Chapter 2269 - 2272: The Bashful Princess and the Relieved Great Sea Demon King

Amidst the invigorating cheers from the crowd of sea demons, the True Yuan of the five young great sea demons present, which was already imbued with a reckless and sinister aura, became even more powerful in an instant, stirring up a gale that not only sent sand and stones flying on site.

Even Shen Qiang's collar and short hair in front of his forehead were fluttering in that terrifying wind.

Boom!

With the ground's massive tremor, a long spear entwined with terrifying purple light suddenly appeared in the hands of the leader among the five, and the rampaging True Yuan became extremely sharp.

Not only did it make the cheers around them even more deafening, but the other four young great sea demons also showed their weapons instantly.

Without exception, whether it was a spear or a trident, the styles differed, but everything remained consistent.

It was very normal.

After all, in the water, there is resistance, and only weapons like long spears and lances have the least resistance and the greatest destructive power, as for those who wield large knives underwater, they are either foolish or showboating.

"Trying to strut about with a tiny knife smaller than a toothpick, you're really overestimating yourself!"

"Just scrap metal beneath my spear, it's nothing but shambles!"

"Breaking such things is easy for me, Shen Qiang, you can kneel!"

Amid their loud laughter, Shen Qiang, who had already walked past them, turned his back on them and chuckled. Though at this time, Shen Qiang's True Yuan was almost depleted, fortunately, the sword array was formed beforehand. Despite True Yuan being almost insufficient to activate it,

But don't forget, for ordinary cultivators, the most effortless, accurate, and simple way to cast techniques is hand seals!

Boom!

Single-handed sword technique!

As Shen Qiang approached with a smile, with his collar fluttering and suddenly forming a sword technique hand seal, the great sea demon king Yu Jiang couldn't help but shiver in his heart.

Almost simultaneously, the sword array made up of ten thousand surgical knives in the sky not only began to shimmer with silver light, but even the huge bubble-like canopy where everyone was, suddenly trembled.

In the meantime.

Old butler Gui Shu, standing beside the sea demon king Yu Jiang, also had his eyes lit up brightly.

Because at this moment, he clearly saw that Shen Qiang's hand had released his hold on the graceful Jinli Qianning beside him.

This made him immediately concentrate.

"The previous sword formations used by Shen Qiang were all imprinted in his mind. Now, with his True Yuan too consumed, the Heart Seal is insufficient to drive it, so he must use hand seals?"

"Great!" Gui Shu's eyes were incredibly bright: "In nearly ten thousand years, I've seen countless capable people in the cultivation world. As long as Shen Qiang forms seals, I would know what his sword array is."

This might seem slow to say, but in reality, it was all in an instant's thought.

And almost at the moment Gui Shu's thought was born.

Smyling, Shen Qiang indeed formed seals as expected.

But in just one moment, Gui Shu was stunned.

Because almost in the blink of an eye, Shen Qiang's hands completed the seals at a speed that nearly broke the limit of eyesight.

"Double Crane, Six Wheels, don't know, Tao Finger, Three Pure Ones Finger, haven't seen, Five Thunders, haven't seen, Sky Flipping, haven't seen, haven't seen, haven't seen, Beidou, haven't seen, haven't seen, yet again haven't seen, Furious Respect, haven't seen, yet again haven't seen, haven't seen again... finished!"

In less than a second in total, but the intensely focused Gui Shu not only suddenly felt very tired, even his eyes began to ache.

And just as he sighed and no longer attempted to clearly see Shen Qiang's hand seals simultaneously.

Ye Guyun, accompanying Shen Qiang, had his eyes wide open, exclaimed with excitement after an 'oh', and shouted loudly: "Naruto! Boss, you look so cool! So fast, your moves look amazing, this is good, you actually know ninjutsu!"

Almost at the same time Ye Guyun exclaimed in surprise.

Kaboom!

The ground behind had already collapsed with a roar.

Countless streams of seawater flooded in from the cracked ground.

Not only did the bubble-like huge canopy rupture, the terrifying sword array instantly devoured the five arrogant young great sea demons.

Instantly, all the sea demons were colorless with fear, their eyes filled with shock.

The scene went silent.

Everyone watched in terror as the smokey dust gradually dissipated, revealing the instantly destroyed ground, and the five great sea demons, collapsing to the ground, their bodies riddled with blood.

At this moment, they were so shocked that they couldn't even exclaim 'how powerful!'

Pop!

At this moment, Shen Qiang lightly slapped the back of Ye Guyun's head.

Subsequently, watching the stunned Ye Guyun, Shen Qiang frowned and said: "Ignorant! Always shouting Naruto, the Taoist nine-word mantra originated from Ge Hong's "Baopuzi Inner Chapters". The original text says 'When coming to arms, all form arrays and proceed ahead.'."

"Once it was introduced to Japan, it was mistakenly transcribed into 'Rin, Pyō, Tō, Sha, Kai, Jin, Retsu, Zai, Zen, making it a mantra valued by the Japanese Shugendo practitioners, and at the same time, they stole the Five Elements Escape Technique from the small sect in the cultivation world, becoming the foundation of their cultivation and gradually developing other techniques."

"So when it comes to seals, techniques, Huaxia is their ancestor!"

A bewildered Ye Guyun responded with an 'oh'.

Seeing her puzzled eyes, Shen Qiang said helplessly: "They keep yelling Chakra, but that's actually just True Yuan. In fact, those things are just techniques that any cultivator beyond the Foundation Establishment Stage in the cultivation world would use, so don't make a fuss and embarrass me again."

"Okay! I know!" Ye Guyun pouted, seemingly displeased at being lectured in public.

Shen Qiang was helpless.

At this moment, seeing that the situation was already settled, the great sea demon king Yu Jiang and Gui Shu at the entrance of the cave mansion had a gleam in their eyes.

"Rescue them!"

The great sea demon king spoke.

Instantly, dozens of great demons lunged toward Shen Qiang's back like shooting stars, rushing to rescue the five young great sea demons.

"Rest assured, I have control over it, not one of them will die." Shen Qiang smiled, embracing Qianning, as he walked to the sea demon king Yu Jiang.

The sea demon king Yu Jiang chuckled.

At this moment, Qianning beside Shen Qiang, made a graceful bow and said: "Qianning greets Father King."

"Rise."

Qianning stood up, then bowed to Gui Shu and said: "Qianning greets Uncle King."

"Stand up quickly, no need for formality." Gui Shu smiled.

Meanwhile, behind Shen Qiang, exclamations had already erupted.

"They're alive, all five warriors are alive!"

Instantly, those great sea demons were inexplicably invigorated again, chanting something in high spirits in a language Shen Qiang completely couldn't understand.

"They are celebrating the safe return of the warriors," Qianning transmitted.

Shen Qiang smiled, finding it rather interesting how the sea clan seemed to take victory and defeat in stride.

Meanwhile, the sea demon king Yu Jiang smiled faintly and said: "Shen Medicine King has done well, the sea clan respects true warriors, only the strongest have the right to be with my daughter."

"I have prepared the betrothal gift for you, want to see it now?" Shen Qiang chuckled, gleaning from the sea demon king Yu Jiang's smile that the arrangement to find Qianning was intentional, and returning together was what Yu Jiang wanted to see.

"No rush with that." The sea demon king Yu Jiang said calmly: "Please come in, but I must remind you, those young sea demons outside are merely appetizers, the truly tough ones are inside, going for the Divine Corpse without help from them is suicidal!"
