Omnipotent Sage

Within a short span of ten days, the four Young Masters’ land had been attacked and the Sea Area was in chaos. The demons who had escaped the Dragon Abyss Prison were not here to snatch territory but rather to take revenge.

They ravaged one scene after another, with the sole purpose of obliterating the Rolling Dragon King’s military force until it could not be consolidated.

“This move is damn good. The Rolling Dragon King’s subordinates have been handicapped within ten days. By concentrating their best powers, they destroy something that was already in a state of ruin. Seems like the Four Lords of Heaven have tricked up their sleeves!” Zhou Bao thought silently to himself. But come to think of it again, the powers locked within Dragon Abyss Prison was extraordinary. Even if the Rolling Dragon King could assemble the strongest defense it would still be powerless. Plus, due to the suddenness of the attack, he did not even have time to assemble the powers at all.

However, Zhou Bao did not think that the ending of this matter would be so unsuspenseful. The Rolling Dragon King had a huge advantage—celestial devices. He had ruled the Sea Area for so many years and the Sea Area was filled with treasures of heaven and earth. His Dragon Palace was defended even more fiercely. Disregarding the Four Lords of Heaven, even the forty associates of the Lords would not be able to break his Dragon Palace’s defense. As for the unfortunate souls from the Dragon Abyss Prison, they did not have many magic weapons in their hands. After they had been attacked by the Rolling Dragon King, the magic weapons in their hands had all been confiscated. This was their greatest advantage and also the reason why they had attacked the Rolling Dragon King. Although they did not come from wealthy family backgrounds like the Rolling Dragon King, they were not poor people. Consolidating all their family’s wealth together, they could still stand a chance to weaken the Rolling Dragon King’s power.

Within ten days, the situation at the Rolling Dragon King’s Sea Area had changed completely. The situation was rather stable and with the Rolling Dragon King locked in his Dragon Palace, he began to understand the politics at his Sea Area. Although war was raging below, it no longer had any influence on the big picture. But to face the Dragon Palace which was as solid as a turtle’s shell, the four Lords of Heaven were also stuck. If they were not able to break through the Dragon Palace’s defense, they would not be able to kill the Rolling Dragon King, retrieve the celestial devices that was once theirs and take revenge truly. The situation began to look tricky.

This kind of stalemate was not advantageous to the demons who broke away from the Dragon Abyss Prison. In the Sea Area, there was not only the Rolling Dragon King. There were also the other four great Dragon Kings and the 18 Dragon-bone regions. If these five powers allied together, it would be sufficient to suppress them all. The longer they were suppressed, they more disadvantageous it was to them.

Zhou Bao also got the message he wanted from this stalemate.

Master Jin Hua sought refuge at the 18 Dragon-bone Regions!

From a certain angle, it could be said that Master Jin Hua would be one of the great beneficiaries if the Dragon Abyss Prison caused trouble. The Rolling Dragon King would find it hard to protect himself. Even if he could do that, he would definitely have to lose his ruling power over his section of the Sea Area. Hence Master Jin Hua, who had changed his loyalties, no longer had to be scared of the Rolling Dragon King’s revenge. As for the 18 Dragon-bone Regions, they did not receive Master Jin Hua openly out of fear of agitating the Rolling Dragon King. But now, the Rolling Dragon King’s pneuma was heavily damaged and no longer posed a threat to the 18 Dragon-bone Regions. Naturally, their movements became more ostentatious. They also grew more courageous and received Master Jin Hua. No matter what, to receive a True Immortal was a sign of power in the power politics of the Sea Area. In fact, it was not only the 18 Dragon-bone Regions that made this move. The other four Dragon Kings were also on the move and started receiving the Dragon King’s subordinates to boost their own power. In this way, even if the Rolling Dragon King could escape, he no longer would have the power to fight with the other four kings.

“Since the Rolling Dragon King loves his third son so much, then that means he must be in the Dragon Place now. With the Dragon Palace’s protection as strong as a turtle’s shell, the Four Lords of Heaven were stuck. It would still be fruitless if I went. But as for Master Jin Hua who has just entered the 18 Dragon-bone Regions, even if they gave him a high-ranking position, he still would not have much power. Plus, he is an outsider; he would definitely be ostracized by the original powers there after he has just entered. This is an opportunity!” After considering the losses and gains, Zhou Bao decided to first seek revenge at Master Jin Hua at the 18 Dragon-bone Regions before considering if he should attack the Third Prince.

The 18 Dragon-bone Regions was an extremely odd presence in the Five-dragon Regions. Its power and boundaries in the Five-dragon regions were lesser than any of the subordinates in the Five-dragon Regions. In fact, in this boundless Sea Area, the 18 Dragon-bone Regions’ territory was at a mountain range at the bottom of the sea. The Tusk Island that grew from it was the first city and also the only city among the eighteen cities that is above the sea. It could be said that all the eighteen cities were actually a gigantic underwater mountain range under the Tusk Island. It was also a Sea Area with a radius that extended thousands of miles.

This gigantic mountain range was divided into eighteen layers with eighteen masters.

The history of the 18 Dragon-bone regions was much longer than the Five-dragon Regions’. Before Wang Cheng became this piece of Sea Area’s ruler, the 18 Dragon-bone Region had already existed. After so many years, the area it controlled neither grew nor decreased at all. And the ruler of the 18 Dragon-bone Regions, the Region Master, was even more mysterious. According to hearsay, this Region Master was a Genuine Immortal of the Lord of Heaven Realm, just like the Five-dragon Regions’ Wang Cheng. But he never showed himself. Now among the 18 regions, even the most unqualified people have not seen him. Needless to say, so goes for the people under the Region Master. Even the 18 Dragon-bone Regions’ masters did not know the origins of this man, much less seen this man. in this Five-dragon Regions, no one knows about the Region Master except the Five-dragon’s King Wang Cheng.

However, the 18 Dragon-bone Regions only looked after their own piece of land. They did not expand it. Hence, they did not bring much pressure to the Sea Area as compared to the Five-dragon Regions’ King. This was also the reason why this plot of Sea Area was named as the Five-dragon Region.

Zhou Bao’s current goal was the 18 Dragon-bone Regions.

Master Jin Hua sought refuge at the 18 Dragon-bone Regions but he had not seen the Region Master.

He was a Four-tribulation True Immortal who had attained the standard of the eighteen region’s region master. To seek refuge at the 18 Dragon-bone Regions, being a region master there was not a problem. However, the 18 Dragon-bone Regions had enough region masters already. Hence, he could only be received as an assistant, such as Ming Haijun’s assistant that would advise on the diplomacy between themselves and the 18 Dragon-bone Regions.

No matter how displeased he was in his heart, he had to obey the orders in someone else’s home.

The chaos in the Five-dragon Regions, especially that in the Rolling Dragon King’s Sea Area, was already a source of trouble. However, the 18 Dragon-bone regions did not interfere and did not have any intentions to interfere. They had focused all their energies on Yu Nantian. The fairy weapons on Yu Nantian were their true targets. Yu Nantian wanted to seize the opportunity to escape while the Sea Area was in chaos while the 18 Dragon-bone Regions also wanted to seize this opportunity to catch their target amidst the chaos. This was not a secret in the 18 Dragon-bone regions and the newly deployed Master Jin Hua was this pursuit’s direct manager.

“What a difficult situation! Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road.”

Zhou Bao curled up and hid amid some corals. A vividly colored fish that swam past only treated him like an odd looking rock.

The 18 Dragon-bone Regions never interfered with the Five-dragon Regions’ matters. Its subordinates power also did not exceed the boundaries of the 18 Dragon-bone Regions. However, just this time for Yu Nantian’s fairy weapons, Ming Haijun activated all hands on deck. It was not only Ming Haijun; even Region Master Lan Shui’er supported the mission fully.

This was Winding Bay, the boundary between the 18 Dragon-bone Regions and the Rolling Dragon King’s Sea Area. With no one guarding it now, it was in an extreme mess. The fellas from the 18 Dragon-bone Region entered the scene, split into a few teams and started searching this piece of Sea Area.

Winding Bay, as its name suggested, had a complicated terrain. The middle of Winding Bay was cut across by a stretch of oceanic trench that was not too long. Occasionally there were one or two hills undulating in the underwater mountain range. The terrain was complex. Finding a hidden Water Mansion here would have been difficult and even more so for a hidden person.

Just like now, Zhou Bao used his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to hide in the corals. Although those demons were searching very thoroughly, they had not been able to trace his tracks.

The leader of the team was Master Jin Hua. His glum face no longer had that trace of light-heartedness that was evident when they first met. Compared to his blithe appearance the previous time, Master Jin Hua’s face now had traces of years and age etched onto them. Zhou Bao could even see that Master Jin Hua had lost weight. His gaze, though, was much sharper. His Four-tribulation True Immortal’s strength and spiritual mind seemed to scan the surroundings, sharp as lightning. Land extending a radius of a thousand feet away were all seen in his eyes and under the control of his spiritual mind.

“Assistant Region Master, Your Excellency, we have searched the area with a radius of three hundred miles from here. We could not find any traces of Yu Nantian. Take a look, do you think…!”

“Continue searching, he is definitely here. He can’t run away!” Master Jin Hua abruptly cut into a Shrimp-headed Demon’s report. His expression appeared grim and his gaze was almost like a razor, sharp with murderous intent that gave one the chills.

“Since he has run to Winding Bay, then he can’t run away. There is only one exit at Winding Bay. We have already sealed off the exit very tightly. We did not see him run out. That means he must be at Winding Bay!”

“But—!”

“Order your people to search carefully. Search inch by inch and do not leave out even a bit of territory. Yes, call the second team into the oceanic trench. Since there isn’t much up here, then, he must be hiding in the oceanic trench. That celestial device of his has an evasive spirit. However, to activate it would not be easy. Plus he is injured. I have a feeling; as long as we put in a bit more effort, we can find him. Do you understand?!”

“Yes, I understand!” the Shrimp-headed Demon did not dare to say more. He once again ran out, ordering his subordinates to search all corners meticulously. This time was more thorough than before.

“Interesting. Since Master Jin Hua is so sure that Yu Nantian is at Winding Bay, then it must be eighty percent true that he is here!” Zhou Bao thought briefly and observed Master Jin Hua’s subordinates carefully. The subordinates he had brought obviously weren’t of a very high level. Besides Master Jin Hua who is of a Four-tribulation True Immortal status, the strongest one there was only a Genuine Immortal. There wasn’t even a Venerable. The numbers weren’t big too. There were only about fifty to sixty people and most of the demons were of Level Eight or Nine Cultivation. Those that have surpassed the Mysterious Realm had only about ten people. With this kind of strength, they could defeat a dynasty at the Seven-deity Regions; but placed in the Sea Area, especially with someone like Master Jin Hua, the assistant region master at 18 Dragon-bone Regions, it did seem a bit inadequate.

“Master Jin Hua doesn’t seem to be too pleased with his place at 18 Dragon-bone Regions. He only brought these many people to kill Yu Nantian. Seems like I have a chance! However…!”
