Chapter 342 - I’m Willing to Take Care Of The People! (1/2)
“Ao Yi… Ao Yi!”
Outside the East Ocean Dragon Palace, the dragon race and the Sea Clan’s rebels were fighting. Hundreds of thousands of living beings were surrounded and killed in the sea within a radius of hundreds of kilometers. Layers of waves were stirred on the surface of the sea.
That place was only one of the dozen or so battlefields outside the East Ocean. The Sea Clan’s rebel army seemed to have gone crazy. The dragon race’s defense line, which was built by the Immortal Flood Dragon troops and the prawn soldiers and crabs, also felt quite pressured. Ao Yi was there. He led hundreds of elite Immortal Flood Dragon troops and fought among the enemies.
When he suddenly heard Li Changshou’s voice transmission, Ao Yi immediately retreated into the Immortal Flood Dragon troops and took out a brocade pouch. The brocade pouch opened, and a paper effigy jumped out and transformed into a young Daoist… “Brother Sect Master?”
Seeing that the paper effigy was frowning, Ao Yi hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?” Li Changshou did not waste any time. He said firmly, “The Great Daoist Master of the North Ocean Sea Eye has pa.s.sed away. Even though the dragon race is injured, the sea eye is fine. Although the other party’s attacks are powerful, there is no one powerful. The East Ocean’s eye is in danger! Quickly inform your father to get all the experts of the East Ocean to seal the universe near the Sea Eye of the East Ocean!”
Ao Yi was clearly stunned. However, he quickly took out a jade token. However, before he could activate the restrictions on the jade token, the hundreds of thousands of living beings that were fighting there stopped for a moment. Then, the entire sea began to shake gently. The Great Dao trembled, and the universe trembled! Li Changshou and Ao Yi looked at each other. Ao Yi’s delicate face turned pale. “Brother…” “Don’t be afraid. It’s just that the first step was taken too late.”
Li Changshou smiled slightly. His smile was filled with confidence. “It’s fine. You can transfer half of the experts of the dragon race here to the Sea Eye to provide support. There are many Ancient Battle Dragons in the Sea Eye. They would definitely be able to last for a while. Don’t be anxious. I already have a way to deal with this matter. Bring this paper effigy with me. I’ll tell you what to do next at any time.”
“Yes!”
Ao Yi’s eyes became calmer. The horn on his forehead shone slightly, and a dragon’s roar echoed in the distance. The dozens of dragon experts who were chopping melons and vegetables immediately turned around and transformed into azure dragons, speeding towards the place where the universe had just trembled.
Li Changshou’s paper effigy had already transformed into a paper effigy and returned to Ao Yi’s sleeve.
Ao Yi handed the authority to the Deputy General and transformed into the Azure Dragon’s main body to chase after the clansmen in front of him…
At the same time, Li Changshou was sighing softly in his heart at the intersection between the South Ocean and the East Ocean.
He was just comforting Ao Yi.
Li Changshou had a way to deal with it, but it was too late for him to use it…
The Western Sect’s revenge this time had used the true foundation of the Western Sect. The partial strength of the East Ocean’s eye must have been imbalanced at this moment.
Based on the situation that the paper effigy had captured, the situation was completely out of the control of the dragon race. After the cosmic turbulence that had affected everything within 50,000 kilometers just now, more than ten cracks appeared near the East Ocean’s eye. Flood dragons with black scales that were full of blood energy flew out. Asura Secret Technique, Blood Sea Corruption! The flood dragons surged out continuously. It was unknown how many of them there were. Among the black-scaled flood dragons were six-armed and eight-armed Blood Sea Asuras. That was not all… Hundreds of black figures in cloaks appeared within a 50-kilometer radius around the sea eye. Together with the Western experts who had been fighting previously, they began to suppress the dragons of the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Demons, Asuras, ancient ferocious beasts…
The forces of the Western Sect which had been hiding in the dark, had gathered in the East Ocean at this moment!
Seeing that, Li Changshou could only think to himself, There are experts in the Western Sect.
The demons, Asuras, and ferocious beasts that were plagued by negative karma had all been abandoned by the Heavenly Dao. Even if they had to shoulder a portion of the karma from destroying the seal of the Sea Eye, their situation would be no different from now.
The Western Sect had never admitted that those ferocious spirits belonged to the spiritual mountain. The matter today would not implicate the Western Sect, but it could deter those who refused to submit to the Western Sect in the future.
At the same time, he could also take away the acc.u.mulation of the dragon race…
Did I underestimate the Western Sect previously? Li Changshou reflected on himself. However, he realized that he did not underestimate the Western Sect. Instead, he had always been cautious. Even if the situation required him to stand up and attack the Western Sect, he would leave a way out. The reason why he lost control this time was because the Western Sect was strong enough and had been united.
Secondly, the Western Sect’s style of doing things had changed drastically. In the past, they were arrogant and complacent, but now, they were ruthless and decisive.
Li Changshou really wanted to know who the expert from the Western Sect who was presiding over the battle was… Did the Saint plan it personally? If that was the case, he should have received the reminder from the Grand Pure One. The battle at that moment had clearly not reached the level of a Saint.
Li Changshou suppressed those thoughts in his heart and kept thinking of countermeasures. He had already used the Water Escape technique to its limit. However, he had already seen the situation in the East Ocean.
The dragon race had fallen! A large number of Black Scaled Blood Flood Dragons surged out from the cracks and headed straight for the eye of the sea.
In the deep pit of the Sea Eye, dozens of old dragons flew out from the edge and took the initiative to fight.
However, when the old dragons went out, the Sea Eye trembled slightly. At that moment, the dragons blocking the Sea Eye were under even more pressure! The experts of the dragon race who were fighting in the periphery wanted to return to their aid. However, the Asura and demon race experts faced them head-on. They attacked from the front and back to completely cut off the reinforcements of the dragon race experts.
Although the ancient battle dragons were powerful and ferocious, they did not dare to unleash their dragon power in the eye of the sea. Secondly, there were too many black-scaled flood dragons. After fighting for a while, the old dragons were already covered in wounds.
A large colony of ants could kill an elephant. Many flood dragons could kill dragons too. The blood energy surrounding the black-scaled flood dragon seemed to be poisonous. It continuously seeped into the wounds of the old dragons… b The defensive line formed by the old dragons was almost broken in an instant. The battle dragons could only retreat quickly. On the Sea Eye, they used their life source to create a thick layer of protective barrier.
The many array formations set up here had been destroyed when the first wave of Western ferocious spirits attacked.
At that moment Li Changshou who was looking at it as an outsider, could tell that the Western Sect’s scheme this time was closely linked to the three battles. They were conspiring and plotting. The main reason why the dragon race was so pa.s.sive at that moment was that the dragon race did not follow Li Changshou’s arrangements and used all their strength, which caused them to be trapped by the other party… Li Changshou understood that. At that moment, he was already thinking about what he could do if the Sea Eye was really broken. In the East Ocean, the black-scaled flood dragons charged forward one after another. They collided and bit like mad demons. The temporary array formation was about to collapse. Li Changshou could not bear to continue observing that place. Suddenly, a loud dragon roar sounded from the side…
An old azure dragon knocked away dozens of black shadows that were surrounding him. In an instant, it became hundreds of thousands of feet long. Its huge dragon tail swept past, and half of the black flood dragons above the sea eye were instantly swept away! Dragon King, Ao Guang! At that moment, a burly black figure jumped out of a Cosmic rift.
The black shadow expanded rapidly in the seawater and turned into a three-headed black flood dragon. His huge body was not inferior to the Dragon King of the East Ocean. He knocked the Dragon King away from the eye of the sea and the two quickly fought at the bottom of the sea.
One after another, huge black-scaled flood dragons appeared above the Sea Eye and rushed towards it! Li Changshou seemed to have heard the angry roars of the black-scaled flood dragons. He seemed to have heard the indignation that they had been feeling for countless years… They were only soldiers carefully selected by the dragon race. They were only guards of the dragon race and servants of the True Dragon. They did not deserve any dignity. The arrogant dragon disciples could take their lives at will.
No matter how high their cultivation levels were or how strong they were, they had to kneel in front of those useless dragons… In fact, when their strength reached a certain level, they would be crippled and turn into dragons. They would reproduce and provide more dragon eggs for the dragon race. Most of the dragon eggs and their children had become useless trash. They had become the first targets for the Black Scaled Flood Dragons, who had outstanding potential, to fight when they grew up…
They were whipped and cursed at. They had to endure and bear with it.
They were weapons of the dragon race, but they were also living beings with flesh and blood! Living beings! During the battle, the three-headed flood dragon was no match for the Dragon King. It quickly lost and one of its necks was bitten by the Dragon King! “Ao Guang!” The three-headed flood dragon raised its head and roared, “Your dragon race will definitely end in the hands of the flood dragon!”
Then, the giant dragon struggled violently. Its left neck was severed, and blood splattered everywhere! The three-headed flood dragon took the opportunity to turn around and charge into the deep pit of the Sea Eye again! The dragon king’s body swayed and immediately rushed forward to stop Ao Guang. However, boundless blood energy surged out from the three-headed flood dragon’s body. The blood energy condensed into a blood-colored azure dragon and stopped Ao Guang for two breaths! That bit of time was enough. The Dragon King’s eyes were filled with despair! The three-headed giant dragon’s huge body fell rapidly towards the sea eye!
The black-scaled flood dragons turned into black light and flew over. They surrounded and entangled around the giant flood dragon, as if they had become one with it. In the blink of an eye, they turned the black flood dragon into a huge black ball! The array formation was broken with a single touch! The dragons in the Sea Eye roared. The bodies of each dragon burst out with intense light, as if they were connected to a huge net… The ten-thousand-feet azure dragon that Ao Guang had transformed into let out a furious roar that shook the East Ocean. It ignored its own safety and charged towards the giant flood dragon, but it was already too late to stop it… Suddenly, a Water-Fire Taiji Painting appeared above the sea eye and quickly condensed in the seawater! Li Changshou was shocked when he saw that. The Great Daoist Master had arrived! At that moment, a sword beam flashed in the criss-crossing Cosmic Crack above the sea eye. A sword that was s.h.i.+ning with silver light slashed the Water-Fire Taiji Painting that the Great Daoist Master had condensed! Wherever the sword beam pa.s.sed, the universe cracked again… The power of one sword could destroy the universe!
Li Changshou was still wondering what that sword was when the PaG.o.da Master shouted excitedly in his heart.
“Primordial Ma.s.sacre Sword! d.a.m.n, that’s the Primordial Ma.s.sacre Sword! Quick, go up and let it slash me twice. How many years has it been since I felt pain!?!” Li Changshou was rendered speechless. Before he could complain, Li Changshou stopped using his escape technique. At that moment, he was already near the East Ocean Dragon Palace. He was only tens of thousands of kilometers away from the ocean eye.
However, he was already half a step late. The huge meatball that the black-scaled flood dragon had formed had already broken through the “dragon body dam” at the eye of the sea. The azure dragon wailed, and the world changed color. Boundless sanguine light suddenly appeared in the eye of the sea, and extremely powerful currents surged out! At that moment, the five continents of the Primordial World trembled slightly. What else could he do? Li Changshou stood there and fell into deep thought. His figure flashed and appeared above the East Ocean. He turned into a white cloud and looked towards the eye of the sea. Over there, a water ball that was thousands of kilometers in diameter slowly rose. If one looked down from the sky, it would look as if the East Ocean had turned into a spring, and the eye of the sea was the center of the spring. Boundless seawater surged out from the ocean’s eye… His Dao heart trembled, and a blurry image appeared in Li Changshou’s heart. The Sea Eye of the East Ocean erupted, and huge waves rose in the East Ocean. They engulfed the entire East Continent and most of the South Continent. The living beings there were in misery!
Does the Heavenly Dao not care?
Li Changshou looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with confusion. Then, he understood.
The polluted spring was originally condensed from the negative karma of splitting open the sky. It also contained the resentment of the world towards living beings. This was the karma of all living beings.
Only by enduring such karma for the living beings could they get rid of the negative karma that they suffered for shattering the Primordial World back then…
What can I do now?
Li Changshou pondered quickly. If the tragedy that he had seen just now really happened, the Saint of the Dao Sect, who was closely related to the human race, would definitely have appeared… In other words, he definitely had a way to block the Ocean Eye.
Could it be that the dragon race is going to sacrifice a large number of dragons today? Are they going to repeat the tragedy from the ancient times? If that was the case, it would be useless for him to submit to the Heavenly Courts. Wouldn’t he be speaking ill of the dragon race… Suddenly…
“Brother Sect Master… The Sea Eye is broken.” Li Changshou’s Dao heart tightened. He diverted half of his attention to Ao Yi. The dozens of azure dragons that followed Ao Yi were floating in the seawater. Their eyes were filled with confusion, and a few images appeared in their minds.
Li Changshou’s paper effigy transformed into a young Daoist and appeared beside Ao Yi. Ao Yi subconsciously returned to his human form. His eyes were red, and he suddenly shed two drops of tears.
“Brother…”
Ao Yi subconsciously grabbed the side. Li Changshou immediately raised his hand and grabbed Ao Yi’s palm. “I’m here.”
“The Sea Eye is broken.” Ao Yi’s breathing seemed to be a little difficult. He said in a low voice, “I just saw my father trying his best to block the Sea Eye, but the Sea Eye kept breaking open. His scales were covered in blood… I also saw the waves engulf the land. Countless living beings on the land were either dead or injured. Countless bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning struck our people and turned them into ashes… I saw countless clansmen rus.h.i.+ng towards the Sea Eye, but they were torn apart by it…”
Indeed.
The will of the Heavenly Dao was filled by the dragon race with their lives. It was the will of the heavens, the Heavenly Dao. Even though the dragon race had already submitted to the Heavenly Courts and was considered to be working for the Heavenly Dao, they could not change their destiny…
“Brother!”
Ao Yi’s eyes were no longer filled with confusion. There were tears on his delicate face, but he smiled at Li Changshou.
He released Li Changshou’s palm and took two steps back. He bowed to Li Changshou.
“It’s been so long… Thank you.” After saying that, he immediately turned around. Ao Yi let out a loud dragon roar. The dozens of azure dragons around him saw the same scene and sped forward without hesitation.
However… just as Ao Yi was about to transform into his dragon form, his feet swayed, and his eyes closed weakly. He lay in the seawater. The azure dragons in front turned around. Li Changshou had already walked forward and supported Ao Yi. “Everyone, if you trust me, the Water G.o.d, I will protect Ao Yi’s life. I will take on the responsibility that Ao Yi wants to shoulder!”
The dozens of azure dragons surged with light. They each transformed into human forms and bowed deeply to Li Changshou. Then, without saying a word, they transformed into azure dragons and pounced at the eye of the sea at full speed. They were not the only ones… Thousands of azure dragons flew out of the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Most of them did not have high combat power, but they did not look back… In the battlefields of the East Ocean, the azure dragons ignored their injuries and left the battle. They turned around and flew towards the eye of the ocean… It was like a moth flying into a flame, but it was a lucid moth.
In the South Ocean, the North Ocean, and the West Ocean, the dragon race, which could more or less rush to the East Ocean to provide support, immediately rushed towards the East Ocean Sea…
At that moment, the culprits, the ferocious living beings from the Western Sect, spread out in a dignified manner. They used various teleportation arrays and Cosmic rifts to quickly leave the East Ocean Eye.
At the place where the battle between the North Ocean and South Ocean was, the experts of the Western Sect abandoned a small portion of the cannon fodder and quickly retreated.
The seabed not far from the East Ocean Dragon Palace suddenly collapsed. The biggest treasure vault of the East Ocean Dragon Palace had disappeared… The Western Sect had achieved their goal.
“Have they retreated…”
Li Changshou suppressed his anger. He had to admit that the mastermind behind today’s battle was really a ruthless person.
It was useless to lament. He should think about how to help the dragon race. Li Changshou scanned his surroundings with his immortal senses and saw the shadows of the dragon race that had pounced on the enemies but were instantly pushed away and torn apart in the sea eye…
He could not stop them at all. However, he still charged forward with all his might.
