Chapter 1908: Sound Wave Extermination of Demons

Before the blue water pillar even reached him, a powerful gale swept over, causing the golden-robed man's hair to fly wildly.

He showed no fear. A brilliant golden light radiated from his body, and a miniature golden tiger appeared on its surface. The golden tiger seemed alive, letting out a deafening roar.

The golden giant staff in the golden-robed man's hand suddenly swung, emitting a piercing whoosh through the air. A vast expanse of golden staff-shadows swept out like a ceaseless river, heading towards the blue water pillar.

With a thunderous crash, the golden staff-shadows collided with the blue water pillar. The nearby space violently twisted and warped, creating a powerful shockwave. The blue water pillar suddenly burst apart, transforming into countless ocean waves. The sea surface churned violently, sending up colossal waves that spread in all directions like a bursting dam. Numerous low-level demonic beasts were killed by the shockwave, their bodies turning into a shower of blood.

Seizing this opportunity, the colossal Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros burrowed into the seabed, intending to escape using a water-based evasion technique.

Just then, a gigantic blue jade bowl appeared unexpectedly above the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's head. With a gentle spin, the blue jade bowl emitted a hazy blue glow, enveloping a large area of the sea where the creature was. The normally fluid seawater instantly solidified into an impenetrable barrier, preventing the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros from diving into the seabed.

The red-dressed maiden formed a hand seal and softly commanded, "Collect!"

Countless enigmatic runes lit up on the surface of the blue jade bowl, and faintly, a plump blue carp could be seen continuously swimming within it.

The Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros visibly shrank, lifted by the blue glow, and flew towards the blue jade bowl.

Countless golden arcs of electricity surged from the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's body, and tens of thousands of thick golden lightning bolts shot out, striking the blue glow. The blue glow rippled, and its spiritual light dimmed.

The Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's horn shot out a blue beam which struck the blue glow. The blue glow, as if made of paper, was torn to shreds by the blue beam, and the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros broke free.

The moment it broke free, a piercing whoosh ripped through the air above its head. A hazy golden staff-shadow descended from the sky like a majestic golden mountain, smashing onto the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's head.

The Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros let out an agonizing roar, its colossal body rapidly plunging towards the sea surface.

Before it even hit the water, two thick, long blue chains descended from the sky. The blue chains were covered with countless enigmatic runes, and blue light pulsed erratically on their surfaces.

The two blue chains coiled several times around the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's colossal body, their ends submerging into the seawater.

The sea surface rippled with wave-like patterns as the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's colossal body slammed onto it. It was as if landing on a rubber ball; the surface briefly sagged, then quickly returned to normal.

The Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros struggled violently, and the chains twisted continuously, emitting muffled clanking sounds. However, the two blue chains held the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros firmly to the sea surface.

These were the Four Seas Demonic Beast Locking Chains, a low-grade Sky-Penetrating Spirit Treasure specifically designed to counter the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's water-elemental abilities.

A golden long rainbow descended from the sky like a meteor plummeting to earth, striking towards the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros.

Before the golden long rainbow even landed, the seawater near the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros suddenly churned violently, sending up terrifying colossal waves.

The Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros looked unwilling. Its vision turned golden, and it felt as if the world itself had dimmed.

In its despairing gaze, the golden long rainbow struck its head, piercing straight through it. Blood flowed ceaselessly, staining a large area of the sea crimson.

A miniature Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros flew out of its body. The moment it did, a blue-glowing jade bottle descended from the sky, emitting a sheet of blue light that collected the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's soul.

The golden-robed man stood on the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's head, panting, his face pale.

"Junior Sister Sun, it's a good thing you intervened, otherwise this beast would have escaped," he said. The golden-robed man let out a long breath and said with a smile.

"I didn't really help much," the red-dressed maiden said with a wry smile. "The two fellow disciples who came as reinforcements are somewhat unfamiliar; I don't think I've ever met them. If they hadn't killed a mid-grade Fifth-Tier Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros and trapped another one with their spells, I wouldn't have been able to spare time to assist Senior Brother Chen. This time, it was thanks to the fellow disciples who came to help, otherwise my fate would have been grim."

"Are they really that strong? Are they perhaps here to replace Junior Brother Yang in guarding Xuanling Island?" the golden-robed man asked, a hint of surprise in his eyes as he looked towards the distant blue water curtain.

A joyful flute melody emerged, and the blue water curtain twisted and deformed.

They leaped and flew towards the blue water curtain, the flute melody ceaseless.

"Junior Brothers and Sisters, please remove the restrictions," the golden-robed man said sincerely, his voice like a resounding bell. "I'll lend you a hand; this beast is not easy to deal with."

"Thank you for your kind offer, Senior Brother Chen," a gentle male voice replied from within the blue water curtain, filled with confidence. "We can handle it. Please keep your distance from us to avoid being affected."

The golden-robed man was slightly stunned. Just as he was about to say something, he looked at the dozen or so Nascent Soul cultivators and noticed their dazed expressions and swaying bodies.

"An illusion!"

A hint of surprise flashed in the golden-robed man's eyes. He let out a loud shout, "All disciples, heed my command! Leave this place immediately!"

His voice was so loud it caused the void to continuously vibrate and twist. It was the Heavenly Tiger Roar!

The dozen or so Nascent Soul cultivators heard this sound and instantly regained their senses. They dared not be careless and flew away rapidly.

The ethereal melodies continued, sometimes spirited, sometimes melodious, sometimes joyful, constantly shifting and unpredictable.

After a while, the blue water curtain suddenly dissipated. A massive Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros floated motionless on the sea surface, with no severe injuries on its body. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan stood on the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros's head, their expressions calm as usual.

The physical bodies of Fifth-Tier demonic beasts are too powerful; it's easier to severely wound them with soundwave attacks. After Wang Ruyan obtained the Sky-Penetrating Spirit Treasure, the Red Dust Flute, her divine abilities became even stronger. Even mid-grade Fifth-Tier demonic beasts would quickly fall into her illusions and be killed by her soundwave attacks.

Seeing the motionless Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros, the golden-robed man and the red-dressed maiden exchanged glances, both filled with shock.

"I am Wang Changsheng, and this is my wife, Wang Ruyan," Wang Changsheng said, cupping his fists with a sincere tone. "Greetings, Senior Brother Chen, Senior Sister Sun. We are here by the order of Senior Uncle Fang to take charge of Xuanling Island."

"So it's Junior Brother Wang and Junior Sister Wang," Chen Xin said, his face showing a look of sudden understanding as he introduced himself. "I am Chen Xin, and this is Junior Sister Sun Wu."

"Junior Brother Wang, Junior Sister Wang," Chen Xin suggested, "this isn't the best place to talk. Let's return to Xuanling Island to speak!"

Wang Changsheng did not refuse and agreed.

Wang Changsheng flicked his sleeve, and two hazy green ropes flew out, coiling around the bodies of the two Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceroses. They flew towards Xuanling Island, dragging the two Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceroses along with them—a prize worth millions of spirit stones.

He dragged the Sea-Swallowing Rhinoceros corpses onto the beach of Xuanling Island, instructing the Zhenhai Palace disciples to process the demonic beast corpses. In return, Wang Changsheng would give them some scraps as compensation, which the Zhenhai Palace disciples eagerly accepted.
