"We are the West Sea Seven Immortals, entrusted this ti to invite Yin Fairy for a visit!" The tall and strong man, who led the seven Great Cultivators, responded with a smile.
Li Shiming was taken aback. He had never heard of the West Sea Seven Immortals, nor did he understand who could afford to engage seven Great Cultivators and what imnse price it would require.
"Who asked you to co?" he asked in a deep voice.
"We, the West Sea Seven Immortals, are people of our word. How could we possibly tell you who our master is, even if you are about to fall?" The tall and strong man replied with a smile.
The West Sea Seven Immortals, as the tall and strong man called them, was their self-proclaid na. In the West Sea, west of the Central State Continent, they were a notorious group of pirates specializing in looting long-distance flying boats on the ocean.
They also undertook so missions from major forces, doing dark work for them. This was the primary reason for their continual survival in the West Sea.
Their true na was the West Sea Seven Wolves, a wolf pack composed of seven Great Cultivators, posing a significant threat. Unless a long-distance flying boat paid protection fees, an encounter with them would inevitably lead to being robbed.
This ti, they received a task with enormous benefits. Initially, upon hearing about this task, they had no intention of taking it.
But the other party offered too much, and upon hearing that it was rely an energy avatar, they decided on this interception.
The tall and strong man was not foolish. He had already verified the energy avatar matter through both the client’s and his own intelligence.
Although Li Shiming was the number one in the Great Cultivator Realm, the strength of an energy avatar was limited, and Li Shiming’s true body was still on the Dongqi Continent. Yin Shilan’s strength was almost negligible.
Such a good opportunity, as long as they completed the task, the reward they would receive would be enough for the seven Great Cultivators to hide away for a while.
When Li Shiming summoned three late-stage Golden Corpses, it didn’t raise any significant concern from the West Sea Seven Wolves. It was only natural for Li Shiming, given his reputation, to carry so defensive ans.
Due to both incomplete intelligence and intentional concealnt by the client, they were unaware of how terrifying Li Shiming’s late-stage Golden Corpses were.
After all, they were just a group of bandits, and their intelligence capabilities couldn’t compare with major forces, so the intelligence they could obtain was limited.
"Is it the Yuqing Sect or the White Emperor Sect?" Li Shiming suddenly asked.
The expressions on the faces of the West Sea Seven Wolves did not change at all, as if Li Shiming’s sudden question had no effect whatsoever.
"Don’t use such tactics. Once we’ve handed over Yin Fairy, you’ll naturally know who engaged us!" The tall and strong man laughed coldly.
He didn’t want to say more. After probing for so long, it was clear that Li Shiming had no other ans.
"Attack!" he shouted loudly.
The seven Great Cultivators simultaneously activated their respective magical treasures, attacking towards Li Shiming.
At the sa ti, behind the Green Flying Boat, a water wave appeared, and two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts flew out from within, pouncing towards the Green Flying Boat.
The battle started by the West Sea Seven Wolves erupted with full force, intending to catch Li Shiming off guard.
The attacks of the two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts caused the formation Li Shiming had casually set up to shake violently, and it seed that in a few breaths, the formation would be broken.
On the front lines, Li Shiming ignored the attack on the flying boat behind him. His figure flickered and disappeared from his original position, letting the attacks against him hit nothing.
The three late-stage Golden Corpses flashed with light, and they were now clad in a set of armor, each holding a war hamr in their hands.
The seven Great Cultivators, realizing their attacks had missed and Li Shiming’s figure had vanished, did not retract their magical treasures but instead redirected them towards the three late-stage Golden Corpses.
They did not move rashly, as the seven Great Cultivators were suspended in the air, forming the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
This Beidou Seven Stars Formation was their confidence against powerful enemies, as individual battle strength of Independent Cultivators was relatively weak, and there was nothing they could do about it.
Without powerful cultivation techniques, high-quality magical treasures, or strong backgrounds to rely on, they found a battle thod suitable for Loose Cultivators, using numbers to make up for their lack of combat power and using formations to enhance their attack power.
Li Shiming did not imdiately launch an attack. The seven Great Cultivators were perfectly suited to test the new equipnt of the late-stage Golden Corpses.
He perford ’One Step, Ten Thousand Miles’ to appear on the other side of the battlefield, distancing himself from the seven Great Cultivators, and at the sa ti observing if there were any other Cultivators present.
Seven attacks flew towards the three late-stage Golden Corpses, which accelerated from stillness, transforming into three intermittent shadows, charging towards the seven Great Cultivators just as the seven magical treasures were about to land.
The intermittent nature was due to the extraordinary speed of the late-stage Golden Corpses, so fast that even the eyes of Great Cultivators couldn’t clearly observe the movent trajectory of the late-stage Golden Corpses.
"Water Shield!" The tall and strong man gave a tily order.
The seven Great Cultivators took out seven water-blue formation flags, and soon, a Water Spiritual Power shield appeared outside the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
This was a defensive shield ford by gathering the power of seven Great Cultivators along with the effectiveness of the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
The three late-stage Golden Corpses collided into the Water Shield with the speed enhanced by the ’Speed Rule Imprint’ and the power enhanced by the ’Power Rule Imprint,’ nearly penetrating the Water Shield.
"Freeze!" Seeing this situation, the tall and strong man quickly shouted again.
The Water Shield ford by the Water Spiritual Power shield turned from liquid to solid, becoming hard ice.
The three late-stage Golden Corpses were frozen in the ice, maintaining their charging posture.
The tall and strong man was about to let his companions use this opportunity to destroy the three late-stage Golden Corpses completely, but the ice that froze them shattered into pieces before their eyes.
The three late-stage Golden Corpses broke free from the ice with their unmatched power.
Li Shiming took note of this and ntally recorded a plan for future improvents to the late-stage Golden Corpses.
While the defense of the late-stage Golden Corpses was incredibly strong, so strong that even the Great Cultivator Realm couldn’t harm them, certain restriction thods still had so effect.
The three late-stage Golden Corpses broke through the defensive shield of the seven Great Cultivators, leaving them with only their individual defenses and the cooperative defensive effect of the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
Without Li Shiming’s direction, breaking through the Beidou Seven Stars Formation with the three late-stage Golden Corpses would still require several hits to completely shatter it.
But as the three late-stage Golden Corpses launched their attack, the West Sea Seven Wolves had an internal issue, causing so chaos in the Beidou Seven Stars Formation, preventing it from fully taking effect.
The problem lay with the two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts attacking the Green Flying Boat. They initially attacked Yin Shilan, which would have indeed disrupted Li Shiming’s strategy if he hadn’t been prepared.
But Li Shiming had left a late-stage Golden Corpse behind. As the two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts launched an attack on the Defensive Array of the flying boat, the remaining late-stage Golden Corpse burst out from the boat.
The two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts were rather unlucky. In order to quickly break through the array outside the flying boat, they used a close-range thod, with the Dragon Beasts employing their most adept form of attack.
This led to the late-stage Golden Corpse, upon erging from the flying boat, being quite close to the two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts.
At the speed of a late-stage Golden Corpse, such a short distance was equivalent to being right in front of it.
The late-stage Golden Corpse stretched out its hands, and as it charged towards the two Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts, it grabbed each one’s neck with its hands.
The Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts weren’t weak in combat, having been discovered by the West Sea Seven Wolves among the goods during one of their raids, and they had recognized them as masters. After expending a great deal of resources, the West Sea Seven Wolves managed to cultivate them to be Fourth Grade Middle Stage.
Although the dragon bloodline of these Fourth Grade Middle Stage Dragon Beasts was only considered average, the two of them combined could match a normal Great Cultivator in combat, and with their special water attribute abilities, they could deal a significant blow in a surprise attack against even a Great Cultivator.
