Chapter 385: The Serpent Deity’s Great Hidden Treasure Stash, Sealed Within The Depths Of The Sea
“Now die!”
The Serpent Deity let out a low growl, and the currents inside that water prison suddenly turned into numerous invisible Torrential Manacles, tying Chu Kuangren up.
After that, the Serpent Deity immediately dashed towards him.
Since it possessed incredible physical strength, even a mountain would instantly crumble upon the impact of that attack. Chu Kuangren being blown into pieces earlier was the best example of what would happen next.
At this time, a layer of forcefield suddenly appeared around Chu Kuangren’s body.
Now that most of the torrential force was isolated, sword qi emanated from his body and destroyed all the incoming Torrential Manacles. Then, Chu Kuangren’s figure turned into a stream of light and evaded the Serpent Deity’s attack.
The Serpent Deity was slightly surprised. “You can break free from the Torrential Manacle?!”
With its cultivation level, even a Great Sage would not be able to escape his Torrential Manacle so easily.
Yet despite not being a Sage, Chu Kuangren could break free easily!
“Wait, that forcefield around your body…”
Only then did the Serpent Deity notice something when it looked at the forcefield surrounding Chu Kuangren’s body. A sudden realization flashed across its eyes. “So that’s how you did it. I can’t believe you have an item that can isolate the torrential force from you.”
Other than surprised, the Serpent Deity was slightly annoyed as well.
The reason it formed that water prison was to drag Chu Kuangren into an underwater battle in hopes that his opponent’s combat strength would be much weaker. This was the only method he could deal with his opponent easily.
However, it did not expect Chu Kuangren to have an item that could isolate torrential forces from him.
“Don’t worry. There are plenty more things I can do that will still shock you.”
Chu Kuangren sneered.
The item which helped isolated the torrential force from his body was indeed the Water Evasion Pearl — an item that he once used when he wreaked havoc upon the Scaled Tribe.
Armed with the Descendant Self Sword, he then activated the Three Great Daoist Physiques and started a new round in the battle against the Serpent Deity. Chu Kuangren relied on his Immortal Body’s ability and faced the Serpent Deity head-on, not fearing his opponent’s attacks at all.
Emperor Techniques like the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique, Tathagata Rebirth Mantra, Heart Piercing Finger, and Raging Gods Fist were all unleashed at the Serpent Deity in one go.
“That’s just too scary. How can a mere cultivator like him, who isn’t a Sage, know so many Emperor Techniques? Is he a monster or something?”
“How does he do it?”
“Monster!”
“And that undying body of his as well. What the hell is that?”
The Chieftains of the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands were stunned silent as they watched from the air.
They knew Chu Kuangren was powerful, but they had never expected his strength to be at such a terrifying level.
To unleash one Emperor Technique one after another, even an Emperor would not have so many Emperor Techniques on him, let alone a Sage!
“This guy is truly formidable. No wonder the whole Firmament Star was shocked. However, no matter how powerful he is, he’ll only fall in defeat before the Serpent Deity!”
The talon-shaped nose old man remarked.
The other Chieftains agreed while they continued watching the battle.
From what they could see, the Serpent Deity could defend against all Chu Kuangren’s attacks with its impenetrable body, no matter what Emperor Techniques the latter unleashed.
All the Serpent Deity suffered was a few minor injuries at most.
Being able to rule over the seas for so many years and worshipped by the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands as their deity, the Serpent Deity was undoubtedly powerful.
The Serpent Deity could be considered one of the strongest beings on the Firmament Star.
Even the ones from the unknown lands would not dare to provoke it.
“Even you, Chu Kuangren, will end up as the Serpent Deity’s food. You will pay the price for your arrogance!”
The talon-shaped nose old man glared at Chu Kuangren.
…
Inside the water prison.
The heated battle between Chu Kuangren and the Serpent Deity was still ongoing.
One possessed an incredibly strong physical body and could take on the might of an Emperor Technique without any major issues.
On the other hand, another possessed an Immortal Body, which enabled him to attack without fear.
“This guy’s combat strength is remarkable. Ever since ancient times, I have never heard of anyone as powerful as him.”
“He’s already so powerful despite being below the level of a Sage. Can you imagine how strong he’ll become when he becomes a Sage in the future? If the Emperors don’t interfere, will this person stand undefeated in the world?!”
“He’s terrifying!” The Serpent Deity stared at Chu Kuangren as a chilling and never before seen killing intent appeared in its yellow eyes.
It would be bad if an opponent like Chu Kuangren was not dealt with soon.
Even the Serpent Deity could not help but grow fearful upon imagining how powerful its opponent would become in the future.
“This Serpent Deity is harder to deal with than the Nine-Headed Snakelet.”
Chu Kuangren frowned as he looked at the Serpent Deity.
With its physical body dead for many years, the Nine-Headed Snakelet did not even possess half its true strength when it was awakened. However, the current Serpent Deity was a Sage Ruler through and through.
Countless ideas ran through his mind.
‘Should I use the Soul Reaper?’
‘No, I can’t. My opponent is a Sage Ruler whose soul is stronger than mine. Besides, I haven’t hurt it enough yet, so its spiritual state is still at its peak.’
If he used the Soul Reaper, Chu Kuangren’s spiritual power would be completely depleted before he could pull his opponent’s soul out.
‘What about the Four Seasons Sword Formation?’
‘Hmmm… I don’t think it’ll work as well. Based on my current strength, even the highest form of the Four Seasons Sword Formation will not be able to hurt it.’
‘Besides, the torrential force within the water prison will also hinder the sword formation, preventing it from exerting its full power.’
“Puny human, your Immortal Body is really fascinating. But I can tell that despite your inability to die, your current strength is still limited!”
“I shall seal you in the depths of the ocean and make you my prisoner. After that, I shall take my own sweet time to come up with a method to kill you!”
A large amount of Daoist Rhymes surged on the Serpent Deity as it said that.
The water prison was then dragged into the ocean, and at the same time, an immense force dragged Chu Kuangren into the depths of the sea too!
Not long after, the Serpent Deity had dragged Chu Kuangren dozens of kilometers under the sea. They soon arrived at a huge trench.
Numerous sparkles of light flickered in that huge trench. They were all crystals and Supreme Elixirs that emanated a dense spiritual power.
There were countless treasures hidden under the sea!
“Shocking, right?”
“The sea is far wider and more mysterious than you guys can imagine. Even the Scaled Tribe who claim to be the overlords of the sea have barely scratched the surface of what lies beneath the oceans. However, I’m not the same as them, for I am the Serpent Deity!!”
“I’m the strongest being in the sea. After all, the sea is my backyard. I can go anywhere I wish and take anything I wish. These items before you are my collection of treasures that I’ve gathered from all corners of the sea!”
“There are corals that can help hasten a person’s cultivation progress, seashells that can block divine lightning, Supreme Elixirs that can help one breakthrough to another cultivation level…”
The Serpent Deity excitedly showed off its collection of treasures to Chu Kuangren.
He was not worried that Chu Kuangren would take these treasures at all. From his perspective, Chu Kuangren was already his prisoner.
“The Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands worship you because of this collection of treasures I suppose.” Chu Kuangren looked at the treasures in the trench and uttered.
“That’s right, and in return, they bring me sacrificial offerings to feast on. Whoever performs the best will be given a treasure from my collection that I no longer desire to keep. The reason the Thirty-Six Oceanic Islands are so powerful today is all because of me!”
The Serpent Deity laughed as he dragged Chu Kuangren deeper into the trench.
It did not take them long before they arrived at the deepest part of the trench.
Placed over there was a cage similar to a birdcage. It had strange black rune symbols swirling around it.
“This cage is something that I obtained thousands of years ago. I suppose it’s an item that someone powerful left behind as it contains an incredibly terrifying sealing ability. Even a Sage Ruler can only accept their fate of being locked in there!”
“Puny human, you shall stay inside there forever!”
The Serpent Deity laughed and channeled an overbearing torrential force to push Chu Kuangren into that cage.
