Chapter 982: 982
The sea demons only reacted once the flying boat escaped . They hastily chased after them .
“You really are courting death, you d.a.m.n b.a.s.t.a.r.d! You’re bullying people too much!” cursed the Six Horn Sea Serpent . It seemed in its fury, it had forgotten it wasn’t human .
At first, it really had been intimidated by Long Chen’s aura . But no matter how strong Long Chen’s bloodline power was, his cultivation base was only at Sea Expansion . Even with the bloodline pressure, it could easily kill Long Chen .
By the time it realized this, Long Chen had fled . The most hateful thing was that right before that, Long Chen had conveniently picked up the two ninth rank corpses that the flying boat had smashed to death .
The Six Horn Sea Serpent’s intelligence was much higher than ordinary sea demons . It knew it had been duped, and with a roar, it led the ninth rank sea demons to chase .
Some of these sea demons flew through the air, their scales releasing some kind of spatial tearing power . Another portion returned to the sea, where their speed was the greatest .
“Boss, you actually even brought those two corpses!” Guo Ran looked at Long Chen with wors.h.i.+p . His boss truly was greedy . Even at this time, he didn’t forget to get more profit .
“Elder Sha, can we increase the speed?” Long Chen ignored Guo Ran and asked Elder Sha .
“The flying boat’s too big, and its acceleration is too slow . It’ll take at least fifteen minutes to reach its top speed . ” Elder Sha shook his head .
This was one of the disadvantages of large flying boats . It wasn’t nimble enough, and it required some time to reach its max speed .
“Heavens, they’ve caught up already!” cried w.a.n.g Mang . In the distance, there was a ma.s.s of huge figures chasing them, and at the front was the terrifying Six Horn Sea Serpent .
Its body swam through the air . Its scales sparkled, and in the blink of an eye, it caught up .
“It’s over for us…” said one of the Eastern Wasteland’s disciples .
They had wanted to go to that legendary world known as the Central Plains . But before seeing that legendary world, they would die within this sea .
“Elder Sha, continue accelerating as fast as possible . I’ll stall them,” said Long Chen .
“You can’t . Your bloodline pressure is effective, but your cultivation base is too low . It’s not enough to force them off, and they won’t fall for it twice . Guo Ran, you come control the boat . I’ll go hold them back . Whether or not you can escape will be up to your luck,” said Elder Sha .
“Elder Sha!”
Everyone let out startled cries . Elder Sha was clearly saying that he would fight the sea demons to stall for them . That way, they would have some hope for surviving, but Elder Sha would definitely die once surrounded by those sea demons .
It was unexpected that this indifferent and cold Elder Sha would actually sacrifice himself for them . Everyone felt a sour feeling .
“These are the rules . Don’t feel bad . Time is pressing, so I-” said Elder Sha .
Long Chen shook his head . “It’s no use . The Six Horn Sea Serpent’s intelligence is comparable to a human’s . Even if you sacrifice yourself, it’ll order a portion of the sea demons to continue chasing us . Guo Ran isn’t familiar with how to use the flying boat, so in the end, not one person will escape like that . ”
“That’s the only option,” said Elder Sha .
“I still have a few tricks . Maybe I can stall for a bit . Elder Sha, transport me out,” said Long Chen .
Elder Sha couldn’t think of anything else . If Long Chen said he still had some tricks, then the best thing to do was to let him try them . But this time, Long Chen appeared at the back of the s.h.i.+p .
At the aft, Long Chen shouted arrogantly at the Six Horn Sea Serpent, “Tch, you foolish fish, you don’t even recognize your ancestor’s bloodline . Do you want to offend your superior?”
Rumor said that the Six Horn Sea Serpent possessed a dragon’s bloodline . Although it was extremely faint, it truly existed .
Amongst all the sea demons, only it was able to just barely contend against Long Chen’s bloodline pressure . But it was unable to suppress the reverence that came from its soul .
“Don’t try to trick me . You sly, despicable humans, you aren’t a true dragon at all! I’ll eat you for sullying the true dragon’s name!” shouted the Six Horn Sea Serpent .
Long Chen cursed inside . The Six Horn Sea Serpent had sensed his true dragon essence blood and wanted to eat him to take it . Then perhaps there really would be a chance for it to transform into a dragon .
If the Six Horn Sea Serpent wasn’t so intelligent, then they would have already managed to escape . But now it was troublesome .
The flying boat was accelerating with each pa.s.sing moment . What they needed most at this time was for Long Chen to stall .
“No, you’re wrong . Haven’t you heard of the true dragon heavenly son? That’s right, I am the true dragon heavenly son . Although… although I’m not wearing dragon robes, can you not sense my temperament, my mannerisms? Do you not sense my aura that is like a dragon looking down on the rest of the world? As the saying goes, you can’t judge people by their looks . The water of the sea… is very cold, very cold…” As Long Chen spouted nonsense, he ended up not knowing what to say at the end .
The Six Horn Sea Serpent was startled at first by Long Chen’s nonsense . But as Long Chen continued to sputter, it ended up not understanding his nonsense . Then it noticed the flying boat was getting faster and faster, and it realized his goal . It opened its mouth, shooting a huge globe of light toward Long Chen .
That was one of its innate divine abilities . If struck, Long Chen wouldn’t even have a corpse .
Suddenly, Long Chen disappeared as he was drawn back inside by Elder Sha . At the same time, Elder Sha pushed the flying boat’s defenses as high as possible .
BANG! The flying boat shook intensely and shot into the distance .
Because of the immense power, the flying boat struck the water and rebounded several times, causing the people inside to vomit blood . Even the Dragonblood warriors weren’t able to bear it and were injured . As for the others, many of them fainted .
“Are you alright?” cried Tang Wan-er . Meng Qi was pale, and blood was dripping out of the corner of her mouth . Although Tang Wan-er was doing her best to protect her, Meng Qi was still injured .
“I’m fine,” comforted Meng Qi .
“f.u.c.k, so it’s a case of giving face but not getting face? Elder Sha, send me out!” Long Chen once more appeared at the back of the boat . Pointing at the Six Horn Sea Serpent, he cursed, “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, I’ll make you pay for that one! Double Dragon Destruction!”
Roaring resounded through the air as flames and lightning condensed . Two dragons three thousand miles long appeared, immediately coiling around each other and forming a dragon twister that struck the Six Horn Sea Serpent .
BOOM! The Six Horn Sea Serpent was sent flying . Lei Long and Huo Long were no longer the old Lei Long and Huo Long .
Lei Long had absorbed an incredible amount of thunderforce from the tribulation, while Huo Long had devoured another Earth Flame . They were both much stronger than before .
The Six Horn Sea Serpent first felt its body go numb as thunderforce invaded inside and then flames wrapped around it . Even as a ninth rank sea demon, its body wasn’t able to bear such terrifying flames . A burned smell filled the air, along with the smell of cooked fish .
“Brother Long, I want to eat it!” Wilde immediately smelled it and became unbearably hungry .
Everyone almost collapsed . What time was it, how could he still want food?
The Six Horn Sea Serpent was knocked back, and although it was a bit injured, it wasn’t anywhere close to a fatal one . Long Chen had Lei Long and Huo Long continue circling at the back of the flying boat to protect them .
The two of them were extremely large, and even the sea demons had to be afraid of their combination attack . With the two of them at the back of the flying boat, the sea demons were forced back further .
“Boss is mighty!” Guo Ran and the others cheered . Even Elder Sha sighed with relief as he hadn’t expected Long Chen to have so many trump cards . The crisis was temporarily held back .
Whether it was lightning or flames, each of them could intimidate the water attribute sea demons . The thunderforce was especially effective against them, as it came from the nine heavens’ tribulation lightning .
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” The Six Horn Sea Serpent roared furiously . Seeing the flying boat’s speed continuously increasing, it finally went berserk . Its body suddenly swelled, and opening its mouth, a huge globe of light shot out .
BOOM! The two dragons shattered in the face of this terrifying attack, causing Long Chen’s expression to change .
However, he also saw that the Six Horn Sea Serpent’s scales clearly dimmed slightly after it . This attack must’ve cost a lot .
“A good chance . ”
The Six Horn Sea Serpent had only just unleashed this powerful attack, and its aura was still at the bottom . At this moment, the back of the flying boat opened and a huge flying sword shot through its head .
Its body was instantly pulled into the flying boat, and Long Chen also returned inside because the flying boat’s speed was now reaching its peak . The other sea demons were no longer able to get any closer .
Furthermore, the flying boat was still accelerating . In other words, they were safe .
“Boss is bada.s.s! Elder Sha is- cough, hail Elder Sha!” Guo Ran cheered . Everyone was excited to have escaped certain death .
Even Elder Sha had a rare smile on his face . The feeling of escaping calamity was truly a good one .
“f.u.c.k! We ended up disturbing a terrifying existence!”
Long Chen was also excited at first . He was just about to tidy up the spoils when his and Elder Sha’s expressions completely changed .
