Chapter 979

The saber-image slashed down, killing the heavily armored sea demon .

“Boss!” The Dragonblood warriors cheered . As soon as Long Chen joined in, he killed a late eighth rank sea demon .

That sea demon’s defense had been too powerful, with no weak points at all . Once it had charged into the Dragonblood warriors’ midst, it had ruined their formations . Even Gu Yang had been blown back by one of its pincers .

“How can he use the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect’s secret technique?” Elder Sha instantly saw through the origin of Long Chen’s move .

“That’s about enough . Meng Qi, wind things up!” said Long Chen .

Meng Qi nodded and extended her hands . Forming hand seals, she summoned her soul energy .

“Soul Extermination Life Devouring Art!”

A terrifying spiritual fluctuation spread, instantly covering the entire battlefield . The world seemed to come to a stop .

This Soul Extermination Life Devouring Art was something she had used once before in the Immemorial Path . But at that time, she had been using it on fellow humans, and she hadn’t used it to its full power .

This time, she was using it on the berserk and cold-blooded sea demons . She had no misgivings, and she directly used up over half her Spiritual Strength to increase its power and range .

The invisible ripple caused even the people behind Meng Qi to shiver . Wang Mang and the others felt like their souls were within a terrifying spiritual hand . As long as she wished it, their souls would be destroyed .

Now Wang Mang realized how terrifying Meng Qi was . This soul energy was beyond all expectations . Even with the Underworld Soul Magical Armor, he wouldn’t be able to block this attack . Thinking of that, cold sweat covered his back .

Those fierce sea demons stiffened . They lost their ability to think for a short moment .

Meng Qi’s soul art was terrifying, but due to spreading it over such a huge area, its power was scattered . It didn’t have the power to kill such powerful eighth rank sea demons .

“Wind Moon Devours the Heavens!”

Tang Wan-er’s runes circulated, and millions of palm-sized wind blades shot out . This sea of wind blades rapidly spread, releasing ear-piercing sounds that pained people’s eardrums . It felt like millions of needles were stabbing them, and other than the Dragonblood warriors, everyone’s expressions changed .

They had never seen such terrifying wind blades . This sea of wind blades instantly reached the army of sea demons .

Like sharp blades cutting through tofu, the powerful eighth rank sea demons were instantly killed .

Hundreds of eighth rank sea demons were killed by Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er’s combination attack . Countless corpses piled up into a mountain, slowly dropping toward the sea .

Heaven and earth were deathly silent . Only after a breath’s time did Wang Mang and the others hastily order everyone to gather the corpses . Those were money .

Before they sank into the sea, they grabbed as many as they could . This attack was too terrifying . All the sea demons had been killed, and they were able to descend closer to the sea to gather the corpses without worrying about being attacked .

“Hurry . We should leave quickly,” said Elder Sha .

Everyone hastily cleaned up the battlefield, but it was just too big . Some of the senior disciples were too greedy to even toss aside the seventh and sixth rank sea demons .

Elder Sha frowned, but he also felt leaving behind this many sea demon corpses would be a waste . So he simply waited .

“Long Chen, what are you smiling about? Why is your smile so evil?” Tang Wan-er looked at Long Chen .

“Was I smiling?” Long Chen shook his head .

“You might be able to trick others, but you can’t trick me . Speak, what evil plot are you brewing . ” Tang Wan-er glared at Long Chen, raising a fist .

“You’re overthinking it . I don’t have so many evil thoughts . Well, the battlefield’s about cleaned up, so we should return . Don’t you see Elder Sha’s face is starting to darken? Don’t get scolded . ” Long Chen pulled Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er back to the flying boat .

Tang Wan-er understood Long Chen too well . Seeing that smile on his face, she knew he was up to something . But if he refused to say, there was nothing she could do .

There were too many people, so she was too embarrassed to beat him . She sneaked an arm around his waist and viciously pinched him, but she was unable to . This evil fellow had been prepared and had flexed his muscles . Tang Wan-er ground her teeth furiously, but she couldn’t do anything .

“Has everyone gathered?” asked Elder Sha .

“Reporting to Elder, we’ve all come,” answered Wang Mang hastily . Even now, they all felt like they were in a dream . Their gains were too shocking .

If everyone split things evenly, Wang Mang estimated that even if he worked for two centuries as an outer disciple, he wouldn’t be able to gather as much .

Elder Sha nodded and controlled the flying boat . A barrier of light appeared over it, and it sped away .

At this moment, Long Chen extended his arms and wrapped them around Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er’s waists . They both blushed, not expecting Long Chen to be so brazen .

“Scoundrel, release me! There are so many people here!” whispered Tang Wan-er .

“Careful!” Suddenly, Elder Sha’s expression changed .

BOOM!

The flying boat shook intensely and flipped through the air . The people inside smashed against the barrier . Some vomited blood and some even fainted .

“What’s… going on?” Wang Mang and the others were dizzy from the impact .

Only Long Chen had long since been prepared . His feet had been like nails in the ground . Even Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er weren’t affected .

“Long Chen, you…” said Meng Qi .

“I don’t know anything . What just happened?” asked a ‘dumbfounded’ Long Chen .

“Everyone, be careful! It’s a ninth rank sea demon!” shouted Elder Sha .

BOOM!

The flying boat once more flipped . A mile-long tentacle had sent it flying . But this time everyone was prepared and was circulating their spiritual yuan in defense, as well as tightly holding onto the flying boat . But they still felt like their organs were flipping within them .

“Damn, it’s even more amazing than I had thought,“ Long Chen sighed emotionally inside as he looked at that huge tentacle .

“You scoundrel, as expected, you know all long!” said Tang Wan-er . Being held by Long Chen, most of the force was brunted by him, so she and Meng Qi didn’t feel much . They both realized this was definitely something caused by Long Chen . He had probably known all along that they would draw over a ninth rank sea demon .

“Shh…” Long Chen made a keep quiet gesture, stealthily pointing to Elder Sha .

Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er were speechless . Long Chen was too evil, intentionally causing trouble for Elder Sha . And Elder Sha was truly unlucky to run into an evil person like Long Chen .

Everyone looked at that tentacle with shock . It suddenly curled and wrapped around the flying boat, making it so it couldn’t move . Everyone felt themselves sink .

“Crap, it’s dragging us into the sea!”

Wang Mang and the others were terrified . They hadn’t even seen the form of the ninth rank sea demon . Just its huge tentacle was able to cause so much trouble .

“Brute, are you looking down on me?!” Elder Sha was finally infuriated . Countless runes lit up on the flying boat, and flying swords shot out at the huge tentacle .

That tentacle was sliced apart by countless sharp runic blades . The flying boat escaped its clutch and flew away .

Suddenly, the surface of the water rapidly rose . A colossal figure showed up in front of the boat, blocking even the sun .

“Heavens, what kind of monster is this? How is it so huge?” Everyone was horrified . This sea demon was so huge that even the flying boat looked like a toy in comparison .

Long Chen clearly managed to see it . It was like an octopus, but it didn’t have eight tentacles . Instead, it had hundreds of them . Black, sticky liquid covered its body . It spread its tentacles, blocking the path of the flying boat .

“This is a ninth rank sea demon? What a terrifying aura,” said Guo Ran with shock . Although they were on the flying boat and had a protective formation, the aura of the ninth rank sea demon still caused them to shiver . In front of this ninth rank sea demon, they seemed as miniscule as ants .

“Something this big can be eaten for a long time . ” Wilde was drooling as he looked at the huge sea demon . He had never seen such huge rations .

Wang Mang and the others almost coughed up blood . Was the only thing on his mind food? They were the ones about to be eaten .

“Long Chen, don’t you think this is a bit too much?” said Meng Qi worriedly .

“It’s fine . With Elder Sha present, this ninth rank sea demon should just be the appetizer . ” Long Chen shook his head . He had been relaxed from the start precisely because of his confidence in Elder Sha .

Elder Sha was just about to control the flying boat to retreat when the ninth rank sea demon formed a huge net around them with its tentacles .

Although it was huge, its speed was shockingly fast . Its tentacles instantly bound the flying boat and pulled them toward it .

“Heavens, what a terrifying mouth!” cried Tang Wan-er .

The sea demon had opened its mountain-sized mouth . It was filled with teeth that shone with a sharp, cold light .

“We’re going to be eaten!” Wang Mang felt despair .

“Brute, you’re courting death!” Elder Sha snorted . It was unknown what he did, but the flying boat suddenly trembled . A huge cannon appeared on the prow .

“Die!” shouted Elder Sha . The flying boat shook intensely, and a huge ray of light shot toward the ninth rank sea demon’s mouth .
