The Devil Shark's Head Beyond the Strait

"Look! Ye Qiu's Second Soul Ring turned black!" Hu Liena cried, raising a hand to point at him.

"I saw it." Huo Wu nodded, her eyes shining. Shui Bing'er frowned and said softly, "Ye Qiu has reached level eighty. I'm afraid... he'll be leaving Sea God Island early, won't he?"

Shui Bing'er's words brought Xiao Wu and the others' playful chatter to a halt.

They looked at Ye Qiu, their eyes full of reluctance to see him go.

"..."

Ye Qiu slowly opened his eyes wide. The Asura Nine Trials Fourth Trial required him to obtain a Hundred Thousand Year Eighth Soul Ring and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. Wasn't that telling him to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?

Still, Ye Qiu was only mildly surprised.

He had already planned to make both his eighth and ninth Soul Rings Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings. Each had to come with two Soul Skills, too, because his Venom Spirit had undergone a change. Ye Qiu hoped others of its kind existed in the world. If they did, the strength at his side would grow considerably.

A smile appeared on Ye Qiu's face as he gazed into the distance. Beyond the funnel-shaped strait lay a calmer stretch of sea. His eyes glowed gold and blue, and with their extraordinary sight, he could make out a huge shark's head bobbing on the surface.

Other Demon Soul Great White Sharks swam beside that shark's head. What puzzled Ye Qiu was how close those waters lay to Raging Waves Despair. Sea Spirit Beasts rarely ventured there, and even when hunting for food, they had better places to go. Yet Xiao Bai, the Great White Shark King of the Devil Soul, kept bringing her pod here to snatch a bite. It made little sense.
