Chapter 511: Chapter 410: Heavenly Level Killing Formation (Climax, request for monthly votes and subscriptions)_1
Upstream of the Jinsha River, countless water demons were moving through the rapid river water.
Their demon bodies were big and small, some were fish-like, some had alligator bodies, some had turtle shapes, some had snake-like forms, along with various shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Without exception, they all looked ferocious, with bone spines and scales covering their bodies.
Their locations in the water were unpredictable, the vast number of them almost packed the entire river channel.
Sailing in the middle of the river was a gigantic bone ship, about forty feet wide and seventy feet long. Even though it was moving upstream in the turbulent Jinsha river, it sailed as if on the flat ground, like a bone palace floating on water.
At this time, Master Fubo and Master Pingbo were both pierced through their bodies by dozens of chains and tremblingly arrived on this bone ship.
The demon bodies of the two of them, one a Golden abalone, the other a Dragon alligator, had been punished to do hard labor in the Tongtian River for the offence of attacking Li Xuan before.
However, just the day before, the defensive line of the East Sea Dragon Clan in the Tongtian River was broken through. Not only was the Dragon King of the Tongtian River killed, tens of thousands of the Dragon Clan’s navy were killed and wounded, and they were both captured alive by the Demon Army of the Tongtian River, reduced to their current plight.
Just a moment later, they were both brought into a hall at the center of the bone ship.
Many demons surrounded the hall, guarding a throne made of white bones.
On the throne sat a man of unusually burly stature, with a very heroic bearing.
Master Fubo looked up and saw the man in black robes and a golden crown, with a somewhat smiling face. What was most impressive were his pair of triangular eyes and bulging cheeks.
Yet this did not detract from the man’s aura. The man looked down proudly, as if he could swallow the whole world.
Master Fubo found the man was looking at him, and he immediately lowered his head, prostrated on the ground.
He knew this was Chang Ze, lord of the upstream of the Tongtian River, and successor of Bashe.
Bashe was a kind of divine beast. As recorded in ’The Classic of Mountains and Rivers’, "There is a country in the southwestern part called Ba. There is a Black Snake with a green head that feeds on elephants."
The legend says that this giant snake was a thousand feet long and had a multicolored combination of green, yellow, red, and black.
In ancient times, Bashe originally lived in the vicinity of Dongting Lake. Because it often caused disasters and consumed human beings as food, Emperor Huang sent Dayi to slay it.
Dayi first shot Bashe with an arrow, then chased it to the distant west and cut it into two. Afterwards, Bashe’s corpse turned into a mound, now known as Baling (Yueyang).
However, although Bashe was dead, its descendants fled along the river and went all the way to the upstream of the Yangtze River.
During the Han and Tang Dynasties, the downstream of Tongtian River and JinSha River were all occupied by the descendants of Bashe. At that time, several rivers around here were called poisoned waters, and boats couldn’t pass through.
"So, you two are Fubo and Pingbo? Your cultivation is just average, but your names sound quite domineering." Chang Ze glanced at them and withdrew his gaze. His voice was hoarse, with a unique hissing sound of the snake species. "I ask you, are you willing to serve me?"
Upon hearing this, Fubo and Pingbo fell silent, prostrating on the ground motionlessly.
Their descendants are distributed on both banks of the Yangtze River and in the lakes and seas, how could they dare to betray East Sea Dragon Clan who controls the water system of the world?
After a moment, Chang Ze scoffed, "Well, I won’t make things difficult for you. Since we are not meant to be master and servant, I won’t insist. But surely you can tell me the situation along the Yangtze River?
How are the dragon kings distributed in each place, how many troops they have? And The Court’s navy, how many troops in total, who are the generals, how’s the military preparation, you should know these, right?"
At this time, dozens of large demons in the hall, dozens of cold and sharp gazes were staring at the two people kneeling in the hall, making Fubo and Pingbo feel a shiver down their spines.
"According to the usual rules, I would normally feed captives like you directly to my sons. But now I am willing to give you a ray of hope, and you should at least say something, give me a reason."
With that, Chang Ze gave a cold laugh, "I heard that you two offended the second son of Earl Chengyi, Li Xuan, and that’s why you were punished to do hard labor at the Tongtian River. And your family’s children and nephews were all killed or wounded because of Li Xuan. Don’t you have the thought of taking revenge—"
When he got to this point, Fubo wasn’t so reactive, but Pingbo, expression vivid with red eyes, started to show his alligator form.
Chang Ze’s eyes revealed a hint of mockery, and just as he was about to continue persuading, another figure flew into the hall.
"Your Majesty!"
It was a creature at the eleventh house level called the ’Thunder-winged Fish Eagle’ named Dan Yuan. Its species normally feed on fish and shrimp and are active on both sides of the river, and it also counts as one of the demon species of the Tongtian River.
This particular Dan Yuan was subdued by Chang Ze 370 years ago and has always been a loyal servant under Chang Ze’s command.
Now, this Dan Yuan transformed into a scholar, fluttering in his black outfit, appearing versatile and unworldly: "Your Majesty, Master Jiudeng sent a flying token, asking your majesty to speed up the march east. He has already helped you open up the waterway near the Min River, your demon army just needs to rush there, and you will be able to retake Jinsha, Min River, Jialing water system, rebuild Jinsha Royal Court, and restore the hegemony of your ancestors."
Upon hearing this, Chang Ze showed no change in expression: "It sounds like he’s in a hurry."
"Yes, he’s very anxious." Dan Yuan nodded slightly: "He said that The Court and East Sea Dragon Clan have been alerted. The Emperor has gathered numerous heavenly positions and a large army preparing to start the crusade. They only rely on the power of Xiangyue sealed in the Min River, and they may not be able to resist it, so they ask your majesty to march east quickly.
"I don’t know if what he said is true or not. But when I flew to a height of 10,000 feet earlier, I saw with my divine skills that there is no dragon clan’s navy from here to the region around Min River. Your highness only need to advance eastward, if you defend the strategic point near Chongqing (Chongqing) and Wujing river area, you can indeed re-establish the Demon Courtyard and dominate Tiannan."
At this point, the excitement was evident in his voice, "If we further move downstream, and allow the great water to wash both banks of Yangtze River. Then, out of all the brothers here, there should be three or five reaching the heavenly level. At that time, even Jinque Palace would not dare to look down on us."
Following his words, all the big demons in the hall were breathing heavily, their pupils blood-red. They looked at each other, then fell to their knees in unison: "We are willing to die for the king and sweep the Yangtze River."
"Your Majesty! This opportunity cannot be missed. We implore Your Majesty to proceed eastward quickly and establish the dominance of the Demon Nation!"
Upon hearing this, Changze burst into laughter: "Then what are we waiting for? Order the armies to speed up."
Master Pingbo, who was still kneeling on the ground, had a subtle expression on his face, a hesitant look in his eyes.
His current cultivation level has also reached the tenth house level. If he could join, and by utilizing the momentum of the water, consume a thousand or two blood meals, he could also have the chance to reach the half-heavenly level.
Just at this moment, Master Pingbo suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold rapidly spreading from all directions.
This cold came incredibly fast, even in an instant freezing the river water here, and in a flash, all the monster species outside pulling the hundred-bone ship were directly frozen into the ice layer.
"Who is it?"
Chang Ze suddenly stood up, he looked around, a stern look in his pupils: "Who dares to be so bold? On this Jinsha River, who dares to offend my royal carriage?"
"Jiang Yunqi from Jinling pays his respects to Your Majesty the Demon King!"
As the voice rang out, a pair of silver-white double halberds fell from the sky, plunged into the ice surface to the left of the hundred-bone ship, their great force tearing the upper half of the ship to shreds.
A figure in a white scholar’s robe, elegant and gentlemanly, floated down to those double halberds right after.
At the same time, a silver-white lance plunged into the ice surface on the right. Accompanied by the lance was a sturdy-bodied, aggressive man in a white robe of a scholar: "Apologies from Helian Fulong of Tongzhou!"
Almost simultaneously, a black-and-white Yin-Yang Fish Diagram appeared at the front of the large ship. Inside the Yin-Yang Fish Diagram stood a beautiful young woman in red palace dress, her face cold, and her murderous intent intense: "Princess Yu Hongchang of Jin Dynasty!"
Li Chengji was the last to appear, descending from the air on his blade to land behind the hundred-bone ship: "Earl Chengyi Li Chengji!"
He had a complicit smile on his face, but he was merciless below. The vast ice power radiated quickly from under his feet, covering over 70 miles of the river’s surface with ice in just an instant!
With the combined effort of the Four Heavenly Level persons, all 30,000 demon soldiers in this section of the river are frozen into the ice layer within moments.
Even the monster species on the large bone ship became frosted in this instant.
At this point, upstream 70 miles, a giant stone dam suddenly rose from the water surface. It kept rising, increasing in thickness, completely blocking the gap between the two banks and the mountains. Above the dam was Jade Qilin, and Yue Qianqian, who had undergone a drastic change in her persona, seemed as noble and dignified as Houtu.
This huge dam not only obstructed the entire Jinsha River but also trapped the 120,000 demon armies upstream behind the dam.
At this time, the figure of Xue Yunrou was also revealed above the dam. Her fumo sword has turned into two giant red dragons, which in an instant decimated nearly a thousand of the demon species in front of the dam.
Behind her were Li Yan and his wife along with Jiang Hanyun, with each of them guarding Jade Qilin and Yue Qianqian, who were momentarily imperceptive. They all seemed like sturdy walls, bombarding and repelling those big demons that were attacking.
Changze’s face went dark, his eyes were extremely cold.
He felt that the momentum of the ten thousand armies under his command had been completely split, shattered in pieces.
At this moment, only the vanguard of the 60,000 demon armies downstream, which was not yet frozen, still could lend his power. But they were a hundred miles away, and the power from tens of thousands of armies, the billowing smoke of blood and qi Changze could call upon was already few and far between.
However, Chang Ze showed no signs of panic, he snorted softly: "Five Heavenly Levels, that’s a big lineup! But this is Jinsha River, with just you trash, dare you come and offend my grand army?"
He stomped hard, causing the ice layer beneath him to crack a large piece open, the enormous power equivalent to nine dragons and ten elephants made the entire land shake. A huge crack then extende towards the direction of the stone dam 70 miles upstream.
Changze sneered internally, with a look of disdain in his eyes, these four froze the river, froze the water law, but how much energy do they have left to fight with him?
However, right at this moment, two lightning-like figures suddenly arrived.
Changze’s reaction was too late as two large holes were blasted in his chest and abdomen by the violent light and thunder blade qi.
Changze couldn’t help being surprised, he endured the severe pain, looked at those two swiftly passing lightnings with a shocked mind.
