Chapter 404 Western Sea Bait, The Plan of Group Destruction
The nearby Dog Demons felt their faces sink. They slowly surrounded the Deified Dog and growled, “Where did this Dog Demon come from? How dare you act recklessly in front of Lord Dog?”
The Dog Demon who was massaging Blackie hurriedly signaled, “Drag him away. Don’t let him upset Lord Dog.”
“Hmph, how ignorant!”
The Deified Dog looked disappointed. It said slowly, “I thought the Dogs gathered to become powerful again. Who knew you all lived like degenerates? You only gathered here to play, and you have a degenerate for a Lord Dog. It’s clearly not a good dog but you’re all blindly protecting it. How stupid!”
The Deified Dog sounded hurt. It leaped to the air and levitated. It looked directly at Blackie, feeling bossy and proud. “It seems like I have to reveal myself. I’m the true Deified Dog under the Saintly God Jiro. I’m the first Dog Immortal in the realm and I’m a Taiyi Golden Immortal. I may not be the best cultivator in the realm but no dog can compare to me. Hurry up and kneel to your new Lord Dog!” it said while flying high up in the air. It stood at the highest point to become the center of attention. It looked down on the dog crowd.
The Dogs started to make noises. They looked at each other with shock in their eyes. They kept observing the Deified Dog like they learned something new. “No way. Is it really the Deified Dog? The famous God Jiro’s bootlicker?”
“No wonder he has such high cultivation. This is so awesome. It’s still alive. How old is he?”
“One of the eldest amongst Dogs!”
“I must admit that he’s famous but I still insist on protecting Blackie as our Lord Dog. After all, there’s dog food for us.”
“I thought so, too.”
“Silence!”
Blackie seemed to be mentally exhausted. It softly sighed and stood up. It walked forward and silently looked at the Deified Dog in the sky. A mountain breeze slowly blew its fur. It asked in a low voice, “You want to dance?”
“Ha, you still dare to speak to me in that tone. I have to say, how courageous of you!” laughed the Deified Dog. It started to boast, “I won’t kill you, but buzz off!”
It opened its mouth and blew out a hurricane. The wind was harmless but it was very strong. It blew toward Blackie!
The rocks and trees behind Blackie were instantly blown away like paper. They vanished into the faraway area.
However, Blackie stayed in place. Only his fur was moving. Blackie even squinted his eyes as if it was enjoyable.
“Nice skill. You could fan me next time.” Blackie slowly raised its paw and licked it with his tongue. Then, he placed his paw back on the ground.
Boom!
A huge dog paw instantly appeared in the sky like a falling meteor. It attacked the Deified Dog.
The Deified Dog suddenly felt like the sky went dark. The sunlight was blocked out and he was covered by the huge shadow.
When it looked up, he saw the dog paw incoming! At that moment, its eyes almost popped out of its skull. The Deified Dog opened its mouth wide and its fur stood on ends like a porcupine. It went blank from fear. Bark… Whine!
Then, he fell from the sky. When it crashed, there was a huge hole in the ground that almost penetrated the entire mountain. Everyone went silent. Nothing was moving in the hole.
The Deified Dog laid in the hole on all fours. It looked confused like its brain had not yet caught up with the situation.
‘I’m the first Dog Immortal but I seem to have been slapped away by an ordinary black dog?
‘What’s going on?
‘Times have changed?’
Blackie went back to the debaucheries. He shut his eyes and said calmly, “Drag him down to the dog cage.”
“Wise choice, King.”
At the Western Sea.
There were a lot of dead bodies floating on the water’s surface. Not just seafood, there were also a lot of various animals. The sea became like a huge hotpot.
According to principles, soldiers fought soldiers and generals fought generals.
Lord Taoist Taihua battled the Eel King. They were both Daluo Golden Immortals so their battle was the most majestic and ferocious one out on the battlefield. They battled on the sea’s surface and in the air. It was an amazing fight.
Logically speaking, Lord Taoist Taihua had the Sun Sword and he was the Jade Emperor. He was also an elite amongst Daluo Golden Immortals, so he should be able to easily defeat an evil Eel Demon. However, that was not the case.
The weapon of the evil Eel Demon was also extraordinary. The short black dagger was an Intermediate Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. He also had a blue flag levitating around him. The blue flag flowed in the wind. It was another Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. Looking closely, one would realize that the sea waves were moving rhythmically with the flag.
The flag helped the Black Eel spit out waves of black water.
Xiao Chengfeng was battling a golden Lion King. Ye Liuyun was battling a white Bear Demon. Ao Cheng was fighting another Eel Demon. They were both in their original forms. The Dragon and the Eel twisted around each other and fought like crazy in the sea.
Nanan was also shockingly powerful. She avoided the battle areas and blended in with the cultivators who were not Immortals yet. She did not use her spells but her attacks were still powerful. Even the Demons did not dare to fight her with force.
Thankfully, she was not an Immortal. Bigshots on the battlefield would not notice her even if she did great.
“What a tough battle.”
Li Nianfan was a viewer. He could see it clearly. He had to shake his head and sigh.
The Jade Emperor was probably going to lose. The situation was obvious—the ‘Western Sea problem’ was just bait. They were already prepared to fight the Heavenly Palace.
They were well-prepared. Not only did they have a sea army, but they also had an animal army. They made it clear.
The Demons were collaborating!
Most importantly, the Heavenly Palace had already used up all their moves and strategies in the battle. However, those evil Eel Demons seemed to have some hidden tricks left.
The battle was on their turf, too. The longer the battle held out, the more disadvantages the Heavenly Palace had.
“The little lion has thick skin, truly tough to beat!” Xiao Chengfeng squinted. Shiny swords surrounded him and attacked the golden Lion King.
However, the golden Lion King had a golden orbit around its head. It was a Deluxe Defense Treasure. It formed a golden shield around the Lion King and blocked the swords. It had a great defense.
Xiao Chengfeng did not look happy at all. He did not have a lot of Immortal Items. The items of the Lion King were better than his. He felt troubled.
He glanced at the Sun Sword of Taoist Taihua. He looked envious. He suddenly attacked the Lion King by making a slashing gesture with his hands. The longsword in front of him instantly transformed into a million locust-like swords, stopping the Lion King in his act.
Then, he shouted, “Taoist Taihua, lend me your sword!”
Lord Taoist Taihua did not reply but the Sun Sword knocked away the short Black Dagger and turned into a golden light. Then, it instantly appeared in front of Xiao Chengfeng.
Xiao Chengfeng did not dare to delay. He quickly held the Sun Sword and focused. He flipped and tumbled in the air as his sword aura turned into a golden dragon. Then, he attacked the Lion King!
The sword aura was groundbreaking. The surface of the Western Sea was slashed apart. Countless Western Sea Demons were annihilated.
The Deluxe Spiritual Treasure became like an orbit for show. The shield was slashed through like tofu!
The Lion King froze, looking horrified. Then, it turned to dust and was gone with the wind. It all happened within two seconds.
Xiao Chengfeng did not want to return the Sun Sword. He said, “What a nice sword. If I had this sword, I’d be invincible.” Lord Taoist Taihua was agitated by the insolent words. He had to scold him, “I order you as your General to shut up!”
‘You’d be invincible if you had this sword? Does that mean I’m so trash that I’m undeserving of this sword? ‘You’d attack your own teammates with your insolent lines?’
Splash!
Before Xiao Chengfeng could relax, another figure came out from the Western Sea and sprinted toward him. It was an Elephant Demon with a huge ax in hand. He was a Taiyi Golden Immortal!
Li Nianfan felt his heart sink. He was worried. “Something’s off! Why would they hide their teammates?”
The only purpose for that was to hold the opponent in place. They would hold their opponent in place because…they were trying to buy time so they could destroy their opponent in groups!
Someone was going to kill the soldiers in one attack!
If the soldiers were killed, there would be no one left at the Heavenly Palace. The Heavenly Palace was freshly rebuilt. They would only be left with civil servants.
Li Nianfan immediately made a decision. He quickly said, “Dragin, tell them to retreat.”
“Yes, brother.” Dragin obediently nodded. Then, she lifted her arm and cast a spell. The seawater splashed up like a fountain. Endless streams of water circled in the air and formed a huge word. ‘RETREAT!’
The huge word sparkled and shined because of the spell. Li Nianfan was cautious. That was the signal he came up with.
Lord Taoist Taihua was unwilling to leave but he would not disobey Li Nianfan. He immediately started to retreat.
“Haha, trying to leave? Too late!”
The Eel King laughed maniacally. The flag stood on the surface of the sea and rattled.
Suddenly, multiple water pillars surrounded them…
