Chapter 216: Burning Sea of Wrath

~12 min read 2,324 words

The Sixth Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes, this entire mountain mass, had long since been refined by Sixth Master over these years, becoming a strategic fortress.

Aside from himself, no one knew exactly how many magic treasures existed within this Sixth Peak, or exactly what kind of heaven-shaking might it could unleash.

Today was also the first time this Sixth Peak war fortress had been deployed.

Although its might had not yet been fully unleashed, merely its shift across the sea had already stirred up massive waves in everyone's hearts.

Shifting—that was a divine ability even more profound than teleportation; the former had a greater range and required more magic power, and to be able to shift this entire mountain mass, one could imagine that the core power within this war fortress must be shocking.

The next instant, this massive mountain mass appeared in the sky above the Forbidden Sea, whistling forward as it tore through the air toward the distance.

Wherever it passed, the sea below churned and spread, and countless sea beasts trembled on the seabed, not daring to approach the surface.

Furthermore, merchant ships on the sea drifted like leaves; the cultivators inside, upon looking up and seeing this massive mountain mass roaring past, felt their emotions fluctuate violently, their expressions incomparably horrified.

And within the mountain mass at this moment, Xu Qing was the same; even the Captain was not calm, his eyes red as he looked left and right, his gaze glowing.

In front of the two of them was Sixth Master, holding a wine flask and gazing into the distance.

His expression was gloomy, and a sea of blood seemed to be rising within his body; the intensity of his killing intent affected the sky, causing thunder to roll across the firmament as the Sixth Peak mountain mass traveled, with bolts of lightning spreading and exploding all around like the tail flames of silver snakes.

The momentum was astonishing.

"The Sea Star race is a small race; their tribal strength, let alone compared to my Seven Blood Eyes, cannot even compare to the Mermaid race. There are only seven Core Formation cultivators within their sect."

"Now, three are already dead, and four remain," Sixth Master said calmly.

"The strongest Sea Star Ancestor is at the Great Perfection of Core Formation, but I suspect he should have broken through long ago and has simply been hiding it. Aside from him, the other three Core Formation cultivators are all in the early stage."

"This also includes that patriarch of the Sea Star race; this patriarch has a bloodline connection to their race's ancestor and is his offspring, which is why he became the patriarch."

"Overall, this is just a small race, and for such a small race to have the audacity to provoke the Seven Blood Eyes and other races possessing heaven-gifted geniuses, it doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it."

"Therefore, Xu Qing, you must be cautious after you go; the Sea Star race... may harbor some great secrets," Sixth Master said calmly.

Xu Qing nodded silently.

The Captain didn't speak; taking advantage of the fact that Xu Qing and Sixth Master weren't paying attention to him, he stepped back a few paces and touched the mountain rocks on the ground, the light in his eyes intensifying. Clearly... he liked this treasure very much.

But before the Captain could examine it for too long, as the Sixth Peak hummed again, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the stars shifted; the entire mountain mass shifted once more, and this time... it appeared directly in the mid-air of the Sea Star race.

The Sea Star race was located between the Seven Blood Eyes and the Mermaid race islands; their tribal territory consisted of only one island, which looked like a giant sea star when viewed from mid-air, but it had been confirmed that its appearance had been modified by the Sea Star race later on, and there was not actually a sea star of that size residing there.

Viewed from high altitude, one could see that there were five main cities within the Sea Star race, and the buildings were mostly formed from coral; at the same time, the greatest feature was that countless coral trees grew on the island!

This was a type of tree that looked like coral; each one was very tall, emitting five-colored light at night and appearing gray during the day.

At the same time, many buildings were built on these huge coral trees, and the total number of Sea Star tribesmen was about a hundred thousand; because of the protection of the Seven Blood Eyes, they had not suffered much turmoil over the years, and it looked quite prosperous now.

The appearance of the Sixth Peak immediately caught the attention of the Sea Star race; although they did not recognize this massive war fortress of the Sixth Peak, the strong within the tribe still sensed the fluctuations of the Seven Blood Eyes' cultivation techniques.

Therefore, almost the instant the Sixth Peak mountain mass appeared, a divine sense radiated from within the Sea Star race.

"Is this a visit from the Seven Blood Eyes upper sect? I do not know which senior has graced our race with their presence; please forgive us for any neglect," following the divine sense was an old man wearing five-colored Daoist robes.

This old man was full of smiles, his inner thoughts unreadable; at this moment, he rose from the ground and cupped his fists toward the Sixth Peak.

But the response to him was a finger pointed by Sixth Master, who was standing on the mountain peak, transformed by monstrous killing intent.

As the finger fell, the incomparably huge Sixth Peak mountain mass, like a seal, pressed fiercely toward the Sea Star race below.

Under this pressure, the world roared and the void shattered; a massive pressure, irresistible and destructive, descended directly onto the Sea Star race, causing all the mountain peaks within the Sea Star race to instantly vibrate and crack, then shatter and collapse.

Even the earth was the same, collapsing and sinking in many places under the arrival of this pressure.

This scene caused the expression of the Sea Star race ancestor, who had come out to greet them, to change.

"Sixth Master, what is the meaning of this!"

"What is the meaning of this? You tell me what Laozi means!"

Sixth Master's killing intent could no longer be suppressed; he spoke in a sinister tone, stepped through the air, and arrived directly in front of the Sea Star race ancestor, raising his right hand and grabbing fiercely.

The sky turned dark, the sun and moon lost their light, and the firmament shattered!

The Sea Star race ancestor could not dodge and was grabbed by the head by Sixth Master; as Sixth Master squeezed fiercely, his body exploded with a boom.

But amidst this explosion, a sea-star-shaped blood shadow flew out from within, reformed its body in the distance, spat out blood, retreated rapidly, and revealed horror in its eyes.

"Sixth Master, is there some misunderstanding!"

Sixth Master looked coldly at the Sea Star race ancestor who had reformed.

"You really were hiding your cultivation; you have already broken through to Nascent Soul, but it doesn't matter, that makes it more interesting... And since you made me endure the pain of losing a son for so many years, I will also make you taste the pain of your race, your tribal land, and everything you have being destroyed before your eyes."

As Sixth Master spoke, he raised his right hand, formed a seal, and pressed down suddenly.

Immediately, the Sixth Peak mountain mass roared and descended rapidly toward the Sea Star race below.

It did not land completely, but stopped after reaching a height of about a thousand zhang in mid-air; strands of blue flame radiated from within the mountain mass, instantly covering the entire Sea Star race island below.

Viewed from afar, these blue flames flowed like heavenly fire, shrouding all directions, and like meteors falling to the ground, roaring across the wilderness, causing the seawater to rise under the high temperature and causing countless buildings on the Sea Star race to instantly burn, while shrill screams echoed continuously.

"Refine for me!"

"Refine your race, refine your tribal land, refine all your bloodlines; I want to refine your Sea Star race alive and turn it into a candle to be lit day and night before my beloved son's grave!"

"

Sixth Master's eyes were blood-red and he was already insane; with a wave of his hand, rows of war magic treasures appeared on the Sixth Peak, erupting in unison to form beams of light that headed straight for the Sea Star race land.

There were also those puppets circling around, each filled with killing intent, rushing toward the Sea Star race to begin the slaughter.

Furthermore, the disciples and Elders of the Sixth Peak also descended at this moment.

This scene caused the Sea Star race ancestor in the sky to look gloomy; he wanted to block them, but the next instant, Sixth Master arrived with killing intent, and the roaring echoed immediately.

The Sea Star race ancestor spat out blood again, his eyes blood-red, and a silver line flashed rapidly within his pupils; his momentum surged, forming a vast storm outside his body that swept in all directions, while Sixth Master's momentum was even stronger as he suppressed him.

At the same time, Xu Qing and the Captain also leaped and headed straight for the ground.

The moment he landed, Xu Qing stepped onto a coral tree.

It was daytime, and the gray coral tree could not withstand the pressure and collapsed; Xu Qing's eyes were blood-red, and the killing intent he had suppressed until now could no longer be held back, and he rushed violently toward the Sea Star race ahead.

The Captain did not go with Xu Qing; after landing, he followed silently behind, because he knew that the baleful energy in Xu Qing's heart was extremely heavy now, and this baleful energy required a large amount of blood and slaughter to be resolved.

To him, the Sea Star race was not important; whether it was the secret instructions given to him by Seventh Master later or the bond of righteousness between him and Xu Qing, both made him hope that Xu Qing could recover as soon as possible.

Therefore, his following this time had only one purpose, and that was... companionship.

"Kill, Junior Brother; in this chaotic world, slaughter is the only outlet. That is how I got through it back then; if you don't destroy a few races, how can you make people fear you?" the Captain muttered, his eyes also filled with madness.

And Xu Qing, in front, had already begun the slaughter.

Xu Qing's Life Fire opened within his body, and the black iron skewer outside his body radiated lightning; wherever Xu Qing's gaze looked was where he struck. For a moment, the roaring was heaven-shaking, and Xu Qing's strikes were swift and astonishing, reaching a Sea Star race Foundation Establishment cultivator in the blink of an eye.

Before the opponent could react, Xu Qing had already slammed into him; amidst the roar, the Sea Star race Foundation Establishment cultivator's body shattered and exploded directly.

And within his flesh and blood, there existed some thread-like silver insects, which were now twisting within the chunks of meat and withered away along with the collapse of the Sea Star race cultivator.

Xu Qing glanced at it and his body flickered, heading straight for the ancestral temple of the Sea Star race in the distance, which was also where the Sea Star race patriarch usually sat in meditation and refined elixirs.

On the way here, Sixth Master had already informed him of all the information obtained from refining souls, and their division of labor was clear: Sixth Master was to seek revenge on the Sea Star race ancestor and simultaneously refine the entire Sea Star race.

And Xu Qing's target was that patriarch, because it was he who had issued the order to assassinate Master Bai.

Therefore, after landing at this moment, Xu Qing's speed was astonishing, and with a burning continent seemingly inside his body, he whistled toward the Sea Star race ancestral temple.

Wherever he passed, as the blue flames fell from the sky, all the buildings were burning, and countless Sea Star tribesmen let out shrill screams in these flames.

The ground was in ruins, visibly melting under the high temperature, and blue flames accumulated in many depressions, seemingly wanting to seep into the soil to refine it at a deeper level.

There were also puppets of the Sixth Peak, carrying Sixth Master's will, killing rapidly, and the disciples of the Sixth Peak were doing the same, executing Sixth Master's orders.

The entire Sea Star race was in chaos; coral trees collapsed, patches of ground caved in, and three of the five main cities were now engulfed in a dense sea of blue flames.

Thick smoke billowed.

Xu Qing's speed was even faster; he instantly approached a Sea Star race cultivator who was trying to stop his advance, and with a wave of his right hand, the Jin Wu Refining All Spirits hissed and inhaled; in an instant, the cultivator's body shuddered and he became a corpse.

Xu Qing did not slow down, the Jin Wu following behind him, its tail flames spreading like a cloak; furthermore, around Xu Qing, a large amount of black mist appeared, forming a ferocious face in mid-air, inside of which were dense swarms of small black insects.

The shadow on the ground was also following rapidly, as was the black iron skewer.

Viewed from afar, Xu Qing at this moment was like a god of slaughter descending into the world; wherever he passed, all who blocked him died!
