's end the meeting here. Everyone should have a good rest tonight. Yang Fan will leave tomorrow."
……
Thirty kilometers away from the island where a hundred ships were docked, four demons stood in their respective positions. Although each side had their own dissatisfaction, they put aside their hostility and temporarily formed a team. The dense army of monsters behind them did not say a word.
"After watching for so long, is there any way to deal with it?"
"There are simply too many defensive formations on their ships, and even if they are combined, even a single demon god like us cannot break them. Moreover, that guy's combat power cannot be underestimated, so we must plan carefully."
At this moment, the lazy young man raised his eyes and looked at where Ye Li was across a long distance.
As if it were a distant induction, at this moment in the temporary house built on the island, Ye Li stopped drawing the talisman in his hand, looked out the window, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and murmured:
"After following them for so long, they are really patient. Aren't they afraid that I will set a trap along the way?"
