Chapter 191: The Loneliness of Being Invincible
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
w.a.n.g Hu blinked and frowned, “Then, what about Big Treasure and Little Treasure?”
After he said that, Di Baijun’s battle spirit faltered, and she looked angrily at w.a.n.g Hu.
w.a.n.g Hu looked back at her innocently. He didn’t have a solution either since they gave birth to the two little fellows.
He didn’t have a solution no matter how unwilling she was.
Di Baijun pouted and said unhappily, “Then, bring more Divine Body Realms with you.”
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Hu nodded and said confidently, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
After comforting Silly Girl for a few minutes, w.a.n.g Hu set off.
He, together with the 100-odd Divine Body Realms from the Lichi World, flew towards the east of Ji.
He was not in a hurry to fly over by himself first.
Their opponent this time was indeed extraordinary. He may be confident, but he wouldn’t risk himself for Ji either.
He needed to preserve his combat power at his peak.
To put it bluntly, Ji was just a country that he could make use of.
He did not intend for it to become very strong, just good enough to be useful to him.
As long as their technology, equipment, and the likes were not destroyed, to be blunt; he did not care about how many people died.
It might even be more convenient if there were fewer people.
After a few hours, w.a.n.g Hu and the team of Divine Body Realms finally arrived at the location where Ji’s eastern coastline was supposed to be.
By now, the waters have already submerged one-fifth of Ji and killed an innumerable amount of people.
w.a.n.g Hu stood in the middle of the sky, and behind him were the 100-odd Divine Body Realms from the Lichi World.
Their eyes looked at the dark clouds and lightning that covered the skies 600 kilometers around.
Below the clouds were golden divine dragons that encircled back and forth, letting out growls.
A terrifying power was being acc.u.mulated underwater, and it was turning stronger and stronger.
Everyone present could sense that it was this power that had been manipulating the waters into propelling forward and submerging the land.
Even w.a.n.g Hu’s expression turned grave.
This power was indeed formidable.
It seemed to just be manipulating the waters to move, but it was not known if they could also use it to fight.
“Your Majesty, this is the Overturn Oceans Formation. As the frequency of it being activated is increased, it becomes more powerful.
“And it does not exhaust much physical stamina because they can take turns to rest and recover. It does not require all the marine species troops to circulate their power at the same time.”
Hei Fan, who had recovered most of his injuries, also came along. He stood behind w.a.n.g Hu and explained.
“Can this Overturn Oceans Formation be used in battles?” w.a.n.g Hu said calmly.
“I think so, but I don’t have much knowledge of it. I’m not very sure about the details,” Hei Fan shook his head and said.
w.a.n.g Hu did not continue to ask. Coupled with his powerful dominance and authority was steadiness, confidence, and fort.i.tude; which had the ability to make everyone feel rea.s.sured.
“I will be fighting head-on. All of you shall stand by and get ready to fight anytime.”
“Yes.”
All of them immediately said and waited intently.
w.a.n.g Hu’s eyes narrowed, and cold murderous intent flashed across his eyes.
He took a step forward and disappeared in a golden flash.
When he reappeared again, he was in the center of the faint projection of the circling golden dragons.
The air of superiority from his body became increasingly intense, dominant, and heavy. It weighed down on the ocean beneath him like a mountain.
At this point, Jin Qiong and the other dragons naturally took notice of this uninvited guest, and their eyes stared at w.a.n.g Hu through the waters.
Hei Fan and the other Divine Body Realms stared even more intently at the scene. Despite having different thoughts, all of them still moved closer to w.a.n.g Hu.
The 11 alliances and the senior officials of Ji also looked at the events without blinking.
Suddenly, a dragon growl sounded, and the turbulent ocean and skies became quiet in comparison.
All the eyes under the heaven were fixed on that being.
“Who are you?”
Jin Qiong’s arrogant voice sounded from under the water.
w.a.n.g Hu’s expression was cold. He said frostily, “Go back to your own world, and I shall let you live.”
Growl!
Immediately, the growling of the dragons intensified, and fury was clearly audible.
The waves that followed became even more tempestuous which seemed to also be expressing its rage.
“Impertinent!”
Jin Qiong’s arrogant voice was filled with disdain, “You are courting death.”
w.a.n.g Hu’s expression remained unchanged. However, the frostiness in his eyes grew more intense.
“Just a bunch of worms who wish to die. I shall fulfill your wishes in that case.”
w.a.n.g Hu said dismissively, and the air of superiority on his body erupted like an active volcano and blasted into the sky.
In the middle of the boundless ocean and beneath the layer of dark clouds and lightning that covered the sky, the lone figure that should have appeared small seemed increasingly imposing instead.
Even the air seemed to falter, and the turbulent seas quieted down.
Roar!
In the next moment, a tiger roar sent tremors into the sky.
The growling of the dragons was drowned out by the roar, and the projection of the golden dragons dimmed. The dark clouds and lightning in the sky shook, causing the clouds to dissipate.
Above the ocean surface, all that was left was the roar of a tiger.
Beneath the ocean, the running formation ceased for a few moments.
Immediately after, a dazzling golden light flared and turned into a golden beam that appeared like a long saber thrown into the ocean.
The waters moved in separate directions from the point where the golden saber hit, appearing as though the ocean was split into two parts. Ten meters, hundred meters, few hundred meters…
In the next instant, a huge water dragon dashed out from the bottomless ocean towards the golden beam.
Boom!
Growl!
The blasts and the dragon growls sounded at once. The collision of the two powers under the waters caused a huge explosion in the ocean.
A several-hundred-meter-tall wave surged into the sky and formed a wall of water that seemed to be flowing up to the sky, opposing the law of gravity.
“Who on earth are you?!”
Deep in the ocean, Jin Qiong’s face appeared grave, and he bellowed furiously.
This power was formidable.
It was so powerful that it seemed to have exceeded the spiritual energy density limit of this world.
He originally thought that there wouldn’t be any powerful beings in this world, but the sudden appearance of this being made him wary.
w.a.n.g Hu was not interested in speaking much. After a probing attack, he had a rough idea about the formation. The Overturn Oceans Formation could indeed be used as an attacking formation.
The exact prowess was not known yet, and more probing needed to be done.
The dazzling golden light appeared in the sky like a sunrise, and the first stage of White Tiger Battle Art and the third stage of Extreme Strength Strike of Dao were activated to the maximum.
The air was filled with an incredibly sharp and piercing sensation, and an outburst of golden blades instantly darted at the Dragon Clan troops who were more than a thousand meters below the ocean.
The ocean was forced apart again, and the blades traveled at a high speed, reaching more than a few hundred meters below the ocean in the blink of an eye.
It was immediately followed by water dragons emerging one after another from the ocean, which collided with the golden air of blades.
Bang!
The earth-shattering blasts shook the entire ocean, and more water was displaced as though the ocean had been overturned.
Under the water, the two different opposing powers violently canceled each other out until it disappeared.
w.a.n.g Hu’s brows creased subtly.
“Courting death!”
Jin Qiong’s murderous yell was heard. After being attacked twice, he could certainly not hold it back anymore.
Growl!
Incessant dragon growls sounded from under the waters. The already turbulent waters seemed to have come alive.
One after another, hundred-meter-long water dragons appeared. They growled and stared menacingly at w.a.n.g Hu.
One dragon, five dragons, ten dragons…
In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred dragons emerged. The combined prowess of the dragons seemed to be working together with the dark clouds and lightning in the sky, and a suffocating pressure compressed towards w.a.n.g Hu.
“You wish to die? Then, I’ll let you have a taste of our Dragon Clan’s Overturn Oceans Formation.”
The furious voice sounded again. At the signal of this voice, the hundred water dragons growled furiously, sending tremors into the sky. They moved at once, das.h.i.+ng towards w.a.n.g Hu with vast power.
w.a.n.g Hu remained expressionless, appearing to think nothing of these water dragons.
He extended his palm at the first water dragon that appeared before him.
Boom!
The two figures—one much smaller than the other—collided together, but the figure that retreated was the ferocious water dragon.
Water splashed out from the huge water dragon, causing more than half of its body to collapse.
However, w.a.n.g Hu was shocked instead of feeling satisfied.
He was surprised that the power of one water dragon alone reached the Sixth Floor.
Furthermore, the body of the water dragon was restored in the blink of an eye.
He was able to tell many things from this strike alone.
The Extreme Agility Movement of Dao was activated, and his figure turned into a glow, weaving in and out of the hundred dragons with incredible speed. He chose not to fight head-on.
These water dragons were inanimate. As long as the formation continued to run, no matter how many water dragons he killed, they would be restored in no time.
He certainly would not fight with these water dragons. If this dragged longer, he didn’t think that he would be able to win.
However, he wanted to test out his hypothesis, so he tried attacking two more times, and the results matched his hypothesis.
Therefore, he decided not to attack anymore, and he circled in and out of the hundred dragons with his Extreme Agility Movement of Dao.
No matter how ferocious the hundred dragons were growling, they could not lay a hand on w.a.n.g Hu.
Hei Fan and the other approaching Divine Body Realms stopped in their tracks and gawked at the scene.
They sensed the blood-curdling aura of the hundred dragons, making them feel terrified and helpless; they decided to change their minds.
Even Hei Fan was feeling disappointed.
The Overturn Oceans Formation was very powerful, and the hundred water dragons were formidable.
However, it was still incapable of doing anything to the Tiger King.
That’s right, it was incapable. He and the Divine Body Realms could see it clearly from the sidelines.
It appeared as if the Tiger King could only jump back and forth to dodge, but that was after he figured out the nature of the water dragons after a few probes, and he did that to not waste his energy.
The water dragons looked menacing, but the golden glow was too composed.
On the surface, it looked like the golden glow was in a perilous situation, but if one observed closely, they would discover that the golden glow was incredibly composed, almost like he was on a stroll.
They did not know whether the Tiger King could break the Overturn Oceans Formation, but they were already certain that the formation could not do anything to him.
The Tiger King could retreat anytime; hence, they could only change their minds.
Meanwhile…
The expressions of the human alliances’ senior officials appeared grave.
“The Dragon Clan is indeed unimaginably strong. Even the Tiger King could not do anything now.
“We must figure out a way to deal with them,” Te Bajing said solemnly. Many people in the conference room nodded in agreement.
“d.a.m.n it! Why are they so strong?! Sacrificing South Korea was right, but the Tiger King is not too smart. They should have waited for the marine species troops to be exhausted before fighting them,” a j.a.panese senior official exclaimed and sighed.
In the capital of China…
“This is the first time we don’t see the Tiger King suppressing his opponent with speed as fast as lightning,” Li Aimin exclaimed solemnly, feeling not used to it.
“If even the Tiger King could not do anything to the opponent, what should we do next?” Zhang Jianye said after being silent for a moment.
“Let’s wait and see. The Tiger King won’t be so easily defeated,” Chen Jianguo shook his head and said.
“But, even if the Tiger King wins, if he doesn’t deal them a heavy blow; the opponent won’t let it go easily.
“Perhaps, the next time, they won’t start by attacking South Ko—Ji first. What if they…?”
One of the elders said. Although he did not complete his sentence, everyone knew what he meant.
The room was silent for a moment, and Dong Pingtao’s steady voice was heard. “Let’s wait and see first. Our priority now is to identify the weak spot of this formation, help the Tiger King to break the formation, and deal the opponent a heavy blow.”
The elders nodded and instructed the relevant departments to hurry.
In the Tiger King’s Cave…
Di Baijun was also looking at the battle on the screen.
The benefits of subduing Ji could be seen preliminarily as the surveillance video was provided by Ji.
Although the other alliances would also share it with her without hesitation if she asked.
However, it would not be as comfortable as using one’s own.
Moreover, neither w.a.n.g Hu nor Di Baijun would request it.
As she watched, her expression turned more solemn.
The power of these creepy crawlies was much stronger than what the human alliances had detected.
Based on the limits of the world pa.s.sage and a rough estimation of the troops, the numbers and quality of the opponent’s Divine Body Realms would probably be about 200 Divine Body Realms who were at least at the Third Floor.
Additionally, they were hidden in the ocean and had a formation. The rascal might really be facing a tough opponent this time.
As she thought, she felt worried, and her brows furrowed together.
She shouldn’t be worried. Based on w.a.n.g Hu’s speed, even if he couldn’t break the formation, it would not be difficult for him to retreat safely.
However, she was worried that the rascal would become stubborn and insist on killing the opponents.
The rascal behaved recklessly in front of her, but there was nothing she didn’t already know about his pride after living with him.
He was immensely proud.
She still remembered when he said he was invincible in this world. The rascal’s pride was huge.
She wouldn’t want to see him in a deadly fight.
On the battlefield…
w.a.n.g Hu was not in the mind to think about anything else. He was walking in and out of the attacks of these hundred dragons.
Gradually, all of his thoughts dissipated, and his long-forgotten battle spirit surged within him.
How long has it been?
How long has it been since he met a worthy rival?
Many people probably wouldn’t believe it if they heard this and would think that he was pretending to show off.
However, he was really feeling excited now.
The feeling of being invincible in the world without a worthy rival was incredibly lonely and unimaginable for a normal person.
‘If one possessed a bloodthirsty knife, the intent to kill will naturally rise within one.’
The feeling he felt was not the same as this saying, but it was a little similar.
The moment a person possessed power, they wouldn’t want to not use it.
When he wasn’t invincible, he worked his *ss off to cultivate and aimed to be invincible.
Yet, after being invincible for a long time, he craved for a worthy rival and a battle where he could thoroughly fight and move with all his might.
One could say he was shameless or pretentious, but it was his genuine thought.
He had been waiting for a fight where he could go all-out for a long time.
Before coming, he was already feeling expectant. This was also one of the reasons why he agreed to the conditions laid by the other countries and agreed to accept Ji.
He just wanted to thoroughly enjoy a fight.
True enough, it did not disappoint.
This opponent was powerful.
