#590 - The powerful sea tribes gathered
In front of the Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy, tribulation clouds covered the sky, enveloping the entire area in front of the academy.
Before the ancient academy's mountain gate stood a crowd of people, all young prodigies from the Sea Clan, numbering several hundred.
These Sea Clan prodigies all watched the Thunder Serpent Clan's young master, Jiao Wujie, undergo his tribulation, some with solemn expressions, others filled with shock, and still others with looks of admiration.
Ninth Elder landed before the mountain gate, frowning as he looked at the scene before him. With a wave of his hand, mysterious runes rose above the ancient academy, and blazing beams of light shot into the tribulation clouds.
Heaven seemed to sense this, and the tribulation clouds that spanned a thousand miles rapidly shrank, instantly becoming a thunder tribulation area covering only a hundred miles. However, the power of the tribulation thunder did not weaken at all; instead, the aura of heavenly might grew stronger with the passage of time.
This heavenly tribulation lasted a very long time, continuing until the afternoon.
Jiao Wujie had already passed through five layers of thunder tribulation.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his body flashing with electric light, allowing the tribulation thunder to bombard him without budging.
From the beginning, the thunder tribulation had been unable to harm him, and it was still the same at this moment!
The wild thunder in the sky crazily struck down, bombarding his body, and was all absorbed into his body.
"The Thunder Serpent Clan is indeed one of the royal clans of the sea. This ability to control lightning is too terrifying!"
"The Thunder Serpent Clan cultivates with the power of thunder, and the stars in their inner heavens are all condensed from lightning. This thunder tribulation not only cannot harm Jiao Wujie but will also provide him with power. Such bloodline talent is truly amazing!"
"Jiao Wujie has already stepped into the legendary realm. If he successfully passes this tribulation, under the baptism of the heavenly tribulation, he will surely rise to a higher level, and his talent growth intensity will increase again. I wonder what level he will reach!"
"He is, after all, one of the strongest among the younger generation of our Sea Clan. How could he not be strong?"
"He has only just passed the Saint Sect tribulation. What level will his talent growth intensity reach when he steps into the Half-Saint realm?"
"Well, but this great era has produced many strong individuals. Isn't there a human on land called Jun Wuxie? A year ago, he killed many of our Sea Clan's prodigies. He is truly hateful!"
"That Jun Wuxie is indeed very strong. According to speculation, his talent growth intensity is very likely to have reached the mid-stage of the legendary realm! However, now that Jiao Wujie has passed the Saint Sect tribulation and his growth intensity has increased, coupled with the Thunder Serpent Clan's talent secret techniques, he should not be weaker than that Jun Wuxie!"
"Besides Jun Wuxie, there are still some strong humans, such as the Ancient Phoenix Sect and the Golden Ancient City, which are backed by forbidden zones. Their strongest young masters are of unknown level, but they are definitely terrifying. However, they will not come to the Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy."
"There are also several human women that we cannot underestimate, such as Mu Yunxi, the Saintess of the Ice Cloud Tower, who killed our Sea Clan prodigies in the demon race's secret land, and a woman named Ji Yinlan! Oh, yes, I heard that the Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy also invited Yan Qingcheng. That hateful woman dared to sneak into our Sea Clan's secret land some time ago and steal many opportunities. She is also a terrifying opponent!"
"Hmph, I wonder if that Jun Wuxie and those human women have come! They are enemies of our Sea Clan. If we have the opportunity, we must teach them a good lesson!"
"The Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy does not allow killing."
"No killing, but there's no problem with making them kneel and submit or repent, right? Just watch, our Sea Clan's young supreme beings all have invincible beliefs in their hearts. How can they swallow this anger? That Jun surnamed person will not have a good time!"
… …
Ninth Elder's divine sense was so keen that he heard the words of some Sea Clan prodigies clearly and couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.
These Sea Clan youngsters really wanted to provoke Jun Wuxie.
However, judging from their meaning, they were not prepared to provoke him personally but were hoping that a royal clan young master like Jiao Wujie would provoke him.
"You youngsters, put away your little thoughts and grievances." Ninth Elder swept his gaze over everyone and said lightly, "We invited you here to improve your strength, not to resolve grievances! As for the person you mentioned, this old man advises you not to provoke him, or there may be very serious consequences."
"Ninth Elder is right. We have remembered it."
The Sea Clan prodigies responded in this way, but they did not take it to heart.
Don't provoke him? There will be serious consequences?
They sneered inwardly. Their Sea Clan's young supreme beings were all coming here. Could they not afford to provoke a human prodigy?
In the past, their Sea Clan's prodigies were no match because those people were ranked too far behind among their generation. Compared to the strongest young supreme beings, they were far behind, not on the same level.
Rumble!
From the distant sky came the sound of sea tides shaking mountains and rivers, overwhelming the roar of the tribulation thunder.
It was an overwhelming wave, like an ocean moving in the sky, rolling up monstrous waves and rapidly heading towards the Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy.
Hiss!
Within the wave that swept across the sky, a hissing sound cracked the sky.
A chariot appeared in sight.
Three black serpents with fleshy thorns growing on their heads and necks pulled the chariot, riding the wind and waves.
On the chariot sat a black-clad youth with thick black hair draped over his chest and back. He was burly and had a wild and gloomy aura. In the middle of his pair of bright yellow pupils was a vertical line, and his eyes were rhombus-shaped, like snake eyes.
"That is… the young master of the North Sea Black Serpent Clan!"
Some Sea Clan prodigies recognized the person and revealed expressions of excitement.
This was an extremely strong young supreme being who had recently killed a Half-Saint!
His strength was definitely among the top three in the Sea Clan's younger generation, even stronger than that Jiao Wujie!
"Jiao Wujie, you are really boring, running here to undergo tribulation, trying to attract attention?"
The waves and chariot rolled in, and the Black Serpent Clan's young master sat on it, bypassing the thunder tribulation area, his words filled with sarcasm.
"Xuan Yuan, where I undergo tribulation is none of your business. Do you have the ability to come in and try?"
Jiao Wujie retorted, standing proudly under the tribulation clouds like the son of thunder. The wild thunder in the sky bombarded down but could not shake him in the slightest.
"Hahaha! Jiao Wujie, you are so arrogant just after undergoing tribulation. Why don't you fight Xuan Yuan?"
In the distant sky, the water surged, and the flames rolled, covering the eight wastelands.
It is said that water and fire are incompatible, but at this moment, water and fire were perfectly integrated, with waves of water rolling in the fire and flames rising in the water.
Everyone looked towards the distant sky. In the monstrous water and fire, nine hideous and terrifying snake heads were raised high, and the eyes on each snake head were incomparably cold and sharp as knives!
"The young master of the Nine Infants Clan has come!"
The Sea Clan prodigies all held their breath. The Nine Infants young master was默considered to be at least the second-ranked powerhouse among the Sea Clan prodigies!
As for the first, it might be the young master of the Kun Clan, or it might be this Nine Infants young master!
Because the Kun Clan's young master had never shown his strength in front of others, the Sea Clan could only speculate on his approximate strength.
Only a real battle would reveal who was stronger between the Kun Clan's young master and the Nine Infants young master.
"Shao Jiuying!"
Jiao Wujie and Xuan Yuan's expressions both became solemn.
"Do you two seem to be very wary of me, Shao Jiuying?"
In the monstrous water and fire, the nine snake heads spoke human words and instantly arrived before the ancient academy's mountain gate.
Shao Jiuying's thousand-meter-long gigantic body rapidly shrank in the light, turning into a green-clad man with sharp eyes.
"Ninth Elder."
Shao Jiuying greeted, and then stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, as if nothing was in his eyes.
"Hmph!"
Xuan Yuan snorted coldly, standing on the chariot, and did not speak again.
Jiao Wujie continued to undergo the thunder tribulation and did not pay attention to Xuan Yuan and Jiuying again.
… …
Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy, halfway up Gathering Spirit Peak.
After Jun Wuxie arranged for Mu Yuning, Mu Yushu, Mu Yirou, and Mu Yiling to cultivate in the inner chamber, he came to the cave entrance, overlooking the scene in front of the mountain gate.
He had witnessed the entire process of the arrival of the Sea Clan's three young supreme beings.
"This Sea Clan is indeed extraordinary. It is difficult to find a few people among our human race who can compete with them."
Jun Wuxie murmured. The human race has many ancient god bloodlines, but it is more difficult to awaken them. Therefore, in the early stages of cultivation, it is difficult to keep up with the pace of these demigod beasts and god beast descendants.
The Thunder Serpent itself is a demigod beast, and its growth rate is amazing. The bloodline does not need to be awakened. As it grows, it will naturally release its bloodline potential.
The Black Serpent and Nine Infants are both god-level fierce beasts!
It's just that the bloodlines of Xuan Yuan and Shao Jiuying are not pure. They are only descendants of god-level fierce beasts, but their bloodline intensity has still reached the demigod beast level.
At this time, a roaring sound came again from the distant sky.
It was a big fish, its body so huge that it simply exceeded Jun Wuxie's cognition!
He had never seen such a huge creature!
That body was hundreds of miles long!
It came from the distant sky, and between the opening and closing of the fish's mouth, the sky was dark, and the entire sky was black for a moment, as if it wanted to swallow the world into its belly!
"It seems that it should be the young master of the Kun Clan, a Kunpeng descendant! This is definitely a top-level demigod beast bloodline!"
Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes. By his intuition, this Kun Clan young master was even stronger than that Shao Jiuying, and he was probably already at the late stage of the legendary realm!
The Kun Clan young master's body rapidly shrank. When he arrived before the ancient academy's mountain gate, he had turned into a handsome young man in blue brocade clothes.
Just as he arrived, another Kun appeared, its aura no different from his.
The second Kun turned into a twenty-year-old, aloof and beautiful woman in a blue dress, with flowing long hair and a transcendent temperament. There was an undisguised arrogance in her plain eyes, landing beside the blue-clad youth.
"The Kun Clan princess!"
Jun Wuxie's divine sense captured the low discussions of the Sea Clan prodigies.
"This Kun Clan princess has never shown her true form. I didn't expect her to be so terrifying! The larger the Kun Clan's true form, the higher the realm and talent growth intensity! One clan with two supreme beings, no wonder they are Kunpeng descendants. This strength is too terrifying!"
“Who else in our Sea Race can compete with the Kun Race? A race with two Supreme beings, if they both become peak Half-Sage experts in the future, that's simply unimaginable…”
……
Jun Wuxie listened to the discussions of many Sea Race prodigies, noticing that Xuan Yuan and Shao Jiuying didn't look too happy.
Clearly, their earlier limelight had been completely overshadowed by the Kun Race siblings.
The Kun Race siblings were very quiet. After arriving, they stood beside the Ninth Elder. After greeting him, they didn't say anything else, only calmly watching Jiao Wujie show off while undergoing his tribulation.
Jun Wuxie also watched quietly.
Until a familiar figure came from the end of the sky, catching his eye.
Yinlan?
That was Ji Yinlan!
She's here!
A smile couldn't help but appear on Jun Wuxie's face.
Years had passed since their separation.
Back then, he had fallen into the Asura Path of Slaughter, and she had been pierced by the Hunter's Forbidden Spear.
In the last moment before her consciousness faded, he saw a white-haired woman take her away.
She wore a silver-white celestial silk dress, ethereal and otherworldly, coming from the distant sky. Her jade feet gently touched down, her figure like a shooting star across the horizon, like a celestial maiden descending from the heavens, untouched by any worldly dust.
Unseen for a year, her temperament had undergone a considerable change. Amidst her otherworldly and immortal aura was a hint of majesty, causing Jun Wuxie to feel a strange sense of absentmindedness.
What remained unchanged was her captivating beauty, still flawlessly beautiful, her eyes as clear and deep as a sapphire lake.
“That is… Ji Yinlan of the Human Race?”
A Sea Race prodigy narrowed his eyes, uttering these words.
Xuan Yuan and Shao Jiuying both smirked, exchanging glances, each seeing the other's eagerness to make a move.
In every Grand Era, whenever their Sea Race landed, they would be in competition, even opposition, with the Human Race. Only a very small number of Sea Race members would choose to coexist harmoniously with the Human Race.
Jiao Wujie, who was undergoing his tribulation, also saw the woman stepping through the air.
Images that elders of his race had shown him immediately surfaced in his mind—portraits introducing the young prodigies of the land-dwelling Human Race, and the woman before him was among them!
“Ji Yinlan!”
Jiao Wujie's eyes erupted with lightning, his entire being filled with excitement, like a hunter seeing his prey. He took a step forward, crossing the sky, and cut off Ji Yinlan's path.
