…

In the deep sea, Ye Xiao continued to absorb the energy and martial art comprehension left behind by the Ancestral Dragon, and his own body was also continuously strengthening.

His cultivation started to increase rapidly.

Originally, he only had one aperture opened in his body, but in the blink of an eye, he easily progressed to two apertures. Moreover, he was still rapidly advancing to three apertures.

Although the weakening of the energy and the increase in Ye Xiao’s cultivation caused Ye Xiao’s improvement speed to not be as fast as it was at the beginning, it was still very fast.

Ancestral Dragon’s clone body gradually began to turn illusory, including the gratified expression on his face.

‘This brat is amazing! Although the energy that I left here is enough for a person to easily advance, it is absolutely impossible for me to reach such a fast speed.

‘His talent is simply monstrous to the extreme. He can be said to be the fastest man since the immemorial era!

‘Kid, I’ll wait to see your performance.’

Ye Xiao, who was cultivating, suddenly felt the aura in his body fluctuate, but the Ancestral Dragon had already completely disappeared.

…

At the same time, on the surface of the sea, the battle was about to start. Countless high-level cultivators took action one after another. The terrifying scene caused the sky to change color, and even the space faintly trembled.

The energy in the air had already reached its limit, the spatial barrier could not hold on much longer.

Luo Feng and the others were below, their expressions serious to the extreme, they went all out to prepare.

“They’ve started. Everyone prepare to attack. First, coordinate with the array to defend. Don’t face the attack directly otherwise, we might not even last a round.”

The moment they finished speaking, the Imperial Immortals rushed over and pounced.

Their numbers were simply too many, they looked like rushing raindrops, or using a meteor filled with destruction to describe them was more appropriate.

Rumble, Rumble, Rumble…

Along with those powerful Imperial Immortals landing, there were their attacks that were enough to destroy the world.

All the attacks landed on the array, immediately causing it to emit a crackling sound, that was the array cracking.

Luo Feng and the others swallowed, their heads could not help but break out in cold sweat.

Luckily, that array was created by Zhang San, if it was not for him, those attacks would have taken away most of them in a single round, even if there were some left, they would not be able to withstand the next wave of attacks.

Even so, after enduring two waves of attacks, the array still could not withstand it.

Crack!

Following a shocking explosion, it finally broke completely.

“Go!”

The moment the defense array broke, Luo Feng led his men and rushed forward, using his fastest speed to meet the Imperial Immortal closest to him.

Rumble!

His powerful attacks instantly forced his opponent back, forcing him to retreat.

His opponent’s previous momentum had already been blocked by two waves of the array. At that moment, the advantage of the attack was gone.

The other Imperial Immortal pirates also met him at the same time.

At that moment, the pirates actually faintly gained an advantage.

However, it was only an instant of brilliance. It was impossible to maintain it for long.

After all, the opponent had too many people.

Under the situation where everyone’s strength was about the same, the other party’s numbers had already caused an effect that was close to crushing.

The pirates were quickly suppressed.

Upon seeing that scene, Sacred Sovereign Kong, who was above the clouds, nodded his head in satisfaction.

That was right, it was more or less what he had expected. That day, not a single pirate could escape.

Although he did not have the chance to kill Ye Xiao, being able to kill those people could be considered a form of consolation to him.

However, just as he was about to start feeling pleased with himself, an incident suddenly happened.

His heart suddenly jumped violently.

A sense of unease quickly surged into his heart.

“Not good!”

He had already thought of the reason.

In the entire Undesirable Sea, there were not many people who could make him feel that way. Even if their cultivation was also at the Sacred Sovereign realm, it was impossible for the other party to make him feel intimidated.

Moreover, there was only one person who could make him feel intimidated.

Which was Ye Xiao!

At that moment, on the surface of the sea, the Imperial Immortals who were excitedly crushing the Imperial Immortal pirates had not noticed the situation and were still fighting excitedly.

Their strength was not enough to sense Ye Xiao in advance.

Sacred Sovereign Kong was so angry that his eyes widened.

That d*mn b*stard, he was actually still there. Yet he clearly did not sense his aura earlier.

However, he did not have the time to think too much right then. The 36 strategies were to escape first.

However, just as he was about to escape, a bolt of lightning that was 10,000 feet thick suddenly descended from the sky.

Rumble!

That bolt of lightning tore through the sky and mercilessly struck his body. It actually forced him, who was a dignified supreme cultivator, to retreat.

He suddenly widened his eyes and looked at all of that with a face full of disbelief.

He could clearly sense that the bolt of lightning was not released by Ye Xiao on his own initiative.

Instead, it was a bolt of lightning that was affected by his mood and caused the heaven and earth phenomenon with his thoughts.

Even so, that bolt of lightning was actually able to force him back?

Was there a mistake?

Was that a joke?

Although that fellow was able to suppress him previously, he should at least act personally, right?

In the end, he did not even need to act personally. That actually caused him to feel a fatal sense of threat.

That fellow’s strength had increased?

At that moment, the Imperial Immortals on the surface of the sea finally began to notice that something was not right.

“What’s going on?”

“That Sacred Sovereign, who is he fighting with above the clouds?”

Just as they were talking, an incident happened.

Bang!

An Imperial Immortal exploded into a bloody mist.

Then, the second, third, fourth, fifth…

One Imperial Immortal after another exploded into a bloody mist. They did not even have the chance to react.

The remaining Imperial Immortals broke out in cold sweat from shock. All the hair on their bodies stood on end as they turned around and ran.

They finally understood what had happened.

It was Ye Xiao!

It was that demon that they would never forget for the rest of their lives!

He was still there.

Unfortunately, even if they wanted to run, Ye Xiao would not let them off so easily.

The Imperial Immortals exploded one after another. Even if they were to fly tens of thousands of miles away in an instant, they would be blasted into a bloody mist by an unknown method before being absorbed into the seawater.

That was Ye Xiao devouring their immortal blood.

Although he was already a Sacred Sovereign and the immortal blood’s replenishment to him was already negligible, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still a piece of meat. Moreover, it was after all the fresh blood of an Imperial Immortal. It could at least give him some improvements. It was better not to waste it.

In the blink of an eye, all the Imperial Immortals who came to invade were destroyed. Their energy was all devoured and absorbed by Ye Xiao, transforming into his own energy.

Before long, a bright light rose from the surface of the sea, piercing through the clouds. It looked like a pillar of heaven, lifting up the sky.

Ye Xiao’s figure, within that light, slowly rose. The pressure was terrifying, it was so oppressive that even breathing was difficult.

Luo Feng and the others let out a sigh of relief.

Even though the battle had only lasted for a short period of time, because of the huge difference in strength between the two sides, many of them still died in the end.

Fortunately, Ye Xiao appeared in time. Otherwise, all of them would have been killed there.

Even so, those who survived were also heavily injured. Many of their bodies were already crippled, and their auras were dispirited and disfigured.

“Thank you, Sacred Lord, for saving us.”

They all knelt down and expressed their gratitude. Ye Xiao swept a glance at them and then used the Primordial Chaos sacred art to instantly heal everyone’s injuries.

Due to his current cultivation far surpassing those people, coupled with the power of the Primordial Chaos sacred art, he could naturally save them with ease.

Everyone expressed their gratitude once again, but Ye Xiao had already arrived in the sky in the blink of an eye and was walking toward Sacred Sovereign Kong.

“You shouldn’t have come.”

A simple sentence coupled with Ye Xiao’s gradually approaching figure actually caused Sacred Sovereign Kong to be suppressed to the point that it seemed very difficult for him to even move.

Sacred Sovereign Kong broke out in cold sweat as his pupils constricted. He was extremely shocked.

That feeling was not right. It was too wrong.

How could it be?

Although Ye Xiao could suppress him, he was still far from reaching that level previously.

Just like the celestial phenomenon of divine lightning that he summoned with his mind earlier, its power was also extraordinary.

“You… You’ve awakened? You’ve awakened two apertures? That’s not right. If it’s only two apertures, I wouldn’t be unable to even move in front of you. You’ve awakened three apertures!”

Ye Xiao did not reply.

At that moment, Sacred Sovereign Kong felt that his martial conviction was about to collapse.

How was that possible?

How long had it been since Ye Xiao advanced to the Sacred Sovereign realm?

In such a short period of time, he had already opened three apertures?

Was there a mistake?

That speed was so fast that it made one’s hair stand on end.

One had to know that although it was slightly easier to open an aperture than to advance to the Sacred Sovereign realm, it was still very difficult to open an aperture. It was only slightly easier compared to the Imperial Immortal advancing to the Sacred Sovereign realm.

Otherwise, he would have long since advanced to God knows how many apertures!

It would not be to the extent of advancing to the Sacred Sovereign realm for so many years and still having one aperture up till then.

Ye Xiao’s performance had already completely subverted his understanding.

He really could not understand why Ye Xiao was so powerful.

“How is this possible? I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!”

He let out a furious roar like an exasperated child, and Ye Xiao’s pressure had already begun to descend and suppress his body.

Ye Xiao could not be bothered with him. Whether he believed it or not, Ye Xiao did not care at all.

That was because he was going to be a dead person!

Seeing Ye Xiao approaching, Sacred Sovereign Kong was completely afraid. He forcefully suppressed the unwillingness and impulse in his heart and immediately opened his mouth to speak,

“Don’t kill me. We have something to discuss properly. If you’re willing, the two of us can turn our hostility into amity, stop the war, and form an alliance from now on.

“In the future, if you encounter any trouble, you can tell me. I’ll definitely do my part.”

He once again gave up his dignity and chose to lower himself, even if it was to cooperate with Ye Xiao or even become his subordinate.

Bang!

Just as he finished speaking, Ye Xiao directly launched an attack. The powerful attack instantly caused Sacred Sovereign Kong’s body to suffer heavy injuries and burst into a cloud of blood mist with a single strike.

It was an instant kill!

Ye Xiao’s eyes did not have any fluctuations at all.

Even if he killed the other party, as long as he retained his primordial soul, Ye Xiao could use the materials to create a brand new sacred body and then use it to control him.

That way, he would truly be at ease!

Compared to if he were to ally with him, or even take him in as his underling, he might rebel in the future.

Even if he did not rebel, Ye Xiao still wanted to kill him to establish his authority. Otherwise, how could he truly take him in as his lackey in the future?

However, what Ye Xiao did not expect was that the bloody mist that Sacred Sovereign Kong exploded into actually quickly closed up in the blink of an eye and was resurrected again.

That should be a secret technique that Ye Xiao did not know that he cultivated!

Perhaps because he had been killed by Ye Xiao before, Sacred Sovereign Kong had completely lost hope in Ye Xiao. Sacred Sovereign Kong’s expression was extremely ferocious as he said viciously,

“Ye Xiao, you have guts! But let me tell you, don’t think that just because you’ve opened three apertures, I’m afraid of you!

“You’re not the only one who has opened three apertures. There are people behind me as well.

“If you dare to make a move against me, you’ll die in the end!

“You have no idea what kind of existence you’re facing!”

“In the name of Ye Xiao, completely destroy Sacred Sovereign Kong!”

Bang!

Just as his voice fell, Sacred Sovereign Kong exploded once again, exploding into a cloud of blood mist,

Ye Xiao mercilessly displayed his strength once again. Moreover, it was the strongest his Destiny sacred art had ever been. It completely destroyed him and crushed him into dust, not giving him the chance to say another word.

Of course, he did not care about the threat he made earlier!

If Ye Xiao cowered because of the other party’s threat, then his martial path would be completely finished.

Advancing to the Imperial Immortal realm was already the greatest limit many people could reach in their entire lives.

Furthermore, advancing to the Sacred Sovereign realm required an extremely great amount of luck.

Yet many people would find it very difficult to advance even further after advancing to the Sacred Sovereign realm. The most important point was that many people’s martial hearts were not pure enough.

If the Sacred Sovereign wanted to take a step forward, he needed to have a true heart of a powerhouse.

A heart of a powerhouse that would forever seek to become stronger would be fearless of life and death!

Those were all things that Ye Xiao had learned from the martial arts insights left behind by the Ancestral Dragon.

Therefore, no matter how powerful the faction behind Sacred Sovereign Kong was or how terrifying they were, ye Xiao could not back down even if they dared to attack him.

One step back, one step back. In the end, the limit of his life would come to a standstill.

Ye Xiao did not know whether what Sacred Sovereign Kong said was true or false, but as long as he was fearless, it was enough.

However, at that moment, an extremely terrifying pressure suddenly erupted in the sky.

No, it was not just one, but several extremely terrifying pressure came from all directions.

They did not come in the true sense. They only wanted their own pressure to come over and intimidate Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao was stunned. He did not expect that Sacred Sovereign Kong did not lie. There were really some special forces behind him.

Moreover, those forces did not look simple.

Some of them were already not weaker than him. They were probably existences that had achieved the Sacred Sovereign’s three apertures.
