In just a flash, the morale of Chen Clan’s caravan was crushed to its extres. Only a few in a panic were able to pull their crossbows and fire towards the sky. Dozens of arrows flew chaotically, appearing powerless.
"Humph! A bunch of ignorant rabble." Zhao Wu Qing practices a cultivation technique known as "Ancient Barbarian Ultra Gold Body Technique". It is a sophisticated body refining technique that his sworn father, Long Wuji, had acquired from who knows where.
It is said to be a refining instruction of a barbarian tribe, consuming heavenly and earthly treasures and food to convert into essence, and consuming essence to pursue the extre body refinent. It is rumored that at the highest level of cultivation, the practitioner’s body expands like a giant, appearing golden-bronze in color, impervious to sharp weapons, and immune to the five elents.
Clearly, Zhao Wu Qing has not yet perfected the Ancient Barbarian Ultra Gold Body Technique. Currently, his body has only slightly expanded, muscled knots building up like iron, appearing coated with a faint golden light.
A few sharp arrows barely grazed him. He was also too lazy to dodge. The arrows clinked like tal hitting stone and were deflected, leaving a faint white mark on his diamond-like muscles.
Subsequently,
Zhao Wu Qing plumted like a teor, crashing onto the flagship of the caravan. The shock wave spread in all directions, throwing the servants and household heads off their feet.
The thick ship’s deck showed a series of cracks, the crisp sound of the ship breaking apart echoed continuously.
Zhao Wu Qing sneered at Chen Xiuwu, his single-eyed scar appearing even more horrifying.
Chen Xiuwu’s legs gave away, and he almost couldn’t stand steadily.
The gap between the two was too vast, as if a mortal had encountered a fierce tiger, with no chance to resist.
The Heavenly Human Realm!
It was unimaginable that the Jiaolong Gang would be so heartless and ruthless, directly deploying a Heavenly Human Realm Great Commander. Could it be, they were prepared to tear up the agreent and go to war without hesitation?
"Boy!"
Zhao Wu Qing took steps towards Chen Xiuwu, with each step, the thick deck creaked. Cracks spread continuously around him. He sneered, "Looking at your outfit and appearance, you must be the Young Clan Leader of the Chen Clan, right? You enjoyed firing that attack, didn’t you?"
"Xiuwu, I’ll hold him off, you should jump off the ship and leave." Chen Fanghua stood in front of him, his face becoming extrely serious.
Disciples of the Chen Clan should always have great swimming skills. Chen Xiuwu had undergone strict training since childhood. If he had a chance to escape into the sea, there was a fair chance he could get away by swimming.
Suddenly!
At this most critical mont, a fierce and heavy aura approached quickly. At the sa ti, a loud shout exploded in the sky, "Jiaolong Gang, you dare to tear up the agreent and attack our Chen Clan convoy."
That voice, that aura!
Chen Fanghua and his nephew were instantly overjoyed, "It’s Old Ancestor Ruhong, he has already broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm."
In recent years, Old Ancestor Ruhong had been in closed-door cultivation, preparing to pave his way into the final step. However, this final step is always different for each individual. So can break out after a few months, so require many years. There are even so who fail during the promotion to the Heavenly Human Realm...
Old Ancestor Ruhong naturally revealed such an aura because he had broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm before they returned. He needed to solidify his cultivation realm, remaining low-key without announcing publicly.
"Chen Ruhong!"
Zhao Wu Qing squinted his single eye, seemingly surprised, "In a short ti, he has already beco a celestial being... This foundation is much stronger than in the reports!"
Chen Ruhong is a legendary figure, naturally, the Jiaolong Gang has detailed reports on him. It was understood that when Chen Ruhong was young, his aptitude was average. After miraculously surviving a shipwreck, his cultivation skills surged, elevating the Chen Clan to a glorious pedestal.
However, they never thought; intelligence is always just intelligence.
It looks like Chen Ruhong has been hiding his bloodline talent.
"Not good, retreat!"
At the first mont, Zhao Wu Qing flew into the air towards the Jiaolong warship. Facing Chen Ruhong who had recently advanced but wasn’t steady yet, Zhao Wuqing naturally wouldn’t back down.
However, Chen Ruhong was a water-spirit cultivator and held considerable advantages in the vast sea. Zhao Wuqing secretly acknowledged that even if he could defeat Chen, it wouldn’t be over in a short while.
Right now, all of Donggang was alerted. The Chen Clan’s reinforcents were assembling non-stop at the port and were about to set sail for support. If he, Zhao Wuqing, was entangled, then the entire Jiaolong fleet was in intense danger.
Besides, despite Donggang being remote, it was still part of Lord Changning Wang’s territory. If the encounter dragged on, the Wang Clan or other families might co to the rescue.
"Invade my Donggang, and you wish to escape?" Clan Leader Ruhong had been in power over the Chen Clan for more than sixty years; he could size up the situation almost imdiately.
If Jiaolong Gang dared to initiate a move at this juncture, they must have a specific purpose. If he could capture Zhao Wuqing and seize the three Jiaolong battleships, he could strike at Jiaolong Gang’s weak spot.
It would enable him to seize control of the subsequent developnts.
With the Clan Leader’s furious shout, his ice-blue spear swung, stirring up tidal waves and forming pillars of water that shot into the sky like dragons, all charging towards Zhao Wuqing.
Water Dragon Spear!
The Chen Clan’s inherited water spirit artifact was particularly effective in naval battles. Although rely a spiritual artifact, it exuded imnse power when wielded by the Elder in the Heavenly Human Realm.
"You, a newly advanced Heavenly Human, think you can detain , Zhao Wuqing?" In a fit of anger, Zhao Wuqing sent out a punch, shattering all the water pillars.
"So, it is Great Commander Zhao before ." Clan Leader Ruhong said without fear but with delight, "Excellent, excellent, excellent. I heard that Great Commander Zhao is the son of the leader of Jiaolong Gang. Capturing you will be even more useful."
For Ruhong to bring him down single-handedly was naturally not feasible.
However, Chen Clan of Donggang wasn’t alone. Among the prominent families within Changning’s territory, their alliances were as tight as a drum. When they received news of Chen Fanghua and Chen Xiuwu’s rchant fleet being attacked by Jiaolong Gang outside the port, Chen Clan imdiately sent a Spirit Bird to Wang Clan and other allies for aid.
What Clan Leader Ruhong needed to do was to stall Zhao Wuqing. His chances wouldn’t be high elsewhere, but on this sea... Clan Leader Ruhong thought that this was already his best battlefield.
"Good, good, good!" Chen Xiuwu saw his clan’s Old Ancestor had advanced to the Heavenly Human Realm and successfully summoned aid at a critical mont. He imdiately seized the opportunity to shout, "Boys of the Chen Clan, opportunity knocks at last. Fire the Divine Might Cannons for this Young Clan Leader, fire, fire, fire!"
Boom, boom, boom!
A series of Divine Might Cannons sounded.
anwhile, so fast ships had left the Donggang port and sailed out to rescue the rchant vessels. Due to the advantage of battling on ho turf, there would continuously be reinforcents pouring in.
An intense battle arose outside of Donggang Port.
The two Heavenly Humans fought from the sky to the sea, and then from the sea back to the sky. It was overwhelming. Zhao Wuqing tried to escape several tis, but every attempt was fearlessly blocked by Elder Ruhong.
The clash between the fleets was also particularly fierce and brutal. Nevertheless, the Chen Clan of Donggang, which wielded the Divine Might Cannons, seed to hold the upper hand.
Ti ticked away little by little.
Less than an hour later.
A crane’s cry rose to the sky. A Spirit Bird Flying Carriage swooped down from the clouds, heading straight for the battlefield. The carriage bore the mark of the Changning Wang Clan. It was manifestly a carriage reserved for their use.
Lord Wang Shouzhe and his wife surveyed the battleground from the transparent window of the flying carriage.
"My lady, Jiaolong Gang has flagrantly torn the contract with the noble families," Wang Shouzhe said with a slight frown, "It appears a storm is brewing."
"A pack of rubbish," Liu Ruolan’s voice was cold and filled with killing intent, "Just kill them."
"Hmm?" Wang Shouzhe turned his head and imdiately inhaled sharply, my lady... no, has Ruoling surfaced again?
