The next day, Qiu Qiguang’s Warhawk Legion opened a major battle, prompting a force of at least three hundred thousand sea folk to advance toward the war zone, just as Cheng Han’s deduction had predicted.

He concluded that Cheng had prepared a major counteroffensive and realized he had misjudged him.

• Qiu Qiguang recalled how a Treacherous Squid Missile killed over one hundred and fifty workers and lamented the growing civilian casualties in the Northern An War Zone.
• Qiu Qiguang remembered God General Zhu Rong reprimanding him after he complained about the war zone’s losses and Cheng General Overseer’s conduct.

• Water Lotus received the Mother Goddess’s highest tier of favor as more than three hundred Flower Nacre Clan members gathered in the Heart Chamber.
• Following Cheng Han’s guidance, Water Lotus and the Flower Nacre Clan began the Breath of Ten Thousand Seas, which Cheng Han enabled by exploiting a flaw in the Heart’s supernatural program.

• Cheng Han anticipated that Water Lotus’s search would draw out Fak Sea King and force An Bei Sea God and Xiao Quan Sea God into a difficult choice.
• God General Zhu Rong sensed the fluctuation from his true Divine Body and praised Cheng Han’s ability.

Cheng Han tracked Fak Sea King with the Breath of Ten Thousand Seas and watched God General Zhu Rong begin a display of Divine Power. He revealed that the spectacle was part of a trap meant to force An Bei Sea God and Xiao Quan Sea God to choose between saving Fak Sea King and abandoning him, leaving the Sea Race army’s morale in danger.

• God General Zhu Rong’s Divine Power cleared the rain clouds and heated the sky across the war zone, signaling that another battle had begun.
• Cheng Han explained that Zhu Rong was delaying his attack to make the Sea Race army believe its Sea Gods would abandon them.
• Cheng Han warned An Bei Sea God and Xiao Quan Sea God that waiting longer would worsen the battlefield situation, while intervening could expose them to attack.

Cheng Han watched Xiao Quan Sea God intervene to save Fak Sea King, then witnessed Star Evolution God General counter the Sea God's illusion and expose the White Squid Sea Demon. The Sea Gods were left facing another choice over whether to save Fak Sea King.

• Xiao Quan Sea God cast the Phantom Ink Divine Realm, turning the sea into a mirror and transferring God General Zhu Rong's flames into its illusion.

He created the third-rank Phantom World Secret Spirit Profound Imprint, which combined Secrecy, Spirit Puppets, and True Illusion.

• Cheng Han realized the White Squid Race's defeat could sway other Sea Races and thanked God General Zhu Rong for granting him the Sea King's carcass.

The Divine Fire Dragon used the Flower Nacre Sea Domain Lords as bait to lure and kill a White Squid Sea Demon with the Soul Dark Phantom Spirit Spear and their Mother God Seashells. After watching the battle through the Halo, Cheng Han contacted Water Lotus with the Star Transmission Method and invited her to come to him.

• The Divine Fire Dragon persuaded three Flower Nacre Sea Domain Lords to accompany it, then used Leap of Radiance to carry them over four thousand kilometers toward the enemy.
• The Divine Fire Dragon concealed its departure with Netherlight Leap and secretly struck the White Squid Sea Demon through a Secret Universe Spirit Chart Thread.
• The Soul Dark Phantom Spirit Spear wounded the White Squid Sea Demon and trapped it in a phantom world while the Divine Fire Dragon ordered the three lords to attack.
• The three lords' Mother God Seashells overwhelmed and killed the White Squid Sea Demon, and Cheng Han watched the battle in the Eastern Li War Zone.
• Cheng Han used the Star Transmission Method to call Water Lotus and promised her a Seed of Life, prompting her enthusiastic response.
