Chapter 169: Seeing the Whale

Cheng Xinzhan inquired that this Big Belly Tuo King sleeps for a cycle of sixty years, and it is about to wake up recently. Now this sea area is quite lively, and there are demons everywhere collecting blood food, so that they can get rewards when they offer it to the Big Belly Tuo King.

He realized that this might be an opportunity.

The Big Belly Tuo King has several third-realm leaders under his command, one of whom escaped from the land a hundred years ago. It is said that he escaped from the Hundred Barbarian Mountain of the Southern Demonic Sect, surnamed Huang. People here privately call him Huang Laosan, and publicly call him Huang Laoxian.

Huang Laosan is now rumored to be a Golden Core of three washes, managing a small piece of sea area north of the "Big Belly Sea," with ten or so large islands and fifty or so small islands. There are two or three hundred demon soldiers stationed on the islands, and thousands of shrimp soldiers and crab generals under his command in the water.

The largest island here is called Huang Liu Island, which is Huang Laosan's residence, so this piece of land is called Huang Liu Water Area.

Cheng Xinzhan is now wandering on the periphery of this water area, waiting for an opportunity.

Hmm?

His eyes condensed. Why did that group of seagulls chased away by Third Sister return again?

He immediately activated his Dan pupils to look. From dozens of li away, he saw a pile of white clouds stacked and piled up, stretching for a hundred li. At this moment, the clouds were surging, as if some giant object was stirring in the clouds.

Cheng Xinzhan immediately drove the clouds over to investigate.

At the same time, he was about to activate his Green Eyes to check the details in the clouds, but he saw a giant object jump out of the cloud pile, crashing into the wisps of cloud Qi, like splashing waves.

The giant object's belly presented a soft pearl white, almost merging with the white clouds behind it, making it difficult to detect. After the giant object completely broke away from the cloud pile and floated alone in the sky, looking from below, it looked like a lonely white cloud.

The giant object's waistline position was a blend of white and deep blue, with patterns like sea waves, and also like the boundary between white clouds and blue sky. The back above the waistline was all deep blue, the color of the deep sea.

This object was huge and peerless, visually twenty or thirty zhang long, but such a huge body did not look bloated, and the body shape was extremely smooth.

The giant object had long fins, a huge tail, and the sound of its singing was as ethereal as a flute.

This is a whale!

A whale flying in the sky!

There are no whales near the sea, so Cheng Xinzhan had not seen whales in the "Ten Thousand Corpse Sea," but when he arrived at the "Big Belly Sea," Cheng Xinzhan still hadn't seen whales.

This is because the Big Belly Tuo King likes blood food, and a giant whale can make him half full, and whale meat is fresh and tender, which he likes very much. So the whales in the "Big Belly Sea" had long been eaten up by the Big Belly Tuo King, and whales in other sea areas knew that this was a dead place, so they didn't dare to come over.

So this was his first time seeing a whale, but he didn't expect that this first glance was not a sea whale, but a cloud whale.

This kind of behemoth attracted Cheng Xinzhan all at once. It was truly a creation of heaven, an elf of the cloud sea, beautiful and breathtaking.

But at this moment, this cloud whale, which didn't know why it had strayed into the "Big Belly Sea" area, was fleeing in panic from the cloud sea it relied on for survival. There were many gaps on its beautiful skin patterns, and blood was gushing out like a spring, and then floating and scattering in the air like a flying waterfall.

After the cloud whale left the white clouds, its speed slowed down a lot. No matter how ethereal its cry was, it was now full of panic.

Soon, the culprit who forced the cloud whale to leave the clouds also flew out from the clouds.

They were two men in blue.

These two people were filled with filth and evil, and they were demonic path people at a glance. Moreover, their Qi was turbid, and their breathing was floating and lawless. This was a manifestation of not practicing the Inner Elixir breathing method and also not concluding a Golden Core.

Each of them held a rope dart in their hands. The rope was glowing red, changing in length, and the dart head was like a dagger, constantly hitting the cloud whale.

It seemed this was their means of driving the cloud whale.

Cheng Xinzhan immediately stepped forward, without a word, and directly sacrificed a blood bead to hit one of them.

The blood bead turned into a blood glow and arrived in an instant.

"Who!"

One of them was the first to discover the blood glow coming and roared to remind his companion. At the same time, he swung the rope dart and hit the blood glow.

However, the blood glow was not a cloud whale. It was the size of a chicken egg, not only fast but also extremely agile. With a deflection, it easily dodged the rope dart and hit that person again.

That person had no choice but to sacrifice a magic treasure shaped like a scallop shell, as big as a door, protecting his front.

"Clang!"

A crisp sound, the blood bead was bounced away, but the shell magic treasure was also covered with cracks, and the blood bead was unharmed and was about to strike again.

"Wait! Which master is teaching us?"

That person spat out a mouthful of blood, didn't care to wipe it, and hurriedly shouted.

At this time, a red cloud floated near, and a young man in black robes holding a cat stood there, his expression cold.

"This master, I don't know if I have offended you in the past, why did you teach me a lesson without meeting?"

The old man who was beaten by Cheng Xinzhan until he vomited blood was a dry old man with no eyebrows and no hair, a pair of dark green triangular eyes, and vertical pupils.

At this moment, this old man was accompanying with a smile, nodding and bowing to Cheng Xinzhan, as if the one vomiting blood was not him.

The old demon was very puzzled in his heart. He and his nephew had finally lured a young cloud whale from the neighboring sea area using the Sky Cloud Jellyfish. However, this young whale was disobedient. After discovering that it was alone, it fled frantically, and he and his nephew almost lost it.

Fortunately, his family's whale hunting was an ancestral skill. The rope darts refined from the body's fangs and skin shedding were exceptionally useful for whale hunting. After catching up to the whale, they controlled the direction left and right, driving it out of the clouds. The dart head was poisonous, so the whale's speed became slower and slower, and it was slaughtered after leaving the clouds.

It was just that where did this one in front of him come from? Although he and his nephew only thought about driving the cloud whale out of the cloud pile and inadvertently entered Huang Laosan's territory, Huang Laosan had always been a coward in the Big Belly Sea, and his subordinates were all cowards. He shouldn't be so fierce, nor should he be so powerful!

The old demon's eyes turned around, but he was still respectful on the surface.

And Cheng Xinzhan also took this opportunity to activate the "Nine Yang Returning Shape Dan Pupil" to look closely, only to find that these two demons were both sea snakes, their blood and Qi were turbid, and their foundation was floating, making it difficult to achieve success.

"Whose family are you?"

Cheng Xinzhan said coldly.

The old demon heard this and straightened his back. "Back to the master, the small one is under Qing Xiaosheng."

"Woo—"

A mournful cry came from his ear. Cheng Xinzhan turned his head and saw that the other young snake demon was still unwilling to give up. Taking advantage of the cloud whale's slow speed, the rope dart in his hand was fiercely stabbed into the cloud whale's back. The dart head was completely submerged in the flesh, and the cloud whale felt pain, difficult to maintain its body shape, and slowly fell into the sea.

Cheng Xinzhan's heart was filled with fire. He looked at the old demon again and said coldly,

"What I killed is Qing Laosi's family! My old immortal is only called an immortal, what ability does he have to dare to be called a little saint!"

Cheng Xinzhan's heart stirred, and the blood bead shone brightly again, hitting the old demon again.

The old demon was terrified in his heart, thinking that it was really Huang Laosan's family. Huang Laosan, that coward, when did he recruit such a fierce character? He killed him as soon as they met!

The old demon sacrificed the shell again, but the shell shattered with one blow. The blood bead's momentum did not decrease, continuing to hit the old demon's face.

The blood bead was extremely fast. The old demon had no choice but to fight for his life, opening his mouth to spit out the snake pearl. Along with the snake pearl, there was green poisonous smoke, spraying toward Cheng Xinzhan. The blood bead and the snake pearl intersected, and both beads had cracks. The old demon spat out another large mouthful of blood, and even the light in his eyes dimmed. The snake pearl was connected to his heart, and it felt like a knife twisting in his body.

But the old demon was also relieved. It seemed that this bead was not some top-level treasure, and it was fine if it cracked. Although his own snake pearl also cracked, at least this life was saved, because he saw that his nephew had already rushed over.

For his nephew leaving the whale first and then saving himself, the old demon had no opinion at all, because as long as this cloud whale was offered, the Little Saint would definitely give a reward, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn over. Compared with this, suffering some injuries was nothing.

However, the moment after the blood bead shattered, he opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen something extraordinary. He opened his mouth, wanting to remind his nephew not to come over, but it was too late.

After the blood bead shattered, it turned into a group of blood miasma, revealing a white bone flying sword as small as an embroidery needle, which instantly submerged into the old demon's open mouth, stirred in his brain, and flew out from his eyes.

The flying sword that came out was still as white as jade, without a trace of blood.

The old demon's expression froze, and his life was cut off. He fell from the sky, turned into a giant snake ten or so zhang long, and smashed into the sea.

"Ah!"

The little demon who was rushing over saw this scene, and his eyes were bloodshot. He fiercely threw the rope dart, bringing a sharp sound of breaking the air.

Cheng Xinzhan first spat out a group of purple fire, burning away the poisonous mist sprayed by the old demon, then dodged the rope dart thrown by the little demon unhurriedly, pointed his finger at the little demon, and the white bone flying sword shot out.

!

It seemed that this pair of uncle and nephew were also poor, with no protective magic treasures, and the little demon only had the snake pearl to block. But this time Cheng Xinzhan had expected it, manipulating the flying sword to easily dodge the snake pearl, stabbing into the little demon's left eye. The sword light passed through his brain and came out from his right eye.

So, after only two or three rounds, these two unknown sea demons died in Cheng Xinzhan's hands.

Two giant snakes fell into the sea and floated beside the giant whale.

Third Sister jumped out of Cheng Xinzhan's bosom and caught the two snake pearls.

Only to see Third Sister spit out a red-gold smoke, like sparks in a furnace.

The red smoke rushed on the snake pearl, erasing the fishy smell on the snake pearl, and then Third Sister swallowed the old demon's snake pearl with cracks, and left the little demon's snake pearl to play with.

Third Sister still had a sense of proportion. Since she wanted to eat and dared to eat, it should be no problem, so Cheng Xinzhan didn't care.

He descended with the clouds. The giant whale felt pain, let out a low mournful cry, and seeing Cheng Xinzhan coming over, knowing that its death was approaching, it closed its eyes and shed two huge blue tears.

Cheng Xinzhan slowly reached out his hand, touched the giant whale, mobilized the Dharma power in the water mansion, and passed it into the giant whale's body.

"Woo—"

The giant whale let out a light cry, opened its eyes, looked at Cheng Xinzhan, and its eyes were full of doubt.

The black poisonous blood was forced out of the giant whale's wound by Cheng Xinzhan's Dharma power. The water-traveling Dharma power quickly treated the giant whale's injuries. Fortunately, after the poisonous blood was forced out, they were just skin injuries, and those hideous gaps quickly healed.

"Alright, why are you still lying here, hurry up and find your group!"

Cheng Xinzhan patted the giant whale with a smile.

"Woo—"

The giant whale let out a light cry, its tail swayed, and it swam in the sea, swimming faster and faster, swimming out of a li away with a few flicks of its tail, and then the giant whale looked back at Cheng Xinzhan.

Cheng Xinzhan waved at the giant whale with a smile.

"Woo—"

The giant whale let out another cry, then flapped its fins, flew up from the sea, flew higher and higher, and disappeared into the clouds.

Cheng Xinzhan smiled, then activated his Dharma power, lifted the two giant snakes, and then walked toward the center of this water area—Huang Liu Island—so openly.

It is said that Huang Laosan has a soft temper and a timid heart, but his own nest is still quite stable. Cheng Xinzhan walked for only a hundred li, and only then did he see Huang Liu Island from afar—where yellow smoke was rolling up to the sky, which was very easy to recognize. At this time, someone came up to stop him.

"Who dares to come near! This is Huang Liu Island!"

On two small islands adjacent to each other in front, six people suddenly flew out, blocking in front of Cheng Xinzhan in a line, their faces looking bad, and their words were also angry.

Although he had arrived at someone else's territory, Cheng Xinzhan still kept his face, only coldly spitting out a sentence,

"Go and invite the person in charge to come out and talk. If there is no one in charge, please report to Huang Laoxian, saying that a junior from the north of the land has come with a thin gift to join the old immortal."

Those people listened, looked at each other, and looked at the person holding a cat with a calm and composed appearance, and behind him were two giant sea snakes hanging, which seemed to have died not long ago.

One of them cupped his hands toward Cheng Xinzhan and said,

"So it is a friend from the land, please wait a moment, I will go in and report."

After the man finished speaking, he immediately flew toward Huang Liu Island.

Seeing this, Cheng Xinzhan stood in place and closed his eyes to rest.

And Third Sister couldn't stay idle, jumped out of his bosom again, and played with a bead emitting dark green light with her head.

As the bead went up and down, the eyes of the few people who stayed behind to watch Cheng Xinzhan also went up and down with the bead.

Someone swallowed, and said in a low voice to the person next to him,

"That seems to be the demon pearl of a second-realm snake demon."

The person next to him nodded, and immediately signaled his companion to keep quiet. Didn't you see that people don't like to talk?

Without letting Cheng Xinzhan wait long, the person who left brought back a yellow-robed strong man.

Cheng Xinzhan also opened his eyes and looked at the yellow-robed strong man, only to see that his blood and Qi were full, his breathing was long, and he knew that it was not a miscellaneous fish, but looking at his blood and Qi spiritual light, he hadn't reached the realm of Hunyuan No-Leak, and he was not a Golden Core.

At the same time, he secretly activated his Dan pupils and found that everyone here was human.

He cupped his fists toward the yellow-robed man, but his tone was still quite cold,

"Greetings, Daoist friend. The little cultivator is a loser from the land, specially come to rely on Huang Laoxian, please make it convenient for the Daoist friend."

As soon as Huang Yunying heard the person speak, he knew that this was a new defector from the land. Because only those from the land, even if they are demonic path, call people Daoist friends, and call themselves little cultivators, unlike overseas, when talking about superiors, they open their mouths and call them grandfather, immortal, saint, etc., and when talking about inferiors, they are small, slaves, bastards.

But it doesn't matter, he will get used to it after a while, because he was also a defector from the land. Huang Yunying knew that it was very fast to change. Now that he sees the Tuo King, he calls himself a slave very smoothly.

Every year, people go from the land to the sea, and every year, people go from the sea to the land. They all think that other places are better, but in fact, they are all the same—what overseas and inland, what southern and northern factions, aren't they all demons?

However, his own Huang Liu Island is considered an early arrival, and it has some fame. When coming overseas, as long as they go to the Big Belly Sea, half of them will come to inquire, but I don't know if this one will stay, and whether he has this strength.

He looked at the two giant snakes behind Cheng Xinzhan, his eyes condensed. This is a good means, a second-realm snake demon, with only one wound on the eyes, such good appearance, enough to be used as blood food for the Tuo King.

This gift is not thin!

"Hahaha, Daoist friend is too modest. Such a young talent, what loser, don't you hear that the sea is wide for fish to leap, and the sky is high for birds to fly? Come, come, come, follow me to pay homage to the old immortal. He is the most enthusiastic about Daoist friends from the land. I will say a few good words for you, let him plan a job for you, and find a place to stay!"
