I, the Villain, Become Invincible the More Descendants I Have

Chapter 63 Infiltrating and Stealing the HouseThe Great Xuan Navy sailed majestically to the outside of the Water Curtain Array. Looking out, the entire East Sea was enveloped by a transparent blue water curtain, with ancient runes flowing across its surface. Countless soldiers of the Sea Clan were moving within the formation, exuding a murderous aura.

Li Tieniu looked at the sky-covering formation and clicked his tongue, saying, ”Damn, this formation looks even more intimidating than Gu King’s Thousand-Mile Gu Array! Emperor Xuan, are we really going to charge in head-on? I heard this Water Curtain Array can draw water from the four seas; once we enter, we’ll be crushed into meat paste in an instant!”

”Charge in? That lacks technical skill.” Emperor Cao Xukun stuffed his hands into his pockets, looking disdainful. ”That kid Sea Emperor Hai Wuya thinks he’s safe hiding in a turtle shell? He forgot that my specialty is home invasion. You all wait here; I’ll be back shortly.”

”You can’t be serious, Emperor Xuan! You’re going to break into the Sea God Palace alone?” Li Tieniu grew anxious. ”That’s too dangerous! How about I go with you? At least I can provide support!”

”Forget it, you’ll only hold me back if you come.” Emperor Cao Xukun patted his shoulder. ”Watch the army and don’t run around. I’ll be back in an hour, and I’ll bring a ’surprise’ for Sea Emperor Hai Wuya along the way.”

Before he finished speaking, he silently chanted ’Spatial Teleportation’, and his entire figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Meanwhile, inside the Sea God Palace, Sea Emperor Hai Wuya was drinking with his legs crossed, accompanied by the three kings of the Sea Clan, all of them looking triumphant.

”Hahaha! That idiot Emperor Cao Xukun actually dares to come and seek death!” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya downed his cup of wine, full of arrogance. ”With my Water Curtain Array here, his three hundred thousand troops are just here to offer their heads! Once they charge into the formation, I will trigger a tsunami to drown them all, then take advantage of the momentum to head north, flatten Luoyang, and seize his empire!”

”His Majesty the Sea Emperor is wise!” the Shark Clan King said flatteringly. ”How could Emperor Cao Xukun possibly be your match? You are the reincarnation of the Sea God, destined to rule! When you become the master of the world, our three Sea Clans will be the founding heroes!”

”That goes without saying.” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya lifted his chin proudly. ”Once I destroy Emperor Cao Xukun, I’ll capture all his wives and make them my concubines! His treasures will all be mine as well!”

He was lost in his wild dreams, completely unaware that a black shadow had already silently infiltrated the treasure vault of the Sea God Palace.

Emperor Cao Xukun stood in the center of the treasure vault, which was piled high with pearls and gems. At a glance, he saw the sea god trident and the sea god pearl suspended in mid-air. Both divine artifacts emitted a dazzling blue light, surrounded by a dozen ancient restrictions.

”You think these measly restrictions can stop me?” Emperor Cao Xukun sneered and waved his hand. Chaos Spiritual Power surged out, and the dozen restrictions shattered instantly as if made of paper.

He reached out and grabbed the sea god trident and the sea god pearl. A cold sensation touched his skin, and a surge of pure water-elemental divine power flooded into his body.

[Ding! Successfully intercepted the sea god trident! Obtained ancient sea god power!]

[Ding! Successfully intercepted the sea god pearl! Obtained control over the Water Curtain Array!]

[Ding! Unlocked primary water-elemental ability: Water Control!]

”Good heavens, this is a huge profit!” Emperor Cao Xukun weighed the trident in his hand, grinning from ear to ear. ”That kid Sea Emperor Hai Wuya is truly a qualified employee; not only did he save up treasures for me, but he also built the formation for me. It’s essentially home delivery.”

Carrying the sea god pearl, he teleported directly to the core eye of the Water Curtain Array. In the center of the eye, a massive water sphere was slowly rotating, maintaining the operation of the entire formation.

”Break!”

Emperor Cao Xukun infused his Chaos Spiritual Power into the sea god pearl and tapped lightly against the water sphere.

”Crack—!” The massive water sphere shattered instantly, and countless cracks spread across it. The Water Curtain Array that enveloped the entire East Sea began to shake violently, its blue light flickering on and off. The Sea Clan soldiers within the formation instantly lost their sense of direction and fell into chaos.

”No! My array!”

Inside the Sea God Palace, Sea Emperor Hai Wuya violently spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale. He could clearly feel that his connection to the Water Curtain Array had been completely severed, and along with it, the augmentation of the sea god power was rapidly draining away.

”What is going on?! How could the array suddenly collapse?!” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya screamed like a madman. ”Go to the treasure vault and check! My sea god trident and sea god pearl!”

His subordinates rushed toward the treasure vault, and before long, they ran back in a panic: ”Your Majesty the Sea Emperor! It’s bad! Someone broke into the treasure vault! The sea god trident and the sea god pearl are gone!”

”What?!” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya’s vision went dark, and he nearly fainted. He stumbled back a few steps and collapsed onto his throne, his face filled with disbelief.

”Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! The Sea God Palace is heavily guarded and protected by ancient restrictions; how could anyone have silently broken in and stolen the divine artifacts?!”

Just then, Emperor Cao Xukun’s voice pierced through the palace and resounded across the entire East Sea: ”Sea Emperor Hai Wuya, stop looking; your treasures are with me.”

Sea Emperor Hai Wuya looked up abruptly to see Emperor Cao Xukun standing on air, hovering above the Sea God Palace, holding the sea god pearl in his left hand and brandishing the sea god trident in his right, looking down at him with a playful expression.

”Thank you, Your Majesty the Sea Emperor, for gifting me these two wonderful presents. This Water Curtain Array of yours is indeed decent, but the quality is a bit poor; it shatters at a single touch.”

”Emperor Cao Xukun! It was you!” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya trembled with rage, his eyes turning blood-red. ”You thief! How dare you steal my divine artifacts! I will never forgive you!”

”Thief? You shouldn’t speak so carelessly.” Emperor Cao Xukun raised an eyebrow. ”These divine artifacts are ownerless; whoever obtains them is their master. Besides, if you can steal the Sea God inheritance, why can’t I steal your divine artifacts? It’s all about reciprocity.”

Seeing that the formation had been broken from afar, Li Tieniu jumped with excitement: ”Emperor Xuan is awesome! This home-invasion technique is too incredible! He practically stole the pants right off Sea Emperor Hai Wuya!”

The soldiers of the Great Xuan Navy also cheered, their morale greatly boosted.

Sea Emperor Hai Wuya looked at the divine artifacts in Emperor Cao Xukun’s hands, then at the collapsing array, and finally at his panicked subordinates, and was so furious that he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Without the sea god trident and the sea god pearl, he lost the augmentation of the sea god power, and his cultivation level dropped directly back to the peak of the Yuan Ying stage, not even reaching the Void Refinement stage.

”Retreat! Retreat quickly! Fall back to the inner palace!” Sea Emperor Hai Wuya shouted in a panic. ”Pass on my order! Assemble the entire million-strong Sea Clan army and defend the Sea God Palace to the death!”

”Want to run? Too late.” Emperor Cao Xukun sneered, brandishing the sea god trident and pointing it toward the sea surface.

A monstrous wave surged up instantly, directly smashing the gates of the Sea God Palace.

”Sea Emperor Hai Wuya, stop struggling. Your doomsday has arrived.”

”This time tomorrow will be your death day.”

Emperor Cao Xukun turned and flew back to the army, leaving Sea Emperor Hai Wuya inside the palace, smashing things in a fit of rage.

Li Tieniu leaned in and chuckled: ”Emperor Xuan, that move of yours was just too brilliant! You turned Sea Emperor Hai Wuya into a cripple! Tomorrow we can flatten the Sea God Palace and catch this kid to feed the fish!”

”That goes without saying.” Emperor Cao Xukun toyed with the sea god pearl, looking calm. ”Let him live one more night today, and let him properly experience the taste of despair. Tomorrow, we will completely resolve the affairs of the East Sea, and then return to Luoyang to eat roast whole lamb.”

Night fell, and the surface of the East Sea was calm.

But everyone knew that beneath this calm, an earth-shattering battle was brewing.
