Reunion

Qing Huan Xiang and the other finally had a moment to catch their breath, and they couldn't help but look back over their shoulders.

To their surprise, they found another giant turtle standing behind them. Although it was not as ancient and massive as the old turtle, its entire body radiated a surging power of bloodline!

After a quick glance, Qing Huan Xiang was the first to express his gratitude.

"Thank you for your assistance..."

"May I ask who you are, fellow cultivator?"

Before he could finish, the old turtle spoke up first!

"Hai'er?!"

Hearing the voice, the newly appeared giant turtle nodded and approached. With red eyes, he spoke to the old turtle.

"Father..."

"I have searched for you for years without any news. To think that we would reunite on the battlefield today, it is truly a blessing from the heavens!"

Hearing this, the old turtle's eyes showed deep emotion, as if his entire body was rejuvenated with life! Even when more black shadows attacked, he blew away hundreds of them with a single breath of water mist!

Then, the old turtle laughed in gratification, looking at the giant figure that was not much shorter than himself with a gaze full of emotion!

"Hai'er!"

"I never expected you to reach such a cultivation realm today. As your father, I am extremely gratified! Today, let father and son fight side by side and slaughter all these foreign enemies!"

Qing Huan Xiang widened his eyes in shock, looking at the old turtle in disbelief!

"This is actually your son?"

Hearing the surprise in his tone, the old turtle couldn't help but reveal a hint of smugness.

"Hehe."

"This is indeed my son, Gui Wanhai, whom I haven't seen for many years. My boy is still young and his cultivation might be lacking, please excuse him!"

Hearing this, Qing Huan Xiang's old face darkened, choking on his words!

"You..."

He had personally experienced that move just now, and he knew better than anyone that this young Gui possessed profound cultivation, and his bloodline power was even more terrifying!

To put it bluntly, even when the old turtle was young, he probably wasn't this formidable!

This old geezer was actually showing off here?!

It was enough to infuriate this Demon Lord to death!

Seeing the two old friends with fire in their eyes and thousands of large and small wounds all over their bodies, and considering they were in the middle of a great battle, Gui Wanhai quickly spoke up to dissuade them.

"Father, Uncle."

"You both are injured and have fought bitterly for a long time. Please leave the formation and rest for a moment. Leave the rest of the battle to me!"

With that said, Gui Wanhai erupted with a thick, desolate, and ancient power. The area around his massive body seemed to flood with ocean tides as he charged straight into the sea of enemies in the sky!

With this giant figure leading the way, a blue, bloody path was forcefully carved through the tide of black shadows!

Seeing this, cultivators from all sides closely followed to pursue and kill, and there were even members of the Sea Tribe bravely advancing alongside him!

"Kill!"

"Follow the Sea Lord and charge!!!"

Gazing from afar at that domineering giant figure, the old turtle and Qing Huan Xiang gladly retreated. Feeling at ease, they transformed back into their human forms and sat cross-legged on the ground to rest and recover.

Looking up at the sky for just a few breaths of time, they saw the battlefield situation completely reverse its previous decline.

The foreign demons were constantly being beaten back!

Gui Wanhai couldn't help but reveal a gratified look and laughed heartily!

"Hahaha..."

Amidst his smugness, he did not forget to raise an eyebrow and show off to his old friend.

"My boy is still young, he has probably only just grasped our Sea Tribe's divine abilities. Please excuse him, excuse him!"

Looking at that smug face, Qing Huan Xiang coldly snorted in anger and turned his head away.

"Hmph!"

Just a moment ago, he was still worried that the old turtle would perish.

He never expected that in the blink of an eye, the other party's son would come to their aid so valiantly. He really let this old guy show off successfully!

Although the battle had taken a turn for the better and the Shadow Island now had hope, which should have been an extremely joyous matter, seeing this old bastard showing off there made Qing Huan Xiang unable to suppress the gloominess in his heart!

They had competed for years without a clear winner, but he never imagined he would lose to the other party's son!

Look at his son, his domineering aura leaking out, already having become the contemporary Sea Lord!

Even the green hair on his head was so handsomely striking.

Then look at his own Demon Tribe lineage. Let alone a decent junior, there wasn't even a presentable helper; they were all just small fries shouting amidst the crowd...

Comparing demons to demons really infuriates a demon to death!

After being gloomy for a few breaths, Qing Huan Xiang was also helpless, but he noticed a clue.

"Sigh..."

"Old turtle, your son indeed has profound cultivation and extremely thick bloodline power. It is truly a great thing that he could come to help our Shadow Island, but I really cannot figure out how he could become so formidable while living in the outside world?"

Hearing this, the old turtle's smile suddenly froze.

Pondering for a few breaths, his eyes also revealed confusion.

"In just a few short years, he has actually reached such a realm."

"This boy has indeed progressed at a divine speed, it is a bit strange..."

Looking closer, they found that it wasn't just Gui Wanhai; the geniuses from other planets were also unexpectedly powerful.

There was even someone who used a never-before-heard devouring divine ability! With a single move, over a hundred foreign demons were devoured into nothingness by that person!

Such a terrifying method had never been awakened even in the Demon Tribe, and even an ancestor-level existence like Qing Huan Xiang watched with wide eyes.

Grandmaster Lu and the others who were resting and recovering on the ground were no exception. They were also alarmed by the various extraordinary divine abilities, quietly raising their eyes and looking at each other in dismay.

"These reinforcing cultivators truly have remarkable combat power..."

"I also didn't expect that so many fellow cultivators would come to help, and I especially didn't expect them to possess such combat power!"

"That's right, these people are far stronger than when we first entered the Shadow Island."

"Could it be that the outside world has become so formidable nowadays?"

"Over the years, we have always fought to the death to defend the Shadow Island and have never heard any news from the outside world. We truly do not know what has happened on the various planets."

"I don't know either..."

"It seems we can only wait until the current battle temporarily subsides to ask them about it."

After a few words, the higher-ups of the Shadow Island hurried to seize the time to rest and recover.

Afterward, people continuously threw themselves back into the battlefield. Although they had not yet recovered to their peak state, once their terrifying combat power was revealed, it shocked the cultivators from the various planets, leaving them secretly speechless!

With the Shadow Island and the strong reinforcements from the various planets working together, after a bitter battle lasting a full day, they finally managed to block the influx of black shadows!

Only after Lu Qingshan finished his recovery, with Wu Yonghong and the crowd assisting from the side, were they barely able to repair the widened rift and cracks.

With the support of almost the entire galaxy, this catastrophe was temporarily averted.

The Shadow Island finally returned to the stable state it had been in a few days prior.

Unfortunately, this peace was only temporary, and the sacrifices made were immense. If there was another bloody battle that broke through the restrictions, it was unknown how many casualties there would be.

The cracked restriction in the sky was like a terrifying thunder ready to explode at any moment, hanging over everyone's hearts.

Even though this battle ended in victory, no one was overly joyous.

The entire Shadow Island was immersed in a heavy atmosphere of sorrow and exhaustion. The strong reinforcements from the outside planets also deeply empathized, their expressions very solemn.

In order to discuss future plans.

Apart from the various divisions left to guard the rift, everyone else headed to the city center for a meeting. The leaders and higher-ups of the cultivators from the various planets were naturally invited as well.

By the time the battlefield was settled, apart from the remaining divisions taking turns to rest and recover, the experts from the various planets were invited away, and it was already late at night!
