~8 min read 1,598 words

Southern Yu Continent.

Yin Tianshou and Cui Ying had just stepped out of the teleportation array, their expressions somber. They had been suddenly summoned by the Immortal Palace of the Southern Yu Continent, but duty called, and they had to proceed.

"Tianshou, it's been a long time since we last came to this Southern Yu Continent."

"Doesn't this seem a bit off? Why summon us so suddenly? Could something be happening in the Mengmu Sea Region?"

"We are merely the heads of one hall, Tianshou. Let's not overestimate our importance. The real challenge lies ahead. Regarding Chen Xun, someone might hold you accountable."

Cui Ying gave Yin Tianshou a deep look. When he entered the grand world, he was so spirited, but he had offended too many people because of it. "It seems they still don't want to let you off easily."

"Heh, they're just afraid of my overwhelming talent in the Immortal Dao, fearing I might ascend to the position of Heavenly Sovereign."

Yin Tianshou slightly raised his head, stepping forward with firm words, "With such determination, they will surely perish before I do."

He was brought back to reality by Cui Ying's words, no longer thinking about the matters of the Mengmu Sea Region. As long as Chen Xun stayed on Li Chen Island, there would be no trouble. His sister would be safe in the academy, and Yuxuan could protect her.

Outside the teleportation hall, a team of cultivators was already waiting, with a treasure ship docked behind them. They respectfully cupped their hands, speaking in unison:

"Greetings to the Hall Master and Vice Hall Master."

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Everyone departed together, but the character for 'Immortal' was exceptionally eye-catching. The surrounding cultivators also respectfully cupped their hands. As one of the five major regions of Xuanwei Heaven, the Immortal Palace's vast majesty was deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

...

Mengmu Sea Region, on an island, the distant sky was filled with warships that blotted out the sky, emitting a dense array of rainbow lights under the night, creating a grand spectacle.

At the peak of a mountain, five sect leaders were respectfully worshiping in front of an altar.

The night shrouded the earth, the starry sky was dazzling, and a bright moon on the horizon cast a gentle glow, illuminating the entire mountain.

It was night, and the starry sky was dotted with stars. The faint light couldn't overshadow the high peak behind the five sect leaders, making it appear even more solemn.

However, at that moment, a powerful sword aura suddenly shot up from the ground, like thousands of blades intersecting, slicing through the night sky.

Thirty thousand sword auras swept across the entire mountain range like a storm, as if to tear the entire world apart, with countless starlights shining.

On the mountainside stood elders and grand elders from the five sects, while below, over a million disciples stood solemnly, their cultivation at least at the Elemental Infant phase, their gazes respectful, heads bowed and hands cupped.

The entire scene was extremely solemn and magnificent, everyone quietly watching the mountain top, only the sound of the night wind and the whistling of the thirty thousand sword auras could be heard.

At the mountain top altar, statues of the five sects' ancestors were placed, shining with golden brilliance, dazzling and eye-catching.

The air around was filled with a mysterious and solemn aura, as if a magical force made everyone feel awe and reverence.

"With the ancestors above, our five sects shall unite and strengthen our Dao lineage."

"If this succeeds, our five sects will soar to great heights, living up to the expectations of the ancestors, and ushering in a golden age for the five sects!"

"Pay respects to the ancestors, may the path of the Immortal Dao be smooth and prosperous!"

Suddenly, a voice that shook the heavens and earth spread in all directions, and disciples from all sides used their mana to create a grand sound: "Pay respects to the ancestors, may the path of the Immortal Dao be smooth and prosperous!"

"Set off!"

"Set off!"

...

The grand sound echoed endlessly, as war artifacts set off from the sky, even space teleportation passages suddenly tore through space.

The entire island resounded with earth-shattering cracking sounds, the earth veins trembled incessantly.

...

Azure Dragon Sect.

Tonight was destined to be restless, as they had an important task: to intercept the elders of Dongxuan Dao Academy, and not to meddle in other matters.

There were people above to cover for them, even the inspectors around Dongxuan Immortal Island were willing to clear the way for them for a night.

However, they were well aware of the five sects' movements. Although they didn't know what was discussed that day, the five sects were still insignificant in the Mengmu Sea Region, their background far inferior!

Inside the main hall of the sect.

A disciple came in with a horrified expression, cupping his hands anxiously, "Sect Leader, Elder Wu and Elder Nie's fleet in the sea region has lost contact!"

"Sect Leader!"

At this moment, an elder also rushed in anxiously from outside the hall, "The space in front of our sect's sea region has been sealed by a grand array, even the established space teleportation arrays have been destroyed!"

"Sect Leader!!!" A woman stepped through the air, her face carrying a trace of fear, "The five major sects have mobilized their entire forces, with two sects heading towards our Azure Dragon Sect, war artifacts... ominous!!"

"What?!"

The Azure Dragon Sect Leader's eyes were filled with disbelief, his expression also extremely shocked, "Could the five sects dare to openly declare war on us today? Do they not wish to remain in this sea region?!"

He suddenly stood up, his deep voice echoing in the hall, but compared to the panic of the disciples and elders, he was evidently much calmer. Something was off, very off!

"Report to the Eight Veins..."

However, before he could finish speaking, a sound of explosion from the distant sea region spread in all directions, a terrifying tsunami erupted outside the island, and massive objects burst out from the seabed!

Countless disciples of the Azure Dragon Sect were shocked, those were war artifacts, and they bore the flags of Haixin Sect and Xuanyue Sect! Two of the five major sects!

"What is the meaning of this, you thieves! How dare you attack our Azure Dragon Sect, what do you take the rules of the grand world for, what do you take our allied Flood Dragon clan of the Eight Veins for?!"

"We are merely passing through, if your Azure Dragon Sect dares to move an inch, then let there be war!"

"Impudent!!"

The Azure Dragon Sect Leader's face was ashen, tonight they had mobilized a large number of disciples, but these two sects dared to brazenly steal from the Azure Dragon Sect, where did they get such audacity.

His anger surged wildly, but he hadn't lost his reason, the two sides openly confronted each other, the Azure Dragon Sect remained unflustered, the people backing them would surely ensure their sect's removal from the sea region!

The Azure Dragon Sect Leader immediately signaled with his eyes, calling for reinforcements!

"Sect Leader... Eight Veins Eight Veins..."

"What?!"

The Azure Dragon Sect Leader's eyes widened, looking towards the rear, could something have happened to the sea region's great clan as well?! What was going on?!!

...

In the central sea region of the Mengmu Sea Region, hundreds of Flood Dragons sliced through the night sky, their eyes filled with ferocity and malice, their presence grand, the undisputed overlords of the sea region.

"Tonight, stir up chaos around Dongxuan Dao Academy, but do not launch a strong attack on the Immortal Island!"

"Those academy experts can only be stalled, not severely injured, the time is only one night, the opportunity must not be missed, once that human girl is taken to the Southern Yu Continent, everything can be denied, no one can do anything to us."

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

...

Tens of thousands of Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins responded in deep voices, even the high-altitude clouds were scattered by the vibrations, they only needed to complete one part of the plan, the rest and the aftermath would naturally be handled by professionals.

Suddenly, a shocking change occurred!

Buzz—

Buzz—

Space screens unfolded in all directions, terrifying Xuanxiao Sea Dragons crossed the Nether Sea Abyss through space passages, descending upon the Mengmu Sea Region!

Their bodies were covered in pitch-black dragon scales, with a ghostly blue glow flickering on the scales, as dazzling as stars in the sky.

Moreover, they had dragon wings on their sides, it was said that a light flap of these wings could stir up a monstrous wave, causing the sea surface to churn endlessly.

In the Nether Sea Abyss, they were the unrivaled dominant sea clan, no sea clan could match them, their status equivalent to the Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins in the Mengmu Sea Region!

And the leading Xuanxiao Sea Dragon was a thousand feet long, an undisputed late-stage Unity phase sea dragon!

In its dragon mouth were two rows of blade-like sharp teeth, it slowly opened its mouth, seemingly with a cold smile, a chilling aura of the Nether spread out: "Flood Dragon clan of the Eight Veins, are you blocking our path?!"

Roar~~~~~

A mighty dragon roar resounded in all directions, charging towards the Flood Dragons of the Eight Veins, the latter's pupils nearly shrinking to a needlepoint, Xuanxiao Sea Dragon! A true sea-crossing dragon.
