"Ah—!"

Such bizarre circumstances left the demons of the Water Mansion trembling in fear. Whether it was the Clam Girl, the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals, or the Sea Patrol Yaksha, all had faces full of terror, helplessly watching the eyes growing on their bodies.

This thing appeared without warning. Apart from those in the Divine Travel Realm who could resist, even those in the Celestial Tribulation Realm grew one or two eyes on their bodies.

The eyeballs spun rapidly, itching unbearably. Unable to resist, a Sea Demon reached to scratch it, and instantly there was a burst of black water. Upon contact with the skin, it began rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Little Demons in the Enlightenment Realm found it hardest to resist, their screams echoed as they flailed to their deaths, their bodies floating upward.

Some Divine Travel Realm demons glanced at the sea surface and seemed to realize something, shouting frantically, "Close your eyes, don't look at the red light!"

But they discovered it too late. In a short time, the vast majority of the Aquatic Race showed the same symptoms.

The Old Turtle Demon had, of course, realized as well, and exploded with rage, "What a vicious curse, Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch, I'll make you pay!"

Saying this, he shouted to several Mansion Masters nearby, "Form the array, activate the Sea God Hall!"

Mansion Master You and several Great Demons also fumed with anger, and swiftly changed their spells around the Old Turtle Demon.

Buzz!

Within the Water Mansion, the Sea God Hall rumbled loudly, and a massive True Dragon's head fossil rose from the altar.

On the ancient stone walls of the Sea God Hall, cloud patterns emitted light, the Dragon Qi immediately gathered, rushing towards the Dragon Pearl suspended at the top.

In an instant, the Dragon Pearl shone brightly.

Roar!

This time, the ancient and desolate dragon roar could be heard throughout the entire water region, as a gigantic shadow pierced through the sea surface and soared into the sky.

Deer antlers and whiskers, scales and claws flying, amidst its undulations the clouds and mist rolled, revealing itself amidst howling winds.

Roar!

Another dragon roar followed.

All the demons present, even those in the Mahayana Realm, felt their minds go blank, as an ancient desolate aura came directly at them.

Almost instantly, the dragon shadow with its violent aura shot up to the sky, tearing apart the thick black clouds in no time, and a cold and piercing wail echoed in everyone's mind.

The dragon shadow disappeared, the black clouds in the sky faded away, and those many eyes vanished instantly.

Beams of sunlight pierced through the clouds, casting columns of light onto the sea. The wind and waves ceased, leaving a silence.

Within the underwater Water Mansion, the demons watched as the eyes on their bodies gradually disappeared, and they let out a sigh of relief, collapsing to the ground in exhaustion.

On the Sea Eye side, the demons watched in terror, hurriedly retreating, while the faces of over a dozen Mahayana Realm demons showed mixed emotions.

"Hahaha..."

Mansion Master You let out a hearty laugh, "The Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch probably never thought that the return of the Dragon Pearl to the Divine Hall would display such might."

The Yaksha General stared at the dark clouds in the sky with anticipation, "Is the old demon dead?"

"It's not that easy..."

The Old Turtle Demon felt a stab in his heart. Cracks had appeared in several places on the fossilized dragon bones within the Divine Hall.

He glared at a patch of dark cloud on the right, speaking coldly, "Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch, have you realized the power yet? You can't do anything to our Water Mansion, better retreat early to avoid a mistake."

The significantly smaller dark cloud reappeared with many eyes, speaking in a chilling and venomous voice, "Old Turtle, if I leave today, you'll probably attack the Sea Eye another day. Besides, how much strength does your dragon bone have left?"

"Enough to kill you!"

The Old Turtle Demon shouted angrily, then his Divine Sense instantly scanned towards the Divine Hall. Beside him, a Two-headed Snake Demon was also full of anger, "How did the old demon learn about it, and even have information on the Jingjiang Water Mansion... there's a traitor in the Sea God Hall!"

The Old Turtle Demon wore a grim expression, his Divine Sense scanning back and forth within the Stone Hall, while all the serving and guarding demons trembled in fear.

The Old Turtle Demon found nothing after several checks, immediately revealing a vicious glint in his eyes, "Better to kill the wrong than let them go, all must die!"

The cloud patterns in the Sea God Hall lit up again, the pervasive Dragon Qi shuddered, and all the demons were instantly turned to blood mist.

Screech—

At the moment when the Fish Demon guard shattered, a hunk of flesh full of eyes quickly jumped out, but it too was soon disintegrated by the Dragon Qi into a puff of black smoke.

"There really was a spy!"

The Old Turtle Demon was infuriated. Despite being extremely cautious and regularly checking, a traitor had still infiltrated.

"Hehe..."

A gloomy laugh echoed from the sky, those peculiar eyes shifting beneath patches of dark cloud, their whereabouts unpredictable.

"Sea Eye army, listen up, surround the Water Mansion tightly, don't let anything escape. In three days, when my Divine Soul recovers, we shall break through the Water Mansion and seize the Dragon Pearl!"

"As the Demon Monarch commands!"

The Sea Eye Army, seeing the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch unharmed, was instantly revitalized, once again stirring up the dark fog and waves, encircling the Water Mansion airtight.

The hearts of the people in the East Sea Water Mansion went cold. Mansion Master You's eyes flickered uncertainly as he said in a deep voice, "Elder Gui, why don't we break through and take the Dragon Pearl directly to Profound Yin Mountain…"

The Old Turtle Demon's face was grim, his eyes slightly narrowed, "Not wise, Profound Yin Mountain is not far from the Sea Eye. Without the protection of the Sea God Hall, I'm afraid we would be picked off one by one by that old demon halfway."

"Moreover, if we leave, the Water Mansion is likely to be breached immediately, and then the thousands of aquatic creatures… I'm afraid not even one in ten will survive."

All the mansion masters fell silent. Though they were domineering, they each had their own clans and followers. How could they abandon them just like that?

"Then what should we do?"

The Yaksha General's face was somber, "That old demon is already wary. Even if we expend the Dragon Bone, it might not be effective."

The Old Turtle Demon's eyes narrowed slightly, "You stay and guard. I'll be back soon."

With that, his figure instantly vanished and returned to the Sea God Hall. He bent over and coughed a few times, then entered a stone chamber, where a piece of ink jade-like turtle shell suddenly appeared in his hand.

Hesitating for a moment while looking at the turtle shell, the Old Turtle Demon's withered claws began to fumble over it, green demon fire continuously entwining around it.

Soon, a red flame rose from the turtle shell, and within the flame, a pair of indifferent eyes slowly opened.

The Old Turtle Demon's voice had grown much aged, "Sect Leader Chilin, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch is attacking. Our East Sea Water Mansion faces a great calamity, and I am willing to present the entire exploration map of the Underworld, only asking the Spiritual Sect to help relieve the siege."

The eyes within the flame remained indifferent, "The Spiritual Sect does not engage in your disputes."

The Old Turtle Demon was anxious, and said sharply, "If the Water Mansion falls, and the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch unifies the East Sea, do you think he will still allow your Spiritual Sect to roam free?"

"Then let him try!"

A cold snort came from the flame, and then the blood-colored flame gradually shrank.

"Wait..."

The Old Turtle Demon hurriedly shouted, "I have heard that the General's Tomb military advisor has a good relationship with the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch. Aren't you afraid they'll join forces?"

"Military advisor..."

The eyes in the blood-colored flame showed a hint of hesitation, then went silent for a while, "Your two factions have fought for thousands of years, why must there be a final showdown now?"

The Old Turtle Demon was furious, "That Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch is ruthless and brutal, I..."

"Silence!"

A cold snort came from the flame, "If you tell another lie, this matter will be over."

The Old Turtle Demon's face was unpleasant, hesitated for a long time, and sighed deeply, "Sect Leader Chilin, this matter is related to Profound Yin Mountain..."

...

Buzz!

Zhang Kui slowly opened his eyes, and in the darkness, a purple Sword Light suddenly ignited.

It was still in the image of the Lu Li Sword. This sword had been forged by Zhu Sheng, nourished by countless Evil Qi, and refined with the Flying Sword Skill, long since transformed into a formless sword.

At this moment, the sword's shadow was like purple jade, yet the center was dense as ink, exuding a heart-pounding aura. Occasional starlike specks of Sword Light radiated outward.

Zhang Kui felt a chill on his scalp. The more he looked at this place, the more it seemed like something had fallen from the sky to form it. Could this thing carry some kind of dangerous radiation?

Forget it, as long as it's strong enough.

Thinking this, Zhang Kui glanced at the purple Evil Light fog sea, which had only slightly diminished. He had refined quite a bit over these days.

What on earth was down below?

Though curious, Zhang Kui instinctively sensed a deadly danger, like a raging hot fire. He could feel the warmth from the outside, but if he delved deeper, it would be a different story entirely.

With that thought, he unhesitatingly wielded his Sword Light and flew straight towards the sea surface.

This world was boundless with secrets, better to have more strength before exploring further.

Boom!

On the sea surface, a band of purple light burst forth, swirling once before flying straight towards the East Sea Water Mansion.

As he drew closer, Zhang Kui halted.

Something was off...

The sea surface was strangely calm, yet there was clearly a multitude of powerful auras ahead.

Could it be that both sides had ceased hostilities and reconciled?

Thinking it over, Zhang Kui concealed himself and dove underwater, quickly approaching.

However, he hadn't gone far when he saw dense black clouds rolling in from the west. Black smoke billowed, eerie winds howled, and countless soldiers with decaying bodies loomed dimly in view, along with gigantic bronze war chariots and ghost horse cavalry with eyes aflame charging across the sea surface...

"General's Tomb?!"

Zhang Kui was first taken aback, then bared a sinister grin, "This play, seems it's gotten out of hand... good!"
