Chapter 294 – Water God’s Mystery Codex (1/2)
The Natural Barrier, also named the Sea Territory of Evil, covered a vast area of several thousand isles, each housing at least one high-rank Yao.
Currently, in addition to over several thousand high-rank Yao, there were countless mid-rank and low-rank Yao present. One moment they were looking at West, the next moment their eyes had already turned to Aliya, seemingly considering which one was easier to handle.
If such a huge number of Yao monsters attacked at once, they could even insta-kill a Celestial boss. However, facing West, who had already burned his flame core, they all hesitated, terrified of being dragged down by a fearless man who was nearing his death. As a consequence, they tacitly set Aliya as their target.
“This is a personal grudge between you two, so we, Sea Territory of Evil, won’t interfere. However, as a punishment for trespassing the barrier without permission, regardless of who lives and who dies in the end, the Water God’s Mystery Codex must be submitted to us.”
An old voice rang out from a sudden whirlpool. Hearing this voice, the several thousand high-rank Yaos were visibly shaken, while those mid-rank and low-rank ones prostrated on the ground as their bodies trembled nonstop.
“Celestial boss, Six-Eyed Cyan-Pupil Toad,” West informed Fatty when he heard the voice. He seemed very knowledgeable about the Natural Barrier.
“My lord, he is fire-attribute, the mortal enemy of us water-attributes. You’re really planning to just stand and watch him bully me?!” Aliya yelled.
“You mean the fire-attribute must be bullied by you water monsters?” Another voice came from undersea. The waters in that area surged a little as an eerie flame suddenly flared on the surface of the sea.
“Celestial boss Ice Fire Doublehead Jiao, evolved from Ice Fire Doublehead Python. It must be the fire head that spoke just now,” West again instantly introduced the voice owner to Fatty.
Two Celestial bosses just casually came out like that, clearly showing how deep the waters ran here within the barrier. And what’s more, it showed how valuable the Water God’s Mystery Codex was to lure out two Celestial bosses.
“Alright, stop wasting time and just fight it out, right here and now. Before we have a result, no one is allowed to leave,” declared the Six-Eyed Cyan-Pupil Toad.
Whoosh! The numerous Yao monsters encircled West and Aliya, leaving open only a field one kilometer in diameter. They obviously wanted the two to settle their life and death here and disallowed any more running.
“Lil’ Bro, take care of yourself.” West set Fatty down and quickly flew toward Aliya. “Aliya, it’s been too many years. Let us finally have a fight to the death today.”
“West, does it really have to be like this, not stopping until we all die?” Aliya coldly said.
“Haha, hahaha!” West suddenly burst into laughter. “When you killed Feiya, I swore to myself that no matter what hardship I had to go through, I would definitely kill you to avenge her. Cut the crap and come, Aliya. Flamebone Prison!” Along with West’s shout, flaming white bones instantly appeared around Aliya and trapped her inside without a gap.
“Oh how I loathe!” Aliya looked around at the Yao monsters with venomous hatred. Then, her body collapsed in a strange manner like water, and seeped out of the prison into the sea.
Hoooo! A ten-meter-tall water sprite suddenly appeared on that spot. It stretched out its arms, blasting several magic spells at West.
“Stop embarrassing yourself with such meager skills.” West pounced and simply tore the sprite in two, which melted and merged back into a puddle of water at his feet.
“Explode!” West raised his hand, sending a spinning fire lotus at where Aliya had disappeared. As the lotus exploded, scorching air billowed out in all directions, and Aliya’s wretched shriek echoed from under the sea.
“WEEESST!” Aliya emerged from the waters. It was impossible to flee with the area being sealed off by the monsters. She had no choice but to engage in a life-and-death struggle with West.
All of a sudden, pure water mist mixed with a chilling cold breath streamed out from Aliya’s body. Her face began to twist abnormally.
“Ahaha, hahahaha!” West burst into crazed laughter. He didn’t make a move and just kept laughing.
With her back to the wall, Aliya had finally set off her water core. To entities like them who were composed of a pure element, when the core was smashed, the best result was they became heavily injured, and the worst was death. West was delighted to see either.
“West, there you got it.” After triggering her water core, Aliya’s power rapidly inflated to the same extent as West. With neither sorrow nor joy on her face, she looked at West quietly.
“Great! Let’s have our final battle,” finally having laughed enough, West waved his hand and said lightly.
“Okay.” Aliya extended her hand and the Water God’s Mystery Codex flew out. “Let’s finish this quickly.”
The leather cover of the Water God’s Mystery Codex slowly opened. An extremely pure and grand breath emanated.
“This… The breath of Water God?” The Six-Eyed Cyan-Pupil Toad’s old voice echoed.
“That’s right. This codex accompanied Water God Claudia when she became a god, the same as the artifact Water God Palace.” Aliya gazed at the codex, her eyes flashed with a trace of regret before they instantly resumed calmness.
The Water God’s Mystery Codex slowly flipped pages until the last one, where a cyan light poured out.
