Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 62: A Third Layer Beast

Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...

A party of more than a hundred people flew across the vast blue sea.

They look very eye-catching.

Of course, with the vastness of the ocean and the number of people who went to the ocean also not being considered large, the group still didn't meet other cultivators that often.

A thousand, two thousand, or even three thousand people might be considered a lot if they all gathered together, but in this vast ocean, they were basically no different from grains of sand.

However, even though they rarely encountered other cultivators, they encountered wild beast hordes quite often along their journey.

Their enormous numbers naturally attracted a great deal of beast attention.

In certain areas, they would always encounter hordes of wild beasts that far outnumbered them.

Being in the ocean, these wild beasts consist naturally of sea animals. Starting from fish, crabs, squid, and even snakes can be found.

Each of those beasts also possessed an enormous body. When they huddled together, they actually looked like a series of mountains over the ocean.

Even though each of the people in Krinn's party possessed the power to destroy a mountain, seeing the sight of many mountain-sized beasts was still too shocking for those young people. It was because they had never seen the vast outside world.

However, among the many hordes of wild beasts they encountered, almost all of them immediately ran to the depths of the sea when they saw their party.

There is nothing strange about that.

While those wild beasts had enormous bodies, most of them, however, only had cultivation bases at the True Spiritual stage.

With a hundred more Life and Death stage auras emitting from Krinn's party, they would still run away even if they didn't want to run. Their will could not overcome their fear because of the terror they felt from Krinn's party.

Of course, that's only a large part of them.

Several groups of wild beasts that had a Life and Death stage leading them didn't just run away. They might not dare to attack rashly, but they were still watching closely.

For such a beast horde, Alu and the others just passed by without even looking at them. Sometimes, some people who were itching for the fight would also unleash an attack or two to scare off the wild beasts watching them.

Their attacks might still not be enough to scare off a beast that possessed the power of the Life and Death stage, but True Spiritual stage beasts, they immediately ran away when they saw the attacks.

In this seaside region, Krinn's group can basically move around freely. They were like imperial soldiers passing through the countryside.

Their situation is very different from that of a small group of only a few people.

For these groups, they will immediately be chased by wild beasts if they meet. Many of them even turned back to the mainland.

...

The location of the dragon gate was clearly very far from the mainland. Even after nearly an hour of flying, they had not seen any sign of them arriving at the dragon gate.

According to some, it might take them another hour before they arrived at the dragon gate.

Since they needed to assemble beforehand, their departure was a bit late compared to the other groups.

....

In the sea region that was farther away, the beasts were getting stronger and stronger.

Every beast horde they encountered, would have at least ten beasts with Life and Death stage strength.

Even though they were still far less numerous than Krinn's group, they didn't have any fear like the beast horde in the seaside area.

When they saw Krinn's group, they immediately jumped out of the sea.

Even though they were sea creatures, with their cultivation, they could still live on land and fly in the air.

Even when Krinn's group raised their flying altitude to ten thousand kilometers above the sea, those sea beasts were still chasing them upwards.

An immediate battle erupted the moment they met.

Of course, with the number of Krinn's group, they could easily take down the beasts that were blocking them.

The savage stars could only unleash a few hits before they were sent back into the sea.

Even a beast with a Life and Death stage second layer cultivation could not last long.

Each second-tier faction heir could take them down with one strike.

...

"Be careful, a strong creature is approaching."

While the people were still rejoicing with their winning streak, Krinn who was in front suddenly shouted. Krinn's shout sounded loud enough to make people suddenly silent.

Krinn has always looked really relaxed so far. For him to suddenly warn them out loud, the people knew the enemy they were going to fight next must be really very strong.

Boom...

Sure enough, just after Krinn shouted, the sea below them suddenly erupted as if a volcano had erupted beneath it.

The people were immediately alert, and as they looked down, they saw a colossal creature coming out of the sea.

The first thing they saw was its head. It is actually the head of a snake. It's just that, the snake they saw this time had two horns on its head. And the head itself looked so large that it could be juxtaposed against a small mountain.

Hisss...

The snake hissed.

After hissing, the snake then lunged upwards.

In an instant, its long body was revealed in the eyes of the people.

To their surprise, the snake actually had a pair of wings on its upper body.

When the snake flew through the air, even though its body was still a snake's body, people who saw it would feel as if they were looking at a dragon.

"Oh my lady, is this still a snake? Why do I feel like I saw a dragon." Someone shouted in horror.

"You idiot, there are no dragons in this world." The others answered.

Of course, their words were because they lacked insight.

They had never seen a snake with wings and horns like that. In the Holy Light continent, snakes would only look like snakes no matter how strong they were.

Something that looks different immediately scares them off silly.

"Take it easy, it's just a snake. It has horns and wings because it gains a little spirituality. It's in the process of evolving into a spiritual monster." Finally, someone with some insight spoke.

That person's words instantly relieved people's tension.

But people grew tense again when they heard someone say the snake's cultivation.

"Don't let your guard down, this is indeed only a snake, but his cultivation is already at the third layer of the Life and Death stage."

Right after those words, other words suddenly answered.

"So what if it is in the third layer, this father is still not afraid." The person spoke in an arrogant tone.

Whooss...

Before anyone could digest that person's words, they saw someone lunging at the snake that was flying towards them.

Wow...

The people were shocked when they saw someone daring to attack alone.

But when they saw clearly who was attacking, they were speechless.

Arlo!

Boom...

Like a volcano, Arlo's body erupted with boundless flames.

Whooss...

Arlo's speed immediately increased dramatically. He looked like a meteor falling from the sky.

Hisss....

The snake hissed once more when it saw someone daring to come to it. Its cold eyes stared at Arlo with murderous intent. It then flapped its wings, and in an instant, its speed also increased drastically.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Arlo didn't look scared. Instead, he burst out laughing.

With their speed, they traveled thousands of kilometers in just a moment.

The moment they met, they collided immediately, causing space to shake.

Hua...

A colossal figure was suddenly pushed downwards, making people's eyes widen.

Arlo deserves to be ranked fourteenth. Taking advantage of his position on top of the snake, he managed to push the snake down in their first clash.

Hisss...

The snake looked very surprised at the loss. It didn't expect its massive body to be pushed down by a creature it could barely see because it was too small.

"Die..."

Arlo did not waste his superiority.

Seeing the snake that was still trying to stabilize its position in the air, he attacked once again.

This time he didn't hit head-on, but attacked with his fire.

Brussss...

The flames flared towards the snake, and in just an instant, the enormous snake's body was already engulfed by the flames.

If the flames engulfed the mountain, it could easily turn the mountain to ashes.

However, when people saw the snake in the flames, they couldn't help but be surprised because they saw that the snake actually still looked completely intact.

And they even saw the snake starting to move in the flames. It was seen flapping its wings, and after that, the snake immediately jumped out of the flames.

"Alright everyone, let's attack it too. This snake has great life force. Killing it won't be as easy as you can imagine." Krinn suddenly shouted.
