Chapter 74: Joining Forces to Fight Sea Dragon Venerable

"Child! My poor child, how could this happen..."

The massive Sea Dragon body trembled and shook, its voice magnificent yet filled with desolation.

"Roar..."

It looked up to the sky and let out an angry roar; the roar shook the heavens and the earth, winds and clouds surged, the seawater boiled, and it made one's heart feel a sudden chill.

Its two enormous eyeballs suddenly turned cold and stern, staring fixedly at the crowd of creatures from the Divine Mountain Alliance, as well as Mengchen, Shi Hao, and the others.

In an instant, an incomparably vast murderous aura spread out, and it shouted coldly: "You damned creatures of the continent, all of you must die!"

"Sea God Clan, hear my command: kill them all, leave none alive."

Hearing this, all the Sea Dragons that had emerged from the sea shouted in unison: "Leave none alive, kill! Kill! Kill!"

Following this, the sea surface surged, and one after another, massive Sea Dragons rushed out of the water; their huge bodies blotted out the sky and sun, terrifying to the extreme.

For a time, in the vast and boundless horizon, hundreds and thousands of Sea Dragons galloped, as if it were a peerlessly magnificent feast, beautiful beyond compare.

Their scales and claws shone, their momentum was majestic, and they stirred up bursts of wild clouds, causing the mist to surge and press down from above, displaying incomparable majesty and power.

Looking at this scene, the creatures of the Divine Mountain Alliance felt a deep, chilling fear; their faces were extremely terrified, and they were so suppressed by this momentum that they could hardly breathe.

Some creatures could not endure this heaven-toppling pressure and immediately spoke up, wanting to distance themselves.

"No... Sea Dragon Venerable, please calm your anger! We did not kill your child."

"It was him, that bald one, he is the one who killed it."

"That's right, besides that bald one, everyone around him had a part in it! They divided and ate your child; we saw it, and we couldn't bear it in our hearts!"

"We hope Sea Dragon Venerable, in light of us telling the truth, will please not vent your anger on us..."

"We beg Sea Dragon Venerable for a holy judgment! Do not wrongly kill the innocent."

Sea Dragon Venerable is the current patriarch of the Sea Dragon clan and the father of that descendant of the Sea God.

His strength is terrifyingly peerless, and because he possesses the bloodline of the Sea God, he is an existence nearly invincible within the Venerable Realm.

Mengchen, Shi Hao, Tianhu, Heizi, Maoqiu, and the others, hearing those Divine Mountain creatures being so spineless, all cast looks of disdain at them.

In an instant, a pair of huge, cold eyes fixed upon them, "All of you deserve to die!"

"If you keep yapping, you'll die too, and your whole clan will die!" Shi Hao bared his teeth and shouted loudly.

So what if he is Sea Dragon Venerable? At most, he is only at the perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm here, and Shi Hao was not afraid at all.

"Indeed, if you keep yapping, you will only end up as a delicacy in our mouths, including these clansmen of yours," Mengchen said with a firm gaze, showing not the slightest sign of fear.

Having killed someone's child, and now being so presumptuous—how could this be tolerated?

"I will make you die without a burial place!" Sea Dragon Venerable shouted, about to strike.

"I advise you not to lead your entire clan to ruin!" Mengchen warned coldly.

His words, to Sea Dragon Venerable, naturally carried no credibility.

"Kill them! Leave no creature here alive," Sea Dragon Venerable commanded in anger.

Following this, from the dark clouds pressing down from above, countless Sea Dragons lunged out; they twisted their bodies and flew down, their entire bodies radiating peerless ferocity, with cold light flickering on their massive dragon claws.

Watching the fierce Sea Dragons charging down at them, some creatures of the Divine Mountain Alliance spoke up; some complained, while others held onto a glimmer of hope that they could make Sea Dragon Venerable change his mind and not vent his anger on them.

"Truly damned! We are going to be killed by this bald one."

"This heaven-slaying little bald donkey has caused a great disaster! He has caused us innocent ones to suffer."

"Sea Dragon Venerable, calm your anger! This matter really has nothing to do with us!"

"We beg Sea Dragon Venerable to investigate clearly, do not wrongly kill the innocent!"

"Pah... you deserve it!" Hearing the words of the crowd, Heizi, who was standing beside Mengchen, turned his head and spat a glob of phlegm at them.

Maoqiu, standing to the side, extended an index finger to flick a tuft of curly golden hair on its forehead, looking at their terrified appearance with a face full of schadenfreude.

The gazes of Mengchen, Shi Hao, and Tianhu as they looked at them were also quite colorful.

This group of people had truly miscalculated.

Not far behind, the girl in purple who had come with them—Yun Xi—was currently feeling anxious; how was she to deal with this sudden murderous intent?

Now, beside Yun Xi, there were four divine servants, arranged by her grandfather, Yun Zunzhe, to protect her, but even so, she still had lingering fears.

This Sea Dragon clan is a supreme race in the sea, with strength so powerful it is unimaginable; now that they have come out in full force, it is feared that it will be difficult to contend with them, and the outcome is likely not very optimistic.

However, just as she was feeling worried, a loud shout reached her ears: "Don't be afraid, little beast, come over to me, I'll cover you."

Yun Xi looked over upon hearing the sound, only to see Shi Hao with his eyes narrowed into slits, smiling at her.

Hearing the words "little beast," Yun Xi, who should have been furious, suddenly felt a warmth in her heart; after glancing at him, she ignored him and showed no sign of displeasure.

"Don't be afraid, demoness, you still have me!" Mengchen shouted with a smile.

Hearing this, the four divine servants beside Yun Xi immediately had joy in their eyes; they were fortunate, fortunate that they had not betrayed or blamed them just now like the other creatures.

They knew that these two were absolutely peerless in their realm and possessed extraordinary strength; with their help, they would certainly be able to protect Miss Yun Xi well and share much of the pressure for them.

"You two stinky little brothers, you didn't say you'd protect your sister!" Tianhu pouted at the two of them, then turned her head to look at Yun Xi, smiling and nodding as they made eye contact.

Hearing this, Mengchen cast a glance, looking meaningfully at Tianhu; the two stared at each other for a moment without speaking.

"Boom!"

Those Sea Dragons swooped down from the dark clouds pressing from above, their momentum awe-inspiring, and they had already reached the crowd.

In an instant, a full-scale battle erupted; divine light surged, and talismanic light covered the sky and earth.

"Meeting this bald one this time, I really have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes!" some creatures couldn't help but yell while fighting the Sea Dragons.

"Kill! Since things have come to this, only by fighting a bloody path can we survive."

Other creatures were also indignant; since the Sea Dragon clan had innocently implicated them, there was nothing more to say. It would not be so easy to kill them, and at least before they died, they would make them pay a bloody price.

"Kill..."

The sounds of slaughter shook the heavens, and all kinds of precious artifacts flew across the sky, radiating incomparable divine might.

"Ah..."

The slaughter intensified, and from time to time, living beings spilled blood across the long sky; there were members of the Sea Dragon clan, as well as creatures from the Divine Mountain Alliance.

"You harmed my child's life and ate my child's flesh; ten thousand deaths would not be enough to extinguish the hatred in my heart. Accept your death!"

Following a thunderous roar, the fierce, baleful aura in the blood-red eyes of the Sea Dragon Venerable surged to the heavens. His massive body rose, and with a flash of brilliant radiance, he transformed into human form.

He turned into a handsome middle-aged man with two horns on his head, a tall and slender build, and long, azure hair hanging down to his lower back.

"Boom!"

His cold eyes flickered, and instantly, azure waves surged to the heavens. Runes piled up and poured down like an boundless ocean, scorching and terrifying.

Mengchen and Shi Hao both became extremely excited; this was a Venerable of a generation!

Here, they would fight a Venerable at the same realm; how could they not be excited?

Mengchen was struck by a sudden impulse and said, "Brother Shi Hao, let us have a competition to see who can kill him first."

Hearing this, Shi Hao's eyes scattered divine light, and he agreed with great pleasure, "Good! It is settled."

This idea of Mengchen's happened to be exactly what he was thinking as well.

Following that, in an instant, their respective Cave Heavens were fully expanded, and they simultaneously soared into the air, leaping into the azure sea waves piled up by the runes.

As the two of them charged in, the azure sea transformed by the runes was instantly illuminated by brilliant divine light, shooting out ten thousand rays of divine radiance.

Shi Hao circled his hands, pulled with great force, and quickly dragged half of the rune-filled azure sea before him, then shattered it with a single punch.

Mengchen formed a mysterious hand seal, and the Cave Heaven behind him suddenly expanded infinitely. A wild suction force surged forth like a spatial vortex, swallowing the remaining half of the rune-filled azure sea entirely.

Seeing this, the Sea Dragon Venerable was instantly stunned, as if dumbfounded; his own powerful strike had been so easily neutralized by the two of them.

However, amidst his surprise, he also became exceptionally excited.

The ten Cave Heavens of Mengchen and Shi Hao each deeply captured his attention. "To think they are two young Supreme beings! Ten Cave Heavens is truly stunning and peerless!"

"But it is a pity that you will stop here. You killed my child, and today you must die."

The words of the Sea Dragon Venerable made Mengchen and Shi Hao feel deeply enraged.

Mengchen mimicked his tone and said, "Good! You are worthy of being a Venerable of a generation, with no small amount of strength. But it is a pity that you have angered me today; you must die."

Shi Hao displayed a gluttonous expression, rubbed his hands together, and said, "I can eat a Venerable today; just thinking about it makes one excited."

"Ah! You two dog-begotten little beasts, you are infuriating me!"

Hearing the words of the two, the Sea Dragon Venerable immediately roared in fury.

"Chi!"

The Sea Dragon Venerable transformed into a streak of light, shooting over like an arrow. His entire body flowed with scorching light, and his momentum was magnificent and peerless.

"Boom!"

"Bang!"

Mengchen and Shi Hao suddenly erupted with massive divine light, simultaneously meeting the attack and engaging in a fierce, bloody battle with him.

"Puff..."

In a short moment, after less than ten rounds of exchanging blows, the Sea Dragon Venerable flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his heart and mind shaken, "How can they be this strong!"

"I never thought that today, I would be wounded by two little ants I could destroy with a flip of my hand." After the Sea Dragon Venerable, who had flown backward, stabilized his figure, he was extremely annoyed.

Immediately following, he roared toward the void, "It is all this damned restriction."

The Sea Dragon Venerable was indignant; if not for this hateful restriction, he would have already slaughtered these two people.

Seeing that Mengchen and Shi Hao had the upper hand, Tianhu Shaonü and Heizi carried the weakened Maoqiu and killed their way toward where Yun Xi was.

Seeing Tianhu Shaonü and Heizi, who had suddenly arrived to help them resist the Sea Dragon clan's onslaught, Yun Xi felt a sudden sense of astonishment.

She did not expect that they, with whom she had no friendship to speak of, would be able to lend a helping hand in this moment of crisis.

This kindness should be remembered.

"Thank you!" Yun Xi said with a sincere expression.

As Tianhu Shaonü waved her palms to fight, she responded, "You are welcome. Since we all came together, we should naturally advance and retreat together."

"Puff!"

Looking around, the ground was already littered with corpses, a bloody sight.

Many massive Sea Dragons had been hacked into several pieces, their fierce and terrifying dragon heads severed by others, and there were also the bloody corpses of various Divine Mountain creatures laid flat on the ground, their vitality already gone.

The struggle was extremely tragic and desolate, bloody and terrifying...

"Do not blame Heaven Domain and Earth Domain if you are useless yourself!" Mengchen lightly rebuked the Sea Dragon Venerable, who was complaining about the restriction.

"Ingredients, come quickly into my bowl." As the words fell, Shi Hao formed a fist seal and was the first to charge out.

Shi Hao came across the sky, smashing out with profound divine light runes wrapped around his fist seal, causing the void to rumble and roar like a sun surging and exploding.

"You are courting death!"

High in the void, the Sea Dragon Venerable shouted.

He stood tall in the air without moving his feet, but his hands were already in motion. He pressed his fingers together to form a palm, slashing out like a divine Blade or axe, and instantly, a patch of brilliant runes appeared like divine blades.

Shi Hao was shocked; this strike was too strong. He was indeed a Venerable of a generation; even with his realm suppressed, he could still erupt with such a terrifying strike.

His strength, having just entered the Spirit Transformation Realm, was still quite lacking when dealing with a peak Spirit Transformation Realm expert!

"Boom!"

The two collided, and what was shocking was that the divine blades transformed by the runes were unstoppable, completely forcing Shi Hao back.

This strike from the Sea Dragon Venerable could definitely instantly kill a large group of Spirit Transformation Realm experts. Although his realm was suppressed, in this Spirit Transformation Realm, he could definitely be called invincible.

If it were not for the fact that Shi Hao had entered the Spirit Transformation Realm with ten Cave Heavens, he would likely have been unable to preserve himself under this strike.

Fortunately, he was only slightly shaken and injured, with no major harm.

"What a pity, to think you didn't die!" Venerable Sea Dragon said with a hint of disappointment.

Immediately, he flashed forward to attack, "Go to your death!"

"Hmph! If you have the ability, get past me first." Mengchen brushed past Shi Hao and pointed directly at Venerable Sea Dragon.

"Boom!"

The two fists collided, erupting with a heaven-shaking roar.

"You ingredient, how dare you speak so insolently? Watch me slay you." Shi Hao flashed forward to attack.

Although he had suffered a setback in the previous strike, he possessed an invincible heart that faced difficulties head-on and feared nothing.

Seeing Shi Hao attack, Venerable Sea Dragon's gaze tightened, and in an instant, he unleashed a full-strength strike, knocking Mengchen back.

It is said that one learns from experience; after the previous exchange, he was destined to be at a disadvantage if he fought both of them in close combat, so he absolutely could not give them a chance to surround him.

After being knocked back, Mengchen surged forward, his speed transcendent, killing alongside Shi Hao.

"Raging Waves!"

Seeing the two attacking simultaneously, Venerable Sea Dragon's gaze was like a rainbow as he formed seals with his hands.

Suddenly, overwhelming seawater surged in from all directions, layer upon layer, one wave higher than the next; the waves churned in the sky, extremely shocking, as if the entire ocean had been mobilized.

Seeing this shocking scene, the surging figures of Mengchen and Shi Hao came to an abrupt halt, and each formed seals to unleash their secret arts.

"Shini Baoshu!"

"Green-Scaled Eagle Art!"

Surrounded by Cave Heaven, Shi Hao's divine radiance was peerless; as he formed the seals, the emerging Runes flowed and converged, condensing into a ferocious and terrifying giant Shini and a Green-Scaled Eagle flapping its wings to soar high, each roaring toward the sky.

"Eight Divisions Heavenly Dragon!"

Mengchen unleashed the Supreme Technique from his left arm bone; under the reflection of divine radiance, eight mighty and massive Heavenly Dragons—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and gold—suddenly appeared with him at the center, coiling and eyeing all directions, roaring out a heaven-shaking dragon chant.

"Roar..."

The terrifying changes in mid-air caused many creatures engaged in bloody battle to stop and look over, once shocked and stunned.

That was the dignified Venerable Sea Dragon, whose strength was transcendent, making many Venerables wary and unwilling to make an enemy of him.

Yet now, two junior youths were completely fearless, daring to contend with him head-on.

Venerable Sea Dragon's expression was cold, the seal in his hands changed abruptly, and waves that blotted out the sky surged forth.

Seeing this, Mengchen and Shi Hao also unleashed their own in succession.

The eight massive and mighty Heavenly Dragons, the ferociously roaring giant Shini, and the Green-Scaled Eagle crying out with flapping wings met the attack.

"Roar..."

"Ah..."

The long roars and shrieks of the Heavenly Dragons, Shini, and Green-Scaled Eagle were deafening; meeting the raging waves, they caused a massive commotion, the void roared, and Heaven Domain and Earth Domain trembled in chaos.

"Puff, puff, puff!"

The waves surged and splashed continuously, turning into steam and dissipating in the collision.

At a certain moment, Venerable Sea Dragon, Mengchen, and Shi Hao all pushed their power to the limit.

"Boom... Bang!" A long-brewing explosion arrived right on cue.

"Splash, splash, splash..."

For a time, the area was hazy, with endless runic light falling, wrapped in water droplets, colorful and vibrant, as if a seven-colored auspicious rain were falling.

This chapter is a large chapter, two-in-one; I will speed up the pace later, finish the Kunpeng Nest plot within the next three or four days, and unfold new plotlines. This part might be poorly written, as subscriptions have been dropping.

Regardless, I want to thank everyone for their support.

If you have opinions later, you can bring them up; I will adopt them as appropriate and make arrangements.
