Chapter 1028: Chapter 1027: Fierce Battle at Sea (3 more)

Although it was an act, the two had to engage in a genuine duel to avoid raising Yin Jiao’s suspicions.

To prevent injuries, their strategy was simple: Zhu Qingshuang would take the offensive, while Ye Haochuan used the Strange Fire King Cauldron to defend and occasionally counterattack.

The zither music surged relentlessly, stirring the atmosphere, while the ocean roared with turbulent waves that spiraled high into the sky.

The Strange Fire King Cauldron bloomed with brilliance, its light curtain cascading down to constantly resist the Killing Tone.

”Clang clang clang!”

The metallic impact was deafening, like a thunderous roar. The zither melodies transformed into swords, spears, and halberds, striking relentlessly against the cauldron.

”Hmph, don’t think you’re guaranteed victory just because you’re ahead of me by one boundary!” Ye Haochuan added lines to make it more convincing, then seized an opening to unleash a Meteor Fist.

Spiritual power burst forth, as starlike sparks pierced the void, illuminating the sky.

”Ding...”

Zhu Qingshuang gently plucked the zither strings, summoning a Mysterious Sound Light Shield to form before her. The shimmering stars struck the shield, failing to harm her in the slightest.

”Is a mere Foundation Establishment Early Stage attempting pointless resistance? I suggest you surrender the cauldron willingly, and perhaps I might spare your life!” Zhu Qingshuang played along expertly.

”Dream on! I’ll fight to the death before I yield to you!”

Their intense clash persisted until nightfall.

Under the night sky, their duel became even more striking. Brilliant lights exploded across the ocean, spiritual energy surged and rippled far beyond.

Suddenly, an oppressive and domineering aura descended. A shadow streaked forward, extending a massive hand toward the Strange Fire King Cauldron.

”Finally here!” Ye Haochuan’s lips curled into a sly smile. Meanwhile, Zhu Qingshuang stayed immersed in character, charging ahead while exclaiming coldly, ”Where did this small fry come from, daring to fight me for the cauldron?”

Before Zhu Qingshuang arrived, her zither notes transformed into an onslaught. The intruder responded with a dismissive snort, sweeping his hand to release a burst of radiance that obliterated her assault.

Seizing the moment, Ye Haochuan recovered the cauldron into his grasp, leaving the intruder empty-handed.

It was only then that Ye Haochuan clearly saw the figure: a burly Great Han, his fierce gaze brimming with malice.

”Are you Yin Jiao?” Despite having seen Yin Jiao’s photograph before, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but verify.

”You recognize my renown? Hand over the cauldron obediently, then!”

”You’ve finally arrived. I’ve been waiting for you!” As soon as Ye Haochuan spoke, he realized something was amiss. Yin Jiao referred to himself as ”Elder,” and by calling himself ”Junior Lord,” Haochuan seemed to rank lower.

Thus, Ye Haochuan amended his words to: ”Grandpa has been waiting for you all along!”

Zhu Qingshuang then approached Ye Haochuan with a playful expression and mused, ”Tracking you down wasn’t easy, you know.”

Yin Jiao’s face darkened in shock, realizing the two were baiting him.

”Reckless fools!” Yet, Yin Jiao did not flee immediately. Despite recognizing their deceptive act, he remained certain that their cultivation levels were merely Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage and Early Stage.

Believing he could overpower them, Yin Jiao resolved to seize the cauldron by killing them both.

Yin Jiao dove down swiftly, targeting Ye Haochuan as his first strike. In Yin Jiao’s judgment, the Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator was easier to kill, and the Strange Fire King Cauldron was closely within his reach.

Zhu Qingshuang reacted promptly, her fingers swiftly plucking the zither strings. The pace of her melody accelerated as Killing Tone rippled toward Yin Jiao.

Yin Jiao let out a visceral shockwave, dispersing her musical assault and neutralizing the threat.

”Do you think joining forces will hold me back?” Yin Jiao sneered. Suddenly, in his grip appeared a massive battle axe.

The colossal axe swept through the air, crushing downward with the force of a thousand pounds, as though capable of splitting mountains.

A chilling brilliance sliced through the void, its potent energy causing violent upheavals across the ocean’s surface.

Zhu Qingshuang wasted no time, summoning the Red Moon Ancient Zither and stroking its strings to release ethereal notes.

The celestial melody ascended gracefully, transforming into an Azure Dragon that roared and charged toward the threatening axe aura.

”Boom!”

A deafening crash reverberated. Zhu Qingshuang successfully resisted Yin Jiao’s strike, standing firm without faltering.

With the Red Moon Ancient Zither in hand, Zhu Qingshuang’s combat prowess elevated significantly, rivaling a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator.

”So this is your hidden card!” Yin Jiao smirked, licking his lips with an expression of sadistic exhilaration. His gaze reflected an insatiable greed, for he had spotted another Supreme Treasure.

”A cauldron and a zither—it seems this trip is quite worthwhile!” To Yin Jiao now, the Strange Fire King Cauldron and Red Moon Ancient Zither were already his possessions.

”Worthwhile?” Ye Haochuan scoffed. ”Tonight, you came with life but won’t leave with it!”

”Hahaha!” Yin Jiao roared in laughter. ”You think being comparable to Foundation Establishment Late Stage qualifies you to challenge me?”

A sudden surge of oppressive pressure enveloped them. Zhu Qingshuang’s expression turned alarmed as she exclaimed, ”Foundation Establishment Peak!”

Ye Haochuan froze momentarily, stunned by the unforeseen development. Yin Jiao had broken through to the pinnacle Boundary!

Simultaneously, Ye Haochuan felt inward relief, appreciating Zhu Qingshuang’s presence. Otherwise, this battle would have been nearly impossible.

Despite his Foundation Establishment Early Stage, Ye Haochuan wielded the Divine Concealment Sword and the powerful Sevenfold Rainbow technique, allowing him to contend with pinnacle-level experts.

For Yin Jiao’s perspective, however, Zhu Qingshuang appeared dominant, leaving Ye Haochuan underestimated.

”Attack!” Ye Haochuan decided to exploit Yin Jiao’s underestimation and deliver a fatal blow.

Ye Haochuan charged forward using the Strange Fire King Cauldron as a shield, utilizing spells to disturb Yin Jiao.

Zhu Qingshuang supported him from the side, launching aggressive strikes through her zither melodies.

On the surface, Ye Haochuan appeared to distract while Zhu Qingshuang led the fight.

Yin Jiao remained unfazed, wielding his great axe to engage head-on. Each slash carried immense force, spreading shockwaves across the surroundings.

The distance between the three narrowed rapidly. Yet, at the moment of direct confrontation, Ye Haochuan and Zhu Qingshuang abruptly swapped roles. Zhu Qingshuang shifted to cover from the side, while Ye Haochuan wielded the Divine Concealment Sword for a frontal assault.

The sudden shift momentarily confused Yin Jiao, but he dismissed it, convinced a Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator could never withstand his onslaught!

”Clang!”

The axe collided with the Divine Concealment Sword, producing a violent metallic echo. Ye Haochuan shuddered from the impact, retreating half a step, marveling at the overwhelming strength of a pinnacle-level cultivator.

The fact that Yin Jiao evaded pursuit for so long proved his formidable skills.

”Hyaaah!” With a low growl, Ye Haochuan lunged forward, swinging his sword fiercely. ”Sword Sweep the Nine Heavens!”

The Divine Concealment Sword whirled into a storm. Ye Haochuan unleashed the first sequence of Sevenfold Rainbow—the Sword Sweep the Nine Heavens.

The sword technique was exquisite, with tendrils of majestic Sword Qi pouring down like divine punishment from the heavens, faintly carrying terrifying Thunderbolt energy. For a fleeting moment, Yin Jiao’s expression twisted in apprehension, realizing the severity yet unable to dodge in time. He had no choice but to brace for the attack!
