I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Chapter 1124: Mythological Beast Ba Xia

“That’s a mythological beast?!”

An Lin was given a fright upon hearing this.

He looked up at the colossus before him again. Only now did he discover that he was unable to glean the monster’s cultivation base even after using his powerful divine sense.

Xu Xiaolan’s expression also became extremely grave. “It’s said that cultivation base of the mythological beast Ba Xia is unfathomable, and it possesses infinite strength, giving it the ability to carry mountains on its back and reverse the flow of rivers and oceans.”

“A beast that can be referred to as a mythological beast must be at the Dao Integration Stage already, so why would a creature of this caliber appear in this area of the ocean?” Bryce was perplexed.

An Lin looked down at the map in his hand before looking up at the colossus again; this time with a peculiar expression. “I feel like… from the coordinates provided, this Ba Xia IS Heavenly Dragon Island of the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas…”

Everyone instantly fell silent.

All of them turned again to look up at the mythological beast in the distance with incredulity etched on their faces.

At this moment, an ear-splitting voice suddenly swept violently toward them.

“Ao Meng, do you know why I attacked your son?”

This was Ba Xia’s voice, and it seemed to possess a boundless might.

Ao Meng’s massive body of over ten thousand feet in length was tiny as a little eel in the face of Ba Xia. “Ao Meng does not know.”

Only now did An Lin and the others discover that Ba Xia had a white dragon clamped in its mouth.

The white dragon was struggling frantically, but it was unable to struggle free from Ba Xia’s mouth. Instead, its body had been punctured by sharp teeth, and a huge quantity of blood rained down onto the ocean below.

“That white dragon seems really familiar,” Xiao Ze mused.

An Lin knew who this was as he had seen this dragon before. “He’s the Dragon King’s third son, Ao Mingyu.”

Xiao Ze came to a sudden realization upon hearing this. He had swatted that guy away with his tail before.

Ao Mingyu was slightly more powerful than Ao Shuyu. At the very least, he was able to take one strike from him.

An Lin stole a glance at Xu Xiaolan to find that there was no distress on her face. Instead, she was only surveying her grandfather and uncle with curiosity in her eyes.

Ba Xia spoke again, “Hehe, this little dragon tried to steal the divine-rank material on my back! Who gave him the guts to do so?”

Ao Meng’s heart jolted with shock.

Ao Mingyu immediately begged for his life as he pleaded, “I didn’t know! Senior! I didn’t know that divine-rank material belonged to you! I thought it was just a priceless treasure without an owner, so I made the rash mistake of taking it for myself…”

Ba Xia harrumphed coldly. “If apologies could work, then what did I grow this mouth for? You have to pay a price for waking me up from my slumber…”

Ao Mingyu trembled as an expression of shock and horror appeared on his face.

He knew that even if Ba Xia ate him in its rage, his father wouldn’t dare to do anything to Ba Xia.

“You can’t do this, Senior! Our Dragon Court cultivators are all related to you by blood! Why would you insist on being so harsh and unforgiving? You haven’t lost anything during this episode, so please let my son go!” Ao Meng couldn’t bear to see his son die before his eyes, and he pleaded for his son’s life.

Xiao Ze heaved a faint sigh. “Dragons are naturally very sensitive to treasures. Ao Mingyu may very well have simply made a mistake. However, Ba Xia is renowned for its extremely bad temper, so trying reason with it is very likely to result in failure.”

Sure enough, Ba Xia’s crimson eyes glowed with killing intent as it clamped down tightly upon the white dragon with no intention of letting it go.

Right at this moment, another huge splash erupted from the ocean.

A long, crimson dragon appeared before Ba Xia.

This was only a small dragon of around a thousand feet in length. It had pure golden eyes like the sun and a pair of dragon horns, which were as translucent and pure as red jade. Bright red scales ran along the entirety of its lithe and graceful body, which glowed with a beautiful sheen.

This dragon was like a flawless artistic masterpiece that exuded beauty and aesthetic perfection.

Its elegant body danced through the air like an ethereal divine dragon descending from the heavens as it stared intently at Ba Xia with its golden eyes.

“Senior Ba Xia, my useless little brother has indeed wronged you here. Perhaps you can hand him over to me, and I will administer punishment in your stead?”

Contrary to its domineering appearance, this dragon’s voice was a little lazy and nonchalant.

Ba Xia’s eyes narrowed slightly, and it opened its mouth right before the astonished gazes of An Lin’s team.

“Ptui!”

“Howl…”

Ao Mingyu wailed as he flew out from Ba Xia’s mouth like a globule of saliva before crashing into the ocean.

Boom!

A massive splash erupted over the seawater again.

Ao Mingyu’s body spasmed as he floated on the surface of the ocean like a dead fish. At the same time, it threw up a large mouthful of blood, having clearly sustained grievous injuries.

A Return to Void Stage Dragon Tribe mighty figure was almost spat to death by the turtle!

“I’ll spare your life since Xiaowu has requested me to do so in person. But don’t let it happen again!” Ba Xia issued a stern warning.

The red dragon bowed slightly before speaking in its lazy, ethereal voice, “Thank you, Senior.”

“Remember, everything on this Dragon Turtle Divine Mountain is mine, down to the smallest blade of grass! You can pay respect to your ancestors as much as you want, but I’ll kill anyone who dares to try and steal something from my body!” Ba Xia’s voice was like a clap of booming thunder that reverberated throughout heaven and earth.

The Dragon King of the East Sea immediately expressed his agreement and promised that he would discipline his children in the future to prevent this from ever happening again.

An Lin and his team were all dumbstruck.

“Who is that red dragon? The mythological beast, Ba Xia, did it a favor?” Xiao Ze stared up at the red dragon in the sky with incredulity etched on his face.

An Lin pondered to himself for a moment. “Xiaowu… Could she be Ao Xiaowu?!”

Xu Xiaolan also had some knowledge of the Dragon Court. “You mean the Dragon King’s first daughter, Ao Xiaowu?”

An Lin nodded. “That’s the one. Bei Lian had cautioned me in the past that I have to be careful of Ao Xiaowu.

“Ao Xiaowu is solely focused on cultivation and is averse to battle and conflict. It’s exactly because of this that the flex king of the Dragon Court, Ao Qingyu, has been referred to as the most powerful cultivator of the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas. In reality, Ao Xiaowu’s cultivation base is even more terrifying than Ao Qingyu’s. She has already reached the Half-Step Dao Integration Stage. Of course, this secret is known only to the most core members of the Dragon Court.”

Xiao Ze was enlightened upon hearing this. “That makes sense then. No wonder Ba Xia agreed to release Ao Mingyu.”

This was a world where power was more important than anything else. Ba Xia could disregard the Dragon King of the East Sea, but it had to think twice about offending an exceptional Dragon Tribe prodigy with high hopes of progressing to the Dao Integration Stage.

“If there’s nothing else you have to do here, then piss off! Come back in ten days,” Ba Xia snapped.

Its crimson eyes suddenly turned toward An Lin’s team as its voice fell.

Everyone was suddenly struck by an indescribable pressure, as if huge mountains were weighing down on their chests, giving them a powerful sense of asphyxiation.

Tina’s features paled with fear. “It… it sees us! My spell technique can’t avoid its detection…”

An Lin and the others were given a fright upon hearing this.

Only now did they realize what kind of existence they were being confronted by.

This was a Dao Integration Stage mythological beast!

They had not made any backup plans for what to do when they were spotted by a mythological beast!
