The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

The leader amongst the krakens had an intimidating set of dark blue scales. All five of its claws were extended. With a crescent horn on its head, its resembled an ice dragon. Above the kraken’s head stood a man clad in dark blue, holding a trident in his hand. Besides him, there were at least 10 other krakens floating above the island.

The Deep Sea Giant Whales concealed themselves by the shore. One of them was the leader who had been defeated by Ye Mo.

The voice traveled straight into Ye Mo’s ears, only for Ye Mo to frown and maintain his cross-legged position. Yet, he was brought back to his senses.

“Guard Zhu Qiang, with Master Ye Xiao yet to wake up from his meditation and Elder Tong Shan still healing his injuries, stay here as protection. I will go out and take a look.” After speaking, Tong Lan jumped out from the palace and rushed out along the kraken’s body. As Tong Lan reached the cave opening, she saw at least 10 dark blue krakens floating in the air, with an energy deity standing on top of each of them. This could only be achieved when a beast reached the strength levels of the Energy Shaping Eighth Realm.

The leader among the giant whales stood between the water pillars. He had his sight locked onto Tong Lan as he said, “Hai Long, that woman is the human who came here to find the Kraken House. It was her accomplice who killed our comrades.”

“Hmph. These mere humans dare to pollute the Kraken House?”

Hai Long rested his trident against his body as he said coldly, “There are still other humans? Didn’t you tell me all of them died in the Kraken King’s residence? It is not that easy to acquire the Kraken King’s essence.”

“The Kraken King essence that you are talking about has already been taken by others, but it was not me.” Tong Lan’s Qingfeng sword was already in her hands.

“What? Taken by others?” Hai Long’s face changed slightly as his gigantic sea dragon body shifted in the air. “Regardless of who took the Kraken King’s essence, all the fighters who came to steal the treasure shall die. I can still detect the auras of a few fighters in the Kraken King Cave. Are they devouring the essence of Master Kraken King?”

“Hai Long, don’t waste time talking to her. Just kill her immediately. We will engage in a complete lockdown of the island—air, land, and sea—and let this be where all the humans die,” the Giant Whale leader said aggressively.

“Kill!” Hai Long waved his trident, and in an instant, a dark blue energy beam shot out from the kraken’s mouth, becoming a sharp, dark blue sword in mid-air. Piercing through the air, it stabbed towards Tong Lan.

Tong Lan’s expression changed slightly, the Qingfeng sword in her hands slightly trembling as she detected the imminent danger. The Qingfeng sword spiraled continuously in the air, forming a green tornado made up of howling wild winds. Breaking all the rocks and boulders from the surrounding mountain range and picking them up in its spiral as well, the tornado struck towards the dark blue sword.

Boom!

The dark blue sword instantly destroyed the tornado upon contact, creating rays of sword auras that darted about wildly. Intersecting with each other in the air, the seemingly endless rays of sword aura struck towards Tong Lan.

“Oh no!” Tong Lan’s face changed dramatically as she immediately opened her green wings and flew into the air in an attempt to dodge the sword aura attack. However, these sword auras almost covered the whole sky. Rays of sword aura slashed Tong Lan’s wings, arms, body, and face. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. Like a fallen angel with her wings clipped, Tong Lan fell from the sky, landing heavily on a giant mountain.

“Feeble human.” Hai Long looked at Tong Lan with an unimpressed expression. He flew towards the Kraken King Cave’s entrance. “The rest of you, stay outside and guard the area. I shall go in and wipe out the humans who are after Master Kraken King’s essence one by one.”

“Yes!”

The Kraken who was circling in the air let out a huge roar, its voice filled with authority, causing the whole island to start rumbling.

Just as Hai Long was ready to rush into the Kraken House, he was sent flying back out.

“Who are you? To think that you’re just a clone and was still able to harm me?!” Hai Long steadied his body in mid-air, as his pained shadow could be seen.

The black energy clone before his eyes was completely unlike anything he had seen before. The clone had a pair of giant dragon wings, a set of energy armor on its body, and dragon-like arms. The clone must have had frightening strength to be able to send him flying backwards with a single hit. The clone before his eyes was truly a dragon clone.

Ye Mo’s actual form had already jumped to the top of the giant mountain. Looking at Tong Lan, who was covered with wounds, a hint of ruthlessness showed on his face. This aura of ruthlessness was channeled directly to his clone.

“Whoever dares to harm her, I will make sure that it will be a one-way trip for you!” Ye Mo’s clone roared loudly as the giant dragon armor hardened and the giant dragon wings on his back glistened. With a swipe of his fist, a dragon spear was instantly generated in his hand, and he immediately aimed for Hai Long. This long spear strike was seemingly able to pierce through the sky and the heavens. The dragon spear was imbued with purple flame spiritual aura as well. Carrying a destructive force, its power was even more devastating.

This time, Ye Mo had truly awakened all of his 2500 rays of Giant Dragon Powers, a complete demonstration of his power. Stab after stab from the dragon spear completely neglected Hai Long as they were struck directly towards the body of the Kraken. The vitality of beasts was extremely high—there was no point striking its energy deity. Only by stabbing through its body to take out its heart-stone could a beast be truly slain.

Seeing Ye Mo’s devastating attack, and the fact that his body was already on the receiving end of multiple spear strikes, Hai Long immediately let out a pained scream. He dared not reserve his powers anymore. “I shall fight you to the death. Lend me the powers of the Sea Deity, Sea Deity Trident!”

Hai Long, an elite fighter from the Kraken Clan with a foot in the True Energy Realm, unleashed all of his remaining strength, borrowing the powers of the Sea Deity to display the Sea Deity Trident. The trident was the weapon the Kraken Clan had always used! Legend had it that this ruthless weapon was one of the seven ancient deadly weapons, a weapon of frightening authority.

“According to myth, it was the Sea Deity who created the ocean. Using his trident, he brought the Kraken Clan into existence. Today, I shall borrow his strength to take your life.” In an instant, he clenched both his fists as the surrounding seawater from the oceans started to splash out and shoot towards his hands, generating a nine-foot long, dark blue trident. He sent the trident towards Ye Mo’s clone. Soaring in the sky, he let out multiple explosive roars, seemingly capable of destroying everything in his path.

“Sea Deity? So what?” In a split second, Ye Mo’s clone felt a huge force of pressure. Having just advanced to the next tier, every entrance in his body was capable of holding 500 rays of Giant Dragon Powers. He had reached the power level of a half True Energy Realm fighter. Facing the Sea Deity Trident, Ye Mo was completely fearless.

He swung the dragon spear in his hand, displaying the Human-Spear Unity, his aura of slaughter and destruction combining the Will of the Sky Blood. This was almost the strongest attack he could unleash. Before the Sea Deity Trident could even come close to him, it was sent flying away by a wave of wild, violent light blades. Hai Long’s entire body exploded instantly as a shining, dark blue heart-stone flew into the air.
