Chapter 883: Full Force Ahead
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A golden glow swept through a tide in the deep sea.
The swipe of the blade cut through a group of prowling deep-sea monsters. As the blade pa.s.sed through them, the monsters vanished into dust and left behind a fog of blood.
“Roar!”
The roar belonged to a chief of a deep-sea monster tribe, a powerful chief who had the powers of the Consolidation Realm.
Their tribe had been dominant for as long as there were currents in the ocean. Due to their leader being an overlord with the powers of the Consolidation Realm, there were no other tribes who had dared to challenge them.
However, with this sudden attack, all of the tribe’s members had instantly disappeared into thin air.
The deep-sea overlord focused his vision: under the golden light there was a figure in white robes holding a longsword in one hand. Despite the dark surroundings of the Deep Sea, the tyrant could make out that the figure belonged to a human.
A real living human, and not a human transformation adopted by another deep-sea monster.
Instantly, the overlord remembered a terrifying rumor.
Though there was little civilization within the deep sea, the existence of a deep-sea overlord would mean the ability to build a deep-sea kingdom. Even if instead of a kingdom, to be precise it was more akin to sub-clans which served the main clan.
The real mark of civilization in the Deep Sea, one that held formidable power, was the Jiao Dragon Palace.
However, communications had not been not cut off between the clans and the Jiao Dragon Palace. Creatures who had attained the top level as deep-sea overlords were able to communicate with other overlords. They exchanged information in the form of important updates and rumors.
As the deep-sea overlords were intellectual lifeforms, they would find loneliness unbearable thus they established numerous communication channels.
The latest news on these channels was the biggest one yet: the destruction of the Jiao Dragon Palace. Everyone in the palace, from the generals to soldiers, had been slaughtered.
Though this was old news from months ago, taking into account the sheer land ma.s.s of the Tempest Ocean Realm and the speed of information exchange between the deep-sea overlords, the news remained fresh to them.
Apart from this, there were rumors that there was something in the deep sea that had been hunting down the deep-sea overlords.
One after another, they were losing their lives.
Though he had hardly taken the news to heart. The slaughtering of deep-sea overlords was something they had never heard of, for it had always been the deep-sea overlords who were the ones carrying out the slaughtering.
His main concern was the rapid expansion of the Jiao Dragon Palace. In recent years there had been a consistent stream of news about deep-sea overlords subjugating others while under the rule of the Jiao Dragon Palace. Such news never ceased to agitate him.
Another concern was the Jiao Dragon King of the Jiao Dragon Palace. The king had gone on a mad rampage across the ocean to seek out the individual who had ransacked the palace and murdered its descendants.
As he focused on the human before him, a thought occurred to him: could it be that this human was the rumored butcher of the deep-sea overlords?
“Human!”
The terrifying beast roared, but before he could complete his sentence, a pair of golden dragon claws grabbed him.
“Bam!”
Blood splattered everywhere. The Consolidation Realm beast had been torn into halves just like that.
Lu Xuan then discarded the body of the deep-sea overlord into the Sky Ocean Secret Realm and into the mouth of the waiting Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon.
With a bite, the creature swallowed half of the overlord’s body whole and let out a satisfied burp. It immediately chomped on the other half and swallowed that too. After it was done, the Deep Sea Poison Dragon laid down to digest the meal.
In the span of a few months, the Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon has swallowed close to a few hundred deep-sea overlords. Its Cultivation had been progressing at lightning speed. To be accurate, there was enough energy within to awaken and extract the Dragon bloodline within its body.
Additionally, Lu Xuan’s Dragon Orb of Guidance had provided Draconic Qi to a.s.sist the Cultivation process.
The Cultivation of the Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon had reached the peak of a Late-stage Consolidation Realm, and was only a step away from a true Consolidation Realm beast at its peak.
If he kept up this pace, he would have been able to break through to the peak of the Consolidation Realm without difficulty in just a year.
When the time came, the entire Tempest Ocean Realm would welcome the fourth powerful beast of the peak Consolidation Realm. And this fourth beast would be under Lu Xuan’s control.
Then, he would have the resources and power to have solidify his position in the Tempest Ocean Realm.
The creature’s improvements were definitely faster than that of Lu Xuan’s. Regardless, when Lu Xuan had stepped into the peak of the Consolidation Realm, it would mean a peak in his battle skills as well.
The Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon would remain beneath him in terms of power.
In these few months, Lu Xuan has mastered the Late-stage Consolidation Realm, and he was working his way to another breakthrough.
Nevertheless, he would emerge more powerful than the Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon.
“It is not yet fast enough, I have to hasten this fool’s Cultivation speed,” Lu Xuan thought to himself. He did want to lose out on his own potential while in pursuit of the creature’s.
Nurturing the potential of the Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon was the only way to obtain the power to secure a good standing in the Tempest Ocean Realm in this short frame of time.
It was a great coincidence, that the Deep Sea Poison Jiao Dragon was able to swallow endlessly, where it could continuously grow and expand its potential as long as it constantly devoured a large amount of energy, and digestive problems were never a concern.
Cultivation for Dragons revolved around the repeated purification of their own blood. Each time, it would further unearth and awaken the bloodline within them, which would speed up the process to reach a new realm.
In the bloodline of the Dragons, there were countless generations of predecessors who too had continuously purified their bloodline and approached infinite power. The experience they gained in the process would be pa.s.sed down to their descendants.
In comparison to the Cultivation process of humans, they were not as likely to go through as much pain to acc.u.mulate experience.
This talent that was unique to the Dragon clans was incredibly enviable.
These thoughts gave Lu Xuan an extreme morale boost. He must raise the Deep Sea Poison Dragon to the peak of the Consolidation realm before his return to the Tempest Continent.
However, what was most important now, was that while Lu Xuan had been eliminating deep-sea overlords left and right, the Jiao Dragon King had been tracking Lu Xuan down. The Jiao Dragon King must have noticed the pattern in the frequent events.
It might have noticed that both incidents had been caused by the same individual and intensified its search for Lu Xuan.
If Lu Xuan were to let the Jiao Dragon King continue its search, he would be found out.
Lu Xuan paused his thoughts and his eyes glowed with determination. The light of a portal appeared beneath his feet and he returned to his journey for more deep-sea overlords.
Hours after Lu Xuan had departed, a humongous creature arrived at the scene. Sensing its surroundings, it realized another deep-sea overlord had been slain.
All that was reflected on the ferocious face of the giant creature was a murderous intent.
