Chapter 1242: Chapter 1242: Preparations Before the Battle

Chen Nan weighed the pros and cons and felt he could take a risk; after all, these were twelve Jiao Longs. Selling them would fetch sky-high prices, bringing him a vast amount of cultivation resources.

Even if he failed, he could just run away, it’s not the first time anyway.

So Chen Nan smiled and said, "Since I’m here, I naturally want to pay a visit, but I only invite your clansmen. I don’t care for other Demon Clans."

Jiao Yan’s heart instantly rejoiced. Although their Jiao Long Clan was strong, due to a war long ago, the Demon Clan dwindled, causing the order among them to collapse.

Nowadays, hardly any Demon Clans care about bloodlines; it’s all about power, and there are quite a few open and secret fights among demon clans.

The power Chen Nan displayed was enough to make Jiao Yan take notice. In his view, Chen Nan was only weaker than his big brother Jiao Dao.

Moreover, Chen Nan was now drifting in the Endless Sea. If they could offer timely help, there was a chance Chen Nan might become an ally to the Jiao Long Clan. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

It was known that the Dragon Elephant Clan used to be a true dominator among the Demon Clans. At that time, the Jiao Long Clan paled in comparison. Now, with the former dominators in decline, clans like the Jiao Long have emerged and claimed dominance.

"Alright, I’ll go back to contact our clansmen to meet brother," Jiao Yan said while patting his chest.

Chen Nan took Jiao Yan to the water’s surface and saw a small island not far away, with no light, apparently an uninhabited island.

"I’ll wait for you on this island. Hurry back... Oh, and don’t forget to bring those humans along, but don’t harm them yet."

Jiao Yan gave a sly wink and said, "Rest assured brother, I know what to do. I’ll let you choose first."

As he was about to leave, he turned back to Chen Nan and shouted, "Brother, please be gentle next time you strike. My injuries might not heal even after half a year of recuperation."

In the previous battle with Chen Nan, he seemed to only have head injuries, but in reality, the massive power transmitted through his head to his body caused multiple injuries, not light ones.

Chen Nan laughed heartily and took out the Blood Gourd, pouring out a Demon Spirit Pill, which could assist him in cultivating the Mountain and Sea Spirit Casting Record. It’s derived from Sea Beast Essence, possibly useful to the Demon Clan.

"Try taking it."

Jiao Yan, without doubting, swallowed it in one go, the essence in the Demon Spirit Pill merged into his body, healing some of his injuries, making him instantly ecstatic.

"Brother, you actually have such a mystical pill? A few more and my injuries might heal!"

Chen Nan chuckled, pretended to be profound, and said, "Alright, go quickly. How could you lack pills?"

Feeling pleased, Jiao Yan went off to call others.

After he left, Chen Nan quickly reached the designated island, his mind moved, and Nabing Lotus Heart flew out from him. Nine Array Swords erupted, emanating sharp cold light under the moonlight.

The Array Swords whistled out, landing around the island. A Sword Array formed in an instant, star shadows emerged in the air, then faded into silence.

Then Chen Nan buried a large number of talismans in the Sword Array. These were drawn during his sea beast hunting expedition, including more than ten Seventh Grade Talismans.

Against the Sixth-Layer Golden Core Realm’s Jiao Dao, they might fall short, but injuring other Jiao Longs should be no problem.

Having arranged this, Chen Nan quickly took out a dried Snake Gallbladder, from the Black Xuan Water Snake he slew, an excellent material for talisman making.

The Snake Gallbladder contained the Black Xuan Water Snake’s venom, and when drawn into talismans, the poison’s potency would not diminish.

"Little snake, come and help!"

Chen Nan’s mind moved, the King of Ten Thousand Gu awakened from sleep, crawled onto his hand, reluctantly spewing black venom to mix with the snake gallbladder powder.

Then he took several other materials, also ground them into powder, including snake bone, scales, Demon Beast Blood, mixed them together, and the talisman materials were ready.

Taking the prepared talisman paper, Chen Nan closed his eyes, carefully recalling the Black Xuan Water Snake from before. The Endless Sea’s talismans are based on demon beasts, recreating their former glory.

The Black Xuan Water Snake’s every move played repeatedly in his mind, then he abruptly opened his eyes, pen in dragon-serpent motion, its Essence, Qi, and Spirit transformed into runes, imprinting onto the talisman paper.

With materials exhausted, the talisman paper was just finished, depleting the little mana left within Chen Nan.

Looking at the talisman paper, he grinned dangerously, "This surprise, I’m sure you’ll love it!"

...

On Qilong Island’s shore, people from Sea Wave Island were anxiously waiting, fearing bad news or being discovered by demons on the island.

After all, the collapse of the cave earlier caused quite a commotion.

At that moment, they saw a figure flying in from the horizon. Though blurry, it was surely a person, which made them instantly delighted.

But when the figure approached, their smiles vanished, for the returning one was Jiao Yan.

"Hmph, I see you don’t welcome my return. It’s okay, you’re all going to be eaten anyway, but brother gets first pick later," Jiao Yan sneered, making the Sea Wave Island people tremble.

"Where... where is that person?"

A terrified female disciple gathered courage to ask, then shrunk back behind her senior brothers.

Jiao Yan looked over, seeing them shivering under his gaze, and laughed heartily, "Haha, you think he’s a person? He’s part of the Demon Clan, a noble Dragon Elephant Clan!"

"The brother I mentioned is him, we’ll take you to him later, let him choose first."

Everyone knew what Jiao Yan meant by choosing first, one by one they fell to the ground in fright, pale-faced.

"It’s over, they’re actually a team!"

Their appearance made Jiao Yan laugh uncontrollably. He took out ropes from his pocket, bound everyone’s hands and feet, strung them together, and threw them beside the ruins.

"You stay put, if I find you’ve escaped, I’ll break your limbs first, anyway you’ll be eaten, broken limbs don’t matter."

Jiao Yan threatened viciously, then left laughing, leaving only the captives crying in despair.

They didn’t want to be eaten by demons, but they lacked the courage to seek death. Besides, even in death, demon consumption wouldn’t be hindered.

In high spirits, Jiao Yan quickly gathered his clansmen on the island, shared about Chen Nan, a figure taller than Jiao Yan stood at the forefront, with a commanding presence.

He was Jiao Yan’s big brother, Jiao Dao.

"Dragon Elephant Clan? Are you sure?" Jiao Dao expressed skepticism.

Jiao Yan pointed to the wound on his head, "Big brother, absolutely sure, besides Dragon Elephant Clan, what other demons can injure me?"

Jiao Dao nodded slowly, proud of their clan’s defensive strength.

"Then let’s meet this Dragon Elephant!"
