Chapter 384: Giant Waves Soaring Into The Sky, The Invasion Of The Oceanic Species

Translator: CatatoPatch Editor: Vermillion

In the western region of the Illusory Spirit Swamp, below a steep cliff, there was a vast sea.

As a salty sea breeze blew over, the sea waves surged and smacked the reefs below the steep cliff with loud thunders. Such deafening sounds were enough to blow anyoneʼs mind.

Atop the cliff was a huge tower made of stone. This tower was built by the Grand Serpentine City to observe the boundless sea and keep a lookout for intruders.

There was a vast port below the cliff, from where countless serpent-men experts would go into the sea in order to capture food ingredients and obtain materials.

A small village around the port which inhabited by fishermen, who were preparing to go out to sea. That village was just a temporary stopover for them, and their houses were, in fact, all in the Grand Serpentine City.

Countless wooden boats were anchored at the port, and their wooden sails emitted clanking sounds as they swayed in the wind.

From time to time, some serpent-men guards from the Grand Serpentine City would pass through the ports with weapons in hand. These guards were responsible for the safety of the port.

The ocean was filled with countless unknown creatures, and sometimes, some spirit beasts with names unbeknownst to them would crawl out of the sea and damage the village and port. These guards were set up to take care of these sea spirit beasts.

As the warm rays of the sun shone down upon the sea, its surface gleamed, making the ocean seem as though it was filled with countless pieces of gold. As the waves rolled by, these pieces seemed to glister even more.

Suddenly, a serpent-man who was about to set out to sea let out a sharp cry.

All the serpent-men in that wooden boat lay down in fright upon noticing a pitch-black line in the horizon.

As the line grew bigger and more vivid, loud rumbles began to reverberate. The approaching blackness was revealed to be innumerable black clouds which proceeded to completely cover the sky.

Such an apocalyptic sight frightened all the serpent-men in the wooden boats. They cried out in fright, quickly jumped out of the boats and hurried to the shore.

A monstrous wave, which was several hundred feet tall, was revealed to be approaching the port. Even serpent-men like them, who regularly went out to sea, had never seen a wave that huge before.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Countless red glows flickered within the wave like light beams. The glows were countless eyes brimming with cruelty. The monstrous wave was unexpectedly ferrying over countless powerful spirit beasts within it.

The wave rushed toward the Illusory Spirit Swamp, bringing fearsome spirit beasts with it.

....

An extremely terrifying energy condensed in the air and turned into the phantom image of a dogʼs paw.

The serpent-man Supreme-Being had an unsightly expression on his face. Close to insanity, he roared and swished his scarlet tail in an attempt to escape from the terrifying aura.

His lance, which had been bent out of shape by the terrifying pressure, seemed like it was about to shatter.

”How is this possible? Why did such a terrifying pressure appear here? Is that really a dogʼs paw?”

A trace of astonishment flashed across the serpent-man Supreme-Beingʼs eyes, and he roared again as he tried to break free from the pressureʼs fetters.

However, Blacky grinned coldly, and with a snort of derision, swiped its paw downwards.

Bang!

The ground below the serpent-men tribe wasnʼt firm and stable, and it directly cracked open from the smash, which sent a wave of mud up into the air.

The serpent-man Supreme-Being had been pressed down into the ground, and he was forced to lay there, completely submerged in mud.

Ah!!

That serpent-man Supreme-Being roared again.

However, Blackyʼs exquisite and small paw exerted some strength, and cracking sounds reverberated from the compression in the ground. The serpent-man Supreme-Beingʼs roars died out, and he spouted out a mouthful of blood, lying there weakly.

Rumble!

The ground trembled from the pressure, and the huge compression on the ground was revealed to be a giant paw mark. The tremor caused crushed rocks to fly into the air, accompanied by the stinking mud which smeared the surroundings.

Blacky rolled its eyes in boredom and waved its paw, and the ground seemed to flip over.
