Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor
Chapter 625 - 622: Sea God Temple!

Chapter 625: Chapter 622: Sea God Temple!

Sea God Temple, previously a third-rate force among the Overseas Immortal Sects. However, a hundred years ago, it was expelled by its nemesis, Dragon Control Castle.

Fortunately, they were saved by the Master of the Heavenly Net, which prevented their complete annihilation.

Their former Hall Master, a Golden Core Great Cultivator, on the brink of death, had created a space 800 nautical miles away from Xingzhou in the Pacific Ocean for his disciples to cling on to survival.

For the past hundred years, they have turned away from worldly affairs, enduring hardships while zealously seeking to improve themselves. They hoped that once the Immortal Sects reopened, they could return to the Overseas Immortal Sects to seek revenge against Dragon Control Castle and erase the humiliation of the past.

However, the tranquility was broken by a secret message from the Master of the Heavenly Net.

The current Hall Master of Sea God Temple, named Hai Yazi, a Foundation Establishment Peak Perfect Cultivator, was only one step away from truly reaching the Golden Core Stage.

Yet this one step had eluded him for a hundred years. Logically, he should have broken through the bottleneck and formed his Golden Core a hundred years ago.

But due to the thin spiritual power in this mortal world, which is less than one-tenth of that in the Overseas Immortal Sects—and that ratio is in the ocean, on land it probably isn’t even one percent— he has been stuck at this bottleneck, unable to break through.

Hai Yazi also has seven proud disciples, the weakest of which has stepped into the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the strongest has reached the late-stage Foundation Establishment. Although this foundation is not comparable to that of the large Immortal Sects, it is not much weaker than Dragon Control Castle was a hundred years ago.

The only difference is that Dragon Control Castle has a Golden Core Stage Great Cultivator in residence, while Sea God Temple does not.

This time, to seek revenge upon their return to the Overseas Immortal Sects, they will need the assistance of the Master of the Heavenly Net.

As for the strength of the Master of the Heavenly Net, Hai Yazi was not quite clear. He only knew that a hundred years ago, the Master of the Heavenly Net was able to withstand Hong Tongzi, a Golden Core Cultivator and the Great Elder of Dragon Control Castle, without defeat. This indicated that even before then, he was already a Golden Core Cultivator.

Whether it is to repay the debt of gratitude from a hundred years ago, or driven by practical interests, they from Sea God Temple must carry out the instructions of the Master of the Heavenly Net to the letter.

Therefore, when Hai Yazi received the secret message from the Master of the Heavenly Net, he immediately gathered his seven disciples to assign the task.

Although these seven disciples lived in the mortal world at present, they have always considered themselves above others, as they pride themselves on being from the Overseas Immortal Sects.

Hearing Hai Yazi ask them to assassinate an ordinary mortal, they all felt somewhat reluctant.

"Master, it’s just a mortal, I can kill them all by myself!"

The speaker was Hai Yazi’s youngest disciple, Shen Xu. He had just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, full of confidence and contempt for all.

Shen Xu’s Martial Arts talent was very high, perhaps the highest among the seven disciples, and his combat ability was not weak. Before reaching Foundation Establishment, he was already able to defeat sea beasts beyond his level.

If he could enter an Immortal Sect, in time he would surely become a Golden Core Stage Great Cultivator. Therefore, Hai Yazi had very high hopes for him and was indulgent, resulting in his arrogant and unbridled nature.

"Shen Xu, don’t be reckless, do not underestimate the people of this mortal world. Young Master Xue Wuxie, with mid-stage Foundation Establishment power, still fell to Immortal Master Li’s hand. This indicates that Immortal Master Li is at least at mid-stage Foundation Establishment, perhaps even reaching the late stage. Alone, you may not be his match!"

Shen Xu, still arrogant, retorted: "That’s just because Young Master Xue is inept. Even before I reached Foundation Establishment, could I not still slay sea beasts beyond my level?"

"Younger brother, tone it down a bit, Master is only concerned for you!"

The eldest disciple, Kevin, seeing the awkward situation, stepped in to smooth things over.

Shen Xu snorted dismissively, though he said no more. However, his demeanor remained haughty, as if he didn’t take Immortal Master Li seriously at all.

Hai Yazi was unable to do anything with his junior disciple and just stroked his grizzled beard, chuckling, "Kevin, Ruohong, you two accompany Shen Xu. Be sure to watch out for your safety, and avoid provoking the military of major powers, understand?"

Shen Xu snorted disdainfully.

"Please, what a waste of talent. For just a trivial mortal, is it worth for the three of us to join hands?"

After complaining, Shen Xu left the Sea God Temple with Kevin and Ruohong, riding their flying swords toward Xingzhou.

Meanwhile, Li Chen had already breached the United States’ defense line stationed in Xingzhou, sending shivers through the Xingzhou Government, fearing that Immortal Master Li, this Killing God, would vent his wrath upon them. As it happened in the Philippines, they feared he would massacre them ruthlessly.

The President of Xingzhou, seeing that relying on the United States was no longer effective, rushed to seek the U.S. Embassy in China, hoping to negotiate the matter.

However, Li Chen completely ignored them, heading straight for the hiding place of Young Master Xue Wuxie.

Young Master Xue Wuxie was shocked to hear about the destruction and disintegration of the "Ford" supercarrier.

He had originally thought that, even if the U.S. forces stationed there could not kill Li Chen, they would at least be able to frighten him off.

But he never imagined things would turn out this way.

This combat power was simply terrifying, and even the Heaven’s Chosen Sons and the Holy Daughters of those super Overseas Immortal Sects would find it extremely difficult to destroy this behemoth of over a hundred thousand tons without the aid of Magical Treasures.

At this moment, Wuxie finally understood just how powerful the enemy before him really was. It was possible that Li Chen’s combat power was already not inferior to Li Lingyun and Saintess Zixuan.

"Young Master Xue, I’d like to see who can save you this time?"

Just as Young Master Xue was frantic with worry, Li Chen’s fierce voice, like that of the Death God, boomed like a thunderclap on a clear day.

Before his words even fell, a dazzling stream of light had already descended from the sky.

The newcomer had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his gaze cold and sharp as ice. Holding the Dragon Abyss Sword stained red with fresh blood in one hand, he radiated an intimidating urge to kill.

Young Master Xue steadied his mind and shouted, "Immortal Master Li, do you know the consequences of killing me?"

Li Chen looked at Young Master Xue with a gaze as if looking at a dead man, and coldly replied, "You needn’t worry about that!"

Seeing that Li Chen was impervious to persuasion, Young Master Xue became infuriated and began to scream hysterically.

"Li Chen, I am a member of the Heavenly Net. Killing me is equivalent to declaring war against the entire Heavenly Net. What a pity that your parents aren’t here, otherwise they would have told you just how terrifying the Heavenly Net really is?"

Li Chen’s heart trembled slightly, and he asked in a solemn voice, "Where are my parents right now?"

Young Master Xue answered, "At the Heavenly Net Headquarters, Ghost Island!"

Li Chen continued to inquire, "Where is Ghost Island?"

"Everywhere around the world, omnipresent!"

Young Master Xue wasn’t lying with this answer. Ghost Island, just like its name, was as elusive as a ghost.

Today you might see it in the Pacific Ocean, only for it to possibly appear in the Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, or even at the North Pole tomorrow. Wherever there is seawater, it might appear.

As for why this is the case, that secret is probably known only to the Master of the Heavenly Net under heaven.

Li Chen fell silent for a moment and then coldly stated.

"Take me there!"

Young Master Xue, with an uncooperative expression, coldly replied, "I don’t know where it is, how can I take you there?"

"In that case, you can go to die!"

Li Chen’s patience had already been completely worn thin by him. Without mentioning anything else, the fact that Young Master Xue Wuxie had once pierced Chuxue with a sword in a past life meant Li Chen could not let him live.

Before the murderous statement could even touch the ground, Li Chen wielded his sword and slashed out a brilliant Sword Rainbow, tearing through the void and slashing towards Young Master Xue.
