Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Evil Dragon_1
"Your Majesty, the site of the volcanic eruption is just ahead."
Half an hour later, three Armored Flying Boats passed through the heavy fog and halted. Immediately, dozens of islands of varying sizes with volcanos on each one, all constantly erupting lava, were visible ahead.
"It appears that these volcanic eruptions caused the tsunami."
Chu Yuan remarked after observing for a moment.
"Your Majesty, there are people over there!"
Zhou Zhong suddenly said.
"I see them."
Chu Yuan looked over. There were hundreds of people in the air above the volcano, divided into three factions.
"Haha, I didn't expect the people of Baiyun Island to all come here because of the volcanic eruption. So, have you smelled the scent of treasure and want to snatch it here?"
A middle-aged man, whose clothes were not much different from the previous group of pirates and significant cultivation had reached the Divine Abilities, was now looking at an elder dressed in white and spoke coldly.
Sometimes, unusual fluctuations at sea often coincide with the emergence of natural treasures.
Whether it is or not, such terrifying tsunami fluctuations are definitely unusual.
Of course, they would come to investigate and try their luck.
"Third Island Master of Tiger Shark Island!"
The elder of Baiyun Island who was the deputy island master replied solemnly, "Baiyun Island came here just to investigate the unusual tsunami fluctuations. The recent tsunami has already hit Baiyun Island. We are not like you, here for the treasure."
"Hehe, that's good."
The Third Island Master laughed, "Let me advise you, if there are really treasures later, it's best not to compete. Because they all belong to my Tiger Shark Island."
"Third Island Master, I advise your Tiger Shark Island not to be too arrogant!"
There was another person whose face turned unpleasant and spoke gravely.
"People from Spirit Fog Island, so you have the courage to start a war with my Tiger Shark Island. You've forgotten the pain once the wound is healed."
The Third Island Master appeared quite unscrupulous.
The faces of the people from Baiyun Island and Spirit Fog Island showed their displeasure at the Third Island Master's arrogance.
Tiger Shark Island is home to the most powerful pirates in the surrounding sea area of ten thousand miles. If we talk about strength, it is indeed weaker than both Baiyun Island and Spirit Fog Island, but the latter two have bigger families and businesses.
But Tiger Shark Island doesn't care about any of that. If they can't beat you, they will make your life uncomfortable, blockade your sea-going ships. If you dare to attack their island, they would abandon it and leave.
Then they would hide in the dark and ambush. They are extremely annoying.
"Someone else is coming!" said someone from Spirit Fog Island.
"Who?"
A sinister look appeared in the eyes of the Third Island Master.
"It's your Majesty, the Master of Dawu!"
The Armored Flying Boat stopped with a rumble in front of the volcanic islands. Dressed in imperial robes, Chu Yuan stepped from the warship into the sky, looking down at the people.
"The Master of Dawu?"
The Third Island Master's eyes gleamed with greed. He seemed to have never heard of this power, but felt Chu Yuan's strength, "He's just an Observer. I thought it would be some big-shot. But your warship is quite good."
Familiar with the ships as he was, he noticed at a glance that Chu Yuan's ship was better than the best ship of Tiger Shark Island.
"You are not the first to compliment my ship," said Chu Yuan.
"Oh? Who else?"
The Third Island Master was about to open his mouth again, but his expression changed suddenly and he shouted, "Wait, you are coming from that direction, I sent out a lot of subordinates and received no report, could it be that they already!"
"His Majesty has arrived, show your respects quickly!" At this moment, Zhou Zhong also issued a thunderous order: "Pirates from Tiger Shark Island have infringed upon His Majesty and have thus been bombarded and killed on the spot!"
"You dare to kill my men from Tiger Shark Island, you're asking for death!"
The fury of the Third Island Master was palpable. Who didn't fear the Tiger Shark Island to some extent around here? Every year, they had to pay an enormous tribute, or else travelling the seas would prove impossible.
People of White Cloud Island and Spirit Fog Island rejoiced upon hearing this. In recent years, those from Tiger Shark Island have been too arrogant. The sudden appearance of this mysterious Imperial Dynasty that left them at a disadvantage lifted their spirits.
"Boom!"
But right at that moment, dozens of volcanic islands suddenly erupted. The combustion was ten times more violent than before. The lava spewed was so terrifying that even users of Divine Abilities couldn't resist it, causing a change in the color of the sky and earth.
"The volcano has erupted again!"
The island's three Masters regained their composure.
"Such an enormous uproar, there's a great chance there may be a significant treasure beneath this volcano!"
The strong men from White Cloud Island and Spirit Fog Island also speculated.
Such occurances were not unusual. The vast sea buried countless ancient divine objects, some even predating the creation of the universe.
Thousands of years ago, someone obtained a renowned divine object from the bottom of the sea, ultimately breaking through to the level of Celestial God, setting up the Nine-star Imperial Dynasty that still stood tall in the eternal world.
At this moment, the volcano's eruption didn't calm down as before but continued endlessly. It was as if something was violently knocking from within, producing cracking sounds. Some of the islands couldn't even withstand the shaking and began to break apart.
From the volcano's mouth, a sudden shine burst out. Upon looking down, it turned out to be two gleaming lights that looked like gems.
"The treasure belongs to my Tiger Shark Island!"
The Third Island Master exploded with power, flying to the mouth of the volcano, fixing his gaze inside.
"After a full millennium, I've finally found an opportunity to escape the damn grand array that sealed me for a thousand years!"
A roar came from within the volcano followed by a terrifyingly evil aura that filled the surroundings.
Boom! The seal was completely shattered!
The two gleaming lights turned out to be not treasures, but gigantic eyes. Suddenly, a large creature flew out from the volcano. It was a hundred to two hundred feet long, pitch black, and shrouded in black mist.
"Damn, it's not a treasure, but..."
The Third Island Master felt an extremely dangerous aura all of a sudden.
He was the closest to the volcano's mouth, originally intending to seize the treasure instantly but was caught off guard. The enormous creature opened its huge mouth the moment it drilled out of the volcano's mouth and swallowed him whole.
The Third Island Master, an ascendant powerhouse, was swallowed without even a chance to struggle, a truly horrifying sight.
In this very moment, everyone clearly saw what they were up against - it was a dragon, unlike the Purple-scaled Thunder Dragon, but an incredibly evil one, exuding a decadent aura.
"That vile dragon causing havoc a thousand years ago, you're still alive!"
The people of White Cloud Island and Spirit Fog Island recognized the vile dragon and were petrified with fear.
A thousand years ago, the dragon wreaked havoc, devouring countless creatures on many islands. It only disappeared after being defeated by a powerful foe and unexpectedly was sealed here.
"So you guys still remember this king." The vile dragon said, "In that case, I will favour you and eat you!"
Its gigantic body writhed and the immense mouth swallowed the people of the two islands.
Although both islands were accompanied by ascendant powerhouses, they were no match for this vile dragon.
This dragon was immensely fierce. In just a short span of time, it devoured them all.
Three islands, three ascendant powerhouses, without even a struggle, were all eaten, a scene of unimaginable horror.
"I didn't expect to have food served as soon as I was resurrected. You stupid humans still think it's a treasure. I've been sealed for a thousand years and am weak. You are just what I needed to recover my strength."
After consuming hundreds of the strong, the dragon regained some energy and turned its gaze to the Armored Flying Boat. "There are still some people here. Although they won't recover much energy after being devoured, they're just enough to feed my stomach!"
