As each formation core was collected, the formation materials were piled together.
The coconut grove without the array was just an ordinary coconut grove. The formation materials, stacked beneath the coconut trees, glittered.
Bai Sha glanced at them a few times before retracting her gaze. She lifted her pectoral fin and looked at the token.
Right now, besides the outermost Beach Maze Array, there was one more active array on Lost Island: the island’s core array.
The reason Lost Island never appeared in the world and only recently surfaced abruptly was because that formation had malfunctioned.
If the formation hadn’t malfunctioned, the Lost Island would have remained hidden forever.
Currently, not even Bai Sha could approach this array. It was located deep underground. Someone knowledgeable in arrays could make the formation hidden beneath the island’s surface emerge, but Bai Sha, who merely controlled the token, couldn’t do that.
However, she could still use the array to a limited extent.
“Hide once more.”
Bai Sha murmured, gripping the token tightly with her pectoral fin to exert influence over the core array.
She called that array the Lost Array!
As the Lost Array activated again, the entire island immediately vanished from the sea’s surface. Simultaneously, all the demon cultivators on the Beach Maze Array were instantly expelled.
Not long ago.
Outside Lost Island, Bingning and Xiaokui were watching the island with worry.
“I wonder what’s going on inside the island? How are Yin Sha and Bai Sha doing?” Xiaokui sighed. “I want to go in and take a look too.”
Bingning held Xiaokui back and said, “Don’t be reckless. Be careful of accidents.”
Xiaokui said helplessly, “I know, I’m just worried about them.”
Bingning was also worried, but worry aside, there wasn’t much else they could do.
Just as Bingning was about to say something more, a series of startled cries rang out around them, causing her and Xiaokui to turn and look.
When they saw the scene before them, their eyes widened in shock.
The island?
What happened to that massive island?
In what felt like the blink of an eye, the enormous island that had been right in front of them vanished without a trace. How could such a sight not shock them?
With the island gone, a massive empty pit remained in its original location. The surrounding seawater surged frantically, rushing turbulently towards that spot, trying to fill the void.
“Careful!”
Many demon cultivators cried out in alarm. Caught off guard, they were swept away by the seawater.
“Xiaokui!”
Bingning hurriedly grabbed Xiaokui but was also swept away by the water right after.
The experience was far from pleasant. She and Xiaokui were caught in the current, unable to control themselves. Even though they were both at the Late Qi Condensation stage, they were still spun around dizzily.
Fortunately, beyond this, no other dangers appeared.
Once her head cleared, Bingning looked at Xiaokui, whom she had been holding onto all this time. “Are you okay, Xiaokui?”
“I’m fine.” Xiaokui shook her body, then asked in astonishment, “What exactly happened? Why did Lost Island suddenly disappear?”
“I don’t know. Let’s head to the surface first.”
Bingning looked around. The other demon cultivators who had been caught in the current had also recovered and were now swimming towards the surface one after another.
They likewise swam towards the surface. It wasn’t long before they broke through the water and reached the surface, golden sunlight shining down upon them.
All around them, the sea was churning with waves, glistening under the sunlight. Demon cultivators emerged on the surface one after another, chattering intensely.
“It’s Yin Sha and Bai Sha!”
Xiaokui had sharp eyes and quickly pointed in a direction with a tentacle.
Bingning looked that way and breathed a sigh of relief. “Looks like they’re fine. Let’s head over.”
Lost Island had vanished abruptly, and all the demon cultivators inside were expelled. The ones who just came out were immediately surrounded by the demon cultivators who had been waiting outside, who bombarded them with questions, eager to understand what had happened inside.
Bai Sha and Yin Sha were also surrounded. Encircling them was a group of demon cultivators led by Star River Tortoise. The leader, Star River Tortoise, was even a Foundation Establishment demon cultivator!
“What happened inside?”
Star River Tortoise approached them, his eyes fixed on them with a sense of pressure.
Their group had sent Profound Mechanism Tortoise, Tianxuan, into the Lost Island. Tianxuan had naturally been expelled as well, but perhaps the sudden disappearance of the island into the sea was too terrifying a sight; Tianxuan had been frightened unconscious and was still in a coma.
Because of this, Xingxing and his group could only ask the other demon cultivators about the situation.
Seeing Xingxing and the other demon cultivators crowding around, Yin Sha gave a proud snort and directly released her aura.
“Foundation Establishment?”
Star River Tortoise, Xingxing, instantly shrunk back.
The other approaching demon cultivators also paused.
Seeing that her cultivation had intimidated everyone, Yin Sha said unhurriedly, “If you want to know what happened, ask someone else. Don’t bother us sisters.”
After saying this, she grabbed Bai Sha’s pectoral fin and left.
No one tried to stop them, not even Xingxing, despite also being at the Foundation Establishment stage.
‘So this is Foundation Establishment? Once you reach it, your confidence is completely different?’
Bai Sha sighed inwardly.
Yin Sha’s pectoral fin was cold and cool, but it felt very comfortable when grasped.
Just like that, Yin Sha led her out of the encirclement of demon beasts.
Bai Sha glanced back.
At the original location of Lost Island, seawater had already rushed back in to fill the void, but the area was still full of violent, turbulent waves that showed no sign of settling.
Initially, Bai Sha thought making Lost Island hide itself meant merely rendering it invisible. She hadn’t expected that it would literally disappear from its spot. How was such a feat even accomplished?
This was likely something only understandable after reaching a certain level of knowledge in formations.
Although Lost Island had completely vanished, Bai Sha only needed to use the token to make it reappear. As for the token, she had already stored it inside her Blue Spirit Pearl.
Retracting her gaze, Bai Sha feigned surprise as if she had only just realized Yin Sha had broken through. “Sister Yin Sha, you actually broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage! That’s amazing.”
Hearing Bai Sha’s astonished words, Yin Sha proudly tilted her head up. “Hehe, I didn’t expect I could break through this time either. Bai Sha, do you know what level of Dao Foundation I used to complete my Foundation Establishment?”
“Could it be a Superior Dao Foundation?” Bai Sha asked cooperatively.
“Exactly, a Superior Dao Foundation. Heeheehee, Lost Island is truly a wonderful place. It actually allowed me to find a Superior Dao Foundation. My future is brilliantly bright.”
Yin Sha was overjoyed talking about this, so happy she almost seemed ready to jump up.
