Chapter 175: Passing the Fourth Trial, the Sea King Pearl!

Lin Potian's gaze was like lightning, his aura climbing crazily as his hands moved rapidly, chanting: "Today I shall let you know, even if our realms are far apart, I can still slay you beneath my scythe!"

Having said this, the deep blue Flame and lightning around him suddenly merged, transforming into a strange Zhiyan Leiguang Lingyu that spread wildly in all directions with Lin Potian at its center!

Within the domain, countless bolts of lightning darted about like spirit snakes, and the deep blue Flame burned fiercely; wherever it passed, the seawater instantly vaporized, and space itself was scorched into distortion!

The Deep Sea Demon Shark King, caught within this eerie domain, felt a surge of unease in its heart, but its pride as a Quasi-Immortal Emperor-level exotic beast made it unwilling to show weakness, and it roared: "Hmph, this is nothing but a deathbed struggle; today, you ant shall surely die!"

Having said this, it violently thrashed its body, its scales standing on end one by one, each scale shimmering with a cold, icy light; immediately after, the scales shot toward Lin Potian like hidden weapons, filling the sky!

These scales traveled through the Zhiyan Leiguang Lingyu without being affected in the slightest, moving at extreme speed, and in the blink of an eye, they were before Lin Potian!

Lin Potian sneered: "I return the same words to you—mere petty tricks!"

Having said this, the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe in his hand spun rapidly, forming an impenetrable defensive circle that blocked the incoming scales one after another!

At the same time, he manipulated the lightning within the domain, condensing it into dozens of lightning spears that shot toward the Demon Shark King!

The lightning spears carried a shrill whistling sound, like small meteors, with astonishing power. Seeing this, the Demon Shark King hurriedly opened its giant mouth and spat out a stream of ice-blue cold air; the cold air instantly froze the surrounding seawater, forming a thick wall of ice in an attempt to block the lightning spears!

However, the power of the lightning spears far exceeded the Demon Shark King's imagination; with a series of "Bang! Bang!" loud noises, the ice wall was instantly pierced through by the lightning spears, and the spears continued to fly toward the Demon Shark King!

"Ahhh!"

The Demon Shark King could not dodge in time, and several spears pierced its body, causing fresh blood to splatter instantly!

In unbearable pain, it let out a heaven-shaking roar, its eyes filled with anger and unwillingness: "Why are you so strong?!"

"No comment!"

Lin Potian let out a cold shout and pressed his advantage, his figure flashing like a ghost as he instantly appeared above the Demon Shark King's head!

He raised the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe high, the blade intertwined with Zhiyan Leiguang, emitting an aura that could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth!

"Die!"

Lin Potian roared, and the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe, wrapped in endless power, slashed fiercely down at the Demon Shark King!

"No, you cannot possibly kill me!"

Sensing the threat of this fatal blow, the Demon Shark King, in a panic, exhausted all its strength to gather all the power within its body to its head, forming a massive blue light shield!

Boom!

The Soul-Severing Scythe collided with the light shield, erupting with a loud noise, and the powerful energy shockwave spread in all directions with the point of collision as the center!

The surrounding seawater was instantly heaved into a giant wave hundreds of thousands of meters high!

Under this powerful impact, the Demon Shark King's light shield gradually shattered, and the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe continued to slash down, leaving a deep wound on the Demon Shark King's head!

The Demon Shark King's massive body teetered, and it looked at Lin Potian in terror, its voice trembling slightly: "You... how could you be this powerful!"

Lin Potian hovered in the air, looking coldly at the Demon Shark King, and said in a deep voice: "I am never bound by realms. Today is your death day!"

Having said this, he gathered his power once more, preparing to deliver the final blow to the Demon Shark King!

In an instant, the deep blue Flame and lightning around Lin Potian merged crazily, transforming into a mysterious and unpredictable Zhiyan Leiguang Lingyu, surging outward in all directions with the force of a landslide and a tidal wave!

The Deep Sea Demon Shark King was trapped deep within this domain, and a strong sense of unease surged in its heart, but as a proud Quasi-Immortal Emperor-level exotic beast, how could it be willing to show weakness?

It immediately let out a heaven-shaking roar: "Hmph, you cannot do anything to me; I am a Great Emperor, my status is higher than yours, no matter what, you cannot kill me!"

Before the roar had even faded, the Demon Shark King violently twisted its massive body, its scales standing on end, each one shimmering with cold light!

Immediately after, these scales shot toward Lin Potian like dense hidden weapons, filling the sky; within the Zhiyan Leiguang Lingyu, these scales seemed to possess intelligence, remaining completely unaffected and moving at an incredible speed, reaching Lin Potian in the blink of an eye!

Lin Potian curled his lips into a sneer and said disdainfully: "I don't know if I can kill you, but you dare to show off with such petty tricks?"

Swish...!

The Nether Soul-Severing Scythe in his hand spun at high speed, instantly forming an impenetrable defensive circle that blocked the incoming scales one after another!

At the same time, he manipulated the lightning within the domain, condensing it again in the blink of an eye into dozens of lightning spears that shot toward the Demon Shark King like arrows released from a bow, with terrifying momentum!

Seeing this, the Demon Shark King spat out a stream of ice-blue cold air; wherever the cold air reached, the seawater instantly condensed into a thick wall of ice, attempting to block the lightning spears!

However, the power of the lightning spears far exceeded the Demon Shark King's estimation; with a series of "Bang! Bang!" loud noises, the ice wall was instantly pierced through by the lightning spears, and the spears continued to race toward the Demon Shark King without losing momentum!

The Demon Shark King could not dodge in time, and several spears pierced its body fiercely; in an instant, fresh blood splattered. The Demon Shark King felt the pain and let out a shrill roar, but it simply would not die!

The Demon Shark King laughed loudly, its voice echoing through the chaotic sea area ravaged by the battle, extremely arrogant: "You cannot kill me! I am a Great Emperor!"

Although its massive body was already covered in wounds, its words still carried a sense of arrogance!

Hearing this, Lin Potian frowned; defeating this Demon Shark King was simple, but wanting to kill it, just as the Deep Sea Demon Shark King said, was impossible.

There is a status gap between a Great Emperor and a Sovereign, making it impossible to slay.

But just at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly rang out: "He cannot kill you, but what about us?"

Lin Potian followed the sound and looked over, a flash of surprise in his eyes; the person who had arrived was none other than the orca mother and daughter who had left earlier!

He saw light flowing around them as they swam slowly toward Lin Potian.

As the distance closed, the light became increasingly dazzling; in the blink of an eye, the orca mother and daughter's figures changed abruptly, transforming into two swords that came toward Lin Potian's palms, while their voices transmitted: "Benefactor, all things in the world have their mutual generation and restraint; with our help, you will be able to slay this Deep Sea Demon Shark King!"

Hearing this, Lin Potian did not hesitate to reach out his hands and firmly grasp the twin swords!

Then, his gaze like a torch, he locked onto the Deep Sea Demon Shark King!

At this moment, a trace of fear flashed in the Demon Shark King's eyes for the first time, and its massive body began to tremble slightly and involuntarily!

"It's over!"

Lin Potian flashed, moving like a black bolt of lightning as he raced toward the Demon Shark King!

He brandished the twin swords in his hands; the twin swords transformed from the orca mother and daughter coordinated with the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe, and for a time, Zhiyan Leiguang entwined around the blades and the scythe, the light dazzling!

"Demon Shark Shield!"

Seeing this, the Demon Shark King exhausted its last bit of strength, gathering defensive power once more, chanting as it did so, while the remaining scales on its body shimmered with a faint light, attempting to form one final protective barrier!

However, Lin Potian's attack had already arrived, and the twin swords in his hands, carrying the momentum to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth, slashed fiercely toward the Demon Shark King!

The Demon Shark Shield was like paper, shattered in an instant!

The first sword severed one of the Demon Shark King's fins, causing its body to lose balance and sway violently in the seawater!

The second sword sliced across the Demon Shark King's abdomen, and fresh blood gushed out like a spring, the wound unable to heal, dyeing the surrounding seawater bright red!

"No, don't!"

The Demon Shark King let out a desperate roar.

But Lin Potian did not give it any chance to catch its breath; he immediately leaped high into the air, and with the Nether Soul-Severing Scythe in his hand carrying endless power, he slashed fiercely toward the Demon Shark King's head!

"Boom!" With a loud crash, the Demon Shark King's massive body collapsed under this triple attack!

Its eyes gradually lost their luster, and its enormous body slowly sank to the bottom of the sea, splashing up a huge spray of water!

The Demon Shark King—dead!

Following the death of the Demon Shark King, the surrounding space began to change. The space, which had been distorted beyond recognition by the battle, gradually returned to calm, and a dazzling light rose from the seabed, enveloping Lin Potian.

At the same time, a voice echoed from the void;

"Fourth Pass, cleared!"

"Distributing rewards: Water Path Law, Demon Shark King Inner Core, and Zhun Xiandi Ji Ganyuan!"

As the voice faded, Lin Potian found a deep blue Inner Core and a strand of solidified, ultimate Water Path Law in his hands!

Some insights also appeared in his mind.

They were precisely the insights for breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level!

However, he could not use them yet; Lin Potian was currently only at the Honored Rank Late Stage, so he temporarily sealed the insights away.

Swish, swish...

The orca mother and daughter transformed into their true forms and spoke respectfully to Lin Potian in gratitude: "Thank you, benefactor, for protecting us; please accept this small token of our appreciation."

After speaking, an indigo jade bead flew into Lin Potian's hand!

Two exquisite small characters were carved onto the jade bead—Sea King!

"Sea King Pearl?!"

Lin Potian's hand nearly trembled; he recognized this item, and the origin of this bead was truly immense!
