172: Showdown with the Old Loach

The master of Xuantian Hall, an old-timer who had shaken the Endless Sea Region for hundreds to thousands of years—was dead!

Ji Mo had collected the Sacred Artifact, the sea-gazing mirror. This Sacred Artifact was quite extraordinary; it would be a pity to destroy it, and it would be quite useful as a gift for his woman to protect her life.

At this moment, another of the Three Saints was gone. It wasn't that the Sea Dragon Clan Leader wouldn't help; he could see that the old thing was already finished.

The Human Race and the Demon Race were inherently opposed; saving him would bring no benefit to himself, so why bother intervening?

This beautiful woman, Vice Hall Master Meng of Xuantian Hall, hadn't failed to act, but rather her methods were useless against Ji Mo.

A full eight Saints—including two at the Second Heaven of the Saint Rank and six at the First Heaven of the Saint Rank—had joined forces and broken through boundaries to hunt down Ji Mo, yet they had been reduced to such a miserable state by Ji Mo alone.

The Sea Dragon Clan Leader sat firmly on the fishing platform, remaining calm even upon seeing Ji Mo's display. Although his expression showed he took the matter seriously, he did not feel much fear.

Ji Mo watched the two of them indifferently with a cold expression. Vice Hall Master Meng, with her voluptuous figure and stunningly beautiful face, was now filled with fear.

She looked so pitiful, completely devoid of the high-and-mighty Aura of a Saint, appearing instead like a fragile woman.

This woman was somewhat extraordinary; despite her fear, she surprisingly did not utter any words of surrender.

Ji Mo stepped forward, closing in on her, and unleashed a punch. The Saint energy barrier protecting her body was instantly shattered by this single blow.

Facing this woman, who was even three parts more beautiful than Nangong Xue'er, Ji Mo showed no mercy, remaining cold and unperturbed.

He kicked out again, sending a hidden force into her body. Her Saint body was instantly obliterated by the power of over forty thousand Dragons, tearing her apart. Ji Mo stepped on her head, and she died completely.

At this moment, only the Sea Dragon Clan Leader remained of the eight Saints; all the others had died, their Dao dissipated.

"Too strong, Ji Mo is truly too strong!"

"We are witnessing history, witnessing the rise of a future Imperial Rank; it is truly our honor."

"Indeed! This youth will definitely reach the Imperial Rank in the future; there is no doubt about that."

"Supreme and unrivaled; this is the path of a rising Imperial Rank!"

"Shouldn't you be focusing your attention on the Three Saints Sect, Xuantian Hall, and the Brotherhood Alliance!"

"Two top-tier powers that have shaken the sea region for hundreds of years—have they really been destroyed just like that today?"

"It's truly unimaginable that two top-tier powers were wiped out by someone on the same day."

"Indeed! The sea region will certainly not be peaceful for a while. Those two top-tier powers occupied two or three-tenths of the resources in the Endless Sea Region! And now, they're just gone."

"This is inevitable. What do you think these Saints came here for? With such a large cake, how could no one go to carve it up?"

"This has nothing to do with us; it's just changing masters. Whoever can invite Ji Mo to be an honored guest of their faction will surely receive boundless wealth!"

"That's the truth. As long as Ji Mo speaks, who would dare touch those resources?"

"I like that sentence Ji Mo said: 'When others are brutal, I must be hundreds or thousands of times more brutal than them.' He did it; it's truly too brutal, too overbearing."

"He is worthy of being my idol. Killing a Saint Rank is like slaughtering dogs. Domineering, too domineering! Idol, I want to learn from you."

This was a young man who had just entered the sea region. At this moment, his expression was excited and exceptionally agitated; he couldn't control himself and shouted loudly at Ji Mo.

As soon as these words were spoken, the dozen or so Saints watching the battle involuntarily turned their gazes toward the young man, their expressions somewhat strange.

'Killing a Saint like slaughtering a dog! Is he comparing us to dogs?' Young man, you've gotten carried away! You are not Ji Mo. Where is your confidence to say such things? Young lad, just wait for what's coming.

The gaze of a dozen Saints was an extraordinary amount of pressure, like a cup of ice water in the middle of winter, instantly cooling him down and causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

Ji Mo naturally heard what his little fanboy said to him and turned to look at the youth. This kid was really fierce; he dared to say anything.

If he didn't help him out, he would definitely be finished. Ji Mo nodded at the young man and extended his right hand to give him a thumbs-up.

"Holy crap! My idol nodded at me and even gave me a thumbs-up! Idol, my name is Bai Jianyun, and I am your number one fanboy."

When the young man saw Ji Mo signaling to him, he was so excited he went mad, forgetting that he was being watched by a bunch of Saints.

The Saints, seeing that Ji Mo had noticed the young man, also withdrew their gazes.

Alright! Then it's fine. Young man, you are really lucky.

Ji Mo is currently at the height of his fame; it's better to avoid his edge. Offending such a person for such an insignificant little character is not worth it.

Ji Mo turned his gaze back to the Sea Dragon Clan Leader and spoke indifferently:

"Old Loach, you are the only one left. I know you haven't used your full strength yet; now, show me your methods!"

"Haha! Human brat, you are indeed very strong, a Prodigy that hasn't appeared in a thousand years. But you shouldn't have provoked my Sea Dragon Clan. Today, I will avenge my clansmen."

"True Dragon Transformation!"

A heaven-shaking Dragon roar resounded. The Sea Dragon Clan Leader finally unleashed his true form. Compared to his transformed Human Race body, his original form was far more powerful.

A gigantic Sea Dragon nearly thirty thousand meters long appeared on the scene. Its massive Dragon head was several thousand meters long, and its two front Dragon claws, when spread out, were also several thousand meters in size.

Not only did it have two front claws, but two more Dragon claws were faintly growing from the back. This was a sign of fully transforming into a Dragon. One had to admit that this Old Loach's Bloodline was truly extraordinary.

Everyone was shocked by the Old Loach's size and Aura. Ji Mo had to sigh; sometimes, size really had an advantage.

In the future, he must find a way to get a skill that allows him to grow larger. To deal with these size-monsters, he needed to increase his own size to leverage his advantages, otherwise, he couldn't fully unleash his power.

"True Dragon Claw!"

At this moment, the might of the Sea Dragon Clan was truly displayed in the Endless Sea Region. The massive size alone was enough to make countless Saints despair.

Those scales shone brilliantly, clearly possessing extraordinary defense, and coupled with the massive size, even a fool knew that its power was absolutely extraordinary.

At this moment, the Old Loach's huge Dragon eyes stared at Ji Mo, who looked like an ant, and a Dragon roar resounded through heaven and earth.

"Human, today is your death date. No one can save you. Aren't you strong in Physical Body? Today, I will let you witness what truly terrifying physical power is."

Ji Mo was naturally unafraid; he had absolute confidence in his own power.

A massive Dragon claw that blotted out the sky reached out to grab Ji Mo. Ethereal water vapor emanated from the claw, runes flashed, and majestic Dragon Qi gathered on this giant claw.

"Die!"

The Old Loach's word "Die" resounded through heaven and earth, and the thousands of meters of space where the Dragon claw was located directly shattered and collapsed.

"I'd like to see who dies!"

Ji Mo stood proudly, the power of nearly forty-five thousand Dragons erupted, and he threw a punch with a "bang."

"Boom!"

This terrifying blow from Ji Mo directly shattered the manifested True Dragon giant claw. The surrounding space turned into a patch of Chaos, with spatial turbulence flying everywhere.

This blow could be considered evenly matched, but in reality, Ji Mo had lost, because this was not the Old Loach's original form; the Dragon Clan's most powerful aspect was their original form.

"Come again!"

Ji Mo decided to take the initiative. He still had his hidden force; if he could land a solid hit, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage.

The Old Loach's huge eyes, like small ponds, stared at Ji Mo, his gaze revealing a hint of mockery.

"Brat, you are truly brave. Today, I will let you witness what a True Dragon body is."

After speaking, he directly thrust out his front claw, the thousands-of-meters-long Dragon claw directly enveloping Ji Mo.

"Clang!"

Ji Mo's body, like a cannonball, collided directly with the thousands-of-meters-large Dragon claw, surprisingly emitting a sound of clashing metal.

The Dragon claw covered in Dragon scales withstood Ji Mo's blow without injury. It wasn't without gains, though; the massive Dragon claw was sent flying by him.

However, he himself was like a shuttlecock being struck, sent flying over ten thousand meters, his entire body cracking with tiny fissures.

From this blow, he could feel that the power of the Dragon claw itself shouldn't be much greater than his own, but he was at a huge disadvantage in terms of defensive power.

Ji Mo's Qi and blood boiled throughout his body, his black hair fluttered, his Physical Body tensed, and his injuries healed instantly as he charged up again.

"Hegemon Fist—Hidden Force!"
