Chapter 1088: Chapter 1074: A Body Full of Treasures
Whish!
Leng Kang’s Low Grade Soul Artifact, the Water Splitting Stinger, blasted forth with a heavy sound explosion from the massive mouth of the Catfish Flood Dragon, akin to a spiraling water dragon, aiming at Ye Zhen five hundred ters away.
This change occurred too swiftly.
Everyone’s expressions beca shocked and unexpected.
Evidently, no one anticipated this scenario, including the Tower Chief Ou Tu of the Stars Tower, who abruptly widened his eyes, seemingly very shocked at how such a situation could occur?
Even the target of this sudden attack—Ye Zhen, was montarily stunned.
Originally, with the Catfish Flood Dragon slain, the tight nerves throughout his body had relaxed sowhat. Even though Ye Zhen was still guarding against Ou Tu and Jie Tianhe, he never expected an attack to co in this form.
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint’s eyes abruptly bulged round, shouting furiously at Ye Zhen, “Be careful!”
In the mont of the roar, Leng Kang’s Low Grade Soul Artifact, the Water Splitting Stinger, was already roaring and spinning toward Ye Zhen’s chest, and in the next instant, it would blast into Ye Zhen’s chest.
In a flash, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint panicked. Everything was happening too fast for him to offer any aid.
If it were anyone else, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint wouldn’t be so anxious.
The cultivation of others is clear: even an unprepared hit from Leng Kang’s Low Grade Soul Artifact wouldn’t threaten their lives.
They might be severely injured at most, but it would not be fatal.
But Ye Zhen is different.
Ye Zhen only has the Peak of the Sixth Stage of the Vein Forging Realm cultivation. Although his combat power can contend against a late-stage King in the Establishnt Realm under certain circumstances, he is essentially high attack, fragile defense.
An ordinary attack, Ye Zhen could perhaps withstand, but a direct hit from the Low Grade Soul Artifact Water Splitting Stinger could effortlessly kill him several tis over.
This is why the Sea-Breaking Great Saint was anxious, wishing he could take Ye Zhen’s place.
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint, being exceptionally experienced, imdiately grasped the crux of the crisis at hand.
It was Leng Kang!
A martial artist’s control over their Spiritual Artifact and Soul Artifact is as adept as using their own arm.
A slight shift of Divine Sense could change its direction, weaken its force, or even halt it completely.
Even with those imnsely powerful Soul Artifacts that can’t be stopped instantaneously, a re stirring of Divine Sense could significantly reduce their attack power.
Thus, in a mont of exclamation, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint’s gaze turned toward the Young Palace Master of Xuanshui Palace, Leng Kang, with an almost knife-like intensity full of warning.
The ti was too short, so all the Sea-Breaking Great Saint managed was to shout “Be careful,” and didn’t have the ti to demand Leng Kang to imdiately control the Water Splitting Stinger.
He could only use his gaze, as if substantial, to pierce and warn Leng Kang.
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint believed that unless Leng Kang was a fool, he would understand his aning at this mont.
Yet, in that instant, Leng Kang indeed acted foolishly.
Staring at the Water Splitting Stinger rushing toward Ye Zhen’s chest, with a face of shock as if stupefied, not only did he not control his Low Grade Soul Artifact Water Splitting Stinger, he even ignored the warning gaze of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint.
Boom!
That Low Grade Soul Thorn, resembling a water dragon, in that split second, shrieked as it struck Ye Zhen’s chest.
“Third Brother!”
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint roared but did not dash toward Ye Zhen; instead, he furiously charged at Leng Kang, Young Palace Master of Xuanshui Palace.
Because the Sea-Breaking Great Saint understood very well, if the Water Splitting Stinger truly struck, Ye Zhen was dood. In such a sudden scenario, Ye Zhen’s defensive thods could do nothing against this seemingly accidental yet intentional strike.
“Leng Kang, you’re courting death!”
Countless strands of black light fiercely lashed toward Leng Kang, terrifying him to the point his face turned deathly pale.
Whoosh!
A pale golden blade light, seemingly like a rainbow beneath the sea, flashed by, instantly rendering the black beams of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint’s attack into powder as they swept over!
“Sea-Breaking, Zhenhai’s just had so bad luck. No one intended what happened just now, and no one wanted to see it…” Suddenly, the Tower Chief Ou Tu of the Stars Tower blocked in front of Leng Kang.
“Bad luck?”
The Sea-Breaking Great Saint’s voice suddenly turned cold, “Another case of bad luck? Every ti it’s just our bad luck? Is it truly bad luck, or is there soone scheming behind the scenes?”
“Very well, the cooperation between you two is truly flawless!” Saying this, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint abruptly sneered, “But, as for us on Heavenly Wing Island, we’ve never acted based on evidence!”
Hundreds and thousands of terrifying black tendrils suddenly erupted from the palm of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, thrashing to seal the surrounding sea region.
“The main body…”
“The one nad Leng, having dared to harm my Fourth Brother, from today onward, our Heavenly Wing Island and your Xuanshui Palace are mortal enemies, fighting until one of us perishes!”
The face of Leng Kang, who stood behind Ou Tu, suddenly turned pale, frightened by the madness of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint.
The golden blade glow in Ou Tu’s hand flashed, and he took another step forward, firmly protecting Leng Kang, shouting sternly, “Sea-Breaking, are you going to disregard the Pill King’s prohibition and fight to the death with this old man?”
“So what? My fourth brother has been severely injured, and you, surna Ou, will not leave this sea region alive this ti!” Sea-Breaking Great Saint was completely mad.
Hundreds of thousands of black tentacles surrounded Ou Tu and Leng Kang, dancing up and down, tightening their expressions to the extre.
Even Ou Tu, facing the true body of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, didn’t dare to be careless, especially in the deep sea where the advantage of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint was magnified exponentially.
Leng Kang was even more terrified, his face pale, never expecting the Sea-Breaking Great Saint to be so unreasonable, clearly an ‘accident,’ yet still targeting him.
Suddenly, Leng Kang’s expression turned into one of joy, pointing at the returning stream of light, he cheered, “Not dead!”
“The Sea Suppression Great Saint isn’t dead, the Sea Suppression Great Saint blocked my Water Splitting Stinger, blocked it!”
It was Leng Kang’s Water Splitting Stinger, shakily returning, obviously having failed to achieve its goal.
Leng Kang’s voice, initially a cheer, turned into an exclamation, and his expression turned extrely ugly.
He didn’t expect, after taking such a risk and setting up this deadly trap with the third Tower Chief of Stars Tower, Ou Tu, that it still failed to take down Ye Zhen.
Not only did they fail in their goal, but also lost the reward from Stars Tower and thoroughly offended Heavenly Wing Island, which was quite unprofitable.
Ou Tu’s expression also beca extrely ugly at this mont, shooting two strange beams of light from his eyes towards the direction of Ye Zhen, trying to see Ye Zhen’s real condition in the muddied and bloody seawater.
At the sa ti, the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, breathed a sigh of relief, then sowhat unsatisfied, glanced at Ou Tu, the third Tower Chief of Stars Tower.
Ou Tu’s expression imdiately beca sowhat embarrassed, showing a few hints of apology.
Jie Tianhe and Ou Tu had a collaboration against Ye Zhen, but their goals were different.
For Stars Tower, as long as Ye Zhen died, it didn’t matter who eliminated him or how it was done.
They just needed Ye Zhen dead for all to be well.
But Jie Tianhe was different, having acquired half of the Black Dragon Legacy with Ye Zhen, he needed to capture Ye Zhen alive to gain the complete legacy.
After capturing Ye Zhen alive and obtaining the other half of the Black Dragon Legacy from his body, Jie Tianhe would then dispose of Ye Zhen.
Moreover, when Jie Tianhe killed Ye Zhen, it had to be done openly, even if it ant skinning him alive on a small island, to best preserve the reputation of the Dragon Alliance.
Not letting Ye Zhen quietly perish in the deep sea.
Hence, Jie Tianhe was blaming Ou Tu, and Ou Tu displayed a hint of apology.
As Ye Zhen’s death this way didn’t align with Jie Tianhe’s interests.
Hearing Leng Kang ntion Ye Zhen being unhard, Sea-Breaking Great Saint initially felt relieved, but then his expression turned colder, pointing a finger at Xuanshui Palace’s Young Palace Master Leng Kang, with a face full of murderous intent, “Don’t think just because my brother is unhard, you are too!
Anyone daring to sche against my brother won’t have a good end! You better keep your eyes open when walking in the future. If the Sky Wing Four Saints show up, better scamper away, otherwise, we’ll beat you whenever we see you and dismantle a part of you each ti!”
Terrified and speechless, Leng Kang watched as the Sea-Breaking Great Saint turned and charged toward where Ye Zhen was.
“Third Brother, I’m fine, don’t worry!”
“However, leave that person with the surna Leng to , anyone who dares to confront will be paid back tenfold a hundredfold!” Ye Zhen’s voice ca from the murky seawater.
“As long as you’re fine!”
Sea-Breaking Great Saint heaved a sigh of relief, watching Ye Zhen erge unscathed from the muddy seawater, his gaze was one of surprise.
Not only Sea-Breaking Great Saint, but even Ou Tu, Jie Tianhe, Yang Ben, Yuh Changkong, and others were extrely surprised to see Ye Zhen unhard.
Nothing else, just the unexpected strike from Leng Kang earlier, with such a sudden assault, not to ntion Ye Zhen, even they would’ve been hit and, at worst, suffered a slight injury.
Yet Ye Zhen appeared unscathed.
Everyone was curious, how did Ye Zhen avoid this fatal blow?
“As long as Ye is alright, Ye’s alright, then this old man is relieved!” Shuili Dan King, silent until now, suddenly spoke.
“What just happened was probably an accident, but such an accident could be prevented, so I urge everyone to be vigilant!”
Shuili Dan King heavily emphasized the word ‘accident’, clearly, he understood the true nature of the event.
It was likely a deliberate collaboration between Ou Tu and Leng Kang against Ye Zhen.
Otherwise, during the incident, Leng Kang needed only a Divine Sense to neutralize the threat to Ye Zhen.
And when Sea-Breaking Great Saint wanted to deal with Leng Kang, Ou Tu was the first to protect Leng Kang, which itself explained the issue.
But under the current cooperative circumstances, it can only be regarded as an accident.
Otherwise, today’s underwater treasure hunt would be a complete bust.
“According to the prior agreent, everything gained from dealing with the Catfish Flood Dragon during this underwater adventure, everything, like this treasure-laden Catfish Flood Dragon, will be distributed according to each person’s contributions!”
Shuili Dan King’s words made everyone’s eyes glow, as this Catfish Flood Dragon was full of treasures.
Not to ntion, the dragon scales with incomplete Dao Patterns were an unparalleled supre defensive treasure! (To be continued.
