It was only now he realized that Chu Xunxian wasn’t lying to him.

He really had killed an Ancient-class Stranger before. More than one, in fact.

He really could end him without using the Natural Five Phases Flags.

A few breaths of silence later, the Eastern Sea Dragon King asked slowly, “If I submit, will you humans let me live?”

“A dog that bites the hand that feeds it will bite you if an opportunity were to present itself,” Chu Xunxian said coldly. “In that case, why keep it at all?”

“I thought you humans always say to put down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha? Why must you corner me?” The Eastern Sea Dragon King asked.

“The Buddha may preach such a thing, but I am not the Buddha. My duty is to send you to the Buddha!” Chu Xunxian replied.

The Eastern Sea Dragon King was silent for a couple more breaths. Then, he suddenly started laughing all of a sudden. “Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll get the chance to meet the Buddha. I could introduce you to the Dragon Sovereign of the four seas though!”

As he continued laughing, a pillar of light suddenly burst out of the sea and into the clouds.

Similar pillars of light could be seen at the Western Sea, Southern Sea, and Northern Sea.

The pillars of light were golden at the beginning, but they gradually became blood red in color.

It was because the bloody and body of the aquatic people, Strangers and humans were drawn into the pillars of light somehow.

When the pillars of light turned completely red, bloody clouds slowly crept in and covered the sky of the affected areas.

Something absolutely terrifying seemed to be brewing within the clouds.

Seeing this, Chu Xunxian waved the Natural Five Phases Flags and fired a beam of five-colored profound light into the sky. It looked like he was planning to disperse the bloody clouds.

However, for the first time since the battle began, the unstoppable five-colored profound light failed to affect the bloody clouds at all. It simply sank into the clouds and disappeared into nothing.

The Eastern Sea Dragon King sneered at his futile attempt to dispel the bloody clouds. “Hahaha… it’s useless. Once the Great Demonic Array of Million Sacrifice began, it cannot be stopped.”

“The Great Demonic Array of Million Sacrifice? So that’s what you people are plotting!” Chu Xunxian exclaimed in realization. “You’re using a sacrificial ritual to release the Dragon Sovereign from its seal! How ambitious!”

“Hahahaha! Too bad you found out too late.” The Eastern Sea Dragon King’s laughter grew louder. “We were originally planning to sacrifice the people of the Four Seas on the day of the Four Seas Summit, but you saw through our ploy.”

“It doesn’t matter though. This works just fine.”

As he spoke, the bloody clouds in the sky began spinning rapidly until it transformed into a massive vortex. At the same time, a terrifying suction force began pulling at the wind and the sea. It wasn’t long before an unbelievably thick pillar of water rose from the sea surface and into the vortex.

It wasn’t just the sea water. The countless lives and spiritual energies residing within the sea were all devoured by the vortex.

From a distance, it almost looked like a bridge that connected heaven and earth.

Chu Xunxian did not try to stop it. If what the Eastern Sea Dragon King said was true, then it couldn’t be stopped anyway. Instead, he rushed to protect the survivors of the Nether End Army and the Chu geniuses using the Natural Five Phases Flag.

Meanwhile, Ye Qing was watching the titanic pillar of water and murmuring to himself, “So this is what the Four Seas Dragon Palace is planning. But how did they know where the Deep Abyss is located?”

The Great Demonic Array of Million Sacrifice was an incredibly evil array that could breach the natural barrier between two worlds using the blood of the living as fuel. Usually, only heretics and monsters wearing human skin, Strangers and evils would attempt such a thing. The goal was usually to summon an exceedingly powerful and terrifying existence to the human world.

However, one of the prerequisites to execute the Great Demonic Array of Million Sacrifice was to find out the exact location of the point A and point B and anchor them together so that a connection would be formed. Only then could the ritual breach the walls between the two worlds and form a bridge that would allow the specified existence to cross.

Practically everyone had heard of the name “Deep Abyss” before, but few people actually knew of its location. There was a quote in the Book of Strange Things that stated this: “Where the sky ends, and the ground bottoms lies the Deep Abyss. Here in the Deep Abyss, there is no life, no day or night, and no seasons. There is only eternal chaos. Only the strongest may learn of its location, and only the sagest may reach it.”

This was one of the biggest reasons the ancient Sages of humanity chose to seal the Dragon Sovereign in the Deep Abyss, and why they kept its location a secret. It was to keep the evildoers from finding the Deep Abyss and releasing the Dragon Sovereign.

However, the Eastern Sea Dragon King clearly knew of the Deep Abyss’ location. This should not have happened.

“Who knows?” Feng Qingyou threw out a couple of possibilities. “Maybe the seal has weakened enough for the Dragon Sovereign to awaken and contact the Dragon Kings. Or maybe another powerful existence who knew of the Deep Abyss’ location had chosen to inform them about it to achieve some nefarious goals…”

“Anything is possible.”

“Well, the first possibility sounds likelier than the second.” Ye Qing mused. “Anyway, the climax is finally here. I can’t wait to see what kind of trump card the four nations have prepared for this scenario.”

“Oh? You think they anticipated something like this to happen?” Feng Qingyou asked smilingly.

“You think they wouldn’t?” Ye Qing snorted. “If they didn’t, then they would be dumber than little ol’ me.”

Ye Qing was certain that they had. Otherwise, Chu Xunxian and Guo Ximian would be doing everything in their power to stop the array or at the very least, run away. They were doing none of those things, however. They were waiting for the inevitable to happen.

That was why Ye Qing was certain they had prepared a trump card; a trump card meant for the Dragon Sovereign himself.

Suddenly, the bloody vortex began shaking violently. The next moment, the head of an unbelievably huge dragon stretched out of it.

The bloody vortex was almost big enough to encompass from one end of the sky to the other. To say it was big would be an understatement. However, it groaned as if the thing that was trying to fit through the passage was too big.

On a related note, the pillar of sea water was now pouring into its mouth instead of the vortex.

That wasn’t all. The second the people saw the dragon’s head, a draconic roar erupted beside their ears and caused them to bleed from all orifices. Their minds trembled like a leaf in a storm, and they felt like prostrating and swearing their allegiance to the dragon’s head despite their will.

Buzz…

Suddenly, the dragon’s head opened both of its eyes. At that moment, it felt as if a pair of suns had suddenly sprung into existence and dyed the entire world white.

“Ahhhh!!!”

Several thousand Nether End Army soldiers screamed at the top of their lungs. These living legends were so tough that they did not bat an eyelid even when their foes disemboweled them or cut off their limbs, and now they were all screaming as if they were being burned from the inside out.

Their eyes dissolved into ash without a sound, and their bodies writhed like dough being squeezed by an invisible hand. At the same time, their flesh and blood were melting like candles.

Chu Mingfeng, Su Bancheng, Chu Wangsun and Chen Wuji fared much better than the Nether End Army, but even they were bleeding all over.

This was with the protection of the Natural Five Phases Flags too.

Realizing that neither the remnants of the Nether End Army nor the Chu’s geniuses could hold out for long, Chu Xunxian hurriedly wrapped them inside the Natural Five Phases Flags and disappeared into space. However, they reappeared at the exact same location almost as if they hadn’t moved.

“Hahaha… you cannot escape.”

Unlike them, the Eastern Sea Dragon King seemed to be reinvigorated by the light. In fact, he was recovering at a visible rate. “You and your people will all become sacrifices, Chu Xunxian. You will all serve the Dragon Sovereign from within his stomach!”

“Hahahahahahahaha!”

There was no mistake. The gigantic dragon’s head belonged to the Dragon Sovereign.
