Chapter 614

Every divine messenger is at least at the Earthly Immortal Realm.

The typical captain rank has even reached the Heavenly Being Realm.

The Divine Search Palace has five hundred such divine messengers!

With these five hundred divine messengers, plus a host of top-tier experts, Master Changsheng originally believed he had solved his own aging problem.

The Nine Provinces would forever remain under his control.

He would truly become the god of all beings.

But all of this became foam with the emergence of the Qinglong Society.

Five hundred divine messengers may seem terrifying, but the Qinglong Society has three hundred and sixty-five branches, each brimming with countless experts.

Not even all of them have been fully exposed yet!

Above them are the Twelve Months, the Four Seasons, the Twenty-Four Solar Terms, and the supreme Seven Dragon Heads.

Add to that the guest masters Di Shitian, Xiao Jingtian, and Xiao Aoshi.

The Qinglong Society's power far surpasses that of the Divine Search Palace.

Master Changsheng, helpless, could only suppress his desire to emerge.

Now, he merely wishes to achieve eternal life.

Bu Jingyun is missing within the Qinglong Society and is not easy to deal with, given the fear of provoking the Qinglong Society.

His father, Bu Yuanting, was taken away by the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen after the battle at Lanruo Temple.

With no other options, Master Changsheng turned his attention to the legendary Divine Dragon.

On this day, he had gathered six experts and six divine weapons.

Plus Miss Xue Yuan and her divine weapon, totaling seven!

According to Old Fahai, seven divine weapons, combined with seven warriors of great fortune, on the Day of Auspicious Omen, can slay the dragon.

With all preparations complete, the five hundred divine messengers of the Divine Search Palace silently arrived at the East Sea.

They then boarded ten large ships and set off in grand procession toward the Dragon God Island.

When Zhang Sanfeng once searched for the Dragon God Island, he drifted upon the sea for countless days.

Only through Ximen Wudi's guidance and a stroke of fortune did he finally reach the island.

This time, the Divine Search Palace had made thorough preparations for their journey to the Dragon God Island.

The sea charts were already completed, awaiting only the raising of sails.

Along the way, towering waves and violent storms arose, yet they encountered no real danger.

As the Dragon God Island came into view, the Left Grand Divine Officer immediately stepped forward to announce the good news,

"God, look—the Dragon God Island has arrived!"

Master Changsheng, seated steadily in the largest cabin, had already used his astonishing eyesight to glimpse parts of the island's appearance.

He realized that though the island appeared primitive, clear signs of human activity were evident.

He understood within: these must be the so-called Water Tribe people!

Suddenly, his gaze drifted to the sea surface, his brow furrowed as he barked,

"Danger! Enemies are attacking! Order the divine messengers to engage…"

No sooner had he spoken than several thunderous crashes echoed.

Then, from the other ships—including Master Changsheng's own vessel—voices cried out,

"Something in the water has pierced our hulls!"

"Who dares attack the Divine Search Palace? Divine messengers, engage!"

The Divine General flung back his cloak and gave the command.

Of the five hundred divine messengers on the ten ships, those left behind for defense were few; the majority plunged directly into the sea.

At the Earthly Immortal Realm, one can fly through the air and manipulate part of the heavenly and earthly qi.

Entering the sea, therefore, posed no great difficulty.

Moreover, captain-level divine messengers generally possessed Heavenly Being Realm cultivation.

Nearly five hundred divine messengers surged into the sea like dragons entering water.

Upon entering the sea, they discovered countless strange fish below.

These strange fish opened their huge mouths, relentlessly gnawing at the ship hulls.

Deep below, faint human figures could be seen giving orders.

"Damn it! Kill!"

Seeing several hulls already pierced, the divine messenger captains immediately transmitted orders via true qi, signaling to strike and kill.

Even though movement in the sea was less convenient than on land,

each divine messenger's destructive power remained astonishing!

Even without weapons, each divine messenger could use their own true qi to stir the seawater and crush the strange fish.

Though the strange fish beneath the sea were numerous, they could not withstand the slaughter of five hundred divine messengers.

Soon, not only the strange fish in this region, but even passing small fish and shrimp, were all utterly annihilated.

The distant human figures, witnessing this, were startled and immediately sought to flee underwater.

The divine messenger captain suddenly clenched his palm—the seawater twisted into a whirlpool, trapping two of them and hurling them straight out of the sea.

At this moment, all ten of the Divine Search Palace's ships had already had their hulls gnawed through and were slowly sinking.

After emerging from the sea, the five hundred divine messengers did not return to their ships; instead, they gathered around Master Changsheng's vessel, awaiting his next order.

As for the two strange figures the captain had dragged from the sea with the water whirlpool, the Right Divine Officer on the surface had already seized them and brought them before Master Changsheng.

"Are you Water Tribe people?"

At this moment, the cabin kept leaking water, but Master Changsheng remained calm, glancing at the two men and asking directly.

"We're not, we're just…"

One of them still tried to lie.

But before he could finish, a faint emerald gleam flashed in Master Changsheng's eyes.

The next instant, the man stood frozen like a wooden statue, as if turned into a fool.

"Ah Qi, Ah Qi, what's wrong with you?"

The other man, worried for his companion, immediately stepped forward to ask.

In that brief moment, Master Changsheng had already used a secret technique to sift through Ah Qi's entire memory.

Then his pupils returned to normal, and he sneered.

"I came here only to slay the dragon; I had no wish to accumulate too much bloodshed."

"Yet you vermin—though I left you alone, you dared to provoke me!"

As he spoke, he swept his hand outward, and a fierce gale surged forth.

The next instant, flames erupted on both men, and amid their agonized screams, they were reduced to ashes together.

After disposing of the two, Master Changsheng floated out of the boat, hands clasped behind his back, and flew toward Dragon God Island.

At this point, the island was less than a thousand zhang away in a straight line.

Even ordinary divine envoys felt no strain.

Divine Generals, Divine Officials, and the six elite warriors Master Changsheng had recruited all took to the air, following him toward Dragon God Island.

Upon reaching the island, Master Changsheng did not descend to the ground, but pointed toward the southeast corner and said,

"There—that is the village of the Water Clan!"

"I hear there are still one or two Heaven-level experts inside."

"To prevent any obstruction to the dragon-slaying, all seven of you will go and wipe out this village, and bring me their chieftain."

"Treat it as your preliminary drill!"

The "seven" he referred to were, of course, the main force assembled for the dragon-slaying!

How come the Qinglong Society's shadow appears everywhere?

"I came only to slay the dragon and test your blade. Slaughtering women and children is not the way of the Wu Zhiren."

The one speaking was naturally Huang Ying.

Though this man was from You Dongying, he was a martial obsession, and deeply upheld the code of martial ways.

"My Lord, I too have no wish to kill women and children…"

The one speaking was naturally Miss Xue Yuan.
