721: Chapter 480 721: Chapter 480 They called them nothing but trash from the Cultivation World, having lived for over a thousand years, they were already too old to die and should have been long dead!
The powerful beings were anxious as they had not been able to advance in the past few hundred years and were infuriated by such remarks, especially eager to teach the Dragon King a lesson, particularly this East Sea Dragon King.
Yet they were constantly harassed by numerous spirits summoned by the East Sea Dragon King, preventing them from securing a victory easily and leaving them unwilling to just walk away.
The Seven-colored Immortal Qi they were searching for was no longer to be found.
When they questioned the Dragon Kings, they were told that the palace gates had already been closed and they couldn’t open them either.
Nor would they disclose the person capable of opening the palace gates.
One after another, the powerful beings in the Mahayana Realm were very curious to know who could open the gates.
Who released the Seven-colored Immortal Qi?
At this moment, Jiang Tang had confined the Dragon King’s team inside the Hell Palace, leaving the powerful beings without opponents for their spell duels.
They stopped at the bottom of the sea, their expressions somewhat dumbfounded.
Jiang Tang’s Flying Treasure had become invisible by then, and he was planning on flying it farther away, unwilling to let these powerful beings notice and pursue his Flying Treasure, which would lead to endless tracking.
The Video Wall on the Magical Treasure allowed the beauties and Jiang Tang to see the blank expressions of those old ancestors as they searched in vain for the Dragon King’s team.
Thinking that the Dragon King’s team had turned invisible, they snapped out of their daze and cast their spells again, continuously attacking where they thought the Dragon King’s team was.
Would they be able to find them?
“Haha, they are just too adorable!” Xuanyuan Mengting covered her mouth as she laughed at her ancestors.
The other women also laughed along, their family ancestors being among those duped.
“Jiang Tang, you’re so mean!” Dugu Yan’er playfully hit Jiang Tang.
“Men have to be bad for women to love them!” Jiang Tang said this classic phrase!
“Hmph!”
The girls all turned their heads away, ignoring him.
Jiang Tang felt somewhat helpless; not wanting to directly confront their ancestors, he could only think of other methods.
In the future, when their ancestors find out it was him who played tricks on them, they might get angry.
It’s not good for the old folks to get too upset; it’s bad for their health!
Jiang Tang hadn’t flown the Flying Artifact far, just waiting for those powerful beings to leave.
He was preparing to release live fish into the sea and restore its former appearance.
He also needed to plant many Vitality Flowers to sterilize the sea.
The old fellows’ spell duels were not merely a nuisance to the fish due to temperature changes; the issue was the poisonous sprays.
Apart from the poisonous water resulting from the old fellows casting spells, the spirits released by the East Sea Dragon King, along with his drool, were all toxic.
Jiang Tang observed the inside of the Hell Palace and saw the Dragon King’s team under his control, with other Demonic Beasts, spirits, and creatures unable to approach them.
The Dragon King’s team also couldn’t break free from his control, and he had no intention of allowing them to enter the Hell Palace and take control of the Artifact Spirit.
The East Sea Dragon King, having just entered Hell Palace, still unaware of its nature and along with the Southern Sea Dragon King and their team, foolishly looked outside.
When they finally caught a glimpse of the Demonic Beasts, which had fought against them, lunging toward them determined to attack, yet they could not harm them from outside their protective barrier.
“Goodness, you filthy bastards, wild creatures, so it turns out you all came from here.
Let your master come out, Artifact Spirit, come out quickly.
Sneaking an attack is no skill at all, if you’re capable, let’s have a fair fight!”
The Southern Sea Dragon King and his team did not realize the place mentioned by the East Sea Dragon King, nor why the creatures inside held a grudge against them.
After inquiring with the East Sea Dragon King, they learned that this place was inside a Magic Artifact, and the Magic Artifact’s owner was Jiang Tang.
The Southern Sea Dragon King and his children were speechless; that person was so formidable, what use was it to have a verbal advantage when they were not his rival.
He had imprisoned them with just a Magical Treasure and was now displaying them like a misbehaving exhibit!
The Artifact Spirit was getting a bit annoyed by the East Sea Dragon King’s curses.
“East Sea Dragon King, if you’re so brave, why don’t you challenge my master?
You’re still so arrogant inside my Magic Artifact, are you not afraid to die?”
“Psh, I’ve died before.
And you’re just a Magic Artifact, controlled by someone else, should I fear death?
Are you capable of killing me?”
The East Sea Dragon King knew that he still had some value to be utilized, and his current anger was nothing more than a momentary desire to vent—he felt better after cursing a bit.
Actually fighting was not an option as he was not a match for Jiang Tang.
Who could this human be, were his parents former Immortals?
With so many mysterious treasures on his person, could they have been left by his ancestors?
Such formidable secret manuals and techniques weren’t simply created by any parents.
The Artifact Spirit is a Soul Body, but it already possessed intelligence.
In anger, it cast its spell when the East Sea Dragon King scolded it.
A whip materialized in the air, although it was unclear what the whip was made of.
The whip moved as if someone was holding it and lashing out, while the East Sea Dragon King was bound and utterly immobile.
He thought the whip couldn’t possibly reach him, yet to his surprise, the whip lashed against his flesh.
Even his soul could feel the pain, and the East Sea Dragon King, whose soul was in agony, cursed in a coarse language.
“Damn it, who created this Spiritual Artifact, it’s so vicious, damn it, it hurts so much!”
The more the East Sea Dragon King cursed, the more ferociously the whip struck.
The Southern Sea Dragon King felt pain just watching him.
The Crown Prince and Princess of the Southern Sea Dragon King thought this royal uncle was too foolish.
Couldn’t he just endure in silence?
Must he indulge his tongue and now suffer the consequences?
Surely he must have learned many lessons, otherwise so many Demonic Beasts wouldn’t come running to bully him.
And now he was even bullied by an Artifact Spirit.
The Crown Prince and Princess of the Southern Sea Dragon King were not on good terms with their counterparts from the East Sea, perhaps due to different temperaments.
Although they were siblings, they didn’t interact much.
The Southern Sea Dragon King told the East Sea Dragon King not to speak anymore, as the more he spoke, the more he was beaten.
“Brother, it’s so infuriating, what is Jiang Tang doing locking us up here?”
The East Sea Dragon King felt extremely unlucky, knowing that the Artifact Spirit was acting under Jiang Tang’s orders.
The Demonic Beasts that tried to pounce on the East Sea Dragon King realized they couldn’t get close as they were outside the protective circle.
The other Dragon Kings and their teams bore no grudge against these beasts, so they didn’t bother to bite.
The appearance of the whip lashing the East Sea Dragon King made it clear to them that the master was punishing the East Sea Dragon King, and it wasn’t much concerning the other dragons.
The Taoist observing from within the Magical Treasure couldn’t escape and could only stealthily watch the dragons being punished from a distance.
Unbeknownst to him, his near possession by the Crown Prince and his return to captivity was actually a form of protection.
The Taoist knew he couldn’t take his revenge, as his enemy didn’t even consider him worth noticing.
Huang Chen had arrived within the Magical Treasure, hiding within his own Magic Artifact.
With the emergence of more powerful beings inside the Magical Treasure, even though they were restrained, they could potentially take control of these creatures.
Huang Chen repeatedly faced his enemies without the chance for reprisal.
At this moment, his heart was in agony; the enemy of his enemy was supposedly a friend.
Yet he couldn’t trust these dragons to assist in his vengeance.
Even the dragon Immortals couldn’t break free from Jiang Tang’s control.
Huang Chen felt that his chances for revenge were slim and that it was already fortunate for him to remain alive.
His heart endured great torment as he couldn’t kill his enemy himself; he was neither capable of defeating nor cursing them, which was a cruel form of torture.
Huang Chen, in his quest for revenge and desire to reunite with his family, had no choice but to endure.
He silently cultivated within the Magical Treasure, observing the conflicts outside without getting involved.
Jiang Tang of course noticed Huang Chen but did not regard him as significant.
Within his Magical Treasure, Jiang Tang maintained control.
Even though they had a grudge, Jiang Tang had ceased to care, feeling gratitude towards Huang Chen for providing him an opportunity.
If Huang Chen hadn’t attempted to seize the treasure and kill him, he wouldn’t have had access to so many opportunities.
He felt a certain sympathy for Huang Chen, who instead of acquiring the treasure, met his end.
Now as a ghost, he was confined within his Magical Treasure, effectively caged, and even upon seeing him, Jiang Tang couldn’t be killed, which must torment him.
Jiang Tang also witnessed the Artifact Spirit lashing the East Sea Dragon King, yet he didn’t intervene.
The East Sea Dragon King’s arrogance indeed needed to be curbed.
Jiang Tang observed that the great powers couldn’t find the Dragon King’s team and began to surface from the seabed, then flew high above the sea.
They failed to detect his Flying Artifact as they searched for traces of the East Sea Dragon King and his group!
