Kind of interesting

“Oh…oh my! What is this thing?!”

Nian Nian shrieked, her tender little hands covering her eyes.

She dove headfirst into the boat canvas piled at her feet.

Bang!

A dull thud sounded from behind.

Tiger Mountain’s thousand-pound broadsword fell to the ground, his eyes vacant, as were those of Liu Shan and Fo Shan, the two brothers beside him.

The three stood rooted, as if their Souls had been snatched away.

But in reality, before that enormity, the three were truly terrified!

The few of them recognized that enormity immediately; it was truly a Dragon King!

A Dragon King, an existence that transcends the Laws of this world!

In ancient times, Dragon Kings crushed everything in the world; only a small number of peerless Human Race powerhouses could contend with them.

For a long period, this vast myriad of worlds was controlled by Dragon Kings.

If it weren’t for a later period, when the Heavenly Dao underwent Reincarnation and Great Emperors emerged,

this world would probably still be ruled by Dragon Kings!

Tiger Mountain and the two others reacted so strongly precisely because Qingfeng Temple possessed countless ancient texts, and these hidden histories had long been a part of their worldview.

Now, seeing the Dragon King, who had oppressed the Human Race for tens of thousands of years, appear,

let alone that they were only in the Sanyin Realm, even if their Realm was more profound, they couldn't control this fear that was deeply ingrained in their Bloodline!

“Is what was written in the books all true? The Dragon King didn’t completely disappear, but rather lurked in a hidden place in the myriad worlds?!”

“Once the Dragon King appears, the Laws of this world will be completely overturned.”

“The Human Race will once again become the Dragon King’s vassals!”

Before Tiger Mountain’s eyes, a sea of blood and a forest of flesh seemed to appear; that was precisely the myriad worlds ruled by the Dragon King!

Tiger Mountain and his two brothers all collapsed onto the ground.

It was as if their Souls had been drained! They had lost all will to fight!

And in the distance, those dark cross-shaped pupils blinked, and a gust of wind swept over!

The previously calm sea surface instantly became turbulent, and as the waves surged, more of the Dragon’s head was revealed.

Bronze-colored scales shimmered with layers of ripples, as if carrying the grandeur of ancient times.

Hiss!

Beneath the enormous Dragon’s eyes, the Dragon’s head, covered in bone-spiked scales, exhaled a thick, turbid Qi from its nose.

It instantly swept over with the waves, almost capsizing the small boat!

Amidst the turbulence, several crew members were already kneeling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly to the Dragon’s head on the sea surface.

“Dragon King, our Lord! We did not intend to offend!”

“We have disturbed you!”

The crew members knelt on the ground, praying, and the old captain, who had previously been calmly seated at the helm, finally poked his head out.

One should know that even when the sea creatures appeared and enchanted everyone earlier, the old captain had remained quite calm.

“Quick! Don’t just stand there foolishly, throw the Profound Qi stones into the cabin, increase the horsepower!”

“Before Dragon King, our Lord, gets completely enraged, turn around, and return to port!”

Meanwhile, Zhong Qing lowered his head and picked up Nian Nian, who had burrowed into the boat canvas, by the waist, holding her securely with one arm.

“This is a dream, right! This is a dream, right!”

Nian Nian shrieked; she hadn’t had time to read those vast ancient texts of Qingfeng Temple, so she wasn’t as nervous as her Master and Junior Martial Uncles.

And Tiger Mountain was completely despondent. At this moment, he discovered that on this boundless sea surface,

apart from this small boat and the few people on it, everything else had fallen into complete stillness.

Under the scattered starlight projected by the bright moon in the sky, it was clearly visible that countless splashes of water were suspended in mid-air.

The entire sea surface had solidified!

“Boss! Can’t row! The boat won’t move!”

Several crew members strenuously threw Profound Qi stones into the lower cabin responsible for propulsion, but when they looked out,

the continuously rotating propeller outside the boat seemed to be stuck in mud.

The clear seawater had become incredibly viscous, and the more horsepower the rotating boat propeller had, the slower it moved.

A moment later, the propeller completely solidified, actually becoming trapped and immobilized by the seawater!

Ou Zishu, who had just been enchanted by the mutated sea snake race, completely woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes and saw the scene in the distance, he was so scared that he almost fainted again.

But compared to Tiger Mountain and his two brothers, Ou Zishu was naturally more unrestrained and didn't really believe the various records and ancient texts in the School.

After a moment to compose himself, he began actively observing the surrounding scene to seek a way to survive.

He had just turned around and looked for a moment when an expletive slipped out.

“Brother, what are you doing?”

Ou Zishu saw Zhong Qing walking to the side of the boat.

Zhong Qing, holding Nian Nian, had a normal expression. He glanced at the Dragon King a few times, then lowered his head and reached out to grab a handful of suspended water droplets.

“Oh, interesting.”

With a flick of his finger, Zhong Qing flicked the water droplets away.

The water droplets fell back onto the sea surface and merged with it.

And Zhong Qing seemed to have found something amusing; he actually flicked back the large splashes of water that had been suspended after the waves surged, one by one.

Like a child playing, in such a surrounding scene, Zhong Qing’s actions were even more bizarre than that enormous Dragon King.

“Nah, no way, this is so much fun?”

Nian Nian, held by Zhong Qing, poked her little head out, her big eyes staring intently at Zhong Qing’s fingers.

The suspended water droplets were flicked out by Zhong Qing one by one, and one drop landed on Nian Nian’s brow.

It brushed off with a whoosh, then was flicked away again.

Nian Nian’s eyes widened even further, then she reached out her small hand and pinched a water droplet.

With a splat, the water droplet burst.

Nian Nian was, after all, only seven or eight years old. In this instant, she had already ignored the current situation, her eyes only seeing these Divine Qi water droplets.

Ou Zishu, over there, watched anxiously, slapping his thigh; can this thing be played with?!

Now, no one could be relied on!

Ou Zishu gritted his teeth, sat up, and in the blink of an eye, rushed to the three dazed figures of Tiger Mountain who were slumped on the ground.

Rolling up his sleeves, smack!

He slapped Tiger Mountain across the face.

Tiger Mountain looked up. At this moment, he was even more dazed than Ou Zishu had been when he was previously affected.

Liu Shan and Fo Shan were even worse.

Especially Fo Shan, who had already opened the daily journal he carried with him, intending to record everything he saw in his last moments.

This was resignation!

Slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap!

Ou Zishu swung his arm in wide arcs, slapping Tiger Mountain’s face repeatedly.

“It’s over… the Dragon King has appeared, everything is over…”

Tiger Mountain blinked, muttering to himself, not even looking at Ou Zishu.

“It’s not time to die yet, no need to give up! What’s written in the books isn’t necessarily true!”

“Perhaps if we break the surrounding seawater restriction, we can leave!”

Ou Zishu gritted his teeth, but Tiger Mountain still lowered his head in despondency.

Ou Zishu knew very well how much these Senior Brothers believed in the records within the Temple.

But now, if they didn't act soon, it would be too late!

This small boat was clearly restricted here by the solidified surroundings, but upon closer inspection, it was clearly a few steps closer to the Dragon King.

If this continued, once the small boat touched the immense Profound Qi around the Dragon King, it would surely be torn apart!

“Think about your Disciple Nian Nian! How old is she?! If Nian Nian can’t go back! How will you explain it to her father when you go down there?!”

“Are you going to take Nian Nian to the Underworld and tell her father that you couldn’t take care of her, so you brought her down for him to take care of personally?!”

At these words, Tiger Mountain finally reacted.

He glanced at little Nian Nian, who was playing with the water droplets, and the fighting spirit finally rekindled in his triangular eyes.
