Primordial Emperor Xihuang

Chapter 104 Sea Beasts

In the bottomless, enormous trench, countless water bubbles rose, floated, and burst open. Giant tentacles emerged from the trench and crashed down in front of the armies of the horseshoe crabs and the ancient serpents, stirring up waves of turbid mud.

The enormous, dark purple, eight-legged giant octopus covered in countless thorns slowly crawled out of the trench. Its massive tentacles, each a hundred thousand feet long, resembled mountain ranges, and with the help of violent undercurrents and tides, slammed down on the ancient serpent army.

Rumble!!

Amidst the vast army formation, countless soft, icy snowflakes spread, freezing the tentacles that the giant octopus had knocked off.

However, the giant octopus's strike also caused casualties among the ancient serpent army. Even the great formation could not withstand the terrifying power of the giant octopus, and tens of thousands of ancient serpent soldiers were killed.

Countless rapids surged from the deep trench, and one after another, enormous sea monsters slowly swam out of the trench.

Dark purple octopus, crimson starfish, blue crab brandishing its giant claws, giant shark with tens of thousands of massive teeth...

In the blink of an eye, seventy-two sea monsters crawled out of the trench one after another, their eyes bloodshot, and charged into the armies of the Horseshoe Crab Clan and the Ancient Serpent Clan.

Behind these two armies, thirty-six large sea monsters slowly swam in from the shadows, blocking the retreat of the horseshoe crab army and the ancient snake army.

One hundred and eight sea monsters—this was a terrifying force comparable to a million-strong army. The moment these sea monsters appeared, Yanzi and Guqi's expressions changed drastically.

They were well aware that there were countless sea monsters in the four seas, but Yanzi and Guqi did not expect that the dragon race would be able to enslave so many sea monsters in such a short time.

It should be noted that even in the ancestral temples of their two clans in the East Sea, there were no such many sea beasts enslaved.

One hundred and eight sea beasts, driven by Fuxi alone, roared and charged into the army of horseshoe crabs and ancient snakes.

Their enormous size pressed against each other, forming an endless wall of flesh that trapped the armies of both races.

Tentacles, arthropods, giant pincers, sharp teeth—countless terrifying forces originating from the flesh crashed into the army of horseshoe crabs and ancient snakes, bringing bursts of blood.

The great formation was shaken, and two equally enormous purple-striped ancient snakes and black-armored horseshoe crabs emerged from the coast, temporarily blocking the 108 sea beasts that were attacking from all sides.

However, at that moment, tens of thousands of Ren-Gui Yin Thunder and flowing rainbows crashed into the armies of the Sword Crab Clan and the Ancient Serpent Clan.

Within the Azure Dragon army, the Nine Heavens Thunder Tower and the Raging Wave Puppet unleashed beams of light, causing the grand formations evolved by the Horseshoe Crab army and the Ancient Serpent army to tremble and shatter continuously.

The magical war artifacts blazed with spiritual light, unleashing their full power to relentlessly attack the horseshoe crab army and the ancient snake army. Together with the 108 great sea beasts, they crushed the horseshoe crab army and the ancient snake army, causing them to retreat in disarray and suffer heavy casualties.

Gu Qi thrust his deep blue spear through the palm of his hand, piercing one of the tentacles that had been knocked off the eight-legged giant octopus. Looking at the chaotic army below, Gu Qi's expression was extremely grim.

These 108 sea beasts possessed astonishing physical strength; even he had to exert his full power several times to kill just one of them.

If they were to let those 108 sea beasts fight to the death with their two clans' armies, then before even encountering the Azure Dragon army, their two clans' armies would suffer 50% or 60% casualties.

"Contract into a wedge formation, practice the cone formation, and get through these sea monsters."

With a loud shout, Gu Qi unleashed an overwhelming aura of the Serpent Ancestor, restoring order to the chaotic ancient serpent army.

The army slowly contracted, with the eighteen Golden Immortals as its spearhead, and the more than two million soldiers transformed into a cone. The formation was like a divine sword, cleaving through a five-pointed starfish blocking the ancient serpent army's path, and then charging towards the Azure Dragon army on the other side of the trench.

At the same time, the horseshoe crab army also adopted the same strategy, shrinking their formation, killing a roaring giant shark, and charging towards the Azure Dragon army.

"Your efforts are in vain. If you want to fight with my Azure Dragon Army, you'd better kill all 108 of these sea beasts first."

A wisp of sword light descended, and Gu Qi, who was issuing orders, tensed up. He turned his dark blue spear, which was aimed at a sea beast, around and raised it high. The six-sided spear tip, carrying a yin and turbid energy that devoured everything, shattered the wisp of sword light that Fu Xi had slashed down.

Fuxi stood above Guqi, looking down at the cold-faced Guqi below. Dongjun Sword was drawn two inches from its sheath, its clear light piercing through the layers of rippling spacetime. He glanced at Yanzi, but ignored him. This time, his target was Guqi.

"The war between the armies is left to the men below; it is time for our own battle to begin."

With five energies surging within his chest like a dragon, Fuxi opened his mouth and exhaled, and five-colored divine light transformed into five streaks of light, repelling the dark blue spear in front of him that had pierced through the ocean current.

Looking at Yanzi and Guqi opposite him, Fuxi's originally immense aura instantly vanished.

The Dongjun Sword was slowly drawn from its sheath. Its supreme and noble blade was as clear as water, and its grand sword intent, which surpassed everything, immediately attracted the attention of Gu Qi and Yan Zi.

Even though they were on opposing sides, Guqi and Yanzi had to admit that the divine sword in Fuxi's palm was pure and crystal clear. Its blade, spine, and hilt all exuded a natural and exquisite beauty. More than a weapon of slaughter, this divine sword was a work of art.

The sword light shone brightly. Fuxi looked at Guqi and Yanzi, chuckled, and the Overlord Yang Sword Force transformed into countless crimson gold fireflies, slashing towards Guqi.

With a flash of sword light, the deep sea was cleaved in two by Fuxi's sword. The sea churned and surged, and a bright sword mark appeared in the boundless darkness.

Just as Gu Qi raised his spear, he was slashed back by Fu Xi's sword, and the turbid yin energy surging throughout his body was cleaved open by the sword.

His pupils contracted, and Gu Qi stepped into the dark current, his expression growing increasingly cold and fierce as he looked at the sword mark that had appeared on the dark blue spear in his palm.

"So strong!"

The myriad orders and spiritual light in the Heavenly Chart evolved into the purity and turbidity of heaven and earth. Fuxi flashed and avoided the strangulation of the two energies. With a wave of his left hand, a large area of ​​the sea in the abyss evaporated completely.

Nine layers of thunder rose up, and countless azure divine thunderbolts exploded, trapping Yanzi, whose expression had changed drastically, within the Nine Heavens Great Thunder Curse.

Lightning flashed and twisted, each bolt of azure lightning powerful enough to injure an ordinary Taiyi realm expert.

Yanzi enveloped himself in the orderly spiritual light of the Heavenly Chart, resisting the continuous thunderbolts from all around. Xuanzi's rope transformed into twelve golden rainbows, piercing through layer upon layer of thunder, searching for a way to escape and break the Great Thunder Curse of the Nine Heavens.

Fuxi watched the golden rainbows that occasionally streaked across the Nine Heavens of Thunder, but paid them no heed. He couldn't kill Yanzi; the karma between him and Yanzi was too great.

Fuxi was certain that as long as he killed Yanzi, the fate and karma would change, and in the future, there would inevitably be powerful cultivators who inherited the bloodline of Pangu who would form even greater karmic ties with him.
