I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2538 - 1144: Accepting the Flood Dragon into the Law Domain

A colossal dragon tail whipped across the firmament, roaring like a thunderclap, yet it struck nothing but thin air before crashing into the Mysterious Sea, churning up titanic waves.

Surfacing from the depths, the ancient flood dragon revealed a body the color of ink, accented with flickering golden highlights. A cerulean Treasure Bead hovered above its majestic crown, and its pupils of gold locked onto Chen Mobai, who was effortlessly perched upon the shoulder of his Yi Yuan Avatar.

"Where are the rest of your companions? Why not all come out at once? It would be far more efficient if I eliminated the lot of you today."

In the creature's estimation, it was impossible for Chen Mobai to stand against it alone. It assumed the Righteous Deity Transformation cultivators from the Eastern Continent had formed a coalition, likely with all five gathered nearby.

"To deal with a creature like you, I am more than enough on my own," Chen Mobai replied with a calm smile. As his Divine Sense surged, the multicolored lightning within the dark clouds began to flicker, descending toward the surface of the Mysterious Sea as he mimicked the onset of the Primordial Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder.

"Hmph, Da Kong must be using the Void Secret Technique to conceal your allies. I shall slay you first, then settle the score with the rest of them."

The flood dragon remained skeptical, anchoring the power of the Sea Suppressing Bead around its form for absolute protection. Dismissing any potential traps from the Eastern Continent's Deity Transformation cultivators, it prepared to shatter the opposition through sheer force.

This reaction caused Chen Mobai to furrow his brows slightly.

During their prior engagements, the flood dragon had always relied on brute force, utilizing the Sea Suppressing Bead to batter the Primordial Clock, constantly leveraging the artifact's status as a pinnacle piece of the Six Realms to claim dominance.

Yet, because it feared a potential ambush from the Dustless True Monarch and his peers, the beast clearly prioritized keeping the Sea Suppressing Bead close to its body.

This meant that if Chen Mobai deployed his Law Domain to consume the target, he still had to bypass or account for that formidable artifact.

However, Chen Mobai had already accounted for this. He remained confident that his Law Domain, reinforced by the Sixth Rank Superior Grade Primordial Clock, was sufficient to suppress the beast even without the aid of the Mysterious Sea's environmental energy.

With that resolve, Chen Mobai ceased his hesitation. His vast Divine Sense erupted, and the feigned electrical barrage transformed into a sweeping net of brilliant light, woven with threads of Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light that plummeted toward the dragon.

"Hmph, pathetic trinkets!"

Confronted with two divine arts capable of obliterating an average Fifth Rank True Spirit, the flood dragon scoffed. The cerulean Treasure Bead glowed with intense brilliance, drawing vast currents from the Mysterious Sea to manifest tens of thousands of water barriers in its defense.

The Great Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Light struck first, carving through the liquid screens while transmogrifying the Water Elemental Power into Five Element Spiritual Energy, effectively absorbing it into its own influence.

However, the sheer volume of barriers proved immense. Even with its tireless assault, the light only managed to pierce a third of the defensive layers.

Rumble!

Worn thin by the dragon’s immense and pure Water Element True Power, those remaining barriers were finally met by the full weight of the Primordial Five Elements Extinguishing Divine Thunder, resulting in a series of earth-shaking, explosive impacts.

The concussive shockwaves caused the Dragon Palace anchored at the Sea Eye to shudder. The young flood dragon, having only just nursed its wounds back to health, had intended to lead a legion of its kin to aid its sire. Upon witnessing the cataclysmic energy clashing above, it retreated in haste.

It suspected the lurking Eastern Continent Deity Transformations were merely baiting it, waiting to seize a weaker target to leverage against its father. Therefore, it chose to remain within the safety of the Dragon Palace to offer its vocal support.

[With the Sea Suppressing Bead at his command and the backing of the Mysterious Sea Eye, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be held to a stalemate. I shall await good news from within the sanctum.]

Reassured by this logic, the younger dragon relaxed, retreating from the front lines to observe the struggle via Divine Sense.

Chen Mobai and the older flood dragon were intimately familiar with the other's limitations. Following several trades of divine arts, the Yi Yuan Avatar manifested the full potential of its upgraded Primordial Clock, narrowly parrying the creature's overwhelming strike.

"So, your clock has evolved. It makes sense now why you dared to venture to my Dragon Palace and court death."

After the collision, the creature realized the artifact wielded by the Yi Yuan Avatar had undergone both a physical transformation and a surge in power. If not for the favorable conditions of the Mysterious Sea, the Sea Suppressing Bead might have struggled to contain it.

Thinking this, the flood dragon felt a sense of relief regarding Chen Mobai’s hubris. Had this weapon been kept secret until the dragon stepped onto shore, it might have collaborated with the Xuanji Instrument above to orchestrate a lethal trap.

"I never engage in a conflict without thorough preparation. My arrival today marks the beginning of your end."

Chen Mobai pressed his verbal assault while the storm clouds above, having endured several clashes, began to descend toward the water's surface, manifesting as a cluster of mist filled with the hum of colorful, flickering electricity.

"Hmph, a paltry attempt to weave formations in the void? Behind the protection of my Sea Suppressing Bead, you won't even scratch my scales."

The flood dragon observed the shifting environment but maintained supreme confidence, allowing the cerulean bead to hover serenely above its head. Though it sensed its vision and sensory range being dampened, it simply assumed Chen Mobai was desperately creating an opening for his hidden allies to strike.

"I hope you maintain that confidence until the very end."
