As Ye Zhen and the Great Sage of the Overturning Sea successively made their Divine Soul Oaths, a drop of golden Spirit Light was rapidly flying above the vast expanse of the Outer Domain Dead Sea, while the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, leisurely but persistently pursued on his Two-horned Silver Jiao.
Though his speed seed relaxed, Jie Tianhe’s face was filled with urgency.
It’s been over seven days, nearly eight.
Because he sensed the Origin Aura from the seventeen Black Dragon Banners taken by Ye Zhen, he utilized the Innate Essence Blood Tracing Technique to quickly track down, intending to capture his fate’s enemy and fully complete his Martial Arts with the entire Black Dragon Legacy.
However, as the pursuit continued, Jie Tianhe began to sense ominous premonitions.
The problem was, in his perception, the Origin Aura of those seventeen Black Dragon Banners was still concentrated together, and they were constantly on the move at high speed, possibly being carried by his fate’s enemy as they fled.
He could sense that he was getting closer to those seventeen Black Dragon Banners.
Strangely enough, he couldn’t sense the Black Dragon Aura in his fate’s enemy!
This left him questioning if he had been deceived or was perhaps tracking the wrong target.
Yet he continued the chase regardless.
Perhaps his fate’s enemy used so Secret Technique to evade his senses?
Or, if he abandoned this only clue, where would he search in the vast Outer Domain Dead Sea?
Moreover, this Innate Essence Blood Tracing Technique, using a drop of Origin Essence Blood, can only last a day and night. Over these seven or eight days, he had consud seven drops of Origin Essence Blood, almost half a mouthful of it.
This made him unwilling and impossible to give up halfway!
Thus, despite recurring doubts, Jie Tianhe continued his pursuit!
The night passed, and as the morning sun rose, the golden blood droplet fleeing ahead had beco extrely dull, on the verge of dissipating.
With a thought, Jie Tianhe forced out another drop of golden Origin Essence Blood from between his fingers. With a flick, mysterious and intricate lines imprinted onto the drop of Origin Essence Blood.
With a whistling sound, this drop of Origin Essence Blood flew out again, rushing into the depths of the vast sea, as Jie Tianhe hurriedly urged his Two-horned Silver Jiao to follow.
"Based on my current senses, I should be able to catch up by this afternoon!" At this thought, the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, suddenly felt a surge of excitent.
He had waited for this day for hundreds of years. Perhaps today, his long-cherished wish would be fulfilled!
As ti ticked by, Jie Tianhe’s expression grew increasingly grave, feeling closer and closer to the aura of those seventeen Black Dragon Banners.
Suddenly, Jie Tianhe leapt off his Two-horned Silver Jiao, gracefully diving into the sea like a fish. As he entered the water, a dense black water aura rose around him, and the phantom of a Black Dragon appeared around Jie Tianhe.
As the Black Dragon phantom surfaced, a Black Dragon Claw imprint swiftly extended into the depths of the sea.
A massive sea lion over five hundred ters long was caught right by the Black Dragon Claw imprint.
In the next mont, Dragon King Jie Tianhe, who had just entered the sea, burst out of the water with the massive sea lion, his expression as gloomy as water!
In a flash of Spirit Light, the giant sea lion, already limp like mud, was imdiately gutted by Dragon King Jie Tianhe. In the next instant, seventeen stacked Black Dragon Banners appeared before Jie Tianhe!
Jie Tianhe’s face suddenly turned crimson as blood, his chest heaving violently, his throat bobbing up and down, almost spurting blood on the spot!
"How dare you mock , seeking death!" Jie Tianhe roared in fury!
At the sight of the Black Dragon Banners, Jie Tianhe knew he had been deceived, mocked!
He had fallen into his fate’s enemy’s diversionary tactic!
As for the possibility that his fate’s enemy was eaten by a sea monster, that was absolutely impossible!
The sea monsters could possibly consu any other martial artist, even those at Peak Ninth Stage Establishnt or Dao Entrance Realm, but they could never harm him or his fate’s enemy.
In front of the Spirit Wisdom-lacking sea monsters, the genuine Black Dragon Martial ridians aura, once released, would render them powerless, available for slaughter, let alone eat them!
Understanding this, the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, was filled with a furious madness!
The aura around him beca impossibly violent, with streaks of black aura swirling around him like swimming dragons, instantly perating a radius of about ten miles.
In the next instant, the sea within about ten miles of Jie Tianhe boiled like a cauldron, with waves towering up to a hundred ters high rising from the sea!
Simultaneously, countless sea beast carcasses floated up from the sea depths.
Under Jie Tianhe’s wrath, all sea Monster Beasts within a ten-mile radius perished, regardless of their Cultivation level!
Yet even so, Jie Tianhe still felt an unventable frustration in his heart, stuck in his chest, so distressed he felt like spitting blood!
Eight days wasted, nearly eight days on a beast, and nearly half a mouthful of precious Innate Primordial Blood expended!
The most critical was the ti—how far he had flown in these eight days, he was unsure, but returning would surely require over six days of all-out flight!
Both ways, nearly half a month!
```
He was directly diverted by his fate’s enemy for nearly half a month, and by the ti he returned to strike again, heaven knows where his fate’s enemy has hidden!
The extent of the loss this ti, just how serious it is, is probably known only to the Dragon King Jie Tianhe himself.
Calming his emotions, as he stood above the sea, Dragon King Jie Tianhe suddenly felt a bit at a loss.
Played by his opponent like this, perhaps he is too far away, or maybe his fate’s enemy is well hidden, he could no longer sense the slightest bit of his adversary’s aura.
At this mont, he unexpectedly didn’t know in which direction to pursue!
Although their Dragon Alliance claims dominance over the Outer Domain Dead Sea, with Nine Domain Dragon Kings overseeing the nine great seas, it still cannot fully control the Outer Domain Sea.
Not to ntion full control, it might not even manage two or three tenths of it.
Mainly because the Outer Domain Dead Sea is too vast, terrifyingly vast!
"I wonder if anyone else has found any traces?"
With this thought, the dragon-shaped storage ring on Dragon King Jie Tianhe’s finger suddenly flashed with brilliance, and a one-ter-square array plate was taken out, appearing in front of him.
This is a Small Movent Formation Plate he carries with him, used to communicate with the Dragon Alliance headquarters while outside. It can send an item to any place in the Outer Domain Dead Sea within an hour.
However, it is limited to items of a relatively small size, such as letters, Spirit Crystals, Pills, etc. Once the item to be transmitted exceeds half a ter in size, the plate will be unable to bear it and will crack.
Moreover, using this Small Movent Formation has a prerequisite: it must be paired by an Array Master, and both Small Movent Formations must be activated simultaneously to be used!
Of course, for convenience in contacting him, the Dragon Alliance Leader, the Small Movent Formation Plate at the Dragon Alliance headquarters operates daily at the cost of consuming a large amount of Spirit Crystals.
This way, when needed, he can contact the headquarters at any ti.
Originally, under normal circumstances, no matter how busy he was, Jie Tianhe would send a Jade Scroll through the Small Movent Formation every two days to keep in touch with the Dragon Alliance headquarters.
If there were matters requiring urgent attention, the Dragon Alliance headquarters would also send a Jade Scroll to let him handle it!
However, over these past eight days, due to employing the Innate Essence Blood Tracing Technique to track the Origin Aura he left while refining the Black Dragon Banner, he hadn’t rested at all and hadn’t contacted the Dragon Alliance headquarters.
Only now, having the ti, did he take this out.
Taking out thirty-six Supre Spirit Crystals, he carefully embedded them onto the array plate, then Jie Tianhe activated the plate, sending over an inquiry Jade Scroll.
The mont the Jade Scroll disappeared, the thirty-six Supre Spirit Crystals imdiately crumbled into powder. Following that, Jie Tianhe quickly replaced them with another thirty-six Supre Spirit Crystals.
Thirty-six Supre Spirit Crystals an three hundred sixty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, and in the transmission state, it can only keep the plate sustainably open for two hours, allowing only one transmission.
This level of consumption is affordable only for a major power like the Dragon Alliance.
Although the transmission is fast, this kind of transmission also requires ti.
About half an hour later, the light on the Small Movent Formation Plate began to tremble violently again, as if it was bearing an unbearable weight.
A few breaths later, a Jade Scroll with a sealed mark appeared at the center of the Small Movent Formation Plate.
Upon opening the Jade Scroll, Jie Tianhe’s Divine Sense imdiately imrsed itself in it.
The instant his Divine Sense dove in, Jie Tianhe’s expression changed dramatically once again!
"What, another twelve White Dragon Envoys have disappeared, ten out of ten have probably been killed...."
"The Thunderbolt Dragon King..... the Thunder Saint has also been missing for over eight days, with various Secret Techniques failing to establish contact, and the six White Dragon Envoys by his side are also among the missing!"
Holding the Jade Scroll, Jie Tianhe’s right hand involuntarily trembled.
The deaths of the White Dragon Envoys, even though over half of the seventy-two White Dragon Envoys had already perished, he could still accept it.
But the disappearance of the Thunderbolt Dragon King, unable to contact him through any Secret Technique, that probably ant the Thunderbolt Dragon King might have fallen.
Under Jie Tianhe’s leadership, nine Domain Dragon Kings assist him in governing the nine great seas, each Dragon King is a figure of imnse renown and unmatched combat power.
The fall of one Dragon King would be unprecedented for the Dragon Alliance in hundreds of years.
As the leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe well understood the impact and damage to the Dragon Alliance’s prestige from the fall of a Dragon King!
Sadly, Jie Tianhe was still unaware that the Golden Rainbow Dragon King had also been slain by Ye Zhen. If he knew, he’d probably spit blood on the spot!
"The Dragon Alliance has confird that the last place the Thunderbolt Dragon King was seen was in the sea region a thousand miles east of Heavenly Wing Island. At that ti, the Sky Wing Three Saints were conducting a massive sacrificial ritual, and many saw the appearance of the Thunderbolt Dragon King. Currently, an intensive investigation is underway!"
Seeing the last part of the ssage in the Jade Scroll, the eyes of the Dragon Alliance leader, Jie Tianhe, suddenly turned extrely sharp.
"Sky Wing Three Saints, if it truly was your handiwork, then don’t bla this old man for being rciless...."
Before the sound of his voice faded, Jie Tianhe imdiately urged the two-horned silver jiao beneath him, transforming into a silver light in the void, swiftly heading towards the east where Heavenly Wing Island is located.
