The Deep Sea Demon Whale King Is Furious! Is Chang'an City Full of Gunpowder?

The cultivation of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King climbed frantically upward.

When it reached nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine years.

Signs of a million-year heavenly tribulation suddenly appeared above the firmament, accompanied by rolling thunder:

"Rumble--"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King felt the might of the heavenly tribulation, his body unable to stop trembling.

Under the influence of instinctive fear, the warning from Poseidon from years ago echoed in his mind.

He even hallucinated a phantom of Poseidon holding a trident, mocking him:

"Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, the God Realm does not allow soul beasts to become gods! Stop struggling; you were born a soul beast, and it is your fate that you cannot become a god!"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King snapped back to reality, his scarlet single eye erupting with blood-colored cold light:

"To hell with your fate! My life is determined by me, not the heavens! Whether I become a god or not, I am the only one who decides!"

As his voice fell, he violently swallowed the Tribulation Transcendence Pill he had been rewarded with, letting out a deafening roar:

"Tribulation Transcendence Pill! Help me break through!!!"

The moment the pill was consumed, the heavenly tribulation phenomena vanished, and he successfully broke through to become a true million-year-level entity!

"Boom--!"

The aura of a million years centered on the Demonic Whale Sea Area, sweeping wildly across the entire ocean and even reaching the continent.

For a time, the living beings across more than half the plane were shaken; whether soul beasts or humans, all major powers were stunned!

"Mom, Dad has successfully broken through to a million years! Does that mean he is about to become a god?"

Lan Fozi and the Demon Empress watched this scene from not far away, and her daughter, Lan Fozi, asked excitedly.

The Demon Empress's eyes were filled with complexity; Poseidon's warning from years ago had always lingered in her heart.

"Hahahahaha!"

Feeling power like never before, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King laughed wildly, looked up at the sky, and roared majestically:

"God Realm! This King has broken through a million years; why haven't you bestowed godhood upon me yet!"

But there was no movement in the sky, and Poseidon's warning from years ago was confirmed at this moment.

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had spent the last twenty thousand years devouring and growing stronger solely to become a god and take revenge on Poseidon.

But at this moment, this scene made his efforts seem like a joke!

"Ahhh--!"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King roared in unwillingness, but soon thinking of something, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Sea God Island.

"Since I cannot find you personally to take revenge, then I will destroy your place of inheritance! This King is now invincible beneath the gods; who can stop me!"

Seeing this, the Demon Empress hurriedly swam forward, blocking his path with an urgent tone:

"Husband, you cannot! Poseidon must have left a desperate trump card on Sea God Island! Even though you have broken through to a million years, you must still think this over!"

Lan Fozi also hurriedly followed, saying worriedly:

"Dad, don't be impulsive! Sea God Island will surely appear on the Sky Screen Power Ranking as well. If they receive even better rewards, the situation will be dire!"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King did not listen at all, his eyes filled with violence:

"No trump card can stop the current me! I will annihilate them before they can receive any rewards!"

As he finished speaking, his figure flickered, and he sped toward the direction of Sea God Island.

"Husband!"

"Dad!"

The mother and daughter tried to chase, but the surrounding seawater suddenly solidified, forming a barrier that trapped them.

"This is... ah!"

The Demon Empress's expression changed drastically, and she cursed angrily:

"This bastard actually placed a restriction on us! Does he want to take on Sea God Island all by himself? Is he really that confident?!"

Lan Fozi thought differently, her eyes filled with worry as she said:

"Mom, maybe Dad didn't want us to follow him into danger? Dad... he won't be in trouble, will he?!"

At this point, the Demon Empress had no choice but to pray:

"Be good, your father will be fine; he will definitely return safely. We must believe in him!"

Chang'an City.

"What a terrifying aura..."

Hua Mulan felt the vast pressure coming from the ocean and asked Ye Han in surprise:

"City Lord, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King has broken through to a million years; doesn't that mean he can become a god now?!"

Before Ye Han could respond, Shangguan Wan'er lifted her chin slightly to glance at her, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance:

"Hmph, the God Realm does not allow soul beasts to become gods. Even if one breaks through a million years, they still cannot ascend. Besides, becoming a god normally requires a god position; how could it be that simple? Do you not even know this?"

Hua Mulan was already feeling stifled because of the ambiguity between Shangguan Wan'er and the City Lord earlier.

Now, being lectured by the other party in such a condescending tone, she could no longer hold back and laughed:

"Haha, Lady Shangguan is a scholar and often stays by the City Lord's side, so it is only natural that you know more. It would be strange if you didn't."

Shangguan Wan'er frowned, how could she not hear the subtext in the other's words?

It appeared to be a compliment, but it actually hid a jab that she only knew these things because she relied on her closeness to the City Lord.

"Alright, alright."

Seeing the atmosphere between the two women becoming increasingly tense, Ye Han shook his head helplessly to interrupt.

"Wan'er, Mulan, you are both important pillars of Chang'an and should work together to help each other. Do not act like this again in the future."

As he spoke, Ye Han took the slender hands of the two women and gently placed them together.

"Mm..."

The moment their hands were pulled together by Ye Han, both women trembled visibly, their faces flushing slightly red.

However, the moment they made contact with each other, a flash of displeasure quickly welled up in their eyes.

"Do you both understand?"

Ye Han swept his gaze over the two women's delicate faces and asked again.

Shangguan Wan'er and Hua Mulan were both startled, then hurriedly nodded in agreement:

"Yes, we will follow the City Lord's instructions in everything!"

Yet, in the depths of their eyes, a stubborn refusal to yield still remained.

Ye Han did not notice this; he withdrew his hand, slowly looked up at the Sky Screen, and said with a faint, enigmatic smile:

"The remaining top five powers are the main event. Let us take a good look."

Suddenly remembering something, Ye Han slowly looked toward the direction of the Heaven Dou Empire in the north and muttered:

"Calculating the time, Sikong Zhen should have already arrived deep within the Sunset Forest and likely found the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well by now."

Sunset Forest.

The facts were exactly as Ye Han had expected; Sikong Zhen had already arrived and penetrated deep into the hinterland.

Until he reached a thick, green, poisonous miasma that emitted a corrosive and pungent odor.

"Is this the poison array that the City Lord mentioned was artificially created to protect the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? It doesn't look like much."

A sharp glint flashed in Sikong Zhen's eyes. He raised his right hand slightly, and blue Thunder surged instantly.

"Where the Thunder reaches, nothing shall remain!"

He swung his right hand toward the poisonous miasma, and the violent power of the Thunder instantly tore open a long passage.

"Pathetic."

With one hand behind his back and the other holding a condensed spatial cube, Sikong Zhen walked into the passage he had cleared.

As he ventured deeper, the gap in the poisonous miasma behind him gradually healed as before...

After passing through the miasma, the scene before him changed abruptly.

This was a strange valley, and in the very center lay a spring shaped like a red and blue Taiji diagram.

One side emitted extreme heat, while the other emitted extreme cold; this was precisely the target of his journey.

--Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!
