Chapter 263 -261: A Bloody Battle with Long Zhuojun
“Hum~~~”
The next second, Long Zhuojun unleashed a punch underwater!
It’s said that resistance underwater is terrifying, but Long Zhuojun’s punch was still incredibly terrifying. As his fist mastery erupted, a golden punch burst forth underwater like a mountain slamming towards Ning Daoran.
“Break!”
Ning Daoran was very skilled in fighting with arrays underwater.

Raising his sword point, a strand of Dual Yin Sword Intent wrapped in the breath of Jianjia within the array flew out instantly, shattering Long Zhuojun’s punch without hurting a single hair on Ning Daoran.
“Go!”
On the contrary, when Ning Daoran activated the array and brought out the twenty-four Golden Silk Swords, the suspended array underwater immediately became his domain, completely under his control.
“Sword Array?!”
Long Zhuojun’s face twisted with ferocity, he sneered, “Merely at the Golden Core Early Stage and using a sword array, do you still not understand, Fellow Daoist Ning, that you can only injure me, but you absolutely cannot kill me!”
Underwater, the Golden Silk Swords crisscrossed like a starry chessboard laid out.
Long Zhuojun rolled and dodged his body, but how could he possibly evade them all? In an instant, a Golden Silk Sword burst through the waves, heading straight for his chest!
“You’re truly unaware until you see the coffin!”
Long Zhuojun’s eyes grew frosty cold, as he drove his True Qi to activate the inner armor. In an instant, at least a Third-tier Middle-grade inner armor treasure burst forth with brilliance, shielding his entire body within.
“Clang~~~”
Amidst the sharp ringing sound, the Golden Silk Sword spiraled rapidly, its tip continually breaking through the inner armor. Almost within a breath, it had pierced the armor and then, “puchi,” penetrated Long Zhuojun’s left shoulder, bringing out a spray of blood.
“You…”
Long Zhuojun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. How could he imagine that there would be a magical treasure in the world that could drill through his treasured heavy armor, which cost him hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones!
However, his blind overconfidence had already left him without a way back. At this moment, trapped inside the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation underwater, Long Zhuojun had entered a desperate situation with no escape to heaven and no door to earth.
“I am the City Lord of Immortal White Dragon City!”
Long Zhuojun’s gaze was fierce, with murderous light still shining in his eyes, “Ning Daoran, do you really dare to kill me? Have you considered the cost of killing me? Not only you but even the Chaotic Sect behind you will be implicated!”
“City Lord, rest assured.”
Ning Daoran said indifferently, “Today, no one here will get away, and even if they do, they will not remember anything that happened here today.”
“In that case, I will take someone down with me even in death!”
Long Zhuojun desperately swung his fist.
Ning Daoran revealed a mocking smile.
A wild chicken in a bamboo cage, a small fish in a fish guard, what use is their struggle?
He slowly retreated, strands of golden sword light piercing through, giving Long Zhuojun no chance to get close. Even if he was about to approach, he would be pushed away by the gentle force of the Liangyi Sword Technique strands, unable to harm Ning Daoran in the slightest.
For a time, the dense sword light constantly shuttled underwater, and the injuries on Long Zhuojun’s body grew more numerous and dense.
That magic treasure level heavy armor had become riddled with holes and completely useless.
…
Above the water.
A group of Tribulation Cultivators from the Heaven Punishment Alliance was being chased by Second-class Paperfolk, their screams unceasing. Only some of the stronger Tribulation Cultivators at the Late-stage Foundation Establishment were somewhat at ease. However, when everyone looked towards the scene underwater, all of their hearts felt incredibly heavy.
At this moment, a large array emitting a tender golden glow was suspended in the water, partly obfuscating the view beneath.
From above the water, the crowd could only dimly see the tender golden bamboo forest swaying in the water, watch strands of golden light seep from beneath, as if two divine beings were fighting a life-and-death battle underneath.
The screeching of Flying Swords, the noise of Fist Mastery breaking the water, and the sound of sharp weapons piercing heavy armor echoed in their ears.
“Is the boss okay?”
A Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Tribulation Cultivator looked grim.
“I… I don’t know…”
Someone coughed blood in response, feeling that today’s script was off. Wasn’t it supposed to be a one-sided crush? How did it come to this? Even Long Zhuojun had been trapped underwater by that so-called Array Master Ning.
A Golden Core Early Stage Array Master, was he that strong? Able to hold his own against Late-stage Baodan Martial Artists?
Far away, an older cultivator in the Golden Core Late Stage, who was maneuvering a magical treasure and contending with Big Stupid Deer, also wore a grave expression. When his Divine Sense swept over the situation underwater, he found nothing!
However, judging from the fluctuations, Long Zhuojun’s aura had become chaotic and murky, and even the robust blood seeping into the water could be his.
This is not good; Long Zhuojun seemed to be no match for the young Array Master!
Be ready to flee at any moment!
On the deck.
Lin Man held a Top-grade spiritual tool in her hand, her beautiful eyes staring intently at the water, the tender golden bamboo forest swaying, leaving her heart hanging.
It was only now that Lin Man saw Ning Daoran’s true strength. She had guessed that Ning Daoran might have hidden a great deal of strength, but she didn’t expect him to have concealed so much!
He was actually able to single-handedly challenge Late-stage Baodan Martial Artists and fearlessly engage in close combat. What monstrous Golden Core Early Stage was this?
…
Underwater, the fierce battle continued.
Long Zhuojun, trapped in the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation, was like a cornered ferocious beast, constantly punching and driving his Blood Qi Power to batter the sword array, but to no avail.
Not to mention the robustness of the sword array, the most fatal was the ubiquity and indestructible power of each small golden sword. These Flying Swords were too strong to resist.
At this moment, Long Zhuojun had hundreds of wounds covering his body, blood Qi gushing out in torrents. How was this different from death by a thousand cuts?
“Fellow Daoist Ning.”
When Long Zhuojun’s life force had dwindled to less than half, he had already given up fighting and said with a wry smile, “I admit defeat. Do you intend to take my life, Fellow Daoist?”
With a slight lift of his hand, Ning Daoran caused twenty-four Golden Silk Swords to line up behind him, each sword point aimed directly at Long Zhuojun. He said indifferently, “Before the City Lord launched the sneak attack, had you resolved to take Ning’s life?”
“Yes.”
Long Zhuojun was, if nothing else, candid.
“So, taking the City Lord’s life is a matter of course for Ning, correct?”
“Correct…”
Long Zhuojun’s expression was one of utter dejection.
“I, Ning Daoran, bid farewell to the Lord of Immortal White Dragon City,” he said as he slowly clasped his fists and bowed his head. The moment he looked up, the twenty-four flying swords shot out simultaneously!
“Pfft pfft pfft~~~”
With extreme speed and repeated penetration, Long Zhuojun’s body instantly turned into a sieve, his appearance beyond recognition.
…
“Rise!”
Wielding a strand of mana, Ning Daoran collected various treasures from Long Zhuojun’s body and cut off his head, stowing it in his Storage Bag. He then burst forth from the water, transforming into a streak of indigo vapor, and with a flick of his hand, a thread of blood-colored silk emerged, cutting in half a Class A Paperfolk woman at the waist!
As the Spirit Cage Silk pierced through her slenderness, the woman was slain, and without a moment’s delay, it swept across with a “puff,” catching the Golden Core Early Stage gray-clothed old man, Han Chan, off guard. His head, along with the burst of golden light, fell into the water.
“Kill them all! Leave none alive!”
Ning Daoran flew forwards, descended from the heavens riding the Big Green Dragon, unleashing the 21st Layer of Eternal Green Technique power that enveloped the skies, targeting directly the head of the Golden Core Late Stage old man.
“You…”
Already struggling with the White Deer and several Class A Paperfolk, the sudden addition of Ning Daoran sent him into a panic, causing him to turn and flee desperately.
“Sssss~~~”
Amidst the wind, the Lingxiao Mist Dream Bracelet broke through the air, instantly transforming into a massive magical treasure that stretched across dozens of yards. It enveloped the old man’s figure perfectly, followed by the essence Qi of the treasure spurting out. In moments, a vast stretch of the sea, along with the old man’s body, were frozen within it.
It must be said, Ning Daoran’s sneak attack was extremely effective; even the Golden Core Late Stage cultivator fell victim to it!
“Chi!”
A ray of golden light pierced through, a particularly sharp Golden Silk Sword instantly penetrating the old man’s brow, killing him on the spot!
“Go!”
Ning Daoran pointed to the Robbery cultivators from Heaven Punishment Alliance at sea and commanded a group of Class A Paperfolk, “Spare none, annihilate them all!”
“Kill!”
These Paperfolk, each with the combat power of Golden Core Early Stage, launched into the air. Immediately, the color drained from the faces of those Robbery cultivators as they scattered everywhere, cursing themselves for not having an extra pair of legs.
“Old Lu, Little Bai, go help Little Blackie. Don’t let that catfish get away.”
Ning Daoran, wielding the Big Green Dragon, went about personally clearing the battlefield.
“Swoosh—”
He activated a Second-Order High-Grade Divine Speed Talisman, and his body transformed instantly into a flash of golden light, appearing miles away. The Big Green Dragon descended, crushing the head of a Late-stage Foundation Establishment Tribulation Cultivator to dust. Then swiftly teleporting, he caught up with a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Tribulation Cultivator, swept with his sword, and decapitated him cleanly, indifferent and efficient.
…
Aboard the ship, Lin Man was stunned.
Today, she witnessed another side of Ning Daoran and even began to wonder if he might kill a witness.
…
An hour later.
Distant thunder roared, signaling the approach of a storm.
Hundreds of broken corpses and bones littered the sea’s surface.
By now, sharks, drawn by the scent, were devouring the remains, partaking in a macabre feast.
As for the large ship,
Although several sword cultivators from Fuyun Sect were injured, their wounds were not fatal. They fished Transcendent Wuya and Li Fengling out of the water, who, by some miracle, had not died!
However, Transcendent Wuya was gravely injured, with his chest nearly punctured through. Only by forcibly sealing it with Golden Core power did he manage to cling to life, though his cultivation had plummeted to Golden Core Early Stage, his face etched with deep sorrow.
Li Fengling’s face showed shame.
Lying in the water, despite an injured temple, he was lucid enough to be aware of everything that transpired and knew that it was Ning Daoran who stemmed the tide of disaster, dealing with Long Zhuojun’s ambush.
To speak more bluntly, Ning didn’t just counter the ambush; he annihilated the entire upper echelon of Immortal White Dragon City!
Long Zhuojun was the City Lord; that Golden Core Late Stage elder was undoubtedly one of his strong arms. As for Han Chan, he was one of Long Zhuojun’s close confidants.
The Catfish Demon, bitten to death by Little Blackie, trampled by Big Stupid Deer, and phased by Little Bai with the Ten-thousand-year-old Stake, was the Golden Core Late Stage elder’s Spiritual Beast.
Additionally, the hundreds of Foundation Establishment Tribulation Cultivators from the Heaven Punishment Alliance were also one of Long Zhuojun’s trump cards, his pawns kept outside and only brought forward when needed.
Now all of that was extinguished, and Immortal White Dragon City would surely face tremendous upheaval.
Li Fengling struggled to rise, approached with a shaky gait, and clasped his fists, saying, “Senior Ning… I spoke inappropriately before, I hope the Senior can forgive my ignorant younger self…”
