Chapter 254 Great Victory
White Flood Dragon King said reverently, "Your Majesty, then please allow me to subjugate some of my kin! The Blue Sky Sea domain is vast, and apart from the Flood Dragon Palace, there are other powerful sea tribes. As the Flood Dragon Palace declines, naturally other sea tribes will encroach on its territory.
If Your Majesty supports me as the Palace Master of the Flood Dragon Palace, I can be driven by Your Majesty, offering up sea treasures year after year."
"Your Majesty need not worry about hunting those demon beasts and Demon Cores yourself, I can have the Flood Dragon Palace hunt the sea demons for you. Hunting sea beasts is something our sea tribe can do with greater convenience!"
Zhao Yu pondered briefly before saying, "Good! You may go!"
Indeed, as the White Flood Dragon King had said, the islands of the Blue Sky Sea were the strongholds of the human race, while the ocean depths were the domain of the Ocean Demon Race.
The strength of Zhao Yu's subordinates, the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and the Red Emperor, would be reduced by more than fifty percent once they entered the sea. The White Ghost Emperor, being a top-tier Ghost, would also have its strength reduced by about half.
If Zhao Yu's true body entered the sea, his strength would likewise be reduced by more than fifty percent, and his Heavenly Separation True Fire Divine Power could only exert one to two-tenths of its potency in the seawater.
The White Flood Dragon King flew directly out of the ruins of the Yellow Emperor Sect, took to the sky, and roared loudly: "The Black Flood Dragon Emperor is dead, from now on, I, the White Flood Dragon King, am the master of the Flood Dragon Palace! Those who wish to live, come to me!"
Upon hearing the news of the Black Flood Dragon Emperor's death, the morale of those powerful members of the demon race collapsed. Some began to scatter in all directions, while others fled to the White Flood Dragon King's banner.
Zhao Yu ordered the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor, the Red Emperor, the Golden Spirit True Monarch, the Withered Wood True Monarch, and the Luo Sheng True Monarch—his five powerful subordinates—to attack and eliminate the powerful demons of the demon race.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Although the Nine Extremes Corpse Emperor and the other four had fought intense battles and their mana was greatly depleted, they could still effortlessly annihilate those Third Order demon race powerhouses.

The Third Order demons who refused to join the ranks of the White Flood Dragon King suffered heavy casualties under the relentless assault by Zhao Yu's five powerful subordinates.
The White Ghost Emperor stood quietly beside Zhao Yu, safeguarding him. With its protection, even if a great cultivator were to attempt a sneak attack on Zhao Yu, they would meet their end.
With greasy hands, Daoist Wu Chen accepted the token: "City Lord Zhao, even without us, you could have dealt with Jiao Shen Palace by yourself. We weren't much help!"
Zhao Yu said, "No! If not for your intervention, many under my command would have perished. Thanks to you, they were able to survive!"
With Jiao Shen Palace's full-scale attack, Zhao Yu was under immense pressure. He had to use all his strength just to suppress the fifteen Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation. If another seven or eight Fourth-Order Great Demons of Transformation had appeared, the Mountainous Profound Light Great Array would not have been able to contain them.
If Daoist Wu Chen and the others had not come, Zhao Yu would have had to employ True Lord Kumu and True Lord Luosheng, the two great Nascent Soul Cultivators, to kill the Third Order experts of Jiao Shen Palace, and many cultivators would have died, as the numbers of demons and Demon Beasts were simply too great. Even if Zhao Yu had been victorious, it would have been a pyrrhic victory.
"Then I'll gladly accept! Zhao Yu, you're a pretty good fellow! Haha!"
Daoist Wu Chen, his face flushed from drinking, didn't mind at all and pocketed the token, continuing to enjoy the good wine and good food. His nature was such that he delighted in slaying demons and exorcising ghosts, and it was this very nature that earned him many Nascent Soul friends.
Late at night, within the Wanqi Hall of Jiao Shen Palace.
"What? Black Jiao Emperor has fallen in battle, White Jiao King has turned traitor, and not a single one of the fifteen Fourth Order experts returned from there! How is that possible? How could a mere early-stage human Nascent Soul cultivator kill so many Fourth Order experts? Are you deceiving us?"
Sitting on a throne, Chiling Jiao King looked down at a crab demon, eyes flashing with disbelief, as he barked sharply.
The crab demon knelt and respectfully said: "How would I dare deceive the great king? This matter is absolutely true. The great king can inquire with others to find my words are not false!"
Coolly, Huang Jiao King remarked, "If it is not lying! Then there is only one explanation, Zhao Yu must be a top-tier Array Master! That ancient site must have been fortified with terrifying formations by him! The human race's formations are notoriously difficult to deal with!"
The Blue Sky Sea was exceedingly vast and nurtured many powerful demons and beasts deep beneath its waters. The number of such demon races was more than a hundred times that of the human race, not to mention the Demon Beasts.
The reason human cultivators could maintain a foothold in the Blue Sky Sea realm and firmly occupy many Spirit Islands was that human cultivators were adept at all sorts of formations. Those top Nascent Soul Powers' headquarters were all protected by Fourth-Order Great Formations, making it very difficult for the Ocean Demon Race to take down those human Nascent Soul Powers' headquarters.
Moreover, with the Ocean Demon Race also harboring internal conflicts and territorial disputes, human cultivators were able to occupy many Spirit Islands within the Blue Sky Sea realm.
