Chapter 510.
"The beam of light you saw," Wang Feng said slowly, "was released by that peerless figure. With only human strength, he clashed with such a monstrous soul beast. Wielding a divine weapon, he seemed like a god descending to the mortal realm. With just a single strike, he grievously wounded the Deep Sea Demon Whale."
Hearing this, the three of them were once again shocked.
Was there truly such a powerful being in this world?
Even with both the Supreme Pontiff and the Grand Worshipper combined, they might only be able to contend with the Deep Sea Demon Whale. But that peerless figure had injured it with a single blow?
"This person exchanged more than ten moves with the Deep Sea Demon Whale," Wang Feng continued. "I couldn't tell who had the upper hand. But eventually, it seemed as if the battle became too boring for him, and he simply left. The Deep Sea Demon Whale gave chase. I followed from afar, and that's why I was delayed a few days."
Hu Liena hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then… what was the result?"
Wang Feng smirked faintly.
"The result? The Demon Whale got scared and fled."
"…!"
The three were completely stunned. Their hearts were filled with awe—and also a strange sense of relief. It wasn't just the Supreme Pontiff and the Grand Worshipper… somewhere in this world, there truly existed a terrifying soul master of unimaginable strength.
No wonder even their proud and mighty teacher couldn't help but speak of him with admiration.
Yan scratched the back of his head and asked curiously, "Teacher, did you get a look at what this peerless person looked like?"
Wang Feng paused and then said thoughtfully, "He was extremely handsome—his looks were probably no less than mine."
At this, Hu Liena couldn't help but gasp.
Wang Feng's appearance was already world-shaking. Even if he took off his mask just once, Hu Liena was certain that even the famously man-hating leader of the Purple Pearl Pirates would fall at his feet.
And now Wang Feng was saying that this mysterious powerhouse was just as handsome?
She couldn't help but glance at him. For someone as powerful as her teacher to so openly praise another's appearance and strength… it was rare, and strangely charming.
"All right, that's enough story for today," Wang Feng said with a wave of his hand. "Get ready. We're heading to Sea God Island."
The three nodded and left to prepare, their minds still racing from what they had just heard.
The next day.
The group set out toward Sea God Island.
But to their surprise, Tang San and his team had already departed—two days earlier.
Wang Feng didn't think much of it. After finalizing a few things with the members of the Purple Pearl Pirates, Ji Jixiang arranged for several pirate sailors to accompany them by ship toward the island.
"I already sent my master ahead," Ji Jixiang said with a serious expression as he stood on the deck. "They should be there by now… I just hope all of you arrive safely too."
"Master?" Hu Liena asked curiously, "Which one of the seven is your master?"
"Tang San," Jixiang replied proudly. "I never expected that he also knew medicine, and his skills are even better than mine. Even though my talent is poor, he still accepted me as his disciple. Even our captain, the leader of the Purple Pearl Pirates, was convinced by him!"
He spoke with admiration, clearly excited.
The three Soul Hall members exchanged subtle glances and rolled their eyes in unison.
Wang Feng, meanwhile, silently mused, "So this is also part of the original story…?"
Still, he found it surprising. Jixiang's talent was indeed weak—so why would Tang San accept him as a disciple?
Perhaps it was fate. Strange, inexplicable fate.
"We'll take you only to the outer waters of Sea God Island," Jixiang continued, gazing into the distance. "Beyond that, the Devil Great White Sharks patrol the seas. It's too dangerous for us to get closer."
He looked back at them seriously. "You must have heard of the sea beasts that protect the island. There are hundreds of them—one of whom is a 100,000-year soul beast. Very dangerous. Sea God Island doesn't welcome land-based soul masters… So you'll need to make your own decision whether to continue."
They had indeed been warned about this before. The old sailor on the Purple Pearl had said the same.
But Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were already mentally prepared. They nodded without hesitation.
Soon, with Jixiang leading the way, they approached the outskirts of Sea God Island in less than two days.
Jixiang waved goodbye to the four of them, as their relationship was purely professional. Still, the Purple Pearl Pirates had proven themselves trustworthy enough.
In the distance, thanks to Wang Feng's sharp eyesight, a small island could be seen clearly. However, it was much larger than Purple Pearl Island. At the speed of an average boat, it would take about two to three hours to reach it.
But Wang Feng didn't wait. Instead of using the boat provided by Jixiang, he summoned his Armored Black Flying Sword and soared toward Sea God Island with Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan riding along.
"The Devil Great White Sharks can't attack us from the sky," he thought. "There should be no problem."
Unfortunately, he was wrong.
Barely half an hour into the flight, the sea below rippled ominously—and countless dorsal fins began to rise from the water in a dense formation, an eerie and intimidating sight.
At the same time, Wang Feng felt an invisible pressure—not from the sea below, but from Sea God Island itself.
His expression changed slightly. A Domain?
Near Sea God Island, there seemed to be a special area with unique restrictions—very much like the Slaughter Domain around the Slaughter City or the spiritual suppression in the Rakshasa Secret Realm. Within such domains, even soul power could be completely sealed.
Wang Feng's heart sank. His spiritual energy was being disrupted. He realized he could no longer maintain altitude, so he slowly descended with the flying sword.
The moment he rose above ten meters in height, his spiritual perception became extremely blocked—his soul power as well. He suspected only someone at the level of Qian Daoliu might be able to resist this suppression.
Letting out a breath, Wang Feng released his Domain of Original –Sin, spreading it across a hundred-meter radius as a precaution. But that only served to hold off the weakest threats.
Ahead of them, the sea was now brimming with activity. The dorsal fins weren't random—they belonged to an enormous school of Devil Great White Sharks, all closing in with eerie synchronization.
"Teacher, look…" Hu Liena's voice was tense.
The three of them were now fully alert. Their eyes widened as they saw the terrifying number of sharks in the water—a sea full of them.
Many were at least ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, and at the very center swam a colossal Devil Great White Shark, easily twenty meters long, its entire body covered in gleaming white scales.
It fixed its massive, intelligent eyes directly on the four intruders.
The situation instantly turned perilous.
Surrounded by such a sheer number of Devil Great White Sharks—even a dozen of Titled Douluo would have no chance of escape.
Especially not with that one in the center—a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
Though this wasn't the first time they'd encountered such a creature, this shark exuded a pressure that surpassed even the Star Five-Headed Dragon and the Headless Beasts they had fought in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Wang Feng's Domain of Original Sin kept the weaker sharks at bay, but the more powerful ones—especially the ten-thousand-year-level beasts—were clearly agitated and inching forward.
"Teacher… what should we do?" Hu Liena asked, her voice trembling.
Sweat beaded on the foreheads of all three. Even though Old Shan and Jixiang had warned them about the sharks, seeing them in person was a completely different matter.
It felt like stepping into a room lined with spikes—then watching the walls slowly close in.
The vastness of the sea was more than just a landscape—it was an advantage, breeding beasts that had every edge. Out here, soul masters were completely out of their element.
The three Soul Hall elites now stood close behind Wang Feng, looking to him—their Lord—for hope, their anxious eyes silently pleading for a way out.
Wang Feng also looked around at the surrounding Devil Great White Sharks. Compared to the three behind him, he could sense their intentions more clearly.
These sharks weren't exuding killing intent—they didn't truly want to fight. Their presence was more about defending Sea God Island, not launching an attack.
Especially the 100,000-year-old Devil Great White Shark at the center. Though its gaze was cold and watchful, if it had really wanted to strike, it would have already ordered a coordinated assault. Instead, they were merely encircling them.
"Don't reveal your Martial Souls," Wang Feng said slowly.
His calm voice carried a weight that made the other three freeze. They had just been about to summon their martial soul, but quickly restrained their soul power and halted.
"To them," Wang Feng explained, "releasing your martial soul is no different than declaring war."
The three were stunned for a moment, realizing the gravity of the situation. They retracted their energy immediately.
Wang Feng then also retracted his Domain of Original Sin.
Without the protection of the domain, the cold pressure from the sharks intensified. The temperature around them dropped by several degrees. It felt as if the sea itself had turned icy.
The three looked at their teacher, not daring to speak. Fighting wasn't an option—they knew that. Even with all of Wang Feng's strength, taking on a 100,000-year-old Devil Great White Shark, surrounded by so many powerful companions, was not realistic.
Besides, these Devil Great White Sharks weren't like ordinary sea soul beasts, they were ancient beast with top tier bloodline like Titan Giant Ape. Even the thousand-year-old ones were likely on par with regular ten-thousand-year-level soul beasts.
Wang Feng took a deep breath, spreading his spiritual energy outward like a gentle ripple, letting his aura flow freely into the surroundings.
The aura radiating from him was incredibly pure, in perfect harmony with nature itself. Even soul beasts could feel its influence.
This wasn't new. In the past, even in the Extreme North, he had tamed several soul beasts without using violence. His aura alone had swayed them. That was before he had fully awakened the Dustless Glazed Body—now, his purity was on a whole other level.
Of course, if these soul beasts had been violent or bloodthirsty, it might've had the opposite effect. They could have been drawn to attack him.
But these Devil Great White Sharks were guardians, not mindless killers. As his aura washed over them, many of the sharks began to settle. Their restlessness calmed slightly, and the ferocity in their eyes faded.
Even the 100,000-year-old shark looked surprised and confused. It tilted its massive head slightly, staring at Wang Feng with something close to curiosity, as if wondering how this man could exude such a familiar, almost comforting presence.
But even so...
It wasn't enough.
That presence alone would not earn them passage.
The massive shark let out a low, guttural growl—and as it did, the surrounding sharks closed in tighter, pushing the group even closer to the surface of the water.
Wang Feng's flying sword was now barely hovering a few meters above the sea. Any sudden movement would give these sharks the chance to leap up and strike.
Wang Feng furrowed his brows. He knew clearly—if he attacked, it would provoke a devastating retaliation from every shark present.
Fighting was off the table.
As his mind raced, an idea flashed through him. His soul power surged into his palm, and with a faint shimmer, a water-blue flag appeared in his hand.
It was an ancient artifact. Wang Feng didn't know its exact name or origin. In various myths, it had different stories. But in his memory, it was referred to as the Zhenwu Flag—mentioned in Journey to the West—a powerful artifact known for its ability to dominate and control water.
The flag appeared blue, but it had a darker hue. The moiré pattern on it was deeper than the blue itself, resembling rippling waves on water.
As soul power slowly infused into it, the blue flag instantly burst into a dazzling light, enveloping the three of them.
In that moment, the turbulent waves around them abruptly calmed.
Wang Feng held the blue flag and gently waved it. Instantly, the waves surged up violently!
Although the effect wasn't as intense as the disturbance caused by the demonic whale, it was still remarkably powerful. Moreover, even in the darkness, Wang Feng could sense that he was able to control all the seawater within the area covered by the royal flag — including the soul beasts within it. They couldn't stir the ocean now controlled by the flag.
In an instant, waves dozens of meters high split into two massive rows, as if opening up a wide path!
The sea beneath them was directly hollowed out to a depth of several dozen meters. On both sides, hundreds of Devil Great White Sharks swam, as if completely cut off from one another.
Wang Feng controlled the Armored Black Flying Sword and dashed forward along the hollowed-out path toward Sea God Island.
The Devil Great White Sharks on both sides leaped from the waves to block their way, but Wang Feng was merely pushed back slightly by the churning waters.
The hundred-thousand-year-old Devil Great White Shark at the front looked at the blue banner in Wang Feng's hand in shock and did not make a move.
Hu Liena and the others on the flying sword were stunned. They hadn't expected the White Pontiff to possess such a power!
Wang Feng, however, didn't feel well. The amount of mental energy consumed by this blue flag was just as extreme as that of the Cloud Flag.
Cloud Flag could store soul beasts, even those over a hundred thousand years old. Similarly, while the Blue flag granted control over water, the mental strain it caused was equally immense.
This water manipulation wasn't just the physical movement of water—it also exerted a degree of influence and control over the soul beasts within it.
The seawater within its range was now under Wang Feng's control, which made this feat possible. Otherwise, the Devil Great White Sharks would have already leapt out.
Without being restrained by the current, they would've easily broken free.
Only the hundred-thousand-year-old Devil Great White Shark retained the ability to attack.
However, it didn't seem inclined to attack. Wang Feng wasn't worried. With his spatial ability, he could instantly descend dozens of meters below the surface, allowing him to control the Armored Black Flying Sword and easily dodge the Great White Shark's assault.
Before long, Wang Feng had passed through the area occupied by the Devil Great White Sharks.
All the sharks could do was watch him fly right past them, unable to act.
Hu Liena and the others were filled with excitement, curiosity, and amazement.
As they moved forward, they even began observing the different kinds of soul beasts swimming within the two towering waves.
The entire scene resembled Wang Feng's previous experience walking through an aquarium, marveling at the underwater world surrounding him.
However, the passage formed by the blue flag was far grander and more spacious.
