"Don't act rashly."
Tang Yunqing said to Ye Luyao in his mind, "Bai Zeyan just said that in the fog of the Sea of Skeletons, there can't be any powerhouses above the seventh rank. Our side is no good, and neither should theirs. And since the strongest combat power is limited to the seventh rank, if we're careful, we can definitely get through this predicament. He's right. I never truly trusted them. They have extraordinary means, and we have our trump cards."
Tang Yunqing's words made Ye Luyao feel very at ease, and at the same time, he felt a little self-blame. After all, it was he who kept saying he wanted to trust Bai Zeyan and the Hailongwei, leading to the current situation.
But he also knew that now wasn't the time to feel guilty, so he suppressed this emotion and thought for a moment, "Their trump card should be the bones of the Sea Dragon Clan that were lost to the Dragon Court at the beginning. Although they only look like young sea dragons of the fourth or fifth rank, I always feel that their strength is much more than that."
"Of course, Bai Zeyan and the others know our record from last month, so they wouldn't be so stupid," Tang Yunqing said.
Last month, they defeated and killed many fifth- and sixth-level water tribes north of Wanshui City, and even escaped under the protection of a seventh-level water tribe three times in a row.
Furthermore, he was currently surrounded by fifty law enforcers and one hundred and fifty sages.
With them, a seventh-level existence was no match. "Then what's their trump card?"
Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao couldn't figure it out, so they prepared to test it in battle.
The waters of Wanshui sank, the law enforcers and sages fell into the water, and thirty-three huge skeletal sea dragons surrounded them, a terrifying sight.
Seeing the skeletal sea dragons gather, Tang Yunqing also gave orders to the law enforcers and sages in his mind, and the battle immediately began.
Tang Yunqing, as the team's battle commander, was surrounded by everyone in the center. The code on his right palm gleamed, and the first-page flipping ability, "Spell Technique," the second-page flipping ability, "Transcendental Perception," the third-page flipping ability, "Mind Sharing," and the fourth-page flipping ability, "Life Transfer," were all activated. At the same time, Tang Yunqing appeared as the "God-given Code," frantically absorbing the surrounding dragon power and pouring it into Ye Luyao. When Ye Luyao received the dragon power infused by Tang Yunqing, his entire being instantly at its peak. He saw that with a wave of his left hand, the seawater within a hundred meters of the center froze. The law enforcers and sages took this opportunity to swim onto the ice, ready to stand firm and fight Bai Zeyan and the others.
The enormous amount of energy consumed by freezing the sea was unimaginable, but since Tang Yunqing arrived in the Sea of Skeletons, he discovered that the dragon power in the air here was so rich that it was almost as viscous as a liquid city, and was easily absorbed by his divine idol.
If not for this, he wouldn't have been able to simultaneously use the ability to flip pages one, two, three, and four, and simultaneously draw dragon power from the air to instill Ye Luyao. From using Tang Yunqing's ability to flip pages one, two, three, and four, to summoning the divinely bestowed icon to instill Ye Luyao with divine power, and finally condensing it into a piece of ice, it seemed like a long time, but in reality, it was only the blink of an eye. Bai Zeyan and the others didn't have time to react at all. By the time they did, the brilliance of the palms of many law enforcers and sages had already poured down upon them. Ye Luyao stepped on the ice with both feet, and drew her hand into the air, revealing a giant bow made of ice.
"Ice Dragon Bow!"
Freezing with dragon power was a natural ability that Ye Luyao had awakened from her inherited memories since then.
The ice condensed by dragon power, whether in hardness or coldness, far surpassed ordinary ice, and its destructive power was beyond imagination. I saw them draw their Ice Dragon Bows, condense Ice Dragon Arrows, and shoot at Bai Zeyan and the Sea Dragon Skeleton without hesitation. The Ice Dragon Arrows pierced the seawater and instantly pierced Bai Zeyan's body. It was like a shadow, the void was powerless. However, when they shot at the Sea Dragon Skeleton, a deafening explosion rang out, setting off waves formed by the shattered ice layer. At the same time, Bai Zeyan and the others also launched a counterattack. However, when they saw them swing their massive Skeleton Dragon bodies, the seawater of the Sea of Skeletons surged towards Tang Yunqing and the others as if the world had turned upside down. Water arrows and dragon spears were faintly visible in the seawater, sharp and cold.
At the same time, they swiftly swam towards Tang Yunqing and the others. Between the opening and closing of the Dragon Kiss, they silently spewed out a stream of air, extremely low, but strangely, it didn't freeze the seawater.
"Dragon Breath!"
This was one of the Sea Dragon Clan's domestic skills.
After the battle began, almost in the blink of an eye, many sages and law enforcers died at the hands of Bai Zeyan and the others. However, Bai Zeyan and the others weren't much better off. Under the fire of two hundred life enforcers and sages, two sea dragon skeletons were instantly reduced to powder. As the sea dragon skeletons "died," the Hidden Dragon Guards, who had been lurking in the sea like shadows, also lost their vitality and died. The deaths of the Hidden Dragon Guards didn't make Tang Yunqing happy, because these were the lives of the sages and law enforcers. These people lived their lives, and they weren't the drowned people of Weilan City who could be resurrected. They died, but they truly died, and they died for him. This made Tang Yunqing a little depressed. But he soon recovered. He had a more important thing to do: defeat Bai Zeyan's more than thirty Hidden Dragon Guards.
The battle that followed was relatively simple, and the two sides were almost evenly matched.
Tang Yunqing was unwilling to risk the lives of the law enforcers and sages for the lives of Bai Zeyan and the other Hidden Dragon Guardians, but this was completely beyond his control. If he didn't order the law enforcers and sages to fight with all their might against the skeletal sea dragon, the casualties would be even more severe.
Time passed slowly.
More than forty law enforcers and sages had died, and only nineteen sea dragon skeletons remained. On the surface, it seemed like Bai Zeyan was at a loss. After all, the sea dragon skeletons were relatively strong, but to Tang Yunqing, every time another law enforcer and sage died, he was at a loss, and losing was pointless.
Judging from Bai Zeyan's attitude, he didn't care at all about the deaths of the sea dragon skeletons and their companions. He only wanted to consume the law enforcers and sages. What was his true trump card? Tang Yunqing was confused and could only secretly exercise caution.
In the blink of an eye, it was already half an hour later.
There were less than a hundred law enforcers and sages left, and the sea dragon skeleton was the last one left.
The one controlled by Bai Zeyan.
Although he was the last one left, Bai Zeyan didn't flee.
He faced Tang Yunqing and the others alone, but it gave him a feeling of extreme danger.
At this moment, although there were still nearly a hundred law enforcers and sages around him, after the previous battle, his divine power had been exhausted, and Tang Yunqing could no longer draw divine power from them, and he could no longer maintain the ability to flip pages one, two, three, and four continuously.
If another accident occurred, he could only rely on Ye Luyao and himself.
And the accident happened as expected.
Just as Tang Yunqing, Ye Luyao, and the others were about to kill Bai Zeyan, the seawater suddenly surged violently, and large bones flew out from the depths of the seabed. With a "pop," they were absorbed into the sea dragon skeleton controlled by Bai Zeyan.
Each bone increased the skeletal sea dragon's momentum by a point. How could Tang Yunqing watch Bai Zeyan grow stronger and stronger? Even when he ordered fire attacks on it, whether it was the law enforcers, the sages, him, or Ye Luyao, all of their attacks landed on the skeletal sea dragon, blocked by the external skeleton and unable to cause much damage.
Tang Yunqing's expression gradually became serious.
Ye Luyao, beside him, turned to look at him and said, "This must be a demonic method."
"Transforming death into life—this is truly a terrifying method." Tang Yunqing couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and then said, "According to the current trend, Bai Zeyan's strength should reach the peak of the seventh rank. If our personnel are intact and our divine power is abundant, not only can we defeat him, but we can at least guarantee his immortality. But the current situation... It will be difficult for us to defeat him, unless a miracle occurs, or when this fog clears, but who knows when it will disappear?"
"I don't believe in miracles." Hearing this, Ye Luyao looked straight at Tang Yunqing and said, "But I believe in you. After this period of cultivation, you're close to breaking through to the fifth rank. There's only one more chance. I think now is your chance."
"... Is that so?" Tang Yunqing smiled bitterly, not believing himself.
Because the breakthrough of the human race in the Law Domain is different from the Blue Domain, the Sanctuary, and other races. Breaking through in battle? Difficult! Very difficult! But as Ye Luyao said, once he breaks through in battle, the power of a fifth-rank controller, coupled with his own Sea Dragon Ball, perhaps he could truly draw a draw with a peak seventh-rank existence, and no matter how weak he was, he could hold on until the fog cleared.
While Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao were talking, the bones of various races and creatures were attached to Bai Zeyan's body, making his body gradually grow larger, even larger than the sixth brother Ye Luyao, whom Tang Yunqing had seen in the endless blue sea. However, Bai Zeyan's strength was not as good as his sixth brother.
This creature, embedded with countless bones, still looked like a sea dragon, but its body, composed of white, blood, blue, and black bones, was strange and terrifying. It no longer possessed the dignity of the sea dragon race, but rather looked like a demon dragon infected with demonic energy. After the demon dragon took shape, it no longer dived into the sea, but broke through the ice and soared into the air, looking condescendingly at Tang Yunqing, Ye Luyao, and the many law enforcers and sages, with killing intent brimming in its hollow eyes.
I saw it soar into the sky with a silent roar, and the sound waves immediately came with immense force.
Many law enforcers and sages struggled to support it, but soon, most of them flipped to the ground, rolled a few times, and then fell into the sea of skeletons. Only Tang Yunqing and Ye Luyao could stand safely and look at each other.
