158: Great Yan State Master! Disaster for the Southern Kingdom!

The storm in the South Sea started suddenly and ended quickly.

Lu Chuan's current strength is formidable. Even when facing these Lock Realm Beast Kings, the speed at which he resolves battles is still very fast.

Before the human ability user team could even fly deep into the South Sea, Lu Chuan had already finished two battles.

After circling the surface of the South Sea a few times, Zhang Lang found nothing and prepared to return to Yan Country with his team.

Along the way, they met another team of extraordinary individuals.

"You are... Miss Ji?"

Zhang Lang looked at the tall girl with exceptionally outstanding looks and said with some hesitation.

The other team investigating the anomaly in the sea area that he encountered at this time was precisely the exploration team led by Ji Ruxue.

The reason Ji Ruxue specifically came to the South Sea was that Yan Country had invited an old Celestial Master from Longhu Mountain.

This old Celestial Master observed the stars at night and used divination to calculate that a disaster would occur in the Baiyue region of Yan Country in the near future.

Furthermore, this disaster was different from previous beast invasions. If not handled properly, it would bring an unprecedented catastrophe.

Ji Zhentian dared not be careless about this matter. He immediately dispatched Ji Ruxue with her team to rush from the capital all the way to the South Sea, hoping to find the source of the disaster occurring there.

"You must be Captain Zhang Lang? May I ask if you found anything peculiar during your trip to the depths of the South Sea?"

Ji Ruxue had already heard about the events happening in the South Sea when she was on land.

The vast South Sea suddenly stirred up hundred-meter-high waves impacting the city walls, which was very close to the situation the Imperial Advisor had described.

"Miss Ji, we suspect that the tsunami previously triggered in the South Sea region might have been caused by the Mermaid race..."

Zhang Lang and his group investigated deep in the South Sea, only sensing extremely terrifying aura and battle fluctuations but finding nothing else. Therefore, they could only reply ambiguously at this time.

"The Mermaid race..."

Hearing this, Ji Ruxue also fell silent.

Yan Country had conducted very close investigations on both land beasts and sea beasts as much as possible.

The higher-ups of Yan Country were also aware of the power of the Mermaid race.

It could be said that within the sea area spanning tens of thousands of miles, the Mermaid race was the most powerful, practically having no rivals.

Previously, in the North Sea, the North Sea Dragon King was the strongest ruler, while in the South Sea, it was the Mermaid race.

Especially the mysterious Mermaid Queen, Ji Ruxue heard that she was an elf of the great sea.

As long as she was in this boundless ocean, the Mermaid Queen possessed infinite power, and under the surging waves, no one could be her opponent.

Although this statement sounded somewhat ethereal, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, various strange things were appearing one after another.

Now, the birth of an ocean elf didn't seem so unbelievable...

Looking up at the azure sea before her, Ji Ruxue's beautiful brows were tightly furrowed.

In the early stage of this spiritual energy resurgence, humans were still too weak compared to fierce beasts.

Furthermore, humans are inherently land creatures. If they were to fight in the sea, they would be at an absolute disadvantage against the Mermaid race.

"Given our current situation, it would be extremely difficult to resist the strength of the Mermaid race."

"If it is indeed the Mermaid Queen who wants to lead the Mermaid race to attack our Yan Country, perhaps only requesting the help of the Black Tortoise Guardian God would suffice..."

"However, for the specific situation, we still need to dive deep into the South Sea and strive to investigate thoroughly."

As it concerned the safety of Yan Country, Ji Ruxue dared not be careless in the slightest and led her team to continue diving into the deep sea.

...

"Brother, this vast ocean is boundless. Trying to find a Six-Eared Macaque in this endless expanse is simply harder than ascending to heaven."

Ren Qingyao watched Lu Chuan search aimlessly on the sea surface and couldn't help but advise.

"What's more, this Six-Eared Macaque has the talent for transformation. If it turned into a sea fish, we wouldn't find it even if we searched until next year."

"Let's go back to the Qinling Mountains first, and then come back to find him if we get any news."

Hearing this, Lu Chuan scanned the surrounding sea area again. Although he was somewhat angry about the Six-Eared Macaque impersonating him, as his sister said, finding a demonic beast in this boundless sea was extraordinarily difficult.

Lu Chuan and Ren Qingyao returned to the Qinling Mountains and then began a new round of deployment.

Lu Chuan was no longer the lone Snow Wolf King he was at the beginning. He now had a large number of fierce beast powerhouses under him.

As time went by, Tam and Nine-Tails, whom Lu Chuan had subdued initially, had now broken through to Lock Realm First Layer.

Other great generals, such as Xiong Da and Little Eagle, had also cultivated to the Peak of the Awakening Realm.

And they had all touched the edge of the Lock Realm, and it wouldn't be long before they could break through again.

Now, the Qinling Mountains, stretching for tens of thousands of miles to the east and west, were all encompassed within Lu Chuan's territory.

Lu Chuan stood on the mountain Peak and looked towards the west.

The Qinling Mountains were now within his sphere of influence, the northeast mountains were also part of his territory, and the area south of the mountains was also expanding step by step.

Next, Lu Chuan prepared to advance into the Kunlun Mountain range.

Back then, the Heaven-Pacifying Demonic King led the Myriad Demon Kingdom to attack the Qinling Mountains. As the saying goes, it is impolite not to reciprocate.

Although the overall strength of the beast hordes in the Kunlun Mountain range was still stronger than that of the Qinling Mountains.

Of course, this was mainly because of Lu Chuan. His sudden emergence had dealt with the original Beast King level existences...

If the Black Tortoise and the Vampire Bat King were still in the Qinling Mountains, with the Black Tortoise casting the Dharma Idol Heaven and Earth and the Vampire Bat's multiple techniques, the Qinling Mountains would not be inferior even when compared to the Kunlun Mountain range.

Nevertheless, Lu Chuan was very confident now. Although the overall strength of the beast hordes was not as good as that of the Kunlun Mountain range, he alone was enough to suppress all the heroes.

Now that the Heaven-Pacifying Demonic King had been defeated and dared not show his face, the Myriad Demon Kingdom he had formed had lost a large number of fierce beasts in the battle of the Qinling Mountains.

The remaining fierce beasts also scattered like monkeys from a fallen tree as the Heaven-Pacifying Demonic King fled in defeat.

The Lock Realm Third Layer Prisoner Ox had been killed by him, and the Fox Demon had lost her Nine-Stringed Zither and severed her tail, her whereabouts unknown.

Lu Chuan wanted to force out the Six-Eared Macaque, the Fox Demon, and the Heaven-Pacifying Demonic King by launching a war.

These fierce beasts had formed a mortal enmity with him. In the future, if they grew stronger, they would definitely seek trouble with him. Killing them early would allow him to rest easy.

Furthermore, it didn't matter whether they came out or not when he attacked the Kunlun Mountain range.

If these great demons participated in the battle, he could just take action and eliminate them.

If they didn't come, the remaining fierce beasts in the Kunlun Mountain range alone would not be enough to resist his fierce beast army.
