Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 114: Assassination of Gongshu, Chaos Escalates

the other side,
The White Crane Demon King, carrying the severely injured Gongshu Yu who had lost the ability to escape, flew at full speed above the sea of clouds towards the Guanlan Fairy City.

Woo~woo~
A faint flute sound came from the depths of the sea of clouds and directly hit the White Crane Demon King who was rushing on his way at full speed.

"Oh no! There's an ambush!"

The White Crane Demon King slowed down and had to use up several parts of his demonic power for defense. Being obstructed was secondary. His main purpose was to protect Gongshu Yu, who was already injured, from secondary harm.

Woo~woo~
The flute sounded continuously, clearly targeting him.

"I wonder which fellow Taoist is blocking the way? Please show yourself. We can discuss everything. There's no need to go to extremes."

This sonic attack, which made the White Crane Demon King unable to defend against, was the most effective means of attack against feathered beasts. It was obvious that the person who came was very familiar with Gongshu's configuration and was most likely a native of the Western Regions.

gurgling～

The one hidden in the sea of clouds did not answer and did not show up, but the sea of clouds where it lived changed into a lively cloud dragon.

"Ang~"

The cloud dragon in the sky roared and rushed down towards the White Crane Demon King.

"hateful!"

The White Crane Demon King was already being continuously restrained by the sonic attacks and was restricted in every way. He even had a mysterious helper with a higher cultivation level than himself. Gongshu Jia was in big trouble when he got this dragon ball.

"Feather Blade Storm!"

The White Crane Demon King could not escape, and the other party refused to negotiate, so he could only choose to disperse all the steel feathers on his body and make a fatal attack.

Thousands of steel feathers with rosy glow whizzed towards Yunlong. The powerful Yunlong did not dodge or evade. He collected all the feather blades and rushed down, opening his bottomless abyss mouth to swallow the White Crane Demon King.

"Fellow Daoist, please spare my life..."

Gongshu Yu seemed to want to promise something, but the other party was obviously out to kill him.

Ang~
Swallow it in one gulp!
Yunlong's originally wide-open eyes emitted two strong blood-red lights, and then turned back into an ordinary sea of clouds, as if no one had ever been here.

Chapter Center,

Gongshu Chou, who was originally joining forces with the hooded man to besiege the half-dragon leader of the Demon Moon Alliance and suppress the other party, suddenly stopped and quickly descended to the surface of the sea to avoid the attack.

He felt as if his mind was in turmoil, unable to distinguish between the sun, moon, heaven and earth. He had the illusion that his soul was being crushed.

"No!"

This was because the contract bridge deep in his soul was broken, which meant that the White Crane Demon King, who could have protected his family for hundreds of years, died prematurely.

"No! No! That's not it!"

Gongshu Chou recovered quickly thanks to his strong willpower, and he immediately took out a special soul tablet from his storage ring.

The shining starlight in the soul tablet has gone out, and the result is self-evident, which means that the person behind the starlight has also fallen.

"Yu'er~"

Gongshu Chou closed his eyes sadly. The two youngest and oldest golden elixirs in the family, representing the stability of the family inheritance, died together. The decline of the Gongshu family has become an fait accompli.

"What's wrong with Uncle Jiu?"

Gongshu Wu, another Jindan cultivator from the Gongshu family, was the first to notice the abnormality and stopped to inquire.

"Dead! Both of them are dead!"

Gongshu Wu was struck by lightning when he heard this. This was simply forcing the Gongshu family to death.

"Who—did—it?"

The direction in which the White Crane Demon King carried Gongshu Yu and retreated was exactly the direction in which the second wave of mysterious people appeared. They were the first suspects.

"Each of them is responsible!"

The Yaoyue Alliance came from the northwest region with a clear goal, which was to get the dragon ball of the Gongshu family. This was the cause of the incident.

Regarding the exchange of dragon balls, the Yaoyue Alliance acted secretly and had no time to inform a third party. Gongshu Chou and Gongshu Wu were uncle and nephew and had a close relationship, so it was impossible for them to betray their family.

Gongshujia was afraid of being taken advantage of, so he had to seek help from Qijia and Dongjia. Only Qijia and Dongjia knew the inside story.

Then one of the Qi family and the Dong family must want to use this opportunity to weaken the Gongshu family, so they must have betrayed their trust and secretly informed this mysterious third-party force.

The timing of the third-party mysterious man's action was too strange. It happened that Gongshu Yu was not completely out of danger. This action did not regard Gongshu Yu's life at all.

So Gongshu Chou and Gongshu Wu drew their swords and looked around in confusion. These people were all enemies!
"What are you two doing? Why don't you come and help?"

The mysterious leader's cultivation level is as high as the fifth level of Golden Core, but he is at a disadvantage when facing the dragon people of the Yaoyue Alliance who have transformed into monsters, and he urgently needs Gongshu Chou's help.

"Take off your hood! You rat from the Yunshang League!"

After Gongshu Chou calmed down his mind and spirit, what he wanted to know most was the identity of this group of mysterious people, so he directly shouted out his guess.

"Fellow Daoist Gongshu, I am Wu Jianyang of the Wu family. If you have anything to say, please come down and tell me. Please help me to subdue the demon!"

Wu Jianyang didn't know what had gone wrong with Gongshujia and the other man, but their unfriendly looks showed that something bad must have happened.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, state your identity directly.

Seeing this, the other three also took off their disguises, revealed their true auras, and took out their own magic weapons to fight the enemy, and the situation gradually stabilized.

"Alright, alright, the Yunshang Alliance is actually resorting to such despicable tactics to weaken Guanlan Immortal City, right?"

"Gongshu Chou, what are you talking about?"

"Gongshu Yu is dead! Bai He is also dead!"

Gongshu Chou roared loudly, and when the sound reached the ears of the thirteen people, the fierce fighting suddenly stopped, but started again after a short pause.

Compared to the previous tentative attacks, this time they were really going all out, truly aiming to kill the other party. Someone's dead! That would be a big problem!
Various disputes in the inner sea often have a limit. It is a consensus among everyone to try not to kill the other party's golden elixir. The Yaoyue Alliance is much stronger than the Gongshu family, but even if they captured Gongshu Yu, they did not touch his foundation.

Because for any Jindan force, having a Jindan cultivator killed is a mortal enmity that is difficult to resolve. Unless the opponent is completely killed by thundering means, it will become an enemy.

But now that Gongshujia is dead, the feud between the two is inevitable. The Yunshang Alliance must take back the Dragon Ball and kill as many people as possible from the Yaoyue Alliance, otherwise the hatred will be confirmed and it will be difficult to get rid of.

Although there are not many people coming from the Qi and Dong families, they must go from helping out to fighting with all their strength to killing the enemy. Otherwise, not only will the internal conflicts in Guanlan Xiancheng expand infinitely, but the alliance of Guanlan Xiancheng will also become a joke in the eyes of outsiders.

The same was true for the Yaoyue Alliance. They knew that they did not kill the people. There were only six of them from beginning to end. But as invaders, they could not stand at any angle. Now even if they left the Dragon Ball behind, they could not get away. They had to fight their way out.

"How did things come to this?"

Gongshu Chou and Gongshu Wu rejoined the battle, targeting the Yaoyue Alliance, with the intention of completely leaving behind the weakest members of the other side.

The dead are gone, and this is an outcome that cannot be changed. The living need to strive for greater benefits in order to allow the family to continue to be passed down. The flames of hatred have not completely extinguished their minds.

"Disperse and break out!"

It is difficult to fight against a larger force with a smaller one. The four members of the Yunshang Alliance had to disguise their identities before and could not fight with their full strength. Now that they have fought with their full strength, their strength has increased significantly. Even though the Yaoyue Alliance's members have been resistant to attacks and toughness, they can't withstand it after their transformation into golden elixir monsters.

咻咻咻～
Originally, the Yaoyue Alliance's formation of fighting and retreating while supporting each other was in chaos when the retreat began. Some people flew into the sky, some fell into the sea, and some were entangled and unable to escape.

"Brother! Don't leave me!"

It is impossible for everyone to be good at escaping, especially the weak Jindan who is used as a breakthrough point by the other party, who has no way to go up to the sky or down to the sea.

"I'll fight you!"

A half-werewolf whose transformation time has come and whose strength has seriously declined is forced into a desperate situation, and his aura fluctuates violently.

"Want to self-destruct your golden elixir? Wishful thinking! Zhao Hai!"

Under the cool light of the Qi family's golden elixir, the half-werewolf, whose aura was fluctuating strongly, paused.

puff~

Nine against six, three of the battle groups were two against one, and the half-werewolf Jindan had his head chopped off by a cold flying sword controlled by another Jindan cultivator of the Qi family.

The half-wolf head, having lost the support of demonic power, turned into a human head, but a closer look revealed that the subtle details still had some characteristics of a wolf demon.

Although this method of transformation can gain some extra power, it is not without cost.

"In this way, I can give an explanation to Gongshu Laogui."

"Alas, the Gongshu family deserves what they get for being so greedy."

Can something like Dragon Ball be privately owned by a public servant?

If the Gongshu family directly summoned the other two families after obtaining the Dragon Ball, would the three parties, totaling ten Jindan cultivators and two demon kings, be unable to guard a third-grade top-grade treasure for a hundred years?
the other side,
Gongshu Chou and Wu Jianyang pursued the dragon man relentlessly, with the dragon man in front, Wu Jianyang in the middle, and Gongshu Chou at the back, the three points forming a dynamic curve.

However, no matter whether the dragon man escaped into the clouds or dived into the seabed, the two men pursued him with all their might regardless of the cost, with no intention of letting go.

"Fellow Daoist, your plan has failed. Admit it! If you hand over the Dragon Ball, I will give up hunting you."

Wu Jianyang sent a message to the dragon man, bewitching his mind. Although the dragon man was shaken, he didn't dare to believe it.

"Fellow Daoist, you helped someone snatch this Dragon Ball, right? Why risk your life for an opportunity that doesn't belong to you? Will the Demon Moon Alliance kill you just because you didn't get the Dragon Ball?"

"Once your transformation is over, your life or death will no longer be in your hands!"

There are also late Jindan cultivators in the Yaoyue Alliance, and it is rumored that there is even more than one late Jindan cultivator.

Since the Yaoyue Alliance's industries are more related to the open sea, its overall combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the Yunshang Alliance, which focuses on business.

"How can I trust you?"

The journey to the Northwest Region is still very long. Although the dragon people are strong, they are not super strong in escape techniques. He also doesn't know whether he will encounter other local Jindan blocking the way ahead. It is impossible for him to risk his life for a mission.

"Just give it to me. I'm only here for the Dragon Balls!"

Wu Jianyang gave repeated assurances to the dragon man.

In the end, after evaluating his remaining mana and various external conditions, the Dragon Man determined that it would be difficult for him to escape without diverting the pursuers, especially after the Dragon Man's status dropped, it would be even more difficult to fight.

Although there will be certain penalties for failing the mission, given your status as a mid-stage Jindan, it won't be a big problem.

huh~
The dragon man turned his body and released a stream of precious light that was much faster than the flying speed of a Jindan cultivator and flew towards Gongshu Chou who was at the end of the three-point curve.

The Dragon Man naturally could not give the Dragon Ball to Wu Jianyang. He chose to give it to Gongshu Chou, who was slightly weaker.

"A cunning and untrustworthy beast!"

Wu Jianyang immediately gave up chasing the dragon man and chose to go towards the dragon ball.

"Dragon Ball!"

Gongshu Chou was shocked at first, then happy, and finally shocked again, but he still chose to take the dragon ball. This thing originally belonged to the Gongshu family, and now that the person is dead, the treasure cannot be lost easily.

"Fellow Daoist Gongshu, please give me the Dragon Ball. Our Yunshang Alliance has gone through so much trouble to support you, and we need this Dragon Ball as a reward."

Wu Jianyang showed no sign of restraining his momentum and blocked Gongshu Chou.

"Your high-sounding tone is truly disgusting! The Dragon Ball originally belonged to me, and now it's returned to its rightful owner, what's the problem?"

"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"

Wu Jianyang came here with a mission, and he would not feel good if he did not bring back the Dragon Ball, so when he saw Gongshu Chou showing signs of wanting to retreat, he attacked him directly.

"Wu family bastards, return Yu'er's life!"

Although Gongshu Chou was weaker, he was not afraid of fighting and even fought back against Wu Jianyang's attack.
