Such power, even if he falls into the center, is unlikely to escape unscathed; at most, he might use secret techniques to flee for his life.
And at the same time, two beams of Spiritial Light emanated from within Bright Mirror Immortal City in the far rear of the Eastern Yi, arriving at Da Kong True Monarchâs side within a few breaths.
The Escaping Light flashed by, revealing two additional Deity Transformations from the Eastern Continent Righteous Dao.
Ni Yuanzhong and Shenxi.
However, the two of them had only recently attained Deity Transformation, and upon witnessing the situation, their expressions were more shocked than that of Da Kong True Monarch.
"Sect Master Chenâs strength is truly terrifying!"
It was the first time Shenxi witnessed Chen Mobaiâs power post-Deity Transformation, seeing him standing atop the ocean, blocking the ancient Flood Dragon crowned with the Sea Suppressing Bead from stepping ashore, he was utterly astonished.
The Flood Dragon in such a state was already a peak powerhouse in the Tianhe Realm, possessing boundless Mana over the Mysterious Sea, even Yuan Qingque of the past would have retreated thrice in its presence.
But Chen Mobai had the Flood Dragon suppressed in a frontal confrontation within the Mysterious Sea.
The three onlookers recognized that the Flood Dragonâs might was purely borne from geographical advantage; once it leaves the Mysterious Sea, even with the Sea Suppressing Bead, it would not have an easy time.
After all, a Yi Yuan Avatar at the peak of Deity Transformation, combined with the Primordial Clock, is exceedingly restraining against Five Elements properties.
If not for the high grade of the Sea Suppressing Bead, it might have been suppressed by the Primordial Clock at first encounter.
"Letâs strike together; we must drive back the Flood Dragon. If it is allowed to rampage like this, the land of the Eastern Continent may suffer further loss."
Da Kong True Monarch commanded, and Ni Yuanzhong and Shenxi both nodded.
As three Escaping Lights flickered, the trio had already landed beside Chen Mobai.
"Little friend, we are late."
Da Kong True Monarch spoke with a guilty expression, but Chen Mobai merely shook his head gently, internally sighing in slight relief.
The Primordial Clockâs grade was low; in the earlier collision with the Sea Suppressing Bead, the Artifact Spirit had sent a warning, indicating it could endure at most three more times.
The old Flood Dragon on the other hand, spiraling over the Mysterious Sea, had True Spirit aura unfathomably unspent, even growing stronger.
If Da Kong True Monarch and others hadnât arrived, after the Five Elements Sect rescued the living beings from the Eastern Yi Coast under the protection of the Myriad Sword Dharma Body Sword Star, he too would have retreated to the Sky Curtain Ground Network Formation, leveraging the terrain to combat the Flood Dragon.
"A few youngsters coming wonât change the battleâs circumstances."
Seeing Da Kong True Monarchâs trio, the ancient Flood Dragonâs expression remained unchanged. As Tianhe Realmâs oldest extant True Spirit, it had every right to address the Deity Transformations of Eastern Continent Righteous Dao as youngsters.
"You depraved dragon, after today, your Mysterious Flood DragonRoyal Court will be the greatest enemy of our Eastern Continent Righteous Dao. It seems youâve prepared to follow the Golden Lion Royal Courtâs downfall."
Ni Yuanzhong spoke icily, the phantom of the Tongtian Refining Road Tower appeared in his eyes, emanating a force that even unsettled the Flood Dragonâs True Spirit Bloodline.
"Golden Lion Royal Court is nothing and doesnât deserve to be mentioned alongside my Mysterious Flood DragonRoyal Court. My Mysterious Sea is boundless and will one day entirely swallow your Eastern Continent."
Snorting disdainfully, the Flood Dragon looked around. The Sea Suppressing Bead, already free from the Primordial Clockâs constraint, returned atop its head.
"If you want to engulf Eastern Continent, then we shall intervene to fill up the Mysterious Sea. At that time, regardless of the Sea Suppressing Bead in your possession, your path will only lead to death."
Shenxi spoke, unleashing a Spirit Talisman gleaming with Immortal Light from his sleeve, exuding a thick aura of concentration that even Chen Mobai found threatening.
Is this a Sixth Rank Spirit Talisman?!
Yet it wasnât all; a square bronze cauldron flew from Shenxiâs Storage Bag, each cauldron foot resembling a True Dragon, and both cauldron ears equally depicted True Dragons with raised mouths.
With a single glance, Chen Mobai recognized the six dragon forms of the Yi Yuan Avatar from the Eastern Emperor Courtâs Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture.
"The Dragon Capturing Tripod?! Indeed in your Dao Morale Sectâs hands, you hypocrites!"
For the first time, the old Flood Dragonâs face changed upon seeing the cauldron, and cursed Shenxi.
Even Da Kong True Monarch and Ni Yuanzhong exhibited slight strange expressions.
Back when the Eastern Emperor Court disbanded, the Dragon Capturing Tripod, as a supreme treasure of heritage, naturally drew Holy Landâs focus. Several Deity Transformations had intervened, but were helpless against the mysterious True Dragon, and could only watch as the Dragon Capturing Tripod was taken away.
"Merely an imitation, a Dan Cauldron the Empress of Eastern Emperor Court constructed from Five Continents and Four Seasâ Heavenly And Earthly Treasures for refining the Immortality Pill."
Shenxiâs speech didnât change at all, sharing the provenance of the Sixth Rank Dan Cauldron.
In the Eastern Emperor Courtâs heyday, Dao Morale Sectâs successive Deity Transformations served as royal Alchemists. This Dan Cauldron was intended for their use.
And after the Eastern Emperor Courtâs fall, the cauldron naturally belonged to their Dao Morale Sect.
Realizing it wasnât the Dragon Capturing Tripod, the old Flood Dragon instantly felt unthreatened.
Snorting coldly again, he observed once more, activating the Sea Suppressing Beadâs power to guide the countless Mysterious Sea around himself, preparing to withdraw.
Though his Mana was endless atop the Mysterious Sea, with the Sixth Rank Peak Treasure Bead for protection granting him invincibility, his Divine Sense and energy were finite.
After all, he wasnât young anymore, while the others were in the prime of life.
Moreover, whether it was the Primordial Clock, the Tongtian Refining Road Tower, or Shenxiâs Sixth Rank Spirit Talisman, they were all targeting his Sixth Rank power. A careless slip here and the end of the Mysterious Flood DragonRoyal Court could indeed occur.
Better to leave opportunities for gradual attrition in the future.
After all, these four Deity Transformations couldnât stay in Eastern Yi indefinitely.
Now that the restraining Sun God Tree was gone, the Eastern Yi Coast was defenseless; he could come and go as he wished.
No need to rush.
Of course, some parting words were in order.
"From now on, your Eastern Continent shall live under constant fear, as I wield the Mysterious Seaâs force to gradually drown the lands your ancestors lived on."
Upon hearing the old Flood Dragonâs words, Ni Yuanzhong snorted coldly first, the Tongtian Refining Road Tower in his eyes transformed into reality, releasing a Mysterious Nether Immortal Light, imbued with a power capturing all True Spirits, covering the massive black-scaled golden-eyed Flood Dragon.
However, the Sea Suppressing Bead turned, and azure brilliance already blocked the Mysterious Nether Immortal Light.
Da Kong True Monarchâs brow furrowed slightly, the golden and silver rings in his hand flashed as the Mysterious Nether Immortal Light, nearly erased by azure brilliance, vanished into the distance and unexpectedly teleported through the Sea Suppressing Beadâs defense, landing on the Flood Dragonâs neck.
"You bastards from the Taixu MiaoMiao Palace always know how to ambush!"
Feeling his neck constricted, his True Spirit Bloodline seemingly incapable of functioning, the Flood Dragon cursed angrily, opening its mouth to swallow the Sea Suppressing Bead.
Azure brilliance erupted from his mouth, instantly spreading across him, dispelling the Mysterious Nether Immortal Light of the Tongtian Refining Road Tower.
At this time, Shenxi already wielded the Sixth Rank Dan Cauldron, heavily crashing into the Flood Dragonâs spine.
Da Kong True Monarch exuded silver light, putting all his effort into activating the Void Lock.
Just as the older Flood Dragon was about to resist, it suddenly stiffened over the ocean.
With a dull cracking sound, dozens of pitch-black scales shattered under the Dan Cauldronâs force. Beneath them, however, the Flood Dragonâs flesh was long protected by the Sea Suppressing Bead, so the cauldron only bent its back, driving it into the sea, triggering massive waves.
Then, like an extreme tensioned bowstring, the Flood Dragonâs elongated body rebounded with a twitch, sending the cauldron skyward.
Yet at this moment, ribbons of multicolored light flickered among the Flood Dragonâs scales, a wound tearing open where the cauldron struck before, peeling over a thousand black scales and a thick layer of skin.
