Jin Rou looked at the young man in front of him and smiled, "It looks like the so called Lord has finally appeared to save the day. These two must have hold great importance to you to make you go out."

Jin Rou could feel a very ancient aura from this dark lord. It was the feeling of traveling in the past of a million years ago. The dark lord may appeared young in appearance, however he knew that wasn't the case.

"Indeed, these two are so important that I cannot let them die here. And since I know that you're stronger than my subordinates, I have to personally come and save them." The dark lord said, "I am called Lord Vestias. But you can call me Vestias."

Though Jin Rou could feel the politeness of the dark lord, the mock and sarcasm in his tone didn't escape Jin Rou's ears. But Jin Rou didn't mind it and answered, "Very well Vestias. Since you have now appeared, it saves me the trouble of looking for you."

"You must be pretty confident." Vestias smiled and examined Jin Rou, "You might be strong, but there's a larger mountain after a mountain, a sky above the sky."

"And you are saying that you are that larger mountain and the sky above my sky?" Jin Rou smirked.

"No, I am not that confident. However at least, I can say that I, as a Dark Lord, am not easy to kill." Vestias said with a calm tone. He wasn't arrogant or anything, as if he was merely speaking facts to begin with.

"Hmm, then let's see how capable you are." Jin Rou didn't waste time and initiated the attack. He released large lightning balls and set the trajectory towards the dark lord.

"Now!" The large lightning balls pulled their weight and pushed towards the dark lord with unimaginable power. It felt like the whole sea's strength wasn't enough to contain this.

"Activate!" Vestias didn't underestimate this attack and immediately used one of his strong defenses. He created a large black mask with a dark wall behind. It was a creepy thing to look at, but anyone could see that it boasted such a high defense capabilites.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The lightning balls clashed with the mask and sturdy wall. The world shook violently as the sun lost its shine. Big cracks around the place appeared as the wind was scattered in all directions.

Jin Rou smiled and jumped upwards and created thousands of lightning spears, "You're good. How about this, then?"

"Hmm?" Vestias was alerted by this. He could feel a tremendous power coming from each of the spears. But he was still confident with the sturdy mask and wall he created. It was one of his highest defense skill.

"Zuah! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Then, the thousands of lightning spears came barraging the wall. The attack was relentless as spears coming one after another, which created a violent earthquake around the world.

"Boom! Boom!" The barrage of attacks didn't stop even a minute passed which made the dark lord confused. The spears were only amounting to thousands at most and it should have ended a while ago.

"Crack!" The dark lord was surprised as he heard a cracking sound from the wall. He steadily moved away along with Zir and Ben to minimize the damage they would take.

"And to destroy it—" Jin Rou dashed towards the worn out mask and wall and threw a powerful and solid punch which had a stronger attack power than the previous attacks.

"Boom!" The mask and wall exploded and its pieces flew all over the place. With that punch, it felt like a mere fragile glass.

The dark lord got away into a safe distance, but the impacts of the punch still affected him and was thrown away by several meters.

"What power..." Vestias couldn't help but acknowledge the other party's strength. With that aftermath effect of the punch, he already felt like his innards were being misplaced. It was painful, but bearable. Now, he needed to be more cautious or else they would die here.

If he, the dark lord, died here, it would cause large damage to the tribe. After all, there wasn't a confirmed successor of his position. Not to mention, things became worse when Zir was injured heavily. Thus, he needed to survive this battle. If he needed to run, he would. Of course, with Zir and Ben in tow.

"I admit it. You are quite strong. I have used so many powerful attacks, yet you are still well. It's incredible." Jin Rou recognized the capabilities of this dark lord. No wonder so many died in this sea. With a being like this here, who would be able to survive? In fact, even those emperors in the past who escaped from the terror of this sea wouldn't fair better if they confront this dark lord.

"It is an honor to receive a praise like that from you." Vestias humbly accepted the praise.

"Tell me, what is your objective in creating a foothold here in the Uncrossable Sea?" Jin Rou asked. He was curious about the certain secrets of this dark tribe.

Vestias was surprised to hear the question. However, he still answered, "The Uncrossable Sea is the perfection place for us to live. After all, the Heaven's Punishment cannot reach here."

"I see." Jin Rou nodded. He also heard of the Heaven's Punishment. It was a tribulation which could be triggered when things that shouldn't supposed to exist have existed, "If that is the reason, why are you killing those who want to cross the sea? I have heard you killed so many emperors and heavenlies in the past."

"Because in order to grow, we need to feed on other people's powers. When we reach a bottleneck, that is the only way for us to overcome it." Vestias answered. If it's another person, he wouldn't dare to share these secrets. However, the person in front of him was on another level that he couldn't even guarantee his chance of survival.
