Infinite Bloodcore

Chapter 312: Section 100: Breaking into the Half-plane

“Unfaithful man, I’m coming for you!” Hua Ya yelled as the tree ship beneath her feet slowly moved into action and charged toward the side of the Justice Pirate Group.

The members of the Justice Pirate Group became visibly restless.

The Mother Tree Pirate Group was renowned, boasting Holy Domain Level combat power, which made the Justice Pirate Group seem like a little brother in comparison.

“Firebeard’s third-in-command, this is the romantic debt you owe,” Zong Ge said to Feng Yao without any politeness.

Feng Yao’s face twisted with embarrassment as he was about to speak.

At that moment, the Dragon-man youth placed his hand on Feng Yao’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, you are now an ally of my Justice Pirate Group, and we won’t just stand by and watch.”

Feng Yao spoke with a heavy tone and shook his head, “If my strength were still intact, I wouldn’t be afraid of them. But now I’m only at Golden Level, I will go find Hua Ya and explain everything clearly. I believe she won’t kill me, and you all can go.”

“Third-in-command!” someone clad in grey cried out.

Feng Yao smiled, “This is my own choice, it doesn’t count as you breaking the alliance.”

At the critical moment, he showed his sense of responsibility.

“We haven’t reached that point yet,” the Dragon-man youth said with a smile.

Feng Yao was currently the only Golden Level powerhouse he could rely on, and furthermore, he was part of the Magic System.

He wasn’t quite willing to give up on him.

Besides, if they couldn’t win, they could always retreat.

Immediately, the Dragon-man youth ordered a full-speed retreat for everyone.

The Tree Men on the tree ship glared, and Hua Ya’s shouts continued, “Don’t run!”

“Are you going to run again? Other than running, what else can you do?”

“Unfaithful man, stand right there!”

“Get back here!”

The other Tree Men on the tree ship were also furious and wanted to avenge Hua Ya and give Feng Yao a lesson he would never forget.

But the tree ship was very slow.

The distance between the Justice Pirate Group and them grew more considerable by the moment.

Unless the Mother Tree Pirate Group’s squad leader, Auntie Menstruation, awakened—since the tree ship was her body—they would be able to burst with incredible speed and quickly catch up to the Justice Pirate Group.

But Auntie Menstruation was in a deep sleep most of the time, only waking when faced with tremendous danger.

So the tree ship could only watch helplessly as the Justice Pirate Group sailed further away.

“I refuse to believe that I can’t catch you even if it takes my whole life!” Hua Ya waved her branch-like arms, cursing vehemently.

Days passed, and the Sky Pillar continued to rise, approaching its peak.

The Sky Pillar Sea Eye Fountain stabilized, but the situation in this sea area became increasingly complicated.

After the Sea Giant squad and the Mother Tree Pirate Group, many more powers and gangs arrived.

Under the youth’s command, the Justice Pirate Group temporarily retreated to the edge of the Sea Eye, waiting for an opportunity.

The youth had mixed feelings about this.

He was anxious about the complexity of the situation; Feng Yao was a magnet for enmity, and the Justice Pirate Group was not particularly strong in this mix.

He was pleased because many powers, lured by the treasure, had arrived, each looking to break into the Half-plane. This meant that the Justice Pirate Group didn’t have to face the Holy Beast and the heavily guarded Mei Lan temple alone.

During the wait, Golden Chin and Sea Snake Lady’s fleet successfully rendezvoused with the Dragon-man youth.

Earlier, when the youth had commanded the Justice Pirate Group to act alone, it was meant to keep his secrets hidden as much as possible. But after receiving intelligence and realizing their strength was weak, he called Golden Chin and Sea Snake Lady to join them and make every effort to enhance their collective power.

Their arrival increased the number of Silver Level powerhouses on the side of the Justice Pirate Group to eight, including the Silver Level Magic Beast sea snake.

It’s worth mentioning that the Big guy, practicing the Earth Fighting energy technique, had naturally progressed to Black Iron Level after sufficient accumulation.

Finally, the day the youth had anxiously awaited arrived.

The Sky Pillar towered into the clouds with turbulent, surging tides, and mist filled the high skies, obscuring the sun.

The Sky Pillar’s eruption officially entered the second phase, creating a stable connection between the Half-plane and the outside world, allowing entry and exit.

Standing at the rail, he could vaguely see the silhouette of a temple from the Half-plane through the massive white fountain.

Feng Yao’s eyes shone with anticipation, “My Goddess, I’m coming for you, I’ll see you again!”

He couldn’t wait and said, “If we charge in directly, we can enter the Half-plane.”

But the next moment, a mountainous beast’s shadow blocked the view of the temple. With six snake heads, it issued a serpent’s cry so loud it couldn’t be drowned out by the roaring of the Sky Pillar Sea Eye.

The Six-headed Snake!

Mei Lan Temple’s Holy Beast was blocking the way.

For a moment, the many groups that were restless became subdued, each looking at one another, waiting hopefully for someone else to take the lead.

After a brief wait, one faction made its move.

It was the team of Sea Giants.

The Sea Giants swam toward the Sky Pillar, their leader, Punch Fist, rising out of the ocean surface.

The six-headed sea snake could also see the Sea Giants through the Sky Pillar and immediately its hissing intensified, a clear warning.

Punch Fist bowed slightly to the six-headed sea snake and, after making a polite gesture, he took out a massive conch from his bosom.

“Holy Beast, I come bearing the totem, to worship the great Fish God, seeking aid. Please clear the path and allow me to proceed,” Punch Fist said.

The six heads of the sea snake drew closer, eyeing the Sea Giants through the curtain of water for a while, then raised their necks high, looking down upon the team of Sea Giants, and issued a hissing sound.

On hearing the snake’s hiss, all the Sea Giants’s faces lit up with joy.

The Holy Beast recognized the token and moved slightly to the side, clearing the way.

Under the watchful eyes of many, the Sea Giants passed through the Sky Pillar’s waterfall and entered the Half-plane. They were quickly obscured by the six-headed sea snake.

“These Sea Giants actually have a token?”

“They’ve gone in, let’s set off too!”

“Yes, our Mother Tree Pirate Group has no need to fear a Magic Beast, even if it is of the Holy Domain Level.”

Many Tree Men aboard the tree ship became agitated, wanting to depart immediately.

Hua Ya shook her head, “No, let our squad leader get some more rest. She just fell asleep not long ago and waking her now would make her very irritable. We don’t need to be in such a hurry; those Barbarians won’t be able to hold back. They always lack patience.”

Hua Ya placed her hopes on the Barbarian tribe.

The Barbarians’ ship had appeared after the Mother Tree Pirate Group.

They had but one ship, which was about as wide as the Justice but at least twice as long.

Although the ship had sails, its primary propulsion was not these but oars.

These oars were long, densely packed, and extended from both sides of the ship into the water.

The arrangement of the oars had two levels, indicating that both the Bottom Deck and Mid Deck were filled with rowers.

At both the bow and the stern were Dragon Head statues, a tradition of the Barbarians and a feature of their vessels.

After a brief pause, the Barbarian ship indeed began to move.

Hundreds of oars moved in unison, rowing slowly, and a Barbarian Big Guy, bare-chested and solidly muscled, stood at the bow.

His features were square, his expression resolute, radiating an unmistakably Holy Domain aura!

The Barbarian sea ship gained speed, surging toward the Sky Pillar with a forceful attitude.

The Holy Beast hissed again, issuing a stern warning.

The Barbarian Big Guy snorted, “I carry a divine mission. Let me pass.”

The six-headed sea snake shifted its coils, completely blocking the passage.

The Barbarian Big Guy snorted once more and abruptly sprang from the Dragon Head ship, launching himself into the Half-plane like a Bomb.

Boom, boom, boom!

He and the Holy Beast commenced their clash, unleashing deafening explosions.

Fighting energy burst forth, with thunder and venom scattering everywhere, the terrifying force making the watching crowd involuntarily shiver with cold.

The six-headed sea snake hissed again, but this time it was filled with pain.

Everyone was shocked; the battle had lasted only a few minutes, and yet the six-headed sea snake was already at a disadvantage. The Barbarian Big Guy was incredibly dominant, displaying extraordinary combat prowess.

The six-headed sea snake opened its maws wide, spewing venom, thunder, torrents, flames, and more from its six heads, fighting with all its might.

The Barbarian Big Guy roared, activating his Holy Domain; instantly, snow and ice whirled, Hail the size of fists, and thousands upon thousands of them enveloped the six-headed sea snake.

The six-headed sea snake, covered in wounds, turned tail and fled!

The Barbarian Big Guy pursued the victory, his killing intent chilling. Under the wide-eyed gaze of the onlookers, both the Barbarian Big Guy and the six-headed sea snake disappeared into the temple.

“What kind of people are these Barbarians?”

“That Holy Domain warrior is impressive, his identity must be no simple matter.”

“Hurry, go in! The Holy Beast has been driven away, the way forward is now unobstructed!”

The crowd was greatly excited, moving out one after another.

Wary of each other, they entered the Sky Pillar’s waterfall in batches and were unexpectedly orderly.

The Justice Pirate Group waited until the Mother Tree Pirate Group had gone in before officially setting off.

The youth ordered the supply ship to stay outside, taking the remaining ten warships, along with the hidden Deep Sea Monster Fish, crashing into the Sky Pillar and into the Half-plane.
