The one who truly bore the brunt was Feng Yin, as he was closest to the sea surface due to his actions.

With an abrupt change happening below, he suddenly widened his eyes, his body emitting a radiant glow.

The burst of radiance attempted to resist the impact, his hands wielding the treasure halberd to smash down fiercely, both to protect himself and to offset the impact below.

The power of the treasure halberd was violently unleashed, yet despite dissipating some force, he was still sent flying.

The radiance on his body was extinguished in an instant, the treasure halberd slipped from his hands, his battle armor shattered and detached, his whole body spewing blood wildly, then he was engulfed by the surging waves, utterly powerless.

The terror of tens of thousands of demon cultivators, the panic as hundreds of demon riders moved their massive bodies, all were blown into the air and then swallowed.

Indiscriminate attacks - the larger the body, the larger the area of attack they endured, not good for those massive-bodied demon riders.

The chaotic efforts of Thunder Sound Sect's Chongxing and his group were also overturned and submerged.

The people on the island all looked up to the sky but couldn't see what was happening above.

In the mirror of the Heavenly Mirror from the five command centers, it was a vast, surging white expanse, as if a cloud sea was surging up from flat ground, they clearly saw the people and horses being overturned and swallowed.

Even through the mirror, they could feel the earth-shattering commotion on site.

"What's happening?" Manxi exclaimed in surprise.

As a monk in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, he might not be well versed in the art of attack, but he understood at least the basics: the more concentrated the power of attack, the stronger it would be. Yet, such a large-scale attack, to overturn all those watching from high above, he admitted even he could not achieve.

With a serious expression, Mulan Jin noticed that when the water splashed into the sky, it seemed not to affect the island.

East Victory Commander Wei Mo's face changed drastically in an instant. Fearing what might have happened, he regretted that he lost his mind chasing Shi Chun, having clearly seen that Thundercloud suspect to be Li Hongjiu, and failing to remember the scene when Li Hongjiu acted at sea last time.

Although the situation was different this time, he was still sure it was Li Hongjiu who took action.

His gaze suddenly fixated on the Mountain River Map, urgently asking through transmission, "Check Yan Zhili's centurion's beacon!"

Besides him, other commanders were uncertain about whose handiwork it was but gradually looked towards the beacon on the Mountain River Map.

Once Yan Zhili, Feng Yin, and Chongxing fell, naturally, people in the five teams would be happy, while some worried.

On another island, Wu Hong, Chen Wuji, Fang Zicheng, and Hao Ji popped their heads out, a figure flashed out from the cave, Huang Yingying, who was in closed-door cultivation, was also startled out, all landing by the sea to check, because they found that the sea surface suddenly subsided, giving a sense of the world shaking.

Huang Yingying, gazing into the distance, felt unsure. He could sense battles in the distance, the one who took action was very powerful, stronger than him. Could trouble have happened over where Shi Chun and the others were?

He heard Wu Jinliang mention, they were on another island with others.

Standing at the bottom of the sea, Li Hongjiu just opened his eyes, gazing at the magical spectacle of water curtains obscuring the sky.

He actually didn't want to help Shi Chun and his group, being seen was inappropriate, after all, he was part of the Nanshan Team, helping others seize tokens was out of line, later there would be difficulty explaining to the senior brother in Nanshan Royal Court.

But the commotion outside the cave evidently couldn't be stopped, sitting by watching Wu Jinliang and them die wouldn't be proper. If Wu Jinliang and they died, he wouldn't be able to be independent within the cave, after all, he would have to face it.

Therefore, he made a move.

Since he had already acted, he wouldn't leave others to tangle, hence the scope of the attack was so large, affecting all intruders.

Suddenly, intense booming sounds echoed again, the seafloor trembled, faintly immense torrents rushed in all directions, stirring up turbidity, truly vast and mighty, while the airborne seawater hadn't yet fallen.

Li Hongjiu turned around and floated away.

After a while, the airborne seawater finally fell.

Yan Zhili emerged from the airborne spray first, already soaked, his armor shattered and gone, in a sorry state.

Followed by the pale-faced Lu Zhanying and others.

Few people emerged, among East Victory's tens of thousands, only a few hundred struggled to escape desperately, most had lost their armor, truly not daring to linger, who could withstand another blow? Everyone pursued Yan Zhili's direction, fleeing in sorry haste.

Even Yan Zhili feared running slow, eyes lingering with residual dread, occasionally looking back to see how many survivors remained, just now understanding the meaning behind Commander Wei Mo's urging to retreat; this was utterly unwinnable.

Inside, he cursed wildly at Wei Mo's insanity, just this, and yet commanding him to lead troops to pursue, isn't it brainless?

This time, he truly remembered the name Li Hongjiu deeply, it was right what the Sect and Command Center said to be cautious when seeing him.

West Ox Team, a group of demon riders with massive bodies emerged first from the water, issuing tremorous clucking noises. Their skin indeed was thick and roughed, not much loss, less than ten though injured seemed numerous, movements appeared clumsy.

Quickly followed by two Phoenix Clan members and other survivors, perhaps demon cultivators had resilient physiques, surprisingly more than three hundred survived.

This group also hurriedly fled, the two Phoenix Clan members didn't care about Feng Yin's life, fled first without a doubt.

No choice, the disparity was too great, running slow might mean death.

Led by Chongxing from Thunder Sound Sect, over thirty others also escaped, though due to excessive mana consumption before, Chongxing was quite heavily injured this time.

Over twenty thousand troops, only more than five hundred were lucky enough to escape.

This was mainly because most were observing high above, with battle armor for protection, otherwise survivors would be even fewer.

On West Ox Command Center's high platform, in Commander Niu Qian's nearly desperate gaze, the mirror image showed a color phoenix revealed in its original form, breaking the water, struggling to flap its wings, missing numerous feathers, looking wretchedly fleeing. It was Feng Yin.

Niu Qian, seeing this, was both glad and surprised, quickly transmitted, "Quickly contact him, have him discard the Centurion Token and escape into the water!"

This was imperative, otherwise Feng Yin's life would be at risk, given Feng Yin's condition, other teams sure would strike while wounded to eradicate the threat.

Simply relying on the current situation already put Niu Qian's heart on edge, with Feng Yin's slow flight speed, even transformation couldn't be maintained, obviously heavily injured, if there were still attacks from the island, Feng Yin's life was in jeopardy.

Fortunately, no further attacks came, Li Hongjiu didn't pursue relentlessly, unwilling to expose himself in the Heavenly Mirror, stopping after one strike.

Vast waves swept over the entire island, repeatedly sweeping, uprooting all plant life with just a few rounds.

Mu Lanqing and others rooted as if planted, stood firmly on the tidal-covered island, unaware of the outside situation, not daring to easily emerge.

Suddenly, amidst the towering waves, a hole appeared, Li Hongjiu opened a pathway not caring and strolled out, unaffected by the tide shifts, calmly walked towards the healing cave earlier, passing by Mu Lanqing only glancing faintly, unfamiliar.

Mu Lanqing turned to watch him go, finally realizing who had just taken action and that a previous crisis had ended.

"Brother Jiu is formidable!"

At the cave entrance by the corner wall, Wu Jinliang enthusiastically fawned, adept at reading the wind, returning to his original form.

As Li Hongjiu brushed past him, without pause, he softly remarked, "Should find quite a few tokens in the sea."

"Brother Jiu is wise…" Wu Jinliang, his eyes lighting up, turned to cheer, danced with joy.

Before the water inside the cave had completely drained, another great wave came, whacked him back into the cave in exuberance, stealthily attacked by the giant wave.
