Song Yan’s expression shifted as he flew across.
He saw an old man in gray, accompanied by two men and two women, struggling to hold out on an island.
The Divine Infant Celestial Calamity Beast passed through, accompanied by numerous Celestial Calamity Water Beasts.
These five cultivators seemed to have been on the island, yet they were caught in an unexpected disaster.
Even though the Celestial Calamity Water Beasts hadn’t attacked those five, just the overwhelming presence was like tens of thousands of iron hooves trampling over a few innocent civilians.
Even without the intent to kill, those civilians would still be crushed to death by the hooves.
At this moment,
Song Yan couldn’t help but utter a surprised "Hmm?".
Previously, he had passed by this island but hadn’t noticed anyone there.
Though he hadn’t thoroughly investigated the island and had only scanned it quickly with his Divine Sense, it shouldn’t be enough to miss those cultivators.
If not for the commotion caused by the resistance of these five due to the Divine Infant Water Flood Dragon’s beast tide, he might still not have discovered them.
What was going on?
This inevitably piqued Song Yan’s curiosity.
He looked more closely.
Quickly, he recognized that the old man in gray was merely a small figure at the mid-stage of Purple Mansion, and among the two men and two women, one was at the early stage of Purple Mansion, and three were at the late stage of Crimson Palace.
At this moment, as the array shield shattered, the old man who was sustaining it was the first to spit blood and was thrown out, followed by another early stage Purple Mansion male cultivator, while the remaining three showed faces full of fear.
Song Yan’s expression shifted slightly, and he flew forward.
The Purple Mansion male cultivator fell into the water, and before he could react, several Celestial Calamity Water Beasts charged at him, killing him.
Song Yan captured the man’s Divine Soul, severed the cause and effect with "Transmutation," binding it to himself, then leaped up again, arriving at the array shield, and suddenly threw out Profound Jade, followed by performing techniques to solidify the array.
The array instantly solidified.
The next moment, it shattered again.
Song Yan gritted his teeth, struggling to maintain it.
The array shield solidified and shattered repeatedly, while the old man on the other side regained his senses and desperately joined in supporting the array shield.
Within the array shield, there was pin-drop silence, and no one spoke as each face was filled with terror.
After an unknown amount of time, the wave of passing Celestial Calamity Beasts left.
Song Yan ceased casting techniques and leaned back.
But he didn’t fall to the ground; instead, he collapsed into the arms of a charming female cultivator with dimples.
"Senior brother, senior brother!" The charming female cultivator cried, her face tear-streaked and breathless.
The gray-robed old man, panting heavily, sternly rebuked, "Death is but a head hitting the ground; why the tears? What kind of path are you cultivating?!"
The charming female cultivator quickly stopped crying.
The gray-robed old man then looked at Song Yan and said, "Wei Xian, though you fell into the sea, you maintained your heart and climbed up again. It seems you’ve comprehended a greater Sword Intent. Congratulations."
