Chapter 205: Marine Patrol Yaksha

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A huge phoenix in the form of flame lay dormant at the seafloor where the Kunwu Divine Tree once stood, burning slowly and steadily. The nearby seawater receded crazily, creating a vacuum of at least several kilometers deep in the sea. And the seawater surrounding the vacuum was boiling rapidly, producing a large amount of white steams and bubbles, obscuring all eyes.

Although Duan Yue and the others were untouched by the flames that surrounded them, the immense heat had almost cooked them through. Each of them desperately produced energy barriers to fend off the heatwave, but their bodies still gradually turned red.

The fire had alerted not only the sovereign of the South Sea, but also terrified all the creatures within ten thousand miles. A force that made their hearts palpitate was rippling across the seawater, forcing them to swim further away.

No one knew how long the flames had been burning for. Duan Yue and the others were almost toasted; their lips cracked with blood, and their skins parched. Each one of them was expressionless while holding on an energy barrier to fend off the heatwave. However, their barriers seemed to grow smaller, and they seemed to be at the end of their tether.

“If this continues, we will surely die. How long has the fire been burning for? A few days? What the hell is that lad doing? He didn’t burn himself to death, did he?”

Looking at the seal on his chest closed up once again, Duan Yue breathed a deep sigh and stepped back while Tie Fan shouted and stepped up as he took his place to support the barrier.

Tie Pin was panting, and he looked extremely weak. “Holy…The Lord Holy Herald will be fine.”

Tie Ling chimed in, “Yes. Sir Duan, if anything did happen to the Lord Holy Herald, these flames would have burned through the barriers.”

Duan Yue found that makes sense. However, if the fire kept burning like this, they would still die sooner or later. After Yunxiao killed Wei Xi, he had not made a sound and could not be contacted.

“The fire has abated!” Suddenly, Tie Ling cried out in great joy, “Look, the fire has abated!”

The flames outside the barrier began to recede at a rate visible to the naked eyes, and its range shrunk rapidly, as if the burning was completed.

Tie Fan breathed a long sigh of relief, but he did not dare to release the barrier. After all, the heatwave out there was still extremely strong, and he feared that once he released the barrier, the few of them would be cooked through instantly.

The flames that blotted out the world shrunk rapidly like the retreating waves, revealing a blackened land. The Kunwu Divine Tree was long gone, leaving behind not even a trace, as if it had never been there before.

After the fire retreated, Yunxiao’s figure gradually emerged, and when those phoenix flames retreated to his side, they transformed into a beautiful fire phoenix and danced around him while crying incessantly. Then, he performed a hand seal and produced an ancient-looking, tadpole-like golden character in his palm. Attracted by it, the fire phoenix flew into his forehead.

“Who are you? How dare you spy on me in the void! Show yourself!” Yunxiao opened his eyes abruptly, in which two flames danced as he looked at a spot in the void. Meanwhile, the pressure of a True Spirited Fire Phoenix spread out, as if to lock down this part of the world.

“Please calm down, my lord!”

Over the vacuum, a rift suddenly appeared, and from inside came walking out a dark-skinned sea man. His eyes were filled with shock and dubious look as he glanced at Yunxiao down below and said loudly, “May I know who is the almighty expert showing his divine power in the South Sea?”

Yunxiao was startled when he saw the man, but he put on a disdainful look and sneered, “So it is you, the Marine Patrol Yaksha! Get out of here!”

He was a peak Martial Sovereign in his previous life, so he naturally had an awe-inspiring manner. Moreover, the phoenix flame was still twitching in his body, emanating a pressure of the Divine realm that struck fear into the heart of anyone who sensed it.

The Yaksha swallowed hard. In his eyes, Yunxiao was only a Martial Lord, but the manner and the pressure unintentionally revealed from him were enough to make his soul shiver. ‘His strength of a Martial Lord is definitely an illusion. Just this pressure and the destructive divine flame just now are enough to prove that he is far stronger than me. And he even knows I’m the Marine Patrol Yaksha. His Lordship also told me to never offend this man…’

He breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Please tell me your name, my lord, so I can answer my Master when I return.”

When he said that, he found that his palms were full of cold sweat.

Yunxiao narrowed his eyes, and his glance gradually turned cold. “If you want to know who I am, let Qin Ming come here and ask himself. If you don’t scram within three breaths, I’ll make you stay here forever!” The flames in his eyes suddenly transformed into two phoenixes and looked as if they were about to fly out.

There was a sudden shiver in the Marine Patrol Yaksha’s soul. He hurriedly waved a hand and ripped a rift in the void, stepping into it. These almighty experts were all figures with eccentric characters, and it was very common for them to kill someone upon the slightest displeasure. If he offended this man and was killed, Lord Sea King might not avenge him either.

At the thought of that, he immediately fled into the rift and said, “Please calm down, my lord! I’ll report back to the Lord Sea King right now.”

The Qin Ming mentioned by Yunxiao just now was none other than the King of the South Sea!

As soon as the Yaksha was gone, the rift in the void closed up and vanished, as if it had never appeared before.

Yunxiao felt a sudden relief, and he was already covered in a cold sweat. He did not expect that helping the Kunwu Divine Tree to be reborn would cause such a stir, which alerted even that person in the Crystal Palace of the South Sea. Luckily, the Phoenix True Flame had not returned to his soul and was still twitching in his body, and the aura he emanated was actually that of the Ten Worlds realm contained in the divine flame. Otherwise, he was not sure if he could scare the Yaksha away.

He quickly calmed himself down and made the divine flame return to the depths of his soul, which gradually quieted down.

Meanwhile, cracks began to appear across his glazed body and his skin began to break apart. But, Yunxiao’s face was strangely calm, not showing a trace of fear but slightly smiling.

BANG!

Eventually, all his skin broke and shattered, turning into streams of light and vanishing in the void. After that, a layer of harsh, sparkling white light appeared over his skin, flashing like diamonds and making him seem to be standing in a light source that could not be looked straight at!

“Tyrant Body! I’ve reached the second level of the Tyrant Body Tempering Technique, Tyrant Body!”

The Tyrant Body Tempering Technique was divided into three levels: the Glazed Body, the Tyrant Body, and the Indestructible Body!

Looking at the light emitting from his body and sensing the surging power in his flesh, Yunxiao was overjoyed. With this fleshly body alone and without even using energy, he could fight head-on against a Martial Lord now! Moreover, after absorbing a large amount of the Kunwu Divine Tree’s Spirit Qi and being baked by the divine fire, he had already reached the realm of one-star Martial Lords!

“Haha! A Martial Lord of the Four Quadrants realm, I finally came back little by little!” Yunxiao said to himself in great joy. Suddenly, he arched an eyebrow as he found several people flying toward him in the distance.

“Hah! What happened to you? How did you make yourselves look like you’ve been roasted?”

Yunxiao was taken aback when he saw the few people. All of them were red and black from top to bottom. Apart from their eyeballs, which were still white, they did not look like who they were.

Everyone was staring at him with bitter eyes while Duan Yue said angrily, “It’s all your fault! But we, need to leave as soon as possible after all the stir you’ve created! Look around the vacuum! When the seawater pours over later, an extremely huge whirlpool will definitely be formed, and there’s no way we can escape it with our strength!”

Yunxiao looked up at those gloomy waters. Although the Phoenix True Flame was gone, they did not fall but still floated overhead, and were giving off an increasingly strong sense of oppression like the sign that heaven was about to fall and earth collapse.

“You’re right, let’s run now! If the seawater pours in, not only Sir Duan and me, even you who live in the water may not survive.”

“Holy…Lord Holy Herald,” Tie Pin, who was almost completely dried up, suddenly asked, “was it Lord Marine Patrol Yaksha from the Crystal Palace who appeared just now?” His voice was extremely hoarse.

“Oh, why? Yes, that fellow is the Marine Patrol Yaksha.” Yunxiao asked in surprise, “We are at a critical juncture, so why do you still have the mood to ask this?”

There had been speculation in their hearts, but upon hearing Yunxiao’s confirmation, the few Firefish people trembled with fear and their eyes filled with terror.

In a trembling voice, Tie Pin said, “Yo-your Excellency, rumor has it that Lord Marine Patrol Yaksha is an expert of the Nine Heavens realm! Moreover, the Yaksha clan is an existence just second to the imperial clan in the Four Seas, and they are an S-grade existence! But…but…he was scared away by you?”

“What! A Martial Sovereign!” Duan Yue was terrified as well, and he cried out, “No wonder he can rip the void and travel in it! Lad, I can’t believe you are so bold, scaring off a Martial Sovereign with the Phoenix True Flame! If I had not seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it!”

Although he was taken aback, he quickly figured out the reason behind it. ‘It must be the divine fire’s power that scared the Martial Sovereign off. Otherwise, with his current cultivation base of a Martial Lord, he could never withstand even a finger from that expert.’

“Ugh? Martial…Martial Lord???” At the thought of that, Duan Yue’s pupils constricted and his eyes burst with a light as he stared at Yunxiao. “You, you, you…” He swallowed hard and squeaked like a duck with its neck held by someone, “Martial… Martial Lord! I can’t believe you’ve stepped over a major realm and advanced into a Martial Lord?! Fu*k, fu*k, fu*k, am I dreaming now? Hit me now, I want to see if I’m dreaming!”
