Chapter 524 - 523: Natural-born Sea God

Chapter 524: Chapter 523: Natural-born Sea God

The terrifying pillar of water, like a million tons of floodwater compressed into one, erupted with explosive force.

BANG!

The Martial Artists on the city wall had such keen hearing they could clearly make out the horrifying sound of Zhong Wanwu’s bones, and even his flesh, being scoured away.

In a flash of blue light, Qin Feng appeared beside Zhong Wanwu’s recoiling figure. The next instant, he flashed back to the top of the city wall.

The entire sequence was executed flawlessly.

All eyes fell upon the Zhong Wanwu in Qin Feng’s arms. Seeing his miserable state, the hearts of the Martial Arts Strongmen clenched, and their gazes toward Yuanfei were now tinged with fear.

Zhong Wanwu had gone from a dashing young man to a mangled pulp of flesh and blood.

An entire layer of his skin and flesh had been scoured away, revealing bone and viscera.

If not for the fact that Zhong Wanwu was a Sea of Reincarnation Realm Martial Artist who managed to protect his internal organs at the last moment, he likely would have been utterly obliterated by that single blow.

Even so, he was only clinging to life by a thread.

"Junior Brother Zhong!"

"Junior Brother Zhong!"

Three voices cried out in succession as Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, and Cui Wenxiang flashed over, unable to hide the sorrow in their eyes.

’Our Junior Brother... his condition is just too wretched.’

’That expert from the Water Ape Race is far too savage.’

"Venerable Lord, please, you must save Junior Brother Zhong!"

Qin Feng glanced at Zhong Wanwu. His injuries were severe; he was hanging on by a single breath. If it had been anyone else, they likely would have had no way to save him.

But Qin Feng was different. He had several types of Spirit Medicine on him that were more than enough to save the man.

"Rest assured. He’s one of my men; he won’t die." With a casual wave of his hand, Qin Feng condensed several drops of Water of Life on his fingertips.

’Such a rich life aura!’ Nearby, the expressions of the three Martial Arts Giants flickered, unable to hide a trace of their astonishment.

At Qin Feng’s direction, the crystal-clear, rosy Water of Life transformed into droplets of rain that fell upon Zhong Wanwu’s ghastly body.

Visible to the naked eye, tiny tendrils of new flesh began to sprout from Zhong Wanwu’s internal organs, while skin and muscle grew back over his bones.

Zhong Wanwu’s injuries recovered quickly. Although he appeared to have suffered a great blow to his Primordial Qi, his life was well and truly saved.

Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, and Cui Wenxiang were overjoyed.

Nearby, the three Martial Arts Giants—the Li Family Ancestor, Dongfang Taiyi, and Liu Yunlou—exchanged a glance, secretly astonished.

’A Spirit Medicine that can instantly heal such injuries is incredibly precious.’

’For this City Lord to use such a treasure to treat his subordinate without batting an eye is truly remarkable.’

Seeing that Zhong Wanwu’s life was now safe, Cui Wenxiang, the one with the highest Cultivation Realm among the four from Lei Ming Sect, stood up.

"Venerable Lord, let me go! I must avenge Junior Brother Zhong!"

Qin Feng shook his head. "No need. Leave this to me. You all will watch over Yunhu City. Don’t let anyone with ulterior motives disrupt the peace!"

After speaking, Qin Feng’s figure flickered and appeared outside the city walls.

Upon seeing Qin Feng appear, the young members of the Sea Race on the Traveling Palace revealed cold smirks.

Seeing Qin Feng, Yuanfei sneered. "So you’re the so-called City Lord of Yunhu City. Finally willing to show your face?"

The moment he finished speaking, he used the same trick again, his ten fingers rapidly forming a Seal Technique.

The next moment, a terrifying pillar of water erupted from between his ten fingers.

BOOM!

The surging pillar of water erupted in an instant, carrying the crushing weight of ten thousand tons of seawater.

Qin Feng’s expression didn’t change as he stood his ground, unmoving.

"This human is done for!" Seeing this, the many young Sea Race members on the water’s surface laughed mockingly.

A three-eyed youth from the Ice Eye Royal Family spoke up. "Yuanfei may seem arrogant, but he’s actually meticulous. The Central State Ninety-nine Domains have their Martial Arts Pride Ranking, and we of the Sea Race have our Sea Realm Pride Ranking. Although Yuanfei hasn’t made it onto the list, his strength is honestly no worse than those Sea Race geniuses who have!"

A short member of the Sea Race gave a low chuckle. "Indeed. Yuanfei possesses the purest bloodline of the Ancient Water Ape Race. You must understand, the Ancient Water Apes were powerful beings capable of fighting True Dragons in close combat underwater. Their Water Control Power can be described as sublime!"

When the short Sea Race member spoke, many of the Sea Race experts glanced sideways, their expressions holding a hint of apprehension.

Everyone invited by the Sea Demon Queen was a genius from one of the various races of the sea. But even among geniuses, there are different tiers.

The strongest, without a doubt, was the center of everyone’s attention: the Eldest Princess from the Huaihai Dragon Palace.

She was of the True Dragon Race. And though she was only a Flood Dragon with a diluted bloodline, she was still beyond what most other Sea Races could ever hope to challenge.

Aside from the Eldest Princess of Huaihai, the second tier of geniuses included the short Sea Race member, Yu Hualong of the Double-Pupiled Sea Spirit race, as well as the Kui Water King of the Demon Sunflower Race, Prince Emperor Shitian of the Ice Eye Royal Family, Princess Zisha of the Spiritual Clam Race, and Young Master Hai Kun of the Whale Shark Clan.

A few others were ranked just a half-step below them.

As for the rest, they were a full step weaker than that group.

Hai Kun, the Young Master of the Whale Shark Clan, nodded. "Yuanfei’s strength is indeed extraordinary. I’ve heard he once killed a Deep Sea Giant Beast with his bare hands!"

The Endless Sea was incomparably vast, and the life within it was even more abundant than on land. The most numerous among them were aquatic Fierce Beasts and Barbaric Beasts.

Generally speaking, the larger a marine Fierce Beast’s body, the stronger it was.

Deep Sea Giant Beasts were enormous in size.

The weakest of the Deep Sea Giant Beasts were comparable to Martial Arts Giants, and some of the stronger ones could even contend with Venerables and Demon Gods.

But in the next moment, the expressions of the Sea Race members changed drastically.

The mighty pillar of water hurtled toward Qin Feng. Just as it was about to strike him, it suddenly froze in place.

’Is that the Clan Leader’s Void Power?’

On the city wall, Qin Yumei’s eyes flickered.

"No, this is absolute Water Manipulation Power!"

The Li Family Ancestor forced the words out, one by one.

Qin Feng had raised one hand and, in an instant, seized control over the pillar of water.

This was his Innate Divine Power of Ocean Control.

When Qin Feng forged his nine Sea God Bones, this Innate Divine Ability had instantly reached the apex of a Tier Nine Divine Ability. It was only one step away from returning to its source and becoming a true Innate Origin Great Divine Ability.

BOOM!

The terrifying torrent reversed course, shooting back like a cannonball and slamming into the unprepared Yuanfei.

Just like Zhong Wanwu before him, Yuanfei was sent flying backward with a thunderous crash.

Seeing this, the faces of the many Sea Race Martial Artists took on peculiar expressions.

’Someone actually snatched Water Manipulation Power right out of the hands of a Sea Race expert.’

’The Sea Race are the natural-born children of the ocean, its favored darlings.’

’This is especially true for a powerful ocean race like the Ancient Water Apes; every one of them is a master of the waves. Even the True Dragon Race might not be able to best them when it comes to the Water Element.’

’And now, one of them has been suppressed in the very area they excel at most.’

"Could it be that Yuanfei is having an off day?"

"Or perhaps he underestimated his opponent?"

"If not, then this Sea of Reincarnation Realm Martial Artist must have cultivated some Legendary-grade Water Element Martial Dao technique, right?"

As they speculated, the young Sea Race members exchanged strange looks.

Nearby, the Great Dragon Maiden and the double-pupiled Yu Hualong exchanged a glance, a shared shock in their hearts.

’It’s actually the Sea God Body! Nine Sea God Bones... he’s a natural-born son of the ocean, a King of the Ocean!’
