Has His Highness’s Bloodline True Form made a breakthrough?\" Marina said in pleasant surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white whale’s injuries were difficult to heal on its own, but it had someone to treat them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was true that there was no second Third-Order Demon King in this sea region...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was Navasen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Half a month later.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night fell on Donglong Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ye opened his eyes, his gaze profound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a moment ago, he had sensed the locations of the ’Key of Heaven’ and the ’Key of the Sea’ moving rapidly toward the outskirts of the Chaotic Reef District!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this...
