With indifference in his eyes, Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, “King Jinhuang led the way in the front, so he should have already entered into this sea area. So, why didn’t I see him?”
“Right! If King Jinhuang had been there, we would haven’t suffered such great losses.”
“Perhaps King Jinhuang had already suffered misfortune.”
All the people were pessimistic. They were no longer in the frame of mind to seek the Xuanwu Heritage, they only wished they could get out of this sea area alive.
A 10-meter-long warship fragment was sailing quickly from the other direction.
Standing on the warship fragment, Green-robed Emissary and four older evil masters waded into the crowd. They did not stop until they were in front of Zhang Ruochen.
Green-robed Emissary sneered and said, “Perhaps your King Jinhuang has entered the Xuanwu Heritage place and is taking the Xuanwu Heritage. How could he consider your life and death? Humph!”
Looking at Green-robed Emissary, Zhang Ruochen discovered that a layer of pale golden light was flowing on the surface of his skin, shining like metal.
It could be concluded that he had broken through to the Second Change in the Fish-dragon Realm and actualized Skin Refining to Gold.
However, he was not able to control the expansive power inside his body after the breakthrough, so his skin sent out golden rays.
Those monks at the Second Change in the Fish-dragon Realm who had practiced for a long time were able to handle them freely. They could constrict the golden rays in their bodies.
Green-robed Emissary and those evil masters looked ferocious and hostile.
They gradually dispersed to form a half-ring of encirclement and approached Zhang Ruochen.
Since King Jinhuang and the Seventh-Level soldiers of the Primitive World were not present, everything was in disorder and everyone was jittery. All their thoughts concentrated on how to leave the Bloody Trench, so nobody cared about the laws and regulations of the Ministry of War.
How could Green-robed Emissary miss this opportunity?
Zhang Ruochen said with a spurious smile, “What are you doing? Are you trying to start a fight here?”
Green-robed Emissary said with a smile, “Why can’t we fight here? Zhang Ruochen, are your military merits already almost 30,000,000 points?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “Do you want to kill me before I reach the Ultimate Realm?”
“Yes.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “Don’t you want to know where Iron Lady, Huo Wuji, and Huo Guang have gone?”
“You killed them?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “I didn’t kill them, but I can assure you that you won’t see them again.”
Green-robed Emissary remained calm and said, “Are you trying to scare me? Today, I must fight with you to see your capabilities.”
As he put his palms together and then separated them slowly, a ball of green fire came out between his 10 fingers.
With a woosh, the three-meter-long Roaring Flame Hammer flew out of the green fire.
At the top of the hammer, a huge skull was enveloped by the fire, which looked like a torch. The fire from the hammer burned up, sending out tough Saint Power.
“Swoosh!”
As Orange Star Emissary swung her arms, the Dragon Lock Chain flew across 33 meters and hit Green-robed Emissary on his chest.
Green-robed Emissary went backward and escaped the attack of the Dragon Lock Chain.
“Snap!”
With a loud Qi explosion, the Dragon Lock Chain hit in the void space, shaking the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
After Orange Star Emissary killed Iron Lady, Zhang Ruochen gave the Dragon Lock Chain back to her.
Green-robed Emissary gnashed his teeth in hatred and said coldly, “Orange Star Emissary, it seems that you’ve completely betrayed the Black Market. In that case, I won’t show you any mercy. Today, I’ll eliminate you together.”
All four of the old Evil Warriors behind Green-robed Emissary were top-class masters.
Among them, there were two elders who had reached the Sixth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm.
The Genuine Qi inside their bodies gushed out of their pores and diffused all around, manifesting as two giant savage beasts—a dragon and a tiger.
The two elders were brothers and few people knew their real names. However, they had a very resounding title: “Dragon and Tiger Evils”.
It was said that if they collaborated, they were strong enough to fight against superiors at the Seventh Change in the Fish-dragon Realm without failure.
Even though Orange Star Emissary had broken through to the Third Change in the Fish-dragon Realm, she looked dignified and was heavily guarded when confronting the Dragon and Tiger Evils alone.
Just then, Zhang Ruochen sensed something and looked into the distance.
“Swoosh!”
His Sky Eyes emerged from between his eyebrows. He saw a warship approaching, as giant as a lofty mountain.
The sea fog obscured his vision.
However, his Sky Eyes could still see the area beyond 15 km.
Zhang Ruochen’s facial expression altered slightly. He stared at Huang Yanchen, Ao Xinyan, and Orange Star Emissary and said, “A Half-Saint class warship is sailing toward us. Let’s get out of here quickly!”
Upon hearing this, all the people were startled.
Of the four Half-Saint class warships, three had been damaged and the last one was taken away by the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King.
Needless to say, it had to be the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King!
As an indigenous dominator of the Xixuan Sea, the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King was comparable to a Half-Saint. Almost all the soldiers of the Primitive World had heard of him.
Without any hesitation, all the soldiers of the Primitive World present began to run away.
“Extraterritorial humans, you can’t escape now!”
The Half-Saint warship could be faintly seen in the fog. It was blocking the route in front of everyone.
The water gurgled.
Many giant redcloud pythons came over and encircled the entire sea area. With their heads above the water, they uttered ear-splitting roars.
Being close together and numerous, the redcloud pythons could be seen everywhere.
“Boom!”
A Flood Dragon Tribe Commander at the Sixth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm suddenly jumped out of the water with its jaws wide open. It bit a Primitive World soldier’s body in two.
It contracted its throat and swallowed half of the body.
All the Primitive World soldiers around him were scared and immediately escaped far away.
The scales, on the Flood Dragon Tribe Commander’s head, gradually retracted into the skin. Then, a woman’s head appeared. She burped and said happily, “Extraterritorial humans taste delicious. Regrettably, I’ve eaten 29 men, so I couldn’t eat another bite now.”
Among the Primitive World soldiers, a relatively young soldier pointed at the Flood Dragon Tribe Commander and said in dismay, “That is who ate Wang Jing and Lu Qingyao.”
The Flood Dragon Tribe Commander laughed loudly and ran over to him as quick as a flash. It devoured the young soldier directly.
Encircled by Flood Dragons, all the soldiers fell into despair because they could not find a way out.
And once they were in despair, even those who were determined would break down, panic, and even cry bitterly.
Even the evil masters of the Black Market were pale and could not help retreating.
Zhang Ruochen remained calm and stared at the Half-Saint class warship not far away. He saw a tall figure standing on the ship.
He knew instinctually that this figure was really the most horrible enemy.
The figure was 2.4 meters tall and wore red armor. He looked very strong and impressed people with his arrogance.
He had a bony face, deep eyes, and a high nose. Above his head, a scarlet flower was suspended, and like a magic lantern, it sent out brilliant rays.
Although he had constricted his aura, Zhang Ruochen could still sense that some destructive force was likely to lie inside him.
And once it broke out, that force would be powerful enough to kill everyone present.
“He must be the dominator of the Xixuan Sea, the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King, a Sixth Level Savage Beast,” Zhang Ruochen thought.
With his hands behind his back, the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King looked over the Primitive World soldiers and exposed a slight smile on his face. At that moment, he felt as if he was a god who controlled the fate of all living beings.
His voice ran through the entire sea area. “Extraterritorial humans, you should be sentenced to death because you came to the Xixuan Sea and invaded our territory. However, I’m different from you. I won’t drive away and exterminate everyone. I can spare your lives.”
Upon hearing this, those Primitive World soldiers who were in despair suddenly had a glimmer of hope for their survival.
Was the king really willing to set them free?
They knew that it was quite impossible, but they were still full of expectation.
The Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King looked at them with contempt and mockery. “How naive human beings are! They really think that I’ll let them go,” he thought. Then, he continued, “Below you is the unfathomable Bloody Trench. “Meanwhile, the Xuanwu Heritage place is there. Now, your only way to survive is to dive into the Bloody Trench. If you’re lucky enough, you may get the Xuanwu Heritage.”
Green-robed Emissary sneered and said, “Well said. You just want us to help you open a path by losing our lives. Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King, do you also want to obtain the Xuanwu Heritage?”
“Shut up!”
The king glared at Green-robed Emissary with Saint Power gushing out of his pupils, which condensed into two light columns.
Green-robed Emissary immediately screamed. His eyeballs ruptured, with blood shedding constantly from his eye sockets.
The Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King reached a hand out across the void space to take away the Holy Weapon, “Roaring Flame Hammer”, in Green-robed Emissary’s hands.
The king grasped the handle of the hammer and released a ball of holy flame from his palms to refine the Vessel Spirit inside the war hammer.
He nodded and said with a sigh, “You are just a man at the Second Change in the Fish-dragon Realm, so you don’t deserve a Holy Weapon. I’ll take care of it for you.”
“Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King, you’ve insulted me beyond my limit.”
Green-robed Emissary endured the pain and roared with anger.
With the green flames inside him, he clenched his fists, leaped into the sky, and threw a punch at the Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King.
“Thump!”
As the king waved his arms, a cloud of Qi poured out and struck Green-robed Emissary, who was beaten into a mass of bloody mist, with his bones broken into a fine powder.
With just a wave of his hand, the king had turned an emissary into flying ashes, and it was as easy as killing an ant.
The Black Skeleton Flood Dragon King sneered and said sarcastically, “Today, I only want to insult you, extraterritorial humans. Who dares to defy me? You are just a bunch of ants, so you should feel greatly honored to have a chance to open a path for me. Now, is there still anyone who isn’t willing to enter the Bloody Trench?”
