Chapter 237 – Dying the Blue Sea Red

Kun Peng was one of the archaic vicious ten . Now that the remains of its nest were surprisingly displayed right in front of everyone, the breath-taking scene had left everyone astonished and shaken!

A withered and grand cliff stood in the middle of the sea . The nest was built on it and had existed since the archaic times . It had always hidden itself in the vast ocean, and no one had been able to set eyes on the divine power in the nest .

The sea was blood red with the bodies from all different species floated in the water . Ear-splitting cries of war shook the heavens; with the inevitable appearance of the Kun Peng’s matchless precious techniques, all the clans brought over their elites .

“Lightning Dog, how dare you to kill my offspring!” The loud roar of a bird could be heard . A green bird spread its wings, creating strong winds that made the blue ocean waves rise and fall .

The big green bird was a descendant of the divine Green Luan . The brilliant creature shone with resplendent light as it arrived from the horizon . As it swooped down, waves reached high into the sky as the waters moved chaotically, showing signs of just how terrifying and powerful it was .

In front, there was an enormous dog whose entire body was shining . Streaks of lightning flickered all around it as it moved through the waters . As it attacked, Green Luan descendants were killed one after another . The Lightning Dog refined their blood essence to replenish itself .

Fluctuation happened now and then in the forbidden sea, suppressing the cultivation of the mighty ones, squandering a large amount of their divine force . Experts with cultivation levels exceeding the spirit transformation realm felt strenuous here, constantly needing to replenish their essence energy .

The big green bird dove down and released resplendent blades of light . Even the waters exploded upon being struck . The endless sea began to evaporate; this attack was too powerful .

However, the Lightning Dog was also incredible . It howled towards the sky, drowning the Green Luan in bolts of lightning .

Lightning interweaved in the air as blades of light flurried about, causing blood to flash and feathers to dance about chaotically . Both creatures were injured .

Meanwhile, an enormous living creature seemed to be breathing deep in the sea . It was so incredible that the entire world seemed to resonate with it . As it moved up and down, layers of ripples began to diffuse outwards .

“This is bad, it’s happening again!” Many creatures panicked and cried out .

Ordinary creatures weren’t affected much, but the faces of experts beyond the spirit transformation realm immediately changed . They dashed away from the battlefield at top speed for a peaceful region to occupy .

The fluctuation was a form of suppression, forcing them down from a higher cultivation level . Not being able to surpass the spirit transformation level was extremely dangerous for these experts .

Sure enough, there were some experts that suffered attacks after being suppressed by the fluctuation . A group of Sea Demons leapt high into the air to pursue and kill the experts situated at the lowest points .

Pu!

The big green bird and the Lightning Dog were both killed after being surrounded by thousands of Sea Devils . It was truly like the saying where enough ants could kill an elephant . Blood sprinkled everywhere as the two were killed in midair .

Similar things happened all over this sea . The waters become crimson as the corpses painted out a tragic sight .

The suppression finally ceased . Another tumult was over .

Ao hou…

A Nine-headed Lion roared in the distance . It opened its gaping mouths and raise all nine heads high, shaking the heaven and earth . Fierce golden light radiated from the lion, and as it sucked in with its mouth, the Sea Demons in the sky all fell into its mouths .

This type of might startled many creatures . They all became frightened .

“This… Could it be the Nine Spirit King?” Shi Hao stood on the Ghost Ship and watched the battle from afar . He was quite surprised at this, as his sworn younger brother — the Nine-Headed Lion, had a grandfather called the Nine Spirit King .

Beside it, a huge fish leapt out from ocean surface . It radiated a purple glow, making it look like a purple divine mountain . The fish similarly devoured many creatures with a single bite .

It was a strike-back against those experts beyond the spirit transformation level, killed off by creatures at lower levels . It was truly a humiliation, but there was nothing they could do due to the peculiarity of this place . Following the release of fluctuations of the Kun Peng nest from time to time, their cultivation realm would immediately be suppressed .

More bodies decorated the sea surface, dying the ocean surface in blood .

Ao hou… The nine-headed lion roared before ultimately dashing far away . It left behind a trail of blazing golden light as it fled, not wanting to die here .

In fact, other mighty creatures also planned to do the same because they didn’t want to take further risks . They started to back away, leaving this battleground .

However, everything was still in chaos . Some mighty beings beyond the spirit transformation level were still moving in and out of the water . They were trying to approach the ancient nest, willing to take the risk for the Kun Peng treasured artifact .

It was too a point where this place did not lack extremely powerful individuals . Even a group of supreme experts quietly sneaked in .

Shi Hao was full of excitement . Even though he was watching carefully, he did not act hastily . It was extremely dangerous here with many big shots lurking .

Hong!

Ocean waves reached sky-high as the sea split open to reveal a grey mountain ridge . It was shockingly enormous . Many creatures in the sea panicked and fled at once .

The mountain ridge began to rise higher and higher from the sea surface . It was almost like a continent, appearing incomparably majestic .

“Oh my god… It’s an ancient flood dragon!”

“It’s… the Elder Flood Dragon!”

Many creatures cried out in surprise . All species, regardless of terrestrial or aquatic ones, shuddered at the scene . They knew who was coming, and that creature was the most powerful creature of its region .

The reputation of the Elder Flood dragon could shake this sea . Like the Elder Sea Devil, it was also the master of a region . Even the creatures of the Sea God Island had to show it some respect .

The Elder Flood Dragon had came in person . It was so powerful that even while suppressed, it could sweep over this place with its mere physical strength . How could the creatures here not cry out in surprise?

Hong!

The sky split open and black fog filled the air . An enormous devil bird crossed the sky, covering the entire sea . It was about to dive directly towards the massive withered cliff .

“The Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow! It’s still alive!” Shi Hao was surprised . His eyes were opened wide as he stared at the bird with hatred and rage . It was directly related to the destruction of Heaven Mending Pavilion .

Had it and the Qiong Qi not come, the divine vine would not have fought to death, and the other sects would not have dared to attack them .

Although the Ghost grandpa chopped off a wing and claw later in the fight, the sparrow had obvious survived the injury and fled the scene .

Now that it appeared again, its mighty strength was world-shaking like a Kun Peng . Being a bird as well, it crave this type of precious technique the most .

Dong!

The body of an enormous flood dragon surfaced in the sea, shaking up endless waves and violently disturbing the waters . The splattered water pierced into the clouds, showing how formidable the power was .

Many creatures were sent flying by the wave . It was very difficult to keep one’s footing here . The withered cliff stood tall and was the only thing unshaken, and not even the ocean waves could drown it out .

The grey flood dragon attacked no one but the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow, trying to drive it away . The dragon did not want the sparrow to get hold of the divine cliff, wanting the precious technique for itself .

“Hong!”

The two fought ferociously . Symbols flashed like a sea of thunder, shaking the heaven and earth, evaporating the water nearby, almost drying the surrounding sea area completely .

“Something has definitely gone wrong . Those above the spirit transformation level are able to enter as well . This is not good . ” Shi Hao felt regretful .

All of a sudden, the ancient cliff glowed, as if it was responding to something . Circles of golden ripples spread from it and expanded gently into the air .

The Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow cried out in surprise . Its feathers began to flutter in the wind, and blood trickled outwards . It quickly rushed into the air, rushing into the distance while shuddering severely .

At the same time, the grey flood dragon sank into the sea, leaving a huge whirlpool and a trail of blood behind . It had also fled after experiencing the equally terrifying suppression .

This place was full of mighty beings with creatures like the Elder Flood Dragon and the Heaven-Swallowing Sparrow that were rarely seen . They were willing to risk their lives for the Kun Peng’s precious technique .

To sum it up, the wasteland was going to be thrown into chaos . Something vital was about to happen, so these supreme experts all had their eyes set on the Kun Peng’s precious technique, wanting to strengthen themselves with it .

The sea quieted down . The water turned even redder as bodies piled up higher and higher as the other creatures rushed back again . However, no one knew how many mightiest beings stayed, hiding among them .

A few moments later, the sea was crowded again . Many creatures dashed forward, but no one could get close to the withered cliff . The Kun Peng nest seemed to be within their reach, but it was always some distance away, like a mirage .

The Ghost Ship was also moving forward . Shi Hao sat in it and watched it all quietly . Whenever species holding grudges met in this sea, they would immediately fight to death, filling this place with heaven shaking war cries .

The majority of them were powerful beings . The weak ones were not qualified to come here .

Of course, nearly ninety percent of them were creatures of the sea . This was their home court, so if a member of a clan showed up, thousands of them would follow into the fight .

“Why are such strange things happening?” Shi Hao wondered .

Three days had passed . He had seen too many bloody battles since then, and even his Ghost Ship was attacked several times . Countless bodies floated in the water .

However, they were still unable to approach the ancient divine cliff .

It didn’t seem that far away and was quite distinct . Streaks of chaotic energy descended one after another, yet no one could truly approach and enter .

The journey had cost them half a month, with fights breaking out through this entire trip . All the clans fought with their lives on the line, some for old grudges and others to gain a dominance here . Their competitors were wiped out, and some hope could finally be seen .

After trudging for half a month, the ancient cliff suddenly seemed vast and unclimbable . Marks from claws, knives and swords had been left on the wall, recording the struggle of countless years .

A stone staircase was laid out in the sea, leading up to the cliff .

The length of the staircase was a bit terrifying . It was boundless, allowing countless creatures to simultaneously climb any congestion .

The ridiculous amount of effort involved in building such a grand structure amazed them all .

Even though all of them could have climbed it together, the endless killing continued . Experts from all different races fought as they ascended, leaving behind numerous corpses .

“This doesn’t seem like the withered cliff we saw before in the middle of the sea at all . After getting closer, it seems more like a large piece of land!” Shi Hao exclaimed . This was one of the Kun Peng’s personal creations .

He fought back the urge to climb up with everyone else and waited in the sea nearby instead . Other powerful clans had their elders as guardians, some of which even hid in the crowd . He was all by himself, so acting incautiously would be risky .

Several days passed in succession . The fluctuations from the withered cliff became more and more frequent . In the end, the ripples seemed to have become continuous, spreading towards all directions .

It meant that those beyond the spirit transformation level had been completed suppressed, bringing them much trouble . Several days had passed since those people climbed up the stairs, and no bad news had been heard since then .

The devilish brat could not wait any longer and wanted to move into action . Otherwise, he might be too late to obtain anything .

“The mightiest experts had retreated . We can move now!”

Someone murmured from the distance . Quite a few creatures were thinking the same thing as Shi Hao . Another wave of figures began to climb up the stairs .

“Be careful . I heard that some supreme experts took the risk to hide in the crowd . They are also trying to get into the Kun Peng nest . ”

“What? Are they crazy? Do you know how difficult it is to cultivate to their level?! They have achieved their cultivation level after many years of hard work . If they die here because of the suppression, all of it would have been for nothing . ”

“The precious technique of the archaic vicious ten are simply insurmountable . Obtaining one would immediately give them the qualifications to aim for the peak of this world . Even creatures as powerful as them have gone mad over this . ”

Many creatures fell into discussion . The atmosphere was extremely heavy .

Hearing this, Shi Hao held back his impulse and calmed down again . He had to wait . Only after the fluctuations of the cliff truly became continuous and an unsurpassable suppression had formed would he enter . It would be safer that way .

Two days later, the condition was reached . The violent fluctuations formed a carpet of ripples, suppressing this region completely .

During this time, he had witnessed many terrestrial creatures climbed up the staircase while accompanied by divine servants, including several groups of pure-blooded ones .

“Those are alliances of other divine mountains . So powerful! Those youth are all extremely formidable . ” Commented Shi Hao .

Those youth were all extremely talented and heroic . They were all at the peak of the spirit transformation realm . If they fought, they could easily defeat their enemies .

The girls all possessed ethereal beauty, looking like fairies that descended into this world . There were a few that especially beautiful, possessing a grace and elegance that was almost peerless in this land .

Pure-blooded creatures from the sea also showed up, and they were all quite young . It was rumored there were descendants from ocean deities and heirs of supreme experts . They were extremely powerful, and were currently taking on human forms .

A power struggle was destined to happen here . Outstanding talents were going to display their skills, and the strong ones will rise . Heavenly youths and peerless beauties moved out at the same time, and the truly unrivalled characters were going to fight for the top . Only the most powerful could have a chance at obtaining the precious technique .

Shi Hao abandoned the Ghost Ship and finally stepped onto the staircase within the sea . Step by step, he walked towards the ancient land .

The closer he got to the withered cliff, the wider it became . It was as if he entered a new world that was incomparably massive instead of an ocean cliff .

“Yi, you are still alive?”

Shi Hao was just about to approach the ancient land after leaving the sea when someone noticed him, revealing a look of shock and coldness .

Obviously, Shi Hao had noticed them as well . They were none other than the members of the Heavenly Mountain alliance . The purple-clothed girl, Yin Xue, Chi Huo, several divine servants and Qing Yun were among them, and Qing Yun was the one who spoke .

Shi Hao looked calm, but his eyes contained a slight chilliness . Not long ago, these people not only did not save him but even struck him while he was down, wanting him dead .
