Soul Emperor Martial God

Xiao Yi and his group kept venturing deeper.

After traveling dozens of miles, the number of One-eyed Demon Fish greatly increased.

Often in the hundreds.

The frequency of encounters with Xiao Yi and his group also intensified.

No less than dozens of times.

Most importantly, the bodies of the One-eyed Demon Fish began to grow larger, and their strength had also reached the Earth Origin Third Layer and above.

This time, the attacks were no longer Black Water Poison Arrows.

They had turned into small water columns.

If the Protective Primordial Power of people like the Meteor Sword Master were to be hit, it would disperse immediately.

"Don't be careless," Xiao Yi advised again.

They continued to dive deeper.

When the group had traveled within a hundred-mile range,

a type of demon beast with a human body and a snake tail rapidly emerged from the surface of the sea.

Nearly a hundred of them surrounded Xiao Yi and his group.

"Human-faced Sea Demon," Xiao Yi stated blandly.

The Human-faced Sea Demon was one of the ancient Abyss Demon Beasts from Ancient Times.

The upper body was indistinguishable from that of a human, their hands wielding two venomous blades condensed from the deep sea's potent black water, extremely powerful.

Their lower body was that of a snake's tail, allowing them to move swiftly through the water and even glide on land.

With an utterly dark complexion, they looked fiercely brutal.

It was said that during the Ancient Times, these demon beasts learned a great deal of combat skills from Human Martial Artists.

"These demon beasts look even uglier, why are all the creatures here so weird?" Zhou Yueyao asked puzzledly.

Xiao Yi responded solemnly, "The Endless Black Sea, bottomless as it is, needs no further discussion."

"The demon beasts here have lived here for years, unseen by the sun, dwelling in the darkness."

"Added to that, the black water here is highly toxic."

"Such harsh conditions have caused the demon beasts here to appear ferocious and even twisted."

"But without a doubt, the demon beasts here are all quite formidable."

The conditions in the Endless Black Sea were extremely harsh.

Moreover, once the power of Heaven and Earth Martial Arts had collapsed and the space had shattered, the environment had grown even more severe.

Such an abyss had, over millions of years, contained countless terrifying demon beasts, unknown to all.

At this moment, the hundred Human-faced Sea Demons had already launched their attack on Xiao Yi and the others.

Of course, Xiao Yi, Bai Bingxue, and the others had yet to make a move.

This group of Human-faced Sea Demons, merely having Sixth Layer Cultivation in Earth Origin, matched well with the cultivation of people like the Meteor Sword Master.

This was a good combat experience for them.

The battle commenced.

Dozens of Sword Masters, fighting against the hundred Human-faced Sea Demons, were not at a disadvantage at all.

Each Sword Master, being a Sword Dao Genius, had a strong ability to fight above their level.

Suddenly, with a hiss,

one of the Human-faced Sea Demons, wielding a venomous blade, managed to shatter Zhou Yueyao's Protective Primordial Power in one strike.

Without a doubt, these venomous blades formed from potent black water had a terrifying corrosive effect.

Fortunately, Zhou Yueyao reacted quickly, retaliating with a sword strike and repelling the Human-faced Sea Demon.

The battle lasted for several minutes, and after a while, the dozen Sword Masters had completely gained the upper hand.

Xiao Yi, watching from the side, nodded inwardly, "The Sword Technique is not bad."

These demon beasts all had the ability to control water.

The venomous blades condensed by the Human-faced Sea Demons even contained a hint of Sword Dao.

However, the natural talents of these demon beasts were too poor.

An hour later, the battle came to an end.

The hundred Human-faced Sea Demons were all slain by the Meteor Sword Master and others.

The group collected the Demon Beast Cores and continued onward.

After traveling another five hundred miles,

the group encountered a type of demon beast called the Black Sea Poison Scorpion.

The strength of the Black Sea Poison Scorpion was around Earth Origin Ninth Layer.

Their appearance was similar to scorpion demon beasts, except their method of attack was mainly the sting of the tail.

That tail sting was as swift as a gust of wind, resembling constantly thrusting sharp spears.

Xiao Yi and the others did not make a move.

A dozen Sword Masters circled and killed it.

But Xiao Yi's brows furrowed slightly, noticing that the tail sting attack of the Black Sea Poison Scorpion contained a hint of 'Spear Dao'.

The group ventured deeper again, walking on water.

Along the way, they encountered the Black Sea Poison Scorpion over a hundred times.

As they entered the thousand-mile range,

"Be careful," Xiao Yi suddenly stopped.

"Demon beasts all have a strong territorial consciousness."

"The deeper you go, the stronger the demon beasts."

"A thousand-mile range is just a boundary, beyond which the types of demon beasts that appear are completely different."

Xiao Yi had just finished speaking when, from beneath the Black Sea, a huge creature suddenly burst upward, stirring up black water that filled the sky.

"Seal," Bai Bingxue commanded in a low voice.

A blast of Cold Frost shot from her hands.

The black water in the sky instantly froze into ice.

The next second, several more waves of black water, accompanied by a hissing sound, struck them.

Everyone suddenly felt a numbness under their feet.

"Lightning?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly and said, "It seems we are dealing with a Black Sea Thunder Eel."

Black Sea Thunder Eel, a seventh-level demon beast, had the strength around the First and Second Layer of Heavenly Origin.

It was massive and had the abilities to control water and thunder.

Its true combat power was probably even stronger.

However, the next second, a Sword Shadow flashed by.

The entire Black Sea Thunder Eel was instantly dismembered.

The one who made the move was Lingg Yu.

Half a year ago, at the Ice Edge Conference, Lingg Yu and others had already reached the Peak of Heavenly Origin Third Layer.

Now, half a year later, after half a year of dedicated cultivation in the Sect.

Bai Bingxue, Lingg Yu, and Zhong Wuyou all had increased their Cultivation by two layers.

They had now reached the Heavenly Origin Fifth Layer.

Ye Ming, who was only at the Peak of Heavenly Origin First Layer during the Ice Edge Conference, had now reached the Peak of Heavenly Origin Third Layer.

As the group ventured deeper, they reached a range of fifteen hundred miles.

Black Sea Thunder Eels started to appear in groups.

Of course, they were easily slain by the group.

An hour later, the group reached a range of two thousand miles.

Now, gusts of black wind were blowing.

The ocean surface was tumultuous.

Under the gusts of black wind, visibility for the group didn't exceed a hundred meters.

Xiao Yi and the others were relatively calm.

Zhou Yueyao, Meteor Sword Master, and others faced such a bizarre situation with apprehension.

In such an endless sea, vast and boundless, these dozen people were just drifting alone on the ocean surface.

The scene was indeed somewhat horrifying.

"Several hundred meters away, there is a dense presence," Xiao Yi said gravely.

Although the visibility was low due to the black wind,

Xiao Yi could still sense situations from afar.

Sure enough, not long after, numerous black shadows emerged from the black wind, dense and numbering in the hundreds.

"Demon Shadow Monster," Xiao Yi's brow furrowed tighter than before.

Demon Shadow Monster, with strength around the Heavenly Origin Fifth Layer.

Top half, indistinguishable from a human; bottom half, akin to a horse with four legs.

Each hand wielding a black long spear.

Their four-legged speed was extremely fast.

Looking closely, there was a fish-like pattern on their feet.

Whoosh... Hundreds of Demon Shadow Monsters suddenly attacked with astonishing speed.

"So fast," Xiao Yi's pupils constricted.

Hundreds of Demon Shadow Monsters charged in formation, their momentum formidable.

"Break," Xiao Yi made his first move, sending out a wave of Sword Qi.

The fierce Sword Qi instantly broke their formation.

Following that, Bai Bingxue and the others could take over.

But, just then, countless black shadows continued to emerge from the sea, dense and numbering not less than a thousand.

"Human-faced Sea Demon?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Nearly a thousand Sea Demons surrounded Xiao Yi and the others instantly, without moving, but just opening their mouths screechingly.

A succession of piercing sound waves continuously surged forth.

"It hurts," several Sword Masters cried out in pain while covering their ears.

"Soundwave attacks?" Xiao Yi was slightly shocked, then his expression suddenly changed.

"A… Formation?"

Xiao Yi's face was horrified, a group of demon beasts actually using a Formation?

...

The second update.
