Encountering the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!

"Xue'er's gotten shy." Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled as he watched Qian Renxue's departing figure.

"About Sister Xue, could it be..." Upon hearing Golden Crocodile Douluo's words, Lin Chen recalled Qian Renxue's recent unusual behavior and what she had said to him at the Spirit Hall more than two months ago, and his mind went blank for a moment.

"No, that can't be. Although I am indeed outstanding and handsome, it's impossible." Lin Chen looked in the direction where Qian Renxue disappeared, his old face turning red.

Dugu Bo seemed to sense Lin Chen's embarrassment and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Young Chen, you absorbed Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone, so your Soul Power should have increased a lot, right?"

"Ah, right." Upon hearing this, Lin Chen decisively replied, "I'm already a level 64 Soul Emperor."

Qian Jun Douluo laughed loudly, "Hahaha, Lin Chen, you little rascal, you really are a prodigy. What normal Soul Emperor can absorb Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring? You're a real Little Monster."

Lin Chen smiled and said modestly, "Senior Qian Jun, you flatter me. Didn't Sister Xue also obtain a 100,000-year God-given Soul Ring at the Soul Saint stage?"

"Don't be modest, kid. You're probably good enough to go toe-to-toe with a level 89 peak Soul Douluo now, right?" Demon Subduing Douluo said with a smile.

"That's about right. I'm definitely confident now, but I'm not guaranteed to win." Lin Chen felt his own power surge, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"With my current strength, I might be able to possess combat power comparable to Titled Douluo without even becoming Soul Saint."

Even a level 70 quasi- Soul Saint is vastly different from a true Soul Saint.

This is because a true Soul Saint can unleash the 'Martial Soul Avatar,' resulting in a massive increase in combat power, far surpassing that of a level 70 Quasi -Soul Saint.

"Young Master Chen, your Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills and Soul Bones should have provided four Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills, right? How do you feel about them?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked, his tone full of curiosity.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo, Snake Lance Douluo, and the others all cast curious glances at him.

Lin Chen nodded and explained with a smile, "My four Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills are the offensive Soul Ring Soul Skill 'Holy Light Sky Arrow' and the amplifying Soul Ring Skill 'Holy Spirit Possession'."

"Then, regarding Soul Bones and Soul Skills, one is the offensive Holy Light Flying Blade, and the other is the defensive Holy Light Rainbow Transformation."

"These four Soul Skills are all extremely powerful, far surpassing the Soul Skills of my previous Soul Rings."

"I really envy you, kid. You're so young and you already possess several Hundred Thousand Year Soul Skills. We're all quite envious," Dugu Bo laughed heartily.

Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled and nodded, "Work hard, the future of the Spirit Hall depends on you and Xue'er."

Qian Jun Douluo also laughed, "We old guys are just waiting to retire; the future ultimately belongs to you."

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Thank you for your kind words, seniors. I will definitely work harder in the future."

Golden Crocodile Douluo said with a smile, "In that case, when we return to the Spirit Hall, I will discuss with the Great Enshrined to see if we can finalize your marriage with Xue'er."

"Well... let's talk about it when we get back. I'm not ready yet." Lin Chen's face flushed red, and he quickly fled back to the Vast Sea.

"Hehe... It's so good to be young." Qian Jun Douluo smiled as he watched Lin Chen's departing figure.

The Demon Subduing Douluo nodded with a smile, "Yes, I just don't know how long this peaceful life can last. We're really lucky; we haven't encountered a powerful Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in so long."

Golden Crocodile Douluo sneered, "The Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast of the Sea, that Evil Orca King, has already been driven away by us."

"The guardian beast of that Sea God Island is not even as strong as the Evil Orca King. Unless the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King comes in person, what can happen even if we encounter it?"

"Second Brother is right, but shouldn't we leave here too?" said Qian Jun Douluo.

"That's true, let's go then."

After the discussion, everyone prepared to leave the Sea.

They've spent nearly two months hunting Soul Beasts in the Sea, and it's time for them to go back.

Seven days later

Perhaps due to their luck running out, Lin Chen and his group's return journey was not smooth. A sudden thick fog rising from the sea, along with continuous tsunamis, caused them to deviate from their original course.

"Damn it... what's wrong with this weather? Every day it's either a tsunami or a thick fog. I can't see anything, I don't even know where I am." Demon Subduing Douluo frowned and cursed as he looked at the dense sea fog in front of him.

"Moreover, this sea fog can also block spiritual detection. My spiritual power could only penetrate less than a hundred meters before I couldn't see anything at all." Dugu Bo also frowned deeply.

"Sixth Grandfather, we're probably off course now." Qian Renxue stood on the deck, her face immediately darkening.

Lin Chen nodded. "According to the timeline, we should have arrived at the outer edge of the Sea long ago, but we're still in the middle of the ocean. We've probably really lost our way."

"Something's not right. This Sea is far too eerie." Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned deeply, then his heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of unease suddenly surged into his heart.

"This feeling... could it be!" Golden Crocodile Douluo clutched his heart, fully releasing his mental power, and immediately felt a suffocating aura suddenly appear, which was rapidly approaching.

"Everyone on alert! Something big is coming!" Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression changed, and he immediately roared loudly.

"Boom--!"

As soon as Golden Crocodile Douluo finished speaking, an explosive roar suddenly erupted beneath their feet, blasting Lin Chen and the others, along with the Vast Sea beneath them, violently into the air.

The Vast Sea, with its enormous size and hull made of various sturdy metals, couldn't withstand the violent impact for even a second before being torn to pieces.

The most terrifying thing was that, under that violent tremor, everyone was thrown hundreds of meters into the air. Even someone as powerful as Golden Crocodile Douluo felt dizzy and lightheaded.

The once calm seawater began to churn violently, creating towering waves. A thick column of water, fifteen meters in diameter, shot into the sky, distorting the air and becoming the culprit that destroyed the Vast Sea.

As the Vast Sea was destroyed, a massive body, resembling a small island, slowly rose from the water.

All the surrounding seawater was covered with a thick blue luster. At this moment, it seemed as if the sky was the earth, and the sea had become the azure sky.

A deep, muffled roar resounded, and a massive sound wave surged forth. Lin Chen and the others had just recovered from the dizziness caused by the previous violent shock when they were once again shaken slightly by the enormous roar.
