From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

The demons living deep in the mountains and forests are much simpler and more brutal. They know the value of humans, but unlike fox demons and female ghosts, they don't understand cultivation, so they simply devour people whole, making it much less efficient...

# Chapter 477 Bombarding the Sea Dragon King

hum-

As they were talking, the sea surged, the dragon fire that seemed to glow like fire vanished, and the dazzling Crystal Palace disappeared.

The wind howled!

The waves are rolling backwards!

The passengers on deck, including Jonathan, were horrified and rushed into the cabins, not daring to linger.

Jiang Liu remained on the deck, feeling the even stronger gale than before, and the waves sweeping across the sea. He discovered that the waves were not caused by the gale, but by the surging currents on the seabed.

And it seems to have formed a huge vortex!

Judging from Jiang Liu's mental scan, this vortex was extremely large, with a diameter of at least three kilometers!

"We have entered the outermost perimeter of the core area of ​​the Guixu Qi Bureau."

Jiang Liu sensed the direction of the airflow and his expression turned serious. "The airflow is extremely violent! It seems we have no choice but to enter the Ruins of Return! Lu Jin, are you ready?"

"Of course!"

Lu Jin was not afraid.

Boom!

In an instant!

Dark clouds loomed overhead, and streaks of white lightning darted across the sky, giving the impression that they were about to strike at any moment.

The waves surged and crashed against the ship, trying to capsize it, but the captain's skill was superb, and even as the ship rocked from side to side, it maintained its balance.

Even though this ship is not small, it is still just a small boat compared to the vast ocean.

but.

At the bow of the boat, the river stood firmly, unmoved by the rolling waves and the onslaught of wind and rain, its gaze clear and unwavering.

Even the captain, sitting in the wheelhouse, couldn't help but exclaim, "My God!"

immediately.

His eyes widened in terror, and he cried out, "My God!!!"

Nearly a hundred meters ahead of the ship, waves rose a hundred meters high, but they didn't look like normal waves. It was as if something had crashed into the sea, splashing up such high waves, or something had emerged from the seabed, causing those towering waves to reach the sky.

"That is?!"

Lu Jin saw the creature in the hundred-meter-high wave clearly, gasped, hissed for a moment, and exclaimed in horror, "There really is a sea dragon king!"

Amidst the waves, there was a giant sea serpent with black scales, dragon fins on its back, a head like a dragon, a pair of antlers, and two long whiskers beside its nose!

The sea serpent had no claws on its belly, but its head clearly showed a tendency to transform into a dragon!

But what's most surprising is its size—

It looks to be at least seventy meters long!

How terrifying!

Even the Azure Dragon and the White Dragon, which rely on the Qi of the river to transform into form, do not possess such a form!

"It's that Sea Dragon King!"

Gu Qian gripped the railing tightly, his face filled with fear, and shouted to Jiang Liu, "The Sea Dragon King and that Mermaid are at odds. The Mermaid wants to ascend to the moon, which means she's trying to ignite the dragon fire to attract the Sea Dragon King's attention and make him leave the Guixu Sea... I understand! We are not sacrifices!"

Jiang Liu roughly understood the reason.

Before this, Gu Qian had always believed that he and the other seven were sacrifices used by the Mermaid to appease the heavens, but after seeing the Sea Dragon King, he understood—

The Mermaid is trying to use them to lure away the Sea Dragon King, who might affect her "ascension plan"!

only.

The "offerings" have now changed from the giant tortoise paper boat and the dragon otter people inside to everyone on this ship.

Monsters love to eat people.

The further away a monster is from human civilization, the more barbaric its methods of eating people become. Unlike fox spirits, beautiful snakes, or female ghosts who try to absorb the essence and vital energy of scholars, monsters use the simplest and most brutal method—swallowing people alive.

Low efficiency.

But I couldn't resist eating so much!

The Dragon King of the Sea, who had leaped onto the crest of a wave, also spotted the ship. He followed the waves back into the sea, stirring up the waves, and launched a surprise attack on the ship.

"Everyone hold on to whatever is secure!" The captain, looking through the glass in the wheelhouse, naturally saw the snake's shadow in the hundred-meter-high waves and sensed that the sea dragon was about to attack the ship. He instinctively turned the rudder and veered to one side.

The passengers on the ship were all thrown about.

Even Lu Jin was swaying at this moment, while Jiang Liu remained standing still, rocking with the boat, his body upright.

The sea dragon king swam past the side of the ship, creating a wave that crashed against Gu Qian and the others who were also standing on the deck.

"Brother Jiang?"

Lu Jin hurriedly ran to the side of the boat and looked back. He saw a wide white wave rolling backward, then quickly circling around and chasing after the ship... He didn't understand why Jiang Liu didn't make a move.

"I saw it, but it's a bit tricky."

Indeed.

Jiang Liuzhang possesses the Five Elements Qi within his body. He cultivates the Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques and wields Dharma Image Talismans and Seals. All the acupoints in his body are opened, reaching the state of embryonic breathing. Even when submerged in water, he can breathe normally.

But he was, after all, a human, not a fish. His speed in the water was nowhere near as agile as that of the Sea Dragon King. Moreover, the Sea Dragon King was far more familiar with this sea area than he was. Even if he was no match for him, he could escape quickly, leaving no time to pursue him—it was a thankless task.

In addition, Jiang Liu had another idea: "Speaking of which, the Sea Dragon King has lived in the waters around Guixu for many years."

It must be able to sense any movement or disturbance here.

It is unlikely that it would enter that vortex on its own, and it must also be able to naturally sense the flow of sea air.

If we can later harness its power, we might be able to leave the Void Qi Formation.

The Land of Ruins

They're definitely going!

As for the Mermaid riding the Jianmu tree to the moon?

Jiang Liu knew with his own eyes that it was impossible to succeed. Triggering such a celestial phenomenon was already the limit, and whether the eye of the South China Sea could actually be moved to the East China Sea was still unknown.

As for why the sea eye was moved to the East China Sea?

The river flows on, unaware.

But this is mostly to correspond with the sun, moon, and stars, or perhaps to better connect with the celestial energy after the Guixu Qi formation shifts to the East Sea, thereby further enhancing its power...

"Use the power of the Sea Dragon King to leave the Guixu Qi Formation?" Lu Jin was taken aback.

"Absolutely!"

Jiang Liu affirmed, "The energy of this Guixu is so intense that it has caused storms in the weather and swirled sea air. We definitely have to go into Guixu, but we may still have to rely on this giant sea serpent to get out of Guixu afterwards!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jin nodded, his body suddenly swaying for a moment along with the ship. He quickly gathered his qi to steady himself and said helplessly, "But this sea serpent is ramming the ship. If it capsizes the ship, that won't be good either!"

"That's true."

Jiang Liu flicked his left index finger, and the iron rod appeared in his hand.

at this time.

The sailors on the ship also pushed out their cannons.

Seeing that its attack had failed to capsize the ship, the Dragon King of the Sea created a distance of about one kilometer between itself and the ship. Then, it darted rapidly across the sea, forming arches with its body and stirring up waves.

"fire!"

The first mate shouted and suddenly swung his arm.

The sailors set up the cannons, aimed them at the thrashing sea dragon king, and lit the fuses.

boom!

With a cannon blast, a cannonball, the size of a human head, struck the right scales of the sea dragon king that had leaped out of the sea.

# Chapter 478 The Eye of the Returning Ruins (Part 1)

The cannonball collided with the scales, creating a spark. The enormous impact caused the Sea Dragon King to lose his balance and tilt to the left.

Whoosh!

As the sea dragon king sank to the surface, the sailors exclaimed in excitement.

Jiang Liu knew that while the cannonball's power exceeded the destructive force most extraordinary individuals could achieve in a lifetime of cultivation, it was still insufficient to kill a large sea serpent—

Especially considering that the cannonball was a solid iron ball and wouldn't explode, how could one possibly kill a sea dragon king who was over seventy meters long, skilled in water, and possessed Qi?

That's nothing short of a pipe dream!

Even if nuclear weapons were dropped into the seabed, the Sea Dragon King could escape the blast radius thanks to the buffering effect of the seawater, thus surviving by sheer luck.

of course.

If it were truly a nuclear weapon, even if the Sea Dragon King could avoid the explosion, he couldn't avoid the radiation, and his genes would most likely suffer irreversible damage.

As for radiation mutations—

The chance of a body's genes being broken by radiation and then recombining perfectly and stably is less than one in a trillion.

Let's get back to the present.

After the Sea Dragon King sank to the surface, the area where the ship was located also developed a whirlpool shape that could be seen by the naked eye.

"It's an ocean eddy!"

The captain in the wheelhouse, his eyes twitching, cursed, "Shit! How can there be a whirlpool here? I've never encountered one before!"
