Chapter 699: Chapter 309: Reinforcements, Zhao Blood Armor
Here it feels like another world, the light is extremely faint, coming from the distant and unreachable sea surface above, like a hazy moonlight filtering through layers of inky black veils, barely outlining the gigantic, hideous contours of the surrounding reefs.
The seawater is ice-cold and bone-chilling, filled with a rich aura of deathly silence and desolation.
Huge seaweeds move silently like ghostly tentacles in the undercurrents, and some strange deep-sea creatures emitting cold phosphorescent light hover in the distant darkness, casting cold and curious glances.
This is the seabed of the Blue Sea, the most mysterious place in the ocean.
Legend has it that the seabed holds the most treasures in the entire Hongze, a natural treasure trove, attracting countless cultivators to dive into the depths of the Blue Sea every year in search of treasures.
But at this moment, none of them have the luxury of time to observe the surrounding world or search for the treasures beneath the sea.
The energy ship that Han Wangshan had transformed into, after accomplishing the remarkable feat of crossing the boundary river, had already dimmed significantly, with fine cracks appearing on the hull, eventually disintegrating completely, leaving only a silver-white spine behind.
Xu Guang, quick on his feet, snatched the last remaining item left by Han Wangshan.
Others witnessing this scene had a flash of something unusual in their eyes. Han Wangshan’s methods are strange, and a means of transforming oneself into a ship is quite extraordinary.
However, due to the previous relationships between Han Wangshan, the Dragon Elephant Demon, and Xu Guang, they suppressed their desires.
After all, the combat power of the Dragon Elephant Demon and Xu Guang is the key to their breakthrough.
Everyone on the ship landed, whether human or demon, their breaths were weak, faces pale.
The turbulence of the boundary river, the erosion of time folds, the interference of eerie whispers, all consumed their enormous heart spirit and strength.
Their condition was not good.
But the army of sea creatures from the opposing side had already surrounded them all.
"By the order of Lord Yuan Bo, this place will be your burial ground! Kill!"
The voice of the whale shark demon general was like two rusty pieces of iron rubbing together, harsh and unpleasant, yet carrying a cold indifference.
He did not even show much cruelty or excitement, as if crushing the group before him was just a predetermined and uninteresting task.
No war cries before battle, no excessive emotional outburst. As the cold word "kill" fell, the silent army of sea creatures instantly "came alive"!
"Roar——!!!"
The roar of countless sea creatures converged into a thunderous, terrifying sound wave in the depths of the sea, stirring up turbulent undercurrents, accompanied by a destructive aura, launching a furious charge towards Xu Guang and the others who had just escaped the boundary river and had no time to catch their breath!
The scene was as if the entire seabed had turned into a giant beast choosing to devour people, opening its pitch-black maw.
Everyone’s hearts sank quickly, each person’s condition was extremely poor.
The strongest Dragon Elephant Demon let out a low growl, the wound on his chest splitting open again, dark golden blood mixing into the seawater, yet he still stepped forward, ready for the final combat.
Master Qingsong looked somber, forcibly gathering a breath of Source Qi, the white jade duster shining with light, yet appearing so weak.
"Everyone hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Xu Guang’s gaze swept over everyone.
Then he sensed the position of General Wei, already very close, and he let out a sigh of relief.
He knew General Wei was with Yuan Shuang and others, and Yuan Shuang’s arrival could at least buy him some time. If he could recover a bit, breaking through would not be difficult.
Master Qingsong took a breath and said, "Everyone, listen to me. Among us, Mr. Xu and the City Lord are the strongest. We should try to buy them as much time as possible, alright?"
Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, their eyes filled with inexplicable meanings.
"Fellow Daoist Qingsong, it’s not that we are unwilling, it’s just that currently, we can’t even ensure our own safety, let alone withstand the pressure!"
Someone spoke with a bitter expression.
Master Qingsong’s expression turned cold, "Don’t forget, the reason we got this far is thanks to Fellow Daoist Han!"
Xu Guang watched this scene coldly, unmoved.
These people are unreliable, especially those found by Master Qingsong at the sea eye.
Hiding in the sea eye for so many years, if they had courage and mutual trust, they wouldn’t have failed to cross the boundary bridge even once over the years.
But fortunately, he didn’t need to count on these people.
Because...
General Wei had arrived.
As the army of sea creatures charged over.
"Ang——!!!"
A robust, ancient, primitive elephant trumpet sounded as if it pierced through layers of space barriers, suddenly exploding from the dark seawater beside everyone!
This elephant trumpet was so special, with similarities to the roar of the Dragon Elephant Demon, yet purer, loftier, carrying a kind of bloodline-linked excitement!
Immediately, the dark seawater was torn open like a curtain by a forceful, wild power!
A colossal ancient elephant, gigantic as a mountain, its entire body covered in dark golden thick fur, tusks like crescent moons, trampled the reefs with its four hooves, carrying a torrent of overwhelming, mountains-razing force, charged into the battlefield fiercely!
It was General Wei!
He was even larger than when at Nine Saints Island, his aura more condensed and fierce, surrounded by tangible Blood Qi, clearly having made significant progress in the six years under the Ancient Elephant Saint.
Though still at the level of First Nirvana, the terrifying power from his ancient bloodline made his charging momentum not the slightest inferior to some Second Nirvana Demon Kings!
The Dragon Elephant Demon looked over instantly after Xu Guang raised his head, his expression becoming extremely complex.
