A Chance for Profound Mystery Fusion!

The sea domain ran deep and vast.

With a furious dragon roar, colossal waves surged into the sky.

Roar!

A pitch-black Giant Dragon spread its wings and crashed into the waters where a Saint Domain Deep Sea demonic beast lurked.

A figure stood atop the Giant Dragon's back.

Lei Wen stood with his hands behind his back, his cold gaze fixed on the churning sea below.

The divine sense of a god-tier expert spread out without restraint.

Like an invisible net, it swept through every corner of the sea domain.

"Master."

"This place is full of nothing but little fish and shrimp."

"Not even one worthy of filling my teeth."

Xiao Bai yawned lazily.

As an Ice Spear Giant Dragon that had once dominated the peak of the Saint Domain, Xiao Bai's arrogance was etched into its bones.

Other than the master on its back, it acknowledged no one.

"Careful."

Lei Wen's voice was calm.

But his eyes remained locked on a dark patch of sea in the Deep Sea.

There, a massive shadow as large as a mountain lay silently in wait.

"Xiao Bai, go down."

"Drag that bug out for me."

As he spoke, Lei Wen pointed toward the hiding place below and ordered Xiao Bai.

"Alright!"

Upon hearing Lei Wen's command, Xiao Bai was first stunned, then immediately lunged downward with excitement.

Rumble—

The sea exploded as thousand-meter waves rose into the air.

Icy blue dragon breath raged beneath the water, and the once-calm currents instantly turned turbulent.

The stalemate lasted only a moment.

Hiss—

A sharp, ear-piercing hiss pierced through the surface and shot toward the clouds.

Immediately afterward—

The seawater churned violently.

A gigantic serpent head burst from the water.

It was a giant serpent more than eight hundred meters long, its body covered in dark green scales.

Its pair of vertical pupils blazed with furious rage as it glared at Xiao Bai in midair.

Sacred Beast form, Deep Sea Demon Serpent!

"Human!"

"Leave my territory at once!"

The Demon Serpent spoke in human language, its voice hoarse and unpleasant, like metal grinding together.

It was probing them.

The instincts of a Saint Domain demonic beast warned it that these humans were dangerous.

If it could drive them away without fighting, that would be best.

Lei Wen said nothing.

His response was a single step forward.

Boom!

The air within a thousand meters trembled at that instant.

The divine domain of a lower god descended in an instant.

Within a radius of ten thousand meters, all elements were trembling and submitting.

The raging waves came to an abrupt halt, as though someone had pressed the pause button.

The Demon Serpent's enormous body suddenly sank.

It stared in terror, unable to move at all.

The air around it had become an unbreakable prison, locking it firmly in place.

Its proud Saint Domain power could not even stir a ripple.

"God... a god?!"

The Demon Serpent's pupils shrank to pinpoints.

Burning terror flooded its mind like a tidal wave.

How was this possible?

Why would a god-tier expert come to this remote corner of the Deep Sea?

And attack the moment they arrived?

It did not even know what had happened!

The next instant—

Lei Wen moved.

There was no flashy technique.

Only the terrifying pressure belonging to a god-tier expert.

The void behind Lei Wen suddenly twisted.

An enormous worm-shaped phantom, impossible to describe, slowly crawled out.

Devourer's Form!

Talent divine ability activated!

A horrifying suction force erupted from the void and directly enveloped the Demon Serpent's massive body.

"No!"

The Demon Serpent let out a despairing shriek.

It felt its flesh, soul, and everything else being forcibly stripped away.

It wanted to struggle. It wanted to self-destruct.

But under the suppression of the divine domain, it could not even move a finger.

In the blink of an eye—

The Demon Serpent's eight-hundred-meter body turned into a streak of dark green light and vanished into the Devourer phantom's mouth.

Gulp.

In the void, a satisfied belch sounded.

The Devourer phantom dissipated.

Lei Wen closed his eyes and floated silently in the air.

Digesting.

This was a feast.

Not merely nourishment for flesh and blood, but plunder of laws as well.

Very soon—

Lei Wen's consciousness was completely immersed in an ocean of laws.

It was water.

Water unlike any he had ever seen.

Gentle and tolerant, yet containing enough weight to crush everything.

Before long—

The Deep Sea Demon Serpent gave Lei Wen a pleasant surprise.

Though it had only been a Saint Domain creature since birth—

It had survived in the Deep Sea for thousands of years.

Its understanding of the foundation of [Water Element] was unexpectedly profound.

That insight was violently dismantled and absorbed by Devourer's talent.

Lei Wen's water-element divine avatar suddenly trembled faintly.

That feeling was strange.

Like a solid block of cold ice suddenly being wrapped in a warm current.

Sharpness and softness.

Ice and water.

The two had always shared the same origin.

Ice was water in solid form.

Water was ice in liquid form.

"So this is it..."

Lei Wen suddenly opened his eyes, and a brilliant light burst from his pupils.

Profound mystery fusion!

[Ice Spear] and [Water Element] had actually found a chance to fuse!

Even if it was only a seedling for now—

It was enough to make Lei Wen ecstatic.

One had to know—

In the world of gods, becoming a god was not difficult. What was difficult was fusing profound mysteries.

Many lower gods, even upper gods, might not be able to fuse two profound mysteries.

Yet he had only just become a god, and he had already touched the threshold of fusion?

Was this the terror of Devourer's Form's Dark Dao?

It could directly plunder the insights of others, strip them apart by force, and use them to trigger his own enlightenment!

"Incredible."

Lei Wen licked his lips, a wild thrill flashing through his eyes.

"Xiao Bai!"

"Find a safe place. I need to enter seclusion."

At the bottom of the sea lay a massive trench.

Dark, silent.

It was a forbidden zone untouched by sunlight.

Lei Wen casually set up a simple divine barrier, keeping the seawater outside.

After doing this—

Lei Wen sat cross-legged, palms facing the sky.

All outside distractions were cut off at this moment.

Lei Wen's mind was fully immersed in that profound and mysterious world of laws.

In his left hand, cold air gathered. An Ice Spear shaped like a dragon's fang hovered there, radiating a chilling aura sharp enough to tear through space.

That was [Ice Spear].

In his right hand, water rippled. A dark green sphere of water slowly flowed, yet remained unbroken.

That was [Water Element].

"Fuse!"

With a thought from Lei Wen, he forcefully brought the two powers together.

Crack crack crack—

The moment the two forces came into contact, they produced a piercing sound, like water and fire refusing to coexist.

The Ice Spear sought to pierce the water sphere.

The water sphere sought to melt the Ice Spear.

Though they came from the same source, their external forms were completely opposed.

"As expected, it isn't that easy."

Lei Wen frowned slightly, but he was not discouraged.

If profound mystery fusion were that simple, the Great Circle upper gods would be everywhere.

He was in no rush.

The foresight and awareness of a transmigrator told him that haste made waste.

Since forceful fusion would not work, he needed to find common ground.

Ice condensed from water, while sharpness was ice's defining trait.

Then could water also become sharp?

Or could ice possess water's gentleness?

One concept after another flashed through Lei Wen's mind.

He began trying in silence.

Once.

Twice.

A thousand times.

Ten thousand times.
