Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 341: Ruthless and Unrighteous
"Who goes there! Don't come any closer! Stop!"

As the Azure Cloud Boat sailed towards the deep sea for a quarter of an hour, two cultivators suddenly appeared in front of it and blocked its way.

"Who goes there? Why are you blocking my way?"

Li Yunjing was taken aback and asked them from the "Azure Cloud Boat".

He never expected to encounter two more cultivators in the vast deep sea. It was like finding a needle in a haystack, which greatly surprised Li Yunjing.

"Stop talking first!"

Two cultivators, one fat and one thin, shouted urgently, seemingly afraid that the "Azure Cloud Boat" might continue forward and cause some disruption.

"There's someone behind me..."

Before Li Yunjing could finish speaking, ripples suddenly appeared on the dark seabed in front of him, and an undercurrent swept in from the front.

On the "Azure Cloud Boat", Li Yunjing felt that the resistance had increased more than tenfold!
Moreover, this underwater current is not just passing by, but is continuously increasing and becoming more and more intense!
"Roar!"

With a loud bang, a monstrous beast leaped out of the deep sea.

This monstrous beast, resembling a small mountain, was a giant blue crab.

This enormous blue crab waved its two huge pincers, and with each wave, an undercurrent of tension surged.

"The monsters have emerged! Everyone be careful! Also, you few go and help the fat and thin elders hold off those damned uninvited guests!"

Near the giant blue crab, dozens of cultivators appeared, one of whom shouted loudly.

The people's clothing was varied and diverse, clearly indicating that they did not belong to any one faction.

It turns out that these people were here, preparing to capture this blue crab. However, Li Yunjing escaped here in the "Azure Cloud Boat," which alerted the blue crab, leading to the unexpected turn of events.

This caused their plan to fail, and the giant crab had already rushed out, stirring up trouble.

"The Blue-Armored Crab King!"

On the "Azure Cloud Boat," Li Yunjing could hardly believe his eyes. These people were actually hunting a demonic beast of this level. Without asking, Li Yunjing was certain that these cultivators hated him to death.

The "Azure-Armored Crab King" is one of the overlords of the sea. The one in front of us is a full hundred feet in size. Even a warship like the "Azure Cloud Boat" would probably be crushed by the "Azure-Armored Crab King" with a single pincer!

When Li Yunjing discovered the anomaly, the white-robed cultivator who had been chasing him also saw the situation.

The man's heart stirred, and his figure dimmed, disappearing from sight.

At this critical juncture, this person chose to spare Li Yunjing for the time being, and instead prepared to lie in wait at the bottom of the sea, waiting for the outcome of this great battle, ready to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!

Be the fisherman who reaps the final benefit!

"Oh shit!"

Seeing that the "Blue-Armored Crab King" had driven away the people surrounding it and was actually swimming towards him, Li Yunjing's face turned pale!

Is this "Green-Armored Crab King" because it thinks the "Azure Cloud Boat" is the biggest?
That's why he chose the "Azure Cloud Boat"—to eliminate himself immediately?
"Whoosh!"

Without any hesitation, Li Yunjing immediately put away the "Azure Cloud Boat" and continued swimming towards the seabed.

The aura emanating from him has also changed.

He continued to blend into the seawater, and Li Yunjing's speed in the water was faster than any cultivator. His agile figure was comparable to the fastest fish.

Upon seeing Li Yunjing escape, the remaining cultivators who were preparing to attack the "Azure-Armored Crab King" gritted their teeth in hatred.

If Li Yunjing hadn't escaped so quickly, they would have intended to use the "Azure-Armored Crab King" to kill him first.

The white-robed cultivator lurking on the seabed saw Li Yunjing escape and instinctively moved, wanting to give chase. However, after glancing at the "Azure-Armored Crab King," he stopped and continued to lie in wait.

Li Yunjing is merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator, while the "Azure-Armored Crab King" is a powerful third-tier demonic beast. The choice is self-evident!

Obtaining the "Azure-Armored Crab King" will bring enormous benefits!
"Roar……"

The "Green-Armored Crab King" is too big; how could it possibly catch up with Li Yunjing?

After chasing for a short while, it discovered that Li Yunjing had disappeared. It roared angrily, turned around, and charged at the person who had previously targeted it.

All of the "Green-Armored Crab King's" anger was vented on these people!
"what……"

"Everyone, be careful!"

"Quickly set up the formation!"

……

In just a moment, some people had already fallen under the attack of the "Azure-Armored Crab King". Their corpses were grabbed by the giant pincers and put into its mouth, where it was chewed up with a "crunch crunch".

While these people were entangled with the "Azure-Armored Crab King", Li Yunjing swam back silently and used the "Great Way of Water" to conceal his movements and observe the battle.

With such a grand scene, the white-robed cultivator stayed behind, so Li Yunjing naturally had no reason to leave!
The brave ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death!
Having encountered such a golden opportunity, Li Yunjing had to see the outcome no matter what!
Let's see if there's an opportunity to fish in troubled waters!

What Li Yunjing didn't know was that besides that group of cultivators and white-robed cultivators, there was another group watching the battlefield!

Hidden among the reefs on the seabed, two enormous, scarlet eyes are observing the battlefield dozens of miles away, like patient hunters searching for the best opportunity to strike their prey.

Li Yunjing had long since drifted with the current, slowly floating in the undercurrents of the sea, moving in another direction from the battlefield toward the ambush site he had just set up.

There's a common saying in the cultivation world: the place where a top-tier demon king resides is bound to be a treasure land.

This "Blue-armored Crab King" is so powerful, its habitat must not be a barren place, right?
In terms of courage, Li Yunjing was even bolder than that white-robed cultivator!
After he got close enough, Li Yunjing used the "Earth Escape Technique" to dive into the sand at the bottom of the sea and continue his journey through the sand.

As he approached the territory of the "Azure-Armored Crab King," a unique fragrance wafted from the soil. With Li Yunjing's sense of smell, he could clearly detect this fragrance.

Li Yunjing took a few greedy sniffs, feeling refreshed and invigorated. He thought to himself, "It seems this 'Azure-Armored Crab King' really is guarding some kind of rare treasure from the sea!"

Li Yunjing kept getting closer, but after reaching a certain position, he suddenly felt a jolt in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

Li Yunjing quickly stopped moving, not daring to go any further!

He knew this was within the territory of the "Azure-Armored Crab King," and there might be some powerful restrictions or formations there. If he continued forward, he would inevitably trigger such dangers.

Li Yunjing wasn't too afraid of formations and restrictions, but he was afraid of alerting the "Azure-Armored Crab King," which would then attack from afar.

Faced with a monster of this level, Li Yunjing naturally couldn't possibly fight it head-on!

Moreover, there are many cultivators nearby, including terrifying beings of the white-robed cultivator level.

It can be said that the surrounding environment is fraught with crises.

If you're not careful, you could be doomed.

Li Yunjing arrived here, hiding beneath the sand, coldly observing the changes in the surrounding environment. Surprisingly, there were no marine creatures in this area.

There wasn't a single fish, a single shrimp, or even a single crab of the same kind!
This situation made Li Yunjing even more cautious.

Li Yunjing's physical body remained still, and he continued to use his divine sense to explore the surrounding area.

They explored every inch with utmost care, afraid of accidentally triggering something.

After several dozen breaths, Li Yunjing's divine sense discovered a coral reef in the pitch-black seabed.

Inside a cave amidst the coral reef, faint light flickers intermittently, and the fragrance emanates from within the cave.

However, when Li Yunjing tried to probe inside with his divine sense, he encountered an obstacle that prevented him from entering.

Li Yunjing vaguely sensed that some rare treasures were planted in the very center of the cave.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

While Li Yunjing remained still, someone else moved. In the distance, three figures swam over quickly, without any hesitation, and rushed directly into the territory of the "Azure-Armored Crab King"!

"Damn it! Those three bastards ruined my plans!"

Li Yunjing cursed inwardly, but his face showed a helpless expression. He did not choose to go out, but instead continued to lie in wait underground. He remained hidden for a hundred feet in the seabed soil, concealing all his aura, and merged into the underground like a stone.

"Roar……"

At that moment, the "Azure-Armored Crab King," who was still locked in battle with a large number of cultivators, sensed that something had happened to its lair. With a roar, it immediately returned to its lair!

Its enormous body moved with unstoppable force, and the surrounding cultivators scattered to launch an attack from three other directions.

The "Blue-Armored Crab King" ignored these attacks and returned to its lair!

It immediately identified the three cultivators who had sneaked in.

Suddenly, the "Azure-Armored Crab King" snapped its two pincers together with a clang, and a bolt of lightning shot out, chasing after the three cultivators!
The lightning bolt was incredibly thick, a massive pillar of light three zhang in diameter. In a single strike, it reduced the three of them to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

"Damn it! No wonder I didn't see the three Qi brothers. Turns out they were trying to take advantage of the situation. Good riddance!"

Among the pursuing cultivators, a gaunt old man coldly cursed.

"That's right! Trying to eat alone will only lead to bad consequences! We won't get anything if we don't subdue the 'Green-Armored Crab King' first!"

Another female Taoist nun said gloatingly.

"That's right! Aunt Ma is absolutely right! We must unite and kill this 'Green-Armored Crab King'!"

Another person spoke up during a lull in the attack.

"Where is Fairy Shengyin? She summoned us here to ambush and kill the 'Azure-Armored Crab King,' but why have we not seen her at all?"

The gaunt old man who had spoken earlier asked again.

"Don't worry! The fairy will be here soon!"

A middle-aged cultivator in black coldly said, "Our 'Holy Sound Sect' invited you all here because we are absolutely confident that the 'Azure-Armored Crab King' is not very capable! We can definitely take him down!"

“Excellent! We, the Holy Sound Sect, always keep our word. We will deliver on any promises we make to you. Hold on for another half an hour, and we can take care of the rest!”

A white-robed cultivator stood nearby and echoed this.

These two were actually both Golden Core cultivators!

Neither the hidden Li Yunjing nor the people who had previously chased after him expected that among these thirty-odd people, there were two Golden Core Realm experts hidden!

Moreover, judging from their words, another important figure will arrive within half an hour!

This greatly shocked Li Yunjing, who was lurking underground. If all these Golden Core cultivators came, how could he gain an advantage?
In particular, the "Holy Sound Sect" is a powerful force in the East Sea, and even the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect" has to step forward to win it over!

Li Yunjing had no idea how the talks between the "Holy Sound Sect" and the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect" were going, or whether they were allies or enemies!
Thinking of this, Li Yunjing was extremely anxious!
The pale-skinned man who shared the same idea as Li Yunjing had also overheard their conversation while lurking nearby, and thus had no choice but to take the risk.

He shot out like an arrow, flying towards the location of the coral reef!

"You ignorant fool! How dare you try to take advantage of me!"

The moment the cultivator moved, everyone noticed. The black-clad man, a Golden Core cultivator, sneered.

As soon as the man finished speaking, the "Azure-Armored Crab King" clashed its two pincers together again. With a "boom," a beam of azure lightning shot out and hurtled towards the white-robed cultivator!

"You beast! You think you can do anything to me? Not so easy!"

Having already figured out the "Azure-Armored Crab King's" moves, the white-robed cultivator sneered, his speed suddenly increasing dramatically. He actually shook off the lightning and rushed into the cave in the coral reef.

Just as the white-robed cultivator went inside, a giant eel suddenly burst out of the mud and headed towards the coral reef.

"Crack!"

As soon as the eel moved, its entire body crackled with electricity, creating a zone of lightning. Some unlucky cultivators who fell into this zone were instantly electrocuted and turned into charcoal!

This area of ​​lightning blocked the passage between the coral reef and the battlefield, and the eel followed it in!

Seeing this, Li Yunjing didn't care about anything else and headed towards the coral reef as well!

Anyway, he was least afraid of lightning magic, so the eel's attack was practically nothing to him!

The others, including the giant "Blue-Armored Crab King," could only watch helplessly as everything unfolded.
The "Electric Eel King" possesses invincible lightning magic, making it practically an unbeatable symbol in the sea. Anyone or any monster that sees it behaves itself and dares not cross the lightning zone!

At this moment, the white-robed monk from the "Holy Sound Sect" also recognized who the first person to enter the coral reef was.

He roared, "It's that scoundrel Xie Wuyi!"

"Damn it! Xie Wuyi is a notorious bandit in the East China Sea, specializing in murder and robbery!"

"Xie Wuyi's cultivation has reached the half-step Golden Core realm, and he also possesses a powerful artifact. He's not easy to deal with!"

"Over the years, he has been hunted down by Golden Core Realm experts, yet he has remained alive and well. Some Golden Core Realm cultivators have even been killed by him using external forces!"

"This kind of person is a huge problem!"

"There's nothing we can do about this huge problem! He's the number one person below the Golden Core realm! Who can defeat him?"

……

Upon hearing the words of the white-robed Golden Core cultivator, everyone felt a chill and began to discuss among themselves.

Xie Wuyi is too infamous!
It's absolutely legendary!
Among the cultivators present, the two Golden Core Realm experts from the "Holy Sound Sect," one in black and one in white, all wore solemn expressions, clearly acknowledging the terror of Xie Wuyi!
The lightning strikes were still in effect, and the surrounding seawater continued to crackle with electricity. People outside dared not enter the caves inside the coral reef.

Inside the cave, all three parties rushed in. As soon as Xie Wuyi went deeper inside, he saw a spiritual plant!
Inside the cave, a rich fragrance filled the air, and a five-colored exotic flower bloomed brilliantly.

This unusual flower has five petals in shades of gold, red, green, and black!
Within the five petals lies a fruit the size of a fist!

This fruit is black and white!
The intense aroma emanates from this black and white fruit!

Li Yunjing was shocked when he saw this strange flower!

He didn't know what the flower was called!
However, the petals were permeated with the power of the five elements, and the fruit in the middle was circulated with the energy of yin and yang!

However, the fruit was not plump, clearly indicating that it had not yet reached maturity and was not ripe!
Such a treasure! Li Yunjing, Xie Wuyi, and the Electric Eel King all stared at the rare gem with greedy eyes, ready to pounce and seize it at any moment!
"Kid! We're all human! How about we team up and deal with the 'Electric Eel King' first?"

Seeing the three-way standoff, Xie Wuyi was very wary of this "Electric Eel King" and proposed to join forces.

Xie Wuyi didn't value Li Yunjing's cultivation level, but rather his identity as a member of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect". This kid Li Yunjing was able to get into this place through the blockade of the "Electric Eel King" and still acted fearless, so he must have a way to restrain lightning magic!

This is exactly what he wanted to use Li Yunjing for!

"Hehe! Alright! We'll split the treasure equally. I'll take your five-colored petals and this plant, and the Yin-Yang Fruit is yours, how about that?"

Li Yunjing's eyes lit up, and an idea came to him.

"Okay! I agree!"

Xie Wuyi sneered inwardly, but outwardly maintained a righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor.

As for an ant like Li Yunjing, he could easily kill him once he dealt with the "Electric Eel King"!
Cooperating with this kind of person?
It was just a joke!

He's wicked and heartless!

Heartless and ungrateful, their words are like farts, and their oaths are meaningless!
If God wants to punish him, he will defy God!

We're going against the heavens!

"Roar……"

Upon hearing that the two humans in front of it were actually going to join forces to deal with it, the "Electric Eel King" roared angrily, its whole body crackling with electricity, and released a net of electricity directly into the cave!
Of course, this "Electric Eel King" still knows its limits!
The place where that rare and precious plant was located was not struck by lightning!

The "Electric Eel King" left a safe distance there!

This short distance was of no help to Li Yunjing and Xie Wuyi; in an instant, both of them fell into the electric fence.
