71: Chapter 71 Bloodbath at the Dragon King's Palace, Rivers of Blood Flow in the South China Sea

The South Sea is the only sea area within the Bright Moon Immortal Dynasty, spanning 30 billion li, vast and boundless, with no end in sight.

This sea area was once vibrant and full of life, inhabited by a large number of sea clans.

All of this was thanks to an Immortal King power that existed at the time—the Sea God Temple.

The master of the Sea God Temple was named Immortal King Lanqin; she possessed not only peerless beauty but also powerful strength.

Under her rule, the sea area was prosperous, and Immortals came in an endless stream, like sparkling stars.

However, after Immortal King Zhenjiao and the Heavenly Centipede Immortal King destroyed the Sea God Temple, the remnants of the Sea God Temple gradually declined over time, eventually disappearing into the long river of history.

The current South Sea has become a world where pirates run rampant and living beings are sharply reduced.

Although there are still many Immortals above the Profound Immortal Realm active here, the number of Immortals below the Profound Immortal Realm is relatively small.

Furthermore, although Cultivators have a numerical advantage, overall, it is still inferior compared to other places.

Above this vast blue ocean, a man and a woman walked hand in hand in the air.

They breathed in the fresh air to their hearts' content, feeling the breath of the ocean.

"Brother Cao, I feel an unparalleled sense of closeness here. I have never left Black City before; I did not expect there to be a place in this world so suitable for my own Cultivation. I feel that when I Cultivate here, my Cultivation speed is twice as fast as before!" Xu Xinyue said excitedly.

"Mm, Xinyue, you are of the sea clan, so naturally, you have a special connection to the ocean. The environment here is indeed very suitable for your Cultivation." Cao Yang looked at her dotingly and answered with a smile.

Cao Yang and Xu Xinyue had been walking on the sea for three days.

Cao Yang could have arrived at the Dragon King Palace in one step, having already known the location of Immortal King Zhenjiao's lair through soul searching, but Xu Xinyue wanted to go slowly and see more of the situation in the South Sea.

During these three days, the two had already wiped out several batches of pirates of various races, all above the True Immortal Realm.

Cao Yang could tell at a glance that they were not good people, so he wiped them out directly, turning them into ashes.

"Xinyue, we will be at the lair of Immortal King Zhenjiao very soon," Cao Yang reminded her.

"Mm, Brother Cao, in a moment, I want to kill more Dragons to avenge my mother," a look of hatred appeared on Xu Xinyue's face.

"Alright."

At this moment, the Dragon King Palace did not know that disaster was imminent; they were still immersed in a festive atmosphere, holding a grand banquet, and were extremely lively.

"Vice Palace Master, the woman we snatched from the territory of the Western Immortal King this time is truly Peerless Grade! When the Palace Master returns, he will definitely be very happy. Maybe he will reward you, Vice Palace Master, with a few Dragon King Pills!" A humanoid Dragon with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks said flatteringly to the burly man in green.

"Hahaha, that is only natural! Before the Palace Master left this time, he specifically instructed that there would be a great happy event when he returns, so of course, I must prepare the best gift for him!" The burly man in green with two horns on his head laughed triumphantly, feeling very satisfied with everyone's flattery.

"Come, brothers, let us drink and be merry! This time, thanks to everyone working together, when the Palace Master returns, I will definitely strive for more rewards for everyone..." The burly man in green raised his wine cup, about to drink with everyone.

However, before he could finish his sentence, the surrounding space suddenly froze, as if time had stopped flowing.

Everyone stood still like sculptures, and the originally noisy Dragon King Palace instantly became deathly silent.

At the same time, snowflakes drifted down from the sky, and those with low cultivation bases were directly frozen into ice cubes.

High above the Dragon King Palace, Cao Yang glanced at the Dragon King Palace below, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

He spoke, "It is clearly a bandit den, yet it has the nerve to call itself a Dragon King Palace. It is truly an insult to Dragons."

He turned his head and said gently to Xu Xinyue beside him, "Xinyue, go. This sword is sharper to use," and handed the sword "Red" in his hand to Xu Xinyue.

Xu Xinyue nodded, took the sword from Cao Yang's hand, and killed her way down to the Dragon King Palace.

Cao Yang sat upright above the Dragon King Palace and slowly released his Immortal sense, covering the entire South Sea.

Those who were deeply sinful and full of evil, no matter how deeply they hid, could not escape Cao Yang's Dharma Eye.

These people exuded a strong resentment, making them very easy to identify.

Furthermore, those forces and powerhouses with close ties to the Dragon Palace were also carefully identified and eradicated by Cao Yang one by one.

Relying on Cao Yang's powerful Realm at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Emperor, dealing with these ant-like existences only required a light sweep to easily wipe them out, even for those Golden Immortals who possessed a true spirit, it was no exception.

Three days passed, and Cao Yang finally opened his eyes; he had successfully dealt with all the evil people outside the Dragon King Palace.

During these three days, the number of living beings Cao Yang wiped out was in the hundreds of millions.

A full ten billion living beings lost their lives unknowingly, but every single one of them was a person full of evil!

During this elimination of evil, many people who practiced evil Cultivation Techniques were innocently implicated.

If they knew they were suffering because of Immortal King Zhenjiao, they would definitely hate him to the bone, and that resentment would be enough to ensure Immortal King Zhenjiao could never turn over a new leaf!

Cao Yang frowned; after cleaning up the trash in the South Sea, his Karma did not increase but decreased.

It had actually dropped by a full 1 strand of Karma.

It seems that mass slaughtering living beings, whether good or evil, has no benefit to the Heavenly Dao.

Cao Yang looked down at the Dragon King Palace and saw that Xu Xinyue was still in a frenzy of slaughter.

With the blessing of the sword "Red", Xu Xinyue slashed at the Half-step Immortal Kings as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

At this moment, everyone was unable to move, and she was like a fierce tiger entering a flock of sheep, each attack easily taking an enemy's life.

Even so, Xu Xinyue was covered in blood, and these bloodstains were all the blood of her enemies!

At this moment, Xu Xinyue's eyes were bloodshot, and a faint blood-colored light emanated from her pupils.

She seemed to become braver the more she killed, her power flowing endlessly.

Cao Yang watched this scene, a trace of heartache surging in his heart, but he did not intervene to help.

Instead, he chose to eliminate the true spirits of those above the Golden Immortal Realm.

Because he knew deeply that only by allowing Xu Xinyue's hatred to be vented could it be beneficial to her future Cultivation.

After another three days, Xu Xinyue finally killed all the Dragons in the Dragon King Palace.

Cao Yang flew down, gently waved his sleeve to wipe the blood off Xu Xinyue, and then pulled her tightly into his arms.

At this moment, Xu Xinyue burst into tears in Cao Yang's arms, her tears soaking his lapels.

Cao Yang gently stroked Xu Xinyue's back, comforting her tenderly, hoping to alleviate the pain and sorrow in her heart.

After a long while, the two left the Dragon King Palace and released the countless women who had been imprisoned in the dungeon.
