Chapter 468: Chapter 203: Third-rank Demon King,
River-Swallowing Toad_2
Qin Liangchen was one of the few people in Luo Tian Creed who had travelled far in recent years.
His perspective and knowledge far surpassed those of the other local cultivators.
From him, Luo Chen learned about the situation in the Yu Ding Realm.
The seven Great Sects each controlled a Super Immortal City that nominally belonged to them.
In addition, in relatively important locations, they jointly invested in the construction of three Super Immortal Cities.
Thus, it formed the pattern of the top ten Immortal Cities of the Yu Ding Realm.
For example, Luo Chen was very familiar with the Lianyun Business Union, whose headquarters were actually located in Tian Lan Immortal City.
The nearest sects were Ailao Mountain, Ice Castle, and Hundred Flowers Palace.
Nominally, the Yu Ding Realm belonged to the Yu Ding Sword Sect.
In reality, it was a governance structure of one dominant and six subject sects.
Xuelian District belonged to the Ice Castle, and Taishan District was under the jurisdiction of the Flame Alliance.
The Great River District was different; it was remotely controlled by the Yu Ding Sword Sect.
The sects used methods such as Immortal Cities and markets to maximize and absorb the resources in their territories.
Moreover, in some places where there was no Spirit Qi, they opened up large territories to let a large number of mortals proliferate.
Mortal kingdoms, markets, Immortal Cultivation Clans, Immortal Cities, Golden Core Great Sect, Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect.
Layer upon layer, they had built up the prosperous Yu Ding Realm of today.
While the two were chatting.
Luo Chen’s face suddenly changed.
Qin Liangchen next to him was puzzled, and then a loud noise came from in front of them.
“It’s sinking! It’s sinking!”
“It’s going down!”
“My God, what kind of monster is this!”
Roaring sounds
Raging waves were rising and making loud noises around them.
“Go and join them!”
Luo Chen left these words to Qin Liangchen and jumped up.
A cloud of white fell under his feet, lifting him higher and higher.
Soon, he saw what had happened in front.
A huge vortex, with a diameter of a hundred feet, was slowly rotating in the vast Lancang River.
It was said to be slow, but in fact, it spread from forming to spreading in just an instant.
When Luo Chen looked, he saw the big magic tool ship, already more than half immersed.
The defensive array that was activated did not even hold up for a breath, and vanished into nothingness.
Thousands of cultivators, in terror, flew out of the ship.
But for some reason, no matter how they flew, they could not escape the huge vortex.
Some of the cultivators who were fortunate enough to fly to the riverbank were pierced through by terrifying water arrows.
It seemed that at this moment, departure was prohibited.
“Third Order Demon Beast!” DiiScôver 𝒏𝒆w stori𝒆s on no/𝒗/e()/lbin(.)c/o/m
Luo Chen’s face changed drastically, and his gaze sharply looked at Wang Haichao, who had already left the cabin.
“Gang Master Wang, what’s going on?”
Not only him, but also Li Yixian and Nangong Jin, flew out with their faces pale as paper.
Facing the tense trio, apart from his solemn face, Wang Haichao didn’t seem too worried.
He communicated via sound transmission: “It’s alright, this demon beast is mild-tempered, it won’t cause trouble as long as it’s full.”
“Full?”
What kind of explanation was that?
Luo Chen’s face was dark as he looked at the big ship that was being gradually swallowed.
Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivators struggling in the vortex were constantly shouting for help.
“Save me!”
“Quickly, save me!”
“There’s a Demon King, it’s going to eat people.”
“Gang Master Wang, I paid for the boat ticket, please save me!”
“Wang Haichao, you’re ignoring us in our time of need, you will go to hell.”
On the Dragon Whale Ship, Wang Haichao looked at this indifferently.
Faced with those raging curses, he turned a deaf ear, as if he could not hear anything at all.
“I need an explanation!”
Luo Chen said darkly, his tone as if coming from the Nine You.
If their ship had been in the front row of the fleet, then wouldn’t it be the Luo Tian Creed Cultivators who were to be fed to the demon beast?
In the thick Demon Qi, even he might have difficulty escaping, right?
Not only him, but Li Yixian and Nangong Jin also had icy glares aimed at Wang Haichao.
Wang Haichao turned around, barely squeezing out a smile:
“Since we are allies, how could I possibly harm you?”
“As for the appearance of the River-Swallowing Toad, I only suspected it, and was not sure, so I didn’t notify you in advance.”
Suspected?
What kind of suspicion would make Wang Haichao arrange for all the Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivators to be placed on the first three ships in the formation?
Luo Chen suppressed his rage.
Getting angry now was of no use anymore.
“River-Swallowing Toad?” Nangong Jin suddenly asked.
Wang Haichao nodded, “Yes, it is indeed the Third Order Demon Beast River- Swallowing Toad. This demon beast cultivates by swallowing rivers, lakes, and seas, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. Its nature is considered very mild.”
“Why would it appear here?”
“This has to start from the second time Pang Renxiong came to the Great River District.”
“Huh?”
Wang Haichao said, “Do you remember? When he came last time, he was reckless everywhere. He even caused the collapse of Nan Wa Snow Mountain, where this River- Swallowing Toad was always hibernating. Now that Nan Wa Snow Mountain is no longer as it was, this River-Swallowing Toad has lost its habitat and is wandering around the Lancang River.”
“This time, with so many of us traveling, there is a high probability that we will attract its attention.”
Li Yixian was still dissatisfied, “You could have explained it in advance. It wouldn’t be impossible for us to take a detour. Why did you let so many rogue cultivators feed the River-Swallowing Toad?”
“Detour?” Wang Haichao sneered.
Being mocked by him, Li Yixian felt somewhat humiliated.
Nangong Jin stepped in to defuse the situation.
“Taking a detour is more dangerous, the Nine Chanter Deers in the Ninefold Mountain control a herd of deers, they are a genuine Third-rank Demon King.”
Nine Chanter Deers were not like Fu Zhu Deers, which were mild-mannered demon deer.
