I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Chapter 614: Chapter 391: Four-Armed Golden Jiao, Guiding Stars Magical Combat (Part 2)

"You human race sword cultivators always like to play this deadly One Sword Soul Slash. Why is it that only you have the Sword Scripture Skill, while we, the sea race, don’t have Divine Soul Protection?"

Having won with one strike, the "Mini Merman Phantom" in front of the Four-armed Golden Shark flew back to his forehead. His originally rigid body instantly came back to life, and he couldn’t help but taunt Qin Guangfeng, who was now looking dejected.

Then he cast his gaze afar, looking at Gu Yuan and Qinn Yun, and sneered, "Two more who don’t know their place have arrived, but your Grandpa Jiao won’t accompany you. I take my leave now!"

With that said, his body flickered, directly passing through layers of mist, breaking through the final checkpoint, and vanished from sight.

"The first battle has ended, who among you will come for the second battle?!"

After the Four-armed Golden Shark left, a person with twin horns, dressed in a Flood Dragon Robe and with a jade pendant around his waist, opened his mouth from behind the mist as if he were an elegant nobleman.

Gu Yuan and Qinn Yun both furrowed their brows.

They had just arrived and witnessed a magical combat, and after the departure of the Four-armed Golden Shark, they were urged to proceed to the second round, still quite unsure of the situation.

"Several upper-class water mansion great demons have joined forces to block this Guanghan Yin Mist passage, requiring magical combat to determine the winners, vying for the chance to enter Profound Celestial Lake."

"Five from the human race, the demon race has sent five demons too. Fight five rounds, whoever wins may enter Profound Celestial Lake to contend for the final exotic treasure."

"The first battle just now was between Fellow Daoist Qin and the Four-armed Golden Shark. Brother Qin lost, so the Four-armed Golden Shark gains entry to Profound Celestial Lake."

Bai Xuyang saw the bewilderment in their faces and softly explained.

"We fight five rounds, but the demon race has seven upper-class demon mansions, what is to be done? What about the remaining two demon mansions?"

Qinn Yun immediately caught the flaw in this arrangement and asked with a furrowed brow.

The human race is weak, the demon race has at least seven upper-class demon mansions, perhaps more.

"Everything happening within the tower is watched by the Marquis. How could we bully the weak? Moreover, there’s only one exotic treasure to contend for, and too many people entering the Profound Celestial Lake will lead to chaos, won’t it?"

"You each pick someone to engage in magical combat, no matter win or lose, only five will make it to the Profound Celestial Lake!"

"As for the remaining demon mansions, rest assured, they won’t be coming."

The great demon with twin horns said nonchalantly.

Gu Yuan was momentarily thoughtful.

It seems the demon race had privately arranged everything, deeming weak beings unworthy to contend for the treasure, and excluded two demon mansions directly.

But, isn’t five slots still too many?

Why not decide a winner here and send just one to contend for the exotic treasure?

Why the unnecessary back and forth?

Will there be another battle inside Profound Celestial Lake?

"Are you planning to swallow the treasures in Profound Celestial Lake?!"

Qinn Yun, keen-minded, quickly understood the cumbersome nature of this rule but knowing more about the rules, understood the intentions behind this, and questioned.

"Fellow Daoist, besides the exotic treasure, Profound Celestial Lake is also the most spiritually abundant place in the tower. Every five hundred years, a batch of treasures is born. The demon race intends to defeat us entirely and then split the exotic treasure and other treasures among the five demons."

"My predecessors from Guanghan Palace, although they failed to obtain the exotic treasure in previous sessions, they gained a couple of treasures from the lake, which proved quite rewarding."

"But this time, the demon race likely wants us to get nothing!"

Qinn Yun transmitted the message, explaining to Gu Yuan.

"Are they just this confident?"

Gu Yuan lamented.

"East Sea Exotic Species have extraordinary strength; it’s not entirely impossible..."

Qinn Yun’s face turned somewhat solemn.

The two of them had come through various challenges, but none involved confronting upper-class water mansion beings.

The strength of upper-class water mansion great demons can be glimpsed from the defeat of Qin Guangfeng.

"East Sea Demon Palace indeed possesses extraordinary strength, comparable to the Central Land Divine State, but my Flying Star Valley is also no small faction. With over ten thousand years of inheritance, we can stand proud."

"If you think we’ll be defeated, you’re likely daydreaming!"

"Let me experience your brilliant moves!"

Bai Xuyang stepped forward, his expression focused, and clasped his hands towards the great demon with twin horns.

"Hahaha, you have some courage, but let’s see if your skills are as firm as your words!"

The great demon with twin horns laughed heartily and swiftly activated the shadow of the Seven Profound Tower at the top of his head, and instantly a cyan celestial veil emerged, enveloping Bai Xuyang.

"Please!"

Bai Xuyang made a reverent prostration, then unleashed mana surging from his body, stars shining behind him, and a silver Star River, thirteen hundred feet in length, descended suddenly.

"Starfall Seal!"

He shouted lightly, and the celestial vault suddenly darkened. In the distant sky, a phantom of a meteor actually fell, carrying an earth-shattering momentum, crashing fiercely toward the great demon.

"To summon the phantom of the starry sky, Flying Star Valley truly lives up to its name, but it’s not enough!"

"Behold my Sea Gathering Heaven-Flipping Skill!"

The great demon laughed upon seeing this, lightly waved his sleeve.

His sleeve seemed to conceal something unknown, suddenly a vast sea erupted from it.

Though the sleeve didn’t look large, it spewed out infinite seawater in the blink of an eye. The water surged like a mighty flood dragon, soared from the sleeve, rushing skyward to meet the descending star phantom.

"Boom!!"

The celestial vault fell, a scene earth-shattering. Yet the seawater ceaselessly and boundlessly surged, reaching its pinnacle as if an entire ocean had coalesced, its might even greater, brutally shattering the star shadow. Moreover, its momentum unabated, it turned back towards Bai Xuyang.

Sea Gathering Heaven-Flipping Skill, the innate divine power of the Cangyuan Flood Dragon clan.

This divine power enables the condensation of infinite seawater, continuously compressing it like cords and storing it within the sleeve.
