Capítulo 1115: Chapter 1101: Someone Has to Pay the Price (Happy Lantern Festival)
“Jie Tianhe, if you’re a man, fight me for three hundred rounds!”
The roar of the Great Saint of Jinghai was like a trumpet of charge, immediately spurring the martial artists on the side of Heavenly Wing Island into action.
“I’ve long heard of Tower Chief Ou’s unrivaled gold blade, let me experience it today!” The Great Sage of the Overturning Sea also stepped forward, charging towards the third Tower Chief Ou of Stars Tower!
“Yang Ben, weren’t you acting all mighty? Why aren’t you so spirited now?” The Sea-Breaking Great Saint laughed triumphantly, locking on Yang Ben and rushed forward.
At the same moment, the Island Lord of Black Fiend Island, Hei Tian, sneered at Grand Island Lord Yin Yi of Yin Yang Island, sending a jet-black brilliance crashing towards Yin Yi.
The earth-shattering battle cries spread at that instant, as the over 2500 mid to late-stage Establishment Realm martial artists from Heavenly Wing Island charged towards the remaining martial artists of Yin Yang Island and Stars Tower.
Boom!
Suddenly, the surface of the sea below surged up with thousand-meter-high waves, each wave hiding a massive mid to late-stage Spirit Tier Sea Beast.
As they soared with the waves, all kinds of innate abilities blasted towards the Dragon Alliance and Stars Tower allied army.
Startled, some of the low-flying martial artists of the allied army quickly ascended, and two unlucky ones, perhaps distracted or intimidated by the counterattack from Heavenly Wing Island, were caught off guard. One was swallowed whole by a giant whale.
Another had its head bitten off by a 500-meter-long sword-fish shark, like one swatting a mosquito.
At that moment, several thousand sea monsters were rising with the waves, just a small portion of the sea monsters gathered from around Heavenly Wing Island.
More sea monsters lurked shadowily with the waves, their greedy eyes fixed on the martial artists in the sky, waiting for their chance to strike.
This massive number of sea monsters was the true confidence of the Heavenly Wing Island side.
If anything goes wrong, they could dive into the sea for their lives; who would dare pursue them underwater?
Even the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, with the protection of Black Dragon Pressure, might hesitate to follow.
Among the sea monsters triggered by the Sky Wing Three Saints, many were their kin. With their augmentation and control, they could greatly reduce the influence of the Black Dragon Pressure.
All of this happened in that instant.
And in that instant, the leaders of the Dragon Alliance and Stars Tower allied army quickly calculated their thoughts.
Known as Fox Star, Ou’s face turned livid as he roared, “Retreat, retreat quickly, run as fast as you can!”
Although shouting out orders to retreat, Ou did not retreat but advanced. Instantly, a faint golden blade light appeared before him, radiating countless blade lights covering his front sky.
The Overturning Sea Command Flag of Overturning Sea, rushing in, caused the spiritual power in the void to vibrate violently, shattering countless golden blade lights in the intense tremor.
However, an unfortunate Fifth Stage Establishment king, perhaps too eager for merit, rushed into Ou’s blade light range and was torn into a mass of blood mist in an instant.
“Retreat, forces of Yin Yang Island, withdraw immediately!”
Almost simultaneously with Ou’s shout, Yin Yi and Yang Ben roared together.
But unlike Ou, Yin Yi and Yang Ben showed no concern for buying time for their subordinates. After a shout, they split into yin and yang streams of light, not caring for their subordinates, and fled first.
“Yang Ben, where are you running to? You’ve delivered such a grand gift to our Heavenly Wing Island today, you’re not going anywhere without a fight!” In an instant, tendrils of black silk-like brilliance entangled Yang Ben.
Compared to the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, the Island Lord of Black Fiend Island, Hei Tian, was even more ruthless. With a flick of his finger, a black energy sphere exploded in front of Yin Yi, blocking him for a moment, and entangled him instantly.
The roars of the Great Saint of Jinghai and dragon roars sounded simultaneously, but this confrontation lasted only a moment before the dragon roars dissipated. Jie Tianhe, Leader of the Dragon Alliance, involuntarily let out a dull groan, flying backward with blood already trickling from the corner of his mouth.
“Hahaha, Jie Tianhe, did you truly think our Heavenly Wing Island had no one to challenge you? Coming to our Heavenly Wing Island to cause trouble while badly injured, today you’ll stay here forever!” The Great Saint of Jinghai’s laughter echoed, causing Yang Ben and Yin Yi, who were in desperate battle, to curse Jie Tianhe for setting them up.
They had originally hoped that after severely wounding the Great Saint of Jinghai, Jie Tianhe would come back to assist them. Though not enough to turn the battle, it would at least reduce their losses.
Unexpectedly, the Jie Tianhe they placed their hopes on came wounded, seriously injured, and was forced back by the Great Saint of Jinghai in one move.
However, even if they were furious at this moment, they had no time for further thought. The attacks of the Sea-Breaking Great Saint and Hei Tian pressed on relentlessly, and their subordinates’ screams kept distracting them.
No way around it; the Island Master of Anning Island, Wu Shu, and the Island Master of Bai Cong Island, Yang Min, though only half-step Dao, compared to those mid to late-stage Establishment Realm martial artists, were like tigers among wolves, unstoppable.
At this moment, Jie Tianhe glared venomously at Ye Zhen, as the injuries he suffered had been forced by Ye Zhen.
He lost half of his physical body directly. Though he consumed countless pills to restore his body over the past few days, he was still severely weakened, his essence damaged, and it would take at least one to two years to recover.
This was the cause of his injury from the Great Saint of Jinghai in a single encounter.
As he retreated, Jie Tianhe whistled sharply, sending out a series of strange musical notes.
Roar!
A dragon’s roar, as fierce as the howling of a Demon Beast, suddenly reverberated from the distant void. A Two-Horned Flood Dragon abruptly emerged from the distant void, and Jie Tianhe took advantage of the moment to scatter a multitude of talisman scrolls, blocking Great Saint of Jinghai for a moment, and then darted onto the Flood Dragon like a beam of light.
The dragon raised its head, let out a long whine, and vanished in an instant.
At the same moment, the mid-grade soul artifact-level gold blade floating in front of Ou Tu’s chest suddenly erupted with blinding radiance, becoming as intense as the sun in an instant.
As the light of the blade poured down like a celestial river towards Great Sage of the Overturning Sea, Ou Tu himself retreated swiftly.
With just this brief moment’s obstruction, two-thirds of the martial artists from Stars Tower had already retreated, and Ou Tu also took the opportunity to withdraw.
As the blade light dimmed, the gold blade suddenly shot like a meteor in the direction where Ou Tu retreated.
In an instant, nearly two hundred martial artists from Stars Tower, who hadn’t managed to retreat, were besieged and fell with tragic cries.
As Ou Tu quickly distanced himself, a look of pain flashed across his face. According to his original plan, all five hundred elites of Stars Tower should have retreated safely.
Unexpectedly, Jie Tianhe withdrew after just one move, leaving him in a bind.
If he didn’t retreat now, by the time Great Saint of Jinghai turned around, he wouldn’t be able to leave.
With no other choice, he could only retreat early.
“How could they betray us, is it possible?” While retreating, Ou Tu was still pondering this question.
Ye Zhen had joined the battle from the very beginning, and by this moment, he had killed no fewer than ten mid to late Establishment Realm martial artists.
Seeing the Stars Tower elites retreating in panic, Ye Zhen’s Sky Eagle Wind-breaking Wings flashed behind him, ready to chase and kill relentlessly. The fewer elite martial artists of Stars Tower there were, the better.
However, just as Ye Zhen’s Sky Eagle Wind-breaking Wings flashed, the voice of Great Saint of Jinghai echoed in Ye Zhen’s Soul Sea.
“Fourth Brother, don’t pursue a cornered enemy. With Ou Tu there, if you chase recklessly, you may be counterattacked! Hmm, go set up an ambush on the retreat route to Yin Yang Island!” Great Saint of Jinghai said.
“An ambush on the retreat route to Yin Yang Island? What’s the meaning of that, Brother?” Ye Zhen asked.
Great Saint of Jinghai smiled coldly, “Someone has to pay a price for attacking our Heavenly Wing Island, right? All those people escaped quickly, so we’ll target the neighbor who thinks it’s okay to run away but leaves their base vulnerable. It’s time to teach someone a lesson!”
“Fourth Brother, you know how to handle this, don’t you? Use your best tactics once you encounter them!” Great Saint of Jinghai said.
As Ye Zhen slightly nodded, the Sky Eagle Wind-breaking Wings gave a sudden shake, and immediately vanished into the distance.
The sky was full of fleeing martial artists, and no one noticed Ye Zhen’s departure.
The successive escapes of Ou Tu and Jie Tianhe left Yang Ben and Yin Yi completely disoriented. If they couldn’t escape, they would be surrounded by Great Saint of Jinghai and others, and it would be tough to survive!
Yang Ben and Yin Yi exchanged a determined glance.
Suddenly, an indescribably terrifying aura spread out.
As it spread, the just-returned Great Saint of Jinghai shouted to everyone with a soul warning, “It’s the Yin Yang Annihilation Divine Thunder, retreat quickly!”
The Yin Yang Annihilation Divine Thunder was a life-saving artifact painstakingly crafted by Yin Yi and Yang Ben over the years, said to be capable of killing even a Dao Entrance Realm existence if the timing was right.
Back when Liao Fei seized Yang Ben’s storage ring, it contained such a Yin Yang Annihilation Divine Thunder.
At that moment, Yin Yi suddenly flung out the half-red, half-black sphere of terror in his palm. As soon as he released it, it forced the besieging martial artists to retreat hastily.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the two quickly retreated. As they retreated, a sinister grin appeared at the corner of Yin Yi’s mouth, “Explode!”
The black and red brilliance erupted suddenly, like the confrontation between night before dawn and a rising sun.
The horrifying black-red wave spread silently, instantly turning nearly a hundred mid to late Establishment Realm martial artists, whether foes or not, to ashes.
Among those unable to react was the Island Lord of Anning Island, Wu Shu, who was about to be swallowed by the black-red light but was suddenly ensnared by black tendrils, causing a terrifying sound explosion as it pulled his body away rapidly.
At this moment, Great Sage of the Overturning Sea revealed his true form. With his claws raised in the air, countless seawater converged up, forming layer upon layer of water defense above the Overturning Sea Command Flag, shielding the thousand elite martial artists behind him.
“Ha ha, Jinghai, until we meet again!” With a laugh, Yin Yi and Yang Ben retreated swiftly.
A playful smile appeared at the corners of Great Saint of Jinghai’s mouth, but he shouted, “You wish to escape? Dream on, I’m not done with you yet today!”
“Chase!”
With a wave of his hand, Great Saint of Jinghai, who had been waiting on the side, immediately chased after them. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on .)
