Chapter 149: Ancient Man-Eating Fish

  Chapter 149: The Ancient Man-Eating Fish (Second Update)

  "Leaf Shidi, don't be impulsive for now. If Yuan Hengyue is going to force us, we'll go up together." At the same time as transmitting his true energy voice to Ye Chen, Luo Hanshan also notified Zhu Mei and Xu Jing, telling them to prepare for a fierce battle. In his heart, he had made up his mind that even if it cost him his life, he would make Yuan Hengyue see blood.

  Zhu Mei and Xu Jing nodded secretly, their true energy accumulating momentum waiting to be released. As soon as Yuan Hengyue made a move, they would launch a thunderous attack.

  The scene fell silent, and a terrible atmosphere spread out.

  Led by Jiū Wú Xuě, the high-ranking masters of the Submerged Dragon List watched this scene with interest. Compared to other sects, Liú Yún Zōng was weak and small, but they were quite united. It seemed that they wanted to fight to the death with Yuán Héng, but unfortunately, sometimes fighting to the death didn't mean being useful. In the face of absolute strength, everything else was just an illusion.

  Liu Wuxiang and Ji Xueyan couldn't bear it in their hearts, so they looked at Zhuang Fei.

  Zhuang Fei said lightly: "Tianmeng Ancient Land is a place where people are eaten, just protect yourself and don't bother with other things."

  "What Master Brother said is right, other people's business has nothing to do with us, they deserved to die."

  "Looking for death by provoking Yuan Hongying."

  The remaining few core disciples of Feicui Valley were delighted by their misfortune.

  Zi Yang Zong's direction, Ouyang Ming excitedly said: "Eldest brother, it seems that the Liu Yun Zong group doesn't need us to take action, Yuan Heng can kill them all by himself."

  Ou Yang Lie said: "Heaven has destined them for annihilation, it's good, we can spare ourselves the trouble of thinking of ways to kill them, and wholeheartedly enter the Tian Meng War Temple."

  "Heh heh, after Tian Meng Ancient Land closes and everyone leaves, the faces of those old guys from Liu Yun Sect will definitely be very colorful."

  Others also started discussing it.

  "These four are done for, who doesn't know that Killer Hawk is ruthless and merciless."

  "Originally, only one person needed to die, but the other three were impulsive."

  "I hope the killer eagles finish them off and don't come looking for us, or else. Let's get out of here first, we can come back after the colorful light pillar dissipates."

  "Junior brother, you want to die but we don't. The killer eagle sees us running and won't kill us? That's strange."

  The crowd's gossip did not distract Ye Chen, his eyes were sharp and the sharp aura on his body had been accumulated to its peak, merging with his sword intent, restrained and not released.

  "You have guts, indeed you have guts. However, having big guts isn't always a good thing. Today, all of you will die. I, Huang Ying, never leave any survivors."

  Tweet!

  Yuán Héng's body shook. The dark cyan True Qi outside his body transformed into a majestic eagle spreading its wings, ready to take flight. The eagle let out a long cry, its killing intent overflowing, causing the air to ripple and churn like water waves, becoming incredibly viscous.

  "Look, Yuan Heng is going to take action."

  "Huh? That little guy seems to be about to make a killer move too."

  Everyone's face showed surprise, in their line of sight, Ye Chen's right hand was placed on the hilt of his sword, the sword had not left its scabbard, but its sharpness was already apparent, the surrounding grass and trees were cut off at the waist, as if injured by an invisible sword aura.

  With a sneer, Yuan Heng was about to make his move, and the true energy of the Golden Eagle on his body had already prepared for a flying pounce. But just at this moment, the seven-colored light column underwent a strange change.

  Only a dozen or so meters thick, the seven-colored light pillar quickly thinned out, and in just two blinks of an eye, it was already only a hundred meters thick, standing upright in the center of the lake.

  "The Extinction God's light has disappeared, hurry in."

  Some disciples of the sect couldn't wait. One arrow step rushed out, his body leaped high, with a splash, and darted into the lake like an arrow.

  Others seeing no danger this time, hot-blooded and impulsive, without saying a word, jumped into the water with ease.

  Wa wa wa wa wa...

  The sound of splashing water continued unabated. When I opened my eyes again, only a few dozen scattered disciples from the sect remained by the lake.

  "Let's go down."

  On the other side, Zhuang Fei also led the disciples of Feicui Valley into the water.

  Yuán Héng's face changed several times, and he had two options: one was to let Ye Chen and the others go and dive in immediately, and the other was to kill them before diving in. The latter might delay some time. The sharp aura on Ye Chen's body was extremely fierce, and it was unrealistic to solve him and his companions within one or two moves.

  "Consider yourselves lucky, I hope not to meet you in the Tian Meng War Temple, humph." After some thought, Yuan Heng chose the first option. The Tian Meng War Temple was full of mysteries, he feared that if he delayed, many changes would occur. Turning around, Yuan Heng didn't scatter his true energy, but instead directly flew into the lake on the back of the Xiong Ying eagle.

  Several people let out a slight sigh of relief on the spot.

  "It's a good thing that the colorful light pillar dissipated in time." Luo Hanshan's clothes were already soaked with cold sweat, and he looked up at the empty lake shore.

  Zhu Mei nodded, "Although the original Hawk's character was extremely despicable, there was no doubt that his strength was terrifying, especially the aura of killing thousands of people on his body, as if it made people feel like they were in hell, with corpses and blood everywhere."

  "Let's go too!" Among the four, Ye Chen was undoubtedly the calmest. He had already prepared for a bloody battle earlier. Of course, in terms of strength, he still fell short of Yuan Heng by a lot. He was about the same as Lin Yue, who ranked 70th on the previous year's Dragon List. If he used his Heart Sword, he could barely beat Lin Yue. However, Yuan Heng was not Lin Yue - he was at least three points stronger than Lin Yue and ranked 59th. Relying solely on his late-stage True Essence Realm cultivation and sword intent, it would be extremely difficult for him to take on Yuan Heng.

  So if this war breaks out, there are only two outcomes: either Yedu dies and Yuanheng is seriously injured, or both sides perish together, with no winner.

  No matter which ending, Ye Chen didn't like it.

  Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!

  Water splashed everywhere, and the four of them dove into the bottom of the lake, leaving only an empty lakeside.

  ——

  "What a huge pressure."

  As soon as they entered the water, everyone felt their protective true energy tighten and contract inward.

  The leaves rustled, stirring the soul's energy, spreading in all directions. The water in the lake was not purely transparent, but also carried seven colors, as if it were a seven-colored crystal, with a density higher than that of water.

  "This is not ordinary water, everyone be careful."

  Yè chén tí xǐng tāmen.

  English Translation: Ye Chen reminded them.

  As the depth of the dive increases, so does the pressure of the lake water.

  When they reached a depth of over 100 meters, the protective true energy that was originally three feet away from their skin shrank in a big circle, leaving only two feet of distance. In addition to this, the huge pressure brought about huge resistance, and the speed of diving had slowed down to an unbearable degree.

  Suddenly——

  Blood and water gushed up from below.

  "Isn't there a massacre going on down there? Logically speaking, the distance to the Tianmeng War Temple shouldn't be far, why waste time on massacring." Ye Chen furrowed his brow, feeling that something was off.

  Splendid!

  Silent and soundless, Ye Chen's protective true energy was bitten through by something, water rushed in, and he was washed away dozens of meters away.

  "Brother Ye!"

  Luohan Mountain saw clearly, the one that pierced through Yecun's protective true energy was a strange fish. The strange fish had a body like an arrow, about five feet long, with serrated teeth in its mouth, shining with cold light. The speed of the strange fish was too fast, he had just discovered it, and Yecun's protective true energy was pierced through, unable to defend against it.

  Bang!

  Xu Jing was the first to make a move, with two rings of flame halos condensing at the back of her head. Even in the water, they still shone brightly, increasing her combat strength. She punched the monster fish's abdomen with great force.

  The strange fish's mouth was overflowing with a large amount of fresh blood, and after swimming for over ten meters, it stopped moving.

  Dozens of meters away, Ye Chen suppressed the boiling blood and qi in his heart, secretly shocked. This fish's teeth were too sharp! The protective true energy didn't have much effect at all, one bite and it was broken through. Fortunately, he had cultivated the Diamond Body, or else he wouldn't have just been washed away by the water like that.

  He quickly swam past and said, "I'm fine!"

  Lu Hanshan's face turned gloomy as he said, "If I'm not mistaken, these strange fish are ancient man-eating fish. Their sharp teeth can snap through most metals, making them ten times more ferocious than the man-eating fish of today."

  Zhu Mei said: "Ye Shidi, the level of your cultivation technique is too low, I'm afraid it can't withstand the attack of the ancient man-eating fish. Why don't you come to our side?"

  "That's right, we're all cultivating low-level earth-grade techniques, enough to withstand the siege of two or three ancient man-eating fish." Luo Hanshan only then remembered that Ye Chen was still cultivating a top-tier human-grade technique, Pure and True Qi, which might not be inferior to low-level earth-grade techniques in terms of attack power, but its defense was far weaker, and its true qi was not as thick as theirs, making him the weakest among everyone.

  Ye Chen shook his head, "Just now I was distracted by the blood water below and didn't notice the sneak attack of the ancient man-eating fish. Next time I'll be more careful."

  Having suffered this loss, Ye Chen did not dare to be careless. He dispersed his spiritual energy in all directions for dozens of meters. As soon as there was any movement, he could sense it.

  The four continued to dive down, and as the water pressure increased, more ancient cannibal fish appeared, from one or two at first, to small groups.

  "Cut!"

  As if eyes had grown on his back, Ye Chen turned around and struck out with a single sword.

  Hmph!

  The water flow was cut off, a large sword aura flashed by.

  Next moment!

  A small school of ancient carnivorous fish split in two, blood and water spreading everywhere, making it impossible for the naked eye to see anything.

  Further down, a conspiracy is being born.

  "You few want to die, dare to block me." The 69th ranked Hong Qianjun from the previous Hidden Dragon Ranking revealed a murderous intent, his voice spreading out with his aura.

  Ouyang Ming swallowed his saliva, "Hong Qianjun, in my Ziyang Sect, there is an inner sect elder who is a member of your Hong family branch. This time I'm looking for you to discuss a business deal."

  Hong Qianjun's killing intent did not decrease, and he coldly said, "What business."

  "Help us kill someone."

  "Joke, what kind of thing are you guys? You want me to help you kill someone. Believe it or not, I can kill you all right now." Three-tenths of Hong Qianjun's words were true and seven-tenths were false, intended to scare the other party into giving more blood. As for killing people, it was a simple matter that didn't take much time, but it depended on whether the other party gave him satisfactory compensation.

  Ouyang Lie, the eldest disciple of the Zi Yang Sect, said calmly: "After the matter is settled, I'll give you 50,000 pieces of low-grade spirit stones."

  "Hmph, you're trying to get rid of me? Ten million yuan for the hit, two million yuan for wasting my time - not a single block less will do. Otherwise, I'll kill you all right now."

  "Alright, as you wish." Ouyang Ming's heart was bleeding. 1.2 million low-grade spirit stones were equivalent to 480 million taels of gold. If he had a choice, he would rather give the other party 800 million taels of gold. Because low-grade spirit stones were scarce at auctions and wouldn't appear in large quantities. This time, the inner sect elder agreed to give him 1 million low-grade spirit stones, and the extra 200,000 could only be made up by himself and his brother.

  "Heh heh, who's going to be killed? Also, warning you guys, don't even think about denying it afterwards. We, the Re Yue Men, won't suffer in silence."

  Ouyang Ming said calmly: "Ye Chen!"
