The sea beasts fled in all directions. Their greed for delicious food vanished into thin air with the appearance of the huge sea beast. All they cared about now was their lives.
As the sea beasts fled in throngs, they stirred up huge waves dyed with blood that crashed against the shore.
At this time, a courageous cultivator finally flew over to have a look. When he saw the bloody seawater, his legs trembled from fear. He thought the end of the world had arrived and for a moment, he did not know what to do.
With that, rumors began to spread. Some people said there was an impending attack from the sea beasts and some said it was a sign that the heavens were going to cleanse the world and punish mankind.
…
In the east of Great Yan.
The coastline of the Endless Ocean stretched endlessly, and it was dyed red with blood.
On the surface of the sea, a huge sea beast could be seen biting on a coffin as it charged through countless sea beasts and cut across the surface of the sea like a sharp knife.
…
On Golden Court Mountain.
Yu Zhenghai was holding his Jasper Saber and waving it around, looking bored. He kept repeating the same movements until his body grew numb. Only then did he stop to sit down.
At this time, a female disciple walked over. She bowed and said, “Mr. First, there’s a report from the Divine Capital.”
“A report?”
“Yes. From Hua Chongyang, the former protector of the Nether Sect.”
“Read it.”
Even at the mention of his old friends, Yu Zhenghai’s expression remained the same.
“A strange phenomenon has occurred in the Endless Ocean. The seawater has turned into blood, causing cultivators and the ordinary folks to panic.”
“The seawater has turned into blood?” Yu Zhenghai frowned. “Alright. I’ll go and have a look.”
With that, Yu Zhenghai left the Evil Sky Pavilion and rushed toward the Endless Ocean. With his current cultivation base, his top speed had now surpassed Kui Niu.
After half a day of flying at top speed, Yu Zhenghai arrived at the seaside. He saw many cultivators hovering in the air, looking at the blood-red water.
“What happened?”
“There are so many sea beasts’ carcasses. Perhaps, they’re fighting among themselves? Don’t be fooled by the rumors.”
At this time, a cultivator flew back from the Endless Ocean and said, “There are beast emperors out there. They’re scaring away all the weaker sea beasts. It seems like they’re headed east.”
After listening to the conversation in his surroundings, Yu Zhenghai felt like something was amiss. He left a series of afterimages in his wake as he flew out to sea, causing everyone to exclaim in surprise.
…
Yu Zhenghai went to the spot where he had sunk the coffin and swept his eyes across his surroundings.
Sea beasts’ carcasses littered the surface of the sea. Some of the carcasses were so fresh that blood was still gushing out from them.
Yu Zhenghai’s expression stiffened upon seeing this. A vein throbbed on his forehead and he shouted, “Seventh Junior Brother!”
Then, he brought out the Jasper Saber and unleashed a 10,000-feet-long energy saber, which seemed to carry a force that seemed capable of splitting the sky and earth, that descended from the sky.
Swoosh!
It struck the sea, stirring up a huge wave on both sides. Alas, the Endless Ocean was too deep. How could he split the sea with just his energy saber alone? The sea quickly returned to its original state.
Yu Zhenghai continued swinging his saber in a frenzy. All the carcasses on the surface of the sea were diced up by him.
However, no matter how many times he hacked, it was useless. After an hour, he had no choice but to give up. He looked at the surface of the sea helplessly. He did not want to accept the fact that even if there were no sea beasts, Si Wuya would have been long carried away by the currents.
He sighed heavily as he continued to look at the sea. Finally, just as he was about to turn around, a cultivator dressed in silver armor appeared next to him. Surprised, he asked, “Who are you?”
“Get lost!” the silver-armored cultivator said coldly.
Subsequently, a soundwave swept toward Yu Zhenghai, sending him flying back. He grunted before blood trickled out the corner of his lips. With this, how could he not know the person before him was an expert whose cultivation base far surpassed his?
Yu Zhenghai flipped in the air and stepped on the surface of the water before he stabilized his footing. After wiping the blood off the corner of his lips, he said, “I don’t know you. Why did you attack?”
A trace of surprise flashed in the silver-armored cultivator’s eyes as he exclaimed, “You didn’t die?”
Yu Zhenghai turned to look at the sea. It seemed like this matter was not simple. The silver-armored cultivator was likely not from the golden lotus domain. He had to think of a way to leave. After a moment, he asked, “Are you from the Great Void?”
The silver-armored cultivator frowned and said, “Lowly ants actually know about the Great Void?”
Following that, the silver-armored cultivator launched a black palm seal.
Bang!
In just a second, it sent Yu Zhenghai flying back again.
The silver-armored cultivator landed on the surface of the sea, stepping on it as though he was on land. Then, he said, “You actually managed to withstand two moves from me. Interesting.”
Humans might not care about ants hiding in the grass, but if an ant grew to the size of a spider, humans would definitely kill it.
Splash! Splash! Splash!
The silver-armored cultivator walked on the surface of the sea. His confident smile revealed his killing intent as he said, “Since the Equalizer is carrying out a task, you shouldn’t be here.”
Then, the silver-armored cultivator shot out toward Yu Zhenghai, leaving afterimages in his wake. When he arrived in front of Yu Zhenghai, he pushed his hand out.
At the same time, Yu Zhenghai pushed his hand out as well.
Bang!
The collision stirred up huge waves immediately.
The silver-armored cultivator looked at Yu Zhenghai and said with a hint of praise, “You’re a very tenacious ant. Originally, I thought this mission was going to be boring. I guess it’s not as boring as I imagined it to be…”
Then, the silver-armored cultivator seemed to vanish into thin air before he reappeared below Yu Zhenghai and struck upward with his hand.
Yu Zhenghai spun around and unleashed his energy saber.
Bang!
The silver-armored cultivator whose hand was still above his head received the energy saber head-on. A black lotus bloomed under his feet as he soared up, pressing back against the energy saber.
Boom!
Yu Zhenghai flew out again.
The silver-armored cultivator smiled slightly and said, “Alas, my time is limited so I can’t play with you anymore. I’m going to end this now.”
A shadow flashed and appeared above Yu Zhenghai in just a second. At the same time, a black lotus spun out toward him.
Yu Zhenghai hurriedly cast his First Trial ability. His body flashed red before he merged with his avatar.
When the black lotus hit Yu Zhenghai, his golden lotus shrank and vanished into his Dantian’s sea of Qi.
“A life-saving ability?”
Splash!
Yu Zhenghai sank into the sea.
The silver-armored cultivator sensed the movement under the water. When he could not detect any life force, he nodded in satisfaction as he said, “Only foolish people would protect their Birth Charts with their lives. Without your life, what use are your Birth Charts?”
After confirming there was no sign of life, the silver-armored cultivator began to investigate the strange phenomenon.
…
At the same time.
At the Qin clan’s southern training hall.
Lu Zhou had already rested for half a day.
At this moment, Qin Renyue paced back and forth as he muttered, “The sky has been pierced…”
“The people of the Great Void don’t recognize you. Why are you so afraid?” Lu Zhou asked.
Although the Great Void knew there were four Venerable Masters in the green lotus domain, they did not know about the specifics.
Qin Renyue replied, “But that woman recognizes you!”
“I haven’t even settled the score with them, and yet, they dare to look for trouble with me?” Lu Zhou said.
“…”
Qin Renyue said, “Now’s not the time to care about pride. In any case, I’m not worried about Brother Lu, but what about the others?”
Upon hearing these words, Lu Zhou fell silent. Indeed, he was not worried about his life; no one could do anything to him. However, what about his disciples? He had already lost one disciple. How could he repeat the same mistake?
Finally, Lu Zhou said, “You’re right.”
Qin Renyue nodded as he said, “I’m glad Brother Lu agrees with me. By the way, I have an excellent place for you to cultivate.”
“No need,” Lu Zhou rose to his feet and said, “I have another place.”
“Where is it, Brother Lu?”
“Unknown Land is vast.. With its environment, there’s no better place for cultivating than that place.”
