Not far behind it, a terrifying giant whale, its massive form blotting out the sky, was breaking through the waves in pursuit.
The giant whale possessed only a single eye, its entire body radiating a suffocating aura of evil, while deep purple lightning danced wildly around it.
A casual flick of its tail was enough to whip up tsunamis hundreds of meters high across the sea surface.
This was none other than the million-year-level Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!
In the footage, Great White Shark was being chased with nowhere to run and nowhere to hide, her body already covered in over a dozen wounds deep enough to expose bone.
Every time the Demonic Whale King spat out a high-pressure water jet, it tore a massive chunk of flesh from Great White Shark.
Blood stained a vast expanse of the sea; Great White Shark could only flee for her life, having absolutely no room to fight back.
Seeing this scene, several bright lines of text immediately drifted across the edge of the Sky Screen.
"This is what you call support-style slaying?"
"Isn't this just being chased and bitten one-sidedly? I could do that too!"
"She's literally just acting as bait. Does this Sky Screen have some massive misunderstanding of what a support is?"
In the Star Dou Great Forest.
The various fierce beasts watched Great White Shark, who only possessed one hundred thousand years of cultivation in the footage, all unable to close their mouths in astonishment.
King of Ten Thousand Demons flicked his branches, his face full of bewilderment.
"The time in this footage isn't that far from the present. What kind of fortuitous encounter could this Great White Shark have possibly had to jump from one hundred thousand years to four hundred and ninety thousand years in such a short time?"
"This cultivation speed defies all logic; even eating heavenly treasures every single day shouldn't make it this fast!"
Xiong Jun watched the wretchedly fleeing Great White Shark in the footage, the look of disdain on his face growing even heavier.
He slapped his chest hard and shouted loudly at his surrounding subordinates.
"Look at that! What did this King tell you!"
"This is just a stray dog that only knows how to run! Being chased by someone else like a pathetic grandson!"
"Preposterous! Is a piece of trash like this worthy of riding on this King's head? The Sky Screen must have ranked this wrong!"
The footage continued to advance.
Just as Great White Shark was exhausted and on the verge of being swallowed whole by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
A sudden change occurred!
At the edge of the horizon, a dazzling, brilliant rainbow-colored light suddenly tore through the thick, dark clouds.
Without any warning, the light descended from the sky, slamming straight into the arrogant Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
There was no earth-shattering explosion.
There was no flashy collision of energy.
It was merely a beam of light.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, which had been radiating a terrifying million-year-level pressure, was pinned down as if by an immovable divine mountain.
Its massive body was instantly suppressed against the surface of the sea, unable to move even a single fin.
The once-arrogant single eye was now filled with terror, and even the surrounding lightning was forced back into its body by the rainbow light.
The barrage at the edge of the light screen exploded instantly.
"What is this rainbow-colored light!"
"Suppressing a million-year soul beast? It didn't even have a chance to resist!"
"What kind of existence is the one who struck? This is too exaggerated! Could a god have descended?"
In the footage, the suppressed Deep Sea Demonic Whale King opened its blood-red maw and let out a shrill cry for help.
"Lord Sea God! Save me! Quickly, save me!"
"I have collected so much power of faith for you in the deep sea; you cannot just stand by and watch me die!"
This voice, accompanied by thick Soul Power, spread across the entire sea area.
Hearing these words, the countless living beings watching the Sky Screen were shocked once again.
Various discussions flashed rapidly across the barrage.
"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is actually begging the Sea God for help?"
"This beast is a notoriously evil soul beast; who knows how many innocent lives it has devoured? How could it have a connection to the Sea God?"
"No wonder it could live for a million years; it turns out it had the Sea God backing it, doing the Sea God's dirty work!"
"But since Lord Sea God's name has been brought up, this round is definitely settled. The Sea God will absolutely step in to sanction this mysterious person who released the rainbow light!"
Those sea soul masters and coastal residents who viewed the Sea God as their supreme faith stretched their necks and clenched their hands, anticipating the descent of the great god in their hearts.
However, time in the footage ticked away second by second.
Apart from the howling wind and torrential rain, no divine aura appeared in that sea area at all.
The Sea God simply did not show himself!
Even though the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King screamed until his throat was raw, the Sea God still offered no response, as if he had simply vanished.
The barrage of comments fell into an eerie, momentary silence.
Immediately following, an even more frenzied discussion erupted.
"What's going on? Why isn't the Sea God coming out?"
"Could he be afraid? Is Lord Sea God chickening out?"
"Impossible! How could a god be afraid? It must be that Lord Sea God feels this evil soul beast deserves its fate and doesn't want to dirty his hands!"
Though they said this, many people felt their resolve wavering significantly.
Those who devoutly believed in the gods watched the helpless, abandoned Whale King on the screen, feeling something solid within their hearts beginning to crumble.
That sensation of a shattered Dao heart left them ashen-faced, with some even collapsing to the ground.
At the end of the footage.
That rainbow-colored light suddenly contracted, transforming into a towering, iridescent giant sword.
The giant sword descended without the slightest obstruction.
A dull, thunderous boom echoed out.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's body, vast as a mountain, was cleaved into two perfectly flat halves.
Scarlet blood instantly dyed the surrounding hundred miles of ocean red, and a pillar of blood shot into the sky, staining half the Sky Screen.
A peerless, million-year-level fierce beast had been slain just like that, clean and swift.
The entire image came to an abrupt end, slowly dissipating into the air.
The barrage was left filled with nothing but question marks and exclamations.
"Who exactly was it that attacked?"
"To kill a million-year soul beast in one strike, even making the Sea God afraid to show his face—this must be another, even more powerful god!"
"My god, there's actually an existence on the Douluo Continent that even the Sea God dares not provoke!"
"No wonder Xiao Bai could make it to ninth place; it turns out she's clinging to such a massive thigh!"
Star Dou Great Forest.
The gathering place of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear clan.
A Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with tens of thousands of years of cultivation approached Xiong Jun, fawning over him with a face full of smiles.
"Calm your anger, Great King. No matter what backing that fish has, it certainly isn't as formidable as you, my King!"
"You have now fused with the Behemoth Left Arm Bone; that is the power of a divine beast. If a fight really broke out, you could definitely tear that fish and the guy behind it into shreds!"
Xiong Jun had been staring blankly at the Sky Screen, but upon hearing this, he spun around violently.
He swung his unmutated right paw, landing a solid slap across his subordinate's face.
With a crisp "crack," the giant bear of several tens of thousands of years was sent flying, crashing through several towering trees before coming to a stop.
Xiong Jun swallowed hard, a dense layer of cold sweat already seeping from his forehead.
His heart was in his throat, and even his voice lacked the arrogant bravado he had possessed just moments ago.
"Damn it, you idiot, are you trying to get this King killed!"
