Stronger from Earth

Chapter 201 200: Land Sunken, Sea Boiling

The Dominator is a Dragon species, naturally strong and powerful, with a vast future ahead, generally not something living beings provoke.

But the Dragon species is full of treasures, coveted by humans; if it appears in the range of human cultivators' activities, it often won't be spared.

A powerful cultivator in a good mood might throw it into the wilderness, unwilling to deal with it. Slightly worse treatment is using it as a Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast, and even worse is enslavement.

Unluckily, it could be kept captive, its blood extracted for alchemy and medicine, and eventually killed and eaten. This happens rarely because there are many Demon Saints among the demons on the Mother Star comparable to True Immortals, making it reckless unless a big mistake is made, leaving the Demon Race without argument.

Wang Xuan wandered in the mountains, soon reaching a giant pool, a natural pond formed over time, with sturdy aquatic animals within.

Stirring the water's surface, ripples spread, Wang Xuan glanced around to find it calm, with no traces of animals around.

He knew it was because there were some fierce beasts in the water, making land animals scarce; if there's a choice, they'd avoid this place.

Back then, he frequently encountered danger here, chased by water beasts, embarrassing memories upon recollection.

A shadow moved beneath the water, sensing the ripples, silently approached Wang Xuan, then suddenly leaped two meters away.

A giant salamander opened its bloody maw, biting at Wang Xuan, its powerful tail snapping with lightning speed.

Even if a tiger got bitten, dragged underwater, it wouldn't survive.

"You're bold, but I was waiting for you." Wang Xuan smiled slightly, grabbing the salamander's mouth with five fingers to hook and hold its row of teeth.

As for the salamander's impact, it didn't make him step back at all. With a hand lift, the fierce beast's three to four-meter-long body was thrown onto the shore, this amphibious creature viciously seeking to attack Wang Xuan, but utterly suppressed.

Despite its desperate struggle, it was completely futile.

Stepping on the salamander, Gang Qi transformed into a cage to imprison it, Wang Xuan's Mental Power radiated, small turtles crawled out one by one from the mud in the shallow water, the small ones dish-sized, the old ones basin-sized, around eighty to ninety pounds.

This scene resembled Jiang Taigong fishing, willing prey taking the bait, and these turtles were likewise willingly caught.

"You guys made things difficult for me multiple times in the past. Now it's my turn for revenge. I won't torture you, just add you to the New Year dishes."

This giant salamander was a fierce beast, the turtles mere fierce beast level, dangerous to ordinary people but their flesh vastly nourishing.

Dragging the salamander and carrying ten or so turtles, Wang Xuan walked home without further actions.

He could determine the Dominator was near the pool, but not in the same space, requiring a specific time and method to enter.

Now wasn't a good time; at least until certain that no one roamed Dragon Mountain, he wouldn't expose the entrance or the method voluntarily.

The salamander and turtles out of the water were bound by Wang Xuan with Gang Qi ropes. In an era of abundant Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, they multiplied prolifically, with long lifespans, no longer protected animals.

In this era, few protected animals remained, the highest-level protected animals being humans.

Wang Xuan moved quickly; at a speed of several hundred kilometers per hour, no one in the village saw his figure clearly.

Tossing out a Celestial Treasure Rope, akin to the mythological Immortal Binding Rope, he pointed his finger to bind the prey, knock them out, and tossed them into his home's warehouse.

He glanced at a nearby small hill a few kilometers from his doorstep; it was intact when he returned, now snapped in half.

A starship flew clumsily overhead, Wang Xuan rubbed his forehead, seemed like his dad tried manual piloting; the outcome was evident.

Thankfully, the starship was sturdy, unharmed by such impacts, moreover, its surface was memory metal, restoring any scratches to their original state.

Many villagers curiously watched as the starship landed, gathered around, seeing Father Wang emerging, astonished.

"Wang Hai, whose ship is this? How did you come out of it?" The crowd was curious.

They thought a distinguished person had arrived at Wang Family Village, unexpectedly it was Wang Hai.

Seeing such a rare, precious ship, they'd seen on the news it's only affordable to a few nobles, of great value.

The Wang Family for eight generations produced no prominent figures; how did they come by such fortune?

"My son's!"

Such face-gaining affairs made Father Wang beam, experiencing the honor of son's success, enjoying Wang Xuan's brought reputation with no problem.

Learning the starship was Wang Xuan's private property, the crowd was dumbfounded, hearts filled with disbelief.

Before age twelve, Wang Xuan was undoubtedly formidable, but then fell into obscurity, no progress in cultivation, waste of innate bone.

For years, Wang Xuan's temperament greatly changed, from past high-spirits and vigor to later warmth and approachability, seeming like a different person.

Some even speculated Wang Xuan had a personality disorder.

Yet knowing Wang Xuan now soared to such heights, owning a private starship, the future possibilities were evident.

Whether believed or not, believed or not, it was already a fact; no one would gossip about Wang Xuan's past anymore.

"Old Wang, you have a good son!"

"Yes, now your Old Wang Family has indeed produced a remarkable figure, even your ancestral graves are smoking with pride!"

"When your son Wang Xuan was born, he wasn't an ordinary person, and now it seems that's true!"

...

The villagers' words of compliment made Father Wang beam with joy. Although he knew these were just flattery, hearing it from these people made it sound pleasant to his ears.

The more they admired and envied, the happier Wang Hai became!

"My son, Wang Hai's son, how could he not be outstanding?" Father Wang said.

As for the villagers inquiring about Wang Xuan's news, Father Wang would just give a vague idea, not explaining clearly, as long as they understood that Wang Xuan is very impressive now.

He knew well all the petty affairs in the village. Some people inevitably wanted to take advantage, even subtly suggesting if Wang Xuan could lend a "small help," or make some donations to the village.

Such matters needed to be prevented early; otherwise, helping could turn into a responsibility, and failing to do so would bring trouble. After all, human desires are endless.

Wang Xuan, naturally, couldn't escape the villagers' compliments. Even though he didn't like such noisy occasions, and felt he had no common language with them, considering their words as nonsense, he still exchanged pleasantries.

This is human nature, his hometown is here, his parents live here, and he still needs to maintain good neighborly relations.

Nearly an hour passed before these people dispersed.

Father Wang, whose mouth was nearly stiff from smiling, rubbed his cheeks and reminded, "Don't casually promise to help these people. Be careful of the proverb 'a favor of a loaf turns into hatred over a bushel,' for human greed knows no bounds."

Wang Xuan nodded, "Help in emergencies but not in poverty. Only if they truly have difficult circumstances should we consider, but such cases should be rare, as the Federation provides good welfare and benefits for the people of Mother Star."

In a time with no worries about food or clothing, where life is carefree, the people of Mother Star, besides having crisis awareness and cultivation pressure, are already very happy.

Wang Mother's dinner preparations were still just the ingredients ready, Lin Cheng and she were just surrounded by many village women earlier, curious about Lin Cheng, a beautiful woman with dazzling eyes and an exquisite figure.

These lively occurrences were something Wang Xuan had long anticipated. Returning home gloriously, perhaps it could be considered bringing honor to the ancestors?

"Tomorrow, go visit your grandfather, uncle, and uncle's homes, and bring some gifts, we mustn't neglect propriety," Father Wang said, and Wang Xuan nodded.

In a certain sea region off the eastern coast of Australia, two figures were tangled in mid-air, creating astounding waves of energy.

A Flood Dragon several thousand meters long coiled its body, its whiskers moving with the wind, its dragon claws and teeth sharp as divine weapons, confronting a creature with hundreds of golden eyes and a tail like a hammer and spike, standing upright.

This battle was observed by countless Immortals and Demon Immortals because this was the final battle of the Celestial Demon Realm. The Realm Gate linking to the Celestial Demon Realm had appeared half a year ago, and after efforts by the Demon Race forces, it had now entered the closing phase.

Seeing the hopeless Celestial Demon step onto Mother Star, engaging in battle with the Flood Dragon Demon King.

The dragon and beast roared and fought fiercely, the collision producing energy that illuminated a thousand miles around, creating whirlwinds that swept outward.

"Why do you, also being demons, join with humans to destroy my Celestial Demon Realm?" the exotic beast roared.

"Demons? All beings are demons, the Human Race is also demons, where is the boundary of bloodlines? Our conflict is merely the clash of civilizations, the collision of worlds.

No right or wrong, only life and death! You refuse to surrender, then die!"

The Flood Dragon's cold vertical pupils observed the dying struggle of the Otherworld Celestial Demon, striking mercilessly, smacking it down with a tail, instantly fracturing the beast and spilling blood.

Boom!

The exotic beast, a thousand meters tall, crashed onto a sea island, the entire island like being hit by a giant meteor, instantly exploding and sinking into the ocean.

Countless fragments flew, flying unknown distances; after the dust dissipated, the island had vanished without a trace, leaving only the vast sea water.

An island ten miles in circumference on Mother Star, existing for unknown tens of thousands of years, standing firm through both earthquakes and tsunamis, nurturing countless life forms.

Yet, just one collision made it directly sink into the sea, such a divine might is unimaginable.

The scene of land sinking, though shocking, also triggered a huge tsunami carrying immense energy, spreading rapidly outward, becoming hundreds of meters high in an instant.

The core area's seawater boiled, turbulent incessantly, while the periphery was a series of hundred-meter-high wave walls, like one giant bloody mouth after another, opening wide, swallowing everything.

Such a tsunami's power was immense, and its impact was beyond words.

The watching Immortals and Demon Immortals cooperated, spending considerable effort to suppress it, all to maintain the natural environment's stability on Mother Star.

"It's over!"

The Flood Dragon, several thousand meters long, coiled, strangled the exotic beast, shredding its head, extinguishing its Primordial Spirit, securing the final victory in this battle.

With flowing Dragon Blood, and at a young age stepping into the Heavenly level, becoming a Demon King, its prowess comparable to a Third Realm of Heavenly Immortal expert.

Killing an Otherworld Celestial Demon barely comparable to the Celestial Immortal Second Realm, the victory held no surprise whatsoever.

"From now on, the Celestial Demon Realm belongs to Earth Civilization! Belongs to our Dragon Race!" the Flood Dragon roared.
