The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

Swoosh

Swoosh

Swoosh

"We won't let you get on this ship!"

Three of the four elders of the Mercenary Association flew out of the ship to confront Sea King Modu.

"Elder Hong, we'll stall as much as possible. Please get the disciples out of here in the meantime!"

Seeing these elders sacrificing themselves, Elder Hong gritted his teeth but he didn't waste time and formed several hand seals.

"Kukuku!"

Sea King Modu began a round of laughter.

"You think you have what it takes to stall me?"

Sea King Modu raised his hand and swiftly slap towards the elder that had just spoken.

BANG!

Despite releasing his cultivation to its limit to resist Sea King Modu's palm, he was still directly killed.

Terrifying.

With only a single strike a Quasi Soul Transformation Realm cultivator had literally been slapped to death.

The two elders who didn't have time to react to save their comrade looked at Sea King Modu with horrified expressions.

"Did you seriously think that you weaklings could go against me just because my cultivation had dropped to the Quasi Soul Transportation Realm? A wounded tiger is still a tiger, and cornered rat is still a cornered rat."

The two elder hearing this had their hearts pounding wildly in their chest, but they didn't back down.

BANG!

BANG!

They released their auras causing the void around them to distort into a hazy mess. The disciples on the ship despite being protected by the ship's barrier could feel the suffocating pressure of these two elders.

Despite what Sea King Modu might think, these two were still god-like beings in these disciples' eyes.

Just how many Quasi Soul Transformation Realm cultivators were there on the Maple Continent? Not even a handful had managed to reach that level of cultivation.

Below the Soul Transformation Realm, these two could be said to be invincible under heaven. But in this situation, these two elders were reduced to mere ants in front of Sea King Modu.

Feeling the aura these two elders were releasing, Sea King Modu snorted.

"Burning your cultivations won't make a fucking difference, you'll still be killed. Hm?"

Just as Sea King Modu said those words, he saw the ship had broken his restraints before bursting forward.

"Don't think about leaving while I'm here!"

Sea King Modu immediately made a move to stop the ship, however, the two elders blocked his path.

With cold eyes, Sea King Modu slapped out with his palm once again like he was swatting away two annoying flies.

Immediately, a fifty-meter palm projection appeared in the night sky and headed towards the two elders while shattering the void on its way.

With a solemn expression, one of the elders threw out a parchment that grew to eighty meters; larger than Sea King Modu's palm attack. A complicated sigil was at the center of this Heavenly Parchment that glowed a blinding light as the elder infused his Qi into it.

Sea King Modu watched with an ugly expression as his palm was blocked by the Heavenly Parchment. But he didn't have time to curse this sudden development as a sword had appeared out of nowhere behind him.

Sea King Modu didn't sense this attack coming and was caught off guard. Blood spurted from his right shoulder as he barely managed to move his neck out of the way.

"Bastard!"

Sea King Modu was enraged and he threw a fist toward the void. The void shattered and the other elder was forced out while coughing out a mouth full of blood.

The elder had on a cloak that was releasing strong spatial fluctuations.

Seeing this Sea King Modu's face became even uglier.

These two elders were ants in his eyes, but these two Spirit Artifacts that they pulled out were Supreme-grade Spirit Artifacts. A Supreme-grade Spirit Artifact was when a Top-grade Spirit Artifact had reached close to becoming a Quasi Celestial Treasure but fall short by a bit.

Just one Supreme grade Spirit Artifact was rare to come across and even Sea King Modu didn't have one, but here in front of him, two weaklings were able to pull out two.

"It's those wealthy Mercenary Association bastards."

Sea King Modu looked at the ship leaving over the horizon and gritted his teeth.

He wanted to finish this quickly and go after the ship so he wasted no time using his drop of blood essence.

His cultivation was raised to the Early Soul Transformation Realm at the cusp of entering the Mid Soul Transformation Realm.

Swoosh!

Sea King Modu's figure quickly dashed towards the elder with Heavenly Parchment, completely ignoring the second elder.

"Bastard!"

Seeing this the second elder quickly dashed forward to help the first elder.

Loud explosions occur as the three began fighting. No, it shouldn't be called a fight but a one-sided assault.

Even with the two Supreme grade Spirit Artifacts, the two elders could only be on the defensive. After one incense worth of time, the elder with the Heavenly Parchment couldn't hold out anymore.

Sea King Modu's attacks were traveling through the Heavenly Parchment to rattle his internal organs along with the fact that he was getting weaker from burning his cultivation, his body suddenly exploded into a gory mess of blood and flesh.

His Nascent Soul didn't survive either, before it could escape Sea King Modu slapped out with his palm disintegrating it.

Sea King Modu collected the Heavenly Parchment before he swept his hand in the surroundings.

The void then shattered revealing the second elder bare.

With one teleportation, Sea King Modu appeared in front of him with a raised palm to crush his skull.

However, a cold chill went down Sea King Modu's spine as the cloak the elder was wearing began to radiate chaotic fluctuations.

Seeing the mad look in the second elder's eyes Sea King Modu let out a loud curse.

Then... BOOOOOOOM!!!

A massive explosion that was almost as strong as a nuclear bomb was heard going off. The shockwave parted the clouds in the sky as a mushroom visible from several hundred kilometers away take shape.

The sea several thousand meters below was relatively unaffected due to the explosion occurring in the sky, but thirty-meter tsunami-like waves were still created.

*Vomit*

Several kilometers away from the explosion, Sea King Modu's mangled and bloody figure appeared via teleportation. He coughed out several mouths full of blood that contain his internal organs.

Sea King Modu while wiping what was left of his destroyed mouth wanted to curse, but that explosion not only destroyed half his face and body but damaged his throat. He could only settle with cursing in his head.

Sea King Modu didn't waste time and immediately shot towards the horizon.

The wounds on his body bled profusely but he was oblivious to it and the pain as his mind was solely focused on getting his hands on those nutrients.

He had suffered so much loss in pursuit of them. This clone of his was no longer useful. The injuries it sustained to its soul and body were not worth the cost to heal.

Its cultivation level was barely at the Early Nascent Soul Realm at this point. And worst of all the drop of essence blood was further damaged.

He had been able to protect it from that explosion somewhat, however, he had used it one too many times, and the power he could draw from it was reduced.

In order to make up for the loss of this clone and drop of essence blood Sea King Modu needed to obtain those nutrients. No! He didn't need to he had to obtain them by any means necessary!!

With one bloodshot eye, Sea King Modu used his full speed to catch up to the ship. However, he felt that his speed was too slow, the reinforcements from the Southern Border could reach him at any moment.

"NO! I'll get those brats, I'll definitely get them!!"

Sea King Modu was both anxious and enraged as he used his drop of essence blood. He pushed it to the limit and as a purple light emanated from his forehead, his cultivation briefly entered the Soul Transformation Realm.

His body shot forward at an unbelievable speed, but he suddenly coughed out a mouth full of blood as his injuries were aggravated. Not only that as he was focusing on boosting his cultivation, the small needle which was the sword energy he easily suppressed with his blood essence before, was now like a dagger in his head.

"URGH!!"

Sea King Modu released a blood-curdling scream. Both his mind and body were on the verge of collapse, but his determination was as firm as steel.

This was only a clone so the pain he was feeling didn't matter, he just had to push through it and reach that ship. All of this would be worth it if he could just reach that ship and grab those brats.

After enduring this hell-like torture for several minutes, Sea King Modu saw the faint outline of the ship on the dark horizon.

His one eye beamed with joy.

He didn't hesitate to push his drop of blood essence further.

With one large teleportation, the distance between him and the ship was shortening. But a second later a cloud of blood mist burst from his mangled body.

Sea King Modu's body staggered but he gritted his teeth.

"I don't need all of them, I just need that brat with the pure laws. Forget about reaching the Heavenly Palace Realm with my original body, with the way things are going the original drop of essence blood is going to lose a significant portion of its strength because of how I'm using the projection this clone has. After getting my hands on that brat, I'll go into seclusion and cultivate him as my clone. It wouldn't be too late to come out after a hundred years and eradicate the four borders. Even if that last surviving member of the Leviathan Race unlocks his bloodline and tries to unite the Four Continents Oceans, I'll still be able to kill him."

With the eye of a demon, Sea King Modu stared at the ship as he teleported once again. Blood mist immediately burst from his body right after, but he still continued to teleport.

As the distance between him and the ship got closer and closer, his determination got stronger and stronger.

Soon, with one final teleportation, he was right over the ship. But at the same time, one of his arms suddenly combusted into flesh and bones.

Sea King Modu however, ignored this and instead slapped out with his hand. A giant palm shadow immediately descend and slammed into the ship.

With a loud bang, the ship's barrier was destroyed and it came to a grinding stop.
