639 Hailong

The group had sat down and began to adjust their state to their best condition. Their breaths were calm and controlled, but although they seemed to relax, they still kept vigilant and never relaxed their nerves.

Even so, the surroundings stayed as before, and nothing dangerous seemed to approach. Hours went by and soon the moon illuminated the night sky as the sun had retreated behind the horizon.

As the darkness engulfed the final rays of sunlight, the chaotic waves in the strait also slowly seemed to settle down, and the gushing waters became as silent and clear as a mirror.

Xue Wei and the others were still regulating their condition, but the strange change made all of them awaken from their meditation.

“Do you think that the easiest time to pass the waters is during the night?” Ling Xiao could not help but ponder as he looked at the still surface which was reflecting the beautiful starry sky above.

“No.” Xue Wei’s voice was firm and decisive. Although the surroundings would appear to have been soothed, he could not help but feel that the current situation was much more dangerous than earlier during the day.

Although the chaotic and powerful waves were dangerous and full of crisis, he could not help but feel that the current dangers were much more than that. It was easier to guard against a visible enemy than one hiding at an unknown location, lurking and ready to move their hands.

“I feel that, right now, the strait is many times more threatening than during the day.” It was not only Xue Wei who was feeling uneasy with the sudden change, even Hei Gou could feel his senses tingling as he felt approaching danger.

Beasts always had an acute sense of danger, as their instincts had been honed through countless years of evolution.

.....

“Should we retreat?” Bai Tianyi was a bit hesitant as he spoke. Although he also felt that the current surrounding was somewhat odd, he did not have as sensitive a feeling towards approaching dangers, and his core had been corrupted earlier, making him still feel somewhat unable to fully merge with the aura in the air.

“Not yet. Let us look at the changes as they appear.” Xue Wei glanced at the riverbank and also looked at the sandy beach leading down to the water, but it all seemed as tranquil as a painting, however, the threatening aura seemed to approach rapidly.

“Gather together.” As Xue Wei called out, all four of them stood up and protected each other’s backs. Hei Gou and Xue Wei were standing back to back, while Bai Tianyi and Ling Xiao also protected the backs of the other.

They knew that with the current atmosphere, it would no longer be possible for them to cultivate and relax their minds, so instead of wasting their time, it was better to simply prepare for battle.

“Hey, Wei, why don’t you transform into an Azure Dragon. Your full body transformation is making you massive, and although you are the descendant of a Sovereign Beast, you won’t die from becoming our mount once in a while.” Ling Xiao could feel how his palms were getting sweaty as he tightened his grip on the staff within his hands.

He looked around, and the playful gleam in his eyes had turned solemn as he joked. He knew that his suggestion was not possible, but he still wanted to try and lighten the mood.

It was not because of pride that Xue Wei had not turned into an Azure Dragon and given them a lift, but because there was something strange in the waters that seemed to block not on the waves and undercurrents but also the air above. It would make no difference whether they were on board a ship or on top of Xue Wei’s dragon back, so the ship would provide more security, as it was usually adorned with inscriptions and formations – both defensive and offensive.

“It’s here.” Xue Wei’s voice was not loud, but the short sentence was enough to cause all the nerves to tense and all weapons to be grasped tightly as they looked around, eager to defend against whatever might appear.

“It is a Hailong, a sea dragon!” Xue Wei’s voice had become solemn and his hands had already begun to transform into dragon claws. Scales sprouted on his skin and created a protective armor across his body, while his nails became sharp claws, ready to attack at any moment.

“If it is a dragon, shouldn’t you have an upper hand when it comes to identity?” Ling Xiao was trained as a Diviner, and he knew that the bloodline pressure that the Sovereign Beast held over other beasts could not be easily ignored, but even though he asked like this, he did not hold much hope in his heart. Looking at the serious expression on Xue Wei’s face, it was not likely that he could overwhelm the dragon that was lurking in the sea.

“It is not from our world. My bloodline is completely useless against this dragon.” Xue Wei could not help but knit his brows in frustration. Although he had known that there would be some kind of danger, the Sea Dragon was not what he had expected.

“It is strong.” Bai Tianyi’s voice had also become dignified as he could not help but take a deep breath. Although he was not able to completely merge with the aura yet, he could still feel the energy ripples made by the dragon in the sea. It was more powerful than any of them.
