Martial Arts Overlord

Hoo...

Gently exhaling a deep breath, Luo Feng opened his eyes and awoke from his meditation.

The matter of entering the Holy Land for training is still too distant; for now, the focus must be on how to improve strength quickly.

Yue Haitang sat nearby, lost in thought, and when she saw Luo Feng come to, she slightly pursed her lips and said:

"Luo Feng, about earlier, thank you."

Luo Feng shook his head, "No need to thank me. Back in the Red Flame Desert, I promised you I’d accompany you to the Sword Tomb after the New Dragon List Conference. I’m just fulfilling that promise now."

"Are you really planning to accompany me to the Sword Tomb?"

A light shone in Yue Haitang’s eyes.

"Of course."

Luo Feng smiled and said, "It’s something I promised you, and besides, we’re friends. Both emotionally and rationally, I would accompany you. Moreover, even if I wanted to back out now, I probably couldn’t."

Luo Feng pointed towards Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng beside them.

A hint of a smile appeared on Yue Haitang’s face, and she said, "Then in a month, we’ll set out. During this time, I should be able to break through to the True Yuan Realm."

"Mm."

Luo Feng nodded, as he also had many matters to address.

"By the way, I return this to you."

Luo Feng took out the Sword Heart Heaven Jade and handed it to Yue Haitang.

Yue Haitang didn’t reach out to take the Sword Heart Heaven Jade, and she shook her head, "Keep the Sword Heart Heaven Jade with you for now. It’s your credential to enter the Sword Tomb, and it’s much safer with you."

Luo Feng thought for a moment and agreed with Yue Haitang. With his current strength, even if he couldn’t defeat Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng, he was quite confident in his ability to escape, but Yue Haitang was not as capable.

However, the Sword Heart Heaven Jade is a sacred relic of the Sword Tomb. Yue Haitang entrusted such a treasure to him so easily, which made him somewhat moved.

"Then I’ll keep it, and I’ll return it to you after we reach the Sword Tomb."

Luo Feng put away the Sword Heart Heaven Jade and looked over to the other side, where the Hall Masters of the Six Golden Palaces had gathered, along with many high-ranking members.

Initially, Shui Qingcheng had her eyes slightly closed, but she opened them, and a seven-colored mysterious light flashed in her pupils as she said:

"The outcome is known."

"What exactly happened in the Endless Ocean?" The Hall Master of Yuangang Hall, with a fiery temper, couldn’t wait to ask.

Shui Qingcheng said, "It’s no small matter. There was a battle between two Kings in the Extreme North Land of the Endless Ocean over the dispute for the Saint Soul, and this tsunami occurred as a result."

"A battle between two Kings!"

At this statement, everyone nearby was shocked, and the Hall Masters of the Golden Palaces all wore expressions of astonishment and disbelief.

Every martial artist qualified to attain the title of King is a dominant figure capable of earth-shattering deeds, and such individuals rarely show themselves before others.

The eyes of everyone on the mountaintop were also drawn towards this scene.

Saint Soul!

Hearing Shui Qingcheng’s words, Luo Feng felt an indescribable tension in his heart, and he immediately thought of Bing Ruolan, watching Shui Qingcheng with a mix of nervousness and anticipation.

"Shui Qingcheng, who are these two Kings?" Tu Wanshan’s voice had deepened greatly.

There was no way to hide this matter, and attempting to conceal it was futile. Shui Qingcheng slightly raised her voice, "One is Bing Wunian, the Palace Master of North Sea Ice Palace, and the other is the Boundless Sea King, who slew the Deathless King in the Misty Swamp a thousand years ago."

Boom!

As soon as these words fell, a figure suddenly stood up, and the fierce aura emanating from them forced the people nearby to retreat repeatedly, unable to maintain their stances.

"Senior Sister Lin Hongyi!"

"Senior Sister!"

A series of exclamations arose at the Yuangang Hall disciples’ camp, and everyone looked toward the standing figure, which was Lin Hongyi.

At this moment, Lin Hongyi’s face looked rather unsightly, her bright eyes filled with killing intent.

"Lin Hongyi, is something the matter?" Tu Wanshan asked.

Others were quite puzzled as well.

Swish!

A silhouette appeared beside Lin Hongyi, and Luo Feng said, "Apologies, I just played a joke on Lin Hongyi."

Upon hearing this, many young disciples had knowing looks, some with faint smiles as they observed Luo Feng.

To disconcert the Red-dusted Vajra to such an extent, one could only imagine that the joke was not a simple one. For a moment, curious thoughts filled the minds of those present as they speculated about the nature of the joke.

Only a few who knew Luo Feng well were even more puzzled.

Lin Hongyi gradually calmed down, exhaling a breath and clasping her fists toward Shui Qingcheng, "Water Palace Master, may I ask about the result of the battle between the Boundless Sea King and the North Sea Ice Palace?"

Everyone’s attention immediately turned to Shui Qingcheng.

Shui Qingcheng slowly said, "The Boundless Sea King and the North Sea Ice Palace Master battled for hundreds of rounds, with victories and losses on both sides. Eventually, due to interference from other forces, they stopped without a clear victory."

"So this tsunami was caused by a battle between two Kings; no wonder it was so terrifying."

"The North Sea Ice Palace Master and the Boundless Sea King are rulers in their domains; it’s a pity we couldn’t witness a battle between Kings firsthand."

"I’ve heard it said that the person who awakened the Saint Soul is the Princess of the North Sea Ice Palace. It seems the Boundless Sea King tried to seize the Saint Soul but was thwarted by the North Sea Ice Palace Master."

"Hmm. But it’s strange; the Boundless Sea King had the strength to defeat the Deathless King a thousand years ago; how could he not be a match for the North Sea Ice Palace Master?"

"I have some guesses. Although the Boundless Sea King defeated the Deathless King, he was also severely wounded in that battle. Over the past millennium, he has been recuperating in seclusion, seldom showing himself. It’s hard to say how much his strength has improved. Moreover, a martial artist’s progress doesn’t always correlate with age. Take Luo Feng, for instance. He rose to prominence in just a year, surpassing Jian Wuji."

"That’s true. I’m nearly a hundred years old, and I’m only at the sixth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. Sigh, comparing oneself to others can be quite frustrating."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief; the North Sea Ice Palace Master and Boundless Sea King were evenly matched, which meant Bing Ruolan should be safe and sound.

On the other side, Shui Qingcheng lowered her voice and spoke to the senior members of the Golden Palace:

"Although the Boundless Sea King and the North Sea Ice Palace Master didn’t achieve victory, this matter hasn’t ended. The Boundless Sea King has stated that he intends to wipe out the entire North Sea Ice Palace clan. His temperament is always no-nonsense. From now on, it seems there will be no end until one side is destroyed between the Boundless Sea King and the North Sea Ice Palace."

"Hmph, as long as the Boundless Sea King lives, he will remain a scourge," Tu Wanshan frowned and said.

The senior members of the Golden Palace also nodded silently.

The Boundless Sea King is a killer by nature who does things without reason. This time it’s the North Sea Ice Palace; next time, it could very well be the Canglang Dynasty that suffers misfortune. The Canglang Dynasty does not have a master like Bing Wunian.

Shui Qingcheng nodded slowly, "There’s something else. The battle between the two affected many people. I made some inquiries: more than ten Yuan Sea Realm martial artists were injured or killed. True Yuan Realm and Spiritual Rotation Realm martial artists are uncountable. The king of the Canglang Dynasty suffered severe injuries and may not live long. This matter is far-reaching, and you all should prepare for the worst."

Upon hearing Shui Qingcheng’s words, the crowd’s hearts instantly sank.

A battle between two kings is significant and could reverberate across all five domains.

"Are you okay?"

Luo Feng sat down beside Lin Hongyi and asked.

Lin Hongyi shook her head, "I’m fine."

"You startled me just now," Luo Feng exhaled.

A subtle blush appeared on Lin Hongyi’s face, yet she clenched her fists tightly, her eyes emitting a cold glare, and she gritted her teeth, "Someday, I will kill the Boundless Sea King to avenge my parents and the entire Lin Family!"

Luo Feng said, "Count me in when the time comes."

"You?"

Lin Hongyi was taken aback, glanced at Luo Feng, and immediately shook her head: "This matter is no trivial one, with lives hanging in the balance. You have no relation to this; you should best stay out of it."

"I fear it’s not that simple..."

Luo Feng murmured softly.

Shui Qingcheng’s words were spoken in a low voice earlier, but he had captured them clearly.

Since the Boundless Sea King intends to eradicate the North Sea Ice Palace clan, the matter involves him. Moreover, the Boundless Sea King has the map of the Heaven’s Gate that he needs...

In any case, this person must be killed.

Woo woo woo...

The cold wind howled, and as the night deepened, the sea breeze grew increasingly fierce.

"Look quickly, what is that!"

Suddenly, an exclamation sounded from the edge of the cliff.

Luo Feng and Lin Hongyi exchanged glances, their figures flashing, and quickly dashed over.

At this moment, others were also gathering at the edge of the cliff, their eyes gazing toward the distant sea.

On the pitch-black sea surface, fierce winds raged, and surging waves like angry dragons roiled incessantly, their massive roar akin to thunder.

Amid the wild waves, faintly visible were several enormous shadows surrounding a pile of debris, weaving in and out, with sword Qi and saber light occasionally shooting skyward, splitting the water curtain.

The enormous shadows were monstrous beasts, and amidst the debris, stood dozens of people.

Their clothes varied in color; all of them were martial artists of the jianghu who had come to Group Dragon Island to watch the New Dragon List Tournament.

As the waves surged, a black giant python covered in scales the size of face basins emerged from the water, its serpent tail over ten meters thick slashing out like a blade.

Boom!

The debris pile spanning several hundred meters was directly split in two by the serpent tail, several martial artists thrown into the air and swallowed whole by the giant python.

"Ah!"

"We’re doomed, doomed!"

"Give it all! If I’m going to die, I’ll drag one down with me!"

"Kill!"

The people on the debris, faces pale, desperately circulated their Yuan Qi, unleashing their killer moves toward the nearby sea surface to fend off approaching demon beasts.

"It’s a Dragon Boat. There are people still alive, let’s rescue them!"

Though still far away, Luo Feng’s soul power had already perceived the situation clearly. Shouting, he pierced through the light screen, shooting forward.

"Let’s go too!"

"Go!"

Disciples of the Golden Palace and some heroes of the jianghu also performed Qinggong, breaking through the air, following closely behind Luo Feng.

In an instant, they traversed several dozen miles, when suddenly with a loud roar, three shadows lunged simultaneously toward a piece of debris, the overwhelming demon Qi surged skyward, intensifying the wind and waves several folds. The debris tossed relentlessly among the waves, seemingly ready to capsize at any moment.

"Spring Breeze-as-Heart-Wills Saber!"

Without hesitation, Luo Feng unsheathed the Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, transforming into a fierce flame vortex, shooting forward.

To slay three demon beasts simultaneously, only the Spring Breeze-as-Heart-Wills Saber with its adaptable transformations was most suitable.

The Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber’s speed was incredibly fast, yet silent, pulling a stunning trajectory in the void, piercing into the ocean, slicing through the three shadows beneath the water surface.

Psssh! Psssh! Psssh!

The three shadows suddenly froze, then blood columns shot skyward, and the entire sea surface was instantly drenched in a torrential blood rain.

(Happy Children’s Day to everyone! ^_^)
