Chapter 677: Death of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Limit Douluo Lv Lingqi

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King gave a cold laugh, and power gathered once more; it was the same sphere as before, much smaller in diameter, but numbering in the tens of thousands. The massive energy fluctuations dyed the sky purple, and even caused the space itself to distort.

A piercing sound of breaking air rang out. From condensation to release, it took only a single breath of time before those thousands of purple light spheres rained down like a meteor shower toward the real body of Lv Lingqi. This was a wide-range area-of-effect attack, and its speed could only be described as lightning-fast.

Three parts water, seven parts thunder—this was the attribute of this move by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Each purple light sphere was fused from these two types of energy. It could be called a composite attribute attack.

They were like thunder beads; once they collided, they would explode with terrifying attack power. This kind of wide-range locking attack was impossible to dodge.

No matter how fast Lingqi was, it was difficult to avoid such an attack with no blind spots.

However, Lingqi did not intend to dodge. Although this move covered a vast area, it was not enough to pose a fatal threat to her current self. Meanwhile, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, having unleashed this move, was in a state of total depletion, making it a good time for a counterattack. It was better to trade injury for injury with the opponent.

Lv Lingqi charged straight toward the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, braving those thunder spheres. The Demon Whale King did not care at all; his physical defense had weakened, but as his body shrank, all his energy became more concentrated, and the energy armor he formed had a defensive power that was in no way inferior to his original body.

Amidst the bombardment of the thunder spheres, Lingqi's beast martial soul Spirit Avatar was covered in wounds and even on the verge of collapse. Because all three of her Great Giant Walls had been exhausted, the avatar could only use its own body as a shield to help Lingqi block some of the attacks. It was soon shattered by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and would need some time to reform.

"Heh heh, the successor of the Sea God, nothing more than this," the Deep Sea Demon Whale King laughed.

"Is that so?"

Just as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was feeling smug, three astonishingly shocking light waves suddenly shot out from the smoke. Behind the light waves, a Sea God Trident flew toward it.

As the beast martial soul Spirit Avatar dissipated and the avatar was shattered, Lingqi simply switched her martial soul.

These three light waves were the Eighth Soul Skill of the Feilian Halberd martial soul, the Three Saint Flower Slash, a weakened version of Dian Wei's Five Peaks Flower Slash. But even as a weakened version, while it might be inferior in raw power, its strongest trait remained the same: it ignored defense and dealt true damage.

No matter how strong the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's energy armor was, it was useless against this kind of defense-ignoring attack.

To the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's disbelief, the energy armor was instantly cracked by the three-in-one light wave.

Immediately following, the Sea God Trident arrived late but struck first; this was a move from the Golden Thirteen Halberd, "One Goes, Never Returns."

The tip of the Halberd pierced exactly into the crack in the armor, directly penetrating its heart.

"How is this possible?" The Deep Sea Demon Whale King clutched the massive wound on its chest. Even the Sea God Trident could not pierce the energy armor, yet it had been shattered by three light waves.

"Underestimating the enemy has always been a military taboo. Deep Sea Demon Whale King, from the very start of this battle, you looked down on me, a young girl. But you didn't know that even the world-renowned Pope of the Spirit Hall was defeated by my hands. And at this moment, compared to when I fought her, my strength has increased significantly. Even if the Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi were before me, she might not be my match," Lingqi said softly. Although her tone was not loud, it contained incomparable confidence.

Although she was covered in wounds at this moment, she still had strength to spare.

"Inflict a thousand, lose eight hundred"—sometimes this saying is not meant in a derogatory sense. At least for Lingqi at this moment, it was worth it.

"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, I have won this battle!" Lingqi gripped the handle of the Trident, channeled all the Godly Power of the Trident, and pulled it out in one motion. Finally, this powerful Million-Year Soul Beast could no longer support its body; its three-meter-tall body, dripping with blood, fell from the sky and headed straight for the sea.

Having lost the support of its energy, it could no longer maintain its human form. While still in mid-air, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had already transformed back into its demon whale body. Its massive, two-hundred-meter-long body crashed into the sea, with a huge, incomparable wound in the center of its torso.

As the massive body slammed into the water, the sea was instantly dyed red by its blood. Surging energy fluctuations erupted, and another round of tsunamis spread out.

"Yes, you won. I lost," the Deep Sea Demon Whale King revealed a strange smile. It appeared to have died completely, and even the dark golden Spirit Ring and soul bone with nine golden patterns had begun to emerge.

Although it was called a Million-Year Soul Beast, it had not actually broken through to a million years like the Tianmeng Iceworm or the Red Hare Horse; it had only infinitely approached it. Therefore, its Spirit Ring, while possessing the golden light of a million-year ring, still only had nine golden patterns.

However, after the Sea God Nine Trials, all of Lingqi's Spirit Rings would increase by fifty thousand years. By then, the tenth golden pattern on this Spirit Ring would surely be added.

Lingqi, however, smiled calmly, "Senior Demon Whale King, you shouldn't be ashamed to lie to a young girl like me."

She did not rush to absorb the Spirit Ring, but instead drew the soul bone over, and at the same time, used the power of the Peerless Ghost God Art.

Feihuang had told her that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul power was extremely strong. Even if she successfully defeated it, she could not be careless; it might hide its remnant soul within the soul bone, waiting for her to absorb it so it could devour her soul and possess her body.

Hidden within the soul bone, a pitch-black soul was forcibly dragged out by Lv Lingqi; it was the soul of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"No... no..." This time, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was truly desperate, letting out roar after roar.

It never expected that Lv Lingqi, a young girl, would be so meticulous, able to perceive even its final resort.

Unfortunately, no matter how angry it was, as a mere soul, it was useless.

The Peerless Ghost God Art was the natural nemesis of such ghosts that were nothing but souls. As Lingqi struck with her palm, the last of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul power completely dissipated.

This time, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was truly dead beyond any doubt.

Lv Lingqi descended to the sea surface. Seeing that the battle was over, Xiaobai immediately swam over to catch Lingqi.

Lingqi guided the Spirit Ring over and began to absorb the ninth ring of the Viking Giant.

Once she absorbed this Spirit Ring, and added the soul bone, her level would inevitably rise to the Limit Douluo realm. The higher the level before becoming a god, the more abundant the Godly Power she could receive, and the stronger her strength would be.

Now that Lingqi had passed the Eighth Trial, the next step was the Ninth Trial of tempering the heart. Compared to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, this trial was not difficult, and Lingqi was very confident in passing it.

"Husband, wait a little longer, I will be back soon."
