Chapter 291: Chapter 288 Successive Perils

"Second Miss, the Overturning Sea Great Sage is an Upper-grade Earth Level Demon Beast, and it’s a huge aquatic type. Not to mention us, even Soul Sea Realm experts would probably have to back off three miles..." a tributor of the Yu Family said with a face full of shame.

Three tributors of the Yu Family took the Second Lady of the Yu Family up into the sky, and the martial artists on the big ship, especially those from the Spirit Summoning Realm, followed suit, flying away from the ship to save their lives.

This scene made some of the younger True Essence Realm guards on the big ship jump up and curse, but several older, dark-skinned sailors just sat down at the bow like nothing was wrong and took out their smoking pipes for a delightful puff.

"Old sailor, what are you thinking at a time like this?"

"It’s useless! In front of the Overturning Sea Great Sage, they can’t escape unless they can fly above three hundred meters like Spirit Transformation Realm martial artists; otherwise, they’re just waiting for death!"

The old sailor looked at the martial artists who had fled to the lower air like he was looking at dead men.

"Yes, encountering the Overturning Sea Great Sage is just a matter of luck! This is the second time I’ve encountered it, so it’s all about luck now..."

"Ah..."

As everyone was in shock, the bodies of the three Spirit Transformation Realm martial artists carrying the Second Lady Yu swayed wildly due to her intense struggles. After all, flying in the sky while carrying someone was extremely difficult.

"What are you doing! Let me go, I need to save my brother, save my brother...!"

"You are holding me with the Yu Family’s tributors, are you just going to watch my brother die miserably? Hurry up..."

The unreasonableness of the Second Lady Yu angered one of the tributors.

"Second Miss, not just us, even if the Family Head personally came, I fear he would be powerless! Even the strong ones in the Soul Sea Realm can survive in the presence of the Overturning Sea Great Sage, but to confront it..."

"Moreover, by now, the Young Master and his group have probably already become the Overturning Sea Great Sage’s..."

"Hey, look, Second Miss, you all look!"

Suddenly, a tributor of the Yu Family showed a look of surprise and pointed at the huge pit created by the Overturning Sea Great Sage.

Since they were flying high in the sky, they could see everything inside the giant water pit clearly, even though the Overturning Sea Great Sage had caused water waves as high as a hundred meters around it.

Inside the water pit, Ye Zhen stood proudly at the bow of the ship, his hands forming a strange seal, holding a small jade seal one meter above the huge body of the Overturning Sea Great Sage, emitting an astonishing aura.

Around the jade seal, the water waves that had risen to the sky suddenly had a break, as if they were being suppressed.

The Overturning Sea Great Sage, which was about to trap its prey with its tentacles, also dangled limply in the air, not probing downward.

Just as Ye Zhen and the others were about to meet their end inside the beast’s stomach, Ye Zhen made a lightning-fast move, activating the Green Jade Seal to suppress, creating this bizarre scene.

"Who is this person who can actually suppress the Overturning Sea Great Sage? This person is too terrifying, right?" the tributors of the Yu Family exclaimed from the sky.

This scene also made the frantically struggling Second Lady Yu finally calm down, her eyes fixed on the scene in the water pit, filled with tension.

"You, hurry and help that person, hurry..."

"Second Miss, if we meddle recklessly, it might backfire..."

"Look!" On the tumultuous, water-waved surface, another change occurred.

The Sky-turning Great Sage let out one scream after another, like a baby’s. In its huge, angrily flailing body, each flail caused a crack to burst forth on the Green Jade Seal.

Almost simultaneously, the tentacles in the air shrank, all whipping towards the Shattered Jade Seal.

"Suppress!"

With a stern shout, Green Jade Spiritual Power surged into the Green Jade Seal like a tide, making the Green Jade Seal shine brightly.

The terrifying force overwhelmed them, causing all the towering waves to suddenly sink and also caused the Overturning Sea Great Sage’s tentacles aiming for the Green Jade Seal to limply fall into the sea.

"Quick, let’s get out of here, I can’t hold on much longer!"

Ye Zhen urgently urged Uncle Liu and Yu Ning.

"But what about you, Brother Zheng?"

It must be said that Yu Ning’s nature was extremely good-hearted. At a life-and-death moment, she was still concerned about Ye Zhen.

"You go ahead, I have a way!"

As he spoke, Ye Zhen activated his Divine Sense, and the Cloud Winged Tiger Cub in his arms spread its slightly shrunken meaty wings, gathering a great amount of Cloud Qi instantly under Ye Zhen’s feet, lifting him slowly into the air.

Calculating the speed, Ye Zhen prepared to look for an opportunity to shatter the Green Jade Seal.

Although both the Overturning Sea Great Sage and the Green Origin Purple Eyed Tiger King were Upper-grade Earth Level Demon Beasts, their powers were not comparable. The Overturning Sea Great Sage’s body was several times larger than that of the Green Origin Purple Eyed Tiger King; even if the Green Jade Seal exploded, it wouldn’t severely damage the Overturning Sea Great Sage.

Now, Ye Zhen was only temporarily suppressing the Overturning Sea Great Sage with the Green Jade Seal, but seeing the seal continuously crack and mend, it was clear that Ye Zhen couldn’t hold on much longer.

"It’s about time..."

Just as Ye Zhen was preparing to explode the Green Jade Seal and then swiftly ascend into the sky to escape, he suddenly paused.

Not far below in the lower air, twenty to thirty Spirit Summoning Realm martial artists were fleeing in panic, and on that big ship, over a hundred people gathered on the deck, as if waiting for death, staring in this direction.

"This..."

Ye Zhen knew that if he exploded the Green Jade Seal, using its explosive force, he could definitely escape to above three hundred meters and survive. But the people on that big ship, including the dozens of Spirit Summoning Realm martial artists, would undoubtedly die facing the enraged Overturning Sea Great Sage.

In an instant, Ye Zhen made his decision—he could not stand by and watch these people die.

This wasn’t Ye Zhen on an adventure, acting the hero!

Ye Zhen wasn’t foolish, but he indeed possessed a human heart.

If he found himself without any strategies left or powerless, Ye Zhen would definitely withdraw from this place at the fastest speed to protect himself.

Save people? Sorry, I don’t have that capability. I can only save myself first. As for the life and death of these people, Ye Zhen can’t manage, nor is he a saint.

However, knowing he had the capability, if he allowed these people to be tortured to death by the Overturning Sea Great Sage, Ye Zhen would absolutely be unable to convince himself.

With a thought, the radiance of the War Soul Blood Flag in his embrace brightened, a stream of blood light silently infused into Ye Zhen’s body, causing his Divine Soul Power to surge exponentially.

To a martial artist, Divine Soul Power is akin to a commander. Besides its inherent power, the strength of the Divine Soul also determines the amount of power a martial artist can stimulate at one time.

Under the blessing of the War Soul Blood Flag, although Ye Zhen’s Cultivation hadn’t changed, his Divine Soul Power had doubled. In an instant, the remaining sixty percent of Green Jade Spiritual Power in his body surged into the nearly shattered Green Jade Seal!

The Green Jade Seal burst forth with dazzling light in an instant!

The Overturning Sea Great Sage, who had just broken free a bit and was preparing to attack, suddenly brightened in form, causing the vast water waves to sink down all at once.

"My heavens, what strength is this, Upper-grade Earth Level Demon Beast, the Overturning Sea Great Sage, was suppressed... It seems this person only revealed an aura of Spirit Transformation Realm First Stage..." A tributor from the Yu Family was staring in disbelief.

As for the Second Lady of Yu Family, looking at Ye Zhen, who was majestically rising slowly, she was somewhat dazed...

"Hundred Breaths, you have a hundred breaths to escape!"

Ye Zhen’s voice, tinged with a bit of gravity, resonated across the entire water surface.

The people on the sea boat were first stunned, then the sailors and the old captain concentrated on the deck suddenly came to their senses.

"Great benefactor, please, start the boat! Full speed ahead, we might just be able to escape to safety with a hundred breaths!"

In the sky, Uncle Liu, who had just flown Yu Ning to a high altitude, was also stunned. His gaze towards Ye Zhen suddenly changed, carrying a rare respect!

A respect from an old warrior of Jianghu.

The next moment, Uncle Liu’s figure flashed, swiftly descending to the big ship, and yelled at the Spirit Summoning Realm martial artists fleeing chaotically in the high skies, "Quick, get on the boat, use Spiritual Power to speed up the boat, everyone can survive!"

Under the surge of Spiritual Power, the sailors took their positions. The big boat began to turn and accelerate, the speed skyrocketed, and more and more Spirit Summoning Realm martial artists also landed back on the ship, joining in spurring the boat with Spiritual Power.

"Second Miss, let’s get on the boat too, we might all survive today."

Three Spirit Transformation Realm martial artists got on the boat, making the big ship race across the water surface, reaching an extreme speed.

"Brother, are you alright! Brother, who is that person?" Once on the big boat, the Second Miss Yu cared for her brother Yu Ning with her words, but her gaze remained fixed on Ye Zhen activating the Green Jade Seal below.

Below, Ye Zhen was enveloped in swirling Spiritual Power and clouds gathered around him, forming a halo like a banished immortal!

"Quick, faster, the farther we run the better!"

After eighty breaths, the big boat had disappeared without a trace, the cracks on the Green Jade Seal enhanced by Ye Zhen’s whole body’s Spiritual Power were increasing, and the water surface began to churn once more.

Crack, crack, crack!

The sounds of the Green Jade Seal cracking intensified; Ye Zhen’s body was nearly depleted of all Spiritual Power, all expended on reinforcing the Green Jade Seal. If not for the Spiritual Power Seed in his body producing a bit of Spiritual Power, Ye Zhen’s Dantian would probably be empty by now.

"About time!"

Ye Zhen’s eyes sharpened, suddenly he exclaimed with a light shout, "Explode!"

Whoosh!

Instantly, the Green Jade Seal burst open, a massive amount of Green Jade Spiritual Power poured downwards towards the Overturning Sea Great Sage, immediately causing the water below to surge up in waves as if boiling.

Almost simultaneously, Ye Zhen’s figure shot up like lightning, rushing towards the high skies.

Watching the Green Jade Seal explode below, a trace of relief and disappointment appeared in Ye Zhen’s eyes.

Indeed, his Green Jade Seal couldn’t gravely wound the Overturning Sea Great Sage.

The exploded Green Jade Seal had sliced off a thick layer of flesh from the back of the Overturning Sea Great Sage, even revealing white bones.

But the wounded area, just two to three meters in range, relative to the nearly hundred meters large Overturning Sea Great Sage, was like scooping out a palm-sized piece from an adult’s body.

It was hardly a grave injury, let alone a fatal one.

The next moment, the Overturning Sea Great Sage issued an angry and insane shriek, the small fishing boats on the water surface were smashed to pieces, a dozen tentacles stretching over a hundred meters rose high into the sky, flailing wildly.

The surrounding water boomed as if boiling, and the lake water within a radius of several miles turned turbid.

"They should be safe now, it’s a success..."

As Ye Zhen ascended into the high sky, he sighed in relief, murmuring softly.

Just at that moment, Ye Zhen’s expression dramatically changed, a feeling of extreme danger abruptly surged in his mind.

From behind the clouds, a Sword Gang silently pierced towards Ye Zhen’s critical heart spot.

"Dare to ruin my plans, die!"

At the same time, an angry cold snort resounded in Ye Zhen’s ears.(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
