Chapter 519: Demon Sea!

~15 min read 2,966 words

On the calm sea surface, Luo Chen, who had changed into a brand-new black tight-fitting outfit, had less of the demeanor of an enlightened master pretending to be old, and more of the heroic spirit of a dashing hero.

Stepping in the middle of the flying boat, Luo Chen perceived the sailing speed, which was one-third slower than flying in the air.

But he did not choose to fly.

The reason, naturally, was very simple.

Luo Chen looked back, and in the direction he came from, a group of white seabirds with huge bodies were circling in the sky.

This was a group of white birds whose origins he couldn't name, mostly Tier 1, with no lack of Tier 2, and from their appearance, they were somewhat similar to the common albatross.

Especially, in the center of the seabird group, there was vaguely an aura of a Tier 3 demon beast permeating and spreading, shrouding the entire seabird group.

"I don't know if this group of seabirds was specially raised by the Mount Cangwu demon cultivators to guard the house and protect that teleportation array."

"If it is, I will use the Hidden Formation with all my strength and leave quietly; they shouldn't discover me."

"If it isn't..."

Luo Chen's heart sank slightly.

Just arriving at this place, he encountered a group of demon beasts led by a Tier 3 Demon King; this was enough to show the danger of this place.

He now urgently needed to meet living people to inquire clearly about the situation here.

He tapped his foot lightly, and with the addition of magic power, the flying boat sailed even faster on the sea surface.

Yet, under the addition of the Hidden Formation, it didn't show a trace.

Even if the seabirds had sharp eyes, looking from afar, they only thought the waves were rising and falling, and there was just an extra white line on the sea.

The sun rose and the moon floated, representing that a day and a night had passed.

He didn't know how far he had sailed, or if the direction was correct.

Luo Chen just relied on a feeling in his heart, moving away from the directions that made him feel dangerous, and moved forward in a straight line in one direction.

Morning mist shrouded, and a faint coolness soaked his body.

Luo Chen took out a gourd from his storage ring and poured a mouthful into his mouth.

The sweet liquid had both the mellowness of fine wine and the fragrance of fruit.

Hanging the gourd at his waist, Luo Chen sighed.

"What a pity!"

This monkey wine was specially collected for him from the wild mountains by a demon bird from Mount Cangwu who had learned pill refining from him.

It was a Tier 3 spiritual wine!

It was most suitable for restoring magic power.

For Nascent Soul cultivators, it didn't count for much, but for Golden Core cultivators, it was an undeniable good thing.

It could also be considered the demon bird's apprenticeship gift.

He had wanted to take out a bottle to give to Tian Yezi to taste, as a way to thank him for refining his natal magic treasure.

But he didn't expect that incident to happen.

"He has no fate to enjoy it, so it can only be all my gain."

Luo Chen shook his head.

He scattered his divine sense, searching for nearby living beings according to his previous habit.

With his divine sense strength now that he had advanced to Golden Core Level 3, after spreading it out with all his might, it had long exceeded the 500-mile distance of the early Golden Core stage.

As soon as it spread, the straight-line distance was a full 700-plus miles.

Cooperating with a pair of spirit eyes, Luo Chen took in the situation ahead.

In an instant, Luo Chen's eyebrows twitched.

"Finally saw living people!"

"However, their situation doesn't look too good."

"In that case, good!"

With a thought, the flying boat under his feet soared out like an arrow from a bow, the sea breeze stirred, and the smile on Luo Chen's face was brilliant.

On the vast sea, a huge fishing boat twenty zhang long lay across the calm sea surface.

Except for those on night watch, most were still in sweet sleep.

But everyone's deep sleep was instantly broken by a sharp warning.

"Enemy attack!"

In an instant, everyone woke up.

Because they often encountered sudden situations while working at sea, most people slept in their clothes.

Once awake, except for a group of strong mortals who were somewhat panicked, the rest of the cultivators were still calm.

Under their command, everyone began to act in an orderly manner.

The leader rushed out of the cabin, a black-faced man carrying a white long banner, and blurted out, "What enemy?"

Immediately, a night-watch cultivator said in a panic, "It's the Blue-Ringed Sea Snake!"

The black-faced man raised an eyebrow, "Are there any Blue-Ringed Giant-Toothed Sea Snakes inside?"

Blue-Ringed Giant-Toothed Sea Snakes are also Blue-Ringed Sea Snakes.

But the grade of the two was completely different.

The Blue-Ringed Sea Snake that had grown giant teeth was already at the Tier 2 demon beast level; a single one was fine, but if there were many, he couldn't protect this boat of people!

The night-watch cultivator shook his head repeatedly, "Haven't seen any Giant-Toothed Sea Snakes yet."

The black-faced man glared at him, then walked to the deck and spread his spiritual sense.

Just once, his face turned pale instantly.

Without the slightest hesitation, he roared loudly.

"First Mate, Second Mate, activate the formation!"

"Third Mate, distribute the spirit-attached magic tools to the mortal crew!"

"Little Seventeen, gather everyone, everyone, prepare for battle!"

"Cheng Ji, hoist the sails, speed up and return!"

Sentence after sentence, orderly and calm, roared out from the black-faced man's mouth.

The originally panicked crew instantly began to act.

Black light curtains suddenly expanded from the edge of the deck, layers of black mist shrouded it, and from time to time, ferocious monsters poked their heads out from the black mist.

And those mortal crew members, in panic, also brought a bit of excitement as they received knives, swords, and sea forks from the cultivators, and as they injected their internal energy, those strange knives, swords, and sea forks emitted hazy light.

Not only that, on the deck, three giant sails were hoisted with a clatter, intending to start.

Seeing his orders being faithfully executed by his subordinates, the black-faced man breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he looked down at the blue and white shadows under the sea surface, his lips became dry and his throat itched.

"With this quantity of Blue-Ringed Sea Snakes, I fear the family's hunting boat cannot be saved."

"Forget it, let me do my best, then make other plans!"

The sky was slightly bright.

The sea mist was driven away.

On the vast ocean, the black giant ship had stopped sailing and was spinning wildly on the sea.

The shrouded black mist gave it a certain defensive power.

But under the sea surface, countless giant snakes stirred up monstrous waves, and for a time, a huge vortex formed in the ocean.

Under the pull of this vortex, even the giant ship protected by black mist was constantly sinking.

Luo Chen watched this scene from afar, strange colors flashing in his eyes.

He was surprised that the giant ship could still stand tall under the attack of countless underwater demon beasts, and its defensive power was extremely outstanding.

He was also amazed that these low-level demon beasts were actually so proficient in cooperation.

When a hard attack failed, they stirred up a vortex, wanting to use the power of nature to drag the giant ship into the seabed.

It was conceivable that once the giant ship was dragged into the sea, under the siege of thousands of low-level demon beasts, this black mist defensive formation would inevitably collapse within a few breaths.

"What kind of demon beast is this?"

"It is somewhat similar to the Black-Ringed Snow Python of the Great Snow Mountain."

"However, the level of intelligence is clearly higher than ordinary Black-Ringed Snow Pythons!"

Luo Chen's heart moved, and his gaze fell on a place not far from him, which was the rear of the battlefield relative to the battlefield.

Then, a round gray small cauldron landed on his palm.

Holding the cauldron in one hand and forming seals with the other.

"Go!"

The next moment, streaks of crimson chains flew out from the Hunyuan Cauldron and drilled into the deep sea surface.

"Hiss hiss..."

Hissing sounds containing unclear meanings were emitted, vaguely showing anger and fear.

But immediately, a giant snake with two huge fangs, about nine zhang long, looking like a small flood dragon, was tightly bound by the crimson chains and pulled out of the water.

Clatter!

In the sunlight, the blue light rings on the giant snake's body were so deep, and its teeth were so ferocious!

At a glance, Luo Chen exclaimed in surprise.

"Didn't see it clearly just now; didn't expect it to be a Tier 2 late-stage great demon!"

Just at this moment, the calm sea surface suddenly shook violently.

From the southeast, northwest, and four directions, four thick white lines surged toward Luo Chen's small boat.

Not only that, the sea snake group that had stirred up a monstrous vortex was also rushing toward this side.

With such a formation, the answer was self-evident.

Luo Chen had caught the leader by catching the thief first!

Luo Chen's gaze first glanced at the four white lines, his fingers flicking repeatedly.

Four more crimson chains flew out, easily grabbing four blue-ringed sea snakes about four or five zhang long from under the sea surface.

Each one had ferocious giant teeth.

Each one was twisting its demon body angrily, rolling wildly, trying to break free from the control of the crimson chains.

Luo Chen didn't care about the struggle of these five giant sea snakes, but looked at the countless demon beasts rushing over in the vast sea with greed.

"Today, maybe I can have a full meal!"

He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, his clothes fluttering without wind, and his whole body slowly rose into the air, his hands pressing into the void.

The next moment, surging green flames appeared all over his body.

Under the addition of magic power, the green flames suddenly expanded, and the color also became a bright red.

At this moment, the green-red above and the blue-white below became the only scenery between heaven and earth!

On the hunting boat.

The black-faced man's eyes were about to split!

In just half an hour, this hunting boat, which contained two-tenths of their family's elite power, had suffered heavy losses.

Not to mention that all the mortals had died in battle.

Even the Qi Refining clan members he thought highly of had suffered heavy casualties.

Even Cheng Ji, the Foundation Establishment elder who controlled the hunting boat, had suffered a backlash from the formation because he forcibly drove the giant ship, and was now lying in the cockpit unconscious.

If this continued, death was certain!

The black-faced man took a deep breath and didn't intend to live and die with the hunting boat.

The white banner in his hand spat out mist, rolled up the unconscious Cheng Ji, and was about to fly into the sky to escape alone.

But just at this moment.

"Retreated!"

"The sea snakes have retreated!"

"Woo woo woo, we survived!"

Sounds of wild joy and sorrow instantly resounded on the deck.

The black-faced man was somewhat stunned; having consumed most of his spiritual power, he looked around in confusion.

Sure enough!

The ten thousand sea snakes that had originally surrounded the hunting boat tightly suddenly gave up continuing to attack the hunting boat and turned toward the east.

Following that direction, he looked afar.

Only to see the morning sun rising, a proud sun slowly rising.

"Never heard that Blue-Ringed Sea Snakes cannot be active in the sun?"

While muttering in confusion, the black-faced man suddenly shook his spirit.

That was not a sun!

That was a person!

Under the clear daylight, a human figure overlooked the vast ocean from mid-air, and endless green-red flames erupted from his body, surging toward the sea surface in a mighty manner.

Thousands of sea snakes spat out water arrows containing poison, shooting toward that person.

However, these poison arrows were burned to nothing before they could even get close to that person.

Not only that, the endless flames pressed down like a huge heavenly dome, rumbling, actually covering a hundred-mile radius in an instant.

Under the burning of these flames, the giant snakes in the sea began to roll wildly.

Hissing and screaming, sound after sound entered the ears, extremely terrifying.

The black-faced man and the dozen or so remaining cultivators on the hunting boat all looked at this scene in a daze.

With the strength of one person, suppressing ten thousand sea snakes.

What a soul-stirring scene this was.

Those sea snakes squeezed together were now like eels thrown alive into boiling water, struggling in extreme high temperature and unable to break free.

Even separated by dozens of miles.

They could all feel that scorching wave of fire.

Between their nostrils, they could even clearly smell the burnt fragrance of roasted meat.

"Gulp!"

Don't know who it was, swallowed their saliva, making a loud sound in their throat.

Along with everyone, they all subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

Everyone's gaze didn't move, their necks were stiff, and their hearts were beating wildly.

"Who is that?"

"Could it be a demonic giant who walked out of the Yuanmo Sect?"

"Impossible! The Yuanmo Sect has long been destroyed; even if there were such a peerless powerhouse, they would have long been famous in the archipelago, how could we not know?"

Voices sounded one after another from everyone's mouths.

But no one could say the origin of that person at all.

They didn't dare to move, didn't dare to escape!

Very clearly, that person deliberately controlled the power of the green-red flames, otherwise, at their distance, they would also be within the attack range.

Everyone who survived the disaster looked at this scene in horror, waiting for the battle to end.

For a long, long time.

It seemed like a spring, summer, autumn, and winter had passed, but in reality, only a stick of incense time had passed.

The morning sun finally leaped out from the sea level.

And that young man in black supported himself with both hands, slowly descending from the sky, and arrived on the hunting boat.

After falling onto the deck, he didn't say a word, closed his eyes, as if feeling something.

The black-faced man and others bowed and saluted together, not daring to disturb the other party.

But each other's gaze wandered, sometimes on Luo Chen's dust-free cloud boots, sometimes patrolling the charred sea surface.

Except for a few Blue-Ringed Sea Snakes that escaped under instinct, the remaining ten thousand sea snakes all fell in this one-sided massacre.

Charred bodies floated on the sea surface.

Waves hit, beating them into piles of ash, and they were submerged under the endless sea area.

It could be seen that even the charred bodies left behind had long since reached their limit of fragility.

Finally, everyone's gaze gathered on the young man in black again.

Streaks of powerful aura constantly escaped from his body, constantly swallowing and spitting.

The vibrant vitality made people unable to help but want to get close.

Yet because of the unmasked powerful spiritual pressure, it forced everyone to lower their heads and waists.

Spiritual pressure!

Golden Core Superior!

The realm of the visitor was not masked at all, finally revealed before everyone.

Suddenly.

The young man opened his eyes, a brilliant essence light sweeping across everyone.

Those with inferior cultivation, even if not deliberately targeted, sat paralyzed on the ground with a plop.

The young man took a deep breath and put away the Golden Core spiritual pressure.

The black-faced man couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and then heard a question in his ear.

"What is this place?"

The black-faced man pursed his dry lips, "Reporting to Superior, this place is the Xintian Sea Area, eight thousand miles away from the Feiyan Archipelago, and is an unregulated Demon Sea area."

Xintian Sea Area?

Feiyan Archipelago?

Luo Chen's eyebrows frowned slightly, but after hearing the three words "Demon Sea," his eyes instantly lit up.

"Northern Sea?!"

Like a question, and like an affirmation.

The black-faced man was startled for a moment, then nodded subconsciously, "Adult is wise, it is indeed the Northern Sea."
