Sea Serpent King

The deep sea, a place more than two thousand meters below the seabed.

In the dark trench, a colossal creature meandered, stretching nearly two hundred meters from end to end.

A pair of dark blue snake eyes opened, gleaming with an eerie light. "Who dares to slaughter my men on my turf?"

During this period, many Lord Level sea monsters died in the seas it ruled. Its subordinates reported this situation to it, and as the leader, it naturally could not sit idly by.

Too many of its Lord Level minions dying will greatly affect its rule over this sea area.

The long, serpentine body rose from the trench, creating whirlpools, and then floated towards the surface.

At this moment, on an island, Xu Qing stood on a coconut tree.

Three kilometers away, the corpse of a Lord Level sea monster floated on the sea.

"It's been so long, and those two King Level monsters still haven't shown up. They're really patient," Xu Qing muttered.

He had already hunted down more than 560 Lord Level sea monsters, and there were significantly fewer Lord Level in this area. Even so, the two King Level monsters still didn't make a move.

His archery skills have been honed to perfection by battling these Lord Level sea monsters, and he can now hit the bullseye every time at a distance of three thousand meters.

Now, Xu Qing can clearly feel that his archery skills have reached a bottleneck. If he wants to continue to break through, he must first improve his cultivation level, break through to the War God Level, and become an existence that Beyond War God of War.

"It seems we have to continue," Xu Qing thought to himself.

In that case, he would have no choice but to continue hunting; he refused to believe that the two King Level monsters would really ignore him.

As Xu Qing was thinking this, an unfamiliar aura emerged, and a slight tremor came from the seawater.

"Hmm?" Xu Qing's gaze sharpened as he looked at the distant sea, where a huge dark shadow was becoming clearer.

"Here he comes! Speak of the devil and he appears! Well then, let me give you a big welcome gift, but don't die!" Xu Qing leaped up and stepped on the God-Splitting Silk to a position a thousand meters in the sky.

From his vantage point, he could clearly see a massive, 200-meter-long, serpentine black shadow swimming in the sea.

Meanwhile, many sea monsters followed.

"Whether it's the East Sea Azure Dragon or the Sea Serpent King, it doesn't matter which one it is, this gift still needs to be given," Xu Qing laughed, but his eyes sharpened.

Then, he grabbed the seven metal arrows, nocked them, and the bow was fully drawn. The seven metal arrows gleamed with a cold light, like a flower of iron about to bloom.

A sharp aura emanated from Xu Qing, causing the air to hiss.

Xu Qing looked down at the sea and entered a state of Mind's Eye. In an instant, the Heaven and Earth turned into an ink painting, with countless colors flowing and swirling.

The sea is a deep blue, like a vast scroll, dotted with many other colors.

And those colors, some represent life, some represent islands, and some represent other things...

Among them, a huge serpentine outline appears on the deep blue scroll, with vibrant greenery filling the center.

On the serpentine body, there were several places where the green light shone brightly, full of vitality.

Splash!

Finally, the enormous, serpentine creature emerged from the sea, its massive body rising above the surface and floating on the water.

It was a giant, bluish-black snake with a purple belly. Its scales shimmered with a cold metallic light. Its head was triangular, its eyes glowed with an eerie light, and its fangs were long and curved. Its forked tongue flickered, making it terrifying.

It is the Sea Serpent King, a King Level monster that, along with the East Sea Azure Dragon of the East Sea, rules the East Sea region.

Like the human beings Beyond War God, they can now take to the air and are no longer greatly restricted by the environment.

"Where is it?" the Sea Serpent King asked his subordinates, asking for the location of the enemy who had wantonly slaughtered his men.

"My lord, my men have seen a human on that island ahead," a Lord Level sea monster replied.

Although sea monsters cannot speak, they can communicate with each other through special radio waves.

"Humans? How dare they! Mere humans trespass on my territory! Find them!" The Sea Serpent King was furious. Since when did humans dare to run wild on the land of these sea monsters?

"Yes, Your Majesty," all the sea monsters surged toward the island.

Little did they know, Xu Qing, whom they were looking for, was currently thousands of meters above them, and had already locked onto the Sea Serpent King.

"Sea Serpent King, here's a big gift for you, catch it!" Xu Qing murmured.

As soon as he finished speaking, seven metal arrows left the bow and flew away, transforming into seven shooting stars that fell silently from the sky.

The arrow, traveling at more than twenty times the speed of sound, instantly tore through a thousand meters of space. Its sharp aura made the Sea Serpent King suddenly feel a deadly killing intent.

But before it could react, it was hit by an arrow.

Pfft!

Blood blossoms bloomed one after another, and several bloody holes appeared on the Sea Serpent King's serpentine body, piercing through it.

In Xu Qing's eyes, he hit all the brilliant green lights on the Sea Serpent King's body.

Hiss!

The Sea Serpent King's pupils trembled, turning into slits, before it roared to the sky, immense pain engulfing its mind.

Its head, its vital spot, its heart... all its fatal parts were attacked in an instant and suffered fatal damage.

As it howled in agony, the Sea Serpent King continued to spew blood from its mouth, for there was a bloody hole in its head.

Even though it was a King Level monster, with a physical strength far exceeding that of Lord Level monster, it still couldn't withstand those few arrows.

Boom!

The Sea Serpent King's enormous body crashed heavily into the sea, creating waves hundreds of meters high. The surrounding sea monsters were swept away by the waves, some even exploding.

"King!" The sea monsters were stunned; their king had been attacked!

The Sea Serpent King's body writhed in the seawater, blood flowing from the holes in its body, quickly staining a large area of the sea red.

In Xu Qing's Mind's Eye, the life force within the Sea Serpent King was rapidly draining away; the few brilliant green spots were growing dimmer and dimmer, as were the rest of the body.

"Looks like you couldn't accept my greeting gift either," Xu Qing said coldly as he exited his Mind's Eye state and looked at the Sea Serpent King writhing in pain.

The Sea Serpent King didn't dodge a single one of the seven arrows he fired.

Judging from this, the Sea Serpent King is not very strong. Even if it is King Level being, it is at the bottom of the King Level.

What about the other East Sea Azure Dragon? It rules this East Sea region together with the Sea Serpent King. Is its strength greater than the Sea Serpent King's, or are they evenly matched?

If it's a draw, then a death sentence is already warranted; if one is slightly stronger, then they can struggle a little longer.

Time ticked by, and the Sea Serpent King struggled incessantly in the seawater, for it could feel its life force rapidly slipping away, and it was about to die.

It didn't know who had attacked it, but it knew that person was very strong and that they were specifically targeting it.

"Insidious humans!" The Sea Serpent King was unwilling to accept this; his body grew weaker and weaker, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred.

Finally, the Sea Serpent King stopped struggling. Its two-hundred-meter-long body floated on the sea surface, like a mountain range, exuding a faint sense of oppression.

The surrounding sea was entirely blood-red, but the sea monsters dared not approach.

The deterrent effect of higher life levels acts on the bloodline and soul, which they simply cannot resist and dare not make any overstepping moves, even for Lord Level.

Xu Qing descended from the sky and landed on the head of the Sea Serpent King. Looking at the serpent's body, which was two hundred meters long, he clicked his tongue in amazement, "These sea monsters are all huge!"

Land-based King Level monsters are generally much smaller than ocean-based King Level monsters.

"I wonder if the East Sea Azure Dragon will come to collect the body after learning that the Sea Serpent King is dead? Since it's a monster, King Level monsters can still devour each other, right?"

"If I were the East Sea Azure Dragon, I wouldn't let such an opportunity pass me by," Xu Qing said, stroking his chin.

Of course, the East Sea Azure Dragon wouldn't appear rashly. Now that the Sea Serpent King is dead, it will definitely become vigilant and then try to take the Sea Serpent King's corpse.

"Well, in that case, I'll lure it into the trap. Once it realizes there's no danger, it'll definitely be unable to hold back," Xu Qing pondered for a moment.

Then, Xu Qing began digging at the location of the bloody hole at the Sea Serpent King's seven-inch spot.

"Huh, it doesn't smell fishy at all, and it even has a faint fragrance." When Xu Qing dug up the Sea Serpent King's corpse, he didn't smell any blood at all.

"As expected of King Level monster, even its body smells sweet. I wonder if I'll be like this after I break through to the War God Level?" Xu Qing wondered.

That would be interesting if his body also smelled sweet after he broke through to the War God Level.

In no time, a space two or three meters long and four or five meters wide was dug out.

Xu Qing went inside, looked around, and thought it was alright; it was acceptable as a room.

He made up his mind to stay inside the corpse of the Sea Serpent King and wait for the East Sea Azure Dragon to come to him.

There's no need to worry about him being discovered, because the East Sea Azure Dragon would never expect him to be inside the Sea Serpent King's body, and his aura is completely concealed by the Sea Serpent King's presence.

Xu Qing himself would also conceal his aura, so there was no need to worry about being detected by the other party.

"Next, we just have to wait," Xu Qing glanced at the bright red seawater in the blood cave, then used the piece of Sea Serpent King's flesh to block the exit, leaving a small opening for people to enter and exit.

Day 1... Day 2... Day 3...

For the first three days, there was no movement in the sea. On the fourth day, a winding shadow appeared on the seabed, swimming around this area.

However, the shadow only lingered for a short while before disappearing.

On the fifth day, the shadow reappeared, but it only lingered in the sea for a short while before disappearing again.

The same thing happened on the sixth, seventh, and eighth days.

Xu Qing had been secretly observing, "This East Sea Azure Dragon is indeed much more cunning. It only comes out to wander around every day, testing whether there are any enemies lying in ambush."

"However, although it is cunning, it certainly doesn't expect that I would be hiding inside the Sea Serpent King's body. It must have already begun to lower its guard. When the time is right, it will definitely devour the Sea Serpent King's corpse."

Sure enough, on the ninth day, the shadow arrived at the area beneath the Sea Serpent King's corpse.

Through the seawater, one could see a colossal creature similar in size to the Sea Serpent King. It had a similar body shape, but with four claws and a dragon's head. Its body was covered with dense blue scales; it was none other than the Azure East Sea Azure Dragon.

The pair of blue dragon eyes glowed, cold and icy, revealing a hint of longing. To it, the corpse of the Sea Serpent King was a great tonic.

If it can devour it all, it might very well make a breakthrough.

Although they were allies who jointly ruled the East Sea, the Sea Serpent King was dead, leaving only his corpse.

Although it didn't know who killed the Sea Serpent King, it was certain that it was done by humans.

It's possible that the Sea Serpent King encountered a powerful human while operating in its territory and unfortunately perished.

As an ally, the East Sea Azure Dragon felt he should accept everything his ally left behind, become stronger, and continue to rule this sea area, carrying on his ally's legacy.

To achieve this goal, its first step is to devour its allies.

In the past few days, the East Sea Azure Dragon has been probing whether the powerful enemy who killed the Sea Serpent King is still around. The results of the probing have proven that the powerful enemy has already left.

There was nothing unfamiliar about this sea area, and nothing unusual about the air either.

Therefore, it can then collect the Sea Serpent King's corpse.

Thinking of this, the East Sea Azure Dragon began to rise, approaching the corpse of the Sea Serpent King.

Splash!

A huge, blue dragon head emerged from the water, its blue eyes darting around as it looked at the Sea Serpent King's long body, wondering where it should begin to bite.

After a moment's thought, the East Sea Azure Dragon decided to start by attacking the Sea Serpent King's vital spot.

Then, its head moved closer to the corpse of the Sea Serpent King.

"Huh? It spotted me? No, it didn't spot me," Xu Qing said in surprise as he saw the East Sea Azure Dragon swimming towards his location through the hole he had made.

Xu Qing quickly figured it out. "This guy actually wanted to attack from the seventh inch. Did the Sea Serpent King have a grudge against it in its previous life? Otherwise, why would it want to attack the Sea Serpent King's seventh inch? This is not a normal thing."

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anymore. It's actually to my liking that it's biting me from here. I'm really curious to see what its expression will be when it sees me," Xu Qing said with a wicked smile.

At this moment, the East Sea Azure Dragon had arrived beside the corpse of the Sea Serpent King, its head aimed at the seven-inch mark, and slowly bit down.

Sizzle!

A large chunk of flesh was torn off, and the East Sea Azure Dragon felt as if it had eaten the most delicious food of its life.

Normally, even King Level monsters rarely have the opportunity to devour other King Level monsters, since each King Level monster is quite powerful and not easy to kill.

This time, the East Sea Azure Dragon was able to taste the flavor of an ally thanks to that unknown human powerhouse.

"Suddenly, I don't hate that human powerhouse as much anymore," even the East Sea Azure Dragon thought to himself.

It ate slowly and elegantly, tearing at the food in small bites. Although it seemed to be enjoying it, it remained vigilant and dared not eat large mouthfuls for fear of being ambushed.
