Chapter 275

    No, it wasn’t a familiar face, but rather a familiar creature. Back when the sea creatures of the Northern Sea had rebelled, there was a sea creature with armor that could rival a mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator. Did this creature actually make its way to the Southern Sea now?

    Thinking of the peculiarities surrounding this creature, Li Su’s figure moved, and he flew over.

    “Boom!”

    “Stop! I’ve already sounded the conch shell. The Queen will arrive with reinforcements soon.”

    At this moment, the area around the small island had turned into a maelstrom. A multitude of sea creatures were raising massive waves and relentlessly attacking the island. The island’s size was gradually decreasing as a result.

    On the island, many aquatic beings were utilizing their abilities and techniques to put up a desperate defense. Upon closer examination, it was evident that these aquatic beings were mostly women, specifically mermaids. Each mermaid was casting spells with a glowing orb floating above their hands.@@@@

    These were Sunflower Water Pearls. The mermaids were using the Sunflower Water Pearls to create a spherical water barrier around the small island. The water barrier could also draw upon the power of the sea. The sea creatures were relentlessly attacking the water barrier, while the mermaids continuously infused energy into it.

    “Boom!”

    A colossal Azure Dragon Beast appeared in their field of vision, surrounded by numerous sea creatures. The Nascent Soul stage mermaid’s expression shifted.

    “I’ll hold it off, the rest of you, breakthrough!” She was preparing for a life-or-death battle. However, at that moment, the sky was suddenly filled with a dense and radiant rain of light.

    “Boom, boom, boom~”

    Then, without the Azure Dragon Beast even reacting, it was pierced through by this cascade of light. Not only the Azure Dragon Beast but also the area around the mermaids. It was as if a grand meteor shower had taken place. The sea creatures that had previously been relentlessly attacking were completely swept away by this meteor shower.

    As these sea creatures met their demise, they still maintained their fierce appearances, indicating that the attack happened too swiftly for them to react, resulting in their unaware demise. While these creatures possessed power comparable to the Nascent Soul or Golden Core stages, they lacked the vigilance of practitioners at those levels. In the water, they posed only slightly more trouble, but when they ventured onto the sea’s surface, human cultivators of the same level could easily defeat most of them.

    This sudden turn of events left all the mermaids in shock. Shortly afterward, some of them showed signs of relief, as it meant they had been rescued. However, some mermaids remained cautious, not knowing who had intervened.

    From the sky, a radiant golden thread descended and instantly bound the fifth-tier Azure Dragon Beast. The distant sea creatures scattered in all directions, averting the crisis. From the sky, a figure descended. “Human!” The mermaids looked and saw an exceptionally handsome human figure landing on top of the battered Azure Dragon Beast. The human turned out to be Li Su.

    Li Su’s hand moved, and the Immortal Sword sliced through the armor on the Azure Dragon Beast’s body. This Azure Dragon Beast had eluded him before, but this time, Li Su effortlessly subdued it. The armor had seemed incredibly tough back then, but for the current Immortal Sword, it posed no challenge. The current Flying Immortal Sword was already a top-quality treasure. The material of this armor was excellent, and while the Flying Immortal Sword was not primarily known for its sharpness, an ordinary one could penetrate this armor under Li Su’s powerful attack. However, cutting through the armor in its current state was not feasible. It was Li Su’s intentionally crafted Flying Immortal Swords that could cut through the armor. They were not as agile as others but were sharper.

    With a sweep of his divine consciousness, Li Su gained a better understanding of the armor. The craftsmanship used to create this armor was rather ordinary, not exceptionally skilled, but the materials used were of excellent quality. Even high-quality treasures lacking the necessary sharpness would not breach its defense.

    It didn’t seem human-made. Furthermore, these materials gave Li Su the feeling that they had a more oceanic origin. Could it be the Sea Clan? Li Su wondered. If the Sea Clan crafted this armor, he pondered which specific sea territory they might belong to.
