Chapter 689 The Rise of the Dragon King of the East Sea
"Old dog Lu, I think you'd better stop making a futile struggle."
Don't even think about reinforcements. After the second spiritual energy revival, the East Sea has expanded many times over.
Your human land is probably the same.
No matter what kind of capital city it is, whether it's Wuhan or Guangzhou, it's at least tens of thousands of miles away from your Shanghai.
Even if we find it, what then?
Do you think they can bring a large army to help you?
Moreover, even if they could come, could they be a match for me, Ao Hong, the Dragon King of the East Sea?
If I eat her, she'll suffer less.
"If any enemies come from beyond the heavens in the future, and I personally suppress them, half the credit will be due to you."
Above the survivor base in Shanghai, a giant dragon floats casually in the air, its body randomly stacked and coiled.
Its silvery-white scales, like a mirror, reflect the sunlight, making it appear extremely luxurious.
Opposite it, three old men floated in mid-air, their expressions somber, confronting it.
The three people and the dragon did not fight to the death; they simply stood proudly high in the sky, seemingly chatting idly as they looked down at the battlefield below.
As the top combatants on both sides, these three old men from Shanghai could barely fight to a draw with Ao Hong, the Dragon King of Longhai.
As for Ao Hong, the Dragon King of the East Sea, he felt that it would be quite troublesome to kill these three old men working together, so after a few battles, he did not want to do any more futile efforts.
Therefore, Ao Hong simply stopped fighting and watched the battle from mid-air to oversee the troops.
The three old men knew that if they continued fighting, and their coordination faltered even slightly, and Ao Hong caught them, they would be in danger of serious injury or even death.
They are old and not afraid of death, but if even one of them dies, the entire battle situation in Shanghai will completely collapse.
Therefore, although they were anxious about the battle below, they could only waste time with Ao Hong in mid-air.
They knew very well that if they dared to interfere in the battle below, Ao Hong would not hesitate to retaliate against them.
They killed a fifth-tier subordinate of Ao Tian, and Ao Hong will also kill a fifth-tier subordinate of Mo Du.
Ao Hong, this dragon, is ruthless and doesn't care about the lives of his subordinates.
They even suspected that Ao Hong sometimes deliberately sent his subordinates to be killed by powerful figures in the Demon City.
In this way, Ao Hong's group of fifth-tier dragon clan powerhouses could be killed and eaten by the powerhouses of the Demon City, and then converted into their own combat power.
Next, Ao Hong can kill the powerful figures in the Demon City and reclaim these resources.
Perhaps Ao Hong didn't want to eat the powerful dragons, or perhaps it wanted to maintain the unity within its East Sea Dragon Palace, which is why it came in such a roundabout way.
However, regardless of what Ao Hong thought, the three elders were well aware that all they could do now was to keep Ao Hong occupied and let others decide the course of the battle.
But with the war dragging on for so long, they've given up hope on the remaining powerhouses in Shanghai.
There was no other way. The East Sea Dragon Palace and the Yellow Sea Dragon Palace under Ao Hong's command, together, had a combined force. Although they had fewer fifth-tier combat power than those in Shanghai, the proportion of elites among them was much higher.
Aside from Ao Hong, there is also Ao Ba, the Yellow Sea Dragon King, who is also at the late stage of the fifth rank. One of them can suppress all the other older generation powerhouses in Shanghai, except for the three of them.
In addition to these two Dragon Kings, there are four other true dragons, far stronger than the younger generation of powerhouses in Shanghai.
Adding to the other dragon clan powerhouses who, while not quite at the true dragon level, were not far from it, even though the Shanghai side clearly had more fifth-tier powerhouses, the overall situation on the battlefield, the balance of victory, still tilted towards Ao Hong's side.
Now, all they can do is hope that an external force will break this fragile balance.
The fact that Shanghai secretly sent a group of people seeking help out of the Dragon Clan's encirclement could not be kept from Ao Hong.
After all, Ao Hong was a fifth-order space-type expert, and much stronger than all the fifth-order space-type experts in Shanghai!
The fluctuations in space could not escape Ao Hong's perception.
However, Ao Hong didn't care about this.
Only a few small fry managed to escape.
Moreover, it secretly hoped that those small fry would actually attract more powerful humans.
The East China Sea is much larger in area than the Bohai Sea.
Therefore, in terms of natural resources and evolutionary resources, it is naturally very rich.
However, there is still a limit to abundance. After leaping over the tenth Dragon Gate and becoming the Dragon King of the East Sea, Ao Hong began to seize all the resources of the East Sea and put them into his own Dragon Palace.
It is precisely because of this that its strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and a large number of fifth-tier dragons have appeared under its command.
After completing its unification of the country, it first made a grand journey to the Yellow Sea.
It is proud, arrogant, and extremely domineering.
As a chosen one of the dragon race who could leap over the tenth dragon gate, how could having only a few true dragon subordinates be enough?
It also wants to conquer the Dragon King!
It wants to become the Dragon King among Dragon Kings, and have the Dragon King as its subordinate!
As it predicted, Ao Ba, the Dragon King of the Yellow Sea, was a good-for-nothing, barely stronger than an ordinary true dragon that had just leaped over the ninth dragon gate.
Therefore, it easily subdued Ao Ba, without even giving it a chance to escape back to the Dragon Palace and use the formation to defend against the enemy.
After all, its special ability is spatial manipulation, making it extremely difficult to escape from its claws.
After being thoroughly beaten up, Huanghai Dragon King Ao Ba, though unwilling, had no choice but to submit.
Because Ao Hong threatened it that if it did not submit, Ao Hong would eat it.
Moreover, even if it escapes back to the Yellow Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Hong can maintain a safe distance from the formation and block its entrance.
In this great era of spiritual revival, although the Dragon Palace has formations to gather spiritual energy, making spiritual energy abundant and cultivation worry-free.
But they still eat other evolved creatures, which allows them to evolve faster.
If you're blocked from entering the house your whole life, you're completely ruined.
There was nothing Ao Ba could do but submit.
Later, Ao Hong wanted to continue expanding his territory, hunting more evolved creatures, and making himself stronger.
Initially, it planned to head east towards the vast Pacific Ocean.
However, it discovered that the seawater in that area appeared to be severely polluted, with a sharp decrease in biological density.
Because he couldn't determine the size of the polluted area—perhaps several thousand kilometers, tens of thousands of kilometers, or even the entire Pacific Ocean—Ao Hong changed his mind.
It led its two major dragon palaces to the nearest coast and followed the waterways to the mouth of the Yangtze River.
Since expanding our territory at sea has been affected, let's invade the land!
The ocean has a much larger total number of evolved organisms, but on land, humans also have a lot of strange and wonderful things.
They can use those ingenious techniques to make human evolvers improve faster and increase the number of strong individuals!
For Ao Hong, eating fish is eating, and eating people is also eating.
As long as it can promote evolution and make itself stronger, it doesn't care what it eats; it's not picky about food.
If it weren't for the need to unite its forces, it would have devoured all the powerful dragons from both dragon palaces!
On the other hand, it also fears that the dragon ancestors disliked the fact that dragons eat their own kind. Although this is not explicitly stated in the dragon heritage, it is always better to be cautious.
That's perfect, if it's about eating people, then there's no need to worry about it.
