Immortal Sword Master

Chapter 551: Chapter 546: Chaos Alliance, The Change Begins

”Are you that surprised to see me? Then again, in your mind, I’m supposed to be a dead man.”

The man in black sneered.

He was a stern-looking middle-aged man. His lean face was as sharp and defined as ancient jade, full of texture. However, his face had a sickly pallor, completely devoid of color.

”The Vice Palace Master of the Dragon God Celestial Palace, Bai Wuxue! Didn’t you die at the hands of the Other Shore all those years ago?!”

The Celestial Treasure King stared in disbelief at the man before him.

This man’s name was Bai Wuxue. More importantly, he was once the Vice Palace Master of the Dragon God Celestial Palace, and his strength had reached the Seven-Stars Level. But he had already died at the hands of the Other Shore.

It was because of that incident that the Undying Celestial King flew into a thunderous rage, going on a killing spree in the East Sea. He slaughtered more than a dozen Kings, and even an Eight-Stars King from the Other Shore fell as a result.

”That time, I truly was on the verge of death. But in the end, that great existence granted me a new life!”

A trace of reverence appeared in Bai Wuxue’s eyes. ”And after my rebirth, my strength has advanced even further. I have stepped into the Eight-Stars Level.”

”A great existence?” The Celestial Treasure King faltered. Then, as if realizing something, he said with a mix of shock and anger, ”Is it that thing beneath the Dark Sea Region?”

”Correct. It is that Lord!” Bai Wuxue didn’t hide it, admitting it openly.

”Bai Wuxue, you betrayed the Undying Celestial King? Why? The Undying Celestial King valued you so highly! Back then, you and Golden Cicada were the two prodigies he favored most. He spared no effort in cultivating you, yet now you do this. Where is your conscience?” the Celestial Treasure King berated him.

Bai Wuxue and Golden Cicada were from the same generation. They had once competed against each other, but in the end, Golden Cicada proved to be the more brilliant of the two, becoming a Celestial King of his generation.

”Hmph, don’t mention the Undying Celestial King to me. That old fool’s life is almost over. He’s clearly about to die, yet he’s still thinking about going to the Ancient Forbidden Land to find Golden Cicada, wanting him to take over the Dragon God Celestial Palace. What does he take me for? I’ve given so much for the Dragon God Celestial Palace. Did he ever once think of me?”

Bai Wuxue said, his gaze icy.

”I truly never would have thought that the great Bai Wuxue, the man who once stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Golden Cicada, would turn out to be such an ungrateful bastard. Now you’ve been reduced to being someone’s lapdog.”

The Celestial Treasure King shook his head, his face filled with disappointment.

”Celestial Treasure King, there’s no need for your sarcasm. A wise bird chooses its tree. It’s the nature of all living things. Besides, that Lord has promised that in the future, he will allow me to glimpse the Realm of a Celestial King. The Realm Golden Cicada reached, I, Bai Wuxue, can reach it as well!”

Bai Wuxue declared proudly, flicking his wide sleeve.

”It seems Golden Cicada has always been a thorn in your side. You’re far too jealous of his achievements. With such a disposition, I don’t believe you can ever step into the rank of a Celestial King,” the Celestial Treasure King said, shaking his head.

”Whether you believe it or not, the Undying Celestial King will become a thing of the past. A new era is coming!” Bai Wuxue’s eyes narrowed as he said, ”Flood Dragon King, you heard him. He’s one of the Undying Celestial King’s men!”

”Celestial Treasure King, you certainly hid yourself well!” The Flood Dragon King stared at the Celestial Treasure King, his gaze cold. He truly hadn’t known about this matter.

Only someone like Bai Wuxue could know such a secret. After all, he was once the Vice Palace Master of the Dragon God Celestial Palace and held the deep trust of the Undying Celestial King.

”Flood Dragon King, cooperating with the Other Shore is no different from asking a tiger for its skin! The foundation of any cooperation is built on equal strength. While your Flood Dragon Clan is powerful, you are still inferior to the Other Shore. Aren’t you afraid they’ll burn the bridge after crossing it?”

The Celestial Treasure King looked at the Flood Dragon King, attempting to sow discord.

The Flood Dragon King’s eyes flickered. He was naturally aware of this possibility. The Other Shore was like a venomous snake that might just turn around and bite him.

”You don’t need to worry about that. From this day forward, my Flood Dragon Clan will form an alliance with the major Sea Demon Clans and establish the Chaos Alliance! The East Sea will be ruled by my Chaos Alliance and the Other Shore together!”

The Flood Dragon King’s words were stunning.

”That’s right. My Three-headed Snake Clan has already joined the alliance.”

”My Blood Shark Clan is no exception.”

”My Water Ape Race...”

The next moment, more than a dozen figures appeared in the sky. These were none other than the ancestors of the major Sea Demon Clans, each one a renowned and powerful expert.

The ancestor of the Three-headed Snake Clan, for instance, was a preeminent figure among them, with his strength reaching the Seven-Stars Level, only a step weaker than the Flood Dragon King.

With so many Demon Race clans allied together to form the Chaos Alliance, their combined strength was enough to stand on equal footing with the Other Shore!

”Contacting the major Sea Demon Clans, forming an alliance... Flood Dragon King, you truly have your methods.”

The Celestial Treasure King stared deeply at the Flood Dragon King and said, ”I imagine you used that map of the Life Divine Spring to win everyone over, didn’t you?”

”Clever.”

The Flood Dragon King didn’t deny it. Indeed, the map of the Life Divine Spring had played a crucial role in roping in so many Demon Race clans at once.

He had shared the map to build this alliance.

This method had its pros and cons. The pro was that he could borrow the strength of all the clans to find the Life Divine Spring more quickly. The con was that after finding it, every clan would want a piece of the pie, and his Flood Dragon Clan wouldn’t be able to take it all for themselves.

”Celestial Treasure King, things have come to this. What else do you have to say?” The Flood Dragon King’s gaze was as sharp as a knife.

”Hmph, Flood Dragon King, don’t you all forget that the Undying Celestial King is still alive! Aren’t you afraid he’ll emerge and wash the East Sea in blood? You should understand that with the Undying Celestial King’s power, even if you all join forces, you won’t be able to withstand a Celestial King’s wrath!” the Celestial Treasure King warned.

The power of a single Celestial King was enough to suppress everything. Even if all the Kings of the East Sea combined their strength, they would be no match for the Undying Celestial King alone.

It was precisely because of this that the Dragon God Celestial Palace held its position as the number one power in the East Sea, and the Other Shore had only ever dared to lurk in the shadows, making minor moves in secret.

”HAHAHAHA! Celestial Treasure King, since we dared to make a move, we’ve already calculated for everything. The Undying Celestial King can’t even fend for himself right now, so how could he possibly have time to deal with us?”

The Flood Dragon King seethed with killing intent. ”Even if I kill you right now, I doubt the Undying Celestial King will show himself!”

As his voice fell, he threw a punch at the Celestial Treasure King.

BOOM!

That punch seemed to draw upon the Power of heaven and earth. A vast, ocean-like fluctuation converged on the Flood Dragon King’s fist. Throughout Celestial Treasure City, every Martial Artist felt this terrifying ripple of energy.

Instantly, countless Martial Artists with weaker Cultivation fainted on the spot. Even experts at the Heaven-Reaching Realm trembled, nearly forced to their knees.

What was even more terrifying was that Bai Wuxue and the other Kings from the various clans attacked at the same time!

In that instant, the sky changed color, the universe trembled, and the sun and moon seemed to fall.

Although the Celestial Treasure King’s strength had reached the level of a Seven-Stars King, there was no way he could block two Eight-Stars Kings, plus the combined attack of all the clan ancestors!

It could be said that his life now hung by a thread!

”Flood Dragon King! Bai Wuxue! It won’t be so easy to kill me! Power of the Treasure Tower, break!”

The Celestial Treasure King roared, and the giant tower shook violently, erupting with an unprecedentedly brilliant beam of light. ℯ

A great upheaval, with this as its starting point, had just begun!
