Chapter 523: Chapter 405: Kill the Crew and Seize the Treasure (Part 1)

"Whoosh whoosh"

The wild wind howled, and yellow sand rolled, blurring the line between heaven and earth. This Sea of Death was filled with a desolate silence, only the boundless sandstorms and bone-chilling Wind Mastery.

In the midst of this desolation, suddenly, a loud shout pierced the empty sky.

"As expected, they’ve followed!"

"Attack!"

In the darkness, three thunderous roars abruptly rang out, accompanied by three golden pillars of light shooting into the sky from the southwest, southeast, and true north, causing the heavens to tremble and the colors of the clouds to change.

Between the light pillars, a great banner soared into the sky, growing rapidly to thirty zhang in size, its face flapping violently in the wind. Golden lines swiftly moved across it, lighting it up, and three golden lines transformed into Mountain Chasing Whips, striking fiercely at the sandy ground in the center of the Big Formation.

"Boom"

A loud explosion echoed.

The dunes erupted, and the fierce high temperatures from the impact turned them into molten lava in an instant. Immediately after, rumbling sounds filled the air as the ground cracked open, the fissures rapidly expanding, causing a mountain collapse and earth crack.

The next second, the crash of surging water sounded.

Quickly, from the cracks below, vast amounts of water surged forth, spraying up giant waves dozens of meters high.

"Wuu wuu"

Amidst the splashing water, white mist rolled out between the cracked ground, and a large ship emerged from below, its mast and sails billowing in the raging wind, producing the sound of wailing.

Chen Yuan had placed the Dragon Formation; indeed, this ship had followed!

"Heh"

In the vast sky, a roar emerged from deep within the throat.

Then, from the southeast, a blaze of flame shot up, as two enormous fire wheels spun upwards surrounded by fire. In an instant, a Dharma Image appeared, poised a hundred zhang tall, engulfed in flames, draped in a fiery red long belt, its upper body bare, eyes like blazing suns. The two fire wheels then flew into the hands of this fierce Dharma Image.

Almost simultaneously, from the southwest and true north, a great roar arose as two more dazzling Spirit Lights appeared, revealing two more towering Dharma Images.

One, whose entire body was like blood jade glass, eyes like bloody suns, a body like an asura with murderous aura soaring to the sky, wielded a twenty-zhang long blood-red Mad Blade, whose blade edge split the sky, emitting a shrill hum;

The other was cloaked in a white civil servant’s robe, embroidered with a Green Jade Qilin on the chest, flowing sleeves, hair bound in a tall crown, waist cinched with a golden-cuff jade belt, holding an ancient yellow scroll in one hand, and a White Jade Black Brush in the other, eyes shining as brilliantly as stars, with white characters flashing Divine Light, transforming into pitch;

The three Martial Vault Dharma Images manifested together, each imposing in its own right!

They were, in order, three of the Taixui Mountain Thirteen Grand Protectors: Shaking Mountain Tiger Hu Yanqing, Mad Blade Yu Wenguang, and Jade Qilin, Jin Yushan.

After the appearance of these three Dharma Images, without saying anything extra, they simultaneously gave a fierce glance and pointed their sleeves toward the Mountain-cutting Banner floating above. Immediately, the black-bottomed golden-edged Mountain-cutting Banner lit up a golden mountain.

"Go!"

In an instant, the void hummed, and the three great banners quaked, and the golden mountain shapes within them unleashed brilliant golden light. A small mountain roared forth, shooting with a whiz toward the massive ship with a thunderous collision.

In the process, the golden small mountain grew larger in the wind, swelling rapidly from a dozen zhang to over a hundred zhang with each breath.

Three golden mountains surrounded the massive ship from three directions, closing in swiftly.

In the center, the sound of crashing waves echoed, giant waves soaring to the sky. The massive ship trembled, sending a hundred-meter-high azure wave crashing towards the three golden mountains.

"Boom"

"Boom"

"Boom"

The booming sound grew louder, golden mountains cleaving through the waves, waves crashing again and again. The golden mountains hummed, their edges sharp like blades and spears, slicing through the water, trying to cut open the watery veil, green gold light blazing through the black night sky.

This process lasted for about three or four breaths before the golden mountains drove some meters into the ship’s vicinity, unable to advance further.

During this stalemate, waves surged up from within the water curtain, crashing relentlessly against the three golden mountains.

The three golden mountains shook from the impact until, with a "whoosh," they were sent flying by the blue wave.

"Once more!"

"Combine forces!"

From the southeast direction, Hu Yanqing, engulfed in flames and with eyes blazing like the scorching sun, glared with indignation.

Immediately, a fire wheel flew from his hand, heading straight toward the retreating golden mountain. The fire wheel spun rapidly, its point emitting a whistle, abruptly stabilizing the retreating golden mountain, then with a reverse jolt, carried the golden mountain back to suppress once more.

Seeing this, Yu Wenguang and Jin Yushan acted decisively, Yu Wenguang’s hand slamming forward into the void, a massive bloody hand holding steady the repelled golden mountain. The Dharma Image Spirit Light flashed brilliantly, his throat emitting a low roar like a fierce beast, unleashing great force as the bloody hand pressed the golden mountain like a comet, forcing it back again.

Jin Yushan, stationed at the northern Heavenly Position, resonated with a sound in his eyes, holding the White Jade Black Brush, his hand writing dragons and snakes in the void before him while chanting the sounds of wind and thunder,

"There is righteous qi in heaven and earth, assorted in form. Below it becomes rivers and mountains, above it becomes sun and stars."

"Imperial Decree, seal it!"

With these words, the ink characters from his pen emitted a resonating sound, bursting with brilliant Spirit Light, whistling one by one as they flew into the golden mountain he commanded.

The golden mountain trembled, spinning rapidly, a majestic and heavy aura burst forth, causing the void to emit a piercing sound as if it could not endure, and immediately, the mountain transformed into a streak of golden light, along with the other two golden comets, once again crashing into the azure water curtain enveloping the massive ship.

This time, with the combined strike of the three and the amplification from the Mountain-cutting Formation Banner, the power increased many folds, the three golden mountains like three extraterrestrial meteors, fiercely crashing into the great waves.
