Chapter 399

– Sea King Pursuit
Zhong Yue ordered the dragons and sea races around him to leave them alone, and he quickly said,
Brother Fenglou, I need to borrow the Pan Dragon Sword for a moment!

Ao Fenglou then shouted in shock,
The Pan Dragon Sword? The sword is the saint weapon of the dragon race. I can’t make a decision like that without going through the proper channels….

Zhong Yue then took out the token given to him by Ao Fenglou and said,
I will return this token to you right now. The Zhong Li Celestial Race has already activated the Eight Dragon Heaven Suppression Cauldron. They will definitely head towards the Great Wilderness to exterminate the Swords Gate. This was brought upon us because we destroyed the portal that the Zhong Li Celestial Race created for the Kun Peng Celestial Race! If they descended at the Ancestral Star, the dragons will not be able to stay outside of the chaos! Now, I need your help, Brother Fenglou. I need you to head towards the Great Wilderness with the Pan Long Sword.


Is that so…,
said Ao Fenglou as he started thinking about what Zhong Yue said. Long ago, the dragons and the Kun Peng were already on bad terms; the entire Kun Peng Celestial Race was exiled to the Wood Celestial Star by the dragons, and after destroying the portal, the Swords Gate was now targeted by the Zhong Li Celestial Race. Thus, it was only reasonable for the dragons must provide aid to the Swords Gate.
However, deep down, Ao Fenglou knew that the dragons would not assist Swords Gate at all.
The five dragons were all prideful beings; they considered humans as an inferior species to them, and even after knowing that the humans destroyed the portal, they certainly wouldn’t bother to show any gratitude.
On top of that, the dragon elder would definitely not approve or even listen to a request that came from Zhong Yue.
And when Zhong Yue split apart the entire Fiery Capital with the Divine Wing Saber, the dragon elder even got angry as in their minds, Zhong Yue had stolen the sword from them.
After a moment of consideration, Ao Fenglou suddenly said,
Alright! Give me back my token, and I will be there with the Pan Long Sword! The elders of my clans are all short-sighted people, and they would probably disapprove, but I have my own ways of taking the sword away without drawing any attention! Also, could you please explain to me why the Divine Wing Saber is in your hands? We dragons are investigating this matter right now.


I robbed it from the Kun Peng Celestial Race.

Zhong Yue was relieved at Ao Fenglou’s cooperation, and he continued,
When the magnate Qi Practitioner from the Kun Peng Celestial Race was injured by the Pan Long Sword, I coincidentally had a Golden Peng Sword. Through the sword, I managed to locate the Divine Wing Saber, and when I got there, the sword was already split in two. I had one half of it while the Kun Peng Celestial Race had the other half.

With a nod, Ao Fenglou said,
I am not interested in the Divine Wing Saber, but you must be careful of the other dragons. They would probably demand you to give them the sword and when that happens….

He hesitated and said,
I hope that you will still remember our friendship and not go too hard on them.


Alright. Brother Fenglou, please depart to the Great Wilderness as soon as possible!

Then, Ao Fenglou’s face on the totem pillar faded.
Zhong Yue then left the place and said to a dragon soldier,
Senior martial brother, I am going to head towards the Great Wilderness with these two from Bai Zhe Clan. Are there any spare ships that we can borrow?


A moment please.

Not long later, an enormous sea creature emerged with a ship attached to its back – the ship was built directly on its back.
When the three of them boarded this peculiar ship, the sea creature immediately started slithering in the sea while a huge air bubble surrounded the ship so that the water would not leak into it. Instead of feeling suffocated, they felt extremely comfortable and warm in the ship as they headed towards their destination at high speed.

This is the Whale Emperor Ship, a type of ship that was only provided to the nobles of the dragon race.


I’ve never thought that you’d be treated as a noble by them. It seems like you have quite a high position among the dragons,
praised Bai Canghai.
Bai Zhenbei, however, smirked and said,
But to have this type of treatment, you first have the requisite strength. With no strength, no one will bother to pay attention to you. Canghai, I’ve never boarded a ship like this when I followed you to the Eastern Sea last time, you have to be more hardworking so that in one day, I will be able to get a ship like this as easily as Brother Yue can.

The now puzzled Bai Canghai then asked,
Teacher, it was me that was following you to the Eastern Sea. And it was also because you were not strong enough to board the Whale Emperor Ship that we are piggybacking off of Brother Zhong Yue. Why are you blaming this on me?

Enraged, Bai Zhenbei smacked Bai Canghai again.
Meanwhile, Clan Master Xia and Zhurong Yanqin continued looking for Zhong Yue in the South Barren. However, in spite of the mighty Zhong Li Celestial Race and the thoroughness with which they locked down their territory, they still were not able to locate Zhong Yue.
Clan Master Xia’s face cycled through a series of awful expressions, and one day, Zhurong Yanqin suddenly murmured,
Strange…


Darling, what’s wrong?
asked Clan Master Xia.

I just saw the Chief Di of the monsters passing through the border on his ship, and there was someone that looked like Long Yue on the ship. I think he is with Bai Zhenbei? They said something about going to Eastern Sea because Long Yue wanted to learn something from the dragons to beat Zhong Yue in the future. I’m sure about this but why did he turn back?

At first, Clan Master Xia did not take his wife’s words seriously, then he simply replied,
He probably decided to inform Shi Buyi first… Wait!

His expression changed, and he quickly dashed away immediately while Zhurong Yanqin followed behind him as she asked,
What’s wrong?


That Long Yue with Bai Zhenbei is Zhong Yue!
said Clan Master Xia with frustration.
He then said again,
This brat! How did he manage to fool me! There can’t be two Long Yue’s, one of them must be a fake! The one with Chief Di is the real one because if he is the fake, then there is no way the monsters don’t sense it! Thus, the one with Bai Zhenbei is the fake one!

When they rushed to the borders, their heart tightened when the guards reported that Long Yue had already left quite some time ago with Bai Zhenbei and Bai Canghai.
Clan Master Xia stood there for quite a moment without saying anything, and after a moment, he slowly said with a terrifyingly calm tone,
Yanqin, summon Zhongjin and Zhongguang. Don’t forget the Sea King as well. The Eastern Sea was once the Sea King’s territory. He is definitely very familiar with that area.

Zhurong Yanqin then said nervously,
But the Eastern Sea is the dragons’ territory….


Since when is our Zhong Li Celestial Race are afraid of the dragons!
Her husband replied.
He then said again,
Have them head towards the Eastern Sea and bring me Zhong Yue’s head! Darling, you and I will raise an army, and we will trample the Swords Gate and mow them down with overwhelming force!


The humans have been living in peace within the Great Wilderness for way too long, and our Zhong Li Celestial Race has laid low for too long. It is now time for us to show the world our fangs, and we will start with Swords Gate!

Zhurong Yanqin nodded, and after his words were passed to Xia Zhongjin and Xia Zhongguang, the two of them invited Sha Qishan, the Sea King, to pursue Zhong Yue together with them. At the same time, the Zhong Li Celestial Race’s armies were mobilized, and they marched towards the Great Wilderness.

What a cunning Zhong Yue!

Not long later, the three of them arrived at the border. Sha Qishan, who was severely injured by Zhong Yue, looked extremely pale. He laughed as he said,
My tracking skill is one of the best in the sea, and I have descendants all over the sea. As long as he is still in the water, Zhong Yue will not be able to escape from us, but the Eastern Sea’s dragons are not to be underestimated. Any bright ideas?

Xia Zhongjin replied,
We have the technique, passed down from generation to generation, that is specially created for the dragons, so what are we afraid of? We can just enter the Eastern Sea and if they appeared, let’s see if they dare to provoke us!

On the other hand, Xia Zhongguang was more cautious suggested,
It is best if we do not attract their attention, after all, we only have three people. Mr. Sha will continue to track Zhong Yue’s location through his scent while we will get ready to support you on top of the sea. If we run into any dragons, we should just avoid them.

Sha Qishan then jumped into the water and let out a loud scream that could only be heard only at a certain frequency. This drew the attention of the countless sharks living in the sea, and they all started swimming everywhere while sniffing around frenziedly.

The Divine Wing Saber is in Zhong Yue’s hands … No wonder the Kun Peng Celestial Race wanted me to kill him, so Zhong Yue and Long Yue are the same person! Why should I return the sword back to them after I take it from Zhong Yue, it’s better if I just take it for myself… Found you!

Sha Qishan then quickly contacted Xia Zhongjin and Xia Zhongguang as he swam towards the Northern Sea quickly.
On the Whale Emperor Ship, Zhong Yue calmed himself down, and he received news from Qiu Jin’er that Jun Sixie had ordered the disciples of Swords Gate to seek aid everywhere, and that Shui Zian’s tokens were all used up.
In order to fend off the Zhong Li Celestial Race’s saint weapon, the Eight Dragons Heaven Suppression Cauldron, Jun Sixie also set up a large-scale array formed with a series of arrays that was being handled by the experts of Swords Gate.
Zhong Yue then thought, The major threat this time is not from the South Barren but the West and East Barren. But we should be able to hold them off after I invited Ao Fenglou to come here with the Coiling Dragon Sword. If Swords Gate manages to get past this crisis, then we will no longer be a small tribe anymore. Through my other identity as Long Yue, I told the world that there are some weaknesses in my inner core, which is true. There is indeed something wrong with my state of [Celestial Demon as One], and that is that it is fake. There is still quite a bit of distance between here and the North Barren. It is time for me to take this chance to evolve my inner core into the Celestial Demon Tai Chi Inner Core.
He then started cultivating as his inner core flew out, and he hurled it into the【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】to reforge and refine it after having transformed into the Fu Xi true form.
Behind Zhong Yue’s head, along with the Bloodline Secret Realm, the other Yuan Shen secret realms opened up. And as Zhong Yue’s blood boiled, totem carvings and bloodline power seeped into the inner core and formed the Yin and Yang. The celestial and demons before draconic carvings were then formed afterward.
Bai Zhenbei and Bai Canghai stood at the side as they silently watched Zhong Yue. Suddenly, Bai Zhenbei had a shock, and when he looked outside, he realized that countless sharks had appeared around the ship.
They circled around the ship, and the numbers of sharks was still increasing as time passed!

This is… Oh no!

Just when Bai Zhenbei was about to kill the sharks, the sharks suddenly gathered around and charged towards the Whale Emperor.
In just an instant, the Whale Emperor’s flesh was devoured by the sharks, and what remained was just a colossal skeleton while the Whale Emperor Ship on the skeleton started to sink towards the bottom of the sea.

Sha Qishan!
shouted Bai Zhenbei as he stood up.
