Chapter 2582

Xu Jie's conduct, though rather absurd and unexpected, nevertheless yielded a good result.

They also won everyone's praise for a while, and even Huang Lao rarely smiled and uttered a sentence.

「You brat, this time you actually did something decent. 」

「Hehe, as long as the seniors don't blame us, it's fine. 」

Upon this, Xu Jie modestly laughed.

Afterwards, everyone continued forward, while Xu Jie held a large net at the rear, happily catching fish.

But suddenly, Zhao Zhengping came up beside Xu Jie and whispered.

「Junior brother, do you have any more of those fish nets? Give me one. 」

「Huh??? Senior Brother, you didn't think highly of my fish net, saying it's not proper work. 」

Hearing this, Xu Jie turned his head dubiously, while Zhao Zhengping's old face flushed, and he replied somewhat shyly.

「My… my sword technique for catching fish is too slow, so…」

「Oh, since Senior Brother has spoken, there naturally is one. 」

Zhao Zhengping is honest; he started practicing the sword way from the moment he entered Xiūliàn, and even after coming to the Immortal Realm, knowing his sword talent pales compared to Immortal Realm cultivators, it's utterly insignificant.

Nevertheless, from beginning to end, Zhao Zhengping never gave up on the sword way.

In his view, this life is nothing but the sword way.

But just now, seeing everyone's praise for Xu Jie, though he originally couldn't help, he now wants to contribute what little he can.

So he imitated Xu Jie, catching some of the wandering fish around.

But using his sword technique, his catching speed is too slow; even some kinds of wandering fish can outright dodge his attacks, making the success rate too low.

Watching Xu Jie scoop fish net after net made his eyes turn red; he couldn't help but come over.

After all, we are fellow martial brothers; he also wants to make some contribution.

Along the way, these ordinary wandering fish were all handed over to Zhao Zhengping and Xu Jie.

Everyone went straight to where the Sea God is, after all, this is the main dish.

From afar, one could see a water prison beneath the sea floor, inside which more than ten Heavenly Spirit Tribe children were imprisoned.

It seems that the Sea God we saw earlier has indeed returned here.

After looking around, we indeed saw three Sea Gods.

However, regarding this, someone frowned, full of disappointment, and said.

「How come only three? Wasn't it said to be a clan? 」

「Maybe these Sea Gods have more than one nest. 」

「That makes sense. 」

With just three, how can it be called a clan?

Although somewhat disappointed, having something is better than nothing, and since we've come this far, we surely can't return empty-handed.

After confirming there were no other Sea Gods nearby, Huang Lao didn't waste words and immediately led the charge.

Dealing with these three Sea Gods should pose no problem for everyone, especially with Huang Lao overseeing.

Faced with the sudden appearance of human cultivators, these three Sea Gods were obviously taken aback at first.

Their eyes were full of disbelief, as if saying, how could there be such acquired Human Race here?

But what the crowd heard were a series of low growls, completely unintelligible.

No mutual understanding.

A Heavenly Family Elder frowned and said.

「What are those gurgling roars? I can't understand. 」

「You're sick; what's the point of understanding what the ingredients say? Just go ahead. 」

「Oh, that's true. 」

Anyway, they're just food in the pot; why bother with what they say? Take them down first, talk later—do you really want to chat with them?

The next second, without waiting for the three Sea Gods to attack, everyone swarmed forward.

Sensing the crowd's movement, the three Sea Gods seemed to awaken, erupting in roars and then charging forward as well.

Both sides immediately erupted into a great battle.

In this situation, naturally there's no fancy tricks; even the Heavenly Hook Great Technique isn't needed—just a straightforward takedown.

When facing the ingredients, everyone's fighting spirit is certainly soaring, with no fear at all.

That said, although these three Sea Gods are few in number, their strength is not weak.

Each one actually surpasses the Heavenly Family and Wushen Palace Elders in strength.

In a one-on-one situation, only Huang Lao can steadily suppress them.

「These ingredients have absurd strength. 」

「Moreover, we can't sense their cultivation level. 」

Everyone had sensed before, but from these three Sea Gods' bodies, we couldn't sense any aura at all, let alone an accurate cultivation level.

Yet the combat power they erupt with is not weak.

It's truly somewhat strange, but now everyone has no time to think about these things.

First, take down these three ingredients; the rest doesn't matter.

We originally thought that with over twenty of them joining forces, taking down these three Sea Gods shouldn't be difficult.

But once they actually engaged, everyone realized this battle wasn't that easy.

As for these three Sea Gods, their combat power is absurdly strong—needless to say—but mainly it feels impossible to kill them.

A Heavenly Family Elder seized the opportunity, clearly having already thrust his spear through the body of one Sea God.

That spear-light directly pierced through, entering from one side and exiting from the other; for anyone else, that would be a fatal wound.

At the very least you need to use the Origin Source Power within your body to recover.

But if it were on this Sea God, it's absurd; there's no strange movement, and yet that wound mysteriously healed.

Moreover, his combat strength is not diminished in the slightest, and there's no sign he was injured at all.

"Undying body?"

This Heavenly Family Elder was dumbfounded; he's lived so many years, and he doesn't know how many people he's stabbed with this spear.

Anyone he's stabbed, even if they don't die, will surely suffer greatly.

Where could you find something like this Sea God, being pierced straight through and yet completely unharmed?

My spear strike certainly didn't hold back; I really drove it home solidly.

His eyes were full of astonishment; the other two Sea Gods were the same, and the people's attacks landing on them had absolutely no effect.

The battle should have ended quickly, but because of this it turned into a prolonged fight.

What can you do if you can't kill them? And these three Sea Gods seem to rely on such undying power, having no intention to flee and showing no sense of fear.

It almost seems as if they're confident they can capture everyone and turn defeat into victory.

Ye Zhangqing did not participate in the battle; at this moment his face was also solemn.

It's fine if others can't, but even Huang Lao is in the same situation.

Clearly he could completely suppress that Sea God; anyone with eyes could see it, and Huang Lao had held absolute advantage from the start, firmly grasping the initiative.

But after exchanging blows, he still couldn't kill this Sea God, and couldn't even say he'd wounded it.

Because this Sea God, after enduring many attacks from Huang Lao, remained vigorous and showed no sign of injury, and they fought back and forth as equals.
