A Rebel Trying to Turn the Enemy Lord
Your laughter is really awful; you have absolutely no self-awareness.
Just as Han Li was about to make a move, the piercing laughter stopped on its own, and a huge Soul Power barrier rose up, separating Han Li and Ye Lingling.
"Human, you're quite strong to have withstood that attack. How about we cooperate?"
Amid Han Li's puzzled expression, a voice, still terribly unpleasant but with a seductive quality, emanated from the seabed, causing him to abandon his immediate plan to act.
He wanted to know what the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was up to.
"Cooperation? How do you want to cooperate?"
Han Li looked at the sea with interest, then added, "If we're talking about cooperation, you're not even showing up now, so it can't be said that you're sincere, can it?"
"Very good, human. I admire you. You may be somewhat ignorant, but you are not stupid."
As the sound rang out, golden specks of light burst forth from the dark sea, and an enormous body emerged from the water.
With just a glance, Han Li could roughly estimate the length of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Its enormous body was an astonishing two hundred meters long, and its entire body was sapphire-like in color.
Its appearance, which should have been beautiful, was made unsettling and gave off a cold feeling by its single eye and the aura it exuded.
Han Li met its gaze, and even took the time to turn around and wave to Ye Lingling and the other person, indicating that there was no need to worry.
Then, turning around, he saw the smile in the eyes of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, which seemed to suggest that the child was teachable.
Huh? Han Li was even more confused. What exactly did this whale want to do?
"You made the right choice."
After surfacing, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's voice was more pleasant than before, at least it no longer tormented my eardrums.
"Do you want to follow the path of Self-Created Godhood, like the Sea God?"
It suddenly spoke up and asked.
Although Han Li concealed his aura well, he still used divine power when he used Azure Feather to block the lightning attack, and this fact naturally did not escape the notice of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King lurking at the bottom of the sea.
"Um."
Han Li also wanted to see what it was really up to, so he simply nodded in agreement.
"I can help you."
The deep voice of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King rang out, causing Han Li to raise an eyebrow.
Before he could ask, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King continued, "I am different from them."
It glanced at Qian Daoliu and Ye Lingling, who were isolated by it, with its huge single eye, its eyes filled with undisguised greed and killing intent.
The Spirit Hall had attacked Sea God Island before, and it was well aware of Qian Daoliu's identity.
"I don't need faith. I can help you collect the faith of all the Soul Beast across the entire ocean, allowing you to become a god faster. Isn't that what you need?"
"Believe me, the Sea God cannot do this."
Its words were full of confidence, with a hint of disdain.
Han Li blinked. He roughly guessed what the giant whale wanted to do, but he just frowned and didn't answer.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King glanced at him, not surprised that he didn't respond, and continued, "Of course, you may not trust me, but I have other ways."
"What method?"
Han Li decided to continue following its line of thought.
"Since you came with the successor of the Sea God, you should be well aware of my power. I once fought against the Sea God, and I am only one step away from achieving that goal. What I want to tell you is that I have already broken through to the million-year mark and found a path to godhood as well."
It paused deliberately, looked at Han Li whose eyes had lit up, and then continued, "After approaching the god level, you only need to devour the successor of a god to take his place. This is undoubtedly faster and more reliable than following the path of the Sea God to become a god."
It spoke very slowly, almost uttering each word one by one.
At the same time, it was also observing Han Li's every move.
"Real?"
Han Li looked up, his face flushed, and his eyes were already bloodshot. In the eyes of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, this was undoubtedly a sign of excitement.
"Of course, I'm very sure."
A strange light flickered in the eyes of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but his voice was filled with determination.
This human was undoubtedly tempted, but it was obviously deceiving him. It wasn't sure; its body's instincts were telling it that devouring the Seagod Successor would be extremely beneficial.
"You can devour me, but what about me?"
Han Li seemed to have calmed down and stared straight at it.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's "hoho" laughter rang out again, seemingly unconcerned about Han Li's doubts.
"All we need is the power within their bodies, not for you to learn from me and eat... it."
Considering that the person in front of him was also a human, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King changed his words.
At the same time, it mocked Han Li in its heart. How ignorant he was! He was smitten, wasn't he?
It was not afraid of Qian Daoliu, but it knew very well that it could not stop him either. After sensing the fleeting divine power aura on Han Li's body, and that it was not the aura of the Angel God or the Sea God that it knew, it began to have a wicked idea.
It has lived for a long time and had many dealings with the Sea God. If it were really stupid, it wouldn't have survived to this day and still possess such great strength.
It wasn't sure if its actions would succeed, but it was better than making no progress at all. Its strength hadn't improved in a long time, and it was unwilling to accept that. It also wanted to take the final step and become a god. Why? It was no less powerful than the Sea God.
The appearance of Han Li was the solution it had come up with.
As long as he is willing to cooperate, and as long as he can successfully ambush Qian Daoliu and give it room to maneuver, it will definitely be able to swallow that successor of the Sea God whole to prove its ideas.
As for Han Li, what does it have to do with him? The allure of swallowing Ye Lingling is far stronger than that of the person before it, but as long as he makes a move, it doesn't mind killing him as a snack, since he is also a human with the qualifications to become a god, and is worth being devoured by it.
Han Li's face showed a struggle, but he was speechless. He thought this guy was up to something, but it turned out he was just taking him for a fool and trying to fool him.
But believe it or not, if it were someone else who was actually on the path of slowly ascending to godhood by accumulating the Faith Power, they might actually be persuaded by it; it sounds quite tempting.
Seeing the expression on his face, a hint of joy flickered in the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's single eye.
Sure enough, this fits its stereotype of human Soul Master: cunning, shameless, and no good at all.
The experience of fighting that fish-eating thing called Sea God has brought it some useful things, and now is the time to put them to good use.
"You don't need to kill them both, you just need to shoot them down. It's not difficult when they're off guard, is it?"
"A thousand years, and you still might not succeed. Can you be sure you can become the next Sea God? Why is it that the human woman only needed to pass the test to become a god, while you need a long time, and the outcome isn't even guaranteed to be good? Are you willing to accept that?"
"This is a chance to rise to the top in one step, isn't it?"
At this moment, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King became much more eloquent, immersing itself in the situation and speaking from the heart.
Wow, that sounds so exciting, it makes you want to throw caution to the wind!
Han Li's eyes gradually changed, and his aura became unstable. His anger was ignited, and he seemed to be affected by it.
"It seems you agree."
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's piercing laughter rang out again, but it couldn't hide the excitement within.
"Come on, reveal your Martial Soul. I will control the force to send you flying to their side. You should know what to do next. I'm giving you the chance."
Fearing that things might get complicated if he delayed, Han Li realized what was happening as soon as the time was up. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King urged him impatiently, even planning out how the next act would go.
A flash of light appeared in Han Li's hand, revealing the Ice Fire Divine Dragon Bow, whose aura was not particularly noticeable.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King could feel some discomfort; its skin surface had a stinging sensation, but it had no doubt that without this talent, this human would not have reached this level.
Han Li's expression remained somewhat uncertain, as if he had not yet made up his mind completely.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King spoke again, "Come, attack me. Only if I am injured will they not suspect anything."
It used to have subordinates, but now most of them have ended up in its belly, and it has seen the Sea God handle similar matters before.
It understands that when the other person is hesitant, you shouldn't give them a choice, but directly offer a solution. At that point, the person will most likely follow through.
This is the wisdom of a whale that has been tempered by the passage of time.
Sure enough, the instant it dispelled its Soul Power barrier, it controlled the water flow to attack Han Li.
It saw Han Li's eyes clear up, and a murderous intent burst forth. With a graceful step back, its right hand had already drawn the bowstring.
Yes, that's it. The smile in the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's single eye gradually deepened.
Then it saw a pale red arrow flying towards it with a light, airy motion.
This human's acting is a bit poor, not as good as Sea God's.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King gave its evaluation, comparing it to its former rival, the Sea God.
However, it doesn't matter, as long as we succeed, these details don't matter.
Thinking this, it controlled the rising water column to strike Han Li.
The water column was thicker than the lightning bolt from before, but it was just for show.
It looked expectantly at Han Li's location, only to find that he remained motionless after the water column touched him.
Hmm? The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's last remaining eye widened slightly, a bad premonition rising in its heart.
Then, it saw the pale red arrow that it had ignored suddenly accelerate and pierce its back.
To avoid arousing its suspicion, Han Li deliberately did not choose the most sensitive part, the head.
At the same time, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King also heard his voice.
"I forgot to tell you, the successor of the Sea God is my girlfriend. And your old acquaintance Poseidon has already transferred the faith of the Sea Soul Beast to me, and he even notified the entire region."
"So, guess which clown without any henchmen missed the notification?"
