"Etc."
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was taken aback, the Sacrifice flames paused slightly, and its one eye looked at Xuan Ming with a puzzled expression.
A flicker of... fighting spirit ignited in Xuan Ming's icy blue eyes.
"Before the Sacrifice," Xuan Ming slowly raised the Blood Spear in his hand, a dark red Slaughter Soul Ring slowly rotating around him, "Fight me first."
Not only the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but also Gu Yuena, Di Tian, Snow Empress and others were taken aback.
Xuan Ming continued, his tone calm yet undeniably assertive. "I want to test just how strong I am now."
His gaze swept over his Blood Spear, sensing the Divine Power of the Half-Step Divine Consciousness within him, the evolved Slaughter Domain, and the even deeper Colorless Domain.
"Others might not be suitable, but you are perfect."
A flicker of surprise flashed in the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's enormous single eye, which was then replaced by a long-suppressed rage!
This human not only forced it to Sacrifice, but also used it as a tool to test its strength before it died?!
Utter disgrace!
But in an instant, this rage transformed into a ferocious pleasure!
"Good! Good! Good!" The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King uttered three "good"s in succession, his voice filled with deep-seated hatred and madness. "Human! Since you've chosen your own death, I will grant your wish! Even if you are destined to die today, I will make you taste what true despair is!"
Xuan Ming didn't care at all, and turned to Gu Yuena and the others, saying, "You all step back."
Gu Yuena gave Xuan Ming a deep look, asked no further questions, and her silver-purple figure floated backward first.
Di Tian, Zi JI, and the others immediately followed.
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and doubt in each other's eyes, but they obediently stepped back, leaving the vast sea area to the two facing off.
They also wanted to see just how powerful Xuan Ming was, having absorbed the Million-Year Soul Ring Divine Power the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and reached the Half-Step Divine Consciousness realm! Could he contend with this nearly million-year-old ocean overlord?
Once everyone had retreated to a safe distance, Xuan Ming stopped talking.
With a thought, the Ice and Fire Divine Crown on his forehead began to glow!
There was no earth-shattering display; he simply took a step forward with utter calmness, while simultaneously pressing his left hand downwards in a half-hearted gesture.
Ultimate Ice - Absolute Ice Seal!
Buzz--!
An indescribable, extreme chill suddenly erupted silently from Xuan Ming's center! It wasn't just ordinary low temperature; it was Absolute Zero, as if even the rules of nature and time themselves were frozen!
Click--!!!
Starting from Xuan Ming's feet, the sea surface within a radius of several thousand meters, along with the seawater thousands of meters deep below, instantly transformed into an enormous, crystal-clear, and even harder Ice Domain than ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing within a hundredth of a second!
The once turbulent sea of Bolin is now as smooth and still as a mirror! Under the sunlight, it reflects a chilling light!
Even the massive, mountain-like body of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was frozen solid in a huge block of ice by this sudden and terrifying Ice Seal!
Its power to stir up the ocean was instantly suppressed in the face of this absolute law of freezing!
"What?!" The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King roared in horror, its single eye filled with disbelief!
It struggled desperately, but the Ice Seal was extremely tough, and even with its nearly million years of cultivation, it couldn't break free for a while!
In the distance, the crowd that had retreated all paled!
Snow Empress's ethereal eyes suddenly narrowed, and she gasped in shock, "This... this Ice Seal power..."
As the rulers of the Far North, their control over ice was unparalleled! But at this moment, they could clearly feel that Xuan Ming's power to Ice Seal thousands of meters of ocean in an instant—its icy nature, its freezing intensity, its vast range... even surpassed their own!
How is that possible?! He's just a human being!
A hint of surprise flashed in Di Tian's and Gu Yuena's eyes.
Xuan Ming's strength has increased far beyond their expectations!
This Half-Step Divine Consciousness's Divine Power and control over the elements of heaven and earth have undergone a qualitative change!
Chapter 331 Ocean Bomb
"Roar--!!!"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King let out a deafening roar, unleashing its terrifying cultivation accumulated over nearly a million years!
A deep purple light erupted from its Ice Seal body like a volcanic eruption, and the incredibly hard Ice Domain emitted a series of cracking sounds as it struggled to withstand the pressure!
Boom--!!!
The massive ice block that bound it shattered with a deafening roar, sending countless shards of ice hurtling outwards like cannonballs!
The massive body of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King finally broke free, its single eye filled with rage and a hint of fear.
It dared not be careless in the slightest; this human's methods were far too bizarre!
However, the moment it broke free from the Ice Seal, Xuan Ming's attack came immediately!
He raised his right hand, and the power representing the Fire Dragon King on the Ice and Fire Divine Crown suddenly shone brightly! A crimson fireball, only the size of a fist, radiating a blinding light that was impossible to look at directly, and seemingly containing flowing liquid flames, instantly condensed in his palm!
The moment the fireball appeared, the temperature of the surrounding space soared dramatically, and even the air began to distort!
"Go."
Xuan Ming flicked his finger, and the tiny "sun" appeared like a shooting star, ignoring the distance in space, instantly appearing above the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King it had just broken free from, and then... crashed down!
There was no sound.
The moment the fireball touched the sea surface, it seemed as if all sound was swallowed up and annihilated by the extreme heat!
Immediately afterwards--
boom!!!!!!!!!
An indescribably horrific explosion has occurred!
A blinding white light instantly engulfed everything! Centered on the point of impact of the fireball, the vast seawater below was not pushed aside, but was instantly vaporized and evaporated by the unimaginable heat!
A massive, bottomless hole, nearly a kilometer in diameter, has appeared on the surface of the sea!
The terrifying high-temperature shockwave spread wildly in a ring shape in all directions, causing the seawater to boil and steam to rise into the sky wherever it passed! It was as if a temporary "waterless forbidden zone" had been created in the ocean!
The pupils of everyone watching from afar, including Di Tian and Gu Yuena, contracted sharply!
The power of this attack far surpasses the ninth Soul Skill of most Titled Douluo! The degree of energy concentration and the Destruction it unleashed are simply terrifying! Was that really fire? It was clearly a condensed core of the sun!
Although the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King avoided being directly hit thanks to its powerful cultivation and timely evasion, the aftershocks of the explosion and the terrifying high temperature still caused a burning pain to its massive body, and its single eye was filled with horror!
Humanity's mastery of ice and fire has reached such an unbelievable level!
Just as the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was stunned by the terrifying fireball explosion, Xuan Ming's attack followed immediately!
A flash of lightning appeared in his eyes, and his left hand suddenly pressed down on the huge hole in the seawater that had been blasted out below!
Boom!
A massive, eerie bolt of Thunderclap, its colors a mixture of blood red, dark purple, and deathly white, seemed to have come from the deepest hell, crashing down with deadly force and striking precisely into the bottom of the temporarily dry cave!
But the target of this Thunderclap was not the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King itself!
Just as the Thunderclap was about to strike the seawater, Xuan Ming hurled his Blood Spear with his right hand!
The Blood Spear, though launched later, arrived first, like a streak of crimson lightning, instantly disappearing into the seawater at the bottom of the cave!
The next moment, a Destruction three-colored Thunderclap struck the tip of the Blood Spear!
Buzz--!!!!
The Blood Spear trembled violently, as if it had become the perfect conductor. The terrifying power of Thunderclap did not explode, but instead, centered on the Blood Spear, it transformed into countless fine, wildly leaping lightning snakes, instantly spreading into the surrounding seawater!
Sizzle sizzle sizzle--!!!!
A chilling hum of electricity erupted! Visible blue-purple lightning spread rapidly through the seawater like a spiderweb, instantly covering an area of about a kilometer in radius!
This terrifying power of Thunderclap did not directly attack the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, but instead frantically... electrolyzed the seawater!
laugh--!!!
Large amounts of hydrogen and oxygen were forcibly separated from the seawater by the violent Thunderclap, mixing with boiling water vapor to form an extremely dangerous special area filled with explosive gases around the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, situated in the center of this electrolyzed sea area, immediately felt extreme discomfort and a strong sense of crisis! Its massive body even felt waves of numbness!
Although it didn't understand what it was, its biological instincts told it that it was extremely dangerous!
It wanted to escape that area, but Xuan Ming's Divine Power, like an invisible spider web, had already locked onto it!
Xuan Ming hovered in mid-air, his icy blue eyes coldly watching the death zone below, filled with hydrogen, oxygen, high-temperature steam, and raging Thunderclap, and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King trapped within it.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, finding itself in this electrolyzed sea area filled with dangerous gases, instinctively sensed a deadly threat. It frantically channeled its Soul Power, trying to break through this death zone.
But would Xuan Ming give it that chance?
The Spiritual Domain, the Colorless Domain, and the Ice and Fire Bipolar Domain —all three realms are fully activated!
An invisible yet heavy force suddenly descended, enveloping the entire area below like a canopy!
In this electrolyzed sea area, space seemed to freeze instantly. The violently leaping lightning bolts, the boiling and churning steam, and the hydrogen and oxygen being continuously separated from the seawater by electrolysis... all suddenly slowed down several times! It was as if they had sunk into a viscous swamp!
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King felt a tightness all over its body, as if it were bound by invisible shackles, and its movements became extremely sluggish. It roared in shock and anger, struggling desperately, but it was unable to break free from this all-around suppression immediately!
" The Ice and Fire Bipolar Domain - The Abyss of Extreme Cold!"
Xuan Ming held his hands in a gesture of reverence, his left hand holding the Ultimate Ice and his right hand the Ultimate Fire. The two diametrically opposed forces converged and collided in front of him, forming a strange area of balance!
An indescribable, absolute chill, seemingly capable of devouring all heat, suddenly spread out from him, precisely enveloping the death zone below!
Sizzle sizzle--!!!
An astonishing scene unfolded!
In that area, the water vapor, which had been boiling and churning at extremely high temperatures due to the fireball explosion and Thunderclap electrolysis, cooled and condensed at a visible speed the moment it came into contact with this absolute cold!
Under the combined effects of the Colorless Domain's suppression and the power of the ice pole, the temperature plummeted at an irrational speed!
The extremely active and flammable hydrogen and oxygen molecules that were originally present in the seawater and air were forcibly compressed and condensed under the rapidly decreasing temperature and strong pressure!
Sizzle... Click...
A faint condensing sound was heard.
Under the horrified gaze of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, countless pale blue, translucent, ice-like snowflake-like tiny crystals of solid hydrogen and solid oxygen began to rapidly condense on the surface of the seawater around it, and even in the air!
These solid mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen, under the absolute suppression of the Colorless Domain, maintain an extremely unstable and fragile equilibrium, as if a single spark could trigger a cataclysmic explosion!
This death zone instantly transformed into an extremely unstable super bomb filled with highly compressed explosive material!
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, located in the center of this area, felt an unprecedented and deadly threat! Its huge single eye was filled with terror, and its biological instincts screamed wildly, making it desperately want to escape!
"Mental Shock - Absolute Zero!"
The instant hundreds of tons of solid hydrogen-oxygen crystals filled a radius of hundreds of meters around it, a cold light flashed in Xuan Ming's icy blue eyes! The platinum Million-Year Soul Ring shone brightly!
An invisible and intangible Divine Power, yet containing an extreme, icy will that could freeze thought and solidify time, instantly traversed space, ignoring all physical defenses, and directly pierced the core of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Soul Core!
"Ugh--!"
The massive body of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King suddenly stiffened, the light in its single eye instantly froze, its thoughts seemed to be completely frozen, and all its movements and the circulation of its Soul Power came to an absolute halt in that instant!
"I don't know how powerful this move is either, so... good luck, don't die."
Xuan Ming turned around and disappeared into the dark vortex behind him. The next instant, the Colorless Domain suppression force that maintained the fragile balance of the solid hydrogen-oxygen crystal suddenly vanished!
At the same time, a tiny, yet extremely hot spark appeared at his fingertips and was then flicked into the area filled with solid hydrogen and oxygen crystals.
Having lost its suppression and regained its activity, it encountered that spark again...
Rumble--!!!
A terrifying explosion, beyond words, has occurred!
That was no longer an explosion of Soul Power, but the release of the purest and most violent chemical energy! It was Destruction comparable to the power of heaven and earth, brought about by the instantaneous transformation of material form!
A blinding white light, ten or even a hundred times more intense than the previous fireball explosion, instantly engulfed everything within a radius of several thousand meters! Sound seemed to be completely annihilated, leaving only the purest, most Destruction light expanding!
A terrifying crater, several times larger than the hole created by the previous fireball, appeared on the sea surface. The seawater beneath it was not displaced, but rather directly annihilated and vaporized by the unimaginable heat and shockwave of the instantaneous eruption!
The terrifying shockwave spread wildly in a spherical shape in all directions, distorting space and causing everything to collapse wherever it passed!
"Awooo--!!!!"
