Chapter 60 Attacking Seagod Island.
The golden light of the fourth-ranked Soul Beast on the sky had not yet dissipated when the words "million years" and "god-level combat power" struck the hearts of every force on the Douluo Continent like a heavy hammer.
The bonus of 200,000 years of cultivation instantly elevated the intimidating power of this deep-sea overlord to new heights. The reactions of the various forces were drastically different, and the balance of power between the deep sea and the mainland was in turmoil.
Deep in the ocean, at the bottom of a dark trench, a giant whale, its size comparable to a mountain, lay dormant.
Its entire body was covered in thick, dark blue scales, gleaming with a cold, hard luster in the dim light of the deep sea. A hideous scar on its left eye socket was particularly striking.
That was the mark left from its battle with the Seagod.
When the golden light of the Soul Beast Ranking pierced through tens of thousands of meters of seawater and enveloped it, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's dormant eyes suddenly opened, and a terrifying pressure erupted from its dark blue pupils.
A surge of immense energy flowed into its body along with the golden light, causing its already million-year cultivation level to skyrocket. The surrounding seawater was churned by this power, forming massive whirlpools.
Countless deep-sea fish and shrimp fled in panic, while sea spirit beasts further afield dived into the deepest parts of the ocean, barely daring to breathe.
It felt the ever-increasing power within its body, a formidable fighting force capable of crushing its past self. Its damaged soul was also rapidly repaired under the nourishment of this energy.
"Sea God..."
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King let out a deep whale cry, its voice carrying for thousands of miles through the deep sea, filled with bone-deep hatred and resentment. "Back then, you destroyed one of my eyes. Now, I have gained another two hundred thousand years of cultivation. This position of Sea God should change hands!"
It violently swung its tail fin, its massive body churning the seawater and creating towering waves. Even the surface of the sea was surfacing with walls of water thousands of meters high, as if announcing its return to the entire continent.
The hatred accumulated from the successive deaths of his clansmen intertwined with the surging power, making the killing intent of this deep-sea overlord even more intense.
On the shores of the Life Lake in the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian, having just stabilized the aura of the million-year-old Black Dragon King, felt the terrifying pressure emanating from the deep sea, and his golden eyes narrowed slightly.
Gu Yuena's fingertips abruptly stopped ripples, a hint of wariness flashing in her cold eyes. "The Deep Sea Demon Whale King… its divine-level combat power has gained another two hundred thousand years of cultivation; this deep sea is no longer peaceful," she said softly.
Di Tian echoed in a deep voice, "This beast has a deep grudge against the Sea God, and now that its strength has surged, it probably won't be content to remain dormant in the deep sea. If it lands, it will be another catastrophe for the continent."
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, "Let's deal with the Evil Emperor first. As for the deep sea, let's observe for now. This beast has a grudge against the Sea God; perhaps it can become our ally."
Outside the Ice Palace in the far north, the Snow Emperor gazed towards the deep sea, the chill around her growing even more biting.
"Another million-year-old soul beast with god-level combat power," she said softly, her tone tinged with solemnity.
The Ice Emperor's heart, already tense because of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, sank even further: "The Deep Sea Demon Whale King has always hated humans. If it makes a move, human forces will likely suffer first, but it might also affect us."
The Snow Emperor shook her head: "Its enemy is the Sea God, and in the short term, it will most likely target human forces related to the ocean. Our priority right now remains preparing to rescue Heavenly Dream."
With that, she turned and ordered the Northern Soul Beasts to accelerate their cultivation.
Inside the Papal Palace in Spirit City, Bibi Dong had just picked up her fallen scepter when she felt the oppressive force emanating from the deep sea. The last glimmer of hope in her crimson eyes was completely extinguished.
"First Di Tian, then the Deep Sea Demon Whale King… god-level soul beasts appear one after another. Where do so many terrifying beings come from on the continent?"
Her voice was tinged with hysteria. Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo stood pale-faced to the side, not daring to even breathe. Bibi Dong gripped the scepter tightly, her nails digging into her palm.
In the Hall of Offerings, Qian Daoliu gazed towards the deep sea, sighed deeply, and his aged face was filled with helplessness.
"With two hundred thousand years of cultivation, the power of this Deep Sea Demon Whale King is probably even stronger than mine at my peak."
An elder trembled as he spoke, "Brother, we..."
Qian Daoliu slowly closed his eyes.
"Guard the Angel Shrine and wait for Xue'er to become a god. We have no other choice now."
In Shrek Academy, Grandmaster slumped on a stone bench, muttering to himself.
"A million years, another million years, and another two hundred thousand years of cultivation... god-level combat power..."
Tang San frowned, his hand unconsciously tightening around the hidden weapon at his waist.
He could clearly feel the destructive power of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and a strong sense of urgency welled up in his heart.
"Teacher, it seems we must speed up our cultivation even more." Tang San said in a deep voice.
Grandmaster opened his eyes, looked at Tang San, and a glimmer of light rekindled in his eyes: "That's right, only by growing up quickly can we be able to deal with these terrifying beings."
In the pavilion of Tianxing Academy, a hint of excitement flashed in Li Tian's eyes. He raised his hand to refill Shui Bing'er's cup of tea.
"Bing'er, do you see? This is the true chaos of the continent. The appearance of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has made the situation more complicated, but it also means more opportunities."
Shui Bing'er's eyes were firm: "Teacher, I understand. The more chaotic it is, the more we must focus on cultivation. Only by becoming strong can we control our own destiny."
Li Tianyi nodded in satisfaction, his gaze fixed on the deep sea, a hopeful smile playing on his lips.
In the Demon Forest, the Evil Emperor sensed the power fluctuations of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, but instead of being afraid, he became even more frenzied.
"Another god-level being? Perfect!" Its giant eyeballs rolled, its purplish-black pupils surging with killing intent.
"After I deal with Di Tian, I will go to the deep sea to take your life. After absorbing your power, I will be the true ruler of the continent!"
The spacetime power around it surged again, the black mist churning even more violently, making final preparations for the great battle with Di Tian three days later.
The golden light in the sky gradually faded, but the tremors brought by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King made the already tense situation on the continent even more volatile.
The raging energy, a culmination of a million years of cultivation combined with two hundred thousand years of rewards, surged in the deep sea for three days before the Deep Sea Demon Whale King finally moved.
"Boom—!"
A deafening roar echoed from the ten-thousand-meter-deep trench. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's colossal body burst through the surface, its dark blue scales gleaming coldly under the blazing sun. The scar around its left eye throbbed with extreme rage.
The infusion of two hundred thousand years of cultivation had propelled its aura to the pseudo-god level. Each swing of its tail fin unleashed a tsunami a thousand meters high, the waves carrying the roars of countless deep-sea soul beasts, crashing towards Seagod Island like a black torrent.
"Poseidon isn't here?"
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's spiritual power swept across the entire island. Sensing the disappearance of that familiar divine pressure, a bloodthirsty smile curled a
t the corners of its Zheng Ning.
