Chapter 294: Chapter 191: Celestial Essence Battleship 3
No, if they had really swept through in advance, Venerable Mo Shan wouldn’t have warned
about the dangers in the sea. Clearly, they haven’t set out yet.
If that’s the case, then what about the oddities in this sea realm?
Li Mu’s brows furrowed, feeling that sothing was amiss. There must be demons in unusual circumstances, but it’s unclear where!
If only I could refine that Divination Spiritual Artifact!
This thought flashed through Li Mu’s mind, making him subconsciously wary.
"First, figure out the situation, then seek the Tier Six Flood Dragon." Li Mu wasn’t reckless; he’d feel uneasy if he couldn’t understand the situation.
Li Mu thought of the Eight-Clawed Demon King from before; this hundred-kiloter sea realm should be under its dominion, so it would likely know sothing. Why not catch it and interrogate?
Li Mu imdiately flew back to the previous sea realm, sensing the Spiritual Qi fluctuations left from the earlier battle, and continued his pursuit.
After half a cup of tea, Li Mu finally caught up to the Eight-Clawed Demon King. What he saw shocked him!
The Golden Core Cultivator who had previously called for his help had been torn apart by the Eight-Clawed Demon King, left with only his upper half, horrifically mangled.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator had only a leg remaining, dangling from a tentacle.
As for the Nascent Soul True Monarch who wielded the compass, his whereabouts were unknown, with slim chances of survival.
Li Mu saw two storage magical treasures floating on the water’s surface and collected the two storage rings.
The movent caused when collecting the storage rings was noticed by the Eight-Clawed Demon King.
The Eight-Clawed Demon King turned around, with its eight tentacles like long whips sweeping toward Li Mu, overwhelming and covering the sky.
Facing the formidable strike of the Tier Five Peak Demon King, Li Mu unleashed five Tier Five Top-Grade Spirit Swords. The five swords combined to transform into a Five Elents Giant Sword, slashing horizontally with robust Five Elents Sword Qi whistling in.
Seeing the robust and sharp Five Elents Sword Aura, the Eight-Clawed Demon King showed a panicked expression. Its eight giant legs swiftly retracted into a defensive stance, quickly intertwining and forming a massive shield to protect its vital parts.
"Puff!" With a loud crash, the gigantic sword aura sliced through the flesh wall ford by the eight giant legs.
With a "boom," a huge severed limb smashed onto the sea surface, raising monstrous waves.
With the Full-Level Profound Celestial Sword Array, once Li Mu started, he beca radiantly full of Sword Intent, sharp and imposing. Under his control, the Five Elents Giant Sword sliced again and again, fast and urgent, leaving no chance for counterattack.
In just a few breaths, Li Mu controlled the Five Elents Giant Sword, chopping the ’mountain of flesh’ several yards long into countless segnts, with blood rapidly staining the sea.
Ultimately, under the terrified gaze of the Eight-Clawed Demon King, Li Mu sliced its massive body into two halves with one sword strike.
The demon body was destroyed, and the Eight-Clawed Demon King’s Essence Soul escaped, frantically fleeing toward the deep sea.
Li Mu smiled slightly, how could he let it have its way? The Five Elents Giant Sword broke through the air, forming the Five Elents Sword Domain to imprison it.
Li Mu flew over and casually pinched the Eight-Clawed Demon King’s Essence Soul in his hand.
The Essence Soul of the Eight-Clawed Demon King struggled fiercely, terrified and uneasy. Li Mu used his Divine Thought to try to communicate, yet received a chaotic ssage.
With a wave of his hand, Li Mu directly stored the Eight-Clawed Demon King’s Essence Soul into the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion.
Inside the Treasure Mansion.
Not all Tier Five Demon Beasts can speak, and the Eight-Clawed Demon King was one of them, leaving the interrogation task to the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape.
After about an incense stick’s ti, the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape extracted all the issues in question.
Li Mu summoned the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape out to the sea realm.
Having not left the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion for a long ti, once outside, the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape glanced left and right with its ape brain, excitedly ’hoo-hooing’ and hamring its chest at the sight of the vast ocean it had never seen.
"Hmm? Have you forgotten your proper business?"
Li Mu gave the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape a cold glance and asked coolly.
"Master, I’m sorry. I’ve never seen such a big sea, got a bit carried away!" The Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape hastily apologized, sheepishly.
Li Mu understood this creature; having stayed in the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion for hundreds of years, though called an immortal place, it felt like a prison to it.
The Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape started explaining: "Master, originally the Star Gazing Sea in this sea realm had a Tier Six Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon, which was previously injured by a joint attack from the Human Race and has since gone into hiding for decades. It recently re-erged, but now it has beco extrely fierce."
"Upon reappearing, it specifically targeted high-level sea demons, killing them and consuming them after. Even the other two Tier Six Demon Beasts here suffered the sa fate. As they were also consud, this Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon beca the domain’s ruler, rampaging without restraint, attacking high-tier demon beasts and passing Human Race Cultivators."
Within just a few months, nearly all high-tier demon beasts in the surrounding several hundred kiloters of the sea realm vanished. The Eight-Clawed Demon King was clever enough to sense danger, fled ashore, and only returned after ensuring the Flood Dragon moved further into the sea, proclaiming itself as the king here.
Li Mu finally understood, feeling a bit troubled.
The Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon had indeed moved to a more distant sea realm, a tactically challenging prospect, for how does one search the vast sea?
As Li Mu pondered how to find the Two-Horned Cyan Moon Flood Dragon, the Jade-Eyed Long-ard Ape recalled another detail and quickly added: "Master, the Eight-Clawed Demon King also ntioned that it has claid the Flood Dragon’s hiding place, where there seed to be sothing peculiar."
A hiding place?
Li Mu raised his eyebrows, suddenly recalling that if he could find any scales or remnants of the Flood Dragon’s body parts at its hiding place, he could use the Tracking Array taught by Venerable Tianyan to trace its whereabouts.
Having sorted out his thoughts, Li Mu called forth the Eight-Clawed Demon King’s Essence Soul to lead the way.
Faced with the strong power of the man and beast before it, the Eight-Clawed Demon King dared not resist, drifting ahead to lead.
