Sandwiched between a turtle and a snake, a thought involuntarily arose within Yan Zhaoge's mind.
"What the f * ck, Xuanwu …"
Two vast fist-intents, one tough and one soft, one heavy and one agile, simultaneously converged towards Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge rolled his eyes, his hands behind his back as he stood in mid-air, not moving in the slightest as streams of qi naturally appeared around his body, resembling green clouds.
As the fist-force from the left and right slammed mightily onto the green clouds, they were instantly unable to advance any further as they were even repelled!
On the left, the massive turtle that resembled a small island hovering above the sea's surface suffered an extremely tough and ferocious force as it was directly slammed down into the sea's surface, smashing all the way to the bottom of the sea.
On the right, the massive snake that was thousands of feet long coiled in the air was repelled by the soft force, unable to control its body at all as it was distorted beyond recognition, resembling a mess.
Shocked cries resounded in the surroundings as the silhouettes of the spirit snake and the spirit turtle both dissipated, revealing the figures of two middle-aged men.
Some of their companions had wary looks on their faces, but were immediately stopped by others.
Their leaders emerged from the two groups of people on the left and right, looking towards Yan Zhaoge.
On the left was an old man with white hair and a severe hunchback. Still, just standing there, he emanated the feeling of being incomparably tall.
On the right was a middle-aged woman with a gloomy expression on her face, her eyes flickering with a cold light as they were intelligent beyond compare.
After clearly seeing the appearances of Yan Zhaoge and the Northern Ocean Clone beside him, looks of shock and fear simultaneously appeared on their faces.
The hunchbacked old man cupped his hands, "I never thought that it would be Traceless Cloud Yan. This old man of the Spirit Returning Sect, Lu Feng, greets you."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "How have you been, Chief Lu?"
This old man was the Chief of the Spirit Returning Sect, one of the Vast Ocean World's Seven Pillars of Good, Lu Feng who was known as the Ten Thousand Longevity Old Man. He was ranked sixth amongst the top ten Transcending Mortality experts of the Vast Ocean World.
Back when Water Crystal Palace, the Spirit Returning Sect and Changli Mountain had been on good terms, Yan Zhaoge had even met Lu Feng once when he had temporarily stayed at Changli Mountain.
Yan Zhaoge swivelled his head to look at the middle-aged woman on the other side, "I have not seen this person before. Still, you should be Chief Guan of Green Snake Island?"
Facing Yan Zhaoge, the cold, murderous light within the middle-aged woman's eyes was instantly retracted greatly. She was silent for a moment before she said, "This old lady is Guan Jingqiong. I am very happy to meet the Traceless Cloud Dragon King."
This was the Chief of Green Snake Island of the Six Evil Sects, the 'Green Snake Madame' Guan Jingqiong, ranked even higher than the 'Ten Thousand Longevity Old Man' Lu Feng amongst the top ten Transcending Mortality experts of the Vast Ocean World, being ranked fifth.
While Guan Jingqiong had the appearance of a middle-aged man, it was actually due to a technique that preserved her looks. She was of the same generation as Lu Feng, an Old Devil who had been renowned in the Vast Ocean World for many years.
In the Vast Ocean World, the Spirit Returning Sect and Green Snake Island were famed for being arch-enemies.
The depth of their conflict far surpassed the enmity between Changli Mountain and the Blood Dragon Sect, or between Changli Mountain and the Evil Shifting Sect.
It was somewhat similar to how the Sacred Sun Clan and Jade Sea City had been originally in the Eight Extremities World, or how the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect were irreconcilable enemies in the World beyond Worlds.
Of the Vast Ocean World's two forces of Good and Evil, with the overall situation being relatively stable, it was the Spirit Returning Sect and Green Snake Island that erupted with the most minor conflicts.
Currently, the two sides were clearly in a stalemate.
Having been repelled by Yan Zhaoge's true essence, the two who had just clashed now returned before the bigwigs of their clans. They were the peak figures of the Essence Spirit Martial Grandmasters of their two clans.
It was just that they naturally dared not make a move now as they were as well-behaved as quails.
Still, seeing Yan Zhaoge, after their initial shock, the people of the Spirit Returning Sect all grew greatly excited, while those of Green Snake Island looked like they had lost their parents as their morale plummeted.
Yan Zhaoge looked left and right, ignoring the expressions on both sides as he asked mildly, "Sorry for the disturbance. Still, who can tell this Yan what the current situation in the Vast Ocean World is like?"
Looking at the dimensional passageway entrance behind Yan Zhaoge that was slowly vanishing, while Lu Feng did not reveal anything on his face, his heart surged, "He is indeed not of the Vast Ocean World!"
While it was also possible that Yan Zhaoge had left the Vast Ocean World and gone adventuring in other worlds, Lu Feng still felt that it was more likely that Yan Zhaoge was not of the Vast Ocean World in the first place when he had suddenly appeared in the Vast Ocean World, with no one being able to see through his background and not knowing his origins.
While massive waves surged within his heart that surged to the heavens, Lu Feng still answered without any hesitation, "The Vast Ocean World is currently dominated by Daoists and vanquished by Devils. With us of the forces of Good having greatly suppressed the forces of Evil these past few years, the Vast Ocean World is currently welcoming a rare opportunity."
"In this, we also have to thank you, Mister Yan, for your assistance that year."
Hearing this, Guan Jingqiong emitted a muffled snort, yet did not retort as she just unceasingly drew her subordinates closer to her.
Feng Yunsheng, Ah Hu, Fu Enshu and the others also appeared at this moment, standing beside the Northern Ocean Clone as they listened curiously to Lu Feng's introduction of the situation.
Hearing Lu Feng's introduction, Yan Zhaoge now knew that the current Vast Ocean World had undergone great changes as compared to when he had left it that year.
Also, these changes indeed had something to do with him.
Calculating in terms of time in the Vast Ocean World, eight years had already passed since he had left.
Eight years ago in the Vast Ocean World, the Sacred Artifact, the Nine Dragon Fingers, had been taken away by Yan Zhaoge. Spirit Rhino Island had suffered a heavy blow as two Transcending Mortality experts had perished at Yan Zhaoge's hands.
The Blood Dragon Sect of the Seven Pillars of Good had also been jointly exterminated by experts of the forces of Evil.
Meanwhile, of the Six Evil Sects, the Evil Saint Lin Qiancheng had perished because of Yan Zhaoge while another major sect, the Brilliant Thunder Sect, had been destroyed due to the dragon tomb.
The Chief of the Brilliant Thunder Sect, the 'Crimson Thunder King' Geng Hui and a few other experts, had been slain by Yan Zhaoge in the dragon tomb afterwards, with the Brilliant Thunder Sect having completely dissipated into thin air.
Meanwhile, the number one expert of the Vast Ocean World, the Chief of the Dragon Slayer Sect, the Martial Saint Zhao Zhong, had been heavily injured by Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone in the dragon tomb, having lost an arm and suffering a great blow to his vitality as his strength had plummeted.
On the side of Good, the Chief of Changli Mountain, Gao Tianzhong, had originally been the second of the top ten Transcending Mortality experts beneath Geng Hui, only a step away from Transcending Mortality and entering Sainthood.
Having accompanied Yan Zhaoge into the dragon tomb, Changli Mountain's gains had been much more abundant than those of the other sects.
After leaving the dragon tomb, Gao Tianzhong had returned to cultivate diligently, finally successfully breaking through the final bottleneck and stepping into the Martial Saint realm.
Changli Mountain had also officially become one of the current peak powers of the Vast Ocean World.
Amidst this, the forces of Good flourished as the forces of Evil instantly fell into a complete disadvantage, having been pressured to the point of indescribable misery these past years.
After the Brilliant Thunder Sect, the Evil Shifting Sect whose number one expert had originally been slain by Yan Zhaoge had been decimated as well.
The name of the Six Evil Sects had already completely become history.
Under such circumstances, the Spirit Returning Sect naturally pursued Green Snake Island unceasingly.
While Guan Jingqiong seemed soft and reserved, she was actually unyielding and unyielding. Having really been pushed into a corner by the Spirit Returning Sect recently, she had launched a counterattack, resembling a venomous snake leaving its lair as she had ambushed the Spirit Returning Sect in the Bewildering Maze Sea.
In their confrontation, the Spirit Returning Sect had actually been at a disadvantage due to being caught off guard.
However, with Yan Zhaoge's appearance now, while he had not expressed his stance, the morale of both sides had instantly reversed.
After all, Yan Zhaoge had always been a guest at Changli Mountain which was also of the side of Good along with the Spirit Returning Sect.
As he stood there, even if he did not say a single word, it was like dark clouds enveloping the sky, pressuring down on Guan Jingqiong and the others to the point where they were unable to see a single ray of light at all. (To be continued.)
