Chapter 128: The Siren Chieftain's Gratitude

"Your Majesty, how should we deal with the remaining Black Abyss creatures?"

Seeing the Ice Lion King finish his meal, the Hydra Giant Snake spoke.

After the Black Abyss Unicorn Demon Jiao died, the other Black Abyss lifeforms did not disperse; they continued endless slaughter in the black deep sea, spreading the black water to nearby seas.

These black waters spread like a virus, continuously raging outward.

"Can they regain their sanity?"

Chen Mo asked.

"Your Majesty, my inner pill can disperse Black Abyss energy, but it cannot restore their sanity."

the Hydra Giant Snake lamented.

These lifeforms infected by Black Abyss energy have completely lost their minds, like zombies, driven only by bloodlust and the instinct to kill.

"Then, let us relieve them of their suffering!"

Chen Mo unreservedly released his kingly pressure, then erupted at triple the speed of sound, thrusting straight forward.

Bang bang bang! The sound of explosions rang continuously.

Within a radius of one kilometer, all Black Abyss lifeforms' bodies burst apart instantly.

The black‑red seawater grew increasingly turbid; after clearing a small portion of the sea, Chen Mo gave up.

The polluted Black Abyss creatures were too many, and the ocean too vast; with his own strength alone, he could hardly purify all the seas.

"We must find a way to control the expansion of the black water."

Otherwise, the black water will eventually spread into his territory and even contaminate the entire ocean!

After thinking, Chen Mo sealed part of the black water with solid ice, intending to take it back as a test sample.

Since the Hydra Giant Snake's Snake Pill can purify black water, the black water must be purifiable by some substance.

Among the many spiritual plants the Sea Demon Leader previously gave him, there is a mutated one with detoxifying and purifying effects; he wonders if it can cleanse the black water.

If not, Chen Mo plans to continue cultivating spiritual plants and divine medicines in the sea, hoping to breed a mutated spiritual plant that can purify and absorb the black water.

Soon, the Ice Lion King and the Hydra Giant Snake returned to the waters of the Ice Lion Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, chieftain, you have returned."

Seeing Chen Mo and the Hydra Giant Snake, the Sirens and the Sea Demons breathed a sigh of relief.

When they went to hunt the Black Abyss Unicorn Demon Snake, the Siren was extremely worried.

It wasn't that she doubted the Ice Lion King and Hydra Giant Snake's strength; the Black Abyss Giant Python was simply too powerful.

She prayed in her heart that they return safely.

Even if they fail to kill the Black Abyss Giant Python, it would be fine.

"Siren, that black‑scaled Giant Python has already been slain by Your Majesty."

the Hydra Giant Snake said slowly, its golden eyes flashing.

Even now, it could not hide the joy and excitement in its heart.

Upon hearing this, the Siren's sea‑demon emerald eyes showed excitement, and she bowed to Chen Mo: "Your Majesty, thank you for killing the Black Abyss Demon Snake."

"You are the ruler of the land, the king of the sea. All other beings pale before you."

At this moment, she felt both awe at the Lion King's might and sincere gratitude toward him.

That Black Abyss Unicorn Demon Snake had killed many of her relatives; the Siren harbored a great hatred toward it.

Hearing the Siren's flattery, Chen Mo found it somewhat amusing.

It was his first time discovering that this cold‑beauty Sea Demon leader could speak so well.

He nodded and said calmly:

"Bring me those mutated spiritual plants I gave you before."

Soon, the two Sea Demon girls lifted both hands and presented the four mutated spiritual plants before Chen Mo.

Chen Mo took out the previously frozen black water, partially unfroze it, and immediately placed a type of mutated green algae into it.

This mutated green algae, called Purifying Green Algae, can cleanse water quality and is the most likely plant to purify black water!

When the algae soaked into the black water, its stems turned black quickly, but the black water at the edges lightened slightly.

Seeing this, Chen Mo unleashed a Great Spirit Rain Technique, instantly catalyzing tens of thousands of units of Purifying Green Algae.

Then he poured some of the Purifying Green Algae into a massive ice block containing black water.

The black water's color visibly faded, as if ink were being continuously diluted. After about ten minutes, the black water inside the ice block fully returned to its original hue.

The Black Abyss energy in the black water was absorbed by the Purifying Water Algae.

Seeing this, the Hydra Giant Snake and the Siren Sea Demon were overjoyed.

This meant the expansion of the black water could likely be effectively controlled.

It also meant they would have a chance to return to their homeland — the Return‑to‑Origin Secret Realm!

However, Chen Mo was not satisfied.

Although the Purifying Water Algae can cleanse black water, its effect is too weak.

He can catalyze about a hundred thousand units of algae at once, and a thousand units of Purifying Green Algae can cleanse roughly 100 cubic meters of sea.

In other words, one Great Spirit Rain Technique can cleanse 10,000 cubic meters of sea.

The number may seem large, but it is negligible compared to the whole ocean.

After thinking, Chen Mo still decided to teach the Sea Demon clan and the slightly smarter water‑type transcendents the Minor Spirit Rain Technique.

Compared with the Great Spirit Rain Technique, the Minor Spirit Rain Technique is much simpler.

With the Teach Lion+ bonus, there is a high chance they will learn it.

If they can learn it, then everyone planting this Purifying Water Algae could gradually cleanse the polluted seas.

"As you have seen, this Purifying Green Algae can cleanse black water; start by mass‑planting it,"

Furthermore, gather all beings above the High Transcendent level; I will teach you the Little Spirit Rain Technique.

Whether you can master it depends on your destiny.

I'll go inform them right away; thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing the method!

The sea monster Siren said excitedly.

She was naturally aware of the marvelous effects of the Little Spirit Rain Technique.

She did not expect that Your Majesty would actually be willing to teach such a precious method to them.

——————————

It took about half a day, and Chen Mo successfully taught several fairly perceptive seafolk to release the Little Spirit Rain Technique.

Afterwards, Chen Mo prepared to return to Great Snow Mountain.

Upon returning to the Ice Lion Territory, he saw the figures of Xiongba, Bingli, and other beasts.

Previously, they had been dispatched by Chen Mo to develop and control the surrounding area of the Pyramid Secret Realm.

Their appearance in the Ice Lion Territory now suggests they have completed the tasks assigned to them.

"Your Majesty, you have become stronger again!"

Seeing the Lion King, whose appearance had drastically changed yet whose aura and imposing pressure grew ever stronger, Xiongba's eyes were filled with respect and reverence.

At first, when it submitted to Chen Mo, it still harbored, to some degree, thoughts of pursuit.

But soon, only worship remained in its heart.

When the disparity in strength between the two sides is too great, there is no notion of competition at all; merely being able to follow the legend is already a great thing.

"How is the situation?"

Chen Mo asked.

His voice resonated directly in Xiongba's and the Snow Fox Leader's minds, startling them.

However, the Snow Fox Leader Bingli quickly recovered, lowered its head, and answered respectfully:

"Your Majesty, the Ice Lion Legion has successfully occupied Egypt, subjugating a total of 37 species of undead creatures, 342 individuals."

"We have discovered 46 kinds of undead‑type spirit plants and 2 specimens of divine medicine."

"In addition, we have established undead farms and pastures near the Pyramid Secret Realm, but the Great Spirit Rain Technique of the Frost Sheep has no effect on these undead spirit plants."

"Not bad."

Hearing that, Chen Mo was slightly stunned.

He had originally only intended to control the Pyramid Secret Realm and its surrounding area, but he did not expect the Ice Lion Legion to outright occupy Egypt!?
