Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish …
Above the boundless black ocean, a large number of lights rapidly approached.
While Ye Chen was plundering the black powers on the fourth devouring island, Blackwater Alliance had already dispatched experts in Ye Chen's direction. Since the distance between the islands wasn't too close, only after Ye Chen had swept through the fourth devouring island did the Blackwater Alliance's experts arrive at the fourth devouring island.
"Damn, these two don't put my Blackwater Alliance in their eyes at all."
Seeing the destruction in front of them, a half-step King beside Sima Zonguan squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice.
Sima Zonguan said, "In the past few decades, it's not like there hasn't been someone challenging our Blackwater Alliance's rule. However, not a single one has succeeded."
"Zonguan, these two certainly know that the devouring islands are under our Blackwater Alliance's rule. Since they dared to do this, they might have some tricks up their sleeves. Don't be careless." Another skinny old man warned Sima Zonguan.
Sima Zonguan nodded, "I know. Even a lion uses its full strength to capture a rabbit. Don't hold back."
"Yes!"
The Blackwater Alliance's experts roared in unison.
…
On the black ocean between the fourth and fifth devouring islands, Ye Chen suddenly stopped and said indifferently, "They're here!"
"This Blackwater Alliance seems to attach great importance to us. They've dispatched all half-step Kings." Murong Qingcheng also noticed the lights in the distance.
Ye Chen said, "Peak Masters won't be of any use. I presume Blackwater Alliance knows this as well."
A small group of top master level warriors could kill normal half step king warriors and compete with the top warriors among them. But, facing a top half step king warrior, it would be useless. Plus, Ye Chen had defeated the Explosive fire king, which meant that he was one of the top warriors among the top half step king warriors.
Dozens of lights flew over and stopped a few li away from Ye Chen.
"State your names!"
A half-step King roared.
"You must be the experts of the Blackwater Alliance. What can I do for you?" Ye Chen asked.
Sima Zonguan frowned, "This Devouring Island is under the rule of my Blackwater Alliance. You ignored the rules here and robbed the zhen yuan crystals. Why do you think we're looking for you?"
"Under your rule?" Ye Chen pretended to be surprised. "I really didn't know that."
"Kid, don't be arrogant. If you surrender now, we can still spare your life." Some fiery half-step Kings couldn't bear Ye Chen's tone and roared.
Ye Chen smiled, "I only know that the devouring island is ruled by the holy spirit. Your Blackwater Alliance has fooled the holy spirit and made the people here work for you. Those dark powers are all blood sucking worms, sucking the blood of the people here. I am doing justice for the heavens by robbing their Zhen yuan crystals."
"Doing justice for the heavens, huh? However, you should also know that the weak are prey to the strong. This is one of the unchanging heavenly laws." Sima Zonguan was expressionless.
"That's right. The weak are prey to the strong. That will never change. Wherever there are people, there will be conflicts and fights. Between me and you, there is no right or wrong relationship. There is only the strong preying on the weak." Rules were just an excuse. The strong preying on the weak was the true meaning.
"Well said. Very few people can see through things so thoroughly." Sima Zonguan shook his head, "However, you're very stupid. You shouldn't have challenged my Blackwater Alliance. Go!"
Sima Zonguan waved his hand, and dozens of half-step Kings behind him pounced forward.
The first to attack was a middle-aged fiendish man with withered yellow hair. His palms were like two large palm-leaf fans as he chopped toward Ye Chen. Following this palm strike, a huge palm imprint appeared on the surface of the black ocean, and a boundless Qi energy pressed down like an iron mountain.
Following closely behind was a skinny old man beside Sima Zonguan. He sucked in a deep breath, and the surrounding air was suddenly sucked out. As for himself, he turned from skinny to fat, and his face became round like an inflated balloon. With a thunderous roar, he punched out. The violent fist energy raised a huge wave on the black ocean, looking incomparably frightening.
At the same time, fiery energy, overlapping phantoms, dazzling golden blade Qi, and indomitable spear light attacked like a torrential storm, not giving Ye Chen the slightest space to dodge.
"Scram!"
Ye Chen pulled out the Thunder Calamity Sword, and instead of retreating, he charged forward to meet them. He first sent the yellow-haired fiendish man flying with Golden Ripple, causing the latter to spurt out a few mouthfuls of blood. Then, he thrust his sword at the fat old man. The sharp sword Qi cut the latter's arm, leaving a bloody wound. Ye Chen then pointed his left index finger at the air, breaking the fiery energy and heavily attacking the opponent. This series of actions was completed in a flash. As for the overlapping phantoms, they all brushed past him, unable to injure him in the slightest. The dazzling golden blade Qi was also cut off by his finger, greatly reducing its might.
Murong Qingcheng wasn't idle either. Her opponent was a spear wielding half-step King. The two were exchanging blows at high speed, turning into countless afterimages. Only pitch-black arcs of light and spear lights could be seen clashing in the void.
"This kid's too strong!"
The fiendish middle-aged fiendish man, who had been sent flying, stabilized his body. He discovered that his internal organs had suffered a certain degree of injury, and his battle power had been reduced. This was still because the opponent was fighting one against many, and couldn't bring out his offensive power to its peak. Otherwise, his injuries would have been ten times worse.
"My Empyrean Battle Body has been broken?"
The old man recovered his skinny appearance and was incomparably shocked.
After a series of exchanges, more than half of the dozen half-step Kings attacking Ye Chen had suffered varying degrees of injuries. Although the remaining few weren't injured, their attacks were also ineffective.
"Nine Swords at the Same Time!"
Suddenly, Ye Chen's left hand moved, and a sword flew out from the scabbard on his waist. This was a semi extreme grade sword, one of the semi extreme grade swords Ye Chen had obtained from Sky Scorpio King's sword tomb. Its might was even above that of the Thunder Disaster Sword, and two words were carved on the sword's body.
In the past, Ye Chen had never used a semi extreme grade sword. Firstly, there was no need, and secondly, it was to conceal the sharpness of the Sword Control Art. Afterwards, Ye Chen's various profounds had greatly improved, and the Sword Control Art's Sword Control Art had suddenly weakened a lot. It couldn't compare to Ye Chen's major profounds.
But now, Ye Chen's Sword Control Art had made a lot of progress. From five swords simultaneously, it had become nine swords simultaneously. Adding the fact that the sword he was controlling was a semi extreme grade sword, the offensive power of the Sword Control Art was no weaker than Gold Ripple, second only to Waning Moon.
Chi Chi Chi Chi …
Nine sword shadows shot out, and nine half-step Kings were sent flying while spurting out blood. A deep cut appeared on their chest armor.
"Sword Control Art!"
Sima Zonguan had been observing Ye Chen's strength the entire time. As long as he could figure out the opponent's strength, he would immediately use his killing move to kill him. Seeing the nine sword shadows, he couldn't help but blurt out. Be it on True Spirit Continent or in the deep ocean, this Sword Control Art was a lost sword art. He didn't expect to see this legendary sword art in Ye Chen's hands.
Of the dozen half-step Kings, nine were heavily injured, and the remaining few weren't in a good state either. On the other hand, Ye Chen's aura was calm, and he seemed to know when to advance or retreat.
"Back off!"
Sima Zonguan's face was gloomy. The half-step Kings he had brought with him were all experts among half-step Kings. He hadn't expected that they wouldn't last more than a few moves against Ye Chen. If he had known this earlier, he would have joined the battle from the very beginning, not giving Ye Chen the opportunity to injure them. This way, Ye Chen's advantage wouldn't be so great.
A long staff appeared in his hand. With a stern roar, Sima Zonguan waved the staff. The shining staff shadow was like a star, like a myriad of rays, and like a silver river pouring down, violently attacking Ye Chen.
"Eh? This staff is strange. "
Ye Chen exclaimed in surprise and raised his sword in front of him.
Clang!
Amidst the sound of metal clashing, Ye Chen retreated a few steps. The Qi around him surged, and the winds and clouds fluctuated. Faintly, a dragon's howl could be heard.
"Butcher Chop!"
Sima Zongguan swung his staff through the air again. The powerful staff shadow tore open a huge hole in the black sea below. It was unfathomably deep.
Clang!
Ye Chen retreated a few more steps, his blood and Qi fluctuating.
"Worthy of being Sima Zonguan! He's actually suppressing him!"
The experts of Blackwater Alliance, who had retreated far away, revealed joyous expressions.
"This shouldn't be strange. Sima Zonguan has long since become a peak half-step King. Adding the replica Dragon Extermination Staff in his hand, ordinary peak half-step Kings can't even last ten moves against him."
"Dragon Extermination Staff!"
Hearing the words of Blackwater Alliance's expert, Ye Chen seemed to be lost in thought.
"Take another staff strike!"
Sima Zonguan was overbearing. His staff shadows filled the sky, each strike reaping the life.
Just as Blackwater Alliance's expert had said, the staff in Sima Zonguan's hand was a replica of Dragon Extermination Staff. Although Dragon Extermination Staff couldn't compare to a pseudo supreme grade artifact, it was a top-notch existence among semi supreme grade artifacts. Moreover, it had a dragon-slaying property. Although it was called dragon-slaying, it actually had a deeper meaning. According to legends, the vitality of dragons was extremely powerful. Moves that could kill a human of the same level couldn't kill a dragon. Since it could slay a dragon, it was naturally easy to slaughter a human. After all, the vitality of a human was several levels lower than that of a dragon.
"You have Dragon Extermination Staff, and I have Blood Severing Ghost Finger."
Ye Chen raised his left hand's index and middle fingers and slashed at Sima Zonguan.
Rip!
A strand of condensed Qi and blood was obliterated within Sima Zonguan's body.
"What!"
Sima Zonguan was greatly alarmed. He hurriedly raised Dragon Extermination Staff to block Ye Chen's Blood Severing Ghost Finger.
Dragon Extermination Staff and Blood Severing Ghost Finger seemed to have some similarities. The unblockable power of Blood Severing Ghost Finger was actually mostly neutralized by Dragon Extermination Staff, and the remaining power was negligible.
"So that's how it is."
Ye Chen had a rough understanding of Dragon Extermination Staff's effect.
"Dragon Slaying Cut!"
Sima Zonguan was extremely wary of Ye Chen's Blood Severing Ghost Finger. The Zhen Yuan in his body surged, and a large part of it poured into Dragon Extermination Staff before slashing down.
Woo woo woo woo!
The staff's shadow, which dimmed the sun and moon, whistled over, faintly carrying the aura of splitting mountains and rivers.
"Waning Moon!"
Ye Chen raised his sword to meet it, slashing out a black crescent-shaped sword energy. As soon as the sword energy appeared, the sun and moon became even dimmer. Above the black sea, the gravity completely disappeared. Vaguely, it was as if a star that was about to shatter had crashed over, destroying everything.
Rumble!
A semicircle caved in on the black sea, and a water pillar shot up into the sky. On the other side of the water pillar, Sima Zonguan spat out a fountain of blood as he flew out with Dragon Extermination Staff in hand. Eventually, he fell into the black sea and crashed into the seabed, his fate unknown.
