Time flew by, and a month passed.
In this month, there were many amazing changes in the war between the Seven Blood Pupils and the Sea Corpse Clan. First of all, the Sea Corpse Clan could not seize the Mermaid Clan's island despite several counterattacks.
They could only watch as the Seven Blood Pupils continued to strengthen the Mermaid Clan's island. At the same time, they sent over more magic weapons and all their allies.
This was too great a threat to the Sea Corpse Clan.
However, the Sea Corpse Clan was not without success. When they divided their forces, they finally tore down the Pearl Islands and occupied it as their headquarters.
All the forbidden pills buried by the Seven Blood Snakes were taken out by the Sea Corpse Clan powerhouses. The entire Pearl Islands were searched many times. After confirming that there were no problems, they were relieved.
For the Sea Corpse Clan, this was a strategic victory. For the Seven Blood Pupils, it was equivalent to a mistake in the nearby area.
And this mistake was extremely fatal, causing the Seven Blood Pupils to be very passive for more than half a month. There were two times when they were attacked from the front and back, and they almost lost the Mermaid Clan's island.
Even the Third Summit's Peak Master was ambushed by many powerhouses of the Sea Corpse Clan and almost died. He used a strange substitute to escape with serious injuries.
The Sixth Summit's Peak Master was also ambushed and seriously injured.
As for the Gold Core elders, more than a dozen of them were on the verge of death. This was a great blow to the morale of the Seven Blood Pupils. For a time, the number of people participating in the mission also decreased sharply.
This was actually the drawback of the Seven Blood Fish's rules. When the wind was favorable, they could be like wolves and tigers. Once they were at a disadvantage, the people's hearts would easily collapse, and it would be extremely difficult to recover.
Just as the Sea Corpse Clan increased the layout of the Pearl Islands, the Seven Blood Pupils' counterattack came.
It was a night half a month ago. With an earth-shattering roar, Xu Qing, who had completed a small mission and returned to Return Island to rest, saw with his own eyes that mountains appeared on the sea.
These mountains were connected together and gradually formed a vast mountain range.
As the sea rolled, the mountain range slowly emerged as if it had turned into a back. Xu Qing controlled the Forbidden Sea Serpent Dragon and was shocked to see a giant beast under the sea.
Xu Qing faintly felt that this giant beast was familiar, and he soon recognized that it was a sea lizard!
The mountain range that emerged was the back of the sea lizard!
It was vast and boundless, and its aura was astonishing. Compared to its body, the Pearl Archipelago was like an ant, insignificant.
The Ocean Lizard had only flipped its body slightly when it arrived, and the Pearl Islands had all collapsed with a rumble.
After being torn apart, the Sea Lizard, which had only revealed a small part of its back from the beginning to the end, leisurely left.
This time, the Sea Lizard's attack shocked all the Sea Corpses to the extreme. This kind of existence had surpassed a certain level. It was not something the Seven Blood-pupil could easily ask for help from.
However, it had appeared, and its target was very clear — the Pearl Islands.
Xu Qing was also shocked by this. Seven Blood Pupils quickly announced the answer in order to raise morale. In fact, he even revealed some of the Peak Lord of the Fourth Peak.
The announcement informed all the disciples that the Sea Lizard's attack this time was due to the Fourth Summit's contribution. The Fourth Summit's Summit Master had a relationship with this Giant Lizard in the early years. This time, he had invited it to destroy the Pearl Islands.
At the same time, he told the disciples that this matter had been agreed upon long ago. All the previous arrangements of the Pearl Islands were a cover-up. The purpose was to let the Sea Corpse Clan attack. The so-called forbidden pill was just a distraction.
…
The entire Pearl Islands was a huge trap prepared for the Sea Corpse Clan.
This matter raised the morale of the Seven Blood-pupil for a while. However, the people of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan were not fools. There were also scheming people in the Sea Corpse Clan. After all kinds of analysis, the statement of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan's higher-ups might be correct, but it was only partially correct.
If the Peak Lord of the Fourth Summit could really ask the Giant Lizard for help, there was no need to target the Pearl Islands. Whether it was the outpost islands or the main island of the Sea Corpse Clan, it was obviously a better choice. Therefore, there were various guesses about the truth of this matter. Some people even felt that this matter had something to do with the ancestor of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan.
However, other than the higher-ups of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan, no one else knew the truth.
And the truth had already happened. The Pearl Islands were no longer there, and the Sea Corpse Clan had suffered a great loss.
At the same time, the Seven Blood-pupil Clan also took advantage of the Sea Corpse Clan's mistake this time to launch a general attack. While breaking the encirclement of the Sea Corpse Clan on the Mermaid Clan, it also sounded the horn of the first decisive battle.
The Sea Corpse Clan's army was constantly shrinking, resisting, and retreating. The Seven Blood Birds were also chasing them with all their might. They broke through layers of defense and moved the battlefield away from the Mermaid Clan's island, pushing them to the edge of the Mermaid Clan's territory.
There were only seven outpost islands away from the mainland of the Sea Corpse Clan, which was the last line of defense of the Sea Corpse Clan.
At such a close distance, the pressure on the Sea Corpse Clan was even greater. At this time, with the tenacious counterattack of the Sea Corpse Clan, a stalemate occurred.
As for the casualties, both sides had suffered, but relatively speaking, the Sea Corpse Clan had more casualties.
However, the casualties of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan were still shocking, so there was the first batch of people who applied to withdraw from the battle. The Seven Blood-pupil Clan did not refuse. Those who met the conditions agreed to withdraw from the battle. However, at the same time, the Seven Blood-pupil Clan gave more war rewards, and also distributed the first batch of Core Formation opportunities.
In addition, two trump cards were released. The first was that the Seven Blood-pupil Clan issued 50 quotas for the use of magic treasures.
Every disciple in the top 50 with war points was qualified to borrow the projection of the clan's heritage magic treasures.
Magic treasures were legendary items. The power of any one of them was earth-shattering and far beyond imagination. There was only one in the entire Seven Blood-pupil Clan.
Therefore, even if it was a projection, its power would be shocking.
This news immediately caused a sensation among all the participating disciples of the clan. The second trump card was even more shocking, and that was …
The Ancestor was accepting disciples!
This time, the Ancestor of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan would accept ten Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators as inner disciples and three Gold Core Realm cultivators as personal disciples after the battle!
The disciples would be selected according to the degree of completion of the mission and the number of Sea Corpse Clan members killed.
As soon as the news came out, most of the disciples of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan were shocked. Even some who originally wanted to withdraw from the battle gave up and continued to stay on the battlefield.
This was because the Ancestor of the Seven Blood-pupil Clan had not accepted any disciples for many years. However, he, who had made a breakthrough in his cultivation, was accepting disciples this time. It could be imagined that if one was chosen, their status and benefits would reach an extremely high level.
If one could become an inner disciple, it would be like a carp leaping over the dragon gate. Their status would only be lower than that of a peak master and surpass that of an elder.
As for personal disciples?
Just thinking about it could make one's breathing quicken and their eyes turn red.
Not to mention the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, even the Gold Core Realm cultivators of the various peaks were moved. Clearly, even they did not know that the clan would release such a temptation at this time.
From this, it could be seen that the Seven Blood-pupil Clan was determined to get the Sea Corpse Clan in this battle.
…
Xu Qing was also extremely tempted, but he quickly suppressed his thoughts. Although this matter was extremely tempting to him, he knew that there were many powerhouses in the sect. He was not the strongest among the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, and each peak had cultivators who had activated three Life Fires.
With these people around, it would be difficult for him to fight for it even if he risked his life.
However, Xu Qing looked at his ranking and felt that he could get the 50 spots for the Magic Treasure.
After all, although the war points were different from the battle results, it was a comprehensive ranking that included missions and killings. At the same time, it also had a high requirement for the quality of the missions.
However, because Xu Qing had crazily accepted missions and accumulated battle results, his ranking was not low.
"73," Xu Qing muttered and continued to accept missions.
Just like that, time passed, and another half a month passed. Xu Qing's ranking continued to rise as he accepted missions and killings, and he reached the 59th place.
His Dharma Apertures also opened up more and more in the killings of the Sea Corpse Clan, reaching 44.
The further he went, the more souls he would need.
On this day, Xu Qing, who had just accepted a reinforcement mission, suddenly received a summon from his identity medallion. Amidst the scrolling list of missions, a summon that was exclusive to him appeared in his identity medallion.
The appearance of this token was obviously of extremely high authority. It directly erased all the missions on Xu Qing's identity token and made him the only one. Even the mission he had just accepted was given an indication that it had been completed, allowing him to obtain the reward without any effort.
"Xu Qing, Foundation Establishment Realm disciple of the Seventh Summit, come to the command tent of the Detention Island immediately. The Vice Summit Master of the Seventh Summit summons you!
When he saw this message, Xu Qing was stunned. After muttering to himself for a while, many guesses and thoughts appeared in his mind, but he could not make heads or tails of them. He did not know this Vice Peak Master, and had never even heard of him before.
However, the message on the identity token was unmistakable. In fact, while Xu Qing was muttering to himself, this message appeared many times and locked onto his identity token, preventing him from continuing to accept missions.
Hence, after Xu Qing thought about it, he leaped up and headed straight for Detention Island.
With his speed, even though he did not activate his Profound Brilliance Form, he was still very fast. Before long, Xu Qing arrived at Detention Island and headed straight for the huge eyeball at the center of the island.
This was the core of the Seven Blood Pupils' frontline command center on Mermaid Island.
Usually, the disciples were not allowed to approach this place without being summoned. It was a top secret place.
At that moment, as Xu Qing approached, terrifying Divine Wills immediately locked onto him.
Even the giant eyeball swept its gaze across his body in that instant.
Xu Qing no longer moved forward. He took out his identity token and spoke in a low voice.
"Disciple Xu Qing has been summoned by the Vice Peak Master of the Seventh Peak.
As he spoke, his identity token shone with a bright light. The eyeball on the ground blinked three times, and the power of teleportation appeared around Xu Qing. Before he could even react, he was gone.
It was only after Xu Qing was teleported away that the Divine Wills in the area faded away.
At this moment, inside the eyeball, Xu Qing's figure was instantly teleported over in front of a grand hall.
When he appeared, he quickly looked around. In the next instant, a woman's voice could be heard behind him.
"You're Xu Qing?
