Overlord of the Wilderness

”Strike!”

A mystical sound suddenly appeared. It seemed both infinitely long and infinitely short, as if born from nothingness, yet as tangible as a Sharp Sword!

The strangest part was that this mystical sound didn’t come from Shui Daimai. It came from the sea snail in her hand! The pure white sea snail could actually speak, just like a person!

The Flower King’s Cultivation was higher than Shui Daimai’s, but even he was startled by this bizarre attack. He abruptly unfurled his Red Jade Folding Fan, which transformed into a sky of red clouds.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The moment the Flower King’s Red Jade Folding Fan opened, dozens of terrifying forces bombarded it. In that brief instant, Shui Daimai had actually launched dozens of attacks!

”What a marvelous Sound Realm! To think it can turn the formless into the tangible and attack at will. However, there is absolutely no way you’re escaping my grasp today!”

Seeing Shui Daimai’s astonishing strength, the Flower King showed no fear. Instead, he grew even more interested, and the battle intent radiating from him intensified.

”Suppress!”

The Flower King roared, thrusting out his Red Jade Folding Fan. The space within a radius of several miles suddenly turned scarlet. A terrifying power instantly sealed the void, pressing down on Shui Daimai!

Shui Daimai’s expression turned grave. The Flower King’s combat prowess far exceeded her expectations. The ability to suppress miles of empty space with a wave of his hand was terrifying to the extreme. If she made a single misstep, she would be immediately imprisoned by that dreadful power. Even with her formidable Cultivation, she wouldn’t be able to break free in time!

WHOOSH!

Amidst the scarlet expanse, Shui Daimai’s long hair slowly floated up. She swung the sea snail in her hand at a mystical angle, and an ice-cold voice emerged from within it: ”Break! Break! Break! Break! Break!”

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Along with the sound, a tremendous power violently slammed against the Flower King’s seal. As the two immense forces clashed, cracks spiderwebbed across the land for dozens of miles. A nearby lake was thrown into turmoil as millions of pounds of its water were blasted into the sky by the terrifying force!

The Flower King sealed space to suppress the heavens and the earth. Shui Daimai directly shattered his seal and broke free.

After the direct collision, both retreated a hundred zhang in unison, a trickle of blood seeping from the corners of their mouths. Clearly, they had both been injured in that last exchange.

Forced back by Shui Daimai, the Flower King’s expression darkened. He stared at her and said, ”Good, good! It seems I won’t be able to take you down without using my true strength!”

BOOM!

The Flower King took a sudden step forward, his eyes erupting with brilliant light as the aura around him soared. In the blink of an eye, he seemed to become a raging inferno, a blazing sun radiating light and heat. A scorching temperature enveloped the area for several miles, and even the ground began to spark!

Shui Daimai was slightly taken aback. ”The Fire Realm?”

After unleashing his Fire Realm, the Flower King became ferocious. His shoulder-length hair danced wildly in the wind, giving him a strange, captivating charm. Seeing Shui Daimai’s surprise, he smiled faintly. ”Precisely! My dear beauty, let’s see how you’ll withstand my Fire Realm! Nine Dragon Alchemy Array, go!”

Following the Flower King’s roar, nine azure fire dragons shot forth. These nine azure dragons combined to form a mystical array—the Ancient Array known as the Nine Dragon Alchemy Array!

The Nine Dragon Alchemy Array was formed from nine fire dragons. The temperature of the fire dragons the Flower King unleashed was already terrifyingly high. But once they formed the array, that temperature multiplied dozens of times over, capable of smelting ten thousand jin of iron ore in the blink of an eye!

Just as the Nine Dragon Alchemy Array was about to envelop Shui Daimai, she let out a soft hum. Her figure, moving with the sound, suddenly vanished from her spot!

RUMBLE!

The array the Flower King had unleashed was immensely powerful, but this mighty array couldn’t find its target.

The Flower King’s pupils shrank. ”Sound Manipulation Movement?”

Shui Daimai’s voice drifted over. ”Precisely! Flower King, your attacks may be formidable, but they are useless against me. In the Sound Realm I’ve comprehended, wherever there is sound, I can hide my form. I can use Sound Manipulation Movement.”

As Shui Daimai spoke, a finger suddenly materialized in the air. It lightly tapped the Nine Dragon Alchemy Array, instantly knocking it aside.

BOOM!!!

The Nine Dragon Alchemy Array plunged into the lake. The terrifying heat instantly vaporized millions of pounds of water. The violently expanding steam blasted outwards in all directions. Lightning flashed and thunder roared across the lake. For a thousand li, the terrifying steam blast caused mountains to collapse and rivers to run dry. The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi for tens of thousands of li churned violently.

WAA! WAA! WAA! WAA! WAA!

The Flower King and Shui Daimai faced each other once more. Just then, a series of cries like a wailing infant came from the depths of the lake. Before either of them could react, a black sphere of water suddenly flew up from the lake!

As the black sphere of water ascended, an incredibly dense Water Spirit Qi instantly filled the air. The Flower King and Shui Daimai stared at the black sphere and cried out in unison, ”The Water Origin!”

It turned out this massive lake was situated at the very center of the Land of Water. A Water Origin had appeared within it. Judging by the sounds it made, the Water Origin had already gained its own consciousness and was about to undergo Transformation!

The Water Origin had been resting peacefully beneath the lake, but the fierce battle between the Flower King and Shui Daimai had disturbed it. And so, this nascent Water Origin had fled from the lake’s depths!

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Upon seeing the Water Origin, neither the Flower King nor Shui Daimai had any intention of fighting anymore. With a simultaneous shout, they each used their Body Technique and gave chase!

The Flower King had comprehended the Fire Realm. If he could obtain the Water Origin, he would be able to comprehend the Water Realm in a short amount of time. Therefore, this Water Origin was an opportunity he absolutely could not miss!

Shui Daimai was already struggling to comprehend the Water Realm. To her, the Water Origin was a gift from the heavens. There was no way she could let it go!

BOOM! BOOM!

The two young titans gave chase, attacking each other as they went. The Flower King knew clearly that Shui Daimai was his greatest rival. To successfully obtain the Water Origin, he had to defeat her. Shui Daimai held the exact same thought; both intended to defeat their opponent and claim the Water Origin for themselves.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Flower King and Shui Daimai engaged in close-quarters combat where nearly every move was a direct clash. The battle was exceptionally brutal. After just three heavy blows, both were severely injured. Shui Daimai’s Cultivation was lower, so her injuries were relatively more severe. After three hits, Blood Pearls had even begun to seep from her skin.

Shui Daimai knew she was no match for the Flower King in a direct confrontation, so she let out a long cry. Her body followed the sound of her cry, shooting straight forward at a speed that far surpassed the Flower King’s!

Sound Manipulation Flight!

The formless sound was Shui Daimai’s wings. As fast as sound traveled, so did she! The sound she produced with her True Essence was a hundred times faster than ordinary sound, and thus her flight speed was also a hundred times faster!

Seeing Shui Daimai fly faster and faster, the Flower King grew anxious. He roared and thrust his palm out from a distance. His Innate True Qi shot out like a rope, attempting to ensnare her.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Harassed by the Flower King, Shui Daimai could no longer fly smoothly. She had no choice but to wave the sea snail in her hand, emitting waves of sound to break his attacks.

While the two young titans were entangled, the Water Origin flew faster and faster. It traveled hundreds of li away before diving toward a massive lake, preparing to make a new home there.

”Hee hee, it’s actually a Water Origin!”

Just as the Water Origin was about to dive into the lake, a small young girl suddenly arrived from the distance. She was exceptionally beautiful and wreathed in blazing flames. It was the Fire Spirit.

It turned out that the fierce battle between the Flower King and Shui Daimai had awakened the Fire Spirit. Driven by curiosity, the Fire Spirit immediately abandoned her Cultivation and rushed toward the site of the battle, running right into the Water Origin!

”Little guy, you’ll be with me from now on!”

The Fire Spirit giggled, and her figure abruptly appeared in front of the Water Origin.

Water counters fire, but fire can also counter water. The Fire Spirit’s strength far surpassed the Water Origin’s. Sensing the Fire Spirit’s immense power, the Water Origin began to tremble all over, terrified.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Just as the Fire Spirit met the Water Origin, the Flower King and Shui Daimai finally arrived, over two hundred li away. Their gazes swept the area, and they were first stunned to see a young girl next to the Water Origin, then cried out in unison, ”An anomaly! This is an anomaly born from flames!”

The two young titans were ecstatic. They simultaneously quickened their Body Techniques and flew toward the Fire Spirit and the Water Origin.

The Fire Spirit was startled and threatened the Water Origin, ”Hurry up and come with me! Or I’ll burn you to a crisp!”

The Water Origin had only just gained consciousness, like a newborn infant. Under the Fire Spirit’s threat, it obediently stopped struggling and flew into the distance with her.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The Fire Spirit and the Water Origin fled frantically. Behind them, the Flower King and Shui Daimai pushed their Body Techniques to the limit, chasing closely, intending to subdue both the Fire Spirit and the Water Origin.
