Chapter 658-Unbreakable King’s Mentality

Just as Ouyang Shuo was spending money like water, the voyage squadron led by Zheng He was facing some problems.

7th month, 26th day, Gibraltar Straits.

Malaga City, the Spanish territory closest to the port, had rushed over in just a night. However, the huge squadron did not find anything at the port.

When they found the empty port, the soldiers looked at one another.

“Cowards!”

The speaker was a fellow with a black beard known as Juan. He was one of the strongest Lords in the south of Spain. Juan had led his troops over because he wanted to snatch the glory of being the first to start the fight.

However, he had not expected for such a situation to occur.

“Are they toying with us? They started a country war then ran away? Shameless!”

“Sire, what should we do now?” His subordinate Dafu carefully asked.

Juan looked at the empty port and a cunning look shone in his eyes, “The enemy ran away, so this glory is ours for sure. Rush into the port; let’s occupy Gibraltar Port.”

“Understood!” Dafu laughed.

Just like that, Juan ‘went through so much trouble’, ‘courageously fought’, and finally destroyed the Shanhai City Squadron, recovering Gibraltar Port. When the news spread to the forums, the country was naturally delighted.

“The world’s best Lord? Haha, what a joke!”

“The Invincible Squadron is invincible!”

On the forums, some people were mocking Shanhai City, and some were blindly worshipping the Spanish Invincible Squadron. Some people even spread the news to China, raising the attention of the other country’s players.

“Shanhai City occupied Gibraltar Port? Surely not!” Greece, Italy, and other countries that had traded with the voyage squadron did not believe this news.

“Haha, those stupid easterners have lost so much face!”

“Arrogant Spanish!” However, some were displeased by the Spanish.

The Spanish Squadron regarded itself as the owner of the Mediterranean, so how would the other countries feel happy about this matter?

“Looking at all the battle records of Shanhai City, there is none where they surrendered easily. They have surely set a trap and are waiting for the Spanish people to fall in. Then they will give the Spanish a slap to their faces.” There were still people who believed in Shanhai City.

“I agree!’

……

The celebrations of the Spanish people were too early and too short lived.

At 9 AM, the voyage squadron struck.

Zheng He made use of guerrilla tactics to strike all around; they would either perform sneak attacks or ambushes, causing a lot of problems for the Spanish Squadron. Ship after ship were sunk by the voyage squadron, infuriating the Spanish.

The Spanish people felt that they had lost face, and their embarrassment turned into anger. Amongst which, the most furious one was naturally Juan, who swore he would crush the voyage squadron.

The Spanish people were not fools. After tasting defeat, they immediately changed tactics and stopped traveling alone. The unified Spanish Squadron patrolled the Gibraltar Straits, continuing to shrink their search area.

With that, the voyage squadron were forced into a tough situation.

Helplessly, Zheng He could only gather the four split up units to avoid the Spanish Squadron from hitting them one by one. In the end, they could only rely on their speed to avoid the enemy.

Atlantis, land of survivors.

The golden light in the cave grew more and more vibrant, and the golden liquid in the pool was about to be filled up.

Just as the pool filled up, the 12 shields protecting the golden magnetic ohlite suddenly spread out, revealing the stone itself. The stone looked like a gigantic golden sun, extremely eye-catching.

When Kalia saw this scene, she stepped up, and the purple crystal around her neck floated up. Then, she clapped her hands together and shut her eyes tightly as she communicated with the golden stone.

“Don’t tell me that this stone is actually sentient?” Ouyang Shuo was astonished.

After a short while, the light burst apart, filling the entire cave with warmth and a blinding golden light, seemingly possessing a sort of mysterious energy that one could not help but worship.

Even Kalia knelt to the ground.

Ouyang Shuo’s eyes focused as he rotated the Yellow Emperor Cultivation Technique to resist this pressure. He was a Lord, a king, so how would he yield to a rock?

The golden light probably felt the resistance from Ouyang Shuo as it covered him with a stronger pressure, wanting to make him yield.

Ouyang Shuo could only feel a massive strength bearing down on him from all sides. The pressure on his head was especially strong, becoming stronger like a mountain pressing down on him.

Beads of sweat seeped out from his forehead.

Ouyang Shuo gritted his teeth, trying his best to use his mental strength to resist. However, he felt helpless; the harder he tried, the stronger the golden light grew, increasing the pressure and causing his bones to crackle.

“Ah!”

Ouyang Shuo gritted his teeth, unable to hold on any longer as he sat on the ground. The primordial energy in his body rotated crazily, breaking the limit of his daily cultivation.

The insides of his meridians were similarly shining golden.

Before this, on the unknown island, the washing of the spirit energy from the dragon vein had strengthened his meridians. Under such pressure, they gave out an incredible toughness and vitality.

Limitless potential was transforming into actual strength.

Under such pressure, the golden primordial energy in his body grew denser and denser, thicker and thicker. The cultivation speed of the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique was increasing at a discernible rate.

However, in Ouyang Shuo’s heart, there wasn’t any joy.

The pressure from the golden light continued to increase. All his bones emitted cracking sounds like the sound of frying beans, a scary sight.

If this continued, Ouyang Shuo was definitely going to be crushed into a pile of meat paste.

“Yield! Yield to me!”

Maybe it was an illusion, but such words floated into his ear.

“Never!”

Ouyang Shuo’s eyes were blood red and his face looked savage, “The dignity of a king won’t be stepped on!”

After activating the golden primordial energy, the devil bloodline in his body was also activated. A black aura rose up from Ouyang Shuo’s body to fight against the other aura.

The black bloodline and the golden primordial energy mixed together in his body, shining brightly.

This was the first time Ouyang Shuo had used these two totally different powers at the same time. This was also the first time they had fought together against a common enemy.

Black and gold, incredibly harmonious.

One could even say that these two were growing closer and closer, merging with one another.

If he could merge these two powers together, it would be an amazing fortuitous encounter. Helplessly, this process was unusually difficult; the two powers sometimes merged but sometimes split up.

If this went on, it would probably require more than a day.

The golden gold was obviously not going to give Ouyang Shuo that time. Seeing that it was unable to make him yield, the golden magnetic ohlite was a little ‘furious.’ Hence, it increased the pressure by three times.

The sky and the oceans were boundless with no end. The skies were filled with golden clouds, but the earth was dark and gloomy like it was made all out of steel and iron.

On this earth, there was only Ouyang Shuo alone.

The golden cloud layer continued to press down on him.

Ouyang Shuo planted his feet into the ground, his hands pushing against the heavens as he let out a furious holler.

The golden sky continued to press down, causing Ouyang Shuo’s spine to curb under the pressure. The earth under his feet did not move, making him bear the pressure of the heavens alone.

Ouyang Shuo raised his head and looked around, but he only saw golden clouds around him. The short but thick and heavy cloud layer made it hard for one to breathe, making one feel despair; it was like there was no hopes of escaping.

Cough!

Instantly, Ouyang Shuo suffered internal injuries and coughed out a mouthful of blood; his face turned ashen white.

“Damn it!”

Ouyang Shuo wiped the blood off the side of his mouth; his facial expression looked extremely gloomy.

He totally did not expect such a change to occur when everything was right about to succeed. “Is Gaia unhappy that I completed it so easily, so it wanted to increase the test difficulty for me?”

Ouyang Shuo’s brows were locked tight, making him yield in defeat was impossible. Even if he went all out and failed and had to accept the punishment for failure, he definitely would not allow himself to yield to a rock.

Similarly, as the queen, Kalia could bow to it as it was a symbol of the Atlantis people. However, to Ouyang Shuo, it was just a rock that provided energy.

“I have no choice; I only have one last shot!”

Ouyang Shuo calmed himself down and focused, sinking into his subconscious state, trying to connect with the fate dragon. The only thing that could help him go against this pressure was the mysterious fate dragon.

In the skies above the oceans, hiding in the clouds, was a half-red, half-purple dragon that stretched for 10 miles. It slowly opened its sleepy eyes, looking down at the depths of the ocean.

Aang! The roar of a dragon broke out.

Instantly, a strong dragon’s might past through tens of thousands of miles and descended onto Ouyang Shuo. Under the dragon’s might, the golden light around Ouyang Shuo exploded.

“Hu!” Ouyang Shuo let out a deep breath, sweat dropping like rain.

The golden light lost but tried to gather itself once more.

At this very moment, Kalia was woken up by the dragon’s roar. When she regained her bearings, she saw the ashen, white-faced Ouyang Shuo, and she instantly understood the situation. Kalia was astonished, clapping her hands together and once again starting to communicate with the golden magnetic ohlite.

Who knows what she said, but the golden light covered Ouyang Shuo once more. Weirdly, Ouyang Shuo could not feel any suppression. Instead, the golden light slowly seeped into Ouyang Shuo’s body.

All of a sudden, his internal injuries healed.

One could even say that his used up primordial energy was replenished.

When Ouyang Shuo saw this situation, he stopped using his Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique and the devil bloodline, waking up from his trancelike state. He looked at the floating golden ohlite with a complicated expression.

This time, he had gained a fortuitous encounter because of a calamity.

However, Ouyang Shuo would never want to face such a test a second time.

……

After the short interruption, the changes continued.

The golden light passed through the dome and headed for the ‘clouds’. Instantly, the entire survivor land was covered in a golden light. Under this cover, it seemed like a heavenly place.

At the same time, the magnetic ohlite on the neck of every Atlantis person emitted a glow. Some green, some blue, and even some purple, truly eye catching and colorful.

“A sign from the gods!”

Similar to Kalia, all the Atlantis people knelt on the ground, their faces filled with sincerity and joy. They could feel that the opportunity for them to rise once more had arrived.

The golden light did not stop and actually broke through the sky, passing the energy barrier of the survivor land and spreading out. In less than 10 minutes, the entire Atlantis ruins were covered in the golden light.

Under the nourishment of the golden light, the mysterious carvings on the buildings suddenly came ‘alive’, and the blue glow formed many mysterious patterns.

Instantly, the corals and seaweed on the structures turned to dust. Even dust, mud, and such things were all removed from the ruins and no longer existed.

The ruins of the city were suddenly renewed. The sea god temple in the middle of the city gave out an eye-catching blue light, dark blue with a lot of depth. Now, the sea god statue became lifelike.

Only the broken pillars and statues with missing arms and legs told the tragic tale of the city.

The Divine Martial Guards outside of the sea god temple were astonished when they saw this. Luckily, Kalia had told them that the golden light was not nefarious.

Deep under the ocean, the eye-catching golden light turned the deep blue ocean into a golden ocean.

Suddenly, rumbling noises broke out from the depths of the oceans like that of mountains shaking and the earth moving. The entire ruins shook, the shaking increasing in intensity.

All the golden light around the ruins suddenly charged toward the center of the city. It gathered together and burst forth, forming a massive golden ball that encapsulated the entire ruins.

At the same time, every Atlantis person, and even the Divine Martial Guards, were hidden in this golden bubble that protected them.

The tremors from deep down became more and more intense. The surrounding regions of the ruins started to crack and form terrifying trenches.

The trenches were becoming wider and deeper.

Cracks more than 10 meters in size formed, a shocking sight.

Honglong!

A titanic explosion sounded out from the depths of the ocean like the rumbling of thunder.

Kachi!

A weird noise like a twig being broken followed; this was the sound of the land region cracking.

With that, Atlantis finally separated itself from the ocean floor. 10 thousand years of change had made the ruins and the bottom of the ocean closely linked together, so these cracks instantly generated a massive tsunami.

If ships passed by, they would face a terrible fate.

The bigger the tsunami at the depths of the ocean, the wider the range of effect. For this tsunami, the entire Gibraltar Straits was affected. Within the ocean, be it the Spanish Squadron or the voyage squadron, they were like babies in front of the tsunami.

Honglong!

Another deafening sound.

Atlantis, which had sunk 10 thousand years ago, was finally going to appear in front of the world again.
