Chapter 507: Three Commanding Generals!

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Equipped with the inspector’s token, Hao Ren immediately knew that it was a level 8 demon beast.

A level 8 demon beast was equivalent to a Qian-level dragon cultivator. Due to the demon beast’s innate techniques and strong body, it was more powerful than an ordinary Qian-level cultivator.

Like cultivators, the demon beasts had a more difficult time cultivating when they were on higher levels. Level 1 demon beasts were equivalent to Zhen-level cultivators, level 2 demon beasts were equal to Dui-level cultivators, and level 6, 7, and 8 demon beasts corresponded to Xun-level, Kun-level, and Qian-level cultivators respectively.

However, just like the dragon cultivators who had hard times reaching Kun-level and Qian-level, the demon beasts would encounter a bottleneck at level 6, and it was challenging for them to reach level 7 and level 8. If they wanted to reach level 10 to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation, it was even harder.

The level 8 demon beasts would have already activated their intelligence, and they weren’t dull compared with dragon cultivators. Therefore, they were stronger than ordinary low-tie Qian-level cultivators.

Hua… The Third Prince of South Ocean released a wave of white frost from his long spear.

Hao Ren looked at him and realized that he had reached mid-tier Kun-level. It was clear that he wasn’t as young as he looked and should be at least 300 to 400 years old.

Meanwhile, the Second Duke of North Ocean released three black blade energies from his machete and instantly cut down a wave of low-leveled demon beasts.

Even though his low-tier Qian-level strength couldn’t be compared to Zhao Kuo’s when the latter was at his peak, his strength was still great, and his agile movements, as well as his fluttering black silk robe, gave him a grand presence.

“The Third Prince and the Second Duke are the Commanding Generals of South Ocean and North Ocean respectively,” Premier Xia leaned to Hao Ren and said in a low voice.

“Ok.” Hao Ren nodded. He was the Commanding General of East Ocean while the other two were Commanding Generals of South Ocean and North Ocean. Obviously, everyone here had the same hidden agenda.

In the blink of an eye, the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean had dashed to the side of the level 8 demon beast and attacked it with combined forces.

The Third Prince’s long spear techniques were way more powerful than Zeng Yitao’s. In his white clothes, he moved like a white dragon even though he was in his human form.

The small demon beasts nearby were instantly frozen once his long spear touched them. Then, with one sweep of his long spear, he shattered them into pieces.

The Second Duke’s black machete was mighty in his hand, and any demon beasts close to him had their heads cut off without seeing where the black flash had come from.

The incredible thing about the Second Duke was that he rushed into a herd of demon beasts and killed them swiftly, but his silk robe was free from any bloodstains.

Hao Ren had never dealt with South Ocean and North Ocean before, and now he believed that they were quite powerful.

Bang!

The Third Prince’s long spear and the Second Duke’s machete stabbed toward the eyes of the level 8 demon beast at the same time.

The demon beast’s two claws lashed out to block their weapons before retreating hurriedly.

By joining forces, the two commanding generals forced back the level 8 demon beast!

The morale of the soldiers from South Ocean and North Ocean was greatly boosted when they saw this scene.

“Here I come!”

Liu Yi slashed out his green dragon crescent blade and dashed toward the level 8 demon beast as well.

However, the demon beast lifted one long black leg, and the claws on the end of the leg hit Liu Yi’s chest, breaking his saber and sending him flying for hundreds of meters.

Boom! At this critical moment, Hao Ren dashed forward like a white light beam.

He lightly reached out his right hand and caught Liu Yi before tossing him toward the black-armored cavalries of East Ocean.

“Thank you, Commanding General!” Liu Yi cupped his hand before he was tossed out.

Without Hao Ren, he would have landed in the herd of demon beasts which would probably kill him. The level 8 demon beast had intelligence and had purposefully thrown Liu Yi toward the demon beasts.

Bang! Hao Ren’s sword energies shot out abruptly.

Seeing Hao Ren entering the battle, the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean quickened their attacks on the level 8 demon beast.

Since the East Ocean Dragon Clan was the farthest from the West Ocean Dragon Palace, the troops of East Ocean were the last to arrive, and South Ocean and North Ocean weren’t going to let the East Ocean Dragon Clan take the credit from them!

Roar! The level 8 demon beast spat out black ink, and a stinky smell spread out with it.

Its eight long legs moved abruptly and caught the Third Prince and the Second Duke by surprise. Its claws left deep wounds on their bodies and sent them flying backward.

The level 8 demon beast was equivalent to a Qian-level cultivator, but their overall combat ability far surpassed Qian-level cultivators since their skin and thick shell were like their dharma treasures!

Hao Ren who had been rushing toward the demon beast helped these two commanding generals by supporting their backs with two sword energies, moving them steadily toward the troops behind them.

Then, the 320 sword energies hovering around Hao Ren instantly divided into 640 sword energies, half were real while the other half were fake!

Only Hao Ren knew which were real and which were fake!

“Useless show-off!” The Third Prince of South Ocean snorted as he was now surrounded by his soldiers.

Swoosh! The sword energies suddenly condensed into a huge white sword and pierced into the demon beast’s waist.

“Retreat, and I’ll spare your life,” Hao Ren said lightly.

Having no goal to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm, the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean didn’t mind killing a lot of demon beasts.

However, Hao Ren didn’t like killing and knew that this level 8 demon beast attacked the West Ocean Dragon Palace just to revenge for its many disciples and followers that had been killed by West Ocean.

Hao Ren’s sword energies contained hundun godly lightning which could break the skin and shells of demon beasts. Now that his sword energies entered this level 8 demon beast’s body, if the lightning energy exploded, the demon beast would die or be seriously injured, possibly dropping in realms.

Instantly, the low-leveled demon beasts and the troops of the four ocean dragon clans stopped fighting, each retreating hundreds of meters and watching Hao Ren and the level 8 demon beast in alarm.

They were astonished that the Commanding General of East Ocean could talk directly to the level 8 demon beast and threaten it.

All the soldiers looked at Hao Ren who was hovering in front of the level 8 demon beast as if they were looking at a god.

Boom! Boom… The level 8 demon beast waved its eight long legs and retreated more than 100 meters.

Having reached level 8, it could get the chance to charge at the Transformation Realm, and it didn’t want to drop in realms or even die here just to gain some satisfaction from retaliation.

Hao Ren’s sword energy had cut open its thick shell and entered its body, ready to explode at any moment like a massive bomb.

Seeing the level 8 demon beast retreating, the low-leveled demon beasts all began to back off as well.

Like a smooth and round light ball, Hao Ren’s sword energy shot out from the hot in the thick shell of the level 8 demon beast.

Hua! Hua… The light ball immediately split into 640 sword energies before spreading over the battlefield. One could imagine what would happen if this many sword energies exploded in the body of the demon beast…

Looking at the sword energies and then at the necklace around Hao Ren’s neck, horror appeared in the level 8 demon beast’s eyes, and it went back into the Demon Sea.

Boom… The weak demon beasts followed suit and fled back into the Demon Sea.

Usually, the demon kings who had passed the heavenly tribulations would stay in the Demon Sea to expand their territory instead of attacking the four ocean dragon clans. The level 9 and level 10 demon beasts also wouldn’t run around since they were preparing to enter the Transformation Realm.

It meant that level 8 demon beasts were the highest-leveled demon beasts that might attack the dragon clans. Now with the level 8 demon beast gone, the lower-leveled demon beasts had no reason to stay behind.

“Herald General Liu Yi, organize the troops!” Hao Ren turned to look at the dumbfounded Liu Yi and called out.

“Yes, Commanding General!” Liu Yi, in his tattered armor, stood up from the ground and called out, “East Ocean soldiers, line up!”

Excited, he felt lucky that his abilities were recognized by Hao Ren and thought, “I’ll see who dares to mess with East Ocean in the future!’

Hao Ren withdrew his sword energies and returned to the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.

The battlefield at the bottom of the ocean was in a mess, but most of the casualties belonged to West Ocean while the troops of the other three dragon clans were mostly intact.

“Gongzi Hao, you are extremely courageous and powerful…” Seeing Hao Ren’s return, Premier Xia immediately walked over to him.

“Ok, no flatteries.” Hao Ren waved his hand. In fact, he had been trying to spot the weakness of the level 8 demon beast when he watched the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean fight it.

This spider-form demon beast was covered with a thick shell and had only one tiny opening at its belly for moving around. Ordinary dharma treasures and weapons couldn’t pierce through, but Hao Ren’s sword energies could shrink and contained the hundun godly lightning. Therefore, he was able to take the opportunity and defeated the demon beast.

Everyone only saw Hao Ren’s powerful strength, but they didn’t understand his thinking process.

Although Zhao Yanzi didn’t dare to watch the battle, she saw how Hao Ren defeated the level 8 demon beast. She felt extremely content as she peeked at Hao Ren.

After all, others couldn’t do anything to the demon beast, but Hao Ren forced the powerful-looking demon beast back with only one attack.

Her admiration for Hao Ren increased greatly.

“Gongzi Hao, the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean seem to have poisonous wounds. Do you think we should go over and have a look?” Elder Sun reminded Hao Ren.

Hao Ren looked down on the battlefield and saw that Liu Yi had gathered the 50,000 black-armored soldiers and was doing the counting.

The soldiers of West Ocean were in a mess, and some of them even cried in each other’s arms. Although this was their home base, they suffered the highest casualties.

In contrast, the troops of South Ocean and North Ocean stood neatly; they lost some soldiers but basically remained intact.

The Third Prince of South Ocean sat in his white jade chariot with a big wound on his shoulder. The Second Duke of North Ocean leaned against his black panther while blood flew out from the wound in his knee.

With wounds at different positions, their faces were pale.

The accompanying elders were busy applying elixirs on their wounds, but it seemed like the effects were little.

Hua… The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting landed beside the Third Prince of South Ocean.

“Third Prince.” Premier Xia cupped his hands at the white-clothed Third Prince.

The Third Prince looked at Premier Xia and then at Hao Ren without saying a word.

His face looked pale as the poison was traveling all over his body from his wound, threatening his life. That was why he showed no intent in greeting the Premier of East Ocean warmly.

“This is a level 4 detox pill, a gift from our Fuma.” Premier Xia walked forward with an elixir pill in his hand.
