Luring the Enemy In
The Nine Neonate slowly drew closer. However, about 5000 feet away from Yi Yun, it stopped. It quietly observed Yi Yun and the Yuan Qi that was being spewed out the Great Empress mystic realm.
With the Nine Neonate’s intelligence, it could already tell that the sudden appearance of the Great Empress mystic realm was dubious, but… it could not withstand the temptation of the pure Yuan Qi. After all, for it to grow, it required substantial amounts of heavenly materials.
If not, once its Heavenly Tribulation came, it would end up in ashes.
And now, its Heavenly Tribulation was already drawing near.
In the dark depths of the sea, it glared at Yi Yun. There were a total of 19 eyes on its nine heads. The eyes were either in an eerie green or blood red color. Its eyes were all extremely cold.
From its perception, this human was not extremely powerful, but this human had a special body. The smell emitted from the human’s body was very attractive.
Slowly, the Nine Neonate was about a thousand feet away from Yi Yun. From this distance, even without the energy vision, Yi Yun could see the Nine Neonate’s shape with his naked eye from the light emitted by the Great Empress mystic realm’s entrance.
This was a young Nine Neonate. There was a blood red streak across its body. This marking emitted a faint glow, and Yi Yun knew that this was a vitality pattern that was related to the Nine Neonate’s evolution.
Once this pattern fully matured, it would instigate a Heavenly Tribulation.
After being tempered by the Heavenly Tribulation, this pattern would become a Dao pattern that gathered Heaven Earth Great Dao within it. With such a Dao pattern, it would cause the Nine Neonate’s strength to make a quantum leap.
A Nine Neonate could have at most have nine Heaven Earth Dao patterns in its life.
And the Nine Neonate before Yi Yun had not experienced a single Heavenly Tribulation.
A Nine Neonate that had not experienced a Heavenly Tribulation could not control the laws of nature, so its threat was much smaller. However, just the powerful physique of the Nine Neonate was already frightening.
The three undersea overlords from before had retreated the moment this Nine Neonate appeared.
Yi Yun quickly analyzed the situation. And at this moment, the Nine Neonate suddenly attacked.
A sharp scream, that resembled that of a baby’s, went straight into his ear. The high pressure seawater around Yi Yun began to resonate strongly from the scream, as if it was boiling.
Intense pressure enveloped him from all sides as the sea water condensed a sharp sword that stabbed at Yi Yun.
Yi Yun focused his gaze. In the sea, there was no room for him to dodge.
With his Yuan Qi surging, he formed a Yuan Qi protective layer around his body.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Thunder-like thuds could be heard!
The seawater tumbled around as it swirled around Yi Yun in a crazy fashion, as if it had become a giant whirlpool.
Yi Yun found it hard to stand in the middle of the whirlpool. His body was sparkling with golden radiant sun beams. Deep in the dark sea, his presence was extremely eye-catching.
Sou!
At this moment, a shadow pierced through the chaotic seawater rapidly.
A cold lone eye appeared from the seawater as it glared at Yi Yun intently.
One of the Nine Neonate’s head had forcefully hit out at Yi Yun. Its serpent mouth opened up as a black tongue whipped at Yi Yun.
Despite a fishy smell being immediately blocked by his Yuan Qi, it still managed to assault his olfactory senses. This fishy smell was highly toxic. It would cause the people who smelled it to have a splitting headache and block their meridians, resulting in them losing the ability to resist.
Yi Yun gathered Yuan Qi and burned his pure Yang Yuan Qi. Pure Yang was best at subduing poisonous gases, so instantly, all the toxic gas was burned into cyan smoke by pure Yang Yuan Qi!
Just after Yi Yun finished dissipated the toxic gas in his body, the Nine Neonate’s serpent tongue pierced into the whirlpool like a bolt of lightning, and penetrated Yi Yun’s protective Yuan Qi!
Yi Yun’s pupils constricted. So fast!
The water droplets that got stirred up from the tongue’s penetration were like projectiles that could kill!
Dang!
Feeling death draw close, Yi Yun used the broken sword to parry the serpent’s tongue. Pure Yang Yuan Qi surged out from his body as he evaporated the water droplets.
The serpent’s tongue was invulnerable, but Yi Yun still managed to parry it with the tiny broken sword, as a clear, rasp sound of the sword’s clashed echoed out.
Yi Yun’s Yuan Qi was immediately extracted out like a tidal flood. The hand that held the sword went numb.
A huge, circular ripple moved away, with him being the center of it and far into the distance.
The moment the fish far away met the ripple, they immediately turned in massive clouds of blood.
