Chapter 557: Sea Clan Pursuit

In the Mountain-Sea World, dark clouds rolled and heavy rain poured, covering the entire world.

This heavy rain was not ordinary rainwater. Over the years, the rising waters of the Boundary Sea and the constant collisions with Wushan Island produced thick mist, rose into the sky, condensed into clouds, and turned into rain!

The heavy rain had been falling for so long that almost all living beings had almost forgotten what a sunny day looked like, forgetting the appearance of the sun and moon.

Above a dense forest near the sea in Dongshan Prefecture, a group of people hurriedly flew through the rain.

There were over ten people in this group, both men and women, old and young. Most of them were skilled in the Blessed Land Realm. Their faces, covered in rain, showed panic as they flew forward without looking back.

Because behind them, there were nearly thirty Sea clan members chasing after them.

With the alliance of the three major forces, the Sea clan was no longer confined to just living in the Boundary Sea.

Especially in Dongshan Prefecture and North Mountain, while the Sea clan’s presence wasn’t everywhere, it was definitely significant.

Wherever the Sea clan appeared, it meant slaughter and death.

The Sea clan seemed to harbor hatred towards land-dwellers, especially humans, never giving them a chance to surrender but choosing to kill on sight.

Now, the Sea clan wore sinister smiles as they chased after the group of humans ahead.

"Grandpa, please put me down!"

In the group of people, there was a pale-faced boy around eleven or twelve years old, looking at the elderly man holding him, and whispered softly.

The old man’s body was shaking slightly. They had been running for nearly a day and night, and his spirit energy was almost depleted.

Hearing the boy’s words at this moment, a faint smile appeared on the old man’s face as he said, "Good boy, Grandpa can still hold you!"

A middle-aged man beside the old man gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, let me hold him!"

Looking at his pale-faced son, the old man hesitated for a moment, then handed the boy to him, saying, "Okay, I’ll buy you some time!"

The middle-aged man’s face suddenly stiffened as he asked, "Dad, what are you going to do?"

The old man pushed the man hard and stopped himself abruptly in mid-air, shouting, "Go quickly!"

The man suddenly realized that his father was sacrificing himself to delay the Sea clan, buying time for himself and the others.

But as a child, how could he bear to watch his own father sacrifice himself? He looked around for help from the others.

There were more than ten people, they didn’t know each other, they met on the way while running away.

At that moment, even though the others saw the man’s gaze, they pretended not to see him and kept flying forward.

Staying behind meant certain death!

Seeing everyone hastening away and the figure getting farther, the man’s face showed a bitter smile, he looked down at the boy in his arms and asked, "Son, are you afraid of death?"

The little boy tightly clenched his fists, shook his head and said, "Not afraid!"

"Good, you are truly my son!"

The son’s words made the man laugh heartily, then he suddenly changed direction, flying back towards the old man.

Seeing his son returning, the old man’s eyes widened in surprise and he asked, "Why are you back?"

"Dad, if we don’t come back, where else can we go? Do you really want to fly all the way to Zhongshan Province?"

The man’s face showed a helpless smile and said, "Besides, even if we reach Zhongshan Province, we might not be able to pass the barriers set by Samsara Sect."

"Either way, it’s death. We might as well all die together today!"

The man’s words made the elder fall silent, as he knew his son was speaking the truth.

Nowadays, the teleportation arrays between the various provinces have either been destroyed or guarded by powerful forces. Entering a teleportation array requires paying a hefty fee.

His family had nothing of value on them at all.

Without using a teleportation array, trying to fly all the way from Dongshan Prefecture to North Mountain would be a joke, even without being chased by the Sea clan.

Thinking about this, the elder gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, today my family spanning three generations will face death together."

While the three were talking, over thirty Sea clan members had flown close by. The leader, a Sea clan member with unfamiliar scales, sneered and said, "Why aren’t you running?"

"Die!"

The old man didn’t waste any time talking and instead, he opened his hands, drew a circle in front of him, within which shimmering waves appeared, and suddenly a handful of lake water surged forward.

The leader of the Sea clan burst into laughter, "Haha, using water magic against us, the Sea clan. It seems like you’ve lived quite a long life!"

In the next moment, the old man pushed off with his toes in the air, shooting out like an arrow released from a bow.

With incredible speed, he quickly caught up to the circular shape, mysteriously slipping into it and finding himself on the surface of the lake.

At that moment, a determined look appeared on the old man’s face, "Sea clan, perish with me!"

Once he said this, the old man raised his hand and slapped his own soul, producing a loud "bang" sound as his soul exploded, blood gushing out like a fountain, staining the surrounding lake red.

"Father!"

"Grandfather!"

Witnessing this scene, the middle-aged man and the boy both cried out in shock. They couldn’t believe that even at this extreme moment, the old man was still fighting for their survival.

"Buzz!"

The blood-stained lake suddenly surged up, expanding to a hundred feet in all directions, completely engulfing the thirty or so Sea Clan members.

Surprisingly, the old man was still alive. He stretched out his hands and firmly grasped the leader of the Sea Clan’s neck, his aged face covered in blood, giving him a fierce appearance.

The Sea Clan members clearly did not expect that this elderly man who only had the power of the Blessed Land Realm could still use such mysterious magic. Caught off guard, they were all tightly surrounded by the lake, struggling as if trapped in quicksand.

The leader of the Sea Clan, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets, reached out with difficulty and ruthlessly struck the old man’s chest with his palm, piercing through his body.

The old man finally died, but even so, his hand did not loosen at all, still gripping the other’s neck like a pair of iron tongs.

Eventually, the Sea Clan had no choice. With both hands, they forcibly tore the old man’s arms directly off his body, finally catching a break.

Looking at his trapped fellow clan members, he cursed fiercely, "Bunch of useless weaklings!"

After saying this, he ignored his companions and with force, threw off the old man’s arms, glaring viciously at the middle-aged man who had not escaped, "You humans, all deserve to die!"

"Your dad wants to go down with us, but that’s just a dream. Don’t worry, I won’t let you and your dad die too soon, especially your son. I’ll take good care of him!"

The middle-aged man’s face was pale as paper, he looked down at his son and said softly, "Child, go after grandpa first. I’ll come later."

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand and forcefully slapped the boy’s head.

Clearly, he would rather kill his own son by himself than let his son fall into the hands of the Sea clan.

Just as his hand was about to come down, a black light suddenly appeared in the distant sky, revealing a dark hole in the light!
