"The age of this octopus soul beast is impressive, but it's a pity it's not an ice attribute soul," Shui Wuya remarked as Shui Bing'er sat cross-legged on the ice turtle's back, beginning to absorb another hundred-thousand-year soul bone. His gaze lingered on the massive octopus carcass floating on the sea's surface.
During the recent battle, he had shown no mercy, swiftly killing the hundred-thousand-year-old octopus. This, unfortunately, meant Shui Bing'er missed the chance to acquire it as a soul spirit.
However, this wasn't a concern for Shui Wuya. Once he subdued the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, he could find another hundred-thousand-year ice attribute soul beast for Shui Bing'er.
Before long, Shui Bing'er successfully absorbed the octopus soul bone.
"Ahh," she exhaled deeply, slowly opening her eyes. Her body radiated the powerful aura of a Soul Douluo.
They continued their search and found a suitable soul beast for Shui Bing'er. After obtaining her eighth soul ring, her soul power didn't stop rising, eventually reaching level 84.
Shui Wuya noticed that she still had residual energy within her. After fully utilizing this energy, she might even gain another level.
"Congratulations on becoming a Soul Douluo."
"Thank you, Wuya! I couldn't have done it without you," Shui Bing'er replied, smiling warmly at him.
"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King has been in hiding for years. It won't be easy to find," she added, a hint of worry in her eyes.
A soul beast of nearly a million years would be incredibly difficult to locate if it decided to hide, akin to finding a needle in a haystack.
"No worries," Shui Wuya responded with a faint smile. Finding a hidden soul beast in the ocean might be challenging for others, but not for him.
With a single thought, Shui Wuya activated his fifth soul skill. His five soul spirits immediately channeled their power into him.
"Boom!"
In an instant, Shui Wuya's spiritual power soared to the level of two million years!
He then extended his hand, releasing an overwhelming wave of spiritual power across the sea, searching for the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
Time passed.
Within moments, his spiritual power reached the depths of the turbulent sea.
Suddenly, a violent tremor shook the ocean floor!
The entire sea churned violently, with waves surging over a hundred feet high in seconds!
"Boom!"
Simultaneously, the cloud-covered sky erupted with thunderous roars. Lightning flashed, and gale-force winds transformed into a super hurricane, ravaging the world!
On the ice turtle's back, Shui Wuya observed the sudden upheaval in the sea with a calm, confident smile.
"It has finally awakened," he murmured, his dark eyes gleaming with assuredness.
Beside him, Shui Bing'er and the two deans looked visibly anxious.
"Roar!"
Moments later, as the celestial phenomena peaked and torrential rain began to fall, a roar that seemed to shake the world echoed from the depths.
Following this, a colossal shadow emerged from below, releasing an unmatched soul beast aura!
"Uhh!"
The ice turtle trembled violently upon sensing the terrifying presence below, emitting a fearful, uneasy whimper.
Seeing this, Shui Wuya immediately cast a spiritual barrier, shielding the ice turtle from the external aura, restoring its calm.
"Roar!"
Moments later, an enormous figure, casting a shadow that covered the sky, emerged from beneath the sea, roaring in fury.
A gigantic demonic whale, over a thousand meters in length, surfaced!
"This is... the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!" Shui Bing'er exclaimed, her face showing sheer amazement as she gazed at the colossal beast overhead.
Simultaneously, monstrous waves, hundreds of meters high, surged, carrying a terrifying soul beast aura that spread rapidly across the ocean!
...
On a cliff at the edge of Seagod Island, two figures stood, one behind the other.
The person in front was a stunning woman wearing a deep blue gown and a jade crown.
Behind her, a middle-aged man in blue armor wore a look of shock on his face.
"Has that creature awakened?" Sea Dragon Douluo exclaimed, sensing the vast aura spreading from the distant sea.
The stunning woman, calmer than Sea Dragon Douluo, responded with composure.
"It seems to have awakened to feed."
After a moment of perplexity, she dismissed the concern.
Despite being a nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand year old soul beast, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King needed to feed and would surface every few years.
For her, as the High Priestess of Seagod Island, the awakening of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was not surprising.
What truly troubled her was the rapid spread of the Ice Goddess' faith across the ocean.
Clearly, as the number of Ice Goddess' followers grew, the influence of Seagod Island in the ocean would wane, and Seagod's authority would face significant challenges.
Despite numerous attempts by Seagod Island's titled Douluo to eliminate the source of the Ice Goddess' faith, they had yet to find it.
Moreover, the followers of the Ice Goddess had grown stronger with each crisis, spreading like wildfire.
"Any news from Seahorse?" Bo Saixi asked after a pause.
"High Priestess, Seahorse douluo has searched the entire southern sea but found no trace of those people," Sea Dragon Douluo replied immediately.
Bo Saixi sighed, her gaze drifting toward the turbulent sea.
...
While the High Priestess Bo Saixi was troubled on Seagod Island, a fierce battle raged in the chaotic sea where the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King had awakened.
The nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand year old Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, provoked by Shui Wuya's spiritual power, had awoken in a rage, engaging Shui Wuya and his group.
Suspended in mid-air, Shui Wuya unleashed his full 80-level soul power.
Wielding the Rank 9 Soul Tool, Snow Piercer God Spear, he continuously fired annihilation beams at the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
"Roar!"
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King created a soul power shield, blocking the Rank 9 Soul Tool's attacks, and then spewed a massive wave of oceanic energy from its gaping maw, aiming directly at Shui Wuya and his companions.
In response, Shui Wuya waved his hand, summoning the Vast Sea Universe Cover, which generated a robust protective barrier, safeguarding Shui Bing'er, the two deans, and the ice turtle.
As the oceanic energy surged towards them, Shui Wuya drew out the Ice God's artifact, a crystal ball glowing with a serene blue light!
