Chapter 623: Chapter 624 Post-war_1

"You could say that. What’s the matter?"

"Then why conflate the two?"

Hua Yiyou was somewhat puzzled. Feng Yuan laughed and said,

"Because of the Black Sea."

"Aside from the Black Sea, other seas are not safe. Don’t think that the Island Jellyfish can boss around the Aquatic People in the Black Sea with impunity. If they leave the Black Sea, things become uncertain."

"At the very least, the catastrophe level and what is in the Black Sea are not on the same level."

As he spoke, Feng Yuan glanced at Delong Tower approaching and said,

"If it were to stir up a storm in the true Starlit Sea, those Sea Kings and Sea Serpents might not all make it out alive."

"Is it that terrifying?"

Guo Huai was somewhat surprised, but not very shocked. After all, even in modern times, there are no fools bold enough to rush into the Starlit Sea without any safety measures. Most travel between continents relies on high-speed sea lanes, which is why intercontinental communication is not that close.

"Or else what? It’s because of the Black Sea’s existence that, strictly speaking, Divine Land and Omeilia are actually connected. You can think of the Black Sea as a huge lake that divides continents."

"Can this even be considered a lake..."

Looking at the Black Sea, not much smaller than the Divine Land Region, Guo Huai couldn’t help but quip. Feng Yuan gave Guo Huai a glance and said,

"Can’t I make an analogy?!"

Just then, bizarre rays of light swept out from the direction of Nanyu City towards all directions. Looking at the sea turned to jade, Feng Yuan said in surprise,

"The battle’s begun? So soon?"

"That’s normal. If, as you said, Kavieng is Nanyu King’s greatest reliance, then now is the best time to strike."

"Previously, Kavieng had to both keep Nanyu City from sinking and withstand the attacks of those Sea Kings and Sea Serpents. It must have exhausted a lot of energy. Even the Legendary Level beings who are said to have limitless stamina can’t handle such intense fighting, right?"

Hua Yiyou said and looked at Feng Yuan, who nodded in agreement and said,

"Indeed, but we foresaw this, didn’t we?"

"Better skedaddle~"

As Feng Yuan spoke, Kui Shui Xuanwu slowly retreated in the direction away from Nanyu City. At that moment, the emerald Crystal Barrier had shattered and vanished. The strange light kept sweeping around, turning anything it touched into jade. The Agunas apparition flicked its tail and said,

"Doesn’t this seem a bit like Karnas’s ability? That’s not..."

"His masterpiece. That’s why another Kavieng could never appear."

"Turning everything into jade... What a terrifying ability."

"Only it seems to be out of control now."

Gazing at the light sweeping over the sea, Feng Yuan murmured. Guo Huai, puzzled, said,

"If it can turn everything into jade, then why can’t it deal with those people?"

"Because they are too familiar with it. Nothing exists without a weakness. The enemy exploited the weakness; otherwise, it wouldn’t have turned out this way."

Thick smoke began to rise from the direction of Nanyu City, and without guessing, it was clear that a fierce battle was underway. The island of Nanyu City that was previously floating on the sea’s surface became unstable, as if it was about to topple. Watching the island of Nanyu City gradually fall into the water, Mo Ling said with some concern,

"Won’t there be a problem? That island looks like it’s sinking..."

"They plan to use the island to pin down Kavieng. But it’s not so simple."

Feng Yuan watched the island of Nanyu City intently. As the sea level inched closer to the jade top that protected the island, Feng Yuan became worried. He knew the other party must have a plan, but wondered why they hadn’t acted yet. Recalling something, Feng Yuan looked at the White Wolf Deity and said,

"Let’s back off a bit more. White Wolf Deity, go assist them."

Before anyone could react, the White Wolf Deity stepped into the air and sped off in the direction of Nanyu City. Just then, a roar of anger and frustration came from the direction of Nanyu City. Beneath the sea, a bizarre aurora flickered.

Kui Shui Xuanwu made a swift motion and vanished from the original spot. In a blink, everyone found themselves far from Nanyu City. The aurora reached the surface quickly, transforming the sea into jade, or rather, it turned everything in its path into jade. The sinking island of Nanyu City was supported by rapidly-forming giant jade pillars.

"This is..."

"So powerful!"

The crowd exclaimed. Aside from Feng Yuan, no one could anticipate that Kavieng could transform such a vast area of the sea into jade. The Agunas apparition flicked its tail a bit uneasily and said,

"This move must have severe side effects, right?"

"Indeed, after using it, he should lose his ability to fight for a period of time."

Feng Yuan nodded and looked towards Nanyu City. The White Wolf Deity had not been affected by the recent petrification influence and had already disappeared from everyone’s sight. Mo Ling prayed somewhat anxiously for Wei Dingwu and the others.

"What’s that?"

Seeing several giant crystal greatswords appearing in the distant sky, Guo Huai was somewhat surprised; although there were no useful tips given in the system information, the red warning to stay away proved that it was not something simple.

"Sword of Annihilation: Soul, but how could the White Wolf Deity have used this move?"

Feng Yuan was puzzled, as that was a bona fide Divine Beast-level ultimate move, one that those Legendary Level Spirit Beasts couldn’t possibly withstand. Guo Huai said speechlessly,

"Did the White Wolf Deity just go straight for the big move?"

"Not sure... Sword of Annihilation doesn’t differentiate between friend and foe. It doesn’t make sense to use it in any case."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan was somewhat puzzled, while the shadow of Agunas expressed surprise,

"It doesn’t differentiate between friend and foe?"

"Yeah, once that move is thrown, it attacks all targets in range; it can’t be controlled. Usually, it is thrown towards the enemy’s position. Using it against Nanyu City—what’s the situation with that?"

Feng Yuan, perplexed, watched Mo Ling’s complexion change and said anxiously,

"Ding Wu and the others—they won’t be in any trouble, right?"

"Hard to say, the ultimate move hasn’t been activated yet, and we don’t know what the situation is. If it does get activated, it could indeed pose a real danger."

"This is headache-inducing..."

Feng Yuan rubbed his temples as he watched the crystal greatswords in the distant sky. Under the sunlight, the swords glittered with dazzling light. Knowing the power of that move, Feng Yuan understood that if those greatswords were to fall, the Nanyu Kingdom could declare its end.

Fortunately, the event everyone feared did not happen. Although the crystal greatswords left everyone on tenterhooks, they just floated quietly in the air without descending until dusk slowly settled, and suddenly a large ship appeared far away, speeding off. Only then did the crystal greatswords slowly dissipate.

"Seems like it’s over."

Feng Yuan sighed with relief. If the crystal greatswords had really fallen, resolving and correcting the aftermath would not have been so simple.

After a while, the White Wolf Deity stepped through the air and landed steadily on the back of Kui Shui Xuanwu. Seeing this, Feng Yuan said with a slightly relaxed tone,

"It seems the problem isn’t too serious. There shouldn’t have been any mishaps."

"Are they okay?"

Mo Ling asked with some concern. Feng Yuan nodded and replied,

"Since the White Wolf Deity has returned, it means that there are no serious issues over there anymore. Otherwise, it would have stayed to help. Maybe they will return soon."

"Where did Delong Tower go?"

At that moment, Guo Huai noticed that Delong Tower was nowhere to be seen and asked worriedly. Feng Yuan glanced in the direction where the ship had disappeared and replied,

"To take them back to land."

"Why?!"

Mo Ling was somewhat perplexed. Feng Yuan spread his hands and explained,

"That was my request. Otherwise, Delong Tower wouldn’t bother with such matters. I was just worried that if the Maritime People attacked them, something unexpected might happen."

"Are they in danger?"

Both Mo Ling and Guo Huai didn’t understand. The enemies had been chased away, so why say they were still in danger? Feng Yuan glanced at Hua Yiyou and asked,

"Did you think of something?"

"This..."

Hua Yiyou vaguely felt he had grasped something but hadn’t fully understood it yet, while Mo Li seemed to have guessed something and looked surprised in the direction the ship had left.

"So, are we waiting here for your people, or..."

Having rejoined the group, Cheng Cheng rubbed his hands together and asked Feng Yuan and the others somewhat sheepishly. The storm summoned by Delong Tower had yet to completely subside, and the sea breeze made it uncomfortable. Feng Yuan looked in the direction of Nanyu City and said,

"Let’s head to Pearl Town to rest first. The White Wolf Deity can wait there for the others."

Guo Huai and the others looked at Feng Yuan with some surprise.
