Sea Soul Beasts Attack! Demonic Nightmare Octopus!
"Don't worry, Aunt Leng, I value my life very much."
Gu Yue watched this scene quietly from the side, her hand gently stroking under her sleeve.
"Waaah--"
The deep sound of the ship's horn echoed throughout the entire Skysea City port.
The Soul Tool Thruster at the bottom of the ocean liner roared to life, spewing out powerful airflow that propelled the massive hull slowly away from its berth, cutting through the waves towards the boundless blue sea.
The first ten days or so of the voyage were relatively dull and peaceful.
Besides his daily cultivation, Lu Guan would occasionally lean on the railing to enjoy the sea breeze, while Ye Xinglan would move a small stool and sit not far away, diligently taking notes in her notebook, which was practically devoid of any meaningful writing.
Gu Yue and Na'er occupied the seats on either side of Lu Guan. The three girls didn't exchange a single word, and none of them were willing to go back to the cabin first.
Caught in the middle, Lu Guan simply decided to avoid the trouble and, after finishing his horse stance practice each day, would sneak off to the restaurant to freeload.
Until the fleet completely left the continental shelf and entered the deep waters of the Endless Sea.
That day, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened.
Dark, heavy clouds pressed down on the sea, making it seem suffocating. The once calm waves began to surge violently, crashing against the metal hull of the giant ship with a dull thud.
On the deck, Lu Guan, who was practicing his martial arts, suddenly stopped.
Something's not right!
The surroundings were eerily quiet; even the seagulls that usually followed the stern of the boat in search of food were nowhere to be seen.
The air throughout the entire sea was filled with a suffocating, fishy stench.
"Buzz--!"
The alarm on top of the giant ship suddenly went off, and a piercing red light flashed wildly on the deck.
"All personnel on high alert! A large horde of Sea Soul Beast is approaching!"
"All passengers, return to your cabins immediately! Activate the highest level of protective shields!"
Buzz!
A layer of pale golden, semi-transparent Soul Tool Shield rose from the edge of the giant ship, encasing the entire vessel inside.
Gu Yue stood on the other side, her brows slightly furrowed.
The commotion beneath the surface is enormous.
Lu Guan braced himself against the metal railing, leaning half his body out to look down.
The once deep blue seawater turned completely blackish-brown, and dozens of grayish-white shadows, each over ten meters long, darted through the water at high speed, breaking through the waves!
Their dorsal fins stand tall, and their gaping mouths are filled with three rows of serrated teeth.
"It's a swarm of Demon Soul Great White Shark!"
Chaos erupted on the deck.
A dozen or so Soul Master who were escorting the ship rushed to the railing, their various Soul Ring lighting up.
"There are more than thirty Ten-Thousand-Year Demon Soul Great White Shark."
"They usually hunt alone or in small groups in the deep sea, so why would they ram merchant ships in groups?"
"Who cares why? These bastards are here to dismantle the ship!"
Boom!
A Demon Soul Great White Shark, over twenty meters long, leaped out of the sea and slammed heavily onto the pale golden Soul Tool Shield.
Ripples spread across the surface of the protective shield.
Na'er swayed and crashed into Lu Guan, grabbing his waist tightly.
"Brother, the boat is capsizing!"
Lu Guan looked down at the girl.
Are you still pretending?
Gu Yue stood motionless beside her, glancing down at the unfathomable depths of the sea. "It's not just these small fry."
There are two more big guys underwater.
"Boom--!"
Two water columns, tens of meters high, suddenly exploded on the sea surface a hundred meters away!
From the water column on the left, a giant white shark, twice the size of the sharks from before, soared into the sky.
It has a strange golden rhomboid scale on its forehead, and the air is shaken out when its two rows of serrated teeth bite together.
Ten thousand years, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King!
On the right, a massive, chillingly dark blue shadow slowly emerged from the water.
It was a giant whale over fifty meters long, its entire body covered in dark blue bony armor, its single eye flashing with a bloodthirsty red light. Just by surfacing to breathe, the seawater it pushed caused the ocean liner to shift sideways by tens of meters!
One hundred thousand years ago, Deep Sea Demon Whale!
"Oh my god..."
"Two 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast?! Aren't the Demon Soul Great White Shark and the Deep Sea Demon Whale mortal enemies? How come they're mixed up together?!"
Lu Guan gripped the railing to steady himself, his brows furrowing.
Oh my god, Tang Wulin secretly boarded the ship?
"Presumptuous!"
A loud shout came from inside the cabin, and three powerful auras soared into the sky.
Three elderly men dressed in the robes of the Spirit Pagoda elders stepped through the air, their feet adorned with nine rings consisting of two yellow, two purple, and five black rings!
The burly, bearded elder in the center clapped his hands, unleashing his Martial Soul Blazing Lion, and instantly activated his Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar, transforming into a fire lion over ten meters tall, hovering in mid-air.
"Two mere beasts, each a hundred thousand years old, dare to block my Spirit Pagoda's ship!"
"Elder Liu, go and stop that great white shark! Elder Chen, come with me and kill this demonic whale!"
"Good!"
The other two Titled Douluo unleashed their power simultaneously, and three Title Douluos-level pressures crashed onto the sea surface without reservation.
The Spirit Pagoda's recent inspection of its branch on the Star Luo Continent was accompanied by a considerable number of powerful figures, including three publicly known Titled Douluo!
Seeing the three Titled Douluo make their move, the panicked guards on the deck immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"With three Titled Douluo in charge and the main cannon of the giant ship providing support, there shouldn't be any problems."
Lu Guan listened but disagreed. He stared at the unusually calm black water area between the two 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast, and the hairs on the back of his head stood up.
wrong.
After the two 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast surfaced, they showed no intention of continuing their attack. Instead, they stopped on the left and right, voluntarily clearing the middle of the channel.
The way they were behaving was exactly like two gatekeepers waiting for the main character to appear!
Gu Yue moved half a step in front of Lu Guan, blocking most of his body.
Just as the Third Elder of the Spirit Pagoda was about to chant his Soul Skill.
Glug glug--
Suddenly, dense bubbles rose from the seawater between the two 100,000-year-old Sea Soul Beast.
Immediately afterwards, the entire sea turned completely black.
It wasn't the darkness of dark clouds overhead, but something beneath the sea that swallowed up all the surrounding light!
Eight thick, purplish-black tentacles, as thick as the stone pillars of a palace, silently emerged from the sea and rested on the Soul Tool Shield of the ocean liner.
The surface of the tentacles was covered with countless pale white suckers, and in the very center of each sucker was a bright red eyeball that kept rolling around!
"Snap!"
The highest-level Soul Tool Shield, which was said to be able to withstand the full-force attack of Titled Douluo for half an hour, shattered into countless points of light under the pressure of these eight tentacles!
"Puff--!"
Before the three Scarlet Lion Douluo in mid-air could make a move, a fierce and malevolent pressure mixed with mental pollution crashed towards them.
The three Titled Douluo simultaneously coughed up a mouthful of blood, their Martial Soul Avatar instantly disintegrated, and they plummeted from mid-air like dumplings being dropped into a pot, crashing heavily onto the deck!
"What?!"
Beneath the surface of the sea, a purplish-black soft head, the size of a small hill, slowly rose.
Demonic Nightmare Octopus!
