Deep Sea Demonic Whale King
"Whoosh."
Yu Tianshuang, stepping on the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi, flew rapidly across the boundless blue sea, like a streak of blue light. Unfortunately, compared to the endless sea, the human figure was still too small.
"Bo Saixi... it's interesting, really. I just killed the man who had a crush on her not long ago. I wonder if she'll thank me..."
Putting away the secret letter that Bibi Dong had specially sent, Yu Tianshuang thought of that legendary figure from the Clear Sky Sect, whose body was covered in blood and slaughter. Who could have imagined that such a peerless powerhouse, a level 99 Limit Douluo was known as one of the two peaks of the Soul Master World along with Qian Daoliu, would actually be killed by a newcomer who had only recently entered the Titled Douluo?
Although he wasn't just any newly promoted Titled Douluo, it's important to understand that after becoming Titled Douluo, each level of Soul Power increase represents a world of difference, especially after level 95. Looking back now, he was quite lucky. He had to thank the blood-red giant sword that corrupted Tang Chen's mind; otherwise, if he were to face the strongest person below the level of a god, he wouldn't have much confidence in winning.
"Waaah~"
Just as Yu Tianshuang was idly traveling and lost in thought, a series of deep whale calls came from the sea beneath his feet. This low sound, containing fluctuations of Soul Power, quickly attracted his attention. Yu Tianshuang looked down at the sea and saw that it was about two or three hundred meters long through the azure water. Its enormous size made the reflective sea surface turn completely black.
"This surge of Soul Power... goodness, it's another Sea Soul Beast that's been around for countless millennia..."
After sensing the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from the giant whale beneath his feet, Yu Tianshuang was certain that it was even slightly stronger than the strongest Soul Beast he had ever seen, the Snow Empress, whose cultivation had reached 700,000.
"Thump..."
Just as Yu Tianshuang was sighing, the giant whale beneath his feet suddenly burst out of the sea, opening its abyss-like Abyss, attempting to swallow Yu Tianshuang whole. Although he never expected this giant whale Soul Beast to suddenly attack him for no reason, fortunately, he was flying at a considerable altitude. Even in his haste, ice mist swirled beneath his feet, forming a circle of tiny white seven-star arrays. He used the "Ice Shadow Seven Star Steps - Sumeru" technique to instantly teleport to the high sky.
Are you sick?
This was Yu Tianshuang's first encounter with Sea Soul Beast that actively attacked humans. Although most Soul Beast on land would actively attack humans, it was said that most Sea Soul Beast were gentle in temperament. Moreover, although he was flying all the way, he did not deliberately hide the aura of Titled Douluo on his body, so Soul Beast of ordinary cultivation would not provoke him.
"You asked for it, so don't blame me. It's just what I was thinking; I should add Soul Ring to my Heavenly Frost Cold Qi anyway. Since you've come looking for me, I'm not in a hurry to go find Bo Saixi!"
Yu Tianshuang had made many plans for the secret mission set up by Bibi Dong, including a plan that required force to complete. According to the information Huo Wu had given him before leaving, Sea God Island was not an easy place to talk to. In addition, as the representative of the Spirit Hall Empire, he had heard about the friction between Sea God Island and the Spirit Hall many years ago. However, since this Sea Soul Beast had actually provoked him, he couldn't be blamed.
"Ta-da!"
Taking advantage of the moment before the giant whale Soul Beast's massive body had completely submerged into the sea, Yu Tianshuang instantly unleashed several icy blue sword energies. However, when the sword energies struck it, even through its fragile giant mouth, a crisp metallic clang still rang out, causing Yu Tianshuang to frown.
"Such strong defense! Although I only unleashed the sword energy hastily, even my ordinary attacks now reach the strength of Ultimate Ice. In addition, with the Seven Kill Sword Intent now unified, even without consuming Divine Power to actively activate it, the Seven Kill Sword Intent has already been integrated into my ordinary attacks. Although I anticipated that the attack might be ineffective, I didn't expect that hitting its mouth would leave it completely unharmed. No wonder it dared to attack me after I released my aura; it has some strength."
"Pfft pfft..."
After the giant whale Sea Soul Beast submerged into the sea, its two holes, like volcano craters, spewed out streams of high-temperature air, causing the sea surface to distort for a moment.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was somewhat surprised to find that it hadn't swallowed the tiny human in the sky to become nourishment for its path to godhood. Although the human's attack hadn't caused it any harm, it had thoroughly enraged it. As the supreme ruler of the ocean, no human or Soul Beast had dared to attack it since the Sea God's departure.
"Such speed..."
Yu Tianshuang unleashed a barrage of attacks, but the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, hidden beneath the surface, nimbly dodged them all. This made him marvel at how, despite its enormous size, the Deep Sea Soul Beast's speed and agility were completely disproportionate to its size...
"In that case, Ice Heaven Frost Sword - Momentary Splendor!"
At this moment, Yu Tianshuang watched the huge black shadow swirling in the sea beneath her feet. Her Divine Power was highly concentrated, and her azure Soul Power condensed on the sword of Heavenly Frost Cold Qi. Her eyes also turned icy white, Extreme Ice Eternal Frost Eye were now fully activated.
"Now!"
Like a divine punishment descending from the heavens, with a flash of light in Yu Tianshuang's eyes, the ice-blue longsword, imbued with unparalleled power, stabbed down at the giant whale that was constantly swimming beneath the sea surface. In terms of speed and penetrating power, the "Momentary Splendor Bloom" sword was undoubtedly the strongest among the Ice Heaven Frost Sword. Combined with the full force of the Greedy Wolf Sword Intent, it truly was a matter of a split second. A pillar of ice-blue sword energy instantly sank into the sea surface and struck the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
"Awoooooo!!!"
Even the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, with nearly a million years of cultivation, was no match for Yu Tianshuang's full-force attack. Even its most prized defensive capabilities were as fragile as paper. The sword energy, nearly a hundred meters long, pierced down from the sky. Although it didn't completely penetrate the whale due to its enormous size, Yu Tianshuang had been preparing this attack for a long time. It pierced through the whale's closed eye and penetrated deep into its body.
"The speed has slowed down. It seems that even Sea Soul Beast with such a massive size and cultivation level cannot withstand the Ultimate Power..."
Hearing the painful screams coming from the sea below, Yu Tianshuang couldn't help but smile. Serves you right for coming here to cause trouble. But it's alright, I'll soon relieve your pain and make you the first Soul Ring of the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi!
However, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is Sea Soul Beast with nearly a million years of cultivation. Although the wound pierced by Yu Tianshuang was frozen by the power of Ultimate Ice and could not heal, compared to its enormous size, it could only be considered a minor injury.
Its last remaining eye darted around, and its 300,000 years of combat experience told it that it couldn't fight the human on the surface of the sea or in the sky. It had to find a way to drag him into the sea. Once it got the human into the sea, killing him would be a piece of cake.
"Heh, you've gotten smarter. Soul Beast that's been around for hundreds of thousands of years does have some intelligence after all; you actually managed to escape. But did you think I couldn't catch you once you dived deeper into the sea?"
Yu Tianshuang watched as the giant whale- Sea Soul Beast, after taking his attack, let out another mournful howl before diving down. He curled his lip and said disdainfully.
"Something's not right... It didn't run away, it's still circling, why is that?"
Just as Yu Tianshuang was about to fly down from the sky to give chase, his keen combat senses quickly detected that something was wrong. The Sea Soul Beast was not diving down to escape; it was still circling around him on the seabed.
"Such strong suction..."
Even though Yu Tianshuang was confident that he could kill the Sea Soul Beast even in the sea, its home turf, he still became cautious. Something was definitely amiss. He clearly knew the difference in strength, but the Sea Soul Beast was still not running away. It must have some trump card up its sleeve.
"So, that's what they were planning..."
Looking at the enormous vortex gradually forming beneath her feet, nearly a kilometer in diameter, and the irresistible suction that seemed to draw everything in the world into it, Yu Tianshuang understood.
"So you're trying to drag me into the sea, huh? While I'd love to fight you in the ocean, my greatest pleasure right now is shattering your faint hopes!"
Seeing the enormous whirlpool gradually forming beneath his feet, constantly pulling at his body, Yu Tianshuang suddenly raised his hand. Instantly, a beautiful, holy-looking woman appeared on the sea surface—an enlarged version of the Snow Empress.
Eighth Soul Skill: The Heavenly Snow Woman's Redemption!
As Yu Tianshuang finished speaking, the Snow Empress's beautiful illusory figure clasped her hands together as if in devout prayer. Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and with the appearance of the snowflakes, the originally azure sea surface, covering an area of nearly a thousand meters, was transformed into an icy blue world. The moment the first snowflake fell on the sea surface, this thousand-meter stretch of sea surface began to freeze over in a single spot.
The vortex, filled with deadly suction, turned into solid ice, losing its function. But this was not the end. One meter, ten meters, and finally, from the surface of the sea to the seabed, a solid ice layer a hundred meters thick was formed. With her current strength, Yu Tianshuang's Eighth Soul Skill created a snow and ice world with a range of a thousand meters and a thickness of a hundred meters.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's small eyes, relative to its enormous size, were now wide open. Having lived for over 300,000 years by devouring other Soul Beast and humans to increase its cultivation, it was extremely sensitive to the aura of Soul Master and Soul Beast. Sensing the aura emanating from Yu Tianshuang in the sky, used to intimidate other Soul Beast, it initially thought that this was just an ordinary Titled Douluo, someone it could eat to increase its cultivation.
But looking at the solid ice above its head, which was a thousand meters long and a hundred meters thick, it realized that it was all formed from the Ultimate Ice within its body that was preventing its wounds from healing. This was the second time it had felt powerless against a human; the first time was when the Sea God had not yet fully become a god.
Having lived for over 300,000 years, it knew it was no match for the human. Fortunately, while his attack had neutralized its vortex, it had also stopped the human's pursuit. Well, it had already waited so long, a little more wouldn't hurt.
Just as it was thinking this and about to turn around and dive deeper into the sea, a sense of danger suddenly came. The human suddenly emerged from the solid ice on the seabed, and a deep blue sword aura was thrown from the long sword in his hand, which slammed into its huge body with a "boom".
