He unleashed two Dragons of Evil Qi, and empowered himself with another two.

With his power fully unleashed, Zou Feng lunged at the golden Fishman leader with a savage grin.

From the moment he saw this leader, he never once thought of letting it go.

Relying on his sensitivity to poisons, he had long since discovered that this Fishman with golden Scale Armor contained an incredibly potent toxin within its body.

It was far stronger than any of the ones he had previously refined in the sea.

This was a feast delivered right to his doorstep; of course he wouldn’t let it get away.

Invoking the name of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect was merely a distraction, allowing the toxic Dragons of Evil Qi that had slipped into the sea to strike successfully.

After spending more than ten days in a place with thin Spiritual Qi, Zou Feng was in dire need of a supplement to replenish himself...

About an hour later, the Xiangrui, sailing at full speed, had already fled a great distance.

To be on the safe side, Huo Qishan spared no expense, burning through the ship’s Spirit Stones to continuously accelerate the Xiangrui.

Although consuming so many Spirit Stones meant he would earn much less from this trip, he couldn’t afford to worry about that now.

Standing at the stern, Huo Qishan kept looking back, terrified that some other sea race would catch up to them.

He was grateful that Zou Feng had stayed behind to fight the enemy, but he still thought Zou Feng’s decision was extremely unwise.

The difference in Realm with the golden Fishman leader was secondary; the main issue was that this stretch of sea was, after all, the home turf of the sea races.

Once a fight broke out with these creatures, other sea races from the vicinity would converge on the location like sharks smelling blood.

So, even knowing that Zou Feng was a prodigy of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect with the potential of a True Inheritor, he still felt Zou Feng’s chances were slim...

But just as he was mentally lamenting Zou Feng’s fate, he saw a miniature Flying Celestial Ship skimming across the distant sea, racing toward them at extreme speed.

With his eyesight, Huo Qishan could clearly see Zou Feng squatting on the bow of the Flying Celestial Ship, his expression grim.

At that, Huo Qishan had a sudden realization.

’So he had a Flying Celestial Ship on him! No wonder he was confident enough to stay behind and fight the enemy alone.’

’After all, even if he couldn’t win, he could still escape with the speed of the Flying Celestial Ship.’

However, as he watched, Huo Qishan noticed that Zou Feng’s expression seemed very wrong...

’No way. Even with a Flying Celestial Ship, could he still not shake off those sea races?’

Huo Qishan’s question didn’t last long, because he soon saw that the ones pursuing Zou Feng weren’t the Fishman sea race from before at all.

It was... three colossal sea dragons!

The good news was that these three sea dragons were only equivalent to human Cultivators at the Dao Foundation Realm.

The bad news was that a sea dragon’s Dao Foundation Realm was normally beyond the reach of an ordinary Dao Foundation Realm Cultivator.

There was no helping it; their physical strength alone created too vast a gap.

Seeing this, Huo Qishan cried out internally, ’My life is over! There’s no escaping this!’

At that moment, Zou Feng also spotted the Xiangrui in the distance.

He hadn’t intentionally led his pursuers here; he was simply fleeing in a panic and happened to catch up to the Xiangrui.

’But there’s still time. The three sea dragons are only after me. If I change direction quickly, the Xiangrui should be safe.’

So, without even hailing Huo Qishan, Zou Feng pretended he didn’t know him at all and steered the Flying Celestial Ship in another direction.

The encounter was as brief as could be—a fleeting meeting, a swift departure.

Seeing Zou Feng lead the three sea dragons away again, Huo Qishan let out a long sigh of relief, feeling as though he had just taken a stroll through the Ghost Gate.

Before, he had judged Zou Feng’s chances of survival as slim. Now, he revised that to absolutely none.

’And I’m completely powerless to help. The only thing I can do is my best to deliver Zou Feng’s two widows safely to the Eastern Earth Immortal Realm...’

Elsewhere, Zou Feng was cursing his luck.

He had just fought a great battle with the golden Fishman leader and, as expected, had managed to kill it.

But just as he was savoring the fruits of his victory and beginning the Refinement of the golden Fishman leader, three sea dragons had roared and emerged.

And even invoking the name of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect had been useless.

In truth, Zou Feng could tell that for these three sea dragons, capturing him to avenge the golden Fishman leader was just a secondary objective.

More importantly... they wanted to devour him and refine the poison in his body.

That’s right. All three sea dragons were poisonous creatures, true and proper poison dragons.

In the eyes of these three dragons, he was no different from a walking Thousand-year-old Ginseng.

Fortunately, although the name of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect was useless, he still had his Flying Celestial Ship.

’My decision not to use the Flying Celestial Ship to cross the sea earlier was absolutely the right one.’

’Otherwise, my Spirit Stones would have been consumed prematurely, and I wouldn’t have the energy to keep accelerating the Flying Celestial Ship now.’

But this wasn’t a surefire solution. At this frantic rate of consumption, the Spirit Stones he carried would run out before long...

Luckily, he wasn’t too far from the coastline of the Eastern Earth Immortal Realm.

So, Zou Feng would periodically take out his Token to check if there was a signal.

’As long as I can reach a location where the signal from the Celestial Dao Cauldron can be received, I’ll definitely be saved!’

"Brat, you can’t escape!"

"Pushing your Flying Celestial Ship like this, how long can your Spirit Stones last?"

"If you sever one of your own arms, we’ll let this matter go!"

Not far behind him, the three sea dragons continuously tried to interfere with Zou Feng with their words.

Their voices clearly contained a bewitching power, making them sound no different from a hypnotist’s.

But Zou Feng, naturally, didn’t believe a single word.

’Severing an arm would drastically reduce my strength. I’d only die faster.’

’These three poison dragons want to chew my very bones. How could they possibly be satisfied with just one of my arms?’

"You’re the ones who shouldn’t make a fatal mistake! If something really happens to me, you’d better think carefully about the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect’s retaliation!" Zou Feng snorted heavily.

The lead red sea dragon heard this and burst out laughing. "Oh my, the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect! I’m so terrified..."

"Do you take us for fools? You’re just a mere Inner Sect Disciple in the Spiritual Energy Realm. You think the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect would make a special trip to the Fallen Immortal Sea to avenge you?"

"You little brat, you think too highly of yourself. Besides, do you know why this sea has the words ’Fallen Immortal’ in its name?"

’These three mad dragons are starting to show signs of Dementia, or perhaps the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect just hasn’t cleaned up the trash in the sea for a long time, causing these Alien Races to gradually forget the terror of being dominated by the Sect.’

After that, Zou Feng said no more and focused on controlling the Flying Celestial Ship.

The Spirit Stones he had on him truly couldn’t last long at this full-speed burn.

But at such a high speed, the journey that would have originally taken three or four days was rapidly shortening...

Amid the intense chase, a night quickly passed.

Because the three sea dragons were in the water, able to shoot a great distance with a flick of their tails, their own energy consumption was low.

Their pursuit speed had still not noticeably decreased.

Meanwhile, Zou Feng’s Spirit Stones were about to run out.

By now, Zou Feng’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the Token in his hand.

’If there’s no signal soon, things will get truly dangerous. I’m afraid my only choice will be to empower myself with four Dragons of Evil Qi at once for a final, desperate gamble.’

He had only ever empowered himself with two Dragons of Evil Qi before, because his physical body truly couldn’t handle any more.

After all, being constrained by the Spiritual Energy Realm, there was a limit to how strong his body could be, and he couldn’t just ignore those limits.

If he forced it, he might have a good chance of creating distance and escaping with his life, but he feared it would take about ten years of recuperation for his body to fully recover.

The dream of establishing his Dao Foundation in a short time would become empty talk.

Next, Zou Feng pressed his last handful of Spirit Stones onto the central Array of the Flying Celestial Ship.

’If this handful of Spirit Stones runs out and it’s still not enough time, then I’ll have no choice but to go all out...’

The next moment, the Token from the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect finally vibrated on its own and began to emit a faint glow.

Seeing this, Zou Feng almost wept with joy.

’There’s a signal!’

With no time to celebrate, Zou Feng hurriedly picked up the Token and quickly sent a message to Jiang Wanzhao.

The message was simple and clear: "Jiang Zhenchuan, save me!"

Once the message was sent, there was no need to specify his location. With a signal, the positioning function would activate, and Jiang Wanzhao would naturally be able to find him.
