Chapter 429: Chapter 428: Sea Demons Cause Chaos

While talking, a middle-aged man arrived in a swift gust of wind.

Upon seeing the visitor, Tobia Armstrong stood up and said, "Master_of_Penglai_Palace is here!"

At this moment, everybody stood up and paid their respects to the newcomer.

Peter Brown thought that this surname "质" was strange, but at first glance, the man indeed appeared to have an immortal air about him.

"Greetings to all fellow cultivators." The man smiled slightly and turned his gaze toward Peter.

Seeing Peter’s puzzled look, David Taylor said, "This is Master Tristan Knight of the Penglai Fairy Island. The Penglai Sect generally doesn’t interfere with matters on the continent, making it a pure land."

"I’ve met with Master Tristan."

Peter felt that this surname was rare, but he didn’t think Tristan was being rude.

Tristan Knight smiled slightly and said, "Greetings, Peter. Your actions have opened the doors of wisdom, allowing countless people to learn about the path of cultivation. Your merit is immeasurable."

Tobia Armstrong said, "You don’t usually take action without a purpose. Tell us, what’s the situation?"

"Peter, did you offend Sea-Demons last time?"

Peter remembered the incident in the vast sea and nodded slightly, "Indeed, I killed a powerful Sea-Demon expert and many other Sea-Demons who pursued me."

"That’s it! The Sea-Demons have learned that Peter has collected an ancient treasure ship that has been wandering the sea for countless years, and have killed Sea-Demons. They have issued a Kill Order and have offered a high reward."

It was only then that everyone learned about this matter. They anxiously asked for details, and Peter recounted his experiences.

After hearing this, Tobia Armstrong looked at Peter and said, "The most mysterious place on Earth is the ocean. We still don’t know what lies in the ocean depths. We don’t know how powerful the cultivators living there are. You have offended the Sea-Demons, so you must be careful."

Peter laughed, "There are quite a few people who have bounties on me!"

At this moment, everyone looked solemnly at Tristan Knight and asked, "The Sea-Demons are making a major move?"

Tristan nodded and said, "Indeed, it is said that this time, numerous Demon Clan experts equivalent to the Qi Refining 12th Layer are coming. Peter, you need to be careful."

Peter was not very familiar with the matters of the Demon Clan, so he asked, "Are the Demon Clan members in the sea very powerful?"

Tristan nodded, "As everyone knows, in fact, if it weren’t for the fact that the land is not suitable for the Sea Clan, the continent would have long been occupied by the Sea Clan. The Demon Clan is in development, and gradually, the Sea-Demons have become the most powerful group. They live in the deep sea, where resources are far richer than on land. Many powerful demons have reached the Foundation Establishment Level. If it weren’t for the restrictions of the Earth’s Spirit Veins, their growth would be even faster. As far as we know, some Sea-Demons have even reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage."

It was obvious that Tristan knew more about the Sea-Demons. Peter asked, "Are Sea-Demons all evolved from fish species?"

Tristan shook his head and said, "Not necessarily fish. There are many marine creatures, and with the abundance of resources in the sea, it is easier to gather resources. There are many demon beasts in the ocean."

Tobia Armstrong said seriously, "Peter, there is another situation you might not be aware of. Due to nuclear pollution caused by some countries, mutated demons have appeared in the ocean. This type of demon is a new category, incredibly powerful and ferocious. These demons grow extremely fast in the ocean and have formed a large clan. Although they are considered unranked, their combat power is equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage."

"Yes, the ocean is extremely complicated at this time. You have offended a major branch of a large clan. They will most likely come to make trouble for you."

Hearing this, Peter became serious and asked, "Will they take the shape of humans when they come ashore?"

Tristan said, "As Peter may already know, the situation of the Demon Clan is not much different from ours. First-order Demon Beasts have a cultivation base equivalent to a Qi Refining Second Layer cultivator, second-order to Qi Refining Fourth Layer, third-order to Qi Refining Sixth Layer. These are easy rankings for Demon Beasts, and their cultivation progresses quickly. However, after the fourth-order, their progress becomes more difficult. It is not until the fifth stage that they are equivalent to a Qi-refining seventh layer cultivator, and it is not until the seventh-order that they reach the Qi-refinement eighth layer. This is the opposite of humans; their growth is faster earlier but slows down later. At the ninth-order, they undergo a change and can compete with the Qi Refining Ninth Layer. Then, their progress becomes the same as human cultivators. At the 12th order, they are equivalent to the Qi Refining 12th Layer. At this point, they must undergo the Bone Transformation to reach the Bone Transformation First Layer, which is equivalent to our Foundation Establishment Level. At this level, they can metamorphose into human form. Once they arrive on land, it becomes very difficult for us to see their true nature."

Tristan Knight explained in detail, and after listening, Peter Brown nodded slightly and said, "It seems that there are so many resources in the sea, and many sea demons have reached the Bone Transformation Stage."

At this time, a celestial mountain faction leader named Idan Jones said, "Peter, since they have issued a Kill Order this time, you should be careful, they will have a large number of experts come to hunt you down. You should know that since the sea demons issued a Kill Order, there have been very few people they couldn’t kill."

Peter asked, "What is their Kill Order all about?"

"The Sea Demon’s Kill Order is almost a pass throughout the entire ocean. We don’t know too much about the specifics, but we do know that after you killed one of their Demon Clan members, your aura was recorded by the Kill Order. As soon as you enter the sea, they will know of your arrival and then launch an attack on you. You have now become an enemy of the Sea Clan. It’s best not to go into the ocean when you’re not in any trouble,"

Hearing this, Peter frowned.

Tristan Knight said, "One of my purposes in coming is to hope that everyone will take this matter seriously. We don’t know if there is a Heavenly Dao path in the sea, and now there is only one Heavenly Dao path on Earth. I’m worried that the Sea Clan will come to destroy our Heavenly Dao path."

Logan Anderson said, "We must guard against this, but there is no need to be overly concerned. The Heavenly Dao path is the road for everyone to enter the Cultivation World, and under normal circumstances, no one would try to destroy it. However, we don’t know if there is a Heavenly Dao path in the sea,. I have a feeling that there is a Heavenly Dao path in the sea, but I think their path does not lead to the Cultivation World, but is more likely to lead to the Demon Realm."

As Logan Anderson said this, everyone’s expressions became even more serious.

David Taylor said, "Do you think there is a possibility that they are connected to the Demon Realm?"

"It’s possible!"

Seth Wilson said solemnly, "If that’s the case, and they are interconnected with the Demon Realm, why haven’t we seen any major demons from the Demon Realm arriving? If there were major demons from the Demon Realm arriving, the people on Earth wouldn’t be able to withstand them at all!"

Everyone was puzzled about why the powerful Sea Clan had not invaded the Continent.

At this point, Peter had a thought and seemed to remember some content from the inheritance, pondering for a moment and said, "Could it be that the ancient great powers on Earth had already set up a formation to close off the passage?"

Slapping his thigh, Jack Thompson said, "You might be right. In ancient times, there were so many legends on Earth, with all sorts of astonishingly powerful demons appearing. Where did they go afterward? I feel that this matter is not simple and might indeed have been that the great powers on Earth closed off their passage."

"Exactly, in the legends, there really were many Demon Clan members with outstanding abilities, which means that there truly were so many powerful demons on Earth. However, all of these demons disappeared without exception eventually, which indicates that there were great powers secretly helping the people of Earth."

Tristan Knight said, "We have our suspicions about this, but recently the Demon Clan’s activities have become more frequent, and more and more things are happening in the sea. Shipwrecks are a small matter, and typhoons have been causing some tsunamis to happen continuously. Moreover, planes crashed in the sea. While these reasons may seem normal to ordinary people, to us, they could be the result of the Demon Clan stirring up trouble. We cannot help but pay attention to this."

Everyone was a sect leader, and they all knew about many things. When they heard this, they all began to think about it seriously.

Logan Anderson said, "Could the seals or formations be shaking now?"

Jack Thompson nodded slightly and said, "That’s also possible. If this is the case, the problem is huge. There were great powers helping Earth before, but now the cultivators on Earth only have such cultivation levels. How can they possibly withstand the attack of powerful demons?"

Peter said, "No matter what the situation is, we can investigate it. I’ll get ready and go to the sea next time to see what the demon beasts have developed into in the sea."

"Peter, don’t be impulsive about this, the sea demons are a very powerful group. If you don’t have absolute certainty, it’s best not to provoke them."

Several sect leaders advised Peter.

Peter said, "You just said that we don’t know what kind of situation the Demon Clan is in the sea. If we don’t find out about their situation and something happens on their side, we won’t even have time to prepare, and the people on Earth could be in danger!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded vigorously, unable to deny the reasonableness of Peter’s words.

"Well, in order to protect the Earth from the next demon invasion, it’s time for us to raise our cultivation levels. Everyone, find the Lingcao for the Foundation-Establishment Pill as soon as possible. Let’s see if we can succeed in establishing our foundations," Tobia Armstrong’s expression became serious at this point.
