Chapter 234: The Might of the Gold-Devouring Insects, the Tyranny of the Gu Insects

"Who is it?!"

Sha Wu felt a violent shock in its heart; it simply could not believe that an enemy could approach it without a sound, especially since, according to its spiritual sense, it should have been aware of everything within a ten-mile radius.

Yet now, the enemy's voice had reached it, and it knew nothing about the enemy.

The opponent's methods were simply mysterious and unfathomable.

"Dream Domain!"

The person speaking was naturally Zhou Sui. After advancing to the Golden Core Early Stage, he had become completely confident, his strength having increased by an unknown number of times, and he had no intention of waiting for these Sea Clan Cultivators to attack the Samsung Island Group.

Instead, he used the Teleportation Gu to bring the three Golden Core female cultivators—Leng Yuexi, Lin Yazhu, and Shen Biqian—directly into the heart of the enemy, right in front of these Third-tier Sea Clan Cultivators.

He wanted to use thunderous momentum to completely annihilate this group of Sea Clan Cultivators and strike fear into the Sea Clan.

Sometimes, in a war between two races, keeping a low profile cannot solve problems.

Only thunderous methods can thoroughly intimidate the enemy and win lasting peace.

At this moment, Zhou Sui immediately utilized the power of the Dream Soul Gu.

One must know that his cultivation had now reached the Golden Core Early Stage, the Dream Soul Gu had also advanced to the Third-tier Middle Grade, and most importantly, his Soul power was now comparable to that of a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.

The combination of these three factors elevated the power of the Dream Soul Gu to the extreme.

Compared to before, it was simply incomparable.

Boom~~

Suddenly, an invisible force of the Dream Domain spread out, instantly covering a sea area of over a hundred miles, shrouding these Sea Clan Cultivators and numerous sea beasts within the Dream Domain.

At this moment, these Sea Clan Cultivators fell into dreams and illusions, unable to distinguish reality from fantasy.

"Not bad, not bad."

Seeing this scene, Zhou Sui felt very satisfied. The power of the Dream Domain was simply a divine skill for bullying the weak; as long as a creature had not practiced eye techniques and lacked sufficiently powerful Soul strength, they would immediately fall victim and be unable to extricate themselves.

Moreover, there was no use in having strength in numbers; no matter how many came, they would all die.

"Illusion?"

"You actually dare to use illusions on me, Sha Wu? You are courting death!"

At this very moment, Sha Wu instantly woke up. A trace of terrifying brilliance appeared in its eyes, as if it had pierced through the void of the Dream Domain and seen through this Domain of dreams.

At the same time, it also saw the four people staying at the center of the Dream Domain: Zhou Sui, Leng Yuexi, Lin Yazhu, and Shen Biqian.

Seeing these four Human Golden Core Cultivators, it knew exactly what had happened.

The fact that its fellow Sea Clan Cultivators had fallen into illusions was all the work of these Human Golden Core Cultivators.

Fortunately, it had practiced the Demon Eye Technique secretly passed down by the Black Shark Clan, which could pierce through many illusions.

Otherwise, it would certainly have fallen into the enemy's trap.

The pity was that even though it could see through the power of the Dream Domain, the other Sea Clan Cultivators could not; they remained deluded by the Dream Domain, having no idea where they were.

"Four Human Golden Core Cultivators, three of whom are female."

"So that's it, you are those Golden Core Cultivators from the Samsung Island Group."

"Good, very good. I hadn't even gone to your doorstep to wipe you out yet."

"You guys actually dared to deliver yourselves to my doorstep."

Sha Wu was furious. It had originally thought these Human Cultivators would rely on the power of the Third-tier Array to hold their ground on the islands and would never dare to come out.

Who could have imagined that the opponent had no intention of holding the array, but instead charged out directly.

It is said that to capture the bandits, one must first capture the king.

Clearly, the goal of these four Human Golden Core Cultivators was simple: to eliminate this group of Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators.

Once successful, this Beast Tide would naturally collapse without a fight.

"Die, Black Fiend Storm."

Sha Wu roared. It knew that to break this illusion, it had to eliminate these few Human Golden Core True Persons; otherwise, the other Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators would never be able to break free from the illusion.

It was seen channeling the violent Demon power within its body, unleashing the innate divine ability of the Black Shark Clan.

The so-called innate divine ability is a power unique to the Demon Race.

Their bloodlines contain a powerful divine ability; they do not need to learn it, as they acquire it naturally.

It is as if it were an instinct of the body.

Therefore, innate divine abilities can not only be cast instantly, but their power is also immense, incomparable to ordinary techniques.

This is also one of the reasons why the combat power of the Demon Race is far superior to that of Human Cultivators of the same tier.

Boom~~

With its body as the center, boundless Heaven and Earth fiendish energy erupted, forming a terrifying black storm, as if countless wronged souls were howling within it.

Each strand of fiendish energy was like a Flying Sword, containing terrifying sharpness, invincible and indestructible.

If struck by this Black Fiend Storm, not only would the body be torn into countless fragments, but the fiendish energy would also invade the body, blocking the circulation of Dharma Power.

This was the innate divine ability the Black Shark Clan was proud of; even if Human Cultivators held Dharma Treasures, it was difficult to contend with them.

Whoosh!

Zhou Sui naturally had no intention of clashing head-on with this Golden Core Late Stage Black Shark Clan cultivator. He activated the Teleportation Gu, his figure flashed, and he instantly appeared behind the opponent, easily dodging the attack.

Thud!

This Black Fiend Storm instantly struck a large number of sea beasts and Sea Clan Cultivators. How could they withstand such a terrifying divine ability? Their entire bodies were immediately torn apart by the strands of black fiendish energy.

In just an instant, these sea beasts and Sea Clan Cultivators were sliced into countless fragments.

This single strike killed at least a hundred Second-tier sea beasts and over a thousand First-tier sea beasts.

Fragments of sea beasts floated upon the sea, dripping with blood.

"Shameless Human Cultivator."

"If you have the guts, don't hide."

Seeing this scene, Sha Wu was absolutely furious; in its eyes, this Human Cultivator was definitely doing it on purpose, with the goal of using its own power to wipe out this group of sea beasts.

This was simply playing with it; it was truly unreasonable.

Bang!

In an instant, Zhou Sui held the Flying Sword, circulated the Golden Core Dharma Power within his body, and thrust the sword forward, as swift as a thunderbolt.

True Dragon Sword Art, first form: Dragon Claw.

A terrifying sword Qi transformed into a Dragon Claw, resembling a true dragon reaching out its claw, and with the speed of a thunderbolt, it slammed fiercely into Sha Wu's body, erupting with terrifying sword Qi.

This was not the sword Qi of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but the sword Qi of a Golden Core Cultivator.

Compared to before, it was more than ten times stronger.

"Ah!"

Caught off guard, Sha Wu took this blow squarely; its entire body was immediately torn by the strands of sword Qi, appearing with dense wounds, dripping with blood, and its body was even knocked back hundreds of meters.

But even so, relying on the powerful scales on its body, it still withstood this fatal blow.

"The body's defense is actually this formidable."

Zhou Sui raised an eyebrow.

The sword strike just now was merely a small test of his skill, and he had not used his full strength.

But even so, this strike was enough to kill a Golden Core True Person.

Yet, facing this Golden Core Cultivator of the Black Shark Clan, it felt a bit lacking in power.

The scales on the opponent's body, as well as its formidable physique, had a level of defense not at all inferior to an ordinary Inferior Grade Dharma Treasure.

Without a doubt, this was an important reason why the Sea Clan could run rampant in the Canglan Sea: a powerful physique comparable to a Dharma Treasure.

This point alone surpassed many Human Cultivators.

"Haha, stupid Human Cultivator."

"Your attacks are of no use to me."

"The body defense of my Black Shark Clan is comparable to an Inferior Grade Dharma Treasure."

"Even if I take the techniques and attacks of you Human Cultivators head-on, I remain unscathed."

"I'd like to see how you fight me."

Sha Wu laughed loudly, coughing up blood while clamoring.

Although this sword strike did not kill Sha Wu, the terrifying sword Qi had permeated its skin and entered its body.

This caused its internal body to suffer heavy damage, as if it had been sliced by a thousand knives.

Yet even so, it still refused to show weakness, not daring to reveal its frailty in the slightest.

Because in the world of the Sea Clan, if one revealed their weakness, it would certainly incite countless sea beasts to attack in a swarm.

No matter what, it had to hold on.

At this very moment, it had already begun to harbor thoughts of retreat.

The Human Golden Core Cultivator before its eyes was simply terrifying to an absurd degree.

It was simply not something it could deal with.

If it didn't run away now, it would probably really be left here for good.

As for the other Sea Clan Cultivators and sea beasts, it had no way to care for them and could only let these idiots fend for themselves.

"Since that's the case, let's try this."

Zhou Sui's intent shifted, and he immediately manipulated the Gold-Eating Insect that had already advanced to the Third-tier realm; now there were as many as three thousand Gold-Eating Insects, and they possessed the ability to break through armor.

No matter how powerful the enemy's defense was, it was difficult to block the might of the Gold-Eating Insects.

Boom~~

In an instant, the Gold-Eating Insects gathered together; they could fuse with one another, and three thousand Gold-Eating Insects merged into one, then transformed into a golden light, blasting toward Sha Wu.

What?!

Sha Wu immediately sensed a fatal crisis; its entire body was trembling. If it were hit by this strike, no matter how high its defense was, it would be useless; it would undoubtedly die.

"Black Fiend Wall."

Without a second word, it immediately unleashed its second Bloodline Supernatural Power, manipulating the endless Black Fiend Gale, which instantly transformed into massive black barriers.

These black barriers were condensed from the Black Fiend Gale and were incomparably thick.

And in an instant, three black walls were condensed.

If an enemy's attack approached this Black Fiend Wall, it would instantly be swallowed by the endless Black Fiend Gale and vanish into nothingness.

This was also its supreme defensive supernatural power.

But the next second, this golden light broke through the air and struck the Black Fiend Wall.

Thud!

These three Black Fiend Walls could not even withstand a single second; they were instantly struck by the golden light and shattered with a roar.

"Impossible."

Sha Wu shrieked, unable to believe that its supreme defensive supernatural power could not even hold for a second, being instantly shattered with no power to resist.

At this moment, it saw this golden light pierce through its body, causing countless bloody holes to appear on its body, riddled with wounds, as endless blood flowed down.

A violent pain spread throughout Sha Wu's entire body, even more painful than suffering torture.

It stared fixedly at Zhou Sui, but now it had no strength left at all.

Finally, its massive body fell into the sea, having already lost the breath of life.

"Not bad."

Seeing this scene, Zhou Sui felt very satisfied; the Gold-Eating Insects that had advanced to the Third-tier realm had become fierce creatures, possessing extraordinary combat power.

If they were to leave Zhou Sui, they would likely turn into an insect plague, sweeping through everything and causing the death and injury of countless living beings.

Of course, such a powerful swarm of Gold-Eating Insects does not come without a price.

That is, the food they require is simply too much; an ordinary person could never afford to raise them.

The resources consumed every day are an astronomical figure.

Ordinary Cultivators would be eaten into bankruptcy by them.

"Fortunately, the Canglan Sea is vast and rich in resources."

"Raising three thousand Gold-Eating Insects is still no problem at all."

"Especially in the depths of the Canglan Sea, where vast metal mineral veins are hidden."

"These are the cafeterias for the Gold-Eating Insects."

"Perhaps later I will have to use the power of the Object Seeking Gu to find mineral veins suitable as food for the Gold-Eating Insects."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes, pondering the issue of the Gold-Eating Insects' food source.

It was also fortunate that he had refined the Object Seeking Gu, which could help him find all kinds of Treasures and all kinds of mineral veins.

Otherwise, wanting to find mineral veins suitable for the Gold-Eating Insects would not be such a simple matter.

Just as he was thinking, Lin Yazhu, Leng Yuexi, and Shen Biqian also made their moves.

Taking advantage of the remaining twelve Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators being trapped in the Dream Domain and unable to move their bodies, they naturally beat the drowning dog without mercy.

"E-Wood Divine Thunder."

Holding the Superior Magic Treasure Golden Thunder Bamboo, Lin Yazhu manipulated streaks of cyan divine thunder, which seemed to transform into a sky-filling Thunder Sea, falling from the sky and fiercely bombarding these Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators.

Having advanced to Golden Core Perfection, Lin Yazhu was even more formidable at this moment, especially after Dual Cultivation with Zhou Sui, as the Dharma Power within her body was incomparably pure.

Consequently, the power of the E-Wood Divine Thunder she manipulated was even stronger, filled with extreme destructive force.

"Taiyin Spirit Fire."

At this moment, Shen Biqian also seemed to be surrounded by massive silver flames; she looked like a fire god, and the area for several miles around had turned into a boundless sea of fire.

Now, she was even more adept at manipulating the Taiyin Spirit Fire, as if it were a part of her own body.

At this moment, the Taiyin Spirit Fire could not harm her body; instead, it helped temper her body, causing her body to continuously evolve and become increasingly adapted to the power of the Taiyin Spirit Fire.

Wisps of Taiyin Spirit Fire also fell upon those Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators.

"Golden Light Divine Flood Dragon."

Leng Yuexi was also manipulating the Superior Magic Treasure Golden Flood Dragon Scissors; her cultivation had now advanced to the Golden Core Middle Stage, and she was continuously improving toward the Golden Core Late Stage.

Although her aura and power could not compare to the two older sisters before her, under the augmentation of the Superior Magic Treasure Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, the power she unleashed was actually no less than that of any Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator.

Streaks of terrifying golden light lashed out, enough to pierce through many Golden Core Cultivators.

Boom—!

Three female Golden Core Cultivators attacked simultaneously, and the power unleashed was earth-shattering, covering a sea area of over a hundred miles.

In just a fleeting moment, the remaining twelve Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators were blasted apart on the spot, torn to pieces.

And it was not just as simple as these Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators dying.

Thousands of Second-tier Monster Beasts, as well as tens of thousands of First-tier Monster Beasts, were all unable to withstand this heavenly might.

One by one, they fell into pools of blood, their bodies torn to shreds on the spot.

"Roar!"

After the thirteen Sea Clan Golden Core Cultivators died, those controlled Sea Beasts that had survived were scared witless; none dared to remain in place, and they quickly swam toward the Deep Sea.

This Beast Tide crisis that had affected the Samsung Island Group was also silently resolved.
