Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal
Chapter 522 - 131: Demon Race Attacks!
"Ding!"
A crisp metallic collision sounded as the Golden Sword pierced the Black Island Demon King’s lower left claw!
"Whoosh!"
The Black Island Demon King cried out in pain, waved its right claw, and a flash of black light destroyed the Golden Sword.
Everyone attacked together, yet could only lightly injure this flood dragon.
The Ink Flood Dragon truly belonged to the Flood Dragon Race, and that layer of black light was their innate divine technique,
with incredible defense,
and since Demon Beasts have naturally strong physiques, it was understandable that everyone couldn’t achieve much.
"I want you all dead!"
The Black Island Demon King roared, and suddenly thousands of feet of seawater boiled, followed by one giant sea dragon after another rising,
as many as thirteen in total, each over a hundred feet high, 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
roaring as they rushed towards Master Zhehui and others.
At the same time, six Great Demons were rapidly approaching from not far away, and within twenty breaths, they would arrive!
"What should we do?!"
Everyone was shocked and horrified!
Originally, they planned to join forces, first severely injure this Ink Flood Dragon, and then calmly escape.
But the strength of this flood dragon exceeded their expectations,
and even working together, they could only inflict a minor injury!
As such, their goal was not only unmet, but they were also held back by this Ink Flood Dragon,
and once the remaining six Great Demons arrived, escaping would be even more difficult.
If trapped here, with the Beast Tide approaching, they would surely perish!
In this critical moment, Master Zhehui remained calm and instructed:
"Now, the only plan is to scatter and flee!"
"Among these Great Demons, only this Ink Flood Dragon is troublesome, the rest are mere common rabble!"
"Go, you all leave quickly, I will hold this flood dragon off for a moment, then leave this place!"
With that, he flipped his palm, pulled out several Tier Three Talismans, activated them, and blocked the Water Dragons coming from behind!
"Senior Brother, what about you!" Master Huadu exclaimed.
"I have a treasure bestowed by my master, survival is not a problem!"
"Alright, Senior Brother, be careful!" Master Huadu nodded, then changed his spell and transformed into a streak of spirit light, swiftly departing.
The others followed suit, each choosing a direction and flying away quickly!
The Ink Flood Dragon roared in anger upon seeing this,
then, the few Great Demons behind it split into six directions, each choosing a Human Race Cultivator to chase.
It then looked at Master Zhehui in front of it, eyes showing an interested expression:
"Human, you’re quite good. If you’re willing to submit to me, I may spare your life!"
"Is that true?"
Master Zhehui couldn’t help but show a hint of temptation.
Seeing this, the Black Island Demon King was stunned, not expecting the human to actually consider agreeing,
but in the next moment, a flash of golden light and a giant golden shear over ten feet long appeared in front of it.
Aimed right at its neck, it came down fiercely!
"Courting death!"
The Black Island Demon King roared angrily, its figure flashed,
"Ding!"
The golden shear grazed past the Ink Flood Dragon’s body, cutting off a piece of flesh, leaving Master Zhehui quite regretful.
He quickly took out a talisman, activated it, stuck it on his body, and turned to flee.
Seeing this, a hint of ferocity flashed in the Black Island Demon King’s eyes,
its single horn atop its head glowed, and suddenly a beam of black light shot out, passing through thousands of feet,
and appeared in front of Master Zhehui!
"Bang!"
A red light shone from Master Zhehui’s body, blocking the black light outside.
The black light and red light intertwined for a moment, then quickly dissipated, then the black light directly hit Master Zhehui’s body.
"Pfft!"
Master Zhehui’s aura weakened significantly, severely injured.
Unexpectedly, this Ink Flood Dragon had this ability,
able to directly cross space and hit Master Zhehui’s body.
If it weren’t for the life-saving treasure bestowed by True Monarch Qianchuan and the close-fitting Spirit Armor on him,
he would have fallen now.
But even so, he was not in a good condition!
When the black light struck, the Ink Flood Dragon lifted its Flood Dragon Tail high, whipping it fiercely towards Master Zhehui!
"Bang!"
Another loud bang,
the dragon tail directly hit Master Zhehui,
sending him hurtling like a cannonball into the sea below, creating massive waves dozens of feet high.
Master Zhehui felt his internal organs shifting, if not for his Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivation and strong vitality, this blow would have been fatal.
He forced mana into his hands for a spell to rise from the sea,
but the next moment, black light flashed, and a sharp claw appeared before him, slicing through his neck.
"Swoosh—"
Master Zhehui only felt himself lifted into the air, then plunged into endless darkness!
It turned out that when the Black Island Demon King’s tail struck Master Zhehui, its right dragon claw also swept over.
Killing him in one blow!
Thus, True Monarch Qianchuan’s proud disciple, Master Zhehui, a late-stage Core Formation cultivator famed in Sea Suppression Immortal City, perished!
Having killed Master Zhehui,
it then opened its mouth wide, a suction force formed out of thin air, pulling Master Zhehui’s corpse in, swallowing it whole.
"Roar—"
The Black Island Demon King roared to the sky, seemingly very satisfied.
Then it looked towards a direction where a Core Formation Cultivator was fleeing, transformed into a black light, and chased.
...
Celestial Talisman Island,
when Master Qianfu left, he handed the Array Manipulation Token to Zhou Xun.
After all, once he left, only Zhou Xun could unleash the full power of this array,
at the same time instructing his disciple Luo Yuancheng to guard Celestial Talisman Island well.
Zhou Xun took the token, casually put it into his Storage Bag, and resumed cultivation.
In the Cultivation Room, Zhou Xun sat cross-legged on the ground, eyes tightly shut, a trace of pain appearing on his face.
Trickles of purple thunder arcs flickered across his body, permeating into him.
His entire body took on a pale purple hue.
This was the Body Refining Secret Technique from the Purple Sky Thunder Technique—Divine Thunder Body Tempering Technique!
Over these years in seclusion, Zhou Xun had never ceased its cultivation, and now, decades later,
he was more than halfway to the Body Refining Eighth Layer.
To Zhou Xun, having a strong physique greatly enhanced his defensive capabilities,
after all, he had laughed last several times thanks to his formidable body.
After half a day, Zhou Xun slowly finished his cultivation, the purple on his body gradually faded, revealing his natural skin tone.
White as jade, without blemish, and beneath the skin, there seemed to be a faint sound of thunder arcs.
"Not bad, at this rate, in at most thirty years, I will step into the Eighth Layer!"
Just then, Zhou Xun’s gaze sharpened, looking out towards Celestial Talisman Island.
Just a hundred miles south of the island, two figures were flying frantically,
and behind them, a hundred-zhang-high tidal wave was sweeping over, teeming with sea beasts.
At its peak stood a massive Ink Flood Dragon over three hundred feet tall!
"The Beast Tide has arrived!"
