Somewhere on the edge of a rift in the abyss.

Kraken's huge body was suspended quietly, and the light in its ice-blue eyes flickered, as if it was silently calculating. Suddenly, a trace of "Sure enough," a hint of understanding and cold ridicule flashed in its eyes.

"All four... are here? Old man, are you so 'considerate' about your subordinates, or... are you worried?" It sensed the rapidly approaching aura that included one Limit Douluo, two Level 98, and one full of hatred of level 93 Titled Douluo, and instantly judged the lineup of pursuers.

"That's good... I'll save you all the trouble. The scenery here is nice, just perfect for... burying you." Kraken said to himself in a low voice, his huge body slowly sinking into the depths of the fissure, eight tentacles dancing quietly, starting to trigger the surrounding undercurrents, earth veins and... countless "eyes" lurking in the darkness. A trace of extremely obscure thought fluctuations were transmitted deeper into the deep ocean abyss...

Above the sea, High Priest and his party have reached the target sea area.

The sea water below showed an abnormal ink black color, as if there was no bottom. The sea surface was eerily calm, with only subtle whirlpools slowly turning.

"High Priest, the devil is down there! The aura is very strong!" Mu Yun's eyes flashed with lightning, and hatred made him particularly sensitive to Kraken's aura. Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Avatar had fully emerged, and electric snakes were dancing around him.

"It hasn't gone far, it seems... waiting for us." High Priest's eyes were like a torch, sweeping across the seemingly calm sea below, but actually hiding murderous intent, and the scepter in his hand glowed, "Coral Douluo, Conch Douluo, set up 'Phantom Sea Heavenly Sound Formation' and stand firm in all directions to prevent sneak attacks. Elder Mu, you are in the center to provide support and use thunder to bombard from the far side. Don't rush in!"

"Yes!" Coral Douluo and Conch Douluo acted immediately. The light of Phantom Color Coral intertwined with the sound waves of Tide Sound Conch, quickly surrounding the four people with a blurry and tough dual field of light and sound, which could not only interfere with perception, but also provide defense and delay. Mu Yun closed his palms together, and the violent thunder compressed and condensed in the palms, ready to go.

"You evil beast! Hide your head and show your tail, get out of here!" High Priest no longer hesitated, poured his divine power into the scepter, and thrust it hard into the dark sea below!

"The power of Sea God, Abyss Fixation!"

A dazzling blue-gold halo erupted from the end of the scepter, spreading to several miles in an instant! The sea covered by the halo seemed to be instantly suppressed and solidified by an invisible force! The turbulent undercurrent subsided, the rotating vortex solidified, and the entire sea area seemed to have turned into a huge, indestructible blue crystal! Even the bottomless abyss was temporarily "solidified" on the surface under the suppression of this terrifying divine power!

"I found you!" High Priest's mental thoughts were like a net, and he instantly captured the cold aura that suddenly became clear and tried to struggle in the temporarily solidified sea abyss crack! His body swayed and appeared on the "solidified" sea surface. He raised his scepter high and aimed at the center of the crack, about to launch a thunderous strike!

However, just when the High Priest attack is about to be launched--

"Ouch--!!!"

"Roar--!!!"

"Gululu--!!!"

Countless violent, chaotic, and bloodthirsty roars suddenly exploded from the surrounding darkness of the deep sea that had not been completely suppressed by divine power! Immediately afterwards, countless terrifying black shadows of various shapes, like erupting submarine volcanoes, crazily poured out from all directions of the deep sea, rushing towards the sea area temporarily solidified by the "Abyss Fixation" magic!

There are Abyssal Giant Crab that are as big as a hill and have ferocious shells, there are densely packed groups of Ghost Shadow Arrow Fish with mouthparts flashing cold light, there are Giant Lantern Jellyfish that spit out corrosive acid balls, and there are Ten-Thousand-Year that are meandering and swimming, exuding the fierce power of Ten-Thousand-Year There are even tens of thousands of Mutated Poison Flood Dragon, like an army of deep sea monsters that were awakened instantly! Most of their eyes glowed with an abnormal red light, and they completely lost their minds, leaving only a crazy desire for the flesh and blood of living creatures and Soul Power!

Obviously, Kraken was well prepared. It did not arrange the ambush near the crevice where it was hiding, but scattered them further out. High Priest's "Abyss Fixation" magic had a limited range, but instead "activated" these fierce Sea Soul Beast that were affected or controlled by its breath!

"Be careful! It's a tide of beasts!" Coral Douluo shouted sharply, the phantom light flourished, and countless tough Coral Douluo branches grew crazily from the edge of the field, trying to stop, Entanglement's rushing Sea Soul Beast. Conch Douluo played passionate and sharp sound waves, forming circles of substantial sound blades, cutting through the schools of fish and poisonous dragons rushing at the front.

But there are too many of these Sea Soul Beasts! And there are many Ten-Thousand-Years mixed in among them. They are not afraid of death and attack "Phantom Sea Heavenly Sound Formation" crazily! The formation light screen fluctuates violently, and Coral Douluo and Conch Douluo's faces quickly turn pale, obviously under great pressure.

"High Priest! There are too many of these beasts!" Mu Yun roared, and the long-awaited thunder exploded! "Eighth Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Roaring Sky Strike!" Several thick thunder dragons roared and crashed into the herd, turning pieces of Sea Soul Beast into coke, but more Sea Soul Beast immediately filled the gap and rushed forward one after another.

High Priest's face was as heavy as water. He had to maintain the "Abyss Fixation" magic to lock and suppress Kraken's body, otherwise it would be difficult to capture it once it escapes. However, the threat from the peripheral beast tide was huge, and the three of Coral Douluo could not hold on for long.

"Elder Mu, use all your strength to clear out the perimeter! Coral Douluo, Conch Douluo, shrink your defenses and hold on!" High Priest made a prompt decision and injected more divine power into the scepter. While maintaining "Abyss Fixation", he focused part of his mind, raised his hand towards the area with the densest beast tide, and pressed it in vain!

"Sea God's Wrath, Surging Waves!"

"Boom--!"

Outside the sea area solidified by the magic of "Abyss Fixation", the sea suddenly exploded! Countless huge waterspouts with a diameter of more than ten meters rose into the sky, each containing terrifying divine power and the power to tear everything apart. Like a huge meat grinder, it crazily strangled the Sea Soul Beast involved! Suddenly, flesh and blood flew everywhere, roaring to the sky, and the offensive of the beast tide was stopped.

However, at the moment when High Priest was distracted and used "Surging Waves" to wipe out the beast tide--

Below, in the center of the abyssal fissure solidified by the magic of "Abyss Fixation", the cold aura that had been suppressed suddenly surged!

"Boom!"

The solidified "blue crystal" suddenly exploded! The huge body of Kraken, carrying a monstrous power and a condensed gray-black annihilation energy, broke out like an ancient evil demon breaking free from its shackles!

Its huge tentacles covered with a faint blue aura did not attack High Priest, but were like eight spears of death tearing apart the space, fiercely stabbing Coral Douluo and Conch Douluo who were struggling to maintain their formation and resist the beast tide, as well as Mu Yun, who had released the Thunder Dragon and whose aura had slightly fallen back!

"How dare you!" High Priest's eyes were about to burst, and he instantly withdrew the power of "Surging Waves". Sea God Scepter burst out with an unprecedented bright light, turning into a condensed blue-gold light shield, and instantly appeared in front of the three Coral Douluo. At the same time, the other hand volleyed towards Kraken's body!

"Old man, you've been fooled!" Kraken's cold voice sounded. The eight tentacles that seemed to be attacking the three of Coral Douluo suddenly changed direction and closed together at the moment they were about to touch the blue-gold light shield!

The gray-black annihilation energy condensed at the tips of the eight tentacles merged with a torrent of condensed dark blue venom ejected from its huge mouth, turning into a twisted and rotating gray, blue and black spiral of destruction that seemed to be capable of Devouring light. It did not attack the three people behind the light shield, but at a faster speed, it slammed into the powerful giant hand that High Priest had hurriedly grabbed for rescue!

It used the three Coral Douluo as bait to induce High Priest to distract from the rescue and take action hastily, but its real target from the beginning was - High Priest himself! In other words, it was to create an opportunity for High Priest, who was not in perfect condition, to challenge him head-on and use his strength to escape!

"Boom--!!!!!!!!!"

The spiral of destruction collided with the giant hand of divine power! An indescribable horrific explosion erupted in the deep sea! There was no sound, only the terrifying scene of pure energy annihilation and space shattering! An energy cavity with a diameter of more than a kilometer and an interior full of space cracks was instantly formed, swallowing up and annihilating the surrounding seawater, remaining sea soul beasts, and even part of the seabed rock formations in an instant!

High Priest's magical hand shattered under the impact of the spiral of destruction. He himself was shaken violently, groaned, and a trace of pale golden blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he suffered a small loss due to his hasty response. And Coral Douluo, Conch Douluo, and Mu Yun, even though they were protected by light shields, were so shocked by the aftermath of the horrific explosion that they were so close at hand that they flew backwards and the formation instantly collapsed.

In the light and chaos of the explosion, the huge body of Kraken, like Gui Mei, was shot backwards into the deeper, more chaotic and full of space turbulence in the depths of the submarine rift valley behind it, relying on the recoil of the collision, leaving only a series of cold thoughts that were gradually moving away and full of ridicule:

"Old man, are you satisfied with this 'return gift'? That's it for today. Next time... I will personally go to Sea God Island to visit you! Hahahahaha..."

Amidst the wild laughter, its breath quickly disappeared into the absolute darkness and chaos deep in the rift valley where even spiritual thoughts could not Penetration.

High Priest stabilized his body, wiped the bloodshot eyes from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the direction in which Kraken disappeared, with a terrifyingly gloomy face. He glanced at the frightened and embarrassed Coral Douluo trio, then looked at the messy sea around him with countless Sea Soul Beast wrecks floating around, and finally slowly closed his eyes.

The pursuit failed. Not only did they fail to kill Kraken, they almost suffered casualties again, and they themselves suffered some shocks. The strength, cunning and ruthlessness of this evil beast, as well as its use of the deep sea environment, far exceeded expectations.

"High Priest..." Coral Douluo and others flew back with shame and fear on their faces.

"Go back." High Priest opened his eyes, and his voice returned to calmness, but beneath that calmness was a deeper, colder anger and solemnity, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. After this battle, the devil should be dormant in the short term. But Sea God Island... must be fully prepared."
