T/N: Extra Chapter for teaching 50 powerstones.
Every 50/100/150 powerstones = 1 Chapter
(Same across my other books)
After their simple initial exchange,
The two appeared evenly matched on the surface, but this probing strike couldn't truly measure the gap between them.
Neptune decided to stop testing. The golden glow on his Sea God Trident didn't fade after the attack; instead, it intensified as he continued channeling divine light. Countless golden patterns rippled across the trident's surface, its massive blade becoming translucent like golden crystal.
With a sweeping motion, he summoned moisture from all directions, coalescing into an enormous creature –
A giant whale composed entirely of water!
The deep, resonant cry from this leviathan shook the mountains.
Sonic waves reverberated through the air, causing countless soul masters to bleed from their facial orifices. Weaker individuals directly vomited blood. Only Soul Douluos and Title Douluo-level experts could barely withstand it without harm.
Though not physically injured, even these experts felt their blood energy churn violently, requiring concentrated soul power to suppress.
What truly frustrated observers was realizing the whale's roar wasn't even the main attack. Watching this kilometer-long behemoth arc through stormy skies like a real whale breaching, its sheer mass alone was terrifying enough. Everyone understood this wasn't mere water – otherwise why shape it as a whale? But they could only watch helplessly as the colossal creature reached its apex and came crashing down.
Facing this aqueous apocalypse, Ye Cheng observed his own creation through shared senses. Magnificent... but ultimately hollow.
Such attacks might clear trash like Title Douluos, but against true experts? Clumsy. The simplest counter: teleport away.
As Ye Cheng vanished, the mountaintop he'd occupied disintegrated under the whale's impact.
True earth-shaking cataclysm.
Nearby mountain ranges cracked like eggshells. Upon impact, the aqueous whale exploded into raging torrents that scoured the landscape. Many spectators were swept away in the deluge – only their soul master constitutions prevented mass drownings.
Reappearing on another peak, Ye Cheng called across to Neptune: "Brother Ne, your water manipulation is impressive, but meaningless at our level. It only harms bystanders. Change tactics."
Scanning the struggling soul masters, Neptune nodded apologetically: "My oversight. We sea-dwellers forget land's fragility."
Hearing this exchange, the drenched spectators felt grudging respect. Most soul masters never considered collateral damage – until becoming victims themselves.
"Since water techniques are unsuitable, I'll employ Sea God's divine arts!" Neptune declared.
Golden flames erupted around him as a colossal golden phantom materialized behind – three times his height, depicting a golden-armored humanoid. As the phantom solidified and merged with Neptune, his trident blazed with divine radiance.
Stepping forward, Neptune transformed the battlefield. Everything within range gilded golden. Swinging his trident, he released a series of brilliant golden rings that homed unerringly toward Ye Cheng.
Instead of dodging, Ye Cheng's first six soul rings flashed consecutively. His Crimson Meteor Sword erupted with light as he slashed a crescent blade toward the approaching rings.
When blade met golden rings, the latter's inner golden membranes erased the attack like waves washing away sand.
Ye Cheng's eyebrows rose in genuine surprise – though internally, he recognized this technique. The first of Sea God's Golden Thirteen Strikes: Unfixed Storm. The ultimate restraining technique, said to immobilize any target for eight seconds regardless of strength.
But he knew the truth – against true peers, no technique was absolute. If this move could truly bind any foe, the Sea God would rank far beyond a mere first-grade deity.
