Tang San once again

Vast Ocean

Fan Lin's training place.

It has been three days since he returned from Star Luo Empire. He was training his body and soul power in the depths of 15,000 metres as this was the lowest point here.

His training was going normally. He was in deep meditation when he sensed godly energy. It was the same energy signature as Tang San's. He had a certain Deja vu this time.

' Should I go or not? Well, there are not that many people who can harm me. So lets go and check it out. It has already been a long time since I last went outside.'

[ He was outside just three days ago but ignore his sarcasm.]

' It has already been five months, the federation should have also stopped searching for me now.'

Fan Lin teleported towards the location as he flew from that route last time. He was still in the spirit Abyss realm and that's why he wasn't able to sense where Wulin was.

Fan Lin mostly used energy signatures and godly energy to locate a person to placate this problem.

He was not able to find Wulin using his energy senses as the sea had covered his aura except the aura that covered Wulin could be easily sensed by him due to their density.

They made up a dome of water energies around him. What a nice way of trying to hide him. Even a Limit Douluo can sense the fluctuations of the water energies at that fixed place.

Behind Fan Lin , Boundless Douluo Chen Xinjie something was looking at him.

Fan Lin had already sensed him. He was just ignoring him as Chen Xinjie was far weaker than Yun Ming.

The reason why Fan Lin said that he was unsure that he can beat Yun Ming was not because he was weaker than him. He was on the same level as Yun Ming, the decisive factor that lead him to say that was Yun Ming's four word battle armour.

Fan Lin can easily crush Yun Ming 8 out of 10 times if they fought without battle armour. He himself was a three word battle armourer and knew of the strength increase that it provided to him.

That's why Fan Lin was not completely sure that he can beat Yun Ming if Yun Ming decided to go all out. His battle armour was nearly unusable to add to his problems.

If they seriously fought, Fan Lin would be seriously outclassed in everything except soul power density and physical body. Hence, Fan Lin was in a friends but enemy situation with him.

Fan Lin was sure that if he went all out like the Shrek Academy annihilation attack then he could kill Yun Ming even he used his four word battle armour but the side effects will be worse than before and he doesn't have any time to waste much less one year.

Fan Lin came here solely to check on the progress of Wulin as according to protagonists aura rule number 16: What can't kill you, will make you stronger instead.

Wulin was attacked by the Infernal King Harosha which was later dealt with by Yun Ming and him. Wulin should have a nonsensical increase in his strength according to the protagonists aura guidelines.

Fan Lin went to Chen Xinjie and sat beside him in his command center baffling Chen Xinjie. He was dumbfounded by the actions of Fan Lin.

" What are you doing here? Have you come to surrender? Good choice. You could not escape from the clutches of the federation."

" I am just here because of those thunder clouds. You should also pay attention to it."

Fan Lin said with his usual voice. He nearly killed Chen Xinjie when he said that he was surrendering.

' Just you alone and you think you can make me surrender. Are you dreaming?'

{ Chen Xinjie situation }

Chen Xinjie cast his gaze into the distance, and from his position, he could see the ferocious waves on the surface of the ocean, as well as the rich water elements rapidly rising up into the air.

Someone's using the power of the ocean! Could it be the same person as the one from before?

Chen Xinjie's brows furrowed tightly in a grim manner. If it really were the same person, what exactly did he want to do, and what could he even achieve?

The sky grew darker and darker, and lightning began to flash within the dense blanket of dark clouds up above.

The Boundless Ocean Douluo's heart jolted with shock as he took in the current situation. As a Limit Douluo who was a descendant of the ancient Sea Douluo, he had a very high level of affinity with the ocean. However, at this moment, he could sense that the sea was roaring at him in fury, and he was struggling to even control the seawater around the aircraft carrier.

Why type of power was capable of doing this?

"Attention, all units! Prepare to connect all ships and keep your communicators switched on to await my instructions," Chen Xinjie commanded.

At the same time, he had already begun to fly toward the epicenter where he could sense that the eruption of energy was originating from. He wanted to see exactly who it was that was causing such a commotion and had even turned the ocean against him.

The weather out at sea was indeed very unpredictable, but such an abrupt and drastic turn in weather conditions was still extremely rare. On top of that, for the very first time in his life, he could sense that the power of the ocean was rejecting him; this was completely abnormal!

What had happened to make the ocean become like this? This was definitely not a natural occurrence. There was either an extremely powerful Soul Master behind this, or an almighty sea soul beast. If it were a sea soul beast, then it had to at least be a Great Beast for it to be able to make the sea reject a demigod like him. If it were a human, then they had to be from the Star Luo Empire.

Regardless of what it was, the situation was definitely not within the realm of their expectations.

All of a sudden, a rumbling thunderclap rang out to break the tense and oppressive silence that had settled over the sea. Bolts of lightning quickly began to flash and intertwine to form massive lightning nets, before crashing down from above.

The thunderclaps made it sound as if heaven and earth were roaring to vent its fury, and extremely rich lightning and water elements were gathering within a vast surrounding area.

However, this also gave the federal fleet ample time to prepare to weather the storm. The three fleets quickly converged, and a series of giant metal pillars extended outward to connect all of the ships before drawing them into a dense cluster.

From a distance, it appeared as if a continent with an extremely rugged terrain had appeared on the surface of the ocean.

All of the ships of the three fleets were connected together with the three aircraft carriers at the very center, and they were all arranged in a formation that had been meticulously calculated to be able to withstand the elements to the greatest extent.

This was the special setup that the federal fleet had prepared specifically to counter dangerous weather conditions.

The soul fighter aircrafts on the decks of the aircraft carriers had already been stored away into their designated cabins and secured so that they wouldn't be damaged in the imminent storm.

Chen Xinjie was still hovering above the ocean, sensing the changes taking place in the surrounding water elements. He could sense that the water elements seemed to have attained life of their own and were constantly rising up into the air.

What was even more terrifying was that an infernal realm of lightning had appeared up above, and with his enormous powers, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have to fear any storm as he could easily erase the storm with his affinity with the ocean. However, this was a completely unprecedented situation in which he seemed to have lost the blessings of the sea.

There was no way for him to control the storm, and he couldn't disrupt the terrifying lightning that had gathered up above.

The more he looked at the situation, the more he was struck by the feeling that this wasn't a man-made situation. He couldn't imagine any human who was capable of summoning such a fearsome storm and influencing the ocean to this extent.

This was completely beyond human capabilities, even for Limit Douluos. He was already the Limit Douluo with the greatest level of affinity with the sea, yet he knew that he wouldn't be able to accomplish something like this.

Could it be that there was a pack of Great Beasts lurking nearby? There had to be at least two Great Beasts that were the equivalent of Limit Douluos that were creating such a fearsome storm.

Thankfully, human technology had already advanced to the extent that the power of soul beasts was simply no match, so he didn't have to be concerned about anything.

No matter how fierce this storm was, there was no way that it would be able to break the interconnected fleet. As for those two hypothetical Great Beasts, if they dared to appear, then he would show them the power of his four-word battle armor.
