Chapter Fifty-Six: Two Thousand Three Journeys to the Sea in

extremely slender and the feathers extremely thin.As its wings beat, a trail of swirling black smoke trails from its tail.The body is like a phantom, both real and unreal.“These people are all prodigi..."Sea people"

Growing up in the West, Jiang Wang had never heard of this term.

Even the rarely seen demon race, he had heard of it, and even witnessed it in the ferocious beast's den in the Xu Kingdom, knowing the significance of the demon race to the Kaimai Pill. He had also heard of demons, witnessed demons, and even the true demon Song Wanxi fell into the Myriad Realms Waste Tomb before him.

But the Sea Clan, truly unfamiliar.

Zhong Xuan laughed bitterly: "You're not the only one. I was born in Qi State, and before this, I knew just as little about the sea tribe as you."

He said, "You should know what the defining event of the end of the Middle Ages was, right"

"This point of history, the Daoist Academy still mentioned it, I remember it was 'The Human Emperor Chases the Dragon Emperor'."

Speaking of this, Jiang Wang paused: "Dragon Clan Sea Clan"

Zhong Xuan sighed deeply and said, “At the end of the ancient times, Emperor Li Shan banished the Dragon Emperor, causing the dragon race to vanish from the world. Since then, there has been no trace of them in human history. After the ancient times, all news about the dragon race disappeared completely. Have you ever thought about where they went”

“Dragons have never disappeared, they’ve always been longing to return to the world.”

"And the sea race, at first, was only a part of water creatures loyal to the Dragon Emperor."

“During the great war between the Human Emperor and the Dragon Emperor in the ancient times, the Aquatic race split. One faction allied with the human race, still calling themselves the Aquatic race, while the other followed the Dragon Emperor into the Vast Sea, becoming the Sea Race ever since.”

“At the beginning, the Aquatic and Marine Races were simply different names for the same thing, with differing stances. But as time passed, their ancestral roots diverged, becoming distinct. Now, the Aquatic Race is the Aquatic Race, and the Marine Race is the Marine Race. There is no possibility of confusion anymore.”

Jiang Wang listened attentively: "So, the Hai Clan are the descendants of the Dragon Clan and part of the ancient water tribes"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"You could say that," Chongxuan nodded in agreement. "But perhaps it also incorporates some of the original races from Cang Hai. I just don't have enough detailed information to confirm."

“Have the Hai Clan always existed” "Then why have I never heard of them in the Eastern Region"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Do you think, why is Qi great Why can it dominate the East, and why is it the strongest nation in the world”

Heavy Xuan's voice was slow and deep: "Because the Qi state's army has been guarding the sea for thousands of years, people have never heard of sea creatures!"

Jiang Wang stood in respectful awe: "Just like the armies of Jing and Mu guarding the desolate border, preventing the tide of demons. All these years, has there been constant war in Cang Hai"

“I also specifically checked maritime intelligence this time, and I was given some permissions to learn about these things.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Chong Xuan Sheng was also sighing: “I often think, Qi Jiu's soldiers were unmatched in their prowess. Why was he so cautious when conquering a small nation like Yang Wen had spent many years without success, and now it fell to me, a junior, to push things forward. I always thought it was the restraint of Jing and Guo. Now I know, it’s mainly because most of Qi's elite troops were tied down by the Sea Clan.”

Jiang Wang wondered, “If a large army has been stationed in the East China Sea for years, the information about the sea tribes shouldn't be so well-hidden. With an army of thousands or even millions, how could everyone keep it a secret”

"This is another point related to what you said."

"Never leave your home without seeing the ocean"

Chongxuan nodded slightly: "Between the Cang Hai and the near sea, there is a realm called the Mi Jie. It is the main battlefield between the human race and the sea race. There, 'the sky is night, the sea surface is dark, the northwest cannot be seen, and the southeast cannot be distinguished.' Only those who are strong above the Wai Lou realm can enter that battlefield. Because without the guidance of the Star Tower, they will definitely get lost at sea, so there is the saying 'One who doesn't reach Wai Lou shouldn't go to sea.'"

The existence of the Sea Clan has never been truly hidden, it has simply never been open to cultivators and ordinary people below the realm. This is the responsibility and burden of the strong, and also the protection that those who stand at the peak of cultivation offer to those who come after them.

All cultivators above the Outer Court realm in my Great Qi state must go overseas to guard the borders. They must either slay sea creatures or serve their full term before being rotated out. Cultivators and ordinary people below the Outer Court realm, however, can live within the beautiful imagination of calm seas and gentle waves.

"This fills me with respect," Jiang Wang said.

In that realm where the sky was night, the sea was devoid of light, and one could not distinguish northwest from southeast, the powerful figures above the Outer Court of Qi engaged in constant warfare.

This is the responsibility of a powerful nation, isn't it

This world constantly demonstrates its complexity and changeability.

On the one hand, a small country like Xu Guo harbors deep hatred for Qi Guo's plundering. On the other hand, it is perhaps precisely because Qi Guo guards the maritime domain that a small country like Xu Guo can survive.

At this moment, Jiang Wang remembered what Guan Yan had said, the sea sacrifice rituals held on the islands near the coast were to commemorate the fallen heroes.

If those people died fighting the sea creatures, they would truly deserve to be called "heroic spirits".

Thinking about this, Jiang Wang could also say: "Did those sects from the offshore islands also participate in the war with the Hai Clan"

This is a question left over from history.

Heavy Xuan recounted, "You know about the Nine Nations where the sun rises. There are very few left now. Their former selves were once the overlords who ruled the East Domain, known as the State of Yang, the Land Where the Sun Rises."

During the time when the country of Yang was at its peak, it eventually fell into decline and met a sudden ruin. During the chaotic period, the vast sea almost fell into enemy hands. The Sea Tribes launched a massive invasion, attacking coastal areas. Across the land, knowledgeable individuals spontaneously journeyed to the nearby islands to assist in their defense.

According to records, up to 2,300 monks could traverse the skies in a single day, rushing out to sea. The number of casualties is unknown. In the end, they successfully repelled the attack of the sea race.

The surviving cultivators, many of them chose to stay in the nearby islands. Over time, this led to the establishment of the various sects on the islands we see today. They are represented by their ancestors who continue to safeguard the sea domain.

Imagine that scene.

The overlord of the Eastern Region fell in an instant, and the sea frontier suddenly lost its barrier.

The sea clan surged through the barrier world and attacked the nearshore area, wanting to return to the mortal realm.

And countless cultivators came from all over the world, crossing the skies and rushing to the sea.

Every extraordinary cultivator must go through a long and arduous training process, overcoming countless obstacles, in order to climb higher peaks and ultimately transcend the mundane.

But at times of crisis on the sea frontier.

Extraordinary cultivators spontaneously came.

It's not one or two.

It is dozens, hundreds, or even thousands.

Up to 2,300 trips to the sea in one day!

If all cultivators in the world are like this, how can the sea tribes not be suppressed!

If one were to say that Zuo Guanglie allowed Jiang Wang to see extraordinary power, extraordinary courage, and extraordinary compassion.

Then, the historical account described by Chongxuan showed Jiang Wang a sense of extraordinary responsibility and an extraordinary burden.

"Was the Diuhailou also established at that time" Jiang Wang's voice was a little dry.

"No, the history of Fishing Sea Tower is older than that batch of sects. Long before cultivators went to sea, Fishing Sea Tower had been guarding the front line of the sea border. Even the holy land of Fishing Sea Tower, Heavenly Horizon Terrace, faces the Realm of Illusion!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

Zhonghuan Sheng sighed again, "Before you decided to return to Linzi, I told you that Zhú Bì Qióng couldn't be saved. At the time, I didn't understand the situation in the coastal islands, but after I learned about it... I could only say this!"

Sometimes, the most difficult thing to deal with is actually the greatness of the enemy!

If Diaohailou is the same as Haizongming, greedy, cruel, and cunning, he will stop at nothing to destroy Diaohailou's sea sacrifice and save Zhu Biqiong.

But precisely the Diu Hai Lou has a glorious history, and for so many years it still adheres to glory.

Then how can we deal with it
