Chapter 216 Seduction of the Deepsea Devil Whale King_2

"Hiss..."

After listening to Qin Xiao's words, the Deepsea Devil Whale King couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath.

At this moment, he understood why the Sea God was also so captivated by the Plane Will.

He even had some other ideas.

Of course, thoughts were just thoughts; he was very clear about his own limitations. The Sea God had already ascended to godhood. Could he achieve what even the Sea God hadn't?

"But why have you only appeared now?" the Deepsea Devil Whale King raised another question.

It had to be said that he was very meticulous.

But Qin Xiao was even more meticulous, having chosen his words carefully on the way here.

He sighed, "Ah, isn't it because the Sea God's strength was stronger? After struggling against him, I fell into a deep slumber, and it was only a short while ago that I recovered and woke up."

"So that's how it is..." the Deepsea Devil Whale King nodded again, as Qin Xiao's explanation did indeed seem reasonable.

Seeing that the Deepsea Devil Whale King had no further questions, Qin Xiao crossed his arms and looked down upon him imposingly, speaking indifferently, "Now, I think you can reconsider my earlier proposal, right?"

"So how exactly do you plan to 'help,' no, use me?"

The Deepsea Devil Whale King asked in a deep voice.

Unconsciously, his attitude had softened considerably compared to before.

Qin Xiao could clearly feel that the opposition towards him from the other party was far less intense.

Being willing to have a proper discussion was a very good sign.

"I've come to understand your situation. Your Cultivation Level is just one step shy of the million-year mark, and your body has also undergone ninety-nine percent of the transformation to divinity," he said.

"You could say that you haven't become a god yet, you're just missing the final step."

Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, the Deepsea Devil Whale King bobbed his huge head as if to nod.

"You're not wrong, but that final step is incredibly difficult. I've struggled mightily for a long time without being able to break through that threshold.

However, recently I've sensed the chance for a breakthrough."

"I detected a burst of Sea God Divine Power on Sea God's Island and I suspect that there's very likely a successor to the godhood there. If I could find that heir and devour them, absorbing their Divine Power, perhaps I could complete my final transformation."

With that, the Deepsea Devil Whale King turned towards Qin Xiao with a look of hatred in his eyes, "Since you are the Plane Will, you must have also noticed the anomaly on Sea God's Island. Don't tell me you have the same idea as me?"

What idea? To let you eat me?

Qin Xiao thought irritably in his heart.

What a joke, he intended to use the Deepsea Devil Whale King as a tool, but he had never thought of using himself as bait.

Immediately his expression turned cold, "Humph, that's all the ambition you have. A mere godhood successor, even if one did appear, what of it? Even if you eat them, do you really think you can complete the final evolution and become a true million-year soul beast?"

"I can't?"

"Of course not. How much Divine Power could possibly be inside a successor?"

But the response from the Deepsea Devil Whale King left Qin Xiao at a loss for words.

"Even if it doesn't allow me to complete the final evolution, I still want to eat the Sea God's successor. Not for anything else, just to spite them and soothe my own heart."

Damn it.

Do you take me for a peace of mind pill, to be eaten for your comfort?

Qin Xiao was speechless.

But now he couldn't reveal his identity, or all his efforts would be in vain.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he came up with another way to articulate it.

"Foolish."

Qin Xiao scoffed, "If you're really in a rush to die, then go ahead and do just that."

"What do you mean?" The Deepsea Devil Whale King's voice grew colder.

"If you consume the Sea God's successor, you will surely incur the Sea God's wrath. These high and mighty deities hold their reputation and faith most dear.

They might overlook the rules of the Divine Realm and descend to slay you. What could you do then?"

"Ah, that..."

The Deepsea Devil Whale King was at a loss for words.

Qin Xiao's remarks served as a reminder.

Upon careful consideration, it was indeed true.

It was the same reason he had never attacked Sea God's Island in all these years—it was the protection of the Sea God which he dared not challenge lightly.

"So what are your plans for me?" the Deepsea Devil Whale King asked calmly after some contemplation.

"I have discovered the coordinates of another plane, known as the Demonic Plane. In that world, there are four powerful Demon Lords, each of their strengths on par with Poseissi, of course, I refer to the Poseissi outside of Sea God's Island.

"If you could devour two of the Demon Lords, the energy they provide would be enough to allow you to complete the final step and become the first million-year soul beast in Soul Land,"

Qin Xiao said slowly.

This was his purpose.

"Really!"

The voice of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was filled with surprise.

Qin Xiao replied indifferently, "Of course, it's true. I've even arranged for some humans to go to the Demonic Plane first to establish a foothold.

Their progress has been smooth, and they have initially established a camp. After that, they'll have to keep expanding their operations area, devouring and slaying more demons."

"They've already started?"

"Then I must go and try it,"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was beside himself with excitement.

He knew what he was lacking but had been unable to obtain it. Now, the words of Qin Xiao seemed to point him towards a clear path, and of course, he would not refuse.

As long as he ascended to godhood, would revenge still be far off?

But Qin Xiao did not immediately give a response.

"What's wrong? You want to use me, don't you? Come on, I can hardly wait,"

the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King shouted loudly.

Qin Xiao: "..."

This guy's thought process was just abnormal.

What the hell kind of aggressive words were these?

"Cough cough."

After coughing lightly twice, Qin Xiao slowly said, "It's possible, but you must first enter into a contract with me. For the coming year, you must listen to me, serve me as your master!"

"What?"

"That's impossible!"

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King flatly refused, "The old geezer wanted to take me as his mount, and it was because I didn't agree that we fell out. Now you want to ride me too. This is too much. How are you any different from the Sea God?"

So the grudge between the Sea God and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was over a matter of who would ride whom...

But who the hell wanted to ride you...

Qin Xiao's face darkened, "Rest assured, within this year I won't force you to do anything, nor will I do anything that threatens you.

I just want to impose some restrictions on you. After all, as a soul beast, you will be living alongside some humans, and there might be problems. I have to take precautions.

If you don't trust me, I can make such a vow as well."

Indeed, he only needed such a relationship, just to get through the assessment by faking it.

As for truly enslaving the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King—it was a good idea, but given this guy's character, would he likely submit?

After listening to Qin Xiao's words, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King didn't have the strength to reply.

He was silent and also contemplating.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao knew it was time to give a powerful stimulant.

"You don't have much time to think. After all, in my plan, it would only take a year to complete the devouring of the Demonic Plane.

If you don't agree, I'll go find another partner."

"Can you find others?"

"What makes you think I can't?"

Qin Xiao suddenly laughed, "Within my perception, in a place called Aquipeia Forest in Soul Land, there are some powerful presences.

In the far northern lands, there is also a presence that is not much less formidable than yours. Besides, far from Sea God's Island, there are many strong beings..."

"Do you know the people or soul beasts from these places? Even if they don't have a grudge against the Sea God, who would refuse to boost their power?"

Having said that, Qin Xiao looked at the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King with a vague smile.

In fact, he had not sensed any of these but there were some records in the original Soul Land. Scaring the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King with this was not a problem.

It was necessary to put pressure on the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, or else where was the motivation to make a decision?

As expected.

The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was somewhat panicked.

After all, the cake was only so big, and he feared missing out if he entered the scene too late.
