Azure Waves Pierce Bone-Which of Us Is the Fish? (4K)

Three hours later.

The several Sea Race Great Demon finally exhausted more than half of their Demonic Essence.

That's about enough.

Although they were arrogant, they also knew they couldn't easily use up all their Demonic Essence, lest they suffer a counterattack from Human Race cultivators.

As is customary, the next step is to retreat and rest in turn.

However, just as the swordfish turned to leave, Cloud Vortex True Monarch, who was in the very center, waved his hand.

The ten thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stone that had been prepared beforehand dissolved almost instantly, transforming into an exceptionally large amount of Spiritual Power that flowed into the great formation.

Half of it transformed into layers of restrictions, separating all the Sea Race Great Demon present.

The other half transformed into tens of thousands of Sword Qi, surging towards the Giant Octopus like ocean waves.

At the same time, the other True Lord also raised their hands and swallowed the elixirs to accelerate the recovery of their true essence.

Then, he activated his magical Law Artifact with all his might and pressed it against the nearest Sea Race Great Demon.

The Human Race ' sudden attack caught the Sea Race completely off guard.

They couldn't understand why these cultivators, who had been hiding inside for over a month, had suddenly become so ferocious.

"Great, no one's paying attention to me now."

The swordfish quickly surveyed its surroundings and, finding no Human Race cultivators approaching, immediately felt relieved.

It then turned sharply to the back, vigorously wagging its tail, trying to break through the formation first.

Whatever happened, let's get out of here first.

However, it did not notice that three almost invisible pale blue needles were flying towards it from beneath its body.

"Pfft!"

With a very slight sound of flesh tearing, it then disappeared into that thick body.

Because of its speed, the swordfish only realized it was being attacked after it was hit.

"How dare you!"

It suddenly roared and began to spin rapidly.

It then transformed into a large drill bit, using the upper jaw as its core.

Then it suddenly plunged downwards.

The three layers of restrictions in the middle were easily torn apart as if they were made of paper, revealing Xiao Chen was lying in ambush below.

It must be said that this swordfish's senses are truly sharp, as it was able to pinpoint the source of the attack so quickly under such circumstances.

Fortunately, the Four Symbols Suppressing Mountain Shield was activated in time after the attack was launched.

"Bang! Crack!"

First, there was a loud bang, and then a semi-transparent Black Tortoise Phantom appeared above Xiao Chen, blocking the attack.

However, after being subjected to such a sudden impact, a noticeable crack appeared on the Four Symbols Suppressing Mountain Shield.

Based on this situation, we estimate that we'll be unable to withstand it after at most two more attacks.

"Wow, that's fierce?"

Xiao Chen was somewhat surprised. In terms of destructive power alone, the swordfish's attack launched through its upper jaw was no less than that of Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator.

You could say this is actually an 'assassin' fish.

Fortunately, its physique was still a bit lacking, and it couldn't stop the Azure Wave Piercing Bone Needle.

Just as the swordfish swayed its body, preparing to repeat its previous trick...

Xiao Chen made a hand seal and shot out three more Flying Needle, which pierced into his body from the front first.

Immediately afterwards, two rounds of a total of six Azure Wave Piercing Bone Needle were detonated.

"Bang! Bang!... Bang!"

Six bright red blood flowers immediately burst open on the swordfish's body, interspersed with several small white fragments.

Upon closer inspection, they were clearly pieces of shattered bone.

The intense pain caused the swordfish to lose control and roll around on the spot.

It was impossible to aim an attack at Xiao Chen anymore.

Instead, it crashed headlong into another layer of restrictions in the great formation.

"Huh? We're going to win this over already?"

Xiao Chen was taken aback for a moment upon seeing this. "Am I that strong now?"

He quickly realized, "Hiss~, it seems that after the Azure Wave Piercing Bone Needle technique reached the 'Mastery' level, its practical effectiveness in combat is much stronger than when I first started."

He had used this tactic against the Mirror Reflection True Monarch before.

However, back then, when we were learning and applying what we learned, we didn't have such strong penetrating power that it could actually pierce deep into the bone marrow.

However, on the other hand, it might also be related to differences in cultivation level.

Mirror Reflection True Monarch was a genuine Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator, so he was naturally much more powerful than this Sea Fish that had only recently broken through.

However, in any case, the primary objective of today's ambush has been largely achieved.

The swordfish was severely injured, yet it still struggled and tried to fight back.

Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't let it fight to the death, so he didn't hesitate to use three more needles, killing it on the spot.

Even the fleeing Demon Infant was not spared; it was burned to ashes with a single palm strike.

Ah~!

With a loud scream, the swordfish was instantly annihilated.

It happened in the blink of an eye.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Xiao Chen and the swordfish have already exchanged several blows.

In fact, less than twenty breaths had passed since Cloud Vortex True Monarch activated the formation.

For the other True Lord or Great Demon in the vicinity, the battle has only just begun.

So when they suddenly heard a scream, they were all stunned and turned to look in their direction.

Then they saw Xiao Chen grab the long, sharp upper jaw with one hand, clearly having already killed the swordfish.

"What?"

Cloud Vortex True Monarch almost thought he was hallucinating.

The plan succeeded so soon after it was even started?

Was it that easy?

Although he was the one who first proposed the ambush plan, the best outcome he envisioned was that they could at least reduce the number of enemy soldiers before the other Great Demon Sea Race monsters could come to their aid.

In Cloud Vortex True Monarch's mind, the ideal timeframe is to finish within two quarters of an hour.

That is, achieving the goal before running out of those 10,000 Spirit Stone.

This way, we won't need to add any more Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.

He never expected that Xiao Chen would complete the plan almost a hundred times faster than he anticipated!

This... is simply unbelievable!

Cloud Vortex True Monarch's expression immediately changed.

Is this Newly Promoted Nascent Soul?

Honestly, he would believe you if you said this was the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

I understand now. No wonder the people from the Heavenly Dipper Sect were so polite to him.

Now he understood everything.

However, at this moment, it wasn't just Cloud Vortex True Monarch was deeply shocked.

In fact, the Gang Yuan True Monarch, who was standing to the side, wasn't much better off.

To him, Xiao Chen's ability to kill the swordfish solo was not an unexpected event, but rather a matter of course.

But isn't this a bit too fast?

To be fair, he had personally witnessed the enemy taking action on several occasions while on the West Front.

Moreover, the enemy was also a Fourth-tier Sea Fish that had only recently broken through to the next level.

Even at that time, it would still take some time to finish the fight.

How come Xiao Chen's strength has improved by leaps and bounds again in just a few months, to the point that he can easily crush them?

It should be noted that for Nascent Soul True Lord, improving their strength often requires a long period of accumulation.

Under normal circumstances, even if it's been several years, let alone a few months, there shouldn't be such a big change.

Gang Yuan True Monarch simply couldn't understand what Xiao Chen had gone through in the past few months to achieve such astonishing progress.

The idea of Han Chuan True Monarch was similar to his.

On the contrary, Rift Void True Monarch's eyes were filled with obvious envy. "Truly worthy of being Comprehension Path, your cultivation is indeed much stronger than mine."

He naturally attributed this difference to the different cultivation paths they had chosen.

Moreover, there is some merit to his idea.

For cultivators who Comprehension Path, as their understanding of the Great Dao deepens, their own strength will also increase significantly in tandem.

It can be said that as long as one's enlightenment is fast enough, it is entirely possible to achieve a state where one should look at someone with new eyes after three days of separation.

However, generally speaking, enlightenment is extremely difficult.

Most cultivators who pursue Comprehension Path often lag behind their peers in actual Cultivation Progress.

It's like sacrificing cultivation speed for a higher potential.

Rift Void True Monarch was naturally aware of this, but his thinking was quite simple.

Fellow Daoist Xiao is, after all, a genius among geniuses; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to break through to the Nascent Soul at such a young age.

Therefore, they cannot be treated the same as ordinary cultivators.

Perhaps this trip will bring some sudden enlightenment, leading to a rapid leap in strength.

This is perfectly normal. He had read many Ancient Books within the sect, and many of the legendary senior cultivators mentioned there had similar experiences.

Of course, there's something that Rift Void True Monarch is currently unaware of.

Those Ancient Books he saw had actually undergone some embellishment by later generations.

After all, it's a record of one's own ancestors, so one should definitely focus on the good aspects.

When the next Sect Master of the Heavenly Dipper Sect is in charge of writing his biography, he, as the Rift Void Ancestor, will also be recognized as a 'genius' cultivator.

Of course, that's a long time from now.

Right now, Rift Void True Monarch is still admiring Xiao Chen's exceptional comprehension. "If I could have half of Daoist Xiao's intelligence, my path to immortality would be much smoother."

He must learn more from Xiao Chen in the future and strive to be influenced by his surroundings.

Not only were the Human Race taken aback.

The Sea Race found the reality before them even more unbelievable.

The closest fish to Xiao Chen was one of the grouper, which, upon seeing this, immediately panicked. "Oh no, an ambush!"

Realizing that the swordfish had perished, it didn't even have time to examine the situation closely.

Instinctively, it opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and instantly shattered the restriction on its left side.

As the restriction was destroyed, the Formation Power also weakened significantly.

The grouper felt a sense of lightness and seized the opportunity to run outside.

To be fair, its reaction was remarkably quick.

However, there are fish that react even faster.

That's right, it was that Six-fin Barracuda in the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

The instant it turned its head, its pupils immediately contracted into thin black lines. "Hmm? A new face?"

Just now, when Cloud Vortex True Monarch suddenly launched his attack, it was curious about where the other party got his confidence from.

Now I understand, reinforcements have arrived.

However, judging from their aura, the newcomer seemed to be only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

"Something's wrong, what's going on?"

The Six-fin Barracuda didn't even have time to see how the swordfish died.

However, it knew very well that even if it took action itself, it might not be able to outrun its opponent.

In other words, there are other Human Race lurking in the shadows, yet to be revealed.

There must be something strange about Xiao Chen, and he cannot be treated as an ordinary Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.

In short, the best course of action right now is to break free from the formation, and then decide what to do next based on the situation.

Thinking of this, it immediately swayed its body and transformed into a streak of light, rushing outwards.

As a Sailfish, its greatest pride is its speed.

Few enemies of the same level can keep up with it.

It is several times faster than grouper.

However, the Han Chuan True Monarch had been watching it closely all along.

Upon seeing this, he immediately activated his spiritual shield to protect the surrounding array restrictions, while simultaneously raising his hand to release two Talisman to block the attack with all his might.

Based on their respective cultivation levels, Gang Yuan True Monarch and Rift Void True Monarch each faced off against another grouper and the Red Flower Crab.

Cloud Vortex True Monarch continued to focus on manipulating the great formation to suppress the Giant Octopus.

Ironically, the grouper closest to Xiao Chen was freed up and successfully darted outside the formation.

After realizing that it had broken free from the array's constraints, it turned around to look back and observe the current situation.

However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that the newly arrived Human True Lord had vanished!

"Huh? Where is everyone?"

The grouper's eyes widened immediately. Where had that new face gone?

Suddenly, on a whim, it turned around and saw that Xiao Chen had appeared behind it at some point.

Broken!

The grouper finally realized that this new face was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Seeing that the Giant Octopus had gone too far and was being suppressed by the powerful formation, they were unable to help them.

It immediately felt a sense of retreat.

He immediately roared, "You mere Nascent Soul Early Stage dares to chase me? Prepare to die!"

As he spoke, he spat out a black water ball about ten feet in size from his mouth.

The water sphere grew rapidly in the wind, reaching a size of several hundred feet in the blink of an eye, before exploding with a loud "boom!"

Instantly, it transformed into a thousand-foot-long, pitch-black Water Curtain, closing in on Xiao Chen from above, below, left, and right simultaneously.

It appears to be some kind of trap or poisonous tactic.

At the same time, taking advantage of the black Water Curtain obscuring their vision and Divine Sense.

The grouper immediately swung its tail skillfully and darted away along the left side.

Not only that, it deliberately plunged diagonally downwards into the sea, submerging its entire body in the water.

This allows them to take advantage of their superior swimming ability as Sea Fish and achieve the fastest escape speed.

As a fish, it is difficult for Human Race cultivators to catch it in the water if it is determined to escape.

Even with the cultivation of Water Escape, most Human Race cultivators still cannot compare to the innate talent of the Sea Race.

However, to the grouper's utter surprise, Xiao Chen not only mastered Water Escape, but seemed to be extremely proficient at them.

At this moment, walking on the water's surface was actually three times faster than walking in the water!

Despite being delayed by the Water Curtain, it set off a full three breaths later than the other creature.

However, in less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, they directly caught up with the gap between the two.

The grouper turned around to observe the pursuit, and upon seeing what it saw, its eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

No, which of us is the fish?

To make matters worse, Xiao Chen seemed completely unperturbed, even managing to Hand Seals the Azure Wave Piercing Bone Needle- Penetrating Needle while flying away.

The Law Technique in the opponent's hand was about to be completed.

The grouper had no choice but to abandon its escape plan and stop to prepare for a desperate fight.

If Xiao Chen isn't killed in this situation, it definitely won't be able to leave today.
