Gu Yuena and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Mysterious Confidence!

The words of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Di Tian, had just fallen.

The gentle, water-like Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, chimed in:

"My Lord, what Di Tian says is true. The immortal herbs nurtured within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well must have miraculous effects that will surely assist in your recovery."

The proud Hell Demon Dragon King, Zi Ji, even took the initiative to volunteer:

"My Lord, this subordinate is willing to personally head to the Sunset Forest, locate the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and bring back all the immortal herbs!"

Most of the other Great Beast Kings agreed with their proposal.

Only the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, Xiong Jun, who had always refused to submit to Di Tian, remained silent.

There was not a ripple in Gu Yuena's purple eyes, and her voice was as cold as an icy spring:

"There is no need. Even if it was nurtured by the remains of the Fire Dragon King and the Ice Dragon King, it is ultimately not a true divine object. I fear it would not be of much use to me, and I have no interest in it."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Great Beast Kings were all stunned.

Di Tian's brows furrowed tightly, and he opened his mouth, wanting to persuade her further.

The next second, however, he was interrupted by a hoarse voice.

"Di Tian, have you lost your mind?"

Xiong Jun stood out, shaking his sturdy frame, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Now that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well has been exposed, the major human factions will surely scramble to get there. If we rush over now, aren't we just exposing ourselves? When that happens and we draw a swarm of human experts to covet and besiege us, can you take responsibility for that?"

Upon hearing this, the Three-Headed Red Demon Hound, Chi Wang, and the Demon Eye Demon Tree, Wan Yao Wang, could not help but feel there was some truth to his words.

Although they were powerful themselves, they were well aware that this era was filled with many human experts, especially those who served as messengers for the gods.

No single human faction could contend with them one-on-one, but there were simply too many human factions, and they could join forces to deal with them.

"Xiong Jun! Do you think I hadn't considered that?!"

Di Tian turned his head abruptly to glare at Xiong Jun, rage churning in his golden beast pupils:

"Since the Sky Screen can expose the Sunset Forest today, it will sooner or later reveal our Star Dou Forest to the public as well! Since we will be exposed regardless, why not take this opportunity to seize the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, try to restore the Lord's injuries, or attempt to increase our own strength to give Star Dou a bit more leverage!"

Once these words were spoken, the Great Beast Kings completely leaned toward Di Tian's side.

Xiong Jun was left speechless; it was true, they would be exposed by the Sky Screen sooner or later.

"Enough!"

A cold light flickered in Gu Yuena's purple eyes as she suddenly raised her voice, commanding with majesty:

"I know you all do this for the sake of Star Dou and for my early recovery, but why be so obsessed with those so-called immortal herbs?"

"With the foundation of our Star Dou, we will surely rank at the top of the Sky Screen's Power Ranking! The reward for the top spot will certainly be incomparable to other rewards; perhaps it will allow me to recover directly to my peak!"

Once this was said, the Great Beast Kings finally remembered the existence of the Sky Screen rankings—this was the true great opportunity.

Xiong Jun immediately chimed in, glaring at Di Tian with a provocative look:

"The Lord is right. Once our Star Dou takes the top spot and the Lord receives the reward to recover to her peak, getting whatever we want will be a simple matter. Why obsess over those immortal herbs now? Ridiculous!"

Di Tian had no grounds for rebuttal and could only grit his teeth and let it go.

Seeing them finally settle down, Gu Yuena's purple eyes shimmered with light as she said confidently:

"Watch closely. Our Star Dou will surely trample all human factions underfoot and claim the top spot!"

The Great Beast Kings, all aware of the foundation of the Star Dou Forest, raised their heads confidently to look at the golden Sky Screen.

As long as their Lord truly obtained the top-ranking reward and recovered from her injuries, they would have nothing to fear even if they were exposed.

The peak strength of the Silver Dragon King was not something these humans of the lower realm could contend with!

Meanwhile, in a flower patch not far from the crystal palace.

A golden little creature was hiding there, curiously watching the scene inside the hall.

She was the Imperial Auspicious Beast who carried the power of destiny for the Star Dou Forest—the Three-Eyed Golden Lion!

Listening to the discussion between Di Tian and the other Great Beast Kings in the hall.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion tilted her head, looking curiously at the Sky Screen.

She had always yearned for the outside world, yet she had never understood it.

If only she could find a place worth visiting through the Sky Screen.

The ocean, Demon Shark Bay on the outskirts of Sea God Island.

This sea area was the only path to reach Sea God Island.

The Demon Soul Great White Shark clan resided here, guarding Sea God Island for generations.

"Damn it, the soul beast faction can actually make the list; this is not good!"

The clan leader, Xiao Bai, who possessed one hundred thousand years of cultivation, looked at the Sky Screen and fell into a panic:

"If the ocean makes the list later, the representative for the strongest combat power will surely be the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. If he receives a reward and becomes even stronger, he will definitely come to harm my clan and Sea God Island!"

"No, I must discuss this with Lord Bo Saixi as soon as possible and prepare countermeasures in advance!"

Gray sea soul power halos rippled around Xiao Bai as she turned and sped toward Sea God Island.

The ocean, Demonic Whale Sea Area.

"Heaven helps me! With the foundation of the ocean, making the list is a certainty!"

The nearly million-year-old Deep Sea Demonic Whale King leaped out of the sea, his excited voice spreading across the ocean:

"If I obtain the ten-thousand-year cultivation and the Tribulation Transcendence Pill from the heaven-sent rewards, I will be able to break through to a million years directly, ignore the tenth heavenly tribulation, and ascend to become a god!"

At this moment, the 'Demon Empress' slowly swam out of the sea, her cold voice ringing out:

"Husband, will breaking through a million years really allow you to become a god? Don't forget the warning Poseidon gave twenty thousand years ago. The God Realm forbids soul beasts from ascending to godhood, and to become a god, one also needs a god position!"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King looked at her, his only remaining scarlet eye filled with disdain:

"You actually believe that old fool's threats? Once I break through to a million years and become a god, the first thing I'll do is destroy Sea God Island, then go to the God Realm to find that old fool and take revenge for blinding my eye back then!"

He paused, then couldn't help but snort as he continued:

"Demon Empress, you are truly stubborn. Twenty thousand years ago, I told you to follow me in devouring sea soul beasts and soul masters to increase your cultivation, but you refused. Back then, our cultivation levels weren't far apart, yet now I am approaching a million years, while you are only at two hundred and ninety thousand!"

The Demon Empress was silent for a moment, then shook her head gently:

"I worry about the impact on our child, Lan Fozi. Parents are a child's role model. If I did as you do, she would surely learn from it, and I do not wish for her to be that way."

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King said impatiently:

"Suit yourself. The law of the jungle is the law of heaven and earth; you will understand sooner or later."

Having said that, he stopped talking to the Demon Empress and looked up at the Sky Screen, muttering to himself:

"Aside from Sea God Island, I truly cannot think of any power that can rival my ocean, but in my opinion, Sea God Island is certainly inferior to the ocean!"

"Therefore, my vast ocean will surely rank first. When that time comes, how bountiful will the rewards I receive be? Just thinking about it makes me excited, hahahaha!"

Meanwhile, not far away, a small figure was quietly hiding and eavesdropping.

This was Lan Fozi, whose true form was also a deep sea demonic whale, possessing one hundred thousand years of cultivation.

"I also want to help Father take revenge..."

Lan Fozi looked at her father's blinded eye, feeling very angry yet filled with confusion:

"Father says that as long as I devour sea soul beasts and soul masters, I can quickly increase my cultivation, but this method is too cruel; I cannot do it."

"If only there were a better way to become stronger."

Lan Fozi couldn't help but look up at the Sky Screen, also certain in her heart that the ocean would be either first or second.

If there were a power that could surpass Sea God Island and the ocean, she would certainly want to go and see for herself just how powerful it was.

Moreover, perhaps she could find a way within that power to become stronger without going against her original intentions!

Extreme North.

In the deepest part of the core area, atop a snowy mountain peak.

"Xue'er, our Extreme North will surely make the list as well. What rank do you think we can get?"

The 'Ice Empress' withdrew her gaze from the Sky Screen and looked toward the 'Heavenly Snow Woman' beside her, asking.
