Chapter 0218: The Beast God Peter
The Yellow Dragon returned to the Sea of Death, gazing at the faint dark mist over it with a sense of awe.
Ten years ago, when he was six years old, he had subdued the Sky-Blue Python Ox in this sea and fought fiercely against the demon princess Anlei—those memories were still vivid in his mind.
In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.
Back then, the Yellow Dragon was only at the level of Refining Qi to Transform into a Spirit. But now, he had reached the Tribulation Phase and was the strongest being below the divine level on the Hengyuan Continent.
“Let’s go!” The Yellow Dragon took the lead, soaring upward toward the deepest parts of the Sea of Death.
Along the way, they moved swiftly without encountering any obstacles.
The Sea of Death hadn’t changed much from ten years ago—its waters were filled with the killings and roars of dark magical beasts, and teams and ships hunting these beasts could be seen everywhere.
“Look! What’s that?!”
On the Sea of Death, warriors on some massive Nine-Yin Ironclad Ships suddenly pointed upward. Everyone looked up and saw five beams of light flashing by at incredible speed.
Those who looked up were stunned, mouths agape.
“Are those warriors from the Holy Land?!” someone exclaimed.
Only warriors from the Holy Land could fly in the air.
“That’s such fast speed! Even our Commander Shidu doesn’t have such speed!”
Commander Shidu was a mid-level warrior from the Holy Land.
“Could it be high-level warriors from the Holy Land?!”
Peak-level warriors from the Holy Land were extremely rare. Since five of them appeared at once, it was likely they were high-level warriors.
Yet, the appearance of five high-level Holy Land warriors in the Sea of Death was still astonishing enough.
“Could there be some treasure in the Endless Sea that attracted these five high-level Holy Land warriors?”
“Who knows?”
The arrival of the Yellow Dragon and his companions sparked discussions among the people of the Sea of Death, with all sorts of guesses circulating.
A few days later, they finally reached the core area of the Sea of Death.
That area was the kingdom of the dark magical beasts from the Holy Land.
Suddenly, just as they were about to go deeper, massive waves rose on the surface of the Sea of Death. Amidst those waves, the roars of magical beasts echoed through the air—roars like dragon cries, like the screams of monstrous fish, and like the cries of giant birds and beasts.
Then, to the astonishment of the Yellow Dragon and his companions, giant beasts emerged from the waves.
These beasts had wings on their backs. When their wings were spread, they were twenty to thirty meters wide, and the entire beast was a hundred meters long. Their fur was dark blue, their eyes were pitch black, and beneath their bellies were two giant claws as thick as small mountains.
“Deep-Sea Magic Dragon Whales!”
Deep Sea Dragon Whales, a sub-species of dragons, among the sea’s dominators, capable of flying, usually living thousands of feet deep in the ocean. No one expected to encounter them here, and these thirty-some Deep Sea Dragon Whales were all extremely powerful, having reached the Saint Domain realm, with some even at its peak! The giant eyes of the two Deep Sea Dragon Whales at the peak of the Saint Domain, several meters in size, glowed with a crimson light: “Humans, this is the territory of our Dragon Whale clan. Please leave!” Realizing that the five Huang Dragons were no ordinary beings, the thirty-some Deep Sea Dragon Whales formed a formation but did not attack. The Huang Dragons, upon seeing the thirty-some Deep Sea Dragon Whales before them, actually smiled. Seeing the humans not panicked but smiling indifferently, the Dragon Whales grew angry. Suddenly, an overwhelming pressure spread everywhere. Faced with this immense pressure, the Dragon Whales trembled in fear, staring at the Huang Dragons before retreating. “Powerful beings of the Divine Domain!” exclaimed the two Deep Sea Dragon Whales at the peak of the Saint Domain. They had not expected there to be such powerful beings among the humans. The Huang Dragons and their companions had concealed their auras while diving deep into the Sea of Death, so the Deep Sea Dragon Whales did not realize that the pressure came from the Sea God Apton. Unexpectedly, after Apton emitted the pressure of a Divine Domain being and the Dragon Whales retreated, their giant eyes suddenly emitted a cold, eerie light, mixed with a blood-devouring glow. “Huh!” Apton and the others were stunned. “Bad! These Dragon Whales are about to self-destruct!” suddenly cried Simp from the Phoenix clan. Indeed, those Deep Sea Dragon Whales seemed to have been provoked and were about to explode all at once. If all thirty-some Deep Sea Dragon Whales in the Saint Domain exploded, the power would be unimaginable. Especially those two at the peak of the Saint Domain—if they exploded and the Huang Dragons and their companions failed to dodge in time, they would likely suffer severe injuries or even be reduced to ashes by the shockwave. At that moment, a sharp glint appeared in Huang Dragon’s eyes as he took action. “Vacuum Barrier!” With a strike of his hands, the air currents within dozens of miles around him seemed to be instantly sucked away, creating a vacuum barrier. Inside this barrier, the thirty-some Deep Sea Dragon Whales, who were about to explode, suddenly froze, their surging power coming to a halt. Then, with a thought from Huang Dragon, a golden light flashed, and a rope, like a dragon emerging from the sea, wrapped around the Dragon Whales. It was the Immortal Binding Rope. “Retreat!”
The Binding Rope wrapped around them repeatedly, and in an instant, it tied up all those deep-sea demon dragon whales. Then, it transformed into a streak of light and entered the Immortals’ Pavilion.
These deep-sea demon dragon whales were quite powerful, especially those two at the peak of the Sacred Realm. Killing them would be a shame, so Huang Long planned to capture and subdue them. He intended to release them in the waters around Chishui Island to add an extra layer of defense there.
Chishui Island’s strength was still somewhat weak at present.
When the Sea God Apton and the others saw that all those deep-sea demon dragon whales were about to self-destruct, they intended to retreat to avoid harm. But in the blink of an eye, those whales were captured by Huang Long.
Watching those deep-sea demon dragon whales finally disappear between Huang Long’s eyebrows, the Sea God Apton and the others were deeply shocked.
A god-tier powerhouse could create a spatial domain within their body to store certain things. However, there were limits to what could be stored. For example, even ordinary lower gods wouldn’t dare to keep those deep-sea demon dragon whales inside, as the spatial energy in their domain wouldn’t be able to suppress their self-destructive power. That could backfire and seriously injure them instead.
Everyone had mixed thoughts.
Huang Long gave the Sea God Apton a meaningful glance, then said calmly to everyone, “Let’s go. This commotion has wasted a lot of time.” With that, he turned into a streak of golden light and vanished.
The Sea God Apton and the others regained their composure and quickly followed after him.
As they went deeper, they encountered many obstacles. The dark magical beasts living in the Sea of Death seemed to have been stimulated by something and, just like those deep-sea demon dragon whales, would self-destruct whenever they encountered Huang Long and his group.
However, those dark magical beasts met the same fate as the deep-sea demon dragon whales—they were all tied up with the Binding Rope and pulled into the Immortals’ Pavilion, where they were subdued one by one.
Now, with the spirit entity, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, in the Immortals’ Pavilion, it could operate arrays like the Great Yan Divine Thunder on its own to subdue those dark magical beasts, so Huang Long didn’t need to exert much effort.
Yet, watching Huang Long continuously store those dark magical beasts inside his body, the Sea God Apton and the others were ultimately overwhelmed with awe.
By now, Huang Long must have stored two or three hundred of those dark magical beasts inside him.
And all of them were from the Sacred Realm!
How many Sacred Realm dark magical beasts were there in the Sea of Death in total? It was likely that Huang Long had already captured most of them along the way.
If all two or three hundred Sacred Realm dark magical beasts were subdued, just imagine how terrifying that would be.
This army of holy domain demons, numbering two or three hundred, could likely sweep across the entire Hengyuan Realm without any problem; even the powerful beings of the Divine Realm would have to retreat far away. Sea God Apton, Phoenix clan member Simp, and Belin had complex feelings as they watched the Yellow Dragon, sighing inwardly. Meanwhile, Long Yi of the World Alliance grew increasingly pleased with his decision. He could already imagine that if this mission succeeded, the Yellow Dragon and the Huang family would become the most powerful force on the Hengyuan Continent, and his long-held wish—destroying the dragon race—would finally be fulfilled! Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts, suddenly strong fluctuations of power were detected ahead. Everyone was startled—what was this? Then they rejoiced, as it seemed that the people from Leiyan Mansion hadn’t arrived first; the key to unlocking the Blue Whale Temple still hadn’t fallen into their hands. So, they sped up again. Before long, they arrived at the sea of fierce battle. On one side was Leiyan Mansion, while on the other were three Sky Devouring Pythons! Three Sky Devouring Pythons that had reached Divine Realm strength! These three pythons were revealing their true forms and fighting against two thin old men. Each of the three pythons was two hundred zhang long, covered in green and black patterns, with two legs on their bellies and three eyes. As for those two thin old men, the Yellow Dragon’s eyes narrowed—they must be the Hell Demons who had escaped from the Endless Sea. From the battle, it was clear that although these two Hell Demons were stronger than the three Sky Devouring Pythons, they couldn’t overcome them for now. Zewei from Leiyan Mansion, Eino from Dragon Island, and a middle-aged half-orc were standing aside. But to the Yellow Dragon’s surprise, besides Leiyan Mansion’s people, there was also Tobias, a four-winged angel from the Church, standing beside him. Next to Tobias were two middle-aged men who looked exactly alike, with gray energy currents swirling around them, emitting a destructive aura. “Beast God Peter!” Sea God Apton, Phoenix clan member Simp, Belin, and Long Yi all exclaimed in shock upon seeing those two middle-aged men, though their voices also carried a hint of confusion and surprise. It seemed that Sea God Apton and the others hadn’t expected that the Beast God of the Orc Empire on Hengyuan Continent was actually two people! Beast God Peter? A cold glint flashed in the Yellow Dragon’s eyes. Unbeknownst to him, four-winged angel Tobias not only knew where the key indicated by the ancient map of the Blue Whale Temple was but had also allied himself with the Beast God of the Orc Empire.
