My disciples are all villains.

Chapter 1099: Turbulent Undercurrent

Mingshi Yin, who was sleeping soundly in a dense forest, was jolted awake by a sudden clap of thunder. He hastily rose to his feet and instinctively raised his hand.

The bluewood disappeared immediately.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Qiong Qi ran over, wagging its tail.

Mingshi Yin looked to the left and the right vigilantly before he scratched his head. "I must be dreaming again. What's wrong with me? I just had to dream about master…"

Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!

Qiong Qi turned around and barked a few times.

Mingshi Yin said irritably, "Stop barking. I have a headache."

Following that, he looked up at the gray sky. The environment was gloomy and suffocating.

"It's been half a year since I've come to Great Shang."

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Qiong Qi barked a few more times.

Mingshi Yin looked out of the dense forest suspiciously. Amidst the fog in the distance, he saw many pairs of glowing eyes.

"A pack of wolves?" Mingshi Yin patted Qiong Qi's head. "Let's go... I think I know where the blue crystal is."

Qiong Qi stopped barking.

Mingshi Yin leaped onto Qiong Qi's back and flew up into the air toward a human city.

Lu Zhou cut off the power of sight.

With Mingshi Yin's ability, there was no reason he could not find the blue crystals after half a year. Based on the black lotus domain's information, the purple lotus domain's overall cultivation strength was the same as the red lotus domain. What could have gone wrong?

At this moment, the heatwave under Lu Zhou seemed to have grown hotter than before, making him feel uncomfortable.

"Supreme mystic power."

Lu Zhou's Birth Palace had caught fire again. He used what little of the supreme mystic power he had left to help his Birth Palace withstand the high temperature. The supreme mystic power raised his Birth Palace's resistance by a lot.

After half a year in this place, not to mention humans, even ordinary metal would have long turned to molten iron.

Lu Zhou frowned and observed the changes in his Birth Palace. The progress was 99% complete; the final 1% was unusually difficult to complete.

He felt as though his Dantian's sea of Qi was being pricked by thousands of flaming needles.

He brought his Purple Glazed Ceramic out but hesitated when he thought that using it might affect his Birth Trial. After all, the Purple Glazed Ceramic could release an incredibly cold energy; who knew if it would destroy the harsh environment here? In the end, he put away the Purple Glazed Ceramic that was fully recovered.

Seeing that he did not have any supreme mystic power left, he decided to enter his meditative state to recover the supreme mystic power.

Perhaps due to the high temperature, the vitality energy here was very thin. Therefore, the time it took for him to recover the supreme mystic power was very long as well.

In any case, he was not in a rush. It would take a long time before the changes in Birth Palace were completed. Even if he could swiftly recover his supreme mystic power, he still would not be able to leave yet. It would be better for him to calm down and slowly recover the supreme mystic power.

The Endless Ocean.

Lu Li was speechless when he saw Zhu Honggong lying on Dangkang's back, snoring and drooling. Zhu Honggong was really not cut out to be the local tyrant; his image was not intimidating at all. If it were not for his help, it would be difficult to make more than 100,000 disciples from the Flood Sect submit if they were to rely on Zhu Honggong's charisma alone.

Whoosh!

A sea beast suddenly leaped out of the sea in front of them.

"What's going on?" Lu Li was perplexed. Normally, under such weather, the sea beasts would not usually leave the sea. Why did a sea beast suddenly leap out of the sea? He quickly woke Zhu Honggong up.

Zhu Honggong rubbed his eyes and said groggily, "Are we home?"

"We're still a long way from home. Be careful. There's something up ahead."

They had been flying for a long time, but they were still above the Endless Ocean.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Honggong felt empty in his heart. He said, dissatisfied, "I should've just stayed in the yellow lotus domain. To be honest, His Majesty treats us well. I could've married a few wives there…"

Lu Li said, "However, have you really thought it through? Compared to you, their lives are just a flash in the pan. When they grow old, you'll still look the same. When your children are old, you'll still look the same. Think about it. Imagine your children lying on the bed sick with white hair and wrinkles as they complain to you…"

"Alright, alright, I f*cking understand your point!" Zhu Honggong could not help but shudder when he thought about it.

Splash!

A dark sea beast leaped out of the sea.

Lu Li frowned and observed the changes in the water. Under the sunlight, he saw a shadow as huge as a mountain under the surface of the sea. He hastily said, shocked, "Hurry up! Ask Dang Kang to fly higher up!"

"Okay." Zhu Honggong realized the severity of the situation and hurriedly urged Dang Kang to fly up into the fog.

Their visibility was greatly affected when they entered the fog. They could hardly see what was going on below.

The experienced Lu Li said, "Don't disperse the fog. Just move slowly. It'll be dangerous if we're discovered."

"Old Lu, what's going on?"

Lu Li said, "Sea beast king."

"Another sea beast king? Should I go down and kill it to take its life heart?" Zhu Honggong asked.

"No," Lu Li said, "You don't know much about sea beasts. Back then, I accepted a mission from the Black Tower Council and went to the Endless Ocean to kill the sea beast king. Do you know why we wanted to kill the sea beast king?"

"I don't want to know why; your answer will definitely suffocate me to death," Zhu Honggong said.

Lu Li ignored him and continued, "That's because sea beast kings have the ability to control or lead other beasts. Every once in a while, a sea beast king would lead a large group of powerful sea beasts to attack human cities. To protect the domain that's kept in captivity, the Black Tower Council needed to kill it…"

"Then why didn't they send stronger cultivators?" Zhu Honggong asked in confusion.

"Those with eight charts are judges. Above that are the elders. They have a high status and won't easily risk their lives. If I'm dead, they'll send more people out to make sure the sea beast king doesn't come to land…" Lu Li replied.

"Then why didn't they send someone to deal with sea beast king this time?" Zhu Honggong asked as he listened to the sound of waves from below.

"I don't know." Lu Li shook his head. "We've been away for too long. Maybe something has happened to the Black Tower Council. The Black Tower has its own way of doing things. Every six months, someone will be sent to patrol the sea. Naturally, there's no guarantee the sea beast kings will appear. However, if the person on patrol perishes and fails to kill the sea beast king, leading the sea beast kings to come ashore, the Black Tower Council will send the judges out at that time…"

"The Black Tower Council is despicable," Zhu Honggong said.

"Sometimes we don't have a choice..."

"What should we do now? If the Black Tower Council doesn't send anyone, won't the sea beasts act recklessly?" Zhu Honggong asked anxiously.

"There are many possibilities. Perhaps, this isn't the part of the Endless Ocean near the black lotus domain and the red lotus domain…," Lu Li said.

"It's over, it's over, it's over... We're lost," Zhu Honggong said.

"Impossible." Lu Li took out a glowing jade token from his pocket.

Zhu Hong looked at the jade token and exclaimed in surprise, "Old Lu, you kept such a treasure to yourself!"

"This isn't a treasure. It's used to show us the way. At that time when we first arrived in the yellow lotus domain, it had already lit up… However, our cultivation bases were too low to cross the Endless Ocean again at that time..."

A low but thunderous groan rang from below, piercing through the fog. It was so loud that the duo's eardrums hurt, and their heads began to buzz.

Lu Li frowned and said grimly, "It's a high-level sea beast king."

"..."

"If you go down now, its stomach will be your new home," Lu Li, who could read Zhu Honggong's mind now, said, putting an end to Zhu Honggong's desire to go down. He could let Zhu Honggong let his victory over Wang Chao get to his head.

"High-level sea beast kings are so powerful?"

"Perhaps only judges can deal with it… I don't know where this one is going. I'm afraid disaster will soon befall humans…" Lu Li sighed.

Great Yuan's royal palace in the black lotus domain.

The Black Emperor, Mu Ertie, paced back and forth with his hands on his back.

At this moment, a figure rushed over and kneeled on the ground before saying, "Your Majesty, reports from the frontline say that the ferocious beasts from the Endless Ocean are heading toward the red lotus domain."

Mu Ertie's eyes lit up as he turned around. "Very good! I've been waiting for this day!"

"Your Majesty, King Chen of Wu has gone to the Dark and Light Alliance. I believe they'll be willing to cooperate with us."

"Okay," Mu Ertie said to Eunuch Zhang, his confidant, who was standing nearby, "Murtie said to eunuch Zhang, his confidant nearby, "Inform the Dark Soul Sect that I want to bring An Se back to the palace."
