The Eagle King Breaks Through
After everyone left, Shen Ge followed Han Yu back to Phoenix City, because there was someone waiting for him there.
Back at the restaurant, Shen Ge looked at Li Liu standing by the window and asked, "Fellow Daoist Li, where are you planning to go now?"
"Where else can we go?" Li Liu chuckled. "Let's just wander around Heavenly South."
"I cultivate immortality simply to see the sights of this world. If I lose even this initial aspiration, what use is immortality to me? Is it just to be superior to others?"
"Fellow Daoist Shen, now that you're back, I'll take my leave."
"If I hadn't wanted to let you know, I would have left long ago."
Shen Ge clasped his hands in a fist salute to her and said, "Then I wish Fellow Daoist Li a pleasant trip."
Afterwards, Shen Ge returned to his own courtyard in the Spirit Moon Sect. After chatting with his acquaintances for a while, he began his seclusion.
After this period of seclusion, he may reappear at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Nascent Soul in less than three hundred years is indeed a bit fast, but compared to the hardships Shen Ge has endured along the way, it doesn't seem that fast at all.
On a deserted island Luo Heaven Sea, a strong wind suddenly blew up. In the blink of an eye, the originally normal sea breeze turned into a gale, and then into a strong wind.
The gale blew towards the Inner Sea, churning up the sea for five hundred miles along its path. Large islands were blown into smaller islands, and the smaller islands were shattered into rubble.
Such a scene resembles a natural disaster!
But this is merely the manifestation of an aura!
At the source of the gale, which was now slowly receding, a man slowly stood up in the rubble pit.
The man appeared to be a young man with sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a nose as sharp as a hook.
Although he was extremely handsome, the faint, menacing Sha Qi emanating from him sent chills down one's spine.
The Eagle King opened his arms, closed his eyes, and looked completely absorbed. He slowly clenched his fists, deeply captivated by the indescribable power within him.
"Is this the power of the Spirit Severing Realm? It's truly breathtaking."
Then he raised his hand and swung it sharply, and a pure and refined wind blade tore through space and cleaved a small island three hundred miles away, cutting the entire island in half as easily as cutting tofu, with an extremely smooth cut.
But the wind blade did not dissipate; instead, it continued to fly for over a hundred miles before stopping, destroying countless islands and killing countless lives along the way.
Such a tragedy occurred simply from testing his strength, demonstrating just how tyrannical the Eagle King is.
"Not bad." The Eagle King chuckled lightly, then took a step and vanished, leaving only a faint voice in the air. "Immortality is difficult."
Three hours later, the Eagle King found the hiding Primordial Serpent, which was at a critical stage in its attempt to become Primordial Serpent Fifth-Tier Demon Beast.
Eagle King's face slightly raised a smile, and with a wave of his hand, endless gale-force winds swept towards his opponent. The howling wind was like thunder, displaying rage and destruction. The surrounding seawater was squeezed and spread out by this storm, creating a vacuum area of more than thirty miles.
"There can only be one strongest in this Luo Heaven Sea. Little snake, become the nourishment for my advancement."
"Asshole!"
The Primordial Serpent sensed the danger from the outside world. Although it was anxious, it was unable to resist because it was at a critical stage of its breakthrough.
He never imagined that he would be found even though he had hidden himself tens of thousands of miles below the surface of the ocean.
His original plan was for him to break through to the Fifth-Tier Demon Beast first, and then devour the Eagle King and the Blood Shark King.
Unexpectedly, it was the Eagle King who succeeded first. This shouldn't be the case. Logically speaking, that old bastard's bloodline is not as good as his, and his cultivation level is not as high as his either. Why should he be able to break through first?
But at this point, dwelling on these things was pointless; reality was already before him, and he was about to face the biggest crisis of his life.
"Break it!"
The Primordial Serpent roared angrily in its heart, but how could it possibly achieve a breakthrough so easily by simply roaring a few times? If it were that easy, wouldn't everyone be able to overcome their bottlenecks by simply roaring a few times?
"Whoosh~ whoosh~ whoosh..."
One after another, gusts of wind lashed against the Primordial Serpent's body. Even though its scales were exceptionally tough, they were of no use in this storm.
One snake scale after another was scraped off and reduced to dust, but although he was covered in blood, his flesh was not damaged much.
At this moment, the Eagle King in the storm gently raised his hand and pointed a finger. A huge claw directly grabbed the head of the Primordial Serpent and pressed it into the mud at the bottom.
The Primordial Serpent, which had already exited its breakthrough state, writhed and struggled incessantly, but to no avail. Even when it used its innate divine Divine Ability, it was useless. The Yin-Yang Diagram was shattered by the Eagle King's finger as soon as it took shape.
Although he is currently severely injured, he is still a half- Half-Step Spirit Severing Half-Step Spirit Severing. However, in front of the true Spirit Severing Realm Eagle King, he is like a child, completely powerless to resist. Even his powerful bloodline cannot make up for this gap.
Seeing the still struggling Primordial Serpent, the Eagle King played with it for a while before crushing its head with a single claw. At the same time, a violent gust of wind destroyed all the divine souls within its body, leaving only a relatively intact corpse.
The Eagle King chuckled, his face filled with disdain, and sneered, "Little thing, you really think you could have escaped on your own back then? Your appearance was nothing more than food I deliberately released."
"Hmph, Primordial Serpent, do you really think you're that strong?"
After leaving with the corpse, the Eagle King transformed back into its beast form, its enormous body, hundreds of feet in size, seemed to blot out the sky, exuding an oppressive aura.
The body of the Primordial Serpent was swallowed whole by the Eagle King, just like an earthworm.
After transforming back into human form, the Eagle King elegantly wiped the faint bloodstains from the corner of his mouth with a white cloth, then looked up at the Seven Islands and smiled faintly.
Judging by appearance alone, the Eagle King could indeed be described as a handsome young man at this time.
"Old friends, are you ready to welcome me?"
With a loud laugh, the Eagle King took a step and vanished without a trace.
The world in the Luo Heaven Sea has changed. The thing that Venerable Yaoguang and the others feared most has finally happened. The future direction of the human race in the Luo Heaven Sea is now unknown.
Perhaps they will be slaughtered as food, with no future; or perhaps they will become domesticated pigs, slaughtered round after round by Demon Beast.
But regardless of the possibility, the future is bleak and hopeless. A deathly despair has somehow enveloped the entire human race of the Luo Heaven Sea, and the dark world has made it impossible for them to see a ray of sunlight.
