Shen Xuan was utterly surprised.

His voice seemed to tremble.

"Senior Zheng, what do you mean by this?"

"What do I mean?"

Zheng Jinyi gave Shen Xuan a sideways glance and said coldly, "Shen Xuan, don't say I didn't give you a way out."

"Hand over the Storage Pouch and Magical Artifact, seal your Dantian Spiritual Power, and obey quietly."

"In this way, I might spare your life."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Shen Xuan shook his head and sighed.

"Senior Zheng, I have no enmity with the Zheng Family. If in the past, I have done anything wrong, I ask for understanding, can we not laugh off grievances when we meet?"

"So easily said! Do you know that because of your Poison Talisman, more than ten people from my Zheng Family have been killed or injured! The Patriarch's old wounds have also relapsed because of it!"

At this moment, Zheng Xiwen, with blood-red eyes, was staring fixedly at Shen Xuan.

He suddenly spoke, "Young Master, something's not right. Shen Xuan is quite cunning with considerable strength, beware of deceit!"

"What is there to fear! With me here, he dares nothing!"

Zheng Jinyi responded dismissively.

Opposite him.

Shen Xuan suddenly smiled.

"Zheng Jinyi, there's nothing more to say between us!"

"I'm still too soft-hearted!"

"How dare you call our young master's name directly, you've grown tired of living!"

A Zheng Family cultivator at the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation stepped forward, shouting.

Shen Xuan spoke no more.

He had tried his best.

But Zheng Jinyi and the others were stubbornly obstinate.

So be it.

No further psychological burden would trouble him.

"You've chosen the path of death!"

As soon as the words fell.

The loud sound of water broke out.

Dozens of pitch-black Dark Spirit Fish, carrying terrifying destructive energy, leapt from Shen Xuan's body and swiftly shot towards the Zheng Family cultivators on the warship.

Fast as lightning, their speed immense.

Zheng Family cultivators failed to evade, quickly unleashing their Magical Artifact shields to defend.

However, the Dark Spirit Fish were exceptionally sharp, smashing most of the Zheng Family cultivators' Magical Artifacts directly.

The momentum unchanged, they pierced through the Spiritual Power shields, shooting right through the Zheng Family cultivators' bodies.

"Ah!"

A series of horrific screams ensued.

Except for Zheng Jinyi and Zheng Xiwen, five other Zheng Family cultivators all fell.

Each fallen Zheng Family cultivator screamed in torment.

The blood seeping from their wounds was of a terrifying deep black.

"Silver Hook Poison! Shen Xuan, you're so vicious!"

Zheng Jinyi was furious, eyes red, heart both angry and fearful.

Just now, seven Dark Spirit Fish shot towards him.

He quickly summoned his Top Grade Magical Artifact Flying Sword, transforming it into a flying sword light wheel to barely shred the Dark Spirit Fish.

"You dare scheme against us, aren't you afraid that the ancestor and Patriarch will take revenge on you?"

At this point, how could Zheng Jinyi not understand that Shen Xuan had deliberately ambushed them here.

"Do you think I'm afraid or not afraid?"

Before the words were fully spoken.

Shen Xuan's figure dashed swiftly.

His fingers like swords, he pointed at Zheng Xiwen.

A larger Dark Spirit Fish, blade-like in appearance, flashed past.

Space seemed to tear open a passage.

The body of the Dark Spirit Fish blurred and deformed, even the surrounding air seemed to warp.

"Bang!"

Zheng Xiwen let out a piercing scream.

The Sound Transmission Talisman in his hand didn't have time to be triggered before the Dark Spirit Fish shot it into a blood mist.

After reaching Perfection in Qi Cultivation, and gaining the talent of [Overturning Rivers and Seas], Shen Xuan's Water Technique power multiplied.

A casual strike turned Zheng Xiwen into fragments.

"You!"

Originally full of confidence, Zheng Jinyi broke into a cold sweat, his body hair standing on end.

This isn't like a Qi Cultivation Realm Cultivator!

He's clearly a monster!

"Water Technique Great Success!"

"And merged with [Silver Hook Poison]!"

"This person came prepared, better to retreat for now!"

No time for further thought.

Zheng Jinyi transformed into an Escape Light, controlling his sword and fleeing over water.

As a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Zheng Jinyi's reaction was impressively quick.

"Even if he cultivated the [Water Spirit Gathering Essence Technique] to great success, so what!"

"Qi Cultivation Realm is just Qi Cultivation Realm, how can he chase me down?"

"Once back on the island, the ancestor and Patriarch must be mobilized to kill this man!"

"Otherwise, he will surely become a great threat to my Zheng Family!"

Zheng Jinyi stepped on his Top Grade Flying Sword, speeding quickly over the sea.

However, when he used Foundation Establishment Divine Sense to probe.

His expression turned to shock.

Behind him, Shen Xuan chased swiftly using [Water Control].

The distance was rapidly closing.

"This person is formidable with the [Water Control Technique]!"

Both being water cultivators, Zheng Jinyi instantly recognized that Shen Xuan's Water Control Technique had also reached great success.

"Since I can't outrun him, I'll let him witness the true might of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!"

Zheng Jinyi contemplated inwardly.

This place is less than a hundred li from Mingyang Island.

Just a slight delay and the commotion of the fight will alert the island's ancestor and patriarch.

Foundation Establishment Realm against Qi Cultivation Realm.

And near his Mingyang Island.

The advantage is mine!

Zheng Jinyi deliberately slowed down, his fingers forming a sword technique while his divine sense firmly locked on the figure behind.

The distance between them kept closing.

After a few breaths.

Seeing only a dozen zhang between them.

A magnificent arc turn!

The top-grade Flying Sword was again launched, shooting out more than a dozen terrifying sword qi with great momentum.

Simultaneously, Zheng Jinyi's fingers continuously formed spell techniques.

He performed the Water Repelling Technique, trying to dissolve the water flow controlled by Shen Xuan.

However.

As the spiritual light of the technique was about to collide.

Shen Xuan simply pointed a finger.

Overturning Rivers and Seas!

The water waves in front seemed as if fed with vigor.

Suddenly exploding with immense power.

Instead of being repelled, the water flow gathered incessantly, raising towering waves that surged forward!

"What is this water technique?"

Seeing such a scene.

Zheng Jinyi's heart was filled with shock.

He, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Dealing with a late-stage Qi Cultivation water cultivator, his small-scale Water Repelling Technique unexpectedly failed!

Like fireflies quickly extinguished by the massive waves.

Zheng Jinyi didn't dare to fight anymore.

Chilled to the bone, he turned and fled.

In a flash, he flew several hundred zhang away.

Shen Xuan pursued unhurriedly.

His fingers continuously changing spell techniques.

Zheng Jinyi ran frantically all the way.

In the distance, he vaguely saw the silhouette of Mingyang Island.

"As long as I escape back to the island, I'll be saved!"

He never expected that the sharp sound of the flying sword followed from behind.

A fierce Water Qi Sword Qi, carrying extremely frightening heaven and earth origin power, flashed by from the endless void.

The water spiritual qi in the nearby sea area boiled and surged, as if thousands of Cold Ice Divine Dragons were roaring angrily!

The next moment.

With a "whoosh" sound.

Zheng Jinyi summoned a defense shield, which shattered with a bang, scattering fragments everywhere.

The Water Qi Sword Qi silently passed through his heart.

Zheng Jinyi looked incredulously at his chest.

Blood oozed from his features.

His organs were all shattered by the Water Qi Sword Qi.

...

On Mingyang Island.

Inside the practice room.

The Zheng Patriarch rarely set aside some time to cultivate and practice.

Taoist Qing Yuan, representing the Bishui Sect, ordered the Zheng and Huang families to cease fighting.

Though he was unwilling, he had to temporarily comply.

However, today he felt somewhat uneasy for some reason.

While contemplating.

Outside the practice room, the voice of a trusted family member called out in surprise.

"Patriarch, something terrible has happened!"

The Zheng Patriarch finished cultivating and stepped out of the practice room.

"What's so panicking?"

"Jinyi's soul token…"

The trusted family member's face showed terror.

The Zheng Patriarch shuddered.

Impossible!

"What happened to Jinyi?"

"The soul token is broken!"

After Foundation Establishment, Zheng Jinyi left a divine thought, placing it in the soul token.

If misfortune befalls him, the soul token would break simultaneously.

"Has Jinyi perished?"

The Zheng Patriarch's face turned pale instantly.

Zheng Jinyi was the young prodigy of the Zheng Family, the future heir to the patriarch.

"Send someone to search immediately!"

With Zheng Jinyi gone, the Zheng Family no longer had the advantage in strength over the Huang Family.

"Could it be the Huang Family hired assassins to strike in secret?"

Upon thinking this, a flash of murderous intent appeared in the Zheng Patriarch's eyes.

To destroy his lineage, such enmity will never be reconciled!
