Chapter 221: Shuishen Laozu

Just as Di Shitian said, the Cultivation Method of this group of Water Tribe people has the ability to absorb the internal energy and moisture of their opponents.

Duan Fengyun felt the internal energy and water Qi within his own body beginning to stir restlessly.

Just as Duan Fengyun was about to shout that it was bad, he felt a wave of scorching heat radiating from the Kirin Arm on his right arm.

With the help of the power of the Kirin Arm, Duan Fengyun felt that the internal energy and water Qi in his body were no longer stirring restlessly.

The Kirin Arm helped him completely lock down his own internal energy and water Qi.

Duan Fengyun looked at Bu Jingyun and the others again and found that they were also composed; it seemed they each had their own ways of dealing with the Water Tribe's Shensui Jue.

As for Di Shitian's side, Duan Fengyun was not worried at all; if Di Shitian could not even handle this group of Water Tribe people, he would not have dared to come to Shen Long Dao to slay the dragon.

Through the Kirin Arm helping him lock his internal energy and water Qi, he knew that the Kirin Arm should be able to restrain this group of Water Tribe people.

And Bu Jingyun seemed to have discovered this problem as well; the taciturn martial brothers put down their swords and, each raising their Kirin Arms, slaughtered their way into the crowd of Water Tribe people.

According to what Di Shitian said, the Movement Technique of the Water Tribe people is strange and unpredictable, and they can turn into water the moment they are attacked.

However, under the attack of the Kirin Arm, the Water Tribe people who turned into water were all evaporated by the scorching heat of the Kirin Arm, and any Water Tribe person who turned into water became a dried corpse after being evaporated.

The remaining Water Tribe people saw this and shouted:

"The two of them can evaporate our Shensui Jue, everyone attack together and kill them."

But although Huaikong and the others did not have the ability to evaporate them, their strikes were much faster than the speed at which the Water Tribe people could transform into water; many Water Tribe people were slain before they could even turn into water.

The Four Great Water God Kings, who were locked in a bitter fight with Di Shitian, watched their tribesmen being slain one after another and said with grief and indignation:

"Outsiders, our Water Tribe has never taken the initiative to provoke conflict with the outside world; why have you come to disrupt our lives?"

Di Shitian sneered:

"This seat has said it: this seat has come to Shen Long Dao this time solely to slay the dragon.

If you insist on blocking this seat from slaying the dragon, then this seat will have no choice but to send you to the Western Heaven."

The Four Great Water God Kings naturally could not abandon their totem for the sake of survival; since it had come to this, they would live and die with the divine dragon.

The four of them attacked Di Shitian again; at first, Di Shitian was just playing with them, but this time Di Shitian struck with lethal force.

In less than three moves, all four Great Water God Kings were struck to the ground by Di Shitian; they looked uninjured on the surface, but in reality, their internal organs had all been shattered by Di Shitian.

The four of them helped each other stand up from the ground, and just as they were about to advance again, a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out from their mouths.

The four of them fell back to the ground due to their severe injuries, watching helplessly as their tribesmen were slaughtered by Duan Fengyun and the others.

Before them lay the corpses of countless Water Tribe members, their blood pooling together to form a small ditch.

But shockingly, the blood that had just pooled into a small ditch suddenly disappeared before their eyes, as if it had never appeared on this land at all.

And immediately after, the few of them heard a series of terrifying cries coming from deep underground, as if some monstrous demon were beneath the earth.

"Master, there is a sound from underground; could it be the divine dragon!"

Shenmu heard the cry and mistakenly thought the divine dragon had appeared.

Di Shitian shook his head and said:

"Impossible. According to the divine calculations, the divine dragon will appear on tomorrow's Day of Spirit Awakening; it will absolutely not appear today.

Moreover, only on the Day of Spirit Awakening will the divine dragon become weak, allowing this seat's dragon-slaying plan to be implemented.

If it were to appear today, then we should prepare to die here."

And the Water Tribe Chief, who had only one breath left, heard this terrifying cry and shouted:

"Patriarch, your unworthy descendants have failed to protect the Water Tribe and the divine dragon.

Please, Patriarch, strike and save our Water Tribe and the divine dragon!"

After speaking, the Water Tribe Chief cut his own hand, and the other three Great Water God Kings likewise cut their hands.

The blood of the four flowed just as it had before; as soon as it hit the ground, it vanished.

Just as the blood of the four was about to run dry, a loud boom was heard, and a figure flew directly out of the stone mountain in front of Duan Fengyun and the others.

An old man with white hair and a white beard appeared before them; the old man's two arms were enormous, and they were marked with dragon-shaped patterns.

Di Shitian laughed:

"Shuishen Laozu, you have finally appeared!"

After hearing Di Shitian's words, Duan Fengyun and the others stared at Shuishen Laozu.

Indeed, just as Di Shitian said, the arms possessed by Shuishen Laozu were like Dragon Arms, and their appearance looked even more terrifying than the Kirin Arms of Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun.

Yet Shuishen Laozu stared at Di Shitian with an expressionless face, and then Shuishen Laozu looked at the Water Tribe people nearby and rushed toward them like a madman, devouring their blood.

Seeing this, Di Shitian laughed loudly:

"It seems Shuishen Laozu has already been dead for many years; his body has not decayed because it was stained with dragon blood.

His appearance this time must be because the blood of the Water Tribe people awakened him; he is now nothing more than a shell, empty and hollow.

Is there anyone among you who wants his pair of water-and-fire-proof, blade-and-spear-proof Dragon Arms? This seat can reward them to you later."

Di Shitian did not hold Shuishen Laozu in any regard at all; he did not even hold the living Shuishen Laozu in high regard, let alone the walking corpse that Shuishen Laozu had become.

Bu Jingyun and Duan Fengyun did not speak; already possessing Kirin Arms, they had no interest in the Dragon Arms of Shuishen Laozu.

The agony they had endured when they first spent half their lives opening the Three Burner Passages was still fresh in their memories.

As for the others, they were not fools; Shuishen Laozu had been dead for many years, his whole body was filled with deathly aura, and his arms were already saturated with it.

If one were to graft them onto their own bodies, no one knew what might happen.

Furthermore, even if they could be grafted onto one's own body, without a divine physician, who could complete such a transplant?

Due to various considerations, no one present was interested in the arms of Shuishen Laozu.

When Duan Fengyun and the others were slaughtering the Water Tribe people, the Water Tribe people had been unyielding, not even crying out in pain once.

But now, the Shuishen Laozu they had revered for so long was brutalizing them and devouring their blood.

The Water Tribe people who had been wounded and knocked to the ground by Duan Fengyun and the others cried out in pain:

"Patriarch, Patriarch, it is us."

However, Shuishen Laozu, who had long since become a walking corpse, could no longer hear their calls, and he slaughtered his way through the crowd like a killing machine.

Nie Feng, who was soft-hearted by nature, could truly bear it no longer; he drew his Snow Drinker saber and charged toward Shuishen Laozu.

"Junior Brother Feng!"

"Senior Brother Feng!"

Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun had not expected Nie Feng to intervene in the affairs of the Water Tribe, and since Nie Feng had already begun to battle the Water Tribe Patriarch, the two of them naturally could not stand by and watch.

Both of them drew their weapons and charged at Shuishen Laozu.

Seeing Duan Fengyun and the other two rush forward, Huaikong was just about to step up with Heaven Sin in hand when he was stopped by Di Shitian.

Looking at the soft-hearted Nie Feng, as well as the brotherly Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun, Di Shitian said with a tone of frustration:

"What womanly benevolence!

The three of you will never achieve anything great in the end!

None of you others are permitted to intervene; let these three fellows learn that there are mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people."

Shuishen Laozu, who was still gorging on fresh blood, was interrupted in his actions by the three of them and angrily engaged in a great battle with Duan Fengyun.

Words are not proof; only after the three of them engaged in battle with the walking corpse that was Shuishen Laozu did they realize that Di Shitian had not lied to them.

Shuishen Laozu was worthy of being the strongest person in the history of the Water Tribe; no matter how the three of them struck his pair of Dragon Arms with their weapons, they remained completely unharmed.

Bu Jingyun and Duan Fengyun each used their Kirin Arms to trade a blow with Shuishen Laozu's Dragon Arms, and as a result, their arms felt a burst of soreness, as if they were about to shatter.

This was the first time they had felt this way since obtaining their Kirin Arms.

It seemed the Divine Dragon, head of the Four Great Auspicious Beasts, was not famous for nothing.

Shuishen Laozu fought with increasing ferocity, and his arms gradually transformed from human-like arms into a pair of beastly arms.

The arms were covered in scales and patterns, and the fingers had also turned into something like beast claws.

"Dragon Arms! Dragon Claws!"

Seeing the claws of Shuishen Laozu, Duan Fengyun exclaimed in his heart; these hands were exactly the same as the Blood Tribulation Hand that Duan Lang displayed after swallowing two Dragon Orbs in the original story.

However, this pair of claws on Shuishen Laozu was certainly not as powerful as the Blood Tribulation Hand.

If mere dragon blood could grant the power of the Blood Tribulation Hand, then Di Shitian would not have needed to go to such great lengths and spend so many years planning to slay the dragon.

Seeing Shuishen Laozu's momentum rising continuously, Di Shitian, worried that Duan Fengyun and the others might be injured, finally made his move.

In normal times, he would absolutely have pulled up a small stool to watch such a battle slowly.

But now that he needed Duan Fengyun and the others to do things for him, these three could not afford any mishaps.

"Step back, let this seat deal with him!"

After Di Shitian gave the order, Duan Fengyun and the others tactfully retreated.

Di Shitian soared directly into the air and stepped onto Shuishen Laozu's shoulders.

"When you were alive, you were nothing in the eyes of this seat.

Now, you are nothing at all in the eyes of this seat!"

Di Shitian exerted force with his feet, and Shuishen Laozu was driven directly into the ground.

"Ahhh!"

Amidst a series of roars, Shuishen Laozu carried Di Shitian and charged up from the ground into the sky.

Shuishen Laozu raised his arms, wanting to pull Di Shitian down.

Di Shitian took the opportunity to grab Shuishen Laozu's arms, and Di Shitian mocked:

"Without these arms, you are nothing; let this seat send you back to dust and earth."

As the words fell, with a great roar from Di Shitian, Shuishen Laozu's arms were torn off directly by Di Shitian.

As the arms were torn away, Shuishen Laozu instantly turned into a skeleton.

Di Shitian was right; the reason Shuishen Laozu could remain in that state was entirely due to these Dragon Arms.

"Since none of you are interested in these arms, this seat will destroy them!"

Di Shitian unleashed a blast of Cold Ice True Qi directly at the Dragon Arms, and the arms were instantly enveloped in frost.

Afterward, Di Shitian struck the pair of Dragon Arms directly into the ground with one palm.

With Di Shitian's strength, the Dragon Arms were driven at least dozens of meters deep into the earth, and with his thousand-year Cold Ice True Qi sealing them, this pair of Dragon Arms should be difficult for anyone to use again.

Di Shitian turned his head to look at the mob of Water Tribe people, and just as he was about to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, he was stopped by Nie Feng.

"Now that Shuishen Laozu has been slain by you, and the four Water Tribe God Kings have also been killed by you, the remaining people will no longer affect your grand plan to slay the dragon; let them go!"

Di Shitian stared fixedly at Nie Feng, then said to the surviving Water Tribe people:

"If you want this seat to spare you, that is possible; you only need to tell this seat where the Divine Dragon is.

If you dare say a single word of refusal, it will be useless for anyone to plead for you."

The remaining Water Tribe people looked at one another.

Their faith had already shattered when Shuishen Laozu began slaughtering them, and with the death of the Water Tribe Clan Leader and the three God Kings, the final straw supporting them had also collapsed.

Now, they only wanted to survive.

"The Divine Dragon is beneath the Water Tribe Ancestral Hall!"

Finally, they revealed the location of the Divine Dragon.

"Hahahaha, Divine Dragon, this seat has finally found you!"

Di Shitian laughed with a sinister cackle.

Nie Feng looked at the Water Tribe people on the side and said:

"You should go.

From now on, hide your names in the Jianghu and do not speak of what happened today."

Upon hearing this, the Water Tribe people looked at Nie Feng, then looked at Di Shitian.

After confirming there was no danger, the remaining Water Tribe people helped one another and hurriedly left this place.

Judging by their appearance, they likely would not even bother to pack their belongings; for them, the best plan at present was to flee.

Having already obtained information about the Divine Dragon, Di Shitian no longer had any interest in where the Water Tribe people went; as long as they did not come to interfere with his dragon slaying, he did not care where this group went.
