Seeing such an obedient "little kitty," Ning Rongrong's impish nature instantly surged.
This was the legendary Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger!
How cool would riding it be?
Lin Yuan smiled and nodded. "Of course; it's very obedient now."
Honestly, once the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger reined in the malevolent aura around it, it looked quite handsome.
"Naturally."
"Yay!"
With Lin Yuan's approval, Ning Rongrong didn't stand on ceremony; she leapt and landed lightly on the tiger's broad back.
"Little Black, take off! Give this lady a spin!"
As she spoke, she produced a fragrant, gelatinous lump from her spirit tool as if by magic.
"Here, eat up!"
With a casual toss, that top-grade whale glue—ten-thousand-year quality—arced through the air.
Little Black, reluctant a moment ago, went wide-eyed the instant it caught the scent.
This was the cream of the crop!
Without hesitation it gulped the whale glue down.
"Crunch, crunch."
After a few chews it purred contentedly.
Toward this generous "mistress" it no longer felt the least resistance.
Whoever feeds me is mom!
"Whoosh—"
With a beat of its wings Little Black shot skyward, circling joyfully above the academy while Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu and the others watched in envy.
Lin Yuan observed with a smile.
These premium whale-glue pieces were among the rewards the system had fed back to him.
As his disciples kept dominating the heavenly screen rankings, the cultivation feedback he received had reached a terrifying level.
The eighth spirit ring of his xuanyuan sword had auto-evolved into a million-year divine ring!
The ninth spirit ring of his Immortal Wheel Eye was likewise a million-year one!
And as for the tenth divine ring of his Spirit—needless to say, it was well beyond a million years.
"This kind of life… isn't bad at all."
Lin Yuan settled back into his deck-chair, savoring the rare leisure… yet—
—in stark contrast to the laughter echoing across Canglan Academy—
the distant western sea now presented an apocalyptic sight!
"Rumble—!!!"
The once-azure ocean had turned ink-black.
Howling winds, thunder like crashing hammers!
A suffocating god-tier pressure, driving titanic waves, surged toward Sea God Island at appalling speed!
That was the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
No—now he should be called the Demon Whale God!
Clad in four-word battle armor, wielding the deep sea thunder god halberd, he strode the waves like a demon of ruin!
Behind him stretched a limitless host of Sea Spirit Beasts!
Most conspicuous among them was the colossal, ferocious Evil Spirit Orca King!
Under the boost of the Demon Whale God Domain the army moved at lightning speed; wherever it passed the sea boiled and life perished!
…Sea God Island, before the Sea God Temple.
Bo Saixi, eyes closed in an attempt to contact Sea God, snapped them open!
In that instant her face turned grim.
"This aura…"
"It's here!"
Bo Saixi slammed the vast sea scepter against the ground, her voice reaching every corner of the Seven Sacred Pillars.
"Enemy assault!!!"
"All Sacred Pillar guardians heed the call! All Sea Spirit Masters heed the call!"
"Activate the island-protecting grand array!"
"The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is charging with a beast tide!"
"What?!"
Sea Dragon Douluo, Sea Spear Douluo and the others blanched, bursting from their pillars.
They had known this day would come—just not so soon!
"Boom!!"
The instant they assembled.
A violet-black apocalyptic thunderbolt slammed into Sea God Island's protective shield!
"Crack!"
The blue barrier that had guarded the island for ages cracked like glass under that divine strike!
"Hahaha!"
"Bo Saixi! Crawl out here!"
A wild roar shook the heavens.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King hovered in the air, gazing down at the whole island, eyes full of mockery and murder.
"Today I shall drench Sea God Island in blood!"
"I'll use your crimson to consecrate my path to godhood!"
"Insolence!"
A cold shout rang out.
Bo Saixi rose in her four-word battle armor, scepter in hand, confronting the Deep Sea Demon Whale King from afar.
Though tiny by comparison, her death-defying aura matched his!
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, you've become a god—why still slaughter so?!"
"Slaughter?"
The Demon Whale God sneered, eyes venomous.
"That old geezer Sea God blinded one of my eyes and stole the ocean's faith!"
"I've remembered that debt to this day!"
"First I wipe out his legacy, then I settle accounts with him!"
"Attack!"
He swept the halberd downward.
"Roar!!"
Below, the Evil Spirit Orca King bellowed and led tens of thousands of orcas and Sea Spirit Beasts in a black torrent toward the island's shore!
"To arms!"
Sea Dragon Douluo howled, eyes blood-red.
"For the glory of Lord Sea God!"
"Kill!"
Battle erupted instantly!
Sea Dragon Douluo clashed with the Evil Spirit Orca King.
Though he was now level 98 and possessed Dual Soul Cores plus the True Dragon Vast Sea Domain,
the Evil Spirit Orca King had also been strengthened by the heavenly screen—two hundred thousand years of cultivation, plus suppression from the Demon Whale God Domain.
From their very first exchange the sky shattered and the sea surged in reverse!
The other six Sacred Pillars, together with Devil Spirit Great White Shark Xiao Bai and a host of Sea Spirit Masters, were barely holding back the endless tide of sea beasts.
"Damn it! Why are there so many?!"
While tearing into a ten-thousand-year orca, Xiao Bai howled in agony.
"This suppression is too strong! I can't even open my Domain!"
Under the oppressive might of a god-level Domain, even with Bo Saixi's Sea God Domain to counterbalance, she was still not a true god—there was bound to be a gap.
The forces of Sea God Island were significantly weakened.
Blood instantly stained the jade-green waves red.
The shore of Sea God Island was piled with corpses… High above in the sky, the true pinnacle duel had begun!
The true pinnacle duel had begun!
"Sea God Descent!"
Bo Saixi held nothing back; from the start she burned her very source, drawing upon the faith power accumulated in the Sea God Temple for years.
Golden light soared ten thousand feet!
Her aura skyrocketed, forcibly elevating her to god level!
"Vast Sea Divine Tide—Absolute Defense!"
Her four-word battle armor blazed with light, transforming into an unbreakable curtain of water.
"Hmph, a petty trick!"
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King sneered, lightning coiling around his deep sea thunder god halberd.
"Playing with water in front of me? Showing off before an expert!"
"Divine Skill—Demon Whale: Heaven-Devouring Earth!"
"Boom!"
The colossal demon-whale phantom behind him opened its maw; a terrifying suction erupted, tearing and swallowing the watery shield Bo Saixi had formed.
"Ugh!"
Bo Saixi suffered the backlash and spewed a mouthful of blood.
"So this is the power of a god?"
Her heart shook with dread.
Even with every means exhausted and the Sea God's power borrowed, before a true godly body and divine weapon she still seemed so fragile.
"Die!"
Giving her no respite, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King hurled his halberd as a violet bolt of lightning aimed straight at Bo Saixi's heart.
No way to dodge!
"vast sea scepter—Block!"
With all her strength Bo Saixi raised the semi-divine weapon across her chest.
"Clang!!"
A deafening boom rang out.
Bo Saixi was blasted away like a cannonball, crashing deep into the rock of Sea God Mountain!
The entire mountain shook violently, as if it might collapse at any moment.
"High Priestess!"
Seeing this, Sea Dragon and the others below were beside themselves with rage.
Defeated!
Even the High Priestess had been defeated!
"Cough, cough…"
From the rubble, Bo Saixi crawled out with difficulty.
Her battle armor was cracked all over, blood trickling from her mouth; her aura was at its lowest ebb.
Yet her eyes remained resolute.
Gazing at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King hovering like a death god, she drew a deep breath.
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King…"
Her voice was weak but carried absolute determination.
"You've won."
"But…"
Slowly she raised the vast sea scepter; the gem at its tip began emitting a terrifying, destructive pulse.
"Take one more step and I'll detonate all the faith power of Sea God Island!"
"And the core of this divine weapon!"
She stared fixedly at her foe.
"Sea God may be absent, but his divine will remains!"
"If Sea God Island is destroyed, that divine will shall descend!"
"At that time…"
Bo Saixi gave a cold laugh.
"A newly ascended god facing the wrath of a first-rank Divinity—do you think you'd survive?"
"Besides…"
Light flashed and her body turned ethereal, as though she might melt into the sea at any instant.
"Though I can't beat you, if I choose to flee you can't stop me!"
"As long as I live, I'll find ways to reach the God Realm and make your life endless misery!"
"Leave—now!"
"From now on we keep to our own waters; this is my final bottom line!"
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's advance halted.
Meeting Bo Saixi's crazed gaze and her stance ready to self-destruct, his killing intent flickered uncertainly.
He was arrogant, not foolish.
The old Sea God was indeed the shadow in his heart.
If he truly provoked the Sea God's descent, this freshly minted god might not endure.
Worse, in moments numerous Sea Spirit Beasts faithful to the Sea God had joined the fray.
He cursed inwardly: Damn, all lackeys left by that old Sea God!
And if Bo Saixi really escaped and harassed him from the shadows, it would be endless trouble.
"Fine! Very well!"
After a tense silence he finally lowered the thunder god halberd and said coldly,
"Bo Saixi, you're ruthless."
"Today, I'll spare the lot of you."
"However…"
He pointed at the blood-reddened waters below.
"This debt is far from settled."
"Wait and see—one day I'll personally tear down this pathetic island!"
With that, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King swept his arm.
"Withdraw!"
Reluctant but knowing today could go no further, he turned away.
As the tide of sea beasts receded, only the devastated Sea God Island and the corpses littering the ground remained.
Watching the departing demon shadow, Bo Saixi's body gave out and she collapsed into the ruins.
This time, relying on the heritage the Sea God had left behind, they had barely survived.
But what of next time?
