Tang San leaped out of the sea and looked at the battle before him. Shock appeared in his eyes. The battle between Di Tian and Bo Saixi was almost evenly matched, and it was impossible to determine the winner in a short time.
What shocked Tang San was Jun Xuehan's battle against the four Titled Douluo. Jun Xuehan, with the strength of Eight-Ring Soul Douluo, was actually facing four Titled Douluo simultaneously, and was not at a disadvantage at all, even showing signs of being evenly matched.
Flowers of gunfire bloomed in mid-air, and several spear shadows crisscrossed among the four Titled Douluo. Soul Power and Elemental Energy collided continuously, generating ripples of energy that spread outwards, causing the seawater below to churn.
"Senior, I have obtained the Whale Pearl of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King." Tang San looked at the situation in front of him, said to Bo Saixi, and then raised the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, preparing to join the ranks of those besieging Jun Xuehan.
Just then, a sound like a whale's cry rang out, the sea surface churned violently, and a huge, demonic whale covered in magical runes emerged from the sea.
This demonic whale was almost the same size as the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Its powerful aura was released from its body without reservation, and its two huge eyes were filled with icy coldness.
"Demon Empress, you've come at the right time. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was just besieged by these humans and was severely injured and died." Di Tian said as he looked at the demon whale that had appeared.
"Humans, you deserve to die!" A cold, piercing voice came from the Demon Empress's mouth as he launched an attack directly at the humans in front of him.
Seeing the situation before her, Bo Saixi quickly retreated to create distance between herself Di Tian. After blocking one of the Demon Empress's attacks, she immediately said, "Don't get entangled. Let's go back to Sea God Island."
As she spoke, Bo Saixi reached out and grabbed Tang San, leading him toward Sea God Island. The remaining Titled Douluo followed without hesitation.
As Di Tian watched the departing person, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. After a moment's thought, he did not chase after them, but instead stood in front of Jun Xuehan, blocking the Demon Empress's attack.
"Demon Empress, this is the young master of our Star Dou Great Forest, Young Master of Soul Beasts. He is not with the humans from before. The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King sacrificed his Soul Ring and Soul Bone to the young master in his last moments." Di Tian looked at the Demon Empress and spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, the coldness in the Demon Empress's eyes lessened somewhat, but he still looked Jun Xuehan up and down before turning his gaze to Di Tian.
"Di Tian, how did you end up here? How exactly did the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King perish?" The Demon Empress looked at Di Tian in front of him and asked calmly.
"Young Master and I happened to be in the Demon Whale Sea Region looking for the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and we ended up encountering him being besieged. Originally, with our help, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King wouldn't have perished, but unexpectedly, a deity intervened, and with one strike, three Deep Sea Demonic Whale King came to their end. But in their last moments, the Demon Whale King chose to sacrifice itself to Young Master..." Di Tian looked at the Demon Empress and recounted the whole story to him.
Hearing Di Tian's words, the Demon Empress remained silent for a moment, his enormous eyes constantly shifting.
After a long while, the Demon Empress silently sank his body into the sea, and the entire Demon Whale Sea Region returned to calm.
On the calm sea, it was as if nothing had happened, but the bright red blood on the surface lingered for Jiujiu.
"Di Tian, I think with the Demon Empress's intervention just now, we could have kept them here." Jun Xuehan sheathed her Silver Dragon Spear, stood on the sea, and gazed silently in the direction Tang San had left.
"Young Master, a deity just made a move. Who can guarantee that a deity won't make a move here as well?" Di Tian shook his head slightly and said softly.
"The power of the gods is truly terrifying. With just one strike, they almost instantly killed the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King." Jun Xuehan nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Jun Xuehan was well aware of Di Tian's concerns. Although the Sea God didn't currently possess Super Divine Artifact, the thought of eliminating them would be incredibly easy. Even with Gu Yuena's stronghold, and even if Gu Yuena sensed the situation and used her Spatial Power to arrive, it would probably be too late.
Moreover, Gu Yuena cannot act arbitrarily on the continent, otherwise she would easily be noticed by the gods of the Divine Realm.
"Young Master, let's go back!" Di Tian said softly, turning his gaze away from the sea.
Their purpose in coming here was simply to obtain a Soul Ring. Now that they have achieved their goal, it is time for them to leave.
"Well, let's go back. But, Di Tian, what did you say to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King at the last moment? Why did it say that it hoped you wouldn't lie to it?" Jun Xuehan glanced at Di Tian beside her and asked with some curiosity.
"Young Master, I told the Deep Sea Demon Deep Sea Demonic Whale King that the day you become a god will be the day it is resurrected, and that it should sacrifice itself for you. After all, its life will be coming to an end then, so it might as well make a final contribution and pave a path for its own resurrection." Di Tian smiled and said casually.
"Resurrect it? Hmm, I understand." Jun Xuehan nodded slightly and readily agreed. After all, with the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and the Snow Empress already in the picture, adding another Deep Sea Demonic Whale King wouldn't make much difference.
After Jun Xuehan and Di Tian left the Demon Whale Sea Region, they discovered that the Sea Demon was still parked outside the Demon Whale Sea Region, as if it were waiting for them.
Upon seeing them, Captain Haider waved to them, signaling them to board the ship.
"Why didn't you leave?" Jun Xuehan asked, looking at Captain Haider as she reboarded the Sea Demon.
"Sir, what are you saying? Of course we're here waiting for you two gentlemen." Haider's eyes darted around as he spoke with a smile.
"Wait for us? What are you waiting for us for? I remember I've already paid." Jun Xuehan casually found a seat on the deck and sat down.
"Sir, we have principles. The reward you paid is very generous, including the cost of returning. Moreover, as long as we don't enter the Demon Whale Sea Region, it's quite safe. Waiting for you for a while won't hurt." Haider looked at Jun Xuehan and couldn't help but smile, putting on a very gentlemanly appearance.
"In that case, let's turn back and return to Vast Sea City." Jun Xuehan nodded slightly, glanced at Haider indifferently, then closed her eyes and sat down to rest.
