Chapter 110: Soul Demon Great White Shark and Deep Sea Demon Whale

After letting go, Mu Ye observed Huo Yuhao's actions, intending to step in and help when he could no longer hold on.

After all, this place was different from ordinary sea areas; once soul power was exhausted, it would be vitality's turn, and he did not want his disciple to be lost for such a reason.

But Mu Ye waited and waited — one minute, two minutes, ten minutes... until finally Huo Yuhao burst out of the sea surface, and he still had not gotten the chance to act.

"..."

Mu Ye clicked his tongue, looking at Huo Yuhao's pale but calm expression, and secretly sighed in admiration.

At this soul power rank, a genius who could rush out of this sea area on his own — their Body Sect had not seen one in a thousand years.

The Body Sect's cultivation requires perseverance, because the process is too painful; without sufficient willpower it is impossible to persist, and Huo Yuhao's perseverance ranks among the top of the Soul Masters he has seen.

Setting aside sect prejudice for him was worth it.

"Pa!"

Mu Ye stepped forward, using soul power to help Huo Yuhao — who had lost a vast amount of vital energy — stabilize his state, and said in a deep voice: "Meditate, cultivate the Innate Secret Technique, further stimulate and strengthen the Innate Qi."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao nodded, closed his eyes, and began to meditate and cultivate, while also pondering the intelligence he had just obtained, and I Lao's conjectures.

Judging from the current situation, Tang San's Sea God Position should be gone; it couldn't have been the Destruction God King's doing — letting a God Position vanish and reducing the God Realm's foundation is not his style. In other words... was it Lao Jin?

Huo Yuhao secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.

Lao Jin has gone on a killing spree — he even scraped off the Sea God Position. Astonishing wisdom ultimately lost to astonishing power.

He and Gu Yue Na — is this a free win?

Hmm... alright, not really. When the various God Realms merge into the Great God Circle, those Chaos Powers will elevate the God Kings, Half-step Divine Kings, and Divine Artifacts — that too is a great opportunity.

Sea God... Asura God Tang San is just temporarily down on his luck; the man is still alive.

Moreover, judging from Wu Lin's condition, Tang San only lost his God Position; his cultivation did not drop. As long as Tang San figures out the Sea God's Power, even without the God Position there will be remnants — laws and skill comprehensions, once realized, do not disappear.

Just like Rong Nianbing who gave his God Position to someone else — he can still use the Power of Emotions; the Seven Emotions and Six Desires, the emotional changes of the Great God Circle, were still bestowed by him. Tang Wulin also learned several spear techniques modified from the Golden Thirteen Halberds, including Unfixed Storm, which was taught directly by Tang San's Divine Sense...

The Sea God himself wouldn't necessarily need the Sea God Position to use Unfixed Storm, would he?

Huo Yuhao's gaze turned strange for an instant, and he secretly shook his head.

Stop wild thoughts — that's a God King; his power cannot be underestimated.

"However, the Sea God Position destroyed, the Ocean's authority returning to the Plane's hands, the Plane's consciousness still existing... these are all good news."

The Douluo Plane has treated him well, so he naturally hopes it fares well; but he cannot observe that level, and he isn't very certain whether his arrangements are beneficial or harmful to the Plane's consciousness.

Now it seems there might be a bit of effect.

Huo Yuhao used one mind for two tasks; mid-thought he finished circulating the Innate Secret Technique, opened his eyes, and a flash of gray light flickered in them.

Mu Ye noticed this scene, and his gaze instantly turned sharp, staring fixedly at Huo Yuhao's eyes, a trace of surprise and doubt flashing in his own.

He naturally understood what that fleeting gray light in Huo Yuhao's eyes signified — it was the outward manifestation of Innate Qi.

Only, what surprised him was that the aura fluctuation seemed different from what their Body Sect's records described.

"Perhaps there will be an unexpected change." Mu Ye secretly thought.

And Huo Yuhao looked toward the boundless great vortex before him, his eyes flickering slightly.

According to the Snow Empress's conjecture, the rules here were rewritten by Tang San's Divine Power, but this place has already been probed by many powerhouses; Limit Douluo have come too, and the mined Divine Power fragments were all taken away.

Those fragments carried little power; according to I Lao's conjecture, the battle was likely too fierce, forcing Tang San to abandon the Sea God Position himself. By igniting his Godly Fire, he discarded the Sea God God Position to elevate his own power.

Only thus would those fragments become mere ordinary energy fragments with little energy; after rewriting the rules here, they are useless to powerhouses.

What does the Ocean detest?

The Sea God aura on the Divine Power fragments has already vanished.

What else is here?

The answers to both questions were obtained from the Ocean on Huo Yuhao's fifteenth day, when he delved 2000 meters into the Deep Sea Abyss and stood on the sea bottom.

"The disliked thing... is here."

Huo Yuhao's boots sank deep into the sea-bottom mud; the water pressure all around nearly crushed his bones. But Blood Qi power and soul power condensed into a layer of armor on his body surface, barely resisting the terrifying pressure.

Huo Yuhao forcefully raised his spirit, enduring the incessant pressure and pain; Spiritual Detection fully open, the dim and dead-silent sea-bottom world outlined itself in his mind — jagged reefs, sea-bottom sand and gravel, and... a wisp of faint blue light.

"Is it this?"

Huo Yuhao advanced a few steps, used soul power to disperse the mud, and saw the sapphire-shaped object inside that had no power fluctuations at all; he narrowed his eyes.

These past days he had been communicating with the Ocean, asking it to tell him the root of its detestation of the Deep Sea Abyss; after asking around, he discovered only this place was accessible to him.

The water pressure at the center of the Deep Sea Abyss is dozens of times that of ordinary sea areas, reaching over ten thousand meters deep; there is no Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, soul power cannot be used — even a Titled Douluo entering would face mortal danger. He cannot go there now, and before figuring out this place's true face, he doesn't want to go either.

Fortunately the outer ring has what he's looking for, saving trouble.

After getting an unhindered answer from communicating with I Lao, Huo Yuhao was just about to wrap the gem in soul power and take it away, when a blinding light suddenly erupted from the depths of the sea trench, followed by a deafening roar; the powerful shockwave from the explosion spread outward like surging tides.

"—Roar!" A low roar came from the deep sea bottom; a huge black shadow surged upward from the deep sea, seawater brutally torn apart, snow-white sharp teeth flashing cold light in the gloomy waters.

Ten Thousand Year Soul Demon Great White Shark!

Not only it; not far away, a massive figure slowly rose from the sea trench, its body shining with brilliant light like sapphire, its huge head set with a pair of stunningly huge eyes.

Ten Thousand Year Deep Sea Demon Whale!

Both Sea Soul Beasts had injuries, seemingly having clashed before, but now they seemed to have a more important target, setting aside their dispute and charging over together.

The former's scarlet eyes now locked dead onto Huo Yuhao, killing intent boiling; the latter kept staring at the sapphire near him, its purpose clear.

Mu Ye, hidden in the dark, saw these two Soul Beasts and moved closer to Huo Yuhao's position, in case of any accident.

The lesson of the Death God Envoy — their Body Sect remembers it equally in heart.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale let out a long cry; the surrounding seawater suddenly became viscous. Huo Yuhao felt his body sink, the water pressure around him further increase several times, turning his face pale and slowing his movements considerably.

This is precisely the innate Domain that only a Super Soul Beast like the Deep Sea Demon Whale possesses!
