Chapter 696: The sea beast tide retreats! It was me holding the line at the front!

Xue Li digested the Hell Blood Vine Flower offshoots, and its experience points jumped up by a large margin.

Su Yang recalled it and used the Void Spirit's ability to move southward all the way.

Soon, Su Yang arrived a thousand kilometers away, and he pointed to the still surging and frantic sea beasts below and said to Xia Na: "Look!"

"Alright!"

Below, the sea beasts were swarming in the shallow sea area, each one struggling to climb onto the land.

It was just that the sea beasts in this area were clearly not as numerous as the sea beasts in Su Yang's previous battlefield.

But they were still ten times more formidable than the Hurricane Tiger's fierce beast army!

The number of sea beasts living in the ocean was simply too many.

These were all experience points delivered to his door.

"Start, get to work!"

Su Yang released his pets again to hunt these sea beasts that had been scared out of their wits by Yinglong.

While sweeping across the coastal area for sea beasts, Su Yang also changed battlefields to try to hunt more sea beasts.

Sea beasts also had intelligence; if they couldn't break through in one area for a long time, they would automatically divert to other areas to land.

It was just like queuing in a cafeteria!

As Su Yang killed, he killed his way to the Southern Military Region's territory.

Then he continued to use the Void Spirit's ability to kill his way to the Eastern Military Region's territory.

Wanting to catch all the sea beasts in one net was a pipe dream; Su Yang was just trying his best to hunt more sea beasts to reduce the pressure on the Huaxia Federation in the rear and strive to gain more experience points.

He alone was always isolated and helpless.

"Ding~ Your pet Hell Blood Vine Flower has upgraded to high-tier Emperor-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Explosive Flame Demon has upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Earth Tyrant Bear has upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Ice Moon Elf has upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Void Spirit has upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade!"

"..."

Su Yang's pets, taking advantage of this once-in-a-few-decades opportunity, were also upgrading frantically.

A month later, Su Yang clearly felt that the number of sea beasts attempting to land on the shore was decreasing sharply.

Decreasing to the point where Su Yang, who had experienced a large-scale sea beast tide, didn't even want to make a move...

He looked back and checked his pets.

The Hell Blood Vine Flower had the highest level, high-tier Emperor-grade!

Other pets, including Liu Liu Mengyun and Sovereign Jiazi's Ice Moon Elf, Nether Phantom Cat, and Golden Scale Mermaid, had all upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade.

The only one, the Twin Children, was still high-tier Sovereign-grade, but also very close to top-tier Sovereign-grade... they were always the laggards!

Haha!

Xia Na's Doom God Crow had also upgraded to low-tier Sovereign-grade, close to mid-tier Sovereign-grade!

The sea beast tide was likely about to retreat!

That Yinglong had likely already eaten its fill and fallen asleep in the deep sea.

The sea beast tide had lasted for more than a month, and Su Yang was very curious about how many sea beasts that Yinglong had swallowed.

He curled his lips, always feeling that Yinglong was wasting food.

If it signed a contract with him...

Xia Na stopped and flew to Su Yang's side: "General Su!"

Su Yang looked at Xia Na; Xia Na's military uniform had long been dyed blood-red, and her face and hands were covered in the blood of sea beasts; she looked pale and exhausted, appearing a bit pitiful.

But within her delicate body, terrifying energy fluctuations and heavy killing intent were radiating!

Xia Na also clearly understood that the sea beast tide was hard to come by, and that the opportunity to upgrade rapidly under Su Yang's protection was very rare; for more than a month, she had been fighting very, very hard!

"Very good, you worked very hard!" Su Yang smiled, "Congratulations on becoming the fifth Emperor-grade Beastmaster of the Huaxia Federation!"

Xia Na smoothed her long hair, which was stuck together by dried blood: "This is all thanks to General Su's cultivation!"

The Doom God Crow clamored in Xia Na's body: "Too crazy! Too crazy! I originally thought that even if my luck was good, it would take fifty years to reach Sovereign-grade; I didn't expect it to be Sovereign-grade in less than two years... Su Yang's crazy ability is simply ridiculous; stinky woman, you've been unlucky your whole life, it turns out it was to save up your luck for this!"

Xia Na: "..."

"Alright!" Su Yang said, "The sea beast tide is gradually retreating, and the sea beasts that have already landed might also be returning to the ocean; we can still hunt some."

"Yes!"

"Can you still hold on?"

"Of course I can!"

A flush gradually appeared on Xia Na's pale face.

This redness was not natural, but a kind of mental excitement.

When a person is excited, they can indeed temporarily block out physical exhaustion.

"Then let's go to the nearby city and take a look!" Su Yang said, "Let's clean up the sea beasts in the city first!"

The civilians and low-level Beastmasters in the nearby city were all hiding in shelters.

Shelters themselves were not very safe.

They needed to rely on luck.

Along the way, Su Yang saw many cities that had been razed to the ground.

They also encountered many returning sea beasts.

Su Yang tried his best to kill and clean up the sea beasts left in the major cities; during this time, he also saw many situations where shelters had completely collapsed, and no one in the shelters in the city had survived.

Seeing such scenes, Su Yang just sighed slightly and then continued his work.

Life and death, he had long since taken lightly.

Su Yang's cleaning speed was extremely fast; nearly two-fifths of the cities in the entire Southeast Region had been destroyed by sea beasts.

Not long after, he ran into the elite forces drawn from other military regions by the Southeast Military Region and the General Military Region.

After meeting them, Su Yang turned to the Southern Military Region.

For the rest, as long as they fought steadily and were careful, the Southeast Military Region could be considered to have survived this sea beast tide.

"Ding~ Your pet Explosive Flame Demon has upgraded to low-tier Emperor-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Storm Eagle has upgraded to low-tier Emperor-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Ice Moon Elf has upgraded to low-tier Emperor-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Earth Tyrant Bear has upgraded to low-tier Emperor-grade!"

"Ding~ Your pet Seven-Colored Psychedelic Butterfly has upgraded to low-tier Emperor-grade!"

"..."

After another month or so, the sea beast tide that had swept across the Huaxia continent finally ended completely.

In Su Yang's hands, the Explosive Flame Demon, Storm Eagle, Ice Moon Elf, Earth Tyrant Bear, and Seven-Colored Psychedelic Butterfly had all upgraded to Emperor-grade!

Other pets like the Golden Scale Mermaid and the Void Spirit were also very close to low-tier Emperor-grade.

The Twin Children also upgraded to top-tier Sovereign-grade.

The Hell Blood Vine Flower was close to top-tier Emperor-grade!

After the massive sea tide, the probability of encountering powerful sea beasts decreased significantly.

After all, powerful sea beasts retreated back to the ocean very quickly, and Su Yang couldn't necessarily block them.

Half a month later, Su Yang was holed up in Qian Qian Hailong's office drinking tea.

Xia Na stood silently by Su Yang's side.

Qian Qian Hailong said in a low voice: "This sea beast tide was indeed more powerful than the previous few times; two Emperor-grade sea beasts appeared in the Southeast Region!"

"I killed one of them!" Su Yang said, "I didn't find the other one; it might have returned to the ocean."

The one Su Yang killed, of course, was not the Emperor Whale.

Qian Qian Hailong nodded: "Hmm!"

"What is the loss situation?"

"Although you said this massive sea tide was unprecedented in scale and Emperor-grade sea beasts did indeed appear... but the losses were smaller than I expected."

Su Yang rolled his eyes directly: "That was me holding the line at the front!"
