The boundless deep sea, somewhere.
This is not the Nest No. 2 where Kraken is hiding, nor is it the intersection of any known seafloor veins or ocean currents. It is surrounded by pure darkness that seems to swallow up all light. It is silent, and even the ocean currents seem to deliberately avoid this area. Only occasionally, in the depths of absolute darkness, will two deep purple light spots light up, which are more heart-stopping than the deepest trenches.
Those are Demon Empress's eyes.
A huge, hundreds-meter-long silver body was quietly suspended in the center of the darkness. Her body was still breathtakingly beautiful, and her silver-white skin still glowed faintly in the absolute darkness, as if from the moonlight. Her elegant and smooth lines contained destructive power. But above this beauty, there were There were hideous and shocking scars. The deepest one almost completely tore her flank. The remaining golden-red energy was like a gangrene attached to the bone, constantly eroding the new flesh buds. There were countless other large and small burns, penetrating wounds, and lacerations. The silver glow was dim, and the breath flickered like a candle in the wind.
Behind her huge body, two relatively "petite" figures were closely guarding her. They were giant beasts with fierce and concentrated auras and pure and powerful Demon Whale fluctuations all over their bodies - they were her only two close bodyguards. The guards and Deep Sea Demon Whale, whose cultivation base is more than 450,000 years old, also bear numerous scars on their bodies and their breaths are unstable, but the loyalty and fierceness in their eyes have not diminished at all, like the most loyal rocks, guarding their seriously injured queen.
And in the safest area under Demon Whale Empress, a young Demon Whale, which is only more than 20 meters long, with a dreamy light blue color and scales as fine as gems, is gently swinging its tail fin uneasily. Her purple crystal-like eyes inherited from her mother are full of... In order to get rid of fear and dependence, she clings to her mother's cold body, as if she can gain a sense of security in this way. This is the daughter of the whale king, Douluo Continent, the Lan Fozi who will be Feng Yun in the future, but now she is still an ignorant and nameless cub, staying under the protection of her mother.
Six-Hundred-Thousand-Year's cultivation, the power that once traversed the deep sea and made countless Sea Soul Beasts frightened, has declined to the extreme. Every breath causes severe pain in the whole body, and every movement of Soul Power is like a blade scraping through damaged meridians. More importantly, Yes, her Origin was severely damaged. If it weren't for the Demon Whale Clan's powerful control over Mental Power, its extreme adaptability to the deep sea environment, and the two loyal guards who fought to break up the rear and share the pressure, she and her daughter would have perished in the previous siege.
"Your Majesty, you can no longer use Mental Power." Demon Whale Guards on the left said in a low voice, its mental fluctuations also carrying unconcealable exhaustion and pain, "Hailong's spiritual network is getting denser and denser, you need to be completely silent."
"It doesn't matter... I can still hold on." Demon Whale Empress's purple eyes slowly swept over the guard and the daughter beneath him, and there was a hint of imperceptible softness and deeper anxiety in the cold will. "I must bring her to live... bring them all to live."
But the current situation is desperate. She clearly senses that her vitality is constantly weakening. The injuries of the guards around her are also worsening, and her daughter is even more frightened and her strength is low. Sea Dragon Douluo, that Level 98 monster, personally leads the other two Sacred Pillar, including dozens of Soul Douluo, hundreds of Soul Saint, and a large number of middle and low-level Soul Master, have laid a dragnet, and like the most patient hunters, are gradually compressing their living space.
It's a miracle that they managed to escape here. But miracles don't always happen.
Just then--
An extremely weak, extremely obscure, yet somehow strangely familiar Soul Power wave, like a tiny pebble thrown into stagnant water, created an almost imperceptible aura at the edge of her huge and weak mental perception.
This fluctuation...
Demon Empress's huge, dark purple eyes opened suddenly, and all the fatigue and pain were replaced by instant surprise and vigilance. Ignoring the dissuasion of the guards, she concentrated the remaining Mental Power, like the most sophisticated radar, capturing the message that was almost lost in the darkness.
The fluctuations were intermittent, vague and absent, as if they came from an extremely distant place and had been weakened and interfered with many times. But she would never admit it! The core characteristics contained in those fluctuations
Moreover, at the same time as that wave of fluctuations came, she vaguely sensed that an extremely brief energy collision that made her feel palpitations erupted in the deserted sea area in the southwest, called "Whale Burial Sea Abyss". One of them, with an aura that disgusted her to the extreme, seemed to be that damn Sea Spear!, and the other was extremely weak, but originated from the same race, and was full of pathos and unyielding Demon Whale aura!
And... other tribesmen? A thought flashed across my mind. Could it be that... in addition to us, there are other tribesmen who escaped, and even... suspected of repelling the existence of Sea Spear?
Hope is like a stone thrown into the lake of the heart, causing ripples in circles.
"Your Majesty?" Demon Whale Guards on the right was keenly aware of the abnormal fluctuations in Demon Whale Empress's spirit.
"... Southwest, in the direction of Whale Burial Sea Abyss." Demon Whale Empress's mental transmission carried a trace of imperceptible fluctuations, passing the captured vague information and his own speculations to the two most loyal guards. "There were reactions from the same race... and a... strange and powerful existence. He may have repelled Sea Spear."
The huge bodies of the two Demon Whale Guards were shocked at the same time, and their eyes burst into light of hope, but they were immediately replaced by deep vigilance.
"Your Majesty, could it be a trap?" the guard on the left said solemnly, "Sea God Island is full of tricks. Perhaps he is imitating the aura of our clan to lure us out."
"It may also be an unknown predator." The guard on the right added, "That kind of fluctuation... is very strange and full of ominousness. Even if it is not a trap by Sea God Island, it may not be a friend."
Demon Empress doesn't know. She knows that there is no unreasonable kindness in the deep sea. An existence with such strange and powerful power suddenly appears at a time when the Demon Whale clan is almost extinct. Whether it is a blessing or a disaster is unpredictable. Will he covet his own strength, bloodline, or even his own children?
But if you don't seize this, this may be your only chance... If you stay here, there will be only a dead end, and it won't take long. Hailong's encirclement is closing in, and she can feel the getting closer and suffocating oppression of divine thoughts. She can wait, but the seriously injured guard around her can't wait, and her young daughter can't wait either.
This is a dilemma. On one side is the known and pressing dragnet, and on the other is the unknown mysterious existence and vague signals from the same species that may bring a glimmer of hope or destruction.
In the darkness, those huge purple eyes flashed fiercely, showing the owner's fierce inner struggle. Severe pain kept attacking her nerves, and the weak life fluctuations in her belly trembled slightly, conveying a trace of pain that broke her heart. The daughter beneath her seemed to sense her mother's pain and struggle, and made a subtle, whimpering whale call, gently rubbing against her.
In the end, the hesitation in the light slowly settled down and was replaced by an almost desperate determination.
"There is no choice anymore..." Her huge soul let out a silent sigh, and then transformed into an iron will. "Stay here, there will be no chance of death. Find that glimmer of possibility... Maybe a narrow escape, but in the end... there is a glimmer of life. For my children, for the possible existence of the tribe... I must take a gamble!"
She looked at the two guards, and her mental message was firm and clear. "To the southwest, in the direction of Whale Burial Sea Abyss. Hide your breath and restrain all fluctuations. That is our... last chance."
The two Demon Whale Guardss looked at each other, with the same determination flashing in their eyes. They didn't ask whether it was worth it, or how hopeful they were. From the moment they chose to follow the Queen to break out, their fates had been tied together.
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
Demon Empress began to carefully and extremely slowly mobilize the few remaining Soul Power, using all Demon Whale Clan's inheritance to conceal Mental Power and aura Secret Art. A layer of light, like a water-moon mirror The flower-like silver halo enveloped her and the two guards, even her young daughter, completely suppressing all their life breath, Soul Power fluctuations, and even the slight ripples caused by the friction between the body and the sea water. From a distance, it looked like a few real cold meteorites drifting slowly with the undercurrent of the deep sea.
Target--southwest, direction Whale Burial Sea Abyss.
The forward speed is excruciatingly slow, and the direction and disguise state must be adjusted at any time according to the suffocating tracking spirit of Sea Dragon Douluo transmitted through the fuzzy induction. Every tiny movement is accompanied by tearing pain and huge risks. The two guards, one on the left and the other on the right, protect the queen and the young master in the middle, alert to any possible disturbance.
But their eyes were more determined than the lightless deep sea. Six-Hundred-Thousand-Year's pride and the dignity of the deep sea overlord were temporarily put away in front of the instinct of survival and protection. At this moment, she was just a mother who wanted to live and protect her children, a fugitive trying to grasp the last straw in a desperate situation.
In the dark deep sea, several huge, lifeless pieces of "Rock" began to move at an imperceptible speed toward a distant and unknown direction, moving with difficulty, pain, and incomparable persistence.
Behind them, Sea God Island nearly 40% of the elite, Level 98 The dragnet laid out under the personal command of Sea Dragon Douluo, almost covering thousands of miles of sea, was like a ghost in the deep sea, gathering silently and firmly. Sea Dragon Douluo stood resolutely on the bow of the ship, his eyes like lightning, scanning the boundless darkness. He could feel that the seriously injured big fish was struggling in a corner of this sea area. He was not in a hurry.
At the same time, in the distant Sea God Island, in Nest No. 2, in every corner of the deep sea, the threads of fate seemed to be moved by an invisible big hand, and began to quietly converge towards a certain focus.
