Han Wangshan’s face bore no trace of joy, but instead a hint of worry: "The calmer it is, the more abnormal it is. The sea tribe has occupied this place for many years with strict rules. Although Yubian is... unconventional, his subordinates shouldn’t be this lax. I’m afraid there’s been a major upheaval up ahead, capturing most of their attention."
As he spoke, a battered figure stumbled out from a relatively stable space node ahead, covered in blood with a weakened aura. It was a Qi Refiner of the Fifth Realm under Master Qingsong’s command.
Upon seeing Xu Guang and Han, the figure was initially taken aback. But after noticing the subtle sea tribe forbidden technique aura on Han Wangshan, he became even more desperate and was about to fight for his life.
"Wang Daoist, wait!" Xu Guang recognized the person and immediately spoke out, simultaneously suppressing his surrounding demonic thoughts to reveal a sliver of pure Human Race Source Qi, "It’s me, Xu Guang."
The cultivator surnamed Wang paused, carefully identifying Xu Guang, and finally recognizing him. He clung to this lifeline, urgently saying, "Xu... Xu Guang Daoist! Hurry, save Master Qingsong and the others!"
"What happened?" Xu Guang’s heart sank.
"We... we followed the plan to try to assault the realm bridge from within and assist the outside... but unexpectedly... encountered Yuanbo!" The Wang cultivator’s face held remnants of fear.
"Yuanbo is too strong! I originally thought the Great Dragon Elephant Demon was the strongest in the Second Nirvana, until I met this fiend! Our people... suffered heavy casualties, Master Qingsong and Master Duanyue fought desperately to cover our retreat, and I only barely escaped to report."
"Yuanbo..." Xu Guang’s expression turned grave. From the memory of the refined sea tribe, he deeply understood this fiend’s terror. He was acknowledged as the pinnacle existence in the Sea Tribe’s Second Nirvana Realm, his true form a kind of ancient alien species called the ’Sea-Overturning Demon Whale,’ possessing immense strength and command over all waters. Once he unfolds his ’Sea Overturning Domain,’ few of the same rank can resist him.
"What about the outside? Who is attacking the realm bridge from there?"
Xu Guang pressed on, as this was his greatest concern.
The Wang cultivator answered between breaths.
"I... I didn’t see clearly, but I heard the roar of an Ancient Elephant, a tremendously powerful force, seemingly... more than one prominent master attacking the realm bridge!"
The roar of the Ancient Elephant!
Xu Guang’s heart stirred upon hearing this.
It’s General Wei!
Since General Wei has appeared, presumably the Demon Hunters and even his own master, the True King Tianwu, are aware of the situation.
It seems what Master Qingsong told me was true, that they indeed have contact with the outside world, and through some channel, have reached out to my Demon Hunter.
"Understood, Wang Daoist, find a place to heal first."
Xu Guang handed over a bottle of Healing Pills, having made a decision in his heart.
The realm bridge is the only path to survival. Now, besieged from inside and outside, though it is a crisis, it might also be the best opportunity!
After sending the Wang cultivator off, Xu Guang squinted his eyes, looking toward where the realm bridge was located.
"Fellow Daoist Han, what do you think we should do?"
Han Wangshan, filled with concerns, pondered and then spoke, "Perhaps... we could use the forbidden technique on me to blend into the sea tribe first and gather intelligence?"
Xu Guang frowned.
"That could work."
The two didn’t hesitate any longer, speeding up their pace, stealthily moving along the river boundary toward the area with the most turbulence.
The closer they got to the realm bridge, the more scattered sea tribe members they encountered, the atmosphere growing increasingly tense and murderous.
Occasionally, they could see teams of elite sea tribe members hurriedly mobilizing, all heading toward the realm bridge.
Along the way, they passed through a relatively open reef area, where a large number of sea tribe members were encamped. These were of a single type, covered in silver scales with a single horn on their heads—strange fish numbering in the tens of thousands, their Demonic Qi forming a vast cloud, stirring the weather.
These strange fish seemed to be resting here but were undisciplined and noisy, blocking the way.
Not wanting to cause an additional disturbance, Xu Guang attempted to detour around them.
However, a group of these strange fish spotted them.
To Xu Guang’s exasperation, despite sensing the Yubian aura on Han Wangshan, these strange fish had no qualms and charged directly.
"Truly... asking for death!"
Xu Guang narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning lethal.
These strange fish, low in intelligence, were most likely under Qing Si, one of the six great Sea Tribe masters. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
This adversary, an evolved salmon known as the Silver Shuttle Ancestor, had many offspring under his command and was particularly antagonistic towards Yubian. freewёbnoνel.com
It was likely these dim-witted Silver Shuttle Fish, detecting the Yubian Forbidden Technique on Han Wangshan, that initiated the attack instead.
With this in mind, Xu Guang didn’t hesitate any longer.
Now having perfected the Five Emperors Tour Heaven, the subsequent cultivation after the First Nirvana was smooth sailing. As long as he quietly accumulated and consolidated his gains during this period, he could seek the opportunity to break through to the Dharmakaya State.
At that time, he would need a vast amount of experience to deduce the subsequent Cultivation Technique of the Five Emperors Tour Heaven.
At present, it is a good time to accumulate strength.
"Courting death!"
Xu Guang no longer hid his strength, moving like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.
"The Green Emperor governs the years, all sounds are silent!" The phantom of the Green Emperor’s true form flashed, and the invisible essence of the years spread like ripples. Several dozen silver shuttle fish demons at the front faltered instantly, the light in their eyes dimming as their vitality was forcibly stripped away, causing them to collapse softly.
"The Black Emperor commands the waters, the residual rain leaves no trace!" The Black Emperor’s true form manipulated the water currents, countless pitch-black chains of Profound Ice shot out from the void, precisely entangling the fish demons attempting to flank, instantly freezing their demonic power and divine souls with extreme cold.
"The Fire Emperor scorches the heavens, Red Lotus Karmic Fire!" The Fire Emperor’s true form appeared, and with a wave of his sleeve, clusters of blood-red lotuses bloomed amidst the fish swarm, the Karmic Fire burning their bodies and scorching their souls, causing a symphony of woeful screams.
Xu Guang moved like the Grim Reaper walking the human world; the three powerful forms cooperated seamlessly, the phantom of a flesh and blood grinding wheel formed by the Zang Divine Technique loomed faintly behind, madly devouring the blood and demonic power of the slaughtered sea creatures.
He hadn’t even used his demonic thoughts, just relying on Martial Arts Divine Power, he had charged in and out of these thousands of fish demons seven times!
Silver sparkling scales mixed with blood splattered everywhere, and severed limbs covered the rocks.
Wherever Xu Guang passed, it was like mowing down grass, swathes of fish demons fell, becoming nourishment for the Zang Blood Sun.
His aura did not diminish in the slaughter, instead growing more intense and fierce.
Han Wangshan followed behind, his heart pounding with alarm.
He knew Xu Guang was strong, but he didn’t expect him to be this strong!
These silver shuttle fish demons, though individually not very powerful, formed a massive array with some lethality, yet in front of Xu Guang, they crumbled like paper, unable to withstand a single blow!
In less than the time of an incense stick burning, nearly half of the tens of thousands of silver shuttle fish demons were slaughtered by Xu Guang! The remaining fish demons finally broke down, emitting terrified screams and fleeing in all directions.
Xu Guang snorted coldly, "Want to leave?"
In an instant, the sky changed dramatically, countless demonic clouds surged, demonic thoughts overwhelming.
"Demonic Tribulation!"
With a thought, something resembling a giant coral tower appeared in the space, the fleeing silver shuttle fish were instantly eroded by the demonic thoughts.
Blood Sun Zang, the grinding wheel of life and death rumbled.
In the blink of an eye, all vitality in the space vanished without a trace.
"You... Are you really in the First Nirvana Realm? What’s that black thing?"
Han Wangshan was shocked, he could tell Xu Guang wasn’t an ordinary First Nirvana expert, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to enter the space he was in, since it was guarded by a Second Nirvana sea creature.
But still, he hadn’t expected Xu Guang’s combat power to be so astonishing as to cause shock.
Xu Guang didn’t answer, merely glanced at the dashboard.
Nearly ten billion experience points, not that much.
Oh well, the vitality from these sea creatures was substantial, after refinement, Zang’s feedback to himself could further strengthen his physical body.
Perhaps, there might be a chance to contend with that White Tick Demon King encountered in the Lost Sea.
The opponent’s indestructible body was something Xu Guang envied strongly.
...
Not long after the two left.
"Who dares to slaughter my offspring?!!!"
A voice boomed, carrying the terrifying pressure of a Demon King, causing the entire reef area to tremble.
The distant sea surface exploded, a gigantic figure burst out of the water, it resembled a giant salmon with dragon whiskers, its body covered with thick silver bone armor, and eyes ablaze with furious flames!
It was one of the six top experts guarding the inter-realm bridge of the sea race, the progenitor of the Silver Shuttle Fish Clan—Qing Si!
Qing Si’s real form was an alien species of salmon, with powerful bloodlines, and what was rare was its astonishing reproduction ability, with many offspring under its command, forming a considerable force in the inter-realm bridge guard army.
Xu Guang had just slaughtered a batch of its most beloved direct descendants!
"Human brat! This king will skin you alive, draw out your tendons, and use your divine soul to make a lamp, in offering to the spirits of my sons in heaven!"
Qing Si surveyed the scene of carnage in rage, its massive demon body stirred the clouds, opening its mouth to spew a silver torrent infused with corrosive and icy power; where this torrent passed, even the space sizzled, as if about to be melted away.
But after a while, it had almost overturned the entire space, yet not a trace of others could be seen.
Only left with impotent fury.
