Chapter 494: 402 Thunder Flood Dragon News (No more today)_1

In the Northern Sea Cultivation Realm, the Golden Flood Dragon marketplace.

The streets were bustling with people, the noise of carriages and horses filled the air, making it a lively scene.

In a secluded courtyard with green-tiled roofs, Song He, Liu Xin, and three others sat around a green stone table, leisurely sipping tea and chatting.

"Senior Wang of Heavenly Beast Island is holding a Divinity Transformation ceremony. I wonder if Senior Shen will come to attend. I’ve heard that Senior Shen’s master has already arrived in the Northern Sea Cultivation Realm,"

Song He said.

He was currently at the late stage of Core Formation, and many cultivators of the Outer Sea knew that they were working for Shen Long.

Shen Long had a reputation that soared; his combat power matched that of great Nascent Soul cultivators in the later phase. Indirectly, Song He and his group also benefited, at the very least, no one would openly oppose them, and the Han Family and Ximen Family provided some conveniences for them.

"Possibly! I’ve heard that the disciples of Heavenly Beast Island have been distributing invitations everywhere, the major forces of the Human Clan from the Qianyang Realm have all received an invitation,"

Liu Xin speculated.

Song He took out a law disk that flickered with blue light and input a spell. Shen Long’s voice sounded, "Song Xiaoyou, are you at the marketplace?"

"Senior Shen, we’re all at the marketplace. What would you like to instruct?"

Song He stood up, his voice respectful.

"Come to the Golden Cicada Pavilion. I have something to tell you,"

Shen Long instructed.

"Yes, Senior Shen."

Song He immediately agreed and put away the messaging plate.

"I just knew Senior Shen would come. Let’s go to the Golden Cicada Pavilion together,"

Song He said excitedly. The group of five arrived at the Golden Cicada Pavilion and met Shen Long.

Shen Long had come to the Outer Sea Cultivation Realm, visited the Han Family, and learned that the Divinity Transformation ceremony would not convene until half a year later, so he proceeded to the Outer Sea.

"We pay our respects to Senior Shen,"

Song He and the others bowed deeply, their expressions solemn.

"Dispense with the formalities. Song Xiaoyou, you’ve reached Great Perfection in Core Formation, not bad!"

Shen Long complimented him.

"It’s all thanks to Senior Shen’s care. Otherwise, we would have died long ago."

Song He expressed his gratitude.

"Indeed! Some Nascent Soul cultivators, knowing we act on behalf of Senior Shen, do not trouble us, and the Ximen and Han families provide us with certain conveniences. It’s all because of Senior Shen."

Liu Xin echoed.

"Has there been any major incident in the Outer Sea, or sightings of a fourth-order Flood Dragon?"

Shen Long casually asked.

"If we’re talking about major incidents, it would be the Su Family of Black Phoenix Island being extinguished and Senior Wang advancing to the Divinity Transformation Stage. More than ten years ago, a late-phase fourth-order Thunder Flood Dragon appeared and killed Guangyuan True Monarch and Golden Bee True Monarch, both among the ten immortals of the Northern Sea."

Song He explained.

"A late-phase fourth-order Thunder Flood Dragon?"

Shen Long showed interest.

Liu Xin took out a green storage bag and handed it to Shen Long, "Senior Shen, these are some alchemy materials and information about the location where the Thunder Flood Dragon appeared."

Shen Long received the storage bag, scanned it with his divine sense, and nodded, "You’ve done a good job. These resources are for you."

He handed a blue storage bag to Song He.

"Thank you, Senior Shen,"

Song He gratefully said, accepting the blue storage bag.

"This is nothing. Oh, and I am looking for this type of Alien Beast. Keep an eye out for me, and notify me immediately if there is any news. Nascent Soul spiritual objects and Spiritual Treasures are also on the table, but I prefer not too many people know about this. You five are enough."

Shen Long took out a blue painting scroll and passed it to Song He.

"Nascent Soul spiritual objects! Spiritual Treasures!"

Song He and the others gasped, their faces filled with excitement as they hurriedly agreed.

Shen Long extracted a red law disk, input a spell, and the voice of Ximen Hao sounded, "Taoist Friend Shen, I heard you’re in the Outer Sea. When you’re free, please come to Jinyao Garden for a visit. A good friend of mine would like to meet you."

"Alright, I will come right over. By the way, I also have something I’d like to discuss with Taoist Friend Ximen,"

Shen Long agreed.

"That’s great, then I shall await Taoist Friend Shen’s esteemed arrival at the Jinyao Garden."

Ximen Hao’s tone was warm.

Shen Long put away the Messaging Plate and said, "You go on with your tasks. If there’s any news about this Alien Beast, don’t act recklessly. Notify me immediately."

"Yes, Senior Shen."

Song He and the other four answered in unison, leaving the place.

Shen Long also left the Golden Cicada Pavilion and arrived at the Jinyao Garden.

Ximen Sen stood at the entrance, quickly walked up to Shen Long, bowed deeply, and said, "Junior pays respects to Senior Shen."

"Taoist Friend Ximen has something to discuss with me, so I came over for the appointment,"

said Shen Long.

"Please follow me, Senior Shen."

Ximen Sen made a welcoming gesture and led the way.

Shen Long followed Ximen Sen and before long, they arrived at a quiet small courtyard with green tiles.

Ximen Hao and a burly man in a golden robe were sitting next to a blue stone table. The man in the gold robe emitted a strong murderous aura.

"Taoist Friend Shen, it’s been a while. Allow me to introduce you. This is Taoist Friend Qian."

Ximen Hao said enthusiastically, while Ximen Sen tactfully excused himself.

"I am Qian Hao, I’ve met Taoist Friend Shen. I’ve heard that you possess immense physical strength. Would you like to spar? One punch to decide the winner?"

The man in the gold robe was brimming with a fighting spirit.

Shen Long was slightly taken aback, challenged to a spar upon their first meeting?

"Taoist Friend Shen, please don’t misunderstand. Taoist Friend Qian is a Half-Barbarian with great physical strength. He has heard of your prowess and wishes to exchange pointers with you,"

Ximen Hao explained.

Qian Hao’s father was a Barbarian Cultivator, and his mother was from the Human Clan.

"Let’s not do this now. There will be a chance in the future to properly spar with Taoist Friend Qian,"

Shen Long gracefully declined.

"Alright, we’ll agree on that,"

Qian Hao agreed.

Ximen Hao invited Shen Long to sit down, and they began to chat casually.

"Taoist Friend Qian, you encountered a Stage Four Late Stage Green Wind Roc on Immortal Fall Island?"

Shen Long exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes! Its Escape Speed is too fast, too agile. I had no way to deal with it, otherwise, I wouldn’t have hesitated to kill it,"

Qian Hao said with a tone of regret.

"By the way, Taoist Friend Ximen, I’ve heard that a Stage Four Late Stage Thunder Flood Dragon has appeared,"

Shen Long asked about the situation with the Stage Four Thunder Flood Dragon.

"That’s correct. This beast’s body is robust, strong enough to resist Spiritual Treasures, and it is also proficient in the Thunder Method, having mastered the Thunder Escape Technique. It’s very troublesome. Five Nascent Soul Cultivators, including Guangyuan True Monarch and Golden Bee True Monarch, have been killed by it,"

Ximen Hao said regretfully.

"Indeed, this Flood Dragon is formidable. If it encounters us, we will certainly flay it and extract its tendons,"

Qian Hao said with full confidence.

"Taoist Friend Ximen, I’ve heard there are Stage Five Monster Beasts in the Outer Sea?"

Shen Long changed the topic.

"That was hundreds of years ago. Taihao True Monarch acted and repelled it. It has been hiding in the depths of the Outer Sea ever since. We Cultivators dare not venture too far. If we encounter a Stage Five Monster Beast, it would be troublesome,"

Ximen Hao said.

"Could it be dead, having not shown itself for hundreds of years? I’ve heard it hasn’t achieved Transformation, and its cultivation efficiency is too low. If it was devouring its kin, the Stage Four Monster Beasts in the Outer Sea would have been eradicated by now,"

Qian Hao speculated.

"We cannot rule out that possibility. Some areas in the deep Outer Sea have spatial rifts, natural prohibitions. A Stage Four Late Stage Beast was once sucked into one of the spatial rifts,"

Ximen Hao said.

He took out a Law Disk that shimmered with Spiritual Light, input a spell, and exclaimed in surprise, "A Stage Four Thunder Flood Dragon has appeared."
