Chapter 162: The Ultimate Evil Technique Whale Devour Annihilation!
"BOOM!"
After their powerful clash, both Neptune and Leaf City were blown apart by the recoil, creating distance between them once more.
Neither paid attention to the quaking mountains beneath them, their focus locked solely on each other.
"The divine techniques inherited from the Sea God are indeed formidable," Leaf City spoke first, then shifted his tone slightly. "However, I have also developed a few sword techniques of my own over the years. Brother Ni, allow me to demonstrate them."
"Please."
Neptune, gripping the Sea God's Trident, responded with just a single word.
"I call these techniques the Flying Rainbow Seven Styles!"
Leaf City's expression became incomparably calm as he grasped his sword.
"First Style Blazing Inferno!"
The moment he spoke, his Flying Rainbow Sword erupted with a fiery red glow, like red hot iron fresh from the forge. The scorching heat radiating from it instantly ignited the air around him, flames engulfing the sky!
The once dark storm clouds above were suddenly replaced by a sea of fire.
"Zzzzz!!"
Vast amounts of floodwater began to evaporate…
With a single slash of his sword, flames surged through the air. The scorching sword aura transformed into a majestic fire phoenix, its wings spread wide as it soared through the sky, bringing with it an all consuming divine fire.
Neptune didn't dare take it lightly. He lifted the Sea God's Trident, and in an instant, the surrounding rainwater rapidly gathered, forming into a massive deep blue whale.
A water whale against a fire phoenix!
Deep blue and fiery red, two completely opposing forces clashed.
"BOOOOOM!!!"
The collision of water and fire reached an extreme.
Flames evaporated the water, while water extinguished the flames.
Unfortunately for the surrounding spectators, they suffered the worst of it. The vast amounts of steam generated by the clash spread across the battlefield, carrying an intense, suffocating heat. It felt like they were being thrown into a massive sauna.
Thankfully, they were all soul masters. By using their soul power to form protective barriers, they barely managed to keep the searing heat at bay, though even then, they were struggling to endure it.
Minutes passed, feeling like an eternity.
The water whale and fire phoenix ultimately neutralized each other, both vanishing into nothing, leaving only thick steam blanketing the battlefield.
Hidden in the shadows, Sword Douluo couldn't hide his astonishment. "A self created soul skill… And he can control fire elements with his sword?"
In this world, sword type martial souls typically only enhanced sharpness and cutting ability. At most, they could release sword auras or create multiple sword projections. But manipulating elemental forces with swordsmanship? That was something even he couldn't achieve.
"And that day, when he fought me, he really was holding back!" Sword Douluo admitted to himself. If Leaf City had used this move during their fight, he would have had no way to block it.
On the battlefield, Leaf City remained unfazed as his Blazing Inferno clashed evenly with Neptune's water whale. Without hesitation, he transitioned into his second move Aqua Breaker!
The Flying Rainbow Sword's glow instantly shifted from fiery red to a deep azure blue, signifying the power of water.
At that moment, all the moisture in the air, once scattered, now gathered at his command. As he swung his sword, the airborne water condensed, forming crescent shaped water blades!
"Using water against me?"
Neptune found it amusing. After all, his martial soul was inherently tied to water. His understanding and control over it far surpassed that of ordinary soul masters.
But then
The crescent shaped water blades moved!
They sliced through the air, creating tremors in space itself.
Neptune didn't dodge. Instead, he met them head on with the Sea God's Trident.
"BOOM!"
The first water blade struck his trident, creating a powerful shockwave that echoed far into the distance.
"He can condense water to this level? And control it so precisely?" Neptune was visibly surprised.
However, his movements didn't slow. His trident spun like a blur, deflecting each incoming water blade.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! …"
Each time he parried a water blade, the Sea God's Trident let out a powerful resonance.
The watching soul masters were dumbfounded. It was clear now those seemingly ordinary water blades contained an immense amount of power.
And then, one of the deflected blades veered off course and struck a distant mountain peak.
"BOOOOM!!!"
A massive portion of the mountain was sliced cleanly away, as if cut by an invisible divine blade.
The crowd gasped in awe.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
More and more water blades stormed toward Neptune from all directions. His trident danced through the air, forming an impenetrable defense.
Finally, as if growing impatient, Neptune's body burst forth with intense golden light, momentarily repelling the water blades. Then, gripping the Sea God's Trident tightly, he let out a deep roar
"Ultimate Evil Technique Whale Devour Annihilation!"
The battlefield trembled.
The once calm waters suddenly began to boil.
At the very center of the battlefield, a massive, gaping maw emerged from the water. A colossal figure slowly rose or rather, took form from the liquid depths.
This time, the whale Neptune summoned was unimaginably massive. It absorbed nearly all the water around it, solidifying into a singular, overwhelming entity.
A whale spanning over ten thousand meters soared into the sky, shimmering with cascading waves.
The sight was breathtaking, carrying an indescribable oceanic beauty.
But the spectators were not in awe.
They were terrified.
Because they remembered just moments ago, a mere few hundred meter long whale had almost wiped them out.
And now, this ten thousand meter long behemoth…
If it came crashing down who could survive?!
"HOLY SHIT!!"
"IS HE TRYING TO KILL US?!"
"RUN!! RUN!!"
"WHY DID I EVEN COME HERE?!"
"We're doomed!"
"We're all gonna die!"
"NO ONE CAN SAVE US NOW!"
Lower ranked soul masters were paralyzed with fear, unable to move as they stared at the descending colossus.
Even high level Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo were barely able to suppress their terror, frantically erecting defensive barriers. Despite their strength, they could feel the overwhelming pressure of that descending whale.
For the first time in years, they felt weak like mere mortals standing before an unstoppable force of nature.
Just like when they had been powerless children, gazing up at titanic, insurmountable threats.
"This is bad!"
Leaf City's expression darkened as he watched the massive whale plummet from ten thousand meters above.
If that thing hit the ground…
Everything within a thousand miles would be obliterated.
The surrounding mountains reduced to rubble.
The thousands of soul masters present? All dead.
Water's destructive force was not to be underestimated.
And when that much water fell from such a height
The resulting impact would be catastrophic.
