Stronger from Earth

Faced with such an unexpected situation, several Celestial Demons lounged lazily, for them, standing still was never a bad thing.

Whether to hide or take a risk, they had already made their choice for surviving until now.

Ninety-five percent of the creatures who chose to take risks are dead. And those who have been hiding till now, have stumbled to the Celestial Tier, what’s wrong with that?

As an unusual True Immortal, Wang Xuan could roughly grasp the situation there from a distance of a hundred miles, but he couldn’t know the specifics.

Mental Power quietly influenced these Celestial Demons, Wang Xuan hid within their bodies, layering several spaces, wiping his traces clean.

The Great Sea Serpent that was just lounging idly was now boiling with enthusiasm, its whole body itching unbearably: "I seem to sense the breath of the Dragon Race, there must be Direct Lineage of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest battling enemies."

Being a sea serpent, what it most desired was the transformation of its bloodline, everything about the Dragon Race was such a huge temptation to it.

If it could obtain a bit of fortune from the Dragon Race, that would suffice to make it wake up laughing from a dream.

The Emperor Crab nodded repeatedly: "It’s certainly the Dragon Race, it might even be the king’s generals. If the king lays blame on us, we surely won’t escape the sin of neglecting duties."

If other creatures were fighting they could ignore it, but not the Dragon Race, because the overlord of this sea area is the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, their superiors are all of the Dragon Race.

If they mess up, they wouldn’t even be able to keep their claws.

The huge Octopus was the first to act: "In that case, let’s move quickly! Don’t mess up the king’s business."

As for what the business was? They didn’t know, nor did they need to care.

The group of Sea Race creatures sped away, covering a hundred miles in just a few breaths, they quickly reached the battlefield.

The battlefield was in chaos, the water mixed with countless fish carcasses was murky gray, blocking visibility completely, the seafloor mountains were toppled in patches, and the underwater volcanoes spewed lava.

At the center, a Flood Dragon nearly a thousand feet in length lay dead on the seafloor, its Dragon Scales still flickering with light, the intimidating Dragon Might made it seem alive.

But its head had long been separated from its body, falling into a trench several miles away, its vertical pupils unclosed in death.

Several Celestial Demons were dumbfounded: "It really is the Dragon Race."

"Dead! It was killed!"

"In the territory of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, who dares to slay a dragon? Quick, signal! Report it! Report it!"

Being the big flunkey constantly following behind True Dragons, they knew well this Flood Dragon was a direct lineage of pure blood, its death was definitely an earthquake.

Standing deep within multi-layered space, Wang Xuan reached out and grasped, drawing out a strand of breath from that dragon head and wound, tracing the mixed energies back to their source.

In an instant, a Flood Dragon and a Great Sword Immortal’s apparition appeared, followed by two other figures emerging from it.

One was an Evil from the Flood Dragon’s corpse, it had once concealed in the consciousness of this Flood Dragon, orchestrating this slaughter, and finally left gracefully.

"This creature is somewhat like the Six Desires Celestial Demon, but it’s not, presumably his trusted subordinate, or even an offspring."

The other figure emerged from the Great Sword Immortal’s apparition, it hid even deeper, as Wang Xuan could only capture some vague traces.

Yet Wang Xuan was certain, the other party was indeed the Six Desires Celestial Demon, that Half-Step Immortal Creature of the Abyss Realm.

"They self-directed such a play? Truly a good plot."

While Wang Xuan analyzed, bursts of energy fluctuations emanated from hundreds of miles away, stirring surface space constantly, even affecting the Deep Space.

As far as the eye could see, that Sword Immortal from Celestial Sword Mountain who slew the dragon was now battling several True Dragons, the situation was very fierce.

"Caught so quickly? Two True Dragons against a Celestial Tier, the result is destined."

Wang Xuan could foresee the ending: the Sword Immortal from Celestial Sword Mountain being captured, taken to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest for trial, while the mastermind achieved their scheme from it.

"This incident was led by the Alien Race, involving not only the two Immortal Influences of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest and Celestial Sword Mountain, but also the Canglan Realm and Mother Star."

Wang Xuan recalled the Gate of the World that affected his fate, back then there was friction between Celestial Sword Mountain and Immortal Martial Mountain, also involving the shadow of the Alien Race, which led to Chen Qingniu’s father’s death.

Today, unexpectedly the Alien Race used this old trick again, attempting to provoke friction between these two forces.

Wang Xuan infiltrated minds, and several Celestial Demons continued moving forward, soon reaching the new battlefield, facing the True Dragons with excitement and fear.

"It’s the king’s general, the king is right beside directing." Cheating Snake hissed.

As spectators, as witnesses, they watched this battle unfold.

Wang Xuan, however, noticed the subtle anomalies of those True Dragons, had it not been for extracting traces from the dead Flood Dragon just now, he wouldn’t be able to ascertain any abnormality in the opposing party.

"A Star Lord, five Grotto Void-level True Dragons, had become the Flesh Body of the Celestial Demon, their consciousness enslaved while their flesh became a controlled shell."

"No wonder these Celestial Demons couldn’t be found, they all had flesh shells as cover, quite a remarkable trick."

Seeing such a scene, Wang Xuan indeed felt it was incredible, because on Mother Star, to invade the True Spirit and Flesh Body of a Star Lord requires Void-level cultivation.

That means, right before Wang Xuan, stood five Star Lords and one Void-level Alien Race, blatantly active.

"Audacious!" Wang Xuan couldn’t help but admire their boldness, more so their power and wisdom.

Invading a flesh shell isn’t easy, but the rewards are great. But to silently invade and fuse with the flesh shell, leaving no traces, such techniques likely aren’t possessed by True Tier Aliens.

Surely, there’s a big fish behind them, controlling everything, providing shelter and power to these Alien Races.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuan’s heart trembled, if it weren’t for relying on Hong Xuanji, the Immortal, he might worry about becoming a fish crashing into a fishing net.

"They’re setting up, fishing, I must see who the angler is, where their lair is!" Wang Xuan’s expression tightened, revealing intense killing intent.

Not far away, Long Yu looked at the battlefield calmly, instructing: "You two go easy, I want to capture this audacious cultivator alive."

Two True Dragons, their bodies few thousand feet long, moved like a mountain in water, a sword shadow moved between them, sparks flew intensely.

"I am a Sword Cultivator of Celestial Sword Mountain, dare you stop me?" That Sword Cultivator still remained extremely arrogant.

"What about Celestial Sword Mountain? Dare slay our True Dragon’s bloodline, it’s an unpardonable sin!" roared the two True Dragons.

Wang Xuan watched the show from afar, he sensed with Domain power and spatial understanding, instinctively realizing, those two True Dragons’ True Spirits had swapped, their original True Spirits were just a garment, whereas the Sword Cultivator of Celestial Sword Mountain’s True Spirit remained, but quietly influenced by the hidden Celestial Demon.

"This double play is truly magnificent."

Soon, that Sword Cultivator was captured, a group of Sea Race escorted him back to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, hurriedly wishing everyone knew.

Wang Xuan, amidst the silent crowd, became a nearby bystander, following them directly to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
