Chapter 306: Capture, Xu Qian

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Bang!

A loud noise came from the bottom of the sea.

‘What a strong shock wave!’

Xu Ning felt the ship shake violently again.

‘Isn’t the aftershock of this battle a little too powerful?’

Xu Ning felt that something was wrong.

He was about to jump into the water when he suddenly saw the water surface split apart.

Tong Gang carried Feng Qi and jumped out of the water.

“Senior Brother Feng!”

Xu Ning saw Feng Qi’s condition and his pupils contracted.

Feng Qi was covered in blood, with one of his arms broken and his face pale.

Tong Gang carried Feng Qi to the deck, and Xu Ning quickly hurried over.

“Take this pill first.”

Xu Ning gave Feng Qi a pill to stop his injuries.

“What happened just now?”

Xu Ning asked.

“When we subdued the underwater demon beast that collided with the ship, the demon beast actually self-destructed!”

Tong Gang’s eyes were full of lingering fear. “Brother Feng was too close to that demon beast so he was caught up in the blast.”

“Self-destructed?”

Xu Ning frowned.

The force of a demon beast’s self-destruction was indeed terrifying.

Their bodies were already strong to begin with, and coupled with them completely squeezing out every inch of power in their bloodline, they could release an attack several times stronger than their own strength.

The demon beast that hit the bottom of the ship just now had just entered the high level of the dao realm. The explosive force of its self-destruction was something that even Feng Qi, who was at the peak of the elementary origin realm, could not withstand.

“Demon beasts self-destructing… That is truly a rare occurrence…”

Doubt brewed in Xu Ning’s heart.

The intelligence of high level dao realm demon beasts were no lesser than humans, so they rarely took the initiative to take risks.

This was the first time they had seen a high level dao realm demon beast target someone stronger than it with the intent of self-destructing itself.

“Fortunately, I dodged in time, otherwise I would have lost more than just one arm.”

After taking the pill, Feng Qi’s condition improved a little.

He then took out a jade green pill from his storage ring and swallowed it.

Xu Ning recognized this pill. After taking this pill, Feng Qi’s arm would regenerate itself.

And this process would only take a few days.

Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, two more loud booms rang out.

“It came from the ships next to us!”

Xu Ning got up and looked into the distance, only to see the two adjacent warships swaying.

Afterwards, a few underwater demon beasts jumped out of the sea and onto the ship. Once on board, it began to fight against the people on the ship.

“Could it be… an ambush?!”

When Tong Gang saw this scene, he instantly realized what was going on.

Sure enough, in the next moment, another wave of demon beasts gathered next to the ship they were on, and those demon beasts jumped onto the ship like flying fish as well.

Those demon beasts were in all shapes and sizes, and the weakest among them was in the elementary-level of the dao realm.

“Defend against the enemy!”

Tong Gang suddenly shouted.

The soldiers on the ship instantly followed the order. They took out their dao spears and fought back against the demon beasts that were rushing up from the seabed.

The soldiers attacked the weaker demon beasts alone.

As for the stronger ones, the soldiers joined forces to attack them.

Xu Ning immediately started to fight as well. He swung out his astral qi and sliced a weaker demon beast into two.

‘These demon beasts don’t seem to have any self-awareness, they only have their beastial instincts!’

As they fought, Xu Ning noticed something.

He could clearly sense that these attacking demon beasts were just filled with animalistic instincts, there was no trace of intelligence in their eyes.

This kind of trait was usually only seen on mortal realm demon beasts.

‘Moreover, the appearance of these demon beasts is very unbalanced!’

Xu Ning had read a lot of books when he was in the Harmony King Mansion, so he knew a little about sea demon beasts.

Some parts of the appearance of these sea demon beasts in front of him completely matched the description in the book, but at the same time, they also had some features that were not recorded in the book.

‘They are all mutated demon beasts?’

Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘It seems that this is indeed an ambush from the Hidden Sect!’

It was understandable for a mutated demon beast to appear, but it was obviously not a coincidence for more than a dozen of mutated demon beasts to appear at the same time.

Xu Ning decided to not show any mercy. He directly held the Flowing Cloud Piercer in his hand, and every time he attacked, he would cut down an attacking demon beast.

His killing speed was much faster than the other soldiers.

When Tong Gang and Feng Qi, who was still injured, saw this, they also began to deal with these demon beasts that kept rushing up to the warship.

Soon, the blood of demon beasts covered the entire warship, and corpses of demon beasts were everywhere.

‘The entire fleet is attacked!’

As Xu Ning attacked, he noticed that the entire fleet of more than twenty warships were also ambushed.

The warship they were on was fine, and there was not much damage.

However, some of the warships had already been capsized after being attacked by powerful demon beasts.

Although these warships were not secret treasures, they were all first-class dao weapons. It showed that these demon beasts that could destroy first-class dao weapons were extremely powerful.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Xu Ning killed another two more high level dao realm demon beasts that were about to self-destruct.

Once these demon beasts felt threatened, they would take the initiative to self-destruct and display their greatest value.

Fortunately, Xu Ning, Tong Gang, Feng Qi, and the other soldiers were all being very careful. They were all very decisive and experienced, resulting in many demon beasts being killed before they had the opportunity to self-destruct.

‘These demon beasts must be controlled by a Master Tamer…’

Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘These Master Tamers should be hiding nearby or at the bottom of the sea…’

Thinking of this point, Xu Ning turned his head and said to Tong Gang and Feng Qi, “I’ll go out and take a look!”

After saying that, Xu Ning flew at a low altitude and followed the route of the demon beasts in the sea to find the Master Tamers.

Whoosh!

“Huh?”

Not long after Xu Ning moved out, another figure rushed out of the fleet.

Xu Ning turned his head slightly and saw that it was Yu Qiao.

In Xu Ning’s fleet, besides the experts of the Imperial Court, he and Yu Qiao were the strongest. They were the first to figure the crux of the situation, which was to find the source of these demon beasts.

Xu Ning did not stop to wait for Yu Qiao, instead he continued to search faster.

‘These Master Tamers must have worn Aura Concealment Rings to hide their aura!’

According to the route of the demon beasts in the sea, Xu Ning figured out their approximate hiding spots.

He magnified his senses to the extreme.

Although Xu Ning was in the elementary origin realm, his perception was comparable to a master in the origin connection realm.

‘Found them!’

While he was searching the sea, Xu Ning suddenly noticed subtle abnormal fluctuations under the sea at a certain spot.

Immediately, he dived into the water and rushed forward with the Flowing Cloud Piercer in his hand.

Boom!

Xu Ning pierced forward and exploded a piece of underwater rock.

Sure enough, there was a gray-robed figure lurking under the rocks.

After seeing Xu Ning, the gray-robed man seemed a little flustered.

In response to Xu Ning’s appearance, the gray-robed man waved his hand and released two sea demon beasts from his spatial treasure.

Xu Ning saw this and attacked with his Flowing Cloud Piercer, easily killing them.

Immediately after, Xu Ning chased after the gray-robed man.

“Tell me, where are the others from the Hidden Sect?”

Xu Ning pulled him out of the water and asked sternly.

Although the gray-robed man was a Master Tamer, he was only in the elementary origin realm. He was controlled by Xu Ning without any opportunity to resist.

Faced with Xu Ning’s question, the gray-robed man gritted his teeth before his head slowly tilted to the side. His lifeforce was extinguished.

‘He’s dead?’

Xu Ning did not expect this.

He didn’t expect that once he captured him, he would kill himself.

“You also couldn’t capture him alive?”

At this moment, Yu Qiao also rushed over from afar, holding a dead gray-robed person in her hand as well.

Obviously, Yu Qiao had also noticed some traces just now, but just like Xu Ning, she couldn’t keep the man alive.

“No, I didn’t sense how they commit suicide.”

Xu Ning checked the gray-robed man and found that his heart meridians had been broken, but there was no poison or other abnormalities in his body.

“Let’s search again!”

Yu Qiao said.

“Okay.”

Xu Ning responded.

Afterwards, the two searched the nearby waters.

During this process, the other seeds finally realized what they should do and fumbled to search nearby.

The group of people began to search for the hidden Master Tamers.

After another round of searching, two more gray-robed people were caught. It was still Xu Ning and Yu Qiao who caught them.

Their perception and strength were something the other seeds could not compare to.

Unfortunately, these two gray-robed Master Tamers were not successfully kept alive as well.

For this, Xu Ning had already taken precautions. After he had captured this person, he had knocked him out first, but after knocking him out, his heart meridians would still be severed.

Obviously, these ambushers of the Hidden Sect were fully prepared.

“I don’t think there is anyone else…”

Yu Qiao came to Xu Ning’s side, holding a corpse in one hand.

“In this case, let’s go back.”

Xu Ning guessed that all the hidden Master Tamers had been found.

Thus, the two returned to their ships.

The other seeds who were also searching the waters were a little jealous when they saw this.

This trip to the sea was a selection test, but Xu Ning and Yu Qiao had already achieved something before they even began to attack the camp of the Hidden Sect, leaving them behind on the starting line.

However, even though they were jealous, they couldn’t snatch their credit, so they could only return helplessly.

Xu Ning did not return to his warship directly, instead he followed Yu Qiao and returned to the central warship.

The person holding the fort on this ship was the general of the fleet, Xu Qian, a genuine dao realm ninth stage master.

“Master Xu, the people who ambushed us have all been captured!”

Yu Qiao brought Xu Ning to Xu Qian.

Yu Qiao was already on the central warship, so she had gotten to know Xu Qian before this. As for Xu Ning, this was the first time Xu Ning had seen this dao realm ninth stage expert.

“Master Xu.”

Xu Ning threw the two corpses aside and bowed slightly.

Xu Qian did not give Xu Ning a lot of pressure. Comparatively, the pressure exuded from the Core Sea Demon Lord was much stronger.

“These four are the ones who ambushed us?”

Xu Qian glanced at Xu Ning, then looked at the corpses on the ground.

“Yes, but unfortunately, no one could be captured alive.”

Yu Qiao responded.
