Chapter 458 - 448: Fierce Battle in the Sea
Huang Yi and the Sea Dragon Emperor didn’t know that, on the other side, another peerless powerhouse was swiftly flying towards the Giant General, carrying another person with them.
This peerless powerhouse was completely naked, without any clothes, his private parts shrouded only by a mass of dark qi, while the rest of his body was covered in knotted muscles, bursting with strength. He left the impression of a primitive man who had walked out of prehistoric times, with an ancient air, consuming raw flesh and blood, completely unassociated with civilization.
The person being carried was a player who looked like a warrior, in his twenties, with a mane of white hair dancing in the wind, creating an ethereal feeling.
If Huang Yi had been there, he would have recognized these two individuals; the peerless powerhouse was none other than the Fallen Messenger, while the player was Unbeaten.
The two parties were rapidly closing in on each other.
...
The Sea Dragon Emperor was a Celestial Realm Expert, and his speed far exceeded that of the Dragon Fang Battleship, carrying Huang Yi as swift as Rapid Lightning through the water. They were surrounded by a transparent shield that automatically repelled the surrounding seawater without any resistance. The scenery around them flashed by in streaks of light.
After over two hours, the Sea Dragon Emperor stopped with Huang Yi.
At that moment, Huang Yi saw from a distance that the sea in front of them was chaotic, as if something was stirring on the ocean floor, causing the water to swirl, giving a feeling of trepidation from afar.
The next moment, Huang Yi’s forehead writhed, and he opened The Third Eye. This eye had exceptionally strong vision, piercing through the endless chaotic waters, and finally, he could see clearly what was beneath.
There on the deep sea floor, a colossal figure walked, its strides so large that each step stirred countless sediments from the ocean bed, causing turmoil for fish and shrimp, all of which were drawn to its body, becoming a part of it, growing ever larger like a snowball.
That must be the weakened Giant General! Even in a weakened state, it was still terrifying!
"The Giant General’s current strength is almost on par with Advanced Holy Domain Experts, but with such a large body, it’s much more difficult to deal with than ordinary Advanced Holy Domain Experts. It will take me some effort to capture it. Stay here and don’t go anywhere. This shield is a treasure I personally crafted—the Dragon Emperor Water Shield—its concealment in water is incredibly strong, so even Celestial Realm Experts would hardly be able to see through it. If you need anything, you can always use this to talk to me," said the Sea Dragon Emperor, after which he took out a conch and tossed it to Huang Yi, and then dashed towards the ocean floor alone, his Dragon Robe billowing as if a golden mountain was pressing down.
Clutching the conch tightly, Huang Yi patiently stayed inside the Dragon Emperor Water Shield, using The Third Eye to observe what was happening on the ocean floor.
The Sea Dragon Emperor didn’t bother with finesse and directly crushed downwards with his immense strength, his Brute Force colliding with the Giant General!
His body, compared to the Giant General’s, was utterly negligible, but with that collision, the Giant General was knocked away like a kite, blasted from the seafloor up through the water’s surface, into the sky a great distance before crashing back into the ocean again, throwing up heaven-high waves that swept in all directions, devouring everything like a scene from the End of the World.
Despite such a tremendous Attack, the Giant General seemed unscathed; the Sea Dragon Emperor’s Attack was weakened by the mud that had accumulated on its body. However, a fair amount of that mud was also shaken off, making its body slightly smaller.
Soon, the water that was shaken up hit Huang Yi’s Dragon Emperor Water Shield; the shield proved to be miraculous, having sustained no issues whatsoever against such impact and remained stable.
Watching the turbulent water outside the shield from close range, Huang Yi couldn’t help but feel slightly shaken. A battle of this level was truly earth-shattering; even any random Attack was far more than he could endure—if not for the shield, the aftershocks alone would have killed him by now.
The subsequent battle was essentially a one-man show by the Sea Dragon Emperor. As a Celestial Realm Expert, the Giant General could only take hits and was unable to mount any effective resistance. It was repeatedly knocked away, only to fall back into the ocean again and again, generating wave after wave that seemed to boil the sea.
With each Attack from the Sea Dragon Emperor, the materials adhering to the Giant General were shaken off bit by bit. As the fight went on, the Giant General’s body became smaller, and the damage it sustained grew more severe.
Ten minutes passed, and the Giant General’s body had significantly shrunk, down to about one percent of its original size. The accumulated material on its body had mostly been knocked off, finally revealing its true form.
"Hm?" Just then, Huang Yi suddenly noticed something unusual in his storage ring, as if something inside was reacting!
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he immediately opened it to check.
In a corner of the storage ring, a dark stone was now emitting a dazzling blood light, growing more and more intense, appearing incredibly eerie!
"Induction Stone!" Seeing the stone, Huang Yi was slightly startled!
This stone was precisely the one the Fallen Messenger had given to him during his time in the Abyss to avoid another assassination attempt by Man Tian on Huang Yi. By giving him the Induction Stone, he could summon the Fallen Messenger to his aid.
Now, the Induction Stone started glowing on its own, and the blood-red light grew increasingly bright!
In almost an instant, Huang Yi guessed something terrifying—the Fallen Messenger was rushing towards him!
As one of the Celestial Realm Experts, Huang Yi had seen the Fallen Messenger’s power firsthand, easily repelling Man Tian, also a Celestial Realm Expert, in a matter of moments. With the Fallen Messenger’s arrival, it would become very challenging for the Sea Dragon Emperor to destroy the Giant General!
With this in mind, Huang Yi immediately put the conch the Sea Dragon Emperor had given him to his lips and urgently said, "Sea Dragon Emperor, a Fallen Messenger might be on his way. He’s rapidly approaching."
The Sea Dragon Emperor, who was engaged in combat with the Giant General, had Huang Yi’s words suddenly resonate in his ear, causing his majestic body to shudder slightly as he ceased his attacks.
His eyes filled with solemnity, he turned his massive head southward, his sharp gaze seemingly piercing through layers of space to catch sight of something distant.
Before long, a black comet appeared on the horizon, tearing through the air with a long fiery tail, plummeting towards them!
Huang Yi’s Third Eye made out this comet—it was none other than the Fallen Messenger, rushing through the sky!
However, to his surprise, the Fallen Messenger had brought along someone else—it was Unbeaten, who had joined The Seven Archdemons!
"Who are you?" Unfamiliar with the outside world, the Fallen Messenger didn’t recognize the Sea Dragon Emperor and bluntly inquired. Its tone was sharp, clearly noticing the Giant General’s weakening condition after being significantly subdued by the Sea Dragon Emperor’s assaults.
"I am the master of these seas, the Sea Dragon Emperor. This Giant General caused unrest in my domain; naturally, I had to discipline it," the Sea Dragon Emperor said indifferently, hands behind his back. Flapping grandly, his golden Dragon Robe and the golden Scepter in his hand, bathed in moonlight, endowed him with the air of an Emperor.
The Fallen Messenger’s face tensed up slightly at the sight of the Sea Dragon Emperor, evidently perceiving him as an expert of a similar level to itself. Nevertheless, undaunted, it sneered at the Sea Dragon Emperor, "You dare obstruct the will of the King, that’s a capital offense. I want to see what qualifies you to speak such words!"
After finishing his speech, he turned to look at Unbeaten, issuing a command, "The Giant General is gravely wounded and will be easy to control. Just let that whip absorb enough Giant General’s Blood mixed with your own, and you’ll be able to control the Giant General. I’ll deal with the Sea Dragon Emperor; you take control of the Giant General!" With that said, the Fallen Messenger immediately tossed Unbeaten into the waters below, then took the lead in attacking the Sea Dragon Emperor.
The Sea Dragon Emperor paid no mind to the inconsequential Unbeaten and focused solely on clashing with the Fallen Messenger.
"Boom!" The encounter between the Sea Dragon Emperor and the Fallen Messenger was even more spectacular than the previous fight with the Giant General! Just the first blow scattered countless waves into the sky, revealing the seabed’s sludge!
Falling back from the sky, the seawater then poured down once more, forming a massive tsunami that surged in all directions!
Unaffected, Unbeaten seemed to have some kind of life-preserving treasure given by the Fallen Messenger, allowing him to survive unscathed amid these violent shockwaves. Ignoring the battle between the Sea Dragon Emperor and the Fallen Messenger, he used some treasure to walk on water and raced towards the Giant General’s location, quickly vanishing into the horizon.
Witnessing this scene, Huang Yi’s mind stirred, and he swiftly followed suit. The Dragon Emperor Water Shield moved with him, effectively concealing his body, unnoticed by both the Fallen Messenger and Unbeaten.
As he walked, he brought the conch to his lips and whispered to the Sea Dragon Emperor, "Sea Dragon Emperor, please lure the Fallen Messenger away, I will stop that person from controlling the Giant General!"
The Sea Dragon Emperor, hearing Huang Yi’s secret message, immediately started to intentionally draw the Fallen Messenger towards the horizon. The two supreme experts fought back and forth, quickly moving to a distance, disappearing from view. The direction of their battle echoed faintly with the sounds of tumult.
Gradually, Huang Yi followed Unbeaten to the area where the Giant General lay.
By that time, the Giant General was gravely injured and floating on the sea’s surface like a dead fish. However, its self-healing ability was astonishingly potent; waters from all around continuously carried silt and rubble that clung to its body, mending its wounds and causing its form to swell increasingly larger once more.
The next moment, Unbeaten approached the Giant General and flipped his palm, revealing a whip.
Not far behind Unbeaten, concealed within the Dragon Emperor Water Shield, Huang Yi watched calmly, like a hunter lying in wait, ready to strike at any moment. (To be continued.
