Chapter 420 Shocking All Sides
He had absolute confidence in the defensive capabilities of his own body! The "Deep Sea Mystic Barrier" around his body, which was tens of feet thick and highly compressed and condensed from pure water-attribute demonic power, was one of his strongest defensive barriers!
Not to mention damaging his skin, which was covered with thick keratin and comparable to a top-tier defensive magic weapon. Even the Ninth Elder of the Star Palace, with his peak early Nascent Soul cultivation, could only barely pierce through the Xuan Gang and leave some superficial wounds on his body when he unleashed a full-force attack with the Star Sword.
The newly ascended Nascent Soul cultivator before me possesses a magical flying sword that appears to be of excellent quality, but how many years can it be nurtured? And how powerful can it be? It probably won't even be able to break through my own "Deep Sea Profound Qi"!
However, in the next instant—
"laugh--!!!"
The anticipated violent collision did not occur. Instead, there was a tooth-grinding, sharp sound, like a blade cutting through leather, faint yet crystal clear!
The four seemingly "ordinary" golden-blue giant swords suddenly unleashed a burst of dark golden sharpness at their tips the moment they came into contact with the "Deep Sea Profound Qi." The extreme sharpness of the Geng Essence Qi, which was "unbreakable and indestructible," was fully displayed at this moment!
The thick and solid Xuan Gang, faced with this extreme sharpness, was like butter under a hot knife, easily cut and pierced! It formed almost no effective obstacle!
Even more terrifying was the immense power contained within the flying sword, originating from the "Mysterious Yuan Pearl," which erupted immediately after its sharpness! Like four giant cones containing the power to split mountains and cleave the earth, it slammed into the gap torn open by the Geng metal energy!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"
Four muffled sounds of sharp weapons piercing flesh, almost in one order, accompanied by a soft "crack" of bones breaking, rang out clearly!
"Awooo—!!!"
The colossal whale's massive body shuddered violently, as if struck simultaneously by four invisible mountains! Immediately following, a piercing scream filled with unbelievable pain and terror erupted, the enormous sound even sending dust flying from some of the buildings below.
On the giant whale's massive body, four shocking, terrifying blood holes, each over ten feet in diameter and seemingly bottomless, had appeared!
Located on its forehead, the side of its neck, the center of its spine, and its vital side! Dark blue, demonic blood, like a small waterfall, gushed out from the four blood holes like a fountain, staining a large area of the sea and sky red!
At the edge of the wound, the muscles were twisted and rolled, and there were wisps of golden, sharp energy that, like a bone-deep ailment, were constantly eroding and preventing the wound from healing. There was even a faint tendency for it to spread into the body and destroy life!
"You—!" Whale King's horrified screams were filled with incomprehensible fear.
He never imagined that his proud "Deep Sea Profound Qi" and powerful physical body would be as fragile as paper in front of these four flying swords!
This person's divine sense is abnormal, which is one thing, but I didn't expect his flying sword to be so sharp as well.
The excruciating pain and the threat of death instantly overwhelmed all greed and ferocity.
Whale King dared not linger in battle any longer. He even disregarded the enormous energy required to maintain his giant whale form. His body flashed with demonic light, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed back into the stout, giant human form with black markings on his face, standing over ten feet tall.
At this moment, however, he looked utterly wretched. His chest, shoulders, side abdomen, and back—the four sword wounds corresponding to his original form from the giant whale—were oozing dark blue demonic blood, soaking through his tattered crimson armor.
His face was ashen, his breath weak and disordered, and his eyes were filled with the fear of surviving a disaster and a deep sense of dread. He stared intently at the black-robed figure standing on the roof of Mingyue Tower, his hands behind his back, his expression chillingly calm.
Looking at the other person's face again, I suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, as if I had seen them somewhere before.
"You—you are the mysterious body cultivator who injured Old Monster Zhang ten years ago on the outskirts of the sea!" Whale King shouted in undisguised horror as he desperately channeled his demonic power to suppress the eerie sharpness emanating from his wound.
"You—you've actually managed to condense a Nascent Soul again! Dual cultivation of body and magic—no wonder! I, Whale Power King, will remember this grudge!"
Having uttered this fierce but cowardly threat, Whale King dared not linger for a moment. A burst of dense blue light, formed from his essence blood, suddenly erupted from his body, enveloping his heavily injured form. It transformed into a long blue rainbow and fled desperately towards the vast deep sea beyond Silver Shark Island without looking back!
Their speed was even greater than when they arrived, clearly indicating that they had used a life-saving escape technique that depleted their vital energy!
"Hmph, Silver Shark Island isn't a place you can come and go as you please." Luo Ming stared at the fleeing blue rainbow, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and snorted coldly.
Then his figure blurred, and a blue light flashed around him, transforming into a blue escape light that was not dazzling but incredibly fast. Like a leech, it chased after the direction in which the Whale King had fled!
"That newly advanced Nascent Soul cultivator—actually drove away the Whale King, who was in the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm?!"
"They didn't just drive them away! They were severely wounded and fled in disarray! Look at the blood splattered all over that demon!"
"This senior actually chased after him! Did he intend to capture that transformed demon cultivator?"
Below, countless low-level cultivators who had been secretly watching from afar, their hearts pounding in their throats, witnessed this earth-shattering and awe-inspiring scene. They erupted in a cacophony of exclamations, discussions, and ecstasy!
Who would have thought that the arrogant mid-stage demon cultivator who broke through the formation and wanted to seize treasures and kill people just a moment ago would be severely injured by this mysterious newly promoted Nascent Soul senior with four swords in the blink of an eye, and flee in a sorry state, and even be chased by the other party!
This completely overturned their understanding of the strength of Nascent Soul cultivators! Especially since this senior looked so young, it added to his legendary aura.
In the distance, Yuan Yao's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down considerably. Gazing at her husband's tall, imposing figure, his black robes fluttering as he pursued the powerful enemy, her eyes overflowed with tenderness and pride. But then, a deep-seated worry quietly surfaced again. The demon race was cunning, and the deep sea even more so… its home turf. Would Luo Ming be in danger pursuing the enemy alone? She clenched her fists slightly, and could only pray silently.
Wen Siyue and Jiang Ruyin, standing to the side, were flushed with excitement, their beautiful eyes gleaming with admiration as they gazed in the direction Luo Ming had disappeared. Their master was so powerful! He could even defeat a mid-stage Transformation Realm demon cultivator!
Jiang Rufeng watched Luo Ming's departing light, his expression complex and difficult to decipher. There was shock, relief, and a deep sense of emotion.
Back then, I followed this person by chance. Who could have imagined that in just a few decades, he would have grown to such an extent? Not only was I able to save my life, but my daughter's incurable illness was cured, and my own cultivation improved even more.
He glanced at his excited daughter beside him and secretly resolved to work even harder in the future to cultivate her talent in array formations, in order to repay his master's kindness and to earn a better future for her.
The moment Luo Ming appeared on the top of Mingyue Tower and coldly snorted, repelling the giant claws of Whale King, the old monster of the Giant Octopus Clan's face changed instantly. His eyes were filled with disbelief and a belated fear.
"It's him! It really is him!" Old Monster Zhang roared in his heart, as if the severed wrist was throbbing again.
He originally thought that with the Whale King, who was in the mid-stage of transformation, leading the way, and the four transformed demon cultivators joining forces, they could definitely succeed by launching a sneak attack at the critical moment when this person was condensing his nascent soul. Even if they couldn't kill him, they could at least severely injure him.
But to his utter surprise, this person not only successfully formed his Nascent Soul, but also possessed terrifying strength! With a single, unbelievable attack of divine sense and four bizarre flying swords, he instantly and severely injured the strongest, the Whale Power King, forcing him to burn his essence—
Blood fled for his life!
This is hardly a "newly promoted Nascent Soul"! This is clearly an ancient ferocious beast in human skin!
"This human cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage has immense potential; we must report this to the Golden Flood Dragon King and the Suanni King." Without hesitation, Old Monster Zhang immediately transmitted his voice to the nearby Fire Owl and the sinister flying beast demon cultivator, the Nether Vulture: "The Whale Power King has fled! This man's supernatural abilities are bizarre, and his strength far exceeds our expectations! If we continue fighting, our lives may be in danger!"
Although Huo Xiao and Ming Jiu had never directly fought Luo Ming, they had clearly seen the scene just now where Whale King was pierced by four swords, his blood splattered in the sky, and he fled for his life in a sorry state. They were also shocked and chilled to the bone.
Even the Whale King, who was in the mid-stage of transformation, couldn't withstand a few sword strikes from the opponent. What could they possibly do if they went up there? Just throw their lives away?
The three demon cultivators, now in human form, exchanged glances, all seeing the same fear and reluctance in each other's eyes. With such a formidable figure suddenly appearing on the human side, the situation for their demon race would likely be far more difficult. Right now, survival was paramount!
"withdraw!"
Almost at the same time that Zhang Laoguai transmitted his voice, the three demon cultivators, with great tacit understanding, simultaneously made a feint and unleashed their strongest divine powers, temporarily forcing their opponents away. Their figures transformed into three streaks of demonic light, and they dispersed and fled towards the deep sea area, which was in a different direction from the direction that Whale Power King had fled!
However, how could the three Nascent Soul cultivators of the human race let them have their way?
"Fellow Daoists, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" The Ninth Elder's eyes flashed with starlight, and his face showed undisguised surprise and determination. While unleashing a sky full of star-like sword energy to tightly entangle the Nether Vulture that was trying to escape, he urgently transmitted his voice to Blood Fiend and the cultivator surnamed Yan.
"This newly promoted fellow Daoist possesses extraordinary abilities, managing to severely injure the Whale King! Now is the perfect opportunity for us to severely damage or even capture these few transformed demon cultivators, weakening the demon race's top combat power! We absolutely cannot allow them to interfere with Fellow Daoist Luo's pursuit, or take the opportunity to escape!"
"Haha! Just what I wanted! I've been wanting to kill this hairy beast for a while now!" Blood Fiend laughed wildly, his bloodthirsty aura erupting like a volcano, carrying an even more violent killing intent, blocking the transformed fire owl's retreat.
He had been quite frustrated by Huo Xiao's speed, but now that he saw Luo Ming displaying his prowess, his morale was greatly boosted. How could he let his old rival leave?
Although the cultivator surnamed Yan remained silent, a sharp, cold glint flashed in his eyes. Gray energy surged around him, his figure flickering like a ghost, and strange gray threads shot out from his sleeves, like a leech, wrapping around Old Monster Zhang who was trying to escape.
For a time, the battle above Silver Shark Island became even more intense and dangerous due to Luo Ming's amazing performance! The three human Nascent Soul cultivators no longer held back, and unleashed all sorts of trump cards, secret techniques, and magical treasures, launching a tidal wave of attacks to tightly entangle the three transformed demon cultivators who wanted to retreat.
Roars, howls, the clash of magical weapons, and the explosions of supernatural powers resounded through the sky, and the aftershocks of the battle dyed the sky with a variety of colors.
