Chapter 537: 众圣战万丈水兽

A colossal beast, ten thousand feet in length, came riding the waves. The Genesis Qi throughout the world seemed to boil at that moment, and an indescribable sense of ferocity, like a storm, swept out from within the ten thousand-foot water beast, stirring up the waves.

Countless gazes were fixed on the ten thousand-foot water beast, all filled with profound shock.

Compared to this, even the thousand-foot water beasts that were previously beyond the reach of many disciples now seemed insignificant.

The ten thousand-foot water beast's body was transparent like crystal, as massive as a mountain, and it possessed six enormous arms. It was like a six-armed fiend charging directly, its ferocity beyond compare.

"Is that the ten thousand-foot water beast...?"

Zhou Yuan, who was leading an elite team to encircle a thousand-foot water beast, took a moment to look up. He gazed at the massive silhouette, gasped, and his expression became extremely solemn.

He clearly sensed the immense power of this ten thousand-foot water beast.

If even he was like this, what about the other disciples? Their faces were pale, their courage instantly shaken, and they were repeatedly driven back by the numerous water beasts.

In contrast, the water beasts, seemingly blessed by some power due to the appearance of the ten thousand-foot water beast, charged forward with even greater frenzy.

The situation all around became extremely chaotic at this moment.

At the highest point of the island, Li Qingchan and the other Holy Sons also noticed this change, and their eyes immediately narrowed.

"Everyone, prepare to make your move," Li Qingchan said, taking a deep breath.

The others also nodded, their expressions grim. Their intervention was the most crucial part of the entire situation. If they couldn't defeat the ten thousand-foot water beast, then the Seven Peaks disciples were bound to be defeated this time.

Eleven figures ascended into the sky, transforming into streaks of light. Tun Tun was held in Yaoyao's arms. They fanned out, appearing directly in front of the ten thousand-foot water beast.

Without any hesitation, the surging Genesis Qi within Li Qingchan and the others erupted. The Genesis Qi soared like smoke signals, reaching straight into the clouds, a truly magnificent sight.

As soon as the Holy Sons made their move, they immediately revealed a Genesis Qi foundation far surpassing that of the chief disciples of each peak.

Powerful Genesis Qi pressure emanated throughout the world, and for a moment, it actually managed to resist the ferocious aura originating from within the ten thousand-foot water beast.

The ten thousand-foot water beast looked at the dozen or so figures blocking its path and let out a roar. Its six arms flailed, then it slammed them fiercely onto the sea surface.

The sea surface seemed to be torn apart as countless water pillars, like giant spears, shot out explosively, overwhelmingly striking the dozen or so figures in the sky. Each water pillar contained ferocious power.

From within the Holy Sons, majestic Genesis Qi surged out, transforming into a torrent of Genesis Qi, clashing head-on with the whistling water pillars. Instantly, a mighty roar resonated, and a torrential downpour poured across the world, blurring visibility.

Above the Holy Sons' heads, Genesis Qi formed an auspicious canopy, with light radiating downwards, protecting them within.

Their gazes, all sharp, were locked onto the ten thousand-foot water beast. Potent and surging Genesis Qi churned within them like a flood.

Yaoyao and Ye Ge's Genesis Rune brushes swiftly descended from the void. Complex and esoteric Genesis Runes took shape one after another, finally transforming into whistling streams of light that landed on the bodies of the other Holy Sons.

The Genesis Runes circulated on the Holy Sons' bodies like living things, continuously drawing in Genesis Qi from heaven and earth.

These were high-grade auxiliary Genesis Runes, capable of boosting Genesis Qi attacks and defense, while also absorbing Genesis Qi from heaven and earth to replenish their own consumption.

Once the Genesis Runes attached, Li Qingchan, Chu Qing, and the other Holy Sons also shot out explosively. The next instant, a fierce onslaught that caused countless disciples to change color whistled overwhelmingly towards the ten thousand-foot water beast.

Each attack contained astonishing power.

Facing the Holy Sons' attacks, the ten thousand-foot water beast slammed its six arms against its chest with a fierce impact, emitting a deep roar as invisible waves of energy rippled outwards. The next moment, it swung its six arms, its colossal fists condensed with extremely wild Genesis Qi, directly confronting the Holy Sons head-on, completely unafraid of their numerical advantage.

Boom! Rumble!

When the two sides collided head-on, the commotion truly overturned seas and rivers. This part of the sea surface continuously collapsed, and enormous waves formed from the battle's aftermath, violently surging in all directions.

Some unfortunate disciples and water beasts were swept into it.

Zhou Yuan watched this level of battle from afar. He could clearly feel that the Holy Sons' strength indeed far surpassed that of their chief disciples.

Although many chief disciples subtly possessed the strength to enter the ninth layer, once in the ninth layer, what truly mattered was one's Genesis Qi foundation.

Currently, the Genesis Qi stars within Zhou Yuan numbered around five thousand.

While someone like Baili Che had at most around six thousand.

But for the Holy Sons before him, according to Zhou Yuan's estimation, even Zhao Zhu, ranked tenth, likely had a Genesis Qi foundation far exceeding ten thousand.

This was the Holy Sons' true foundation.

Faced with such formidable Holy Sons, even Zhou Yuan had to admit that at this moment, even against Zhao Zhu, ranked tenth, he would likely have very little chance of victory.

Unless he utilized the power of the "Silver Shadow," perhaps then he might be able to fight them head-on.

Because the gap in Genesis Qi foundation between them was indeed too vast.

"I still have some way to go..." Zhou Yuan took a deep breath. It seemed that even though he had now become a chief disciple, he couldn't afford to relax.

The Holy Sons possessed such a foundation due to extensive arduous cultivation. If he wanted to catch up, he would still need to put in considerable effort.

"If I can obtain the Nine Dragon Baptism during this Genesis Pond Festival... that should greatly enhance my Genesis Qi foundation." Zhou Yuan licked his lips, a fiery glint in his eyes.

However, this thought was merely a temporary fantasy for now, because the Nine Dragon Baptism was not only coveted by him but also intensely desired by the Holy Sons themselves.

It would likely not be easy to obtain enough Genesis Marrow from it to support the Nine Dragon Baptism.

Boom! Boom!

While Zhou Yuan's thoughts were stirring, the battle on the distant sea became increasingly ferocious. The ten thousand-foot water beast's combat power was truly terrifying; even when facing the Holy Sons' encirclement, it showed no signs of falling behind.

The ten thousand-foot water beast swung its six arms. Between two of its giant palms, it suddenly rubbed out a massive Genesis Qi orb. With a flick, the orb tore through space, violently blasting towards Li Qingchan.

However, just as the orb was about to hit Li Qingchan, a figure appeared in front of her; it was Shang Chunqiu.

He was seen crossing his arms in front of him, roaring like thunder. Crystalline jade light blossomed on his skin, seeming to form strange patterns on its surface.

Within his body, exquisite silver light also emerged.

It was none other than the true Profound Saint Body, even more powerful than Zhou Yuan's Minor Profound Saint Body!

The strongest physical body in Cangxuan Sect!

The ferocious Genesis Qi orb struck Shang Chunqiu, and a storm raged. The sea surface below was ripped apart, and Shang Chunqiu's figure, like a cannonball, smashed one huge crater after another into the sea surface.

However, when his figure came to a stop, his clothes were merely torn, and he was not severely injured. His resilience left countless disciples utterly astonished.

While he was tanking the blow, the other Holy Sons seized the opportunity to unleash fierce attacks, overwhelmingly bombarding the ten thousand-foot water beast's massive body, causing ripples to bloom on its surface.

The ten thousand-foot water beast's defense was equally astonishing.

At the same time, an incomparably fierce beast roar resounded. A dark golden light tore through the void as Tun Tun's majestic and ferocious figure appeared behind it. On its sharp claws, black arcs of light flickered and pulsed, emitting extremely dangerous fluctuations.

Rip!

Its sharp claws slashed down. The strange black light seemed to tear even the void itself.

The claws swept across the ten thousand-foot water beast's body, actually tearing open a massive gash. Black light flickered, as if possessing a devouring power, continuously eroding the Genesis Qi within the ten thousand-foot water beast's body.

Tun Tun's attack could be described as formidable. The ten thousand-foot water beast also let out a piercing roar. Its six arms swung, its fist winds as heavy as mountains, sending Tun Tun flying backward with a single punch.

"Team up, attack where Tun Tun tore it open!" Yaoyao called out softly.

Li Qingchan and the others, hearing this, made their move without hesitation. Surging Genesis Qi attacks rapidly coalesced into form, one after another. The next instant, ten torrents of Genesis Qi streaked across the sky like meteors, raising towering waves, all of them blasting precisely at the spot where Tun Tun's sharp claws had torn.

The power of that assault was truly terrifying. Even the ten thousand-foot water beast was blasted, letting out wails, and its massive body carved long trails on the sea surface.

Many disciples, witnessing this scene, immediately cheered.

This time, it was clear that the Holy Sons had inflicted significant damage on the ten thousand-foot water beast.

However, compared to the joyful cheers of the other disciples, Li Qingchan and the others stared solemnly at the distant ten thousand-foot water beast. If this behemoth could be defeated so easily, then the Seven Peaks disciples of a hundred years ago wouldn't have been completely wiped out...

On the sea surface, the ten thousand-foot water beast was roaring. Its six massive arms suddenly plunged into the Genesis Pond. Immediately, the seawater formed a giant shield, enveloping it. And everyone could feel that at this very moment, the Genesis Qi in the Genesis Pond seemed to be furiously converging towards it.

Li Qingchan and the others attempted to attack, but found that they were all blocked by the water shield.

"This ten thousand-foot water beast seems to be getting serious..." Li Qingchan said solemnly.

Chu Qing habitually rubbed his bald head and said, "I once read a scripture within the sect that mentioned some things about this ten thousand-foot water beast. It's said that this thing can evolve many powerful abilities. Among them, the most troublesome is called 'Dragon Saliva True Water.' It's formed by absorbing Genesis Dragon Qi. This water is not only indestructible, but it can also connect to the Genesis Pond, allowing the ten thousand-foot water beast to possess inexhaustible Genesis Qi, making it extremely troublesome."

"What does that Dragon Saliva True Water look like?" someone asked.

Chu Qing casually said, "It seems to be dark yellow in color. However, for the ten thousand-foot water beast to evolve such an ability also depends on luck. And we probably won't be that unlucky, don't worry!"

As his voice faded, he felt the surroundings suddenly grow much quieter.

So he looked up in confusion, only to see Li Qingchan and the others staring ahead with somewhat displeased expressions. His gaze followed theirs, and then the smile on his face froze.

At that moment, on the sea surface, the ten thousand-foot water beast roared towards the sky. And on its massive body, the originally crystalline color gradually began to turn dark yellow.

The dark yellow color flowed over its surface like dragon saliva. Faintly, a low dragon roar could be heard.

The Genesis Pond boiled, and a continuous stream of Genesis Qi surged forth. One could see that the wounds previously torn open on the ten thousand-foot water beast's body began to heal at a visible pace.

An even more astonishing fluctuation emanated from within its body.

In the high sky, everyone fell silent. Then, their gazes, one after another, turned coldly towards Chu Qing.

That jinx!

Chu Qing, feeling the angry stares of the crowd, shivered slightly. He awkwardly mumbled, "It couldn't be, could it?"
