Chapter 1: Me! The Deep Sea Demon Whale King!?
The blazing sun shone brightly over the vast and boundless sea.
A massive whale floated on the surface of the ocean. Its enormous body stretched 200 meters long, with a sapphire-like color covering its entire body. The whale had two huge eyes on its head, each with a diameter of over three meters.
However, one of its eyes was blind.
Its size and appearance looked quite terrifying.
It sat there quietly, and any sea soul beast in the ocean would immediately be frightened by its presence.
Soon, the giant whale slowly opened its eyes. After seeing what was in front of it, it was so startled that it shuddered: "Holy crap!"
"Wasn't I napping at home? How did I end up in the sea?"
"What's going on?"
"Wait…"
Ye Wen felt a bit panicked. He quickly realized something strange – he was clearly speaking human language, but what came out was the sound of a whale!
"My voice… and my body!"
Ye Wen, completely confused, became even more bewildered.
It was then that he realized his body had become very strange. Although he could still control it freely, something felt different.
He quickly moved his eyes downward to look at his lower body.
Holy crap!
No way!?
A fish! He saw the tail of a whale!
It was attached to his body!
"I've turned into a… fish?!"
Ye Wen couldn't help but scream. The situation was so sudden that he couldn't accept it. He had gone to sleep as a young man, full of vigor, and woke up as a whale?
"Did I transmigrate?"
"I never thought something as ridiculous as this would happen to me."
As a long-time web novel reader, Ye Wen quickly realized that he must have transmigrated.
He could accept the idea of transmigrating.
But why did he have to be a fish? Why not be human?
After taking a moment to calm himself, Ye Wen gradually relaxed: "Well, whatever. A whale it is."
"But what kind of world is this?"
"I can clearly feel there's some terrifying power hidden inside me, and I can also feel the special energy in this world."
"This world can't be a normal one, right?"
"I… seems like I'm not just an ordinary whale."
After coming to terms with the situation, Ye Wen began to ponder it. He also started to sense his surroundings.
He hadn't realized yet that he had become a soul beast on the Douluo Continent, one whose cultivation was almost a million years old — currently the most powerful and intimidating soul beast.
But at that moment, the original memories of the giant whale began flooding into Ye Wen's mind.
"Ugh!~~~~~"
"Pain!"
Ye Wen's head felt like it was about to explode from the intense pain.
After a moment, the pain subsided, but his mood became more intense.
"Good heavens…"
"I'm the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!?"
"This is actually the Douluo Continent world!!"
As a long-time web novel reader, Ye Wen was well aware of the Douluo Continent.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was the ruler of the ocean!
Its cultivation reached 999,999 years, a sea soul beast!
Its physical strength was almost that of a divine body, 99% of the time!
Its strength reached demigod level, only a step away from becoming a god!
It was definitely a top-tier powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of strength, terrifyingly powerful!
And he had actually become the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
"Damn."
"Goddammit! The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is powerful, but this creature seems like it won't live for much longer."
At the start, his power was the peak of the continent, but Ye Wen didn't feel happy. Instead, he was a bit speechless.
Because the Deep Sea Demon Whale King would eventually die at the hands of the double-standard dog Tang San.
Tang San had to kill it during the eighth trial of the Sea God's Nine Trials.
This meant he would eventually be killed by Tang San, then his soul ring and bones would be absorbed by him.
"No way, just wait for Tang San to come hunt me down? How could I accept that! I must do something." Ye Wen refused to accept such a fate.
He wasn't sure what the current timeline was, how old Tang San was, or when he would come, but there were no memories of Tang San, Xiao Wu, or Dai Mubai in the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's mind right now.
This suggested that the timeline was at least before Tang San's first visit to Sea God Island.
"As long as Tang San hasn't come to Sea God Island yet, it's easy to handle. I just need to influence his life trajectory or make him a waste or even kill him directly."
"With my power as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, it's not difficult to kill an undeveloped weakling like him, even if Tang Hao is behind him. Can Tang Hao beat me?"
"No, no!" Ye Wen suddenly realized that this plan might not work.
"If I remember correctly, after a soul beast reaches 100,000 years of cultivation, it can choose to transform into a human or continue cultivating as a beast. But once the opportunity to transform is missed, it's hard to become human again."
"Without transformation, how can a sea soul beast enter the human world! Even if I transform, I would be starting over..."
"Although fish-type sea soul beasts can briefly transform into human form after reaching 100,000 years of cultivation and go on land, they can only remain in human form for two hours at most, and their power will be reduced to 30% when out of the water."
"Two hours? I wouldn't even be able to reach shore and find Tang San before I die!"
"This is so troublesome! It looks like I'll have to wait for Tang San to come to Sea God Island. But when he comes, this damn guy will have already gotten the Heart of the Ocean and destroyed the Slaughter City, gaining the Killing God Domain!"
"By then, Tang San will already be under the protection of both Sea God and Asura God. It'll be very hard to touch him then."
Ye Wen was getting frustrated. In his memories, gods couldn't interfere with the affairs of mortals, but Sea God and Asura God had repeatedly broken the rules of the divine realm, intervening in the mortal world to help Tang San.
Whenever Tang San was about to be killed, Sea God and Asura God would show up to help.
If Ye Wen waited until Tang San came to Sea God Island to act, it would probably be interfered with by Sea God and various Asura Gods, making it hard to succeed!
He might only have to watch as Tang San developed on Sea God Island, eventually killing him during the eighth trial, becoming the final stepping stone before someone else became a god.
"No! I must change this fate!"
Ye Wen growled in frustration.
At that moment, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.
[The Fate Duel has begun. Would you like to accept?]
[Yes] [No]
"Fate duel? What does that mean..." Ye Wen froze.
[This is your fate duel with Tang San. The rules are: you cannot kill Tang San, nor can you make him a waste unable to cultivate. You can use any means to influence and interfere with Tang San's growth, but you must make sure Tang San participates in the Sea God's Nine Trials and reach the eighth trial.]
[When Tang San begins the Sea God's eighth trial, the fate duel will officially start. You cannot escape. You must kill Tang San during the Sea God's eighth trial. Success: obtain the God's inheritance. Failure: death.]
