Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 524: Chapter 341: Invincible Below the Golden Core_2

Therefore, although it was ordained by the Sealing God Book, it could not exert any power, driven by many over the years, and had also suffered too much oppression and humiliation.

Thus, when the Ghost God Association’s Dragon Serpent Lake Deity and Water Tiger God came to it, after just a few manipulative words, the simple-minded Black Fish God willingly joined the Ghost God Association and provided shelter and cover for them.

In any case… its death was not unjust!

This fool, even if he had not died at the hands of Zhao Sheng, would have sooner or later been tricked to death by the Ghost God Association.

“Damn, Third, you died at the worst possible time! Wait till I avenge you, roar!”

In his rage, the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity’s serpentine body forcefully swung, and its tail struck out a huge wave.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The dense fog filled the sky, and with successive dragon roars, it instantly transformed into streaks of transparent water waves, lifting the colossal body of the dragon demon and rushing towards Zhao Sheng.

Around the dragon serpent, countless three-foot Water Arrows emerged out of thin air while amidst the rain of arrows, several four to five zhang long, bucket-thick, uni-horned Water Pythons intermixed.

There was an invisible divine force surging continuously in the dense fog, making Zhao Sheng feel that his Spiritual Power was not running smoothly within him, as if it was suddenly being interfered with by some external force, far from its usual fluid motion.

Roar!

The Water Tiger God climbed to the airspace above Zhao Sheng’s head, its enormous demon body bringing an endless storm of bloody rain, and it fiercely pounced down with unmatched ferocity.

The two deities, one above and one below, coordinated flawlessly, instantaneously putting Zhao Sheng in a dire situation.

However, Zhao Sheng’s face showed no sign of fear; his body suddenly erupted in a mass of raging flames, concealing his form.

The sword rainbow swiftly approached, cutting across the Water Tiger God at the waist, brilliance flaring up, and nearly a hundred streams of Sword Light divided out, like “fish” made of dazzling golden light, twisting and turning with incredible agility, tightly binding the Water Tiger God.

Meanwhile, Zhao Sheng dashed out dozens of zhang away in a flash.

But for some reason, his dodging movement seemed a tad slow and was nearly caught up by the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity; one arm was barely grazed by a dragon tooth.

Splat!

The blood flew across, and Zhao Sheng was flung far away, gazing darkly at the smug-looking Dragon Serpent Lake Deity.

At this moment, a dragon tooth of the dragon had blood on it, and there were specks of blood around the corners of its mouth.

“Hehe! Boy, if you don’t want to end up in a fish’s belly, just surrender quietly. Otherwise, don’t blame this deity for ruthlessly crushing you!” the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity said with a sinister smile.

With the laws of the Divine Domain enhancing its power, its strength had greatly increased, nearly reaching that of a Golden Core Master.

In the time it took to speak those words, the surrounding fog quickly thickened, obscuring any figures more than a zhang away.

At this moment, the divine power surging in the air became more apparent, impeded by the Divine Domain laws, causing Zhao Sheng’s range of Divine Sense to rapidly shrink, making investigation increasingly difficult.

Although he had Nascent Soul level combat experience, sadly his actual strength was far inferior to his opponent’s.

If it truly came down to life and death, Zhao Sheng could not be certain that he would emerge as the victor, assuming the other party wasn’t concealing any trump cards of course.

Zhao Sheng looked guarded, expanding his Divine Sense out over twenty zhang, keeping a close watch on the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity, and asked, “I have no grudges or grievances with your divinity, why do you meticulously plot to put me in a deadly situation?”

While he used the opportunity of talking to buy time, he flipped over one hand, and in his hand was a cinnabar red, dazzlingly bright three-foot long sword.

This sword, called Red Dragon Son, was personally refined by Zhao Sheng. Crafted from millennial Fire Copper, measuring three feet and three inches long and containing thirty-six Earth Evil Restriction spells, it was not only unmatched in sharpness but also indestructible, truly a superior Spirit Sword.

“Hmph, well asked! I ask you, was the Snake God killed by you? Is its divine authority on you?” the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity questioned sharply, its massive serpentine body slowly pressing closer to Zhao Sheng.

Perhaps it was the demon beast’s instinct, but it vaguely felt a tremendous and deadly threat emanating from the opponent.

This made it dare not relax at all, exerting full power to maintain the Divine Domain.

Although constantly maintaining the Divine Domain was an exceptionally heavy burden for a Demon God who had just touched the threshold of the Ghost God Realm,

It has only one life, and caution is paramount.

Hearing the continuous questioning of the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity, Zhao Sheng’s heart chilled, and he realized that he had long been targeted.

“The deity jokes. Being just a mere prison guard, how would I know anything about a Snake God?” Zhao Sheng’s pupils contracted, yet his face was full of innocence.

“Roar, big brother, stop wasting words with him! Act quickly and swallow this damned mortal. Roar, it hurts!”

As he spoke, the Water Tiger yelped repeatedly; by accident, two streaks of Sword Light had slashed across its transparent demon body, causing two wounds from which flames ascended.

Karmic Fire, the bane of all ghosts, demons, and Yin Souls, primarily harms the Divine Soul!

Although the Water Tiger God’s demon body had become a spiritual water body, impervious to ordinary physical damage, it could not avoid the agonizing burn inflicted by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire on its Divine Soul.

In this delay, brilliant white fireballs had quietly condensed around Zhao Sheng’s body, encircling him in a sky of fireballs that released circles of scorching heat.

“Humph, if you don’t drink the offered wine, you must drink the penalty wine! I am ready to sacrifice thirty years—ah!”

The Dragon Serpent Lake Deity hadn’t finished speaking when it suddenly let out a piercing scream!

Bang!

A huge blast of Dragon Serpent blood spurted out like a fountain, and a deep blue ripple of lightning struck across the Dragon Serpent’s skull, furiously impacting the Daoist figure.

However, no matter how fiercely the Dragon Serpent’s skull struggled and shook, Zhao Sheng, standing on its forehead, stood unmoved as if rooted to the spot.

Once,

Twice,

Three times!

The thick condensed light of Spiritual Power shielded against layers of Divine Power washing over it, as Zhao Sheng repeatedly drove the Red Dragon Sword into the Dragon Serpent’s head.

The Dragon Serpent Scale Armor, sturdy like fine steel, was as fragile as paper mache under the sword’s blade, easily punctured.

In just an instant, the sword light emitted from the Red Dragon Sword had churned the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity’s brain into a mess, and the Demon Soul was instantly shattered by the sword light.

The next second, the shrieks ceased abruptly—a massive demon body of the Dragon Serpent stiffened suddenly, its Divine Light dissipating, then crashed straight down from the sky, falling into the lake and creating a massive wave.

“Aow… no good, escape aow!”

Upon witnessing this shocking turn of events, the Water Tiger God was so frightened that it screamed, ignoring the burning pain from the karma fire and the deep sword marks left by the sword light on its body. In an instant, its huge tiger body transformed into a water wave, fleeing swiftly towards the distance.

It hoped to use the fog to conceal its form and escape to safety.

Unfortunately, someone had already laid a trap on it.

Zhao Sheng looked in the direction the Water Tiger God was fleeing, smiled slightly, and his form instantly turned into nothingness.

The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already standing on the water wave.

Before the Water Tiger God could react, in an instant, a streak of Red Fire Lotus shot like lightning into the depths of the water wave, striking the deeply hidden Demon Soul squarely, instantly annihilating it with just one hit.

“Within twenty miles, there is no rival under the Golden Core!” Zhao Sheng chanted softly, stretching out his hand, and a misty, apple-sized “Bright Pearl” separated from the body of the Water Tiger demon and obediently flew into his palm.

Immediately following, with a flick of his hand, his palm was empty; the fragment of the Heavenly Dao Laws had already been hidden away by him.

Then, he took out a slender-necked glass bottle, aimed the mouth of the bottle at a large clump of spiritual water suspended in the air.

A suction force appeared out of nowhere, quickly drawing the spiritual water into the bottle, which he then stored in the Space Storage Seal.

This clump of spiritual water was originally a type of Heaven and Earth Spirit Water, which was later picked by the Water Tiger God and refined into a spiritual body.

The Water Tiger God, unlike the Dragon Serpent Lake God and the Black Fish God, had transformed into a “Wandering God” after death and thus did not possess a flesh body like the other two gods.

After securing the spiritual water, Zhao Sheng took out two vials of Spirit Pills from the Space Storage Seal to heal his injuries and then released several restitution True Talismans to speed up the healing process of his body.

In just a short while, the large gaping wound on his waist and abdomen had mostly healed, and the injuries on his arms had already fully recovered.

As the dense fog on the lake gradually dispersed, Zhao Sheng descended from the sky, scanning with his eyes and immediately focusing on a spot where blood was slowly diffusing across the lake surface.

His hands quickly forming spells, streaks of spirit light entered the lake water, and in a moment, the lake water churned violently, boiling like hot water.

Suddenly,

a gigantic Dragon Serpent carcass was lifted by the lake water, quietly suspended above the lake surface.

Zhao Sheng descended, holding the Red Dragon Sword, and began to dissect the Dragon Serpent’s body.

Moments later, the Dragon Serpent carcass was completely dismembered, each part stored into two Space Storage Seals.

As for its divinity, it naturally fell into Zhao Sheng’s hands too.

After dealing with the Dragon Serpent Lake Deity, Zhao Sheng had no intention of handling the Black Fish God.

The Black Fish God was listed in the Sealing God Book; taking its divinity would only invite trouble.

He was well-settled in the Divine Prison and didn’t want the Divine Guardian Group of the Heavenly Dao Sect knocking at his door.

After carefully dealing with the lake surface and removing all traces of battle, Zhao Sheng casually threw a golden small sword, his body enveloped by the sword light, transformed into a sword rainbow, and dashed lightning-fast towards the lakeshore.
