Chapter 3019: Chapter 3019
The Dragon Girl’s true-dragon aura was alien to the blood-sharks; it clearly didn’t belong to this stretch of sea, so the pack still wanted to test their luck.
A blue whale was simply too tempting.
She instantly told Ye Liuyun everything—down to the exact number of sharks and their power levels.
With his golden pupils Ye Liuyun now saw them clearly: fewer than thirty, the strongest only Fifth-realm Unity, and none anywhere near the whale’s size.
“Perfect—let’s fight them and sharpen our claws!”
He decided to give everyone a good battle and stock up on sea-beast meat.
The demon beasts shifted to their true forms. Purple Kylin Snake and Vermilion Bird hovered above the whale as a mobile infirmary; the rest paired off against sharks of similar strength.
Chi Lian shrank into a little red snake, coiled around Demon Lion’s neck; the lion’s spatial power whisked her from corpse to corpse so she could sip bloodline essence.
After soaking up so much primordial origin from the Draconic World, the beasts had grown bulkier and their primordial aura thickened, but they were still dwarfed by these sea predators.
Only Lei Ming, using a dragon-blood battle art, projected a true-yuan clone even larger than the sharks.
Ye Liuyun swept his Demon-Slayer Saber and led the charge, keeping the sharks at bay. Tang Xinyao’s team split into trios for hit-and-run strikes.
Underwater, the Dragon Girl and one of Ye Liuyun’s clones caught anything that slipped through.
The sharks’ long-range move was simple: a blood-red yuan-shadow that charged like a phantom shark.
Easy to block. Ye Liuyun and a clone met two Fifth-realm phantoms with saber intent and heaven-and-earth force, added a spatial shield, and held the line.
Everyone else did the same, fighting at range; Third-realm Unity cultivators pressed Fourth-realm sharks and held the edge.
Lower-level sharks reeled from the opening salvo—several wounded in the opening blasts, only their massive bodies keeping them from exploding outright.
Then the pack closed. Sharks breached, jaws wide, trying to swallow them whole.
The humans were suddenly on the back foot.
Ye Liuyun flickered through space, dodged a head-on rush, and slashed the flank—only a deep gash, no mortal wound.
He chased the Fifth-realm shark’s head, blade falling like rain. The shark twisted, tail whipping, mouth gulping space, but its spatial sense was weaker; it never caught him.
Neck vertebrae showed white after repeated strikes, yet the brute’s sheer mass shattered every spatial lock Ye Liuyun tried.
So he settled for one spot: cut enough times and even a mountain falls.
Unable to land a physical hit, the shark hurled its soul straight into Ye Liuyun’s sea of consciousness.
“Hah—suicide by soul it is!”
There his soul form towered over the shark’s; the contest was laughably short.
The same trick met his clone—another Fifth-realm shark sent its soul and died just as fast.
Both corpses rolled belly-up and were swept into Ye Liuyun’s inner world.
A Fourth-realm shark tried to slip under and ambush the whale; the Dragon Girl intercepted. No clone needed—her bloodline pressure alone crushed the shark below Unity realm, then her claws ripped its head apart.
None of them killed as fast as Lei Ming. One swipe of her true-yuan clone’s paw caved in a skull—six sharks down already—but the enormous avatar was flickering, her yuan nearly spent.The three Black Tortoises focused solely on the hammerheads, clawing until the sharks’ skulls were pulp. The White Tiger’s golden spear and the Stone Ape’s assorted weapons produced much the same result as Ye Liuyun’s strikes—blood-sharks were big, so they just needed a few more hits; the outcome was identical.
Nine-head Demon Dragon and Black Tiger didn’t bother with finesse: white beams lanced straight through the sharks’ brains, no extra effort required.
Little Blue Ice froze the gills first, shattered them, then iced and chipped off chunk after chunk of skull—never wasting frost on the rest of the colossal body.
Only Chilian and Demon Lion lagged slightly. Chilian still hadn’t drained a single shark dry, but Demon Lion had leapt onto its back, pinning it so the tiger-shark couldn’t shake Chilian off.
Tang Xinyao’s trios worked in rotation: one blocked, two smashed heads to mush.
In minutes the thirty-plus blood-sharks were floating carcasses, dyeing the sea crimson.
“Quick—clean the field, bag the bodies!”
Ye Liuyun ordered immediate collection and a fast withdrawal.
“No time—pack of piranhas incoming!” Long Nu warned.
Following her gaze, Ye Liuyun saw the grotesque fish whose heads dwarfed their bodies—Long Nu’s “piranhas.” Smaller than blood-sharks, but a swarm of three to five hundred.
“Zhankong, Wuying—join in. Target any that leap from the water!”
The two entered the fight. The piranhas were rabid at the scent of blood; numbers huge, and among them Unity Fifth- and Sixth-tier powerhouses.
Yet against these frenzied fish the beasts’ size was no handicap—they relished the coming brawl.
