CHAPTER 81: CHAPTER 81: GREAT SUCCESS WATER TECHNIQUE

Over the past seven years, Wen Zijian has diligently trained day and night, finally breaking through to the Perfection of the Qi Cultivation Stage.

Upon reflection, his strength has indeed grown significantly.

He believes he is not inferior to Shen Xuan seven years ago.

But unexpectedly.

Shen Xuan’s power has advanced to an astonishing level.

He can even directly confront a Tier Two Sea Demon head-on!

This made his moment of stepping forward just now seem like a joke!

Earlier, he had even promoted Shen Xuan in front of Tang Renhao.

Now, it appears that this former Demon Hunting Team companion remains deeply hidden and cautious.

At that moment, a splash exploded again.

A figure suddenly leaped out of the seawater!

The person glanced at the fighting Silver Hook Sea Snake and arrived next to Wen Zijian.

"How’s the situation?"

This person was none other than Tang Renhao.

Wen Zijian lowered his voice and transmitted a few words to Tang Renhao.

Tang Renhao also looked at Shen Xuan with curiosity.

"Shen Talisman Master, Wen Daoist Friend and I are life and death brothers!"

Shen Xuan quickly replied, "Shen and Wen Daoist Friend were once life and death companions in the Hunting Team."

"Very good."

Receiving the expected answer, Tang Renhao appeared quite pleased.

"The three of us have a bond that is different from others. Wen Daoist Friend said you want the Silver Hook Sea Serpent Essence Blood to create Spirit Talismans. Leave that matter to me, Tang!"

He was quite confident.

Shen Xuan asked in surprise, "But what about Qing Yuan Daoist and Elder Zhu..."

"With such a large Silver Hook Sea Snake, how can those two swallow it all? Naturally, everyone must rely on their own abilities!"

"Demon beasts are born of nature; everyone deserves a share!"

Only then did Shen Xuan realize.

Daoist Qing Yuan and Elder Zhu hadn’t exerted their full strength. Part of it was due to the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s robust vitality, and they were also guarding against others snatching the spoils.

"I’ll join the fight, and you and Wen Daoist Friend assist me in the formation!"

"Alright!"

Tang Renhao shouted, "Daoist Friends! Allow Tang to lend you a hand!"

He summoned a Profound Water Ruyi Umbrella, transforming it into a sharp spear to pierce a bloody cavity on the Silver Hook Sea Snake.

The three formed a triangular formation, completely encircling the Silver Hook Sea Snake.

During this, the Silver Hook Sea Snake tried several times to dive deep into the sea, but was forced to the surface by Daoist Qing Yuan’s Water Repelling Technique draining the water.

Time passed little by little.

The three Foundation Establishment Cultivators tangled in mutual understanding.

The wounds on the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s demon body increased, its painful screams, and the demonic aura gradually diminished.

Waves of sword light and spear shadows continually bled it.

Puff, puff!

Demon blood splattered from the wounds.

Elder Zhu seized the opportunity, causing the Poison Blood Sword to expand to three lengths, piercing the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s neck at seven inches.

Daoist Qing Yuan and Tang Renhao activated their magical treasures, leaving multiple blood holes on the serpent’s body.

The Silver Hook Sea Snake struggled for a long time, its blood holes becoming numerous, and its breath grew weaker.

Finally, unwillingly, it lifted its head and screeched, spraying a massive poison mist before heavily falling onto the sea surface, weakly floating.

"Congratulations, Daoist Friends, on jointly slaying this beast!"

Tang Renhao felt joy in his heart, gazing at the collapsed corpse of the Silver Hook Sea Snake, and put away the Profound Water Ruyi Umbrella.

"No!"

In the Insight Technique, the Silver Hook Sea Snake still had exceedingly faint breathing sounds.

Shen Xuan instantly Water Escaped over.

Elder Zhu cheerfully went to inspect the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s body.

"Hiss!"

The seemingly limp corpse of the Silver Hook Sea Snake suddenly stiffened up, baring its fangs, viciously biting toward Elder Zhu.

At the same time, several streams of atrociously stinking venom shot towards Daoist Qing Yuan and Tang Renhao.

Daoist Qing Yuan timely utilized the Water Spirit Gathering Essence Technique, summoning several technique fish that leapt out, transforming into layers of azure Spirit Shields tightly encasing.

Tang Renhao was utterly shocked.

His Profound Water Ruyi Umbrella was just stowed away.

Wanting to open it to ward off the venom, but it was too late!

The venom was an all-out strike by the Silver Hook Venomous Snake upon dying, incredibly swift, its contained Silver Hook Poison enough to heavily wound a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

At that moment.

In front of Tang Renhao, several dark spirit fish suddenly appeared.

Which then transformed into a vibrant azure Spiritual Wall.

The venom splashed against the azure Spiritual Wall, releasing waves of black poison mist.

The azure Spiritual Wall was also eroded in patches, its spiritual light quivering.

Ultimately, it managed to block the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s lethal attack.

Tang Renhao swiftly retreated, finally opening the Profound Water Ruyi Umbrella to shield his entire body.

Some residual venom shot towards the surface of the Profound Water Ruyi Umbrella, emitting "sizzling" sounds, the poison mist spreading.

Tang Renhao’s palms were soaked with cold sweat, his hackles raised!

If that venom had landed on him, he would have been either dead or severely injured!

He gratefully glanced at Shen Xuan beside him.

Asking him to guard the formation was just a polite remark.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Shen Xuan indeed stepped up, shielding him from the bulk of the Silver Hook Sea Snake’s deadly attack.

After spewing venom, the Silver Hook Sea Snake was utterly spent, its eyes unwillingly closing under Elder Zhu’s bloodsucking fork’s reverse stab, and once again collapsed floating on the sea surface.

This time, it was truly dead.

In Shen Xuan’s Insight Technique, the Silver Hook Sea Snake had no breath at all.

An exceedingly sharp Divine Sense forcefully swept over him.

"Who are you?" Daoist Qing Yuan coldly questioned.

Shen Xuan froze.

Just now they had allied to slay the Silver Hook Sea Snake; Daoist Qing Yuan didn’t choose to negotiate the division of spoils but instead targeted him?

"Isn’t he a disciple of your Bishui Sect?"

Elder Zhu paused his steps, saying with astonishment, "Controlling Water, Water Repelling, Water Spirit Gathering, three kinds of water techniques practiced to Great Success, and you don’t recognize?"

Daoist Qing Yuan was momentarily embarrassed.

The other water techniques were fine enough.

The Water Spirit Gathering Essence Technique was Bishui Sect’s ultimate skill.

Though it was available for external sale.

Only the Qi Cultivation Chapter was sold.

The goal was to cast a wide net, attracting loose cultivators with water talent.

After reaching Foundation Establishment, these hidden talents would inevitably join Bishui Sect seeking advanced Chapters.

Most would ultimately join the Bishui Sect.

Actually, Elder Zhu was mistaken.

Shen Xuan had reached only the minor success stage in these three water techniques.

Qi Cultivation Cultivators, due to limited spiritual power and divine sense, find it challenging to practice any of the five water techniques to Great Success.

However, he was bolstered with Critical Strike and Iron Bone talent.

When executing, the power doubled, appearing as if he mastered them to Great Success.

Elder Zhu and Daoist Qing Yuan were both Water Technique Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

The cultivator’s energy is limited.

Even after Foundation Establishment, they could only choose one or two water techniques to practice to Great Success.

Daoist Qing Yuan was Water Repelling Technique.

Elder Zhu was Poisonous Water Needle, infusing poison water into the Poison Blood Sword and bloodsucking fork.

Like Shen Xuan, achieving Great Success in three water techniques while at the Qi Cultivation Stage was unprecedented.

Absolutely a water technique talent!

Actually, Daoist Qing Yuan and Elder Zhu were too far away to clearly see Shen Xuan’s Water Escape Technique.

Additionally, Shen Xuan didn’t demonstrate the Condensed Water and Sharpness Technique.

Otherwise, they’d be even more surprised.

All five water techniques, when displayed by Shen Xuan, appeared to have reached Great Success!

"This is my brother, Shen Xuan the Talisman Master!"

Tang Renhao stepped forward to answer.

Inadvertently shielding Shen Xuan behind him.

Daoist Qing Yuan watched Tang Renhao and Shen Xuan, pondering for a moment.

"Forget it. Let’s first divide the Silver Hook Sea Snake!"

"I want the demon core and poisonous fang! The rest you can distribute!" Elder Zhu urgently said.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan’s heart stirred slightly.

A newly advanced Tier Two Silver Hook Sea Snake actually contained a demon core!

This should be the most valuable part of the Silver Hook Sea Snake.

"Agreed!"

Daoist Qing Yuan nodded and asked, "What about you, Daoist Tang?"

"I want half of the serpent meat. Shen Talisman Master shielded you from the sea snake; taking the Essence Blood would be reasonable, right?"

Daoist Qing Yuan considered briefly.

"Shen Talisman Master, I have a question for you."

"Please ask, Senior Qing Yuan."

"Your Water Spirit Gathering Essence Technique, where did it come from?"
