Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

An ocean without bounds, waves gently lapping.

Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue boarded the massive ship and entered the East Sea World.

This was Lin Feng's first time setting sail.

The greatness of the ocean's swells deeply moved Lin Feng.

It gave him a sense of reflection.

No matter how powerful the strength of humans,

In front of nature,

It always seemed insignificant.

Every so often, huge ships would set sail, heading deep into the ocean.

Some sought Spiritual Medicine on the Immortal Islands.

Others wished to find masters on the islands to learn from.

And some went to the Deep Sea in search of opportunities.

…

All with their own goals in mind.

"This East Sea, boundless and vast, is home to numerous forces, not part of the northern Seventy-two States, but belonging to the world," said the Deputy City Lord, introducing the power division of the East Sea to the cultivators in the cabin.

"In the East Sea Land, the most powerful force is the mysterious and unfathomable Dragon Palace of the East Sea, but it is too secretive for cultivators to easily come into contact with," he explained.

"Aside from the Dragon Palace, there are Seven Great Forces, known as the Three Saints and Four Immortals."

"The Three Saints refer to the Three Ancient Sacred Lands of Penglai, Yunxia, and Feixian; the Four Immortals are the Immortal Islands of Flame, Fire Cloud, Golden Crow, and Divine Peng."

"The Three Great Sacred Lands are under the Human Clan's power, while Flame Island, Golden Crow Island, and Divine Peng Island are under the Demon Clan's power. The Flame Demon King of Flame Island, the Holy Master of Golden Crow Island, and the Holy King of Divine Peng Island are all well-known and powerful individuals who stand at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Martial Continent."

"As for Fire Cloud Island, it is under the power of the Evil Path. The Island Master, the Fire Cloud Evil God, has a cultivation that reaches the skies and is also a force not to be trifled with."

"Flame Demon King?" Lin Feng suddenly thought of the time when demons caused chaos in the East County Divine Land.

Killing hundreds of millions in the East County Divine Land,

It was the Blood Demon Emperor and the Flame Demon King who had launched the attacks together.

So, this Flame Demon King was a Lord of the East Sea.

...

The Deputy City Lord continued, "Of course, apart from these top-level forces, there are some that one cannot overlook, namely the pirates."

"Pirates?" The faces of everyone changed.

They knew of bandits, murderers, and plunderers, who commit all kinds of evil.

Pirates must be similar in nature to bandits.

"Living on land, you may have encountered bandits, but large-scale bandits are few. However, at sea, pirates are outrageously rampant. With the ocean's abundant resources and ease of hiding, it's a perfect age for formidable cultivators to embark on great ocean voyages," said the Deputy City Lord.

"With such rampant piracy, have the great forces of the seas never tried to eradicate them?" someone asked.

"There have been campaigns against them, even wanted lists. The bounties for the Nine Great Pirate Kings even reached one hundred million top-grade Spiritual Stones, but who can kill them?" The Deputy City Lord shook his head.

"There are Pirate Kings?" Everyone was shocked.

"Of course, there are Pirate Kings. The pirate forces are extremely vast, with pirates appearing everywhere. The power of the Nine Great Pirate Kings is especially immense; if the Nine Great Pirate Kings were to join forces, even the Ancient Sacred Lands and Ancient Immortal Islands would shudder," said the Deputy City Lord.

"So, the Nine Great Pirate Kings actually have the capacity to shake the Ancient Sacred Lands and Immortal Islands?" Lin Feng inquired.

"That's one way to put it." The Deputy City Lord nodded.

This was incredible to Lin Feng.

If that truly was the case,

Then,

Nowadays, the East Sea could indeed be termed "the Maritime Era."

The Deputy City Lord went on, "Venturing out to sea, you need to worry about two things: one is how to avoid pirates, and the other is how to evade the powerful Fierce Beasts of the sea."

"In these vast and endless waters where Fierce Beasts run rampant, some mighty beasts can open their gaping maws and swallow whole islands, their cultivation power beyond imagination and invincible."

"Many among you wish to join the great forces of the sea for cultivation. This time, we are going to stop at the Cloud Sea Gathering Place, one of the eighteen largest gathering places, built by the many forces of the sea joining together. It's bustling with people coming and going," the Deputy City Lord explained.

"Moreover, many great forces at sea also have offices in the gathering places. Those who want to join can go to the offices, but whether you can join those top-level forces for cultivation will depend on your own ability."

…

Many cultivators who wanted to join the great forces of the sea were visibly excited upon hearing this.

They obviously held the maritime top-level forces in high regard.

In the East Sea, there are Immortals.

In fact, it refers to these top-level maritime forces.

All these sea powers were of dominator level, their strength even surpassing the ancient desolate forces on land.

Even though they might be slightly weaker than the ancient forces.

That difference was only in terms of their heritage and legacy.

In an actual comparison,

they were not much different at all.

Of course, there was a reason for this.

The resources of the sea far surpassed those of the land.

And yet, there were very few top-level forces at sea.

As such, resources could be concentrated.

Unlike on land, where various powers crisscrossed and intersected,

dispersing resources widely.

Therefore, the strength of these sea powers

was not without reason.

...

The massive ship had been sailing for around ten days when it encountered something truly terrifying.

The sky suddenly darkened.

A cold, sinister breath surged in the void.

Within the ocean, huge creatures appeared.

Massive sharks emerged, visible to all.

The size of these sharks was simply enormous.

Each shark was about a kilometer in length.

Ordinary sharks were only a few meters.

Even the most ferocious tiger shark did not exceed ten meters.

But the sharks appearing before their eyes were a full kilometer long.

It was truly shocking.

These were pitch-black sharks.

There were probably a dozen or so of them, charging toward the gigantic ship.

"Not good, it's the Netherworld Demon Sharks, activate the ship's defensive restrictions, we must quickly escape this area,"

the captain himself appeared, his expression extremely grave.

Netherworld Demon Sharks!

They were one of the most ferocious fierce beasts in the East Sea.

They commonly lived in the deepest parts of the ocean, within the abyss.

"Netherworld" signified "Hell."

And in the ocean, they were defined as "Messengers of Hell."

The Netherworld Demon Sharks, like harbingers from hell, appeared and vanished unpredictably.

Once they emerged,

they would bring carnage and mass destruction.

Countless souls perished.

The ship's defensive restrictions were activated.

The massive ship charged rapidly away to the distance.

But now, it was too late to flee.

The Netherworld Demon Sharks charged over.

"Quickly, release the arrows, slay the Netherworld Demon Sharks,"

the deputy captain urgently shouted.

Huge crossbows were rolled out,

requiring more than a dozen people just to draw them.

The arrows were magic arrows,

each one more than a dozen meters long, capable of easily killing large fierce beasts.

Massive bolts veered off, their power could be said to destroy the heavens and obliterate the earth,

slamming viciously into the bodies of the Netherworld Demon Sharks.

Klang klang klang...

A series of sounds like metal striking metal rang out.

Sparks flew in all directions.

Magic arrows that could slay cultivators of the Yin Yang Realm hit the bodies of the Netherworld Demon Sharks and surprisingly could not even penetrate their defenses.
