Chapter 303: The Conch
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
It was already seven o’clock in the evening, so Hao Ren was surprised by Little Daoist Zhen’s request.
“What… West Ocean Dragon Palace?” Hao Zhonghua asked in bafflement.
“Oh, it’s a popular game,” Hao Ren quickly came up with an explanation.
“Ok…” Hao Zhonghua nodded. He was not familiar with the things that young people played, especially the popular games that elementary school students liked.
However, he didn’t think that they would get into trouble since Hao Ren was just going out to play with a kid.
“Are you coming or not?” Little Daoist Zhen asked again.
“Ok. I’ll go with you.” Hao Ren had no choice but to agree.
If he refused, he was afraid that Little Daoist Zhen would blurt out more unusual words to unsuspecting people. It was fortunate that he was a little kid, and it would be ok for him to talk nonsense as long as he didn’t show his cultivation techniques.
“Little White, let’s go!” Little Daoist Zhen beckoned to Little White that trotted back to his feet cheerfully.
“Don’t stay out too late,” Yue Yang looked at Hao Ren and said.
“Got it!” Hao Ren answered while pulling Little Daoist Zhen out of the house.
Yue Yang looked at Xie Yujia who had a solemn expression on her face and urged, “Yujia, go to bed early.”
“Ok.” Xie Yujia glanced again at the door before helping Grandma go upstairs to her room.
Once they were out of the house, Little Daoist Zhen waved his hand and created a red energy sphere around himself, Hao Ren, and Little White. Under his feet, a disk-shaped dharma treasure appeared and lifted Hao Ren and Little White.
Little Daoist Zhen didn’t have great cultivation strength, but he possessed dharma treasures that were rare to find in the world. Any dharma treasure he dumped would cause a fierce fight among the middle-tier sects on and above Fifth Heaven.
This flight dharma treasure was made by Little Daoist Zhen himself, and he had not even given it a name. This disk looked ugly, but it could fly as fast as those supreme dharma treasures.
If the array formations were the engine of this flight dharma treasure, then the nature essence Little Daoist Zhen injected in it was the key to its ignition. The force that drove the dharma treasure was the essence around it!
Although the essence on the land was sparse, it was limitless. The flight dharma treasure had dozens of powerful essence absorption array formations on it, and they allowed this treasure to absorb the essences from nature automatically. Therefore, its speed was fast!
Before Hao Ren could say anything to Little Daoist Zhen, the disk began to fly toward the west swiftly.
If an ordinary flight dharma treasure was a regular small car, then this flight dharma treasure was an F1 race car! It didn’t look fancy, but it flew fast!
Hao Ren saw the scenes around him pass by in the blink of an eye, and the East Ocean City became a vague spot of light in the distance.
Standing on the disk-shaped dharma treasures, Hao Ren didn’t feel any wobbling. Little White yawned and began to sleep at his foot.
“Don’t worry about flying off-course. I set the direction and distance, and it will land automatically when we arrive,” Little Daoist Zhen said proudly before tossing a mat onto the disk and sitting down to cultivate.
Little White murmured in its dream and rolled onto the warm mat.
“Well, the ugly flight dharma treasure even has its own GPS?” Little Daoist Zhen is annoying, but his skills in making dharma treasures are amazing…” Hao Ren looked down at the boy who wasn’t even on Zhen-level yet and thought.
Zhen Congming could literally rely on his dharma treasures to carry him through life.
When the grey flight dharma treasure traveled over a group of desolate mountains and flew above an ocean, Hao Ren felt like only about a dozen minutes had passed.
He looked around and found that the surrounding area was full of rocky mountains. Instead of big cities, there were only a few towns in the area, and it was quite desolate compared with the populated and wealth land in the East Ocean Dragon Clan’s territory.
The flight dharma treasure slowed down.
Little Daoist Zhen opened his eyes and pointed his arm to the ocean, and this dharma treasure strengthened the red energy sphere before submerging into the sea.
Little White was woken up by the sound, and it immediately stood up, looking around with its innocent eyes.
Outside the energy sphere were seawater and ocean creatures. As a land spirit beast, Little White felt nervous and fearful in the ocean. It moved closer to Hao Ren’s feet and blinked its big, innocent big.
The flight dharma treasure moved quickly through the water. Shortly, it arrived at a magnificent underwater palace.
‘West Ocean Dragon Palace’— these four characters were engraved above the main gate.
Hao Ren had never been to the West Ocean Dragon Palace before. Looking down at the palace, he realized that the size of the West Ocean Dragon Palace was twice the size of the East Ocean Dragon Palace.
There were so many buildings in the palace that they seemed endless, and Hao Ren wondered if they had overestimated themselves. Could only the two of them cause trouble for the West Ocean Dragon Palace?
Zhen Congming casually took out a black conch from his sleeve. He swung it on his finger, and the conch immediately grew to the length of his arm.
He withdrew the flight dharma treasure, and the red energy sphere disappeared with it. Hao Ren immediately put the Water Repellent Bead in his mouth, and the seawater hovered around him.
Little White couldn’t build energy spheres, and it didn’t have a Water Repellent Bead. Therefore, it began to swim in the water. Its posture was ugly, but it was a spirit beast and wouldn’t drown.
“I’ll go and arrange the core of the array formation. You just stay here and monitor the enemies for me.” Zhen Congming handed the conch to Hao Ren.
He then took out a silver cape and pulled it over him, disappearing immediately.
Faint silver lights were flashing as Little Daoist Zhen moved to a spot hundreds of meters away from the palace and planted a small flag into the ground. Then, he moved to another spot and planted another small flag.
Hao Ren looked around alertly while keeping an eye on the position of Little Daoist Zhen. Suddenly, he felt like he was back in his childhood stealing sweet potatoes in the village where his grandma used to live.
“Damn West Ocean Dragon Palace, its defense walls are too long for my flags. Ok, I’ll only bomb half of the palace and destroy the other half next time!” About a dozen minutes later, Zhen Congming swam back to Hao Ren and cursed angrily.
He gritted his teeth and said to Hao Ren. “I’ll arrange the array formation, and you apply the nature essence. I’ll let you control the Destructive ‘Making You Beg for Death’ Fire Lightning Super Killer Conch!”
Hao Ren now realized that he was invited here not as a mere witness.
As Hao Ren looked at him in a daze, Zhen Congming frowned. “The Destructive ‘Making You Beg for Death’ Fire Lightning Super Killer Conch is too powerful for me to control. You are on Zhen-Level so that you could use one-tenth of this conch’s power.”
“Humph! I’ll burn them out of their wits!” Zhen Congming added as he lightly rubbed his cheeks. Since he lived by the principle, an eye for an eye, Little Daoist Zhen would make West Ocean pay dearly.
“Golden Sand Array!” Zhen Congming made a hand gesture, and the flags buried near the dragon palace lit up instantly.
It seemed that the guards had detected the situation, and a bunch of them flew toward the golden flags like a flood.
“If you don’t want to get captured, beat them with me! Fill it with metal-elemental essences!” Zhen Congming urged Hao Ren.
“Ok!” Hao Ren didn’t have a good impression of the West Ocean Dragon Clan, so he immediately activated his metal-elemental essences and injected it into the conch in his hand.
Since Little Daoist Zhen was confident of himself, Hao Ren guessed that this dharma treasure wouldn’t be too lame.
Boom! Hao Ren felt like all the metal-elemental essences in his body was suddenly sucked out by the black conch, and its force was so violent that it almost sucked his whole arm in.
The moment the array formation was activated, yellow sand grains from an area with a diameter of 100 kilometers flew toward the West Ocean Dragon Palace and engulfed it.
The scouting team that came out to investigate was instantly buried in the yellow sand.
Dang… The solid signboard with ‘West Ocean Dragon Palace’ on it was blown to the ground.
A dozen or so purple-robed elders tried to rush out of the palace, but they were knocked back by the yellow sand.
These sand grains were not ordinary since they contained wind and lightning power. If cultivators touched any of them, their cultivation strength would start diminishing immediately. If they had the sand blown into their flesh, their meridians would be blocked, and it would be excruciating if they tried to activate their nature essence.
The purple-robed elders at the front of the group got the sands blown into their ears. Immediately, their senses were damaged; they couldn’t see nor hear anymore.
Sensing the power of the sands, the following elders hurriedly pulled the injured elders into the dragon palace.
The West Ocean Dragon Palace had a main gate, but it didn’t have roofing on top. The surging yellow sand flew over the walls and entered the dragon palace.
The yellow sand grains with hidden wind and lightning power began to run wild in the palace. Like daggers, they shattered the golden glazed tiles in the buildings and cut deeply into the solid red beams and pillars!
The orderly West Ocean Dragon Palace was instantly messed up.
Hiss… The cultivators of West Ocean didn’t know who was attacking them, so a pale blue defense array formation was activated to protect the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
“You try to play with array formations in front of a master?” Zhen Congming snorted. “Berserk Ice Array! Half metal-elemental essence and half water-elemental essence!”
Hao Ren placed the other hand on the conch and injected a surge of pure water-elemental essence.
Zhen Congming picked up a red flag and waved it slightly. Under his calm veneer, he was excited and thought, “This silent Hao Ren has such stable and firm cultivation strength! He looks gentle but is vicious in action. I like it!”
The flags that were placed around the palace shone again.
Tens of thousands of fist-sized ice spikes formed!
Dang! Dang! Dang… The ice spikes that contained wind and lighting power were the perfect weapons to break the water-elemental array formation of the West Ocean Dragon Palace!
Crack! Crack… The pale blue light array formation began to crack instantly!
After two seconds, the array formation collapsed, and the ice spikes struck holes on the roofs of the magnificent buildings that were inside the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
Little White was excited at the sight. It swam around Hao Ren as if it was encouraging him to work harder.
“Your mastery of the five-elemental technique is great!” Zhen Congming looked back at Hao Ren and praised him. Then, he looked forward at the West Ocean Dragon Palace with his black eyes and gritted his teeth. “Damn you! You dared to hit me. This is what you get for what you did to me ten days ago! Under the attack of my Super Destroyer Killer Array Formation, you’ll crawl out with tears!”
He waved his flag again. “Burning Fire Array!”
