Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

The proactive assistance of the three Nascent Soul cultivators greatly boosted the morale of Zhao Yu's side. Zhao Yu also held a grand banquet to welcome the three of them.

The next day, Wu Chen and the other two Nascent Soul cultivators took the initiative to strike, hunting the sea clan demon beasts on the island.

Once the three Nascent Soul cultivators made their move, the demon beasts that had landed on the island suffered heavy casualties. They also obtained a large quantity of Demon Beast Materials.

Beneath the sea.

A sinister light flashed in the eyes of the Green Snake King as he slowly said, "Black Jiao Emperor, Zhao Yu has the help of three more Nascent Soul cultivators. If we continue to wait, will more human cultivators come to assist them?"

"No! Of the three immortals of Spirit Light Island, only Wu Chen likes to slay demons and exorcise devils! The other two Nascent Soul cultivators would surely lack the will to fight if faced with our siege! These three are not to be feared!"

"Zhao Yu has just advanced to Nascent Soul, and he doesn't have many friends. Apart from the three immortals of Spirit Light Island, other human Nascent Soul cultivators will not risk themselves for him. Our opponent has always been Zhao Yu and his party alone!" said the Black Jiao Emperor coldly.

The Sea Dragon Sect's Palace was one of the overlord forces of the Blue Sky Sea's demon clans, occupying vast territories and owning many unique Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the seabed. They also developed considerable power on land to gather various kinds of intelligence for them.

"However, it's also time for those humans to witness our Sea Dragon Sect's power! Attack!"

At the command of the Black Jiao Emperor, the seas around the ruins of the Yellow Emperor Sect's continent churned, and an army composed of shrimp soldiers, crab generals, sea demon bugs, sea wolves, sea snakes, demon clams, demon sharks, demon whales, and other demon clans surfaced, landing on the continent and initiating an attack towards the core area.

The Black Jiao Emperor and the other fourteen Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation flew out from the sea and hovered in the sky, exuding the terrifying pressure of Fourth-Order Transformative Great Demons.

Cold Cloud True Monarch looked up at the fifteen Fourth-Order Transformative Great Demons in the sky, his eyes flashing with gravity, "The Sea Dragon Sect! It is indeed the Sea Dragon Sect! Damn it, we really shouldn't have gotten involved in these muddy waters! Fifteen Fourth-Order Transformative Great Demons, this is simply despairing!"

Wu Chen, looking up at the Fourth-Order Transformative Great Demons in the sky, with a trace of fervor in his eyes, said, "You two retreat first! I will stay behind! It's been a long time since I've slain a Fourth-Order Transformative Great Demon! My Flying Sword is almost dull!"

Cold Cloud True Monarch coldly said, "Brother, I'm not the kind of person who would abandon my own brother! If we retreat, we retreat together!"

Qin Nan Fairy smiled and said, "Big Brother, when we became sworn siblings, we spoke of sharing life and death. Though I am a woman, I am not one to break my promises!"

Wu Chen roared with laughter, "Good! Good! Good! In my life, the greatest fortune is having gotten the two of you as dear siblings! Later, the three of us will fight together. If it really becomes impossible, I will cover your retreat!"

Zhao Yu said, "Fifteen Great Demons of transformation are indeed powerful! But rest assured, if they come to launch a forceful attack, they'll only have a one-way path to death!"

Wu Chen laughed and said, "Old Zhao, I'll trust you this once!"

Wu Chen was open-hearted and enthusiastic. Zhao Yu had only interacted with him for two days before he changed how he addressed Zhao Yu, bringing their relationship even closer.

Cold Cloud True Monarch glanced at Zhao Yu, then turned his gaze to the fifteen Transformative Great Demons in the sky, staring fixedly at the Black Jiao Emperor with grave seriousness in his eyes.

The Palace Master of the Sea Dragon Sect, the Black Jiao Emperor, was a Fourth-Order Superior Transformative Great Demon and also the strongest among the Blue Sky Sea demon cultivators. His power could rival that of a great human cultivator, a terrifyingly strong being that Cold Cloud True Monarch had no desire to provoke.

However, both Cold Cloud True Monarch and Qin Nan Fairy had been saved by Wu Chen several times, and it was with Wu Chen's assistance that they obtained the resources to advance to Nascent Soul. Throughout his life, Wu Chen had helped countless people, yet only Cold Cloud True Monarch and Qin Nan Fairy continued to stay by his side, unfaltering, even after advancing to Nascent Soul.

The Black Jiao Emperor called out, "I am the Palace Master of the Sea Dragon Sect, the Black Jiao Emperor. Where is Zhao Yu, the City Lord of Heaven Departing Immortal City?"

A faint spiritual light shimmered, and Zhao Yu appeared at the edge of the Mountainous Great Array, saying, "I am Zhao Yu. Black Jiao Emperor, may I ask what important matter brings you here with such a grand display of force?"

The Black Jiao Emperor replied coldly, "Let's not beat around the bush, Zhao Yu. You killed the heir of my Jiao God Palace, Green Snake King, and then you killed my Jiao God Palace elder, General Lan, committing an unforgivable crime. If you surrender now, I will immediately order my people to retreat back to the sea!

But if you insist on resisting, I will destroy your Sky Departure Immortal City and slaughter every human on this island!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chen Daoist's eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent as he bitterly said, "Demons are demons! They all deserve to die!!"

As a child, Wu Chen Daoist's family was slaughtered by the demon clan. He was lucky to escape and became a disciple under a Loose Cultivator Golden Core, enduring countless hardships to eventually attain the Nascent Soul. He has since detested evil and would often roam around slaying demons and exorcising evil.

Zhao Yu said, "I am waiting for you inside the formation; I really want to see what abilities your Jiao God Palace has to break through the great array of my mountain gate!"

With a flash of Escape Light, Zhao Yu directly hid back inside the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array.

The Black Jiao Emperor said coldly, "Attack! Pass my decree, whoever breaks this array can freely slaughter the city!"

A series of shrill cries from various Demon Beasts rang out as a dense mass of Sea Clan Demon Beasts crawled out of the sea, making their way towards the core area of the Huangdi Sect ruins.

"Bring it on!"

Zhao Yu's eyes sparkled as he watched countless Sea Clan Demon Beasts surge in from all directions and he stimulated the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array.

Beams of Mountainous Profound Light shot out from the array, sweeping towards the countless Sea Clan Demon Beasts below.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Wherever the Mountainous Profound Light passed, countless Sea Clan Demon Beasts were crushed by the force, with their flesh and blood scattering across the land.

Zhao Yu had received the reserves of the Sea Dragon Sect, Sky Departure Immortal City, Feather Yang Sect, and Golden Spirit Palace – four major Nascent Soul level powers – and had a massive amount of Spirit Stones at his disposal. He had previously refrained from activating the Mountainous Profound Light because he did not want to waste Spirit Stones.

Countless Sea Clan Demon Beasts attacking were crushed upon hitting the Mountainous Profound Light as if they were courting death, with innumerable casualties.

"Follow me!"

With a fierce shout, the Black Jiao Emperor led fourteen Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation towards the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array.

A hint of gravity flashed in Zhao Yu's eyes, "They're coming!"

Those lower-ranked Demon Beasts could never break Zhao Yu's Mountainous Profound Light Great Array. But with the addition of those fifteen Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation, it was a different story.

The Jiao God Palace had been passed down through generations, surely possessing numerous rare treasures inside, and there must be Spirit Treasure level items among their palace-defending treasures.

As soon as the Black Jiao Emperor flew above the Barrier of the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately brandished a long spear emanating a green glow.

That green long spear, called the Wooden Jiao Town Mountain Spear, was forged from the Sky Dragon Wood, one of the top ten Spiritual Trees in this world.

It was further refined and blessed by generations of Wooden Jiao Kings from the Jiao God Palace, eventually becoming a Low-grade Spirit Treasure of the Jiao God Palace imbued with a formidable power, specifically designed to break various Wood System Divine Skills.
