When they realized the number of Sea Clan creatures around them was increasing rapidly, and escaping might soon beco impossible, the Immortals at the seabed finally began to consider retreating.
The Chaos Lotus and Emperor Rank Immortal Artifact on the little Immortal in white were indeed enticing, but they needed their lives to obtain them.
Knowing that staying at the seabed was almost certainly lethal, what Immortal would willingly face death?
Moreover, once they broke through to the surface, they could continue to keep watch from above; the dominant Sea Clan at the seabed wouldn’t allow the little Immortal in white to linger for long.
As soon as the little Immortal in white lost the protection of the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone and surfaced, escape would be impossible.
Thus, the Immortals exerted themselves completely, maneuvering their Immortal Artifacts to carve a bloody path through the Sea Clan, rushing upward at full speed.
During this process, many Immortals were intercepted by the Sea Clan and ultimately failed to break through the surface, perishing in the depths of the ocean.
Yet the frantic counterattacks, even Self-Detonation, from Immortals before their deaths caused significant losses to the Sea Clan.
In the end, more than half of the Immortals who dove into the seabed to pursue Fang Bai managed to escape, while a smaller portion beca food for the Sea Clan.
The ocean, stretching for ten thousand miles around, was dyed red; the floating corpses and remains on the surface attested to the ferocity of the previous battle.
"Finally, it’s quiet!"
Fang Bai, sitting cross-legged within the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone at the seabed, muttered to himself as he saw no Immortals remaining around him.
Though pairs of ghostly green, greedy eyes belonging to the Sea Clan continued to watch him from a thousand feet away, Fang Bai knew that as long as he stayed obediently within the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone, those powerful Sea Clan creatures wouldn’t dare attack him like the Immortals did, ensuring his safety.
This Emperor Realm Dragon Bone had existed in this seabed for millions of years. Its powerful pressure and intense killing intent intimidated the Sea Clan, deterring them from approaching.
Over ti, this region of the sea beca a forbidden zone for the Sea Clan.
The Sea Clan, thousands of feet away, also noticed Fang Bai’s presence, but dared only to observe from afar, not daring to approach.
Possessing formidable strength, the Sea Clan also had high intelligence. Like the Immortals before them, they knew Fang Bai must have treasures with him to be able to enter the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone.
Thus, a large number of Sea Clan creatures hovered ghost-like in the water a thousand feet away, refusing to disperse.
Fang Bai was well-prepared and not worried about being unable to leave the seabed.
Being within the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone was exceedingly safe, and during this rare opportunity, Fang Bai flipped his left hand, revealing a petal of the Chaos Lotus in his palm.
Instantly, the rich, pure Chaos Immortal Qi mixed with the faint fragrance of the flower and dispersed in all directions with the flow of the water.
The large number of Sea Clan creatures a thousand feet away sensed the Chaos Immortal Qi and floral fragrance, causing a commotion as their ghostly green eyes fixated greedily on the Chaos Lotus petal in Fang Bai’s palm.
Originally, the lotus seeds of the Chaos Lotus had the best auxiliary effect for Cultivation, but during a Divine Sense check earlier, Fang Bai discovered the seeds in the lotus receptacle were not yet mature, so he picked a petal and ate it directly.
As the petal entered his stomach, it imdiately transford into strands of Chaos Immortal Qi, surging towards Fang Bai’s limbs and bones. Fang Bai imdiately began circulating Immortal Law, guiding the strands of Chaos Immortal Qi to circulate throughout his body.
Then, Fang Bai extracted all the Chaos Immortal Qi from the seven representations of his Primordial Spirit that sat cross-legged within his Qi Sea, rging them with the circulating strands of Chaos Immortal Qi in his body, and began to exert full effort to break through barriers.
Previously, Fang Bai had cultivated around the Treasured Lotus Holy Mountain for eighty-one days without advancing in rank, but had absorbed a significant amount of Immortal Qi into his body. His Qi Sea was swelling and full, repeatedly washing through his ridians, reaching the critical point for a breakthrough.
Now, consuming a petal of the Chaos Lotus, which transford into Chaos Immortal Qi entering his body, equated to the final push to kick open the door to advancent.
Fang Bai circulated Immortal Law, guiding the Immortal Qi as he initiated repeated assaults towards a higher realm.
Three days and nights later, Fang Bai’s body shuddered lightly. Imdiately, a powerful wave of energy, centered on him, spread violently outward, causing the water to emit a deep "popping" sound, turning into torrents that rapidly reversed outward.
So powerful Sea Clan creatures a thousand feet away, unable to retreat in ti, were caught in the torrents and swept away like autumn leaves, tumbling far off. So of the weaker forces were actually knocked unconscious.
After a re dozen breaths, the surroundings returned to calm, and Fang Bai slowly opened his eyes, sharp brilliance flashing briefly within them.
"The Fourth Rank of the Immortal King Realm..."
Feeling his strength had multiplied many tis over compared to before, Fang Bai’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.
Though his current strength still fell short in comparison to those Immortal Emperor Realm Experts, he understood that his rapid advancent speed in the Immortal Realm already qualified as an unprecedented miracle.
Fang Bai actually had multiple ways to further elevate his Cultivation Level and strength more quickly, but in his view, doing so would be like forcing growth, preventing a solid foundation, which in the long run, would be very detrintal.
Fang Bai preferred progressing step by step like this, with each realm solidified thoroughly before considering advancent.
After advancing, Fang Bai did not rush to leave the seabed, continuing to sit cross-legged within the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone, holding his breath to consolidate his realm.
The observing Sea Clan, upon discovering Fang Bai possessed a petal of the Chaos Lotus—an unsurpassed treasure—were even more reluctant to disperse.
In the blink of an eye, a month’s ti passed, and when Fang Bai erged from his Cultivation State, his divine aura was subdued, and his temperant had further ascended, drawing closer to a realm of returning to simplicity and purity.
"Still unwilling to leave? Then I shall drive you away!"
Fang Bai, noticing the increasing number of Sea Clan creatures a thousand feet away, grinned and summoned the Houyi Bow.
He gathered Chaos Fire Immortal Qi, transforming it into arrows, then drew the bow, firing four arrows in rapid succession simultaneously.
The four fire arrows breached layers of resistance from the seawater, faster than lightning, illuminating the marine realm while carrying undeniable power, howling as they tore towards the Sea Clan.
The majority of Sea Clan creatures at the forefront possessed Immortal Emperor Realm strength. While Fang Bai’s arrows from the Houyi Bow were powerful, they were not damaging enough to harm them, thus they neither dodged nor evaded, their eyes even displaying disdain.
Of course, Fang Bai did not expect to harm them with these arrows.
After being fired, the four arrows suddenly changed direction after a hundred feet, turning towards the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone where Fang Bai stood.
"Has that Immortal gone insane?"
The Sea Clan, though intelligent, were montarily bewildered at this scene, unable to comprehend Fang Bai’s intentions.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The attack from the four fire arrows successfully triggered the counterattack of four killing intents from the Emperor Realm Dragon Bone. Four colossal Black Water Dragons erged, roaring ferociously, swallowing the fire arrows before continuing their montum, rushing in all directions.
