Volume 7 Chapter 83 - Chapter Eighty-Three: Murder (1/2)
This pause was for only a minuscule of time to a cultivator like her, and just less than a thousandth of the time to flick a finger for an ordinary person. In the next moment, this Jiaodong Commandery monster did not hesitate in channeling her vital energy into the bone whistle hanging in front of her chest.
The serpents in the ocean lived together in groups. While they were not as powerful as the land dragons, there were enormous numbers of serpents who lived together, and they were harder to deal with than the land dragons. This bone whistle was made from the spine of the strongest soaring snake in the group. Back then, when one wanted to kill the leading soaring snake, they needed to fight against the power of the entire group. After the strongest soaring snake died back then, it was not possible for such a leader to appear in the group again. So the whistle was something that these soaring snakes feared the most.
When she put a thread of vital energy into the bone whittle, what she activated was not just the sound that Jiaodong Commandery subconsciously made the soaring snakes follow through training, but also the energy of the king among them.
In this group, where the weak was eaten, this innate terror was more terrifying than any medicine. So Zheng An, this old Jiaodong Commandery monster, thought that even if Qing Yaoyin used some medicine to control these soaring snakes, these snakes would go back and attack Qing Yaoyin. Other than that moment of shock at the start, she did not feel any disappointment or fear.
However, things did not go as she expected.
When the bone whistle hanging from her chest started to make a shrill sound, as the presence of the soaring snake leader exploded, the dozen soaring snakes which passed through the dust mountains did not hesitate at all. The energies in their bodies surged out without anything held back. They summoned the clouds and rain from all directions, and threw it up into the sky.
Great sounds of crashes exploded into the air, like hundreds of divine ships colliding in the air. Drops of rain bigger than a fist seemed to fill the area covered by the dust mountains. Then in the next moment, these drops were crushed by violent power, and turned to fine powder. Water quickly accumulated on the ground.
At this moment, the water which came down was likely more than what had rained in many past decades. Strangely, it did not pass above everyone’s knees. After quickly rising up, it suddenly vented out.
In the sight of the cultivators outside the dust mountains, a true circle of waves appeared on the perimeter of the formation which washed out in all directions.
In the air, Zheng An moved up hundreds of feet in the air, face pale. Her body was trembling slightly, some vital energy moving uncontrollably through her meridians, creating some damage to her body, and for the first time in many years, she tasted blood in the back of her throat. But compared to her trivial injuries, the effect on her mind was even greater.
These soaring snakes were not dead, and she had lost complete control of them!

The people on the ground looked at the shocked Jiaodong Commandery monsters in the air. No one attacked, but the “World Holding Ball” she created with all her power was easily blocked like this. Even Qing Yaoyin’s cicada temporarily avoided the terrifying energy collisions. Everyone understood her emotions right now.
“Very good luck.” Ding Ning could not help but smile. Then he said softly to Qing Yaoyin and the others, “The Master of Fire has come as well.”
“The Master Of Fire?”
Zhangsun Qianxue, Qing Yaoyin and the others frowned. While they could not feel the presence of the Master of Fire right now, since Ding Ning said so, then it would not be wrong. They immediately felt lucky.
The Master of Fire had appeared at the last moment of the battle in Changling, and then grew famous. He cultivated a strange method. The vital energy gathered the primal energies of the universe to form a fire that seemed able to burn all energies in the world.
