Lord of the Magical Beasts

Chapter 728: Heavy Water Domain

Yang Ling reorganized the troops, and they rested for several days. He waited for the Black-Horned Demon to recover before he mounted the Golden Roc with the crowd. They moved quickly. They left the Starry Sky Castle quietly under the cover of night to begin their hunting operation, which would make a prestigious name for the Magical Beast Divine Branch.

Endless battles were the real method for drilling troops. It was only after fighting on the battlefield for a long time that the Magical Beast Army would become truly skilled. It was only by plundering numerous small Divine Branches’ domains, populations, and other resources that they could quickly raise the Great Wizard’s Faith Power. This was the only way that they could become able to someday inflict carnage in the City Amongst the Clouds.

Swoosh!

The Golden Roc flapped its wings hard and flew over a thousand miles. It carried the crowd far away from the Far West Land. It flew straight toward the Giant Dragon Mountain Range. This time, Yang Ling’s operation objective was very clear. He planned to start with the small Divine Branches next to the Giant Dragon Mountain Range. This way, they could plunder a large expanse of territory, population, and other resources, as well as link the occupied territory with the Giant Dragon Mountain Range. They would be able to quickly increase the Magical Beast Divine Branch’s scope of influence.

...

Yang Ling and his companions traveled throughout the night. Meanwhile, in the Heavy Water Domain a billion miles away, the people decorated the land with lanterns and colored banners. They all wore big smiles across their faces. They prepared generous gifts for the new year. All the houses were renovated, and the road was paved with a new layer of smooth bluestone. Even the tree son the roadside were decorated with bright flowers. The children, clad in new clothes, were running excitedly.

The Heavy Water Domain got its name from the Heavy Water River, which flowed through most of its regions. This river had clear, fresh water, and it stretched for a billion miles. It nourished all lands near its shores. It had a large amount of water and many tributary rivers. The river’s water also had a sweet taste, but it was very heavy. It was impossible to sail over the river in a boat, and even a dead branch would promptly sink upon falling into the water. This was why people called it the Heavy Water River.

It was said that the Heavy Water River was a river from beyond the heavens. Its water was compressed greatly, and it became very heavy. Every drop weighed more than 10,000 pounds, and if it fell from a high altitude, even soldiers in heavy armor wouldn’t be able to block it. It would be able to penetrate even the boulders atop the hills.

The Heavy Water River had a gravitational anomaly, but the resources under the water’s surface were ample. If they just threw a net at the shore, they would catch a large number of Heavy Water Fish, which had delicious meat. They didn’t have to worry about basic necessities, but that still wasn’t enough to survive here. The river’s gravitational anomaly brought great trouble to the residents on both shores. These troubles continued until one day, a peerless powerhouse called Pusius arrived with a large group of followers.

Repairing bridges, paving roads, preaching... Pusius used his great power to quickly occupy the Heavy Water River area. He unified the Heavy Water River region and established the Heavy Water Divine Branch with the help of his numerous followers. People called him the Heavy Water Core Deity. His faction wasn’t at the same level as the City Amongst the Clouds, the King of Darkness, and other great factions, but he still had a large number of believers. This domain’s population was at least a hundred times higher than the Giant Dragon Mountain Range.

“Brother Nick, the new year festival will soon begin. All the others have already left, and it’s just us two that have to stay here and get eaten up by mosquitoes. We are really pitiful!” A black-clothed sentinel in the dense forest sighed miserably.

They were Heavy Water Black-clothed Guards, in charge of guarding the Holy Mountain. They had great responsibility, and they couldn’t rest like ordinary soldiers, even during the Heavy Water Domain’s most important new year festival. Everyone from the powerful commander to the most insignificant sentinel had to stick to their posts.

“Hehe, even if it is the new year festival, so what? Even if there were more than enough beauties to go around, a man with black teeth like you wouldn’t get any. Even if you had the skill to seduce a pretty woman, she would run away when you tried to kiss her. And when you kiss her, you should be careful, as you may bite her nose along with her lips.” Nick smiled broadly and looked at his brother’s scary buck teeth.

“Even if I do have buck teeth, I’m still better than a drunkard like you. Your whole body is hard and rigid, but the most crucial region is softer than slime. Just look at your Molina’s big, plump butt. It can be seen at a glance that it lacks proper care. Nick, if you aren’t up to the task, you just have to ask, and I will help you,” the fellow with buck teeth retorted, poking Nick’s sore spot. He wore a lecherous smile across his face!

“Damned buck-teeth man...”

...

The two lonely black-clothed guards joked around. This was the eve of the grand new year festival, and their guard couldn’t have been any laxer. They were unaware that a giant black creature was using the cover of the dark night to pass silently among the treetops.

No one expected that someone would dare to stir up trouble near the Holy Mountain in this moment of celebration!

Swoosh!

As Yang Ling approached the destination, he changed the crowd’s mount to the Mother Empress and advanced forward. They quietly closed in on the Holy Mountain, where the Heavy Water Core Deity was located. Among the numerous strong Magical Beasts, the Golden Roc’s speed was the greatest. But when it came to aura concealment ability, none could match the Mother Empress, who could approach enemies silently.

“Lord, how far is it?”

The Blood Angel Ophelia looked at the joyful crowd beneath the Holy Mountain, celebrating the new year. She also observed the numerous patrol teams of black-clothed guards. She couldn’t help but hold her blade tightly. She was previously a battle angel, and she had been through many battles. She had killed many God-level Experts, but this was the first time she would assassinate a lofty Core Deity.

After all, a Core Deity was a Core Deity, and ordinary people couldn’t deal even with the smallest Divine Branch’s Core Deity.

“We will shortly reach the destination, so get ready to fight. You must bear in mind that your mission is limited to sealing off the mountain’s peak and preventing the guards in the vicinity from escaping or sounding the alarm.” Yang Ling sneered coldly. He had already detected the Soul Ripples and location of the Heavy Water Core Deity with his powerful Divine Consciousness. This was why he’d ordered the Mother Empress to carry the crowd They closed in on him silently and swiftly.

The Magical Beast Army’s current power was more than enough to kill the numerous black-clothed guards, but they wanted to eradicate the numerous small Divine Branches in the Giant Dragon Mountain Range’s vicinity at the highest speed possible. It would be foolish to attack with great fanfare. The best method was commanding the Mother Empress, the Golden Roc, and the other elites to attack the Heavy Water Core Deity, who was training in seclusion. The other Magical Beasts, commanded by the Corpse Wizard King and his companions, would seal off the mountain’s peak and sneakily annex the Heavy Water Divine Branch.

After Yang Ling silently evaded a patrol team of black-clothed guards, he ordered the Mother Empress to stop in the lush woods. He summoned the Dark Dragon King, the Thousand-Faced Mink, and other elites of the Magical Beast Army, then ordered the Corpse Wizard King to seal off the woods atop the mountain’s peak with their combined power. Then, he took action with the three best elites: the Golden Roc, the Black-Horned Demon, and the Mother Empress. They rushed toward the Heavy Water Core Deity, who was carrying out secluded training in a palace atop the mountain’s peak. As for the Grand Wizard Houtu, who had a perfect Earth Evasion Spell, he stealthily opened a path in the front.

Thump!

The Grand Wizard Houtu launched a deadly strike and took a black-clothed guard’s Godhead. Quickly, he absorbed the guard’s Energy Essence and moved on. He instantly cast the Earth Evasion Spell to appear next to another black-clothed guard and followed the same pattern. He launched deadly strikes and swiftly opened a path. A High-level Divine Duty Expert wouldn’t even be able to sound the alarm in time upon facing this silent surprise attack, let alone counterattack.

“It’s awful!”

The black-clothed guards outside and inside the palace didn’t detect the looming danger, but a black-robed middle-aged man in the depths of the towering palace had suddenly detected something. He opened his eyes. His eyes flickered like lightning, and his tremendous Divine Consciousness spread out like a tide. He quickly discovered Yang Ling’s team, which was closing in on him swiftly.

“Great Wizard World!”

Yang Ling realized that the Heavy Water Core Deity had discovered their teams through his Soul Ripples. This was why he let out a shout and wove Wizard Seals to cast the Great Wizard World Spell. He enveloped the whole mountain’s peak with the spell, then teleported next to the Heavy Water Core Deity with the Earth Evasion Spell. The Mother Empress, the Golden Roc, and the Black-Horned Demon advanced steadily, and the Grand Wizard Houtu hunted down the black-clothed guards atop the mountain’s peak at the highest speed possible. As for the Corpse Wizard King, he commanded the Magical Beast Army and stealthily sealed off the mountain’s peak. He also stood guard against anyone that would try to rush out and sound the alarm.

Buzz!

The sharp Battle Soul Blade turned into a beam of black light, flying swiftly toward the throat of the black-robed man, Pusius. The blade was accompanied by an overwhelming murderous aura, and many appalling serpentine lightning arcs surrounded it. It also radiated a strange scarlet ray.

Without the least bit of hesitation, Yang Ling launched his strongest attack to kill his target with a single strike and annex the Heavy Water Domain. He didn’t leave the Heavy Water Core Deity any chance to call his soldiers.

“Heavy Water Domain!”

When Pusius saw the Battle Soul Blade appear swiftly in front of him, his pupils contracted, and he retreated swiftly. Meanwhile, many black water drops appeared in the air. They assembled together. Then, they separated into two parts. One of them turned into rain arrows that filled the sky and flew toward Yang Ling. The other part turned into an armor that protected the vital regions of Pusius’s body. He was trying to block Yang Ling’s attack!

“Humph, you really have a death wish!”

Yang Ling snorted coldly and ignored the sizzling rain arrows that filled the sky. He gritted his teeth and sped up again. After he’d become a Wizard God, his body had been strengthened greatly, and it was already harder than a Divine Weapon. His body was very strong, much tougher than ordinary powerhouses’ bodies.

“Ah!”

Both sides were as swift as lightning, and they instantly exchanged hits, then let out soft groans. Yang Ling assumed that his powerful body could take the rain arrows head-on, but every drop of water weighed more than 10,000 pounds. It was as though a whip was lashing his body. His whole body filled with intense pain. Still, the black-robed man’s situation was more miserable. His strong armor was destroyed by Yang Ling’s Battle Soul Blade. He got out of the way just in time, and the blade missed his throat, but it still slashed his chest. Yang Ling made a long and deep wound on his torso. Rivers of blood gushed out of it!

“Is this the heavy water of the legends?”

Yang Ling looked in surprise at the strange black water floating in the air, which weighed more than 10,000 pounds. He let out a shout before he raising his blade and charging again. He didn’t leave the black-robed man any chance to escape or counterattack. As long as he could delay him for another moment, the Mother Empress, the Golden Roc, and the Black-Horned Demon would have time to join hands and attack him. As long as he could delay him for another moment, the Grand Wizard Houtu, atop the peak, would exterminate all the guards.

“You... who are you?”

After the black-robed man narrowly dodged Yang Ling’s sharp blade, he was both startled and angered. He gnashed his teeth before covering his wound with his hand and retreating in panic. He couldn’t think when he might have offended such a terrifying enemy as Yang Ling. When he tried to escape, he faced another fierce attack. Yang Ling had attacked him again without uttering a single word.

He also didn’t expect what would happen next. When he was cornered and about to risk his life to launch a counterattack, a large hole suddenly opened up in the hard wall behind him, and sharp large claws instantly pierced his chest. The Shadowless Whip coiled around his neck. He couldn’t even cry out for help before his larynx was broken by its force.

At this crucial juncture, the Mother Empress, the Golden Roc, and the Black-Horned Demon had finally joined hands and rushed in!
