Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 154: Failure of suppression, heavy casualties

Boom~
Both sides succeeded at the same time!

The unprecedented output intensity of the twelve people smashed the Beast King's body into pieces. Its original powerful regenerative power seemed to be less effective, and its body's recovery speed slowed down a lot.

The twelve people were subjected to continuous explosive attacks from the twelve lotus petals. The few who were not good at defense were in extremely bad condition, some were even on the verge of death, while those who were good at escaping were already running away frantically, and the subsequent battle had nothing to do with them.

"good chance!"

Wu Jianyang, who had been in charge of commanding the battle (and watching from the sidelines), finally showed his trump card.

"Yunchang Zhenyue Bell, suppress it for me!"

It was a large ochre-colored bell engraved with the map of Yunchang Secret Island. It was heavy and majestic, and seemed to carry a different kind of power, turning into a huge bronze bell and covering the Beast King of Yanyu.

Buzz buzz~~~
The Zhenyue Bell rotated, suppressing the Flame Domain Beast King from top to bottom, causing his injuries, which were originally recovering, to gradually stop, and even slow down his movements and his eyes to become dull.

The Wu family's background is different, and the effect is excellent from the moment they take action.

"Suppress me!"

The price of the excellent effect was that Wu Jianyang's golden elixir spun wildly, constantly supplying energy to the Zhenyue Bell, as if the other party would break free if he stopped even a little.

Outside the melting cave,

The Carp Dragon Demon King, who had fulfilled the agreement, was waiting with four Golden Core cultivators at the first and second levels, whose attributes were restrained by the Beast King.

Boom~
An explosion far louder than the previous one was heard, and a huge amount of magma spurted out from the mouth of the cave again, boiling in all directions. It was obvious that the intensity of the battle inside had escalated.

"Senior Lilong, the fighting inside is intense and the two sides should be evenly matched. Should we go in and provide support?"

Some people looked at the first and second level resources in the magma and began to look forward to the third level resources in the cave, but still suppressed their excitement and asked the Carp Dragon Demon King for his opinion.

"It's up to you guys. I can't just rush into someone else's turf from my own. I can only support them from the outside."

The Carp Dragon Demon King is self-aware. He knows that his strength is just that of an ordinary mid-third stage. He can still claim to be invincible in the same realm when he is in the sea, but once he enters the magma world, he will be easily controlled.

Carp dragon?

It's just a respectful title from others. In essence, it's still a carp, not a dragon. If your mentality really gets carried away, you will become a grilled carp.

"This... is indeed Senior Lilong's thoughtful thought. We can just support him here and not take any risks."

If the strong ones don’t go, the weak ones will be left alone.

The risk for a wood-attributed Jindan to enter in the early stage is greater, and it needs to consume more mana to resist the molten lava. It is hard to say how much strength it can actually exert, and it may even cause trouble to the team.

"Someone's out!"

"Something's wrong, they're seriously injured!"

There was a second person who escaped after the first one, and ten people escaped one after another. Everyone was injured to some extent, and the most seriously injured ones might even have lost their lifespan.

"Thank you fellow Taoists for healing me. I'm so grateful!"

Although the Carp Dragon Demon King cannot heal wounds, he can use special water-attribute spells to devour the remaining fire-attribute power in their bodies, and the wood-attribute Jindan cultivators basically all know some healing and conditioning techniques.

Being able to help them minimize their losses in the first place can be considered as playing a variety of values.

As for the stupid questions of why only ten people came out and where the other two went, no one asked.

The survivors were still in shock. It was the first time they truly felt the horror of the late third stage, even if it was just a being who had just entered the late third stage.

The strength gap between the early and middle stages of the third stage is not worth mentioning compared to the strength gap between the middle and late stages of the third stage.

What you learn from books is always superficial, and it is only when you actually encounter it that you feel despair, especially for species like this that have no detailed records in the heritage.

If they were given another chance to choose, they would not come again even if there was a stronger leader or greater benefits to tempt them.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Wu can succeed!"

When everyone was fleeing in a panic, Wu Jianyang was fighting with all his strength. At that time, Wu Jianyang suppressed the Beast King, but it was too difficult for the small horse to pull the big cart. Wu Jianyang seemed unable to handle the magic weapon inherited from the Wu family. Some people were pessimistic.

"Fellow Daoist Lilong, could you please come in and help?"

There was another Jindan from the Wu family present, who was so concerned that he made such an outrageous request.

"With my small body, what can I do in there?"

The Carp Dragon Demon King immediately jumped back into the sea from the air and never showed up again.

...

The Windrider with a boat full of prey did not head towards the Ichthyosaur Islands, but planned to go to the nearby Burning Sea to sell the prey, and then continue to hunt back to the Fire Iguana Islands until after winter.

"The temperature here is obviously much higher. Will the coastal areas here still freeze in winter?"

The season is already cold, but the air in the hot sea is still warm, which is why the new boatman has doubts.

"It will still freeze! The winter snow season in the Ocean of Storms isn't regional; instead, a cold current from the north indiscriminately covers the entire Ocean of Storms.

It's just that the geothermal energy in the hot sea is significant, and in a few areas where the geothermal energy is greater than the cold current, there's no ice in the winter. This is also a special feature of this area."

"Doesn't that mean we don't need to take a winter break here? If we continue working in the winter, won't the profit be half as much?"

The climate of the Storm Ocean has a certain impact on the production of Qi Refining and even Foundation Establishment cultivators. Naturally, there is no gain when they are not working.

"That won't work. Resource areas with suitable climates have often already been divided up. Do you understand?"

"Ah? It seems that our Lin family is not far from here. Doesn't our family have a share?"

"No, according to historical records from long ago, the interests here were divided up long ago, and we are latecomers. Latecomers who want to intervene will have to pay a price."

"I see! Then is it okay for us to sail into this sea area like this?"

"I don't know. The Fourteenth Master has his own arrangements."

Tonglefang Market,

A second-level market town closest to the Fire Iguana Islands. According to the Lin family's intelligence records, this place is run by a couple of independent cultivators. It is said that the supporter behind them is the Jindan force Lingzhai Reef.

Toot~
This was the first time the Wind Riders had visited, so they had sounded the corresponding flute formation in advance to request a landing. A stranger's rash approach could lead to unnecessary misunderstandings, so it was best to follow the rules. "This boat is so new, where did it come from?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it."

Toot~
The other party responded and agreed to allow the Wind Riders to dock. For this kind of independent cultivator market, it is actually difficult for them to encounter a big customer like the second-level monster hunting ship.

No matter what the purpose of the Wind Rider's landing is, it is a big customer for them.

"Welcome to Tonglefang Market, fellow Taoist. I wonder how I can help you."

The market owner who came out to negotiate was a generous female foundation-building cultivator, but she obviously had no intention of inviting Lin Qianfan into the market or entering the Wind Rider herself. It would be best for both parties to communicate remotely on the shore.

"Did you get the goods? I just got them from the Fire Iguana Islands."

"The Fire Iguana Islands? So remote? Whose demon-hunting ship are you?"

The Fire Iguana Islands are already the outermost area of the Burning Sea, and local demon-hunting ships rarely go so far.

"The Lin family of the Ichthyosaur Islands, the Wind Rider!"

Lin Qianfan proudly tells his origins as he keeps his name and surname.

"Ichthyosaur Islands? Lin Family? Aren't you guys in a restricted area? You're just walking in like this, aren't you afraid of being attacked by the demon-hunting ships of other Jindan factions?"

Naturally, the small market town did not dare to attack the monster hunting ship. Not to mention whether it could win or not, it would certainly not be able to stop the revenge of the Jindan forces. However, other Jindan forces might indeed attack the Lin family's monster hunting ship if they had a legitimate reason.

"Your information is out of date. Would you like to check it again?"

Upon hearing this, the female cultivator took out a jade slip for sending a message. Although she didn't know where the message was going, she replied quickly.

"We have such a distinguished guest. We apologize for not welcoming you. Do you need to go to the island for some supplies? We have a wealth of...products that we can bring back to the Ichthyosaur Islands."

"No need this time. I'm only selling goods this time. If it's suitable, I'll come here to do some shopping on my last trip."

"Alright! I'll see what prey we have and I'll definitely give you a satisfactory price!"

First-level prey are the most in-demand currency in the world of immortal cultivation. Although the supply and demand are balanced in Tonglefang City, she can buy them at a low price and sell them in larger places.

As for why Wind Rider doesn’t sell it itself?
Time cost, energy cost, boatman's wages, etc. all need to be balanced. It is difficult to achieve everything if you want to grab everything. It is more reliable to focus on doing one thing well.

Tonglefang City used up almost all of its liquid funds to take on this business. After all, the local monster hunting ships would never sell to them, and they had no relevant spirit stone reserves.

"Welcome to come again next time!"

"I hope you can prepare more mid-grade spirit stones next time!"

"Will do!"

The price offered by the other party was quite fair, and Lin Qianfan had a pretty good impression of this place. The main reason was that the next decent market was too far away from here, so it would be better to hurry up and hunt more prey.

...

Hot Molten Cave.

In the end, Wu Jianyang was unable to successfully suppress the Flame Domain Beast King, who could continuously replenish his energy through the home advantage. It seemed that as long as he could not kill him in one breath, he could be reversed by him.

"Stay!"

The Beast King actually paid a lot of price, so two mere early Jindan could not satisfy his appetite. What he wanted was Wu Jianyang.

"It's impossible to do anything, we have to retreat!"

As his condition deteriorated, Wu Jianyang had already accepted the failure of this plan. After all, it was not the first time he failed. However, the opponent still had the energy to hold him back and didn't even want him to retreat.

"What kind of monster are you?"

Wu Jianyang found it hard to understand. They were both third-level beings, so why were the other party's abilities so extraordinary and exaggerated? This was unreasonable!
"Stay, stay and I'll tell you!"

The Flame Domain Beast King, who initially tried his best to resist the suppressive force of the Zhenyue Bell, gradually changed to slowly dragging the Zhenyue Bell in an attempt to delay Wu Jianyang.

"If you continue to cut off, you will be subject to chaos!"

Wu Jianyang did not hesitate and cut off the connection with Zhenyue Bell on the spot, choosing to prioritize preserving his own manpower.

"Stay!"

Wu Jianyang naturally gained high mobility after giving up his magic weapon, but the Beast King, who had been injured too many times and recovered too many times, was not flexible and had to let Wu Jianyang escape successfully.

"It's a shame that we let go of our most valuable prey. However, this thing is quite interesting, and its earth attribute suits me quite well."

The originally huge Yunshang Zhenyue Bell was like a small bell at the Beast King's fingertips.

Although this thing is small, it is indeed a genuine top-grade magic weapon. After refining it, it can make up for the Beast King's shortcoming of not having a handy magic weapon.

outside world.

Wu Jianyang's failure was disappointing, and the original alliance and future distribution of interests became empty talk.

"Fellow Daoists, please return to Blazing Flame Immortal City to recuperate and heal your wounds. I will inform the Alliance Leader of this matter. I believe he will not sit idly by and watch the Wu family's inherited magic weapon being lost."

"What? What did you say? You lost the Yunshang Zhenyue Bell? Wu Jianyang, you're a jerk who can't do anything good but always makes things worse!"

Another Jindan of the Wu family was quite accepting of the failure of the plan, after all, Wu Jianyang was in charge, but he never expected that Wu Jianyang would really cause trouble.

"What should I do?"

The Jindan cultivators from the other three clans of the Yunshang League also knew the importance of the Zhenyue Bell and realized that the matter seemed to have become more difficult.

[What will happen after that beast is refined? ]

Although no one had seen Wu Daoyi's strength, they had all seen the supreme power of the Flame Domain Beast King in the magma space. Now he had obtained a fine magic weapon that was very useful and could even exert its maximum power.

They were skeptical about the success rate of Wu Daoyi's attack, and at the same time began to think of a way out for themselves.

The Carp Dragon Demon King was the only one present who was not worried about any problems. After all, he was here to play a supporting role. When the wind was in his favor, he could be very powerful, but when the wind was against him, he could be a coward.
