“This… this is....” as he looked up at the intertwining large flood dragon cauldron, Leader Lin Kang was stunned! 

Only a high class dominator rank wood type creature could possess this type of ability, and it wasn’t a normal high class dominator rank!

Lin Kang looked over and among the countless plant soul pets found the powerful figure.

Astonishingly, it was a Devil Tree Battle Soldier with a species rank of warrior rank! 

Pirate Leader Lin Kang rubbed his eyes, doubting his own vision. He was certain that warrior rank creatures couldn’t cross into the dominator rank, let alone the high class dominator rank. 

Behind Lin Kang, 15 dominator rank pirate chieftains had faces full of shock. They had never seen such a strong Devil Tree Battle Soldier. With its own power, it had managed to stop a group of horned beast dominators!

Although it was only a single Devil Tree Battle Soldier, it was like an uncrossable mountain. Its imposing majesty dissuaded the dominator, emperor and monarch horned beasts from stepping forwards. 

“Annihilate them!” Sang Ying recovered from his shock, and hastily glanced at the elemental team behind him, giving them an order.

New Moon Navy’s elemental team comprised 500 people. The average strength of this team was the middle class emperor rank, which was even more powerful than 3rd Ship Legion’s elemental team! 

A colorful and gorgeous array of incantations flickered in the elemental team. Incantations filled with destructive power quickly congealed and countless elements clashed together… 

The halo of techniques rose into the air and they were dazzling like an exploding sun! 

Every technique from the middle class emperors easily covered two to three kilometers. Presently, the majority of the 3000 horned beasts were within this two to three kilometer range in front of the New Moon Navy. 

The halos illuminated the entire enormous gulf. 

Balls of large flames scorchingly dropped from the sky and burned the fiery ocean into a hell.

Ice and wind merged together, reaping the lives of those weak horned beasts. 

Lightning and rock terrifyingly smashed down, leaving holes in the ground where the smashed corpses of the horned beasts lay. 

Hong hong hong hong hong” 

Trembling sounds filled the island, and over ten thousand pirates were stunned by the instantaneous destructive force of New Moon Land. 

From the highlands to the jungle, they were able to see 3000 charging horned beasts annihilated until almost none remained. A mangle of bloody and broken armor and mutilated corpses littered the ground. Mixed in were broken limbs, heads and innards… 

These pirates had seen a bloody spectacle like this before, but now that it was happening to them, they were slightly frightened. 

The egotistical smiles of the chieftain pirates standing on the highlands froze. No one could laugh after watching the 3000 horned beasts on their side nearly annihilated. 

Big Leader Zhuo Qing’s expression turned ashen. His initial battle plan was to have the sturdy horned beasts charge at the New Moon Navy formation and after breaking through, New Moon Navy would be unable to muster up any defensive force. Then, the horned beasts could leave and the pirate elemental team could begin their bombardment! 

The pirate’s elemental team had 4000, and if they released techniques all at once, almost none of the 2000 New Moon Navy members would be left alive. After that, his other brothers could go and clean up the mess, turning the living members into corpses and delivering the killing blow to those half-dead. Then, they would be able to delightfully take the 30 dominator navy boats and the resources on them.  

However, reality did not play out as expected. Firstly, their 3000 horned armored beasts spent a huge amount of effort to charge at the opposing 500 plant creature fortress and was left trapped alive in the plant forest. Right after that, they were bombarded by a retaliation wave, barely leaving any of them alive. The deaths were incomparably miserable! 

“How… how did the New Moon Navy… suddenly become so incredible.” said Chang Fei with a bit of disappointment. 

The 3000 horned armored beasts was the greatest weapon the pirates used to attack cities. Without the horned armored beasts, it would be impossible for them to plunder a city. 

“Stupid woman! Can you still not see? They were faking it! The plant fortress being able to block our 3000 horned beasts means their plant team is all at the emperor rank. Even scarier is the elemental team which has an average strength of the middle class emperor rank. The bombardment from 500 middle class emperor elemental soul pets… How are our pseudo dominator and peak monarch horned beasts supposed to survive?!” angrily yelled Pirate Old Zhong. 

Old Zhong’s yell abruptly awakened all of the chieftains. 

The New Moon Navy was no group of pushovers. Instead, their fighting power was comparable to the navy!! 

If Old Zhong could see it, as a formed high ranking navy official, Zhuo Qing could also see it. 

The blood vessels in his face were bulging because he never expected that New Moon Land’s navy were trying to trap his Dark Ocean Pirates!!

“Elemental team, bombard them!” Big Leader Zhuo Qing angrily roared at the elemental team behind them! 

“Big… big leader, there are still a few of our brothers there.” hastily warned Old Zhong. 

Not all of the 3000 horned beasts had died. There were a few lucky survivors, especially among the dominator rank horned beasts. They carried heavy wounds and were escaping.

“What use is there in leaving those pieces of trash alive!” Big Leader Zhuo Qing sneered. He had no pity on the remaining pirates. 

The moment the order was given, the 4000 elemental members began to chant in hiding. 

The average strength of the 4000 elemental team was the pseudo emperor rank and the elemental destructive windstorm they could create would be able to deal a serious blow to New Moon Navy.   

A gorgeous set of colors flashed through the sky and earth. All of these lights were like impending and bloody death to the remaining horned armored beast and New Moon Navy members. 

However, just as they were chanting, dark-star like demon eyes suddenly flickered in the highland’s jungle. 

In the shadow of the jungle, phantoms were lightly moving forwards. They were currently in a stealth state and even in the ardent sunlight, it was only possible to see faint outlines moving by. 

These figures were moving extremely fast. Even though they were still a ways away from the highland, they would be able to catch up to them before the elemental soul pets finished chanting! 

To demons, an elemental soul pet was the easiest to assassinate when it was chanting an incantation! 

The experienced Hero Chief Yuan Sui didn’t move at all for a very long time until now. He continued chanting in the jungle until he heard Zhuo Qing’s roar. He knew then that his opportunity to attack had arrived! 

500 emperor demons. When all of the pirates had their attention on the beach of the gulf, they snuck around to behind when the pirate formation was without defense! 

The 4000 elemental soul pets were concentrating on chanting. Even if they detected the cold intent behind them, they wouldn’t be able to react in time! 

Finally, the demons neared. 

If a demon were to charge into a defenseless group of elementals, it would be like a wolf throwing itself into a group of sheep. This time, it wasn’t only 1 demon, but 500 demons with ranks higher than the elementals! 

“Interrupt their incantations!” Yuan Sui sensed that the majority of the pirates’ elemental soul pets were about to finish their incantations and ordered the covert team. 

The demons’ mental abilities were ranged, and heavily relied on a rank advantage. Indeed, higher ranked demons would be able to use their abilities more effective on lower ranked enemies. 

The eyes of the 500 demons flashed and a mental force full of malice that accompanied the demonic light swept over the 4000 elemental soul pets like a tide. 

“Weng weng” 

The minds of the 4000 elementals were instantly thrown into chaos. At least 90% of their incantations were interrupted. 

The halos from the techniques immediately dimmed and the 4000 elemental soul pets let out sharp cries and pained expressions! 

The elemental pirates also suffered from the demon mental reverb. It was a long while before they recovered. By the time they protected their soul remembrances, they discovered that numerous grim reaper-like demons had suddenly appeared among their elemental team. 

“Kill!”, Yuan Sui spat out a single word. 

His old subordinate, Ma Li, led the way and flitted through the middle of the elemental team. 

Regardless if it were red colored fire type creatures, brown colored rock type creatures, purple colored lightning type creatures or chaos wind type creatures, all sorts of creatures collapsed to the ground along its straight line.

Elemental soul pets didn’t have any blood, but rock types would shatter, ice types would be reduced to dregs of ice and fire types would be left as ruined buds of flame. This was a more unpleasant scene to the pirates than one filled with blood because while elemental soul pets were mainstream, they were much more valuable than demon world creatures!! 

A multitude of different colored corpses littered the ground. The demons Yuan Sui lead had become a genuine harvester of lives. Rows upon rows of elemental soul pets collapsed. The speed at which they were eliminated was extremely fast. How could these pirates have ever imagined their soul pets would be insta killed one after the other so miserably? 

“What happened? Why aren’t they attacking?!” Zhuo Qing’s face was going green from anger. 

He gave these criminals food and room to play. But when it mattered, their incantations were being released so slowly. If it weren’t for New Moon Navy being completely surrounded, they would have all run away by now. 

“Big leader, our elemental team was sneak attacked!” Old Zhong yelled out with a pale face. 

Zhuo Qing was stunned and abruptly turned around. He finally discovered on the highlands that the elemental soul pets had been turned into corpses in a short period of time. 

Zhuo Qing’s face instantly turned scarlet red. He was like a volcano that was about to erupt. 

These New Moon Navy members had come prepared!!
