As the Sect head and the Grand elder tried to access the Space gate for that Island they realized that they couldn't do so.
The Space gate was blocked from other side.
They widened their eyes in shock and horror as they understood the implications of this happening. By the time, they decided to come and see the situation themselves, their island seemed to have been captured and they already suffered some serious losses.
The captured Island have Space gates connected to the main island of the sect and some other places where people of higher-levels might stay.
That is for the easier inspection of things. There almost eight islands surrounding this one with various resources. This one-third of the Usaine sect's foundation.
Once this captured, it would be almost impossible to evade the capture of the remaining islands.
Sam sent the fleet forward and didn't left them stay within the island, rather some of the troops from the ships are deployed here.
Half of the Sam's troops are traveling with the fleet even though they don't belong to Navy and that is because of situations like this. Since, there are many islands, Sam thought that this would be the best way to deal with it.
After the troops arrived, they started surveying the whole island to prepare for the defence. One Pre-transcendent stage cultivator and four Nascent stage cultivators and the remaining are Grand realm and Great realm cultivators.
These troops are more than enough, at least that is what Sam thought and they started planting all kinds of bombs and traps along with installing the cannons on the Island border and the construction structures.
They didn't waste the single second and so does the fleet.
They moved towards the next island in the vicinity and captured it within half-an-hour. They left some troops and moved forward.
On that day, they successfully captured three islands and finally the Consummate realm cultivators made their move towards the fleet when they are near the fourth island. Due to their injuries, they wanted to wait for a while. Seeing the confidence of the troops that attacked them, they thought that the Yellow sand Island might have a person breakthrough to the Consummate realm.
In their current states, they are not completely fit for fighting a long battle. Due to unleashing their trump cards, they have self-inflicted some injuries themselves and now they tried their best to heal themselves.
The main problem is there is no way they could heal themselves faster, because the only person who could make them medicines that could work on the consummate realm cultivators is dead. Maybe, at this moment no one on this planet has such medicine other than Sam.
Because, he is the only one that picked up the Spatial ring of Old One and he still had a lot of medicines.
But that is not the case here.
Both the Consummate realm cultivators reached the fourth island on their transcendent level beasts as they saw the Naval fleet approaching them.
They didn't let their troops go and battle yet and let the fleet reach the island. After the fleet is at a kilometre or so from the island, they halted right there and Sect head made his move.
He didn't attack, but just neared the area and looked at Arc who is in forefront of the troops with a cold look in his eyes.
"Just Back off. You are not my level yet." He said coldly. Clearly, he could sense that Arc is a Consummate realm cultivator.
"It is not good to be so sure about something."
Arc also replied calmly as he stood on his vulture and increased his altitude to face the sect head.
Not all Consummates have a Consummate level beast as their mount. Only Beast faction has such a great opportunity due to their familiarity with beasts.
Some other Consummates do have one, but Usaine sect is not one of them.
As both of them looked at each other, Usaine sect head didn't even take arc seriously.
Arc also looked at him and said with a smile.
"I will only make one move and that is my strongest move. If you can block without taking any damage, I will leave this place."
"You are weak, why should I give you that chance?"
"I might be weak, but not weak enough for you to kill me in a single blow. Before you managed to capture me, my troops can level yours. My soldiers and methods are clearly superior to yours. Why loose so much manpower?"
"Sure." Sect head agreed after some contemplation.
Arc who started concentrating the lightning energy into the palm of his hand. It started enveloping his hand completely as he squeezed a lot of energy. Not all of it is from his own energy. His remaining arm which behind his back is holding a space jade from which he is absorbing energy non-stop.
After three minutes, the lightning surrounding the palm of his hand is extremely potent and lethal. Sect head frowned. Even though, he felt that this is strong but not strong enough for him to completely quiver in fright. If he is careless, he might receive some critical damage which would reduce his fighting ability.
And there is a big 'if' playing a role in it.
Another Consummate realm cultivator is also hovering on his beast a bit far away as he waited for this fiasco to be over. Because, he still has to recover from his injuries, he is not exactly in the best of his conditions.
At this moment, what both of them didn't notice is that two energy beam cannons are concentrating the energy and just as Arc leaped towards them and Sect head started gathering his energy for defence, the two cannons fired.
But they didn't target the Consummate cultivators themselves, rather the target was their mounts.
They didn't expect this as they couldn't sense any threat to themselves.
Both of them were surprised and couldn't react in time.
Both the beasts took the full blow of the attack and started descending. The Consummate level cultivators doesn't have any way to fly in the air other than their mounts and they felt shocked.
The Sect head had his energy disperse which was supposed to be his defence.
At this moment, he noticed that Arc also leaped towards him followed by the vulture coming from behind him.
Arc stabbed the palm straight into the chest of the sect head. The Sect head tried his best to dodge and avoided hitting his heart, but the palm still stuck inside the chest and the left lung was pierced and the whole body became paralyzed due to the electric jolt it received as he fell into the shallow waters of the island.
Even the Grand elder fell like that, but before he could fall another energy beam hit him. But the damage is not something critical. Arc didn't fall down, but his beast caught him before he did so.
He still floated in the air and once again threw another lightning attack using the sea water surrounding the two for his advantage.
But this time, the grand elder defended himself and jumped out of water, but the sect head took the full brunt of the attack and paralyzed more.
He started circulating spiritual energy completely and tried his best to move. Even with his body like that, he still kicked of his legs and jumped out of the water before the next strike came.
Both the sect head and grand elder looked at Arc with extreme resentment.
After all, this is not what they agreed on. One could say that Arc's methods are despicable, but they can't blame him. After all, they are the ones foolish enough to believe what their enemy said on the battle field.
Now, the sect head is seriously injured and his combat power dropped very much.
Arc jumped off on to the island to engage with him, when the Grand elder about to make a move, he realized that some has already locked on him and when he looked to the side, a golden silhouette formed beside him and took a monkey with humanoid structure.
Sam threw the staff he got from the monkey king towards the illusory clone which had formed from the strand of hair he just threw.
It is necessary to stop this guy no matter what.
Sam's face is already pale as he used all his energy to make the clone manifest. For some weird reason, the clone would only form if his energy tank was completely empty forcing him to use this as a last resort.
He didn't try the clone before and watched it intently. The clone formed has same cultivation level as the Grand elder standing before him and it held the staff Sam threw towards him and made his move.
The clone is extremely powerful and its battle style is extremely similar to the monkey king. He started playing with the Grand elder as if he is enjoying himself in a party.
The battle is extremely one-sided. After all, who among the universe would dare say that they could contend with monkey king in a one on one fight of same level.
