Chapter 1186: Chapter 413: Battle—Tier 4 Sea Beast! [Monthly Pass Requested]
After using this escape technique three times in a row, the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint started to feel overwhelmed. He looked at Ji Yuan, who was still calmly pursuing him, and finally couldn’t help but send a plea for mercy:
"Friend, Senior, truly we have no grievances between us. There’s no need to be so relentless. If... if I have indeed offended you somehow, I am willing to offer my apologies."
His address changed from "Friend" to "Senior."
Referring to himself also changed from "this seat" to "this old man."
When fighting is futile, bowing one’s head becomes the strategy.
"An apology?"
Ji Yuan thought to himself that he had already beaten him to this extent. If he didn’t kill him now... wouldn’t that be like letting a tiger return to the mountain?
Besides, they’ve come so far out, the Divine Sense of those other Core Formation Cultivators certainly can’t detect them anymore, and he could use some other means now.
"Alright."
Ji Yuan relented.
The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint saw there was a chance to negotiate and immediately perked up, "I wonder, friend..."
His words were cut short as a white light flashed before his eyes, and the figure that was previously nearly a mile away suddenly appeared right in front of him.
Moreover, with a casual strike, he broke through the Protective Spirit Light of his barrier...
"An apology? Then use your head to apologize."
Such a short distance, facing someone like himself in the late-stage Muscle Forging Realm alone, and yet daring to relax—wasn’t that courting death?
After Ji Yuan punched through the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint’s Protective Spirit Light, he immediately pinched the Saint’s face, lifting him right off the ground.
"You..."
The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint still wanted to speak, but Ji Yuan suddenly exerted force and crushed his skull.
The truth that villains die from talking too much, Ji Yuan understands better than anyone.
He himself had encountered quite a few cultivators who perished because they talked too much.
So naturally, he would never commit such a mistake.
He looked at the corpse of the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, whose features were now pinched together, and thought that it could still be useful.
Ah, due to the Chaotic Burial Mound, in the end, I held back. Otherwise, crushing his head into a mist of blood—how satisfying that would be?
But doing so would be to waste the corpse of a Peak of Core Formation Cultivator.
For the upgradeable Chaotic Burial Mound, it would be a great loss.
But just as Ji Yuan stowed away this somewhat intact Immortal Material and also put away the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint’s Storage Bag, he unexpectedly found the Saint’s Yin Soul unexpectedly materialized!
Didn’t even need to summon it.
This meant the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint definitely cultivated some Divine Soul escape technique!
Ji Yuan had encountered people like this before.
Fortunately, the Thousand Souls Banner in his possession was the nemesis of such souls.
Thus, the moment the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint’s soul emerged, Ji Yuan wasn’t surprised and wasted no time, withdrawing a Black Banner from the Storage Bag.
"Not good!"
In the state of a Yin Soul, the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint sensed the threat emanating from the Black Banner in Ji Yuan’s hand. He also didn’t hesitate for a moment, pulling up the black cloak behind him to cover himself, transforming into a streak of black light that plunged swiftly into the seabed.
Ji Yuan didn’t react immediately.
Yet soon, when Ji Yuan planned to send his Divine Sense into the seabed to search for the Yin Soul of the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, suddenly there was an upheaval from the sea.
"Roar——"
An extremely fierce roar emanated from beneath the waves, and the entire water area within a hundred miles started to churn as if there was a ferocious Demon Beast below.
Ji Yuan stood mid-air, his Divine Sense surged forth.
Very quickly, he perceives the real situation beneath the sea.
A Sea Beast!
A Tier Four Early Stage Sea Beast!
Four-legged Thousand-footed Fish!
Its general outline wasn’t much different from an octopus in Ji Yuan’s impression. Its entire body was crimson, with thousands of tentacles covered densely with suckers. Currently, this sea beast was nestled in the seabed, waving its thousands of tentacles, stirring up the whole marine area.
"But how could there be a Tier Four Sea Beast, still so close to human activity areas? If there was indeed a Tier Four Sea Beast, I should have discovered it sooner."
As Ji Yuan pondered, his Divine Sense continued to examine the Four-legged Thousand-footed Fish.
Soon, he found something unusual on the sea beast.
Although this Tier Four Sea Beast appeared alive, with a seemingly normal aura comparable to any sea beast, Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense probe revealed its eyes were dull, and the shadows reflected within them were... the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint!
This Tier Four Sea Beast was actually him?!
Or did he manipulate the corpse of this Tier Four Sea Beast?
Either way, Ji Yuan knew that today couldn’t end peacefully.
"Damn it, this kind of old hand at the peak of Core Formation, truly possesses a myriad of methods!"
Aside from his own reflections, the cold, angry voice of the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint also reverberated in the marine expanse, "Boy, warned you, yet you insist on not listening. Now that it’s come to this, you should just die!"
As soon as those words left his mouth, the already churning sea became more tumultuous, boiling up.
As though matched by the phenomenon of the Earth Dragon Flipping.
The entire seabed emitted a "rumbling" sound.
Ji Yuan then felt a surge of energy from the seabed locking on him. Before he could act, countless enormous tentacles had already emerged from the sea within a hundred-mile radius, stirring up storms while transforming the surrounding area into a jungle of tentacles.
In the skies above, from the moment that Tier Four Sea Beast appeared, rain had already begun to pour heavily.
Lightning scattered wildly.
Looking at this spectacle, running... no need to run.
