Night fell, and darkness shrouded the entire sea.
But soon, a brilliant golden Spirit Ring lit up almost the entire stretch of sea. Golden light enveloped everything, giving the impression of salvation bestowed upon all living beings.
Su Ernan knew better than to ignore good advice. Exerting every ounce of his strength, he had climbed to three hundred meters above the sea, the limit of his flight.
"Nine Spirit Rings, six Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings, and one whose age I can't identify, but which definitely exceeds a hundred thousand years. Mr. Qin, just how powerful are you?"
At first, he had indeed worried that Qin Yuan wasn't strong enough. Now, it seemed he had worried for nothing.
After all, even though the first six Spirit Rings beneath Qin Yuan's feet were merely Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, none was young. Every one was over fifty thousand years old!
Below, Qin Yuan held the God-Slaying Blade in a reverse grip. Lightning and flames intertwined along its length. The two attributes with the greatest offensive power blended together without canceling each other out, instead producing an effect greater than the sum of their parts.
The fire energy was Qin Yuan's own, while the lightning energy came from the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Within the Ninth Spirit Ring he had provided, the two attributes had abandoned their hostility and become vital "partners."
Qin Yuan descended to the surface of the sea. Countless tentacles instantly reached up from beneath it, seemingly intent on devouring him whole.
Before the tentacles could close around him, Qin Yuan unleashed his most powerful slash yet.
Blade Aura woven from lightning and flames struck the sea, raising towering waves. The seawater split apart like a vast rift valley.
Boundless Blade Aura
