Urban Invincible Overlord-Chapter 1246 - 1243: Kunpeng

Earth, deep within the East Sea, Penglai Immortal Mountain.

"Crash!"

With a thunderous sound, a hundred-zhang long Deep Sea Python fell from the sky, plummeting into the sea.

This was within the sea area inside the Barrier Array sealing the Penglai Immortal Mountain.

High above, Yang Fei, Tong Yunshu, Qin Yanyang, Sun Xingyu, Helian Zhan, Wang Chunfeng, Wang Lei, Du Hui, Li Yue, Yun Zong, Linglong, Gan Qian, and Lu Chen all breathed a sigh of relief.

This was their seventh attempt at assaulting this Deep Sea Python with two small antennae on its head.

Four years ago, after coming here, Sun Xingyu led everyone through the barrier into the cave where Li Xuanyu and Umekawa Taro were trapped.

Once gathered, they began to venture out and battle the Exotic Beast Demonic Beast sealed within Penglai Immortal Mountain.

Initially, they stayed together, and most of the Exotic Beast Demonic Beasts they encountered were formidable but couldn’t withstand their combined assault of more than a dozen people.

Some Exotic Beasts without spiritual wisdom were relatively weak, unable to match even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in one-on-one combat. Still, these beasts were clever, and after witnessing their kind being slain, they became fearful of the intruding Cultivators and hid away.

Nevertheless, the number of beasts sealed within the mountain was overwhelming, many terrifyingly powerful, to the point of despair.

In the initial months, Yang Fei and the others frequently got injured.

If not for Yang Fei’s Soul Binding Rope and its powerful deterrence against the Great Demons, and the bloodline suppression from the Heaven-devouring Divine Beast that instilled fear in various demon beasts, any one of these Great Demons could have easily wiped out their group.

But even with the Soul Binding Rope and Tong Yunshu’s impressive battle prowess with the Rune Tao, and Helian Zhan, Wang Chunyang, and Wang Lei exhibiting exceptional combat strength, they still struggled to suppress and slay the Great Demon Level demon beasts.

Indeed, at the start, they were truly overwhelmed by the Exotic Beast Demonic Beasts sealed here.

Even the lowest level beasts without spiritual wisdom couldn’t be defeated one-on-one by any of them, but the sheer number often forced them to retreat and flee.

And when facing the Great Demons, even combined, they gained little advantage and suffered injuries frequently.

If not for the cave with the Spiritual Spring providing temporary refuge and faster recovery from injuries after using it, they wouldn’t have lasted four years.

In these four years, all the Cultivators who entered the seal of Penglai Immortal Mountain grew stronger through continuous battle, honing their Mana to its fullest and refining their combat spells to perfection.

And everyone mostly acted as a group, staying united, so even though they got injured over the years, no one perished.

Gradually, Exotic Beasts near the cave realized the prowess of these Human Clan cultivators and avoided provoking them, fleeing whenever they emerged to hunt.

Of course, those Great Demons, as per Lingxiao Sect’s evaluation, stronger than a Core Formation Master, were an exception.

Over the past four years, every encounter with a Great Demon Level demon beast resulted in injuries, with no clean escapes.

This Deep Sea Python with feelers on its head was one of the dominant creatures in the sea territory.

The first encounter was when Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang lured a land demon beast to the shallow sea, and while battling it fiercely, the Deep Sea Python appeared out of nowhere, almost swallowing Yang Fei in one bite.

Though Yang Fei narrowly escaped with Instant Teleportation, its massive body struck Qin Yanyang, sending him flying, and even with dual cultivation sessions for healing, it took over three months to recover.

From then on, Yang Fei held a grudge against the Deep Sea Python.

Over four years, through continuous battles with demon beasts, the team’s overall strength increased greatly, and cooperation became more seamless. Half a year ago, they even subdued an Ancient Divine Ape of Great Demon Level on land.

Yang Fei saw hope in defeating such Great Demons.

So recently, Yang Fei led multiple provocations at this Deep Sea Python in the sea, leading to six battles where Zhu Tianshou, Qin Huai’an, Gong Haichao, and Qin Sizhong were seriously injured and still recovering.

But after many months of entanglement and battle, the Deep Sea Python was severely injured, its Divine Sense tormented by Yang Fei’s Soul Binding Rope, leaving it overwhelmed.

Finally, during the seventh onslaught by the group, Yang Fei completely extracted its Divine Sense and soul with the Soul Binding Rope, sending it crashing into the sea.

Yang Fei checked the Deep Sea Python’s captured Divine Sense and soul within the Soul Binding Rope, then scanned the surroundings with his own Divine Sense, concerned: "Is everyone alright?"

"We’re fine."

"Hahaha, we finally subdued this Deep Sea Python."

"Once you refine this Deep Sea Python into a Spiritual Puppet, many demon beasts in the sea can be used by us."

"Indeed, with land and sea Great Demons each suppressed, along with the over thirty demon beasts subdued over these years, it’s enough to form a powerful Demon Beast Puppet army."

Everyone spoke excitedly.

At this moment, another terrifying roar resonated from the deep sea, a powerful presence of a Great Demon engulfing them.

Everyone’s expression changed, and Yang Fei immediately said, "Hurry, let’s go."

Having just fought a fierce battle, everyone was rather exhausted, unable to contend with a peak-state Great Demon.

"Universe Infinite Talisman, collect!"

Lu Chen cast a Third Rank Talisman, and the massive body of the mindless Deep Sea Python rapidly shrank, finally being stored into a High rank Spirit Pet Bag by Lu Chen.

Everyone scattered and swiftly retreated toward the cave.

Splash!

Shortly after leaving this sea area, a massive whale-like Great Demon soared from the sea into the sky.

It spread its enormous wings, extending hundreds of meters, with wings resembling two huge mountains, casting a dark shadow over a vast area of the sea below.

"Damn, is this the legendary Kunpeng?" Wang Lei exclaimed.

Everyone’s mind instantly filled with the legend of Kunpeng, nodding in agreement. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Yun Zong also exclaimed, "Indeed, it’s the Ancient Great Peng recorded in the Mountain and Sea Strange Things."

"How is this possible? Didn’t the Ancient Kunpeng long disappear? How can there still be a Kunpeng in the Earth World?" Linglong looked incredulous.

Gan Qian added, "This demon beast looks like a Kunpeng, but compared to the Ancient Kunpeng, it’s probably smaller, and although its aura is terrifying, it’s still far from the strength of an Ancient Kunpeng. Otherwise, not to mention us, even Penglai Immortal Mountain wouldn’t withstand its impact, and how could this Barrier Array contain it?"

Yun Zong retorted, "Does it have to be an adult Ancient Kunpeng? Have you forgotten about Yang Fei’s Heaven-devouring Divine Beast?"

Everyone fell silent.

Indeed.

If a Heaven-devouring Divine Beast can appear in the Earth World, then the appearance of an Ancient Kunpeng here isn’t surprising.
