Chapter 1021: Chapter 173: Summoning Court’s Spy
After Yun Sheng obtained a new Summoner’s Ring at the Summoning Institute, the Seventh Summoner once proudly showed off his own Summoner’s Ring to her.
According to the Summoning Court’s hierarchy, Summoners are ranked from lowest to highest: Beast Language User, War Beast Summoner, Scepter Summoner, Witch Beast Master, Holy Beast Master, Thirteen Main Summoners, Red Robe Summoning Emperor.
Each rank has a different Summoning Ring, ranging from the most ordinary iron ring to the highest Purple Gold Ring. The soul stones embedded in the rings range from low-level demon beasts to Holy-grade demon beasts. It’s said that the soul stone on the Summoning Emperor Ring belongs to a Divine Beast.
However, starting with Holy Beast Summoner, including Holy Beast Master and Thirteen Main Summoners, they are all summoners of Holy Beast Level or higher, making their rings easily recognizable.
Especially the Thirteen Main Summoners affiliated with the Summoning Court, their thirteen custom Summoner’s Rings are easy to distinguish.
The ring on that Shark-man’s hand is identical in style to the rings of the Seventh Summoner and the Second Main Summoner whom Yun Sheng conspired to kill, except the soul stone on it is slightly different.
However, the strength of this Fish-head Human summoner feels significantly stronger compared to the previous Second Main Summoner and Seventh Summoner.
His status in the Summoning Court must also be quite influential.
But why did the main summoner from the Summoning Court suddenly appear in this deep sea? Or perhaps, like her, is this enigmatic summoner here to investigate the cause of death of demon beasts in the Demon Beast Forest?
Yun Sheng pondered, but she quickly dismissed this thought.
Judging from the previous attitude of the Seventh Summoner, he clearly didn’t want others to know about the occurrences in the Demon Beast Forest, let alone informing other main summoners.
Moreover, the Volcanic Lake is one of the Summoning Court’s forbidden areas, with few knowing that its bottom connects directly to the Penglai Sea.
Therefore, this main summoner was definitely not here for the cause of death of the demon beasts in the Demon Beast Forest.
His reason for coming underwater is likely related to the seal beneath the sea.
Yun Sheng’s guess was quickly verified by the subsequent actions of that main summoner, who headed straight for the Volcanic Seal at the seafloor.
From the gills of the Shark-man, transparent bubbles erged, and at a distance of about five hundred ters from the Magic Array, he began chanting.
As he chanted, waves surged from all directions, with abundant Water Power forming a Magic Array.
The ice-blue Frozen Magic glowed like teors in the dark night, shimring with a cold light, and eight ice peak tridents, nearly one ter high, appeared in the sea.
A hint of ferocity glinted in the narrow fish eyes of the Shark-man.
He waved his arm, exuding an incredible aura like a General commanding thousands of troops.
The eight ice peak tridents shot forcefully towards the northeast, northwest, southwest, southeast, north, south, east, and west corners of the Volcanic Seal.
Yun Sheng wasn’t well-versed in Magic Arrays, but using Shennong’s Eyes, she could see that the Shark-man’s chosen eight positions were astutely selected, pinpointing the weakest spots of Magic Power within the entire Magic Array.
Once these eight positions were hit, they would resemble the body’s major acupoints, severely impeding the concentration of Magic Power, eventually affecting the entire Volcanic Seal.
At that mont, eight tridents had already sunk into the Magic Array.
The dark red Magic Array emitted a blood-like red glow from the magic runes within.
Imdiately, a terrifying roar akin to a beast’s growl erupted from the Magic Array.
Within the otherwise calm Magic Array, a strange change occurred, as if it was a boiling pot of magma, glowing bright red.
From the magma, an angry expression resembling a human face appeared indistinctly.
"Despicable Fishman, it’s you again! Soday, I’ll slay you!"
The angry face within the Magic Array roared at the Shark-man.
After striking successfully, the Shark-man’s mouth grinned, showing a sinister smile.
Without lingering further, he swiftly executed his movent technique, reverting to the Trident Shark form, and swam rapidly towards the ocean surface.
The Lava Wrath face watched helplessly as the Shark-man fled again, fuming with rage.
The exchange between the Lava Wrath face in the Magic Array and the Shark-man showed their longstanding animosity.
Yun Sheng observed the scene clearly from the side.
Just as the Lava Wrath face began to fade, preparing to resu slumber, it sharply sensed two unfamiliar auras.
These two auras actually emanated from a seemingly ordinary deep-sea Anemone nearby.
"Who dares to disturb the Molten Rock Venerable’s sweet dreams?" After being hassled repeatedly in one day, the Lava Wrath face was infuriated.
Unlike the Shark-man, the true form of Lava Wrath was the Guardian Beast safeguarding the Volcanic Seal, molten with volcanic lava energy, transforming into the Molten Fire Venerable, as ntioned earlier by Ji Ru Mo and Yun Sheng.
It had guarded this deep-sea area for thousands of years, familiar with every leaf, stone, or grain of sand here.
This unfamiliar aura had never been detected before, clearly marking them as external intruders, just like the Shark-man.
Anyone approaching the Volcanic Seal must be slain!
From within the Magic Array, a mixture of lava surged out, forming into a lava fire hand aiming to seize the Anemone King.
The sea quickly transford into heat waves in its wake, ready to roast anyone into re dried at if approached.
Fortunately, Yun Sheng possessed the Elf Karma Fire, making her unfazed by such high temperatures.
The Anemone King’s hundreds of tentacles extended and retracted, swiftly darting hundreds of ters, landing where the Shark-man had been earlier.
Yun Sheng had been watching coldly from the side, observing clearly.
The Volcano Guardian Beast seed incapable of leaving the Volcanic Seal; as long as she stayed where the Shark-man was, she wouldn’t fear attacks.
Indeed, the pair of lava giant hands could no longer advance.
This feeling of helplessly watching without being able to kill intruders was unbearable, akin to discovering a botherso mosquito buzzing around disturbing deep slumbers on a sumr’s night.
Yun Sheng’s action completely enraged the guardian within the Volcanic Seal.
Inside the Magic Array, a flash of red light surged up instantly.
A towering lava giant, as tall as a small mountain, appeared within the Magic Array, standing over ten ters high.
Yun Sheng now saw the true form of the guardian of the Volcanic Seal.
It was towering like a modern Transforr, with each muscle composed of glowing hot lava rock masses, and its blood veins flowing like bubbling lava, its eyes, nose, mouth emitting scorching red light.
"Foolish intruder, quickly leave the Volcanic Seal, or you’ll have none to bla when I show no rcy!" the Molten Fire Venerable roared.
