Chapter 609: Monster King

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Feis figure leaped onto the eaves and looked in the direction of the Haiyue Cave, precisely where Min Yanlu was at this moment.

Many others, like Chen Fei, leaped onto the eaves, their faces showing relief.

Though they were unaware of the danger Min Yanlu faced at this moment, the fact that Master Haiyue was willing to rush over suggested that the crisis could likely be averted.

Chen Feis gaze flickered as several thoughts flashed through his mind.

Regardless of whether Min Yanlu could evade this crisis, Chen Fei now needed to prepare several contingency plans.

Not just for himself, but for the entire Primordial Sword Sect.

If the situation in Haiyue City became irretrievable, Chen Fei wanted to bring as many disciples as possible to escape.

All the disciples currently in Haiyue City had migrated from Immortal Cloud City, and Chen Fei knew each one of them.

Perhaps some of them didnt interact much in normal days, but they were all wholeheartedly devoted to the Primordial Sword Sect.

Chen Fei swiftly approached Qu Qingsheng and whispered a few words to him. Qu Qingsheng nodded in understanding.

Chen Feis methods might not ultimately be effective, but he believed in doing what he could and leaving the rest to fate, as it was the only approach he could think of given his current strength.

Hundreds of miles away, Shen Yanhe and the others sensed the commotion behind them, then turned to see the Haiyue Cave, their faces all lit up with surprise.

Master Haiyue and Min Yanlu were considered close friends, which was why Master Haiyue could freely move within the Thousand Feathers Alliance and make his Haiyue Cave so renowned within it.

Previously, when Min Yanlu was guarding Haiyue City, Master Haiyue had actually appeared a few times, although his presence had become less frequent lately.

When Min Yanlu encountered danger, Shen Yanhe and the others immediately thought of Master Haiyue. However, they couldnt reach him, so they had to prepare to face the situation themselves.

Standing atop the cave mansion, Master Haiyue looked ahead with a solemn expression. Sensing Shen Yanhe and the others presence, he glanced down.

Seeing their posture, Master Haiyue understood their intentions, and his solemn expression eased slightly.

Having such disciples, Min Yanlus choice of disciples was not a failure.

In just a moment, hundreds of miles pa.s.sed by leisurely, and Master Haiyue could already see Min Yanlus struggling figure.

The radiance of the Enlightenment Tower had dimmed significantly, with scars covering its surface, as if it could shatter at any moment. Even with the Enlightenment Tower mitigating most of the force, Min Yanlu was severely injured.

The physical advantage of the sea monsters, especially after reaching the fourth stage, had not diminished but had instead increased.

For Min Yanlu to hold his ground against two opponents and last until now was already an extraordinary feat.

However, without Master Haiyues intervention, Min Yanlu would ultimately perish, without even a chance to escape.

To lure Min Yanlu here, the sea monsters had paid a considerable price and were determined to keep him here at all costs.

Seemingly sensing Master Haiyues arrival, the attacks of the two Fourth-Tier sea monsters against Min Yanlu became even more ferocious, sometimes even disregarding Min Yanlus counterattacks to inflict heavier injuries upon him.

Moreover, in the exchange of injuries, the sea monsters had always held the upper hand. Not only were their physical bodies stronger, but their recovery speed surpa.s.sed that of martial pract.i.tioners by a significant margin.

Its precisely in terms of mental and spiritual strength that the sea monsters are somewhat weaker.

If not for this disadvantage, they would have likely overwhelmed all martial pract.i.tioners of the same level.

Boom!

With tremendous force, the Haiyue Cave smashed onto the prohibition set up by the sea monsters. Min Yanlu let out a low roar, his sharp blade intent suppressing the surroundings, forcing back the two sea monsters, and smoothly arriving by Master Haiyues side.

Cough!

Min Yanlu spat out a mouthful of blood, his face suddenly turning pale, and his aura starting to decline.

Are you alright? Master Haiyue looked at Min Yanlu, his voice heavy.

Not dead yet, Min Yanlu shook his head, his gaze fixed on the two sea monsters ahead.

You should have let Xu Xizhang come with you, Master Haiyue frowned.

Hes already here. By now, he should be engaged with one of the Fourth-Tier monster kings, Min Yanlu replied.

Taking a deep breath, his gaze hardened as he continued, I thought there were only two Fourth-Tier monster kings on the other side, so I let Xizhang handle one while I tried to slay the other. Turns out, those monster kings had the same idea as me.

Hearing that there were three Fourth-Tier monster kings on the opposing side, Master Haiyues eyebrows raised involuntarily. Min Yanlu should have thought to inform him to act together, but Master Haiyue had been preoccupied with other matters.

Today, Master Haiyue happened to return and sensed the situation here, thus rus.h.i.+ng over promptly.

Lets retreat to Haiyue City first!

Controlling the cave mansion, Master Haiyue drifted backward, his eyes fixed firmly on the two monster kings ahead.

Roar!

A deafening roar erupted from one of the monster kings, causing the vital energy of heaven and earth to tremble violently. Countless sound waves converged and struck towards Master Haiyue.

Activate!

With a low shout, Master Haiyue expanded the Haiyue Cave, forming a mountain-like barrier in front of him.

In the next moment, a violent sound echoed through the heavens and earth, causing the clouds in all directions to dissipate almost completely. Only the ferocious power transmitted to the sea surface, then surged out in the form of a tsunami, spreading in all directions.

Inside Haiyue City, Chen Fei made some preparations, occasionally looking towards the south, trying to discern the current situation from various details.

Compared to the optimism of others, Chen Fei didnt have too much confidence in this battle.

The appearance of Master Haiyue was definitely a morale booster, but the sea monsters they faced were not to be underestimated. If just one more Master Haiyue could turn the tide, then the war between them and the sea monsters would have ended long ago.

At this moment, with the sea monsters only twenty miles away from Haiyue City, it was completely impossible for Chen Fei to secretly lead the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect to escape.

Daring to flee, let alone considering how Haiyue City might react upon discovery later on.

Simply attempting to smuggle out so many martial pract.i.tioners from under the noses of so many sea monsters was an impossible task. Even if they were to be discovered by the sea monsters, they would become targets of collective aggression, attacked by all at once.

At that time, they might not just face a single third-stage pinnacle sea monster targeting them; instead, it could be a group of third-stage pinnacle sea monsters tearing them apart into pieces.

Just the thought of it sent s.h.i.+vers down ones spine.

Chen Feis gaze s.h.i.+fted towards the northwest of the city, where the Fallen Heaven Pavilion was stationed in Haiyue City.

At this moment, if one considered who had the best chance of escaping, Chen Feis first thought was the people of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion.

Compared to those turncoats who only sought to gain advantages from both sides conflicts, the Fallen Heaven Pavilion undoubtedly aimed to overthrow the entire Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Regarding whether they were colluding with the sea monsters, Chen Fei was the first one not to believe it.

Since there was collusion, there must be an escape route provided to the Fallen Heaven Pavilion.

Among the several contingency plans Chen Fei had prepared, one of them involved the Fallen Heaven Pavilion.

When the situation became untenable, Chen Fei would keep an eye on the movements of the Fallen Heaven Pavilion, hoping for the possibility of accompanying them to escape with the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect.

Chen Fei was pondering when his expression suddenly s.h.i.+fted, and he looked towards the south.

Just now, he had faintly sensed some changes in the situation there, although it wasnt about detecting any specific aura; it was purely inferred from the fluctuations in the natural energy of the heavens and earth.

However, it was too far away, and Chen Fei couldnt confirm whether his perception was accurate.

After all, the natural energy there had already been disrupted by the battles in the Mountain Sea Realm. The Heavenly Eye could only search for some patterns amidst this disrupted energy.

And just now, there had been significant changes in the patterns of natural energy.

Half an hour later, three grand auras returned from the south, and many people in the city showed excitement in their eyes.

The only three Mountain Sea Realm experts within the Thousand Feathers Alliance were all currently in Haiyue City, and the citys power had reached its peak.

Chen Fei, however, remained calm, frowning as he looked at the figures ahead.

While others couldnt sense it, through the Heavenly Eye, Chen Fei noticed that all three Mountain Sea Realm experts had been injured, with Min Yanlu and Xu Xizhang being the most severely injured.

Master Haiyue was also injured, but among the three, his injuries were comparatively lighter, albeit only relatively.

As night fell, a message spread throughout Haiyue City.

Three days later, everyone would leave Haiyue City by boat, and the entire region where Haiyue City was located would be abandoned.

This news caused a stir throughout Haiyue City.

Abandoning Haiyue City meant losing the most frontline position of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

No one lived in the region where Haiyue City was located because it was constantly under attack by sea monsters, making it too dangerous to inhabit.

However, abandoning this area meant that it would become the domain of the sea monsters in the future. Connected to this area were three other regions, where quite a number of people resided.

In other words, those three regions would suddenly become the new frontline.

Judging from the overall stance of the Alliance, it seems unlikely that they will organize such a large force to stop the sea monsters in the future. Could this indicate some sort of agreement with the sea monsters?

The conflict between humans and sea monsters is extremely p.r.o.nounced. In the past, sea monsters within the Thousand Feathers Alliance were all hunted down, but in the future, its entirely uncertain who will be hunting whom.

What can be foreseen is that the three regions connected to Haiyue City will likely undergo significant migration. After all, no one wants to face such a terrifying number of sea monsters.

As a result of this chain reaction, its likely that the territory of the Thousand Feathers Alliance will continue to shrink in the future, unless the Fourth-Tier monster kings among the sea monsters are eliminated to curb this situation.

Three days pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and the ma.s.sive s.h.i.+ps departed from Haiyue City.

The sects of Qin Haishan and his companions squeezed onto the same boat as the Primordial Sword Sect, while the sect where Tong Linyun belonged also sailed alongside the Primordial Sword Sect.

However, after an hour, Chen Fei suddenly appeared on the deck of the s.h.i.+p, gazing up at the sky where, at some point, a ma.s.sive burst of light erupted as if a second sun had appeared in the sky.

After a few moments, the terrifying sound of an explosion surged forth, accompanied by horrifying fluctuations. All the s.h.i.+ps were thrown into chaos, with some even breaking apart.

Chen Fei turned his head to look into the distance, where the sea monsters had appeared once again, much like they did three days ago when they besieged the city.

Go!

Chen Fei shouted lowly, using his elemental power to directly propel the s.h.i.+p towards the inner sea of the Alliance.

Qin Haishan and his companions appeared one after another, following Chen Feis lead and using their elemental power to push the s.h.i.+p forward.

The s.h.i.+ps dashed forward like arrows released from a bow, speeding rapidly towards their destination.

Tong Linyun controlled her sects s.h.i.+p, closely following Chen Fei. At this moment, she placed all her hopes on Chen Fei.

Chen Fei furrowed his brow tightly. He didnt know the details of the agreement between Min Yanlu and those sea monsters, but he figured that if they hadnt truly left the sea area around Haiyue City, then this siege wasnt over.

Beams of light radiated from Chen Feis forehead as he observed the surrounding areas. Sea monsters were stationed in every direction, already prepared for battle. Among all the seas within the Alliance, the sea in front of them had the highest concentration of sea monsters.

Chen Feis mind raced as he steered the s.h.i.+p away from the main fleet, heading towards a different direction. Tong Linyun hesitated for a moment but didnt falter, sticking closely behind Chen Fei..
