Cultivation: But Not a Game

Chapter 483 - 325: Return to the Old Land, Sea Serpent King Clan

PS: Brothers, it’s double monthly ticket time now, asking for a wave of monthly tickets.

Two days later, Su Yu left Grotto Heaven with the three Immortal Talismans given by Ye Lingfeng and teleported directly to Dragon Ao Immortal City through the Sect Transmission Array.

After lingering in the Immortal City for a short while, he spent nearly six thousand immortal coins to buy a large amount of array materials.

The ancient Teleportation Array had already been destroyed, whether to rebuild or construct anew, a large amount of materials was needed.

Coming out of Dragon Ao Immortal City heading east, he entered the vast ocean.

The last time he came was with Qingchan, but this time he was alone, directly activating the Primordial Magnet Radiant Escape to cross the sea at super fast speed, quickly leaving the near sea area, and entering the deep sea.

Following the path he took last time, it only took him five days to reach the airspace above the sea area where Canglan City is located.

He plunged into the sea, using the Water Escape Skill to blend into the ocean and disappear.

Less than ten thousand meters underwater, he saw a huge Water Demon leading a team of Aquatic Race Demon Soldiers patrolling by.

He bypassed the patrol team and dove more than twenty thousand kilometers deeper, encountering the second patrol team.

From then on, every more than ten thousand meters there would be a patrol team, and their size and level were becoming larger and higher.

"Hmm, this situation looks strange; is there going to be a war?"

With one breath he dove to the depths of the ocean, finally arriving in front of Canglan City, seeing that the city was exceptionally strict in its vigilance, with entry checks more rigorous, each one requiring detailed inspection, and demon clans holding treasure mirrors to check if someone has changed their appearance.

The checks were too detailed and slow, causing a queue to form at the city gate.

Su Yu lined up at the back of the queue, glanced around, and then activatively opened the regional channel, noticing a pinned message inside:

"Everyone pay attention, recently the Dragon Race and Sea Snake Race are at war, and both races are crazily recruiting outside, everyone avoid going out casually to prevent getting embroiled in the war."

"So that’s how it is."

Su Yu opened the contact list and sent a message to Ping Lingze:

"Brother, I’m back again, are you still in Canglan City?"

Ping Lingze quickly replied:

"I’m still here, the usual place."

"I’m coming right away."

After lining up for about half an hour, he paid the entry fee and smoothly entered Canglan City.

Being familiar with the place, he quickly arrived at the branch of the Divine Land Commerce Association and soon met with Ping Lingze.

"Mr. Su, you’ve achieved Core Formation already? Congratulations!"

"By the way, where’s your wife?"

"She’s in the sect in closed-door cultivation."

"Oh, is she preparing for Core Formation?"

Su Yu nodded:

"Yes."

Ping Lingze gestured with his hand, inviting Su Yu to the backyard, and asked:

"What brings you back this time, is there anything you need help with?"

Su Yu smiled and said:

"I’ve just achieved Core Formation and came out for experience, came to the East Sea to level up, and incidentally visiting a few big brothers."

Ping Lingze laughed and said:

"Then you’ve come at an unfortunate time, the situation isn’t great recently, the Dragon Race in the East Sea is fighting with the Sea Snake Race, most of the demon clans forces in the East Sea are being drawn into it, it’s extremely chaotic, I suspect leveling up around here might not be safe."

"It’s alright, I’ll be leveling up near Canglan City; they wouldn’t come to the city borders if they’re fighting, would they?"

"That’s not certain."

Ping Lingze said with a bitter smile:

"With the two races at war, even Canglan City might not be able to stay clear of it. Over the years, both races have sent emissaries over either to persuade or to threaten Canglan City. I estimate it won’t be long before Canglan City is also drawn into it."

"That serious?"

Su Yu furrowed his brow, suddenly changed his tone and asked:

"Speaking of which, Brother Ping, do you know the origins of the Sea Snake Race, what kind of foundation they have, to be able to contend against the Dragon Race?"

Ping Lingze said solemnly:

"Don’t underestimate the Sea Snake Race, they are also an ancient race, during the Primordial Era they once contested the oceanic supremacy against the Dragon Race. Their ancestors were top-tier Innate Sacred beings not inferior to the Ancestral Dragon. Although defeated by the Dragon Race during the Primordial Era leading to a major decline in power, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse, and they aren’t a race to be taken lightly."

"But they couldn’t possibly compare to the Dragon Race, right?"

Although Su Yu was unclear about the foundation of the Sea Snake Race, he knew about the foundation of the Dragon Race.

Regardless of their current loss of glory, they were once the protagonist race of the world, spread across the four seas, their lineage residing in countless other races, even within the lineage of the Sea Snake Race. By refining their lineage, the Sea Snake Race could transform into dragons.

With such a strong foundation, why would the Sea Snake Race challenge the Dragon Race?

Indeed, the Sea Snake Race was powerful back in the day, but that was then; they already declined after being defeated by the Dragon Race during the Primordial Era.

Over billions of years, even the Dragon Race has weakened as of today, the Aquatic Race would have weakened even further, being unable to catch up with the Dragon Race.

But Ping Lingze’s reply confirmed Su Yu’s suspicions:

"The Sea Snake Race certainly can’t compare to the Dragon Race, still far from it, but the remaining main force of the Sea Snake Race is concentrated overseas, far from the Four Great Dragon Palaces. Like the Cyan Dragon Palace, which is not as powerful as the Four Great Dragon Palaces, its strength is limited, unable to resist the main forces of the Sea Snake Race."

"Oh!"

Su Yu understood, realizing the Sea Snake Race had concentrated all their forces.

For example, if the overall power of all Dragon Race in the Earth Immortal Realm aggregated to 100, with each of the Four Great Sea Dragon Palaces accounting for 20, 20 dispersed outside, the Cyan Immortal Domain accounts for just 1 or even less, the Sea Snake Race only with 3, far inferior to the Dragon Race, unable to take on any of the Four Great Dragon Palaces, but if concentrated in the Cyan Immortal Domain, they could suppress the Dragon Race there.

However, the Dragon Race in the Cyan Immortal Domain went to the East Divine Land Dragon Palace to call for reinforcements, both sides engaged in a major conflict here.

"If that’s the case..."

Su Yu recalled he possessed the ability of Supreme Dragon Transformation, linked to the Ancestral Dragon by fate.

The Ancestral Dragon placed a piece on him, no matter how slight among countless pieces, it is still a fate, why not use this fate to gain some benefits from the Dragon Race?
