Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 221 Choice
A devastating storm swept across the entire isolated island and the surrounding seas.

The huge suction force of the storm created an extremely spectacular scene on the sea surface: a dragon sucking water!
Dozens or even hundreds of whirlpool water columns shot up into the sky, connecting with the clouds in the sky with a tremendous momentum.

“Such power…” Lin Rong looked through the void light curtain and saw with his own eyes a large island sinking to the bottom of the sea due to the self-explosion of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King. He sighed in his heart:

"The self-detonation of a 240,000-year-old demon whale is so powerful. If the soul beast that self-detonated was replaced by the deep-sea demon whale king that has cultivated for a million years, I can't imagine what kind of scene it would be."

The spectacular sight of the dragon sucking water lasted for several minutes, and the swirling water column rising from the sky finally fell back into the sea.

This also means that the period of time when the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King's self-destruction was most powerful has passed, and the storm of destruction has begun to gradually subside.

Taking into account the existence of the sea turtle and the sea snake, in order to prevent them from taking away the soul bone of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King, Lin Rong did not wait for the aftermath of the self-explosion to completely disappear. He walked out of the void with the old butler, resisted the aftermath of the self-explosion, and dived under the sea.

In the trench thousands of meters below the sea surface.

A hundred thousand year old soul ring with two circles of gold patterns and a blue and white crystal skull were left in a corner of the trench.

And next to it, there is a sapphire blue turtle shell with tiny cracks.

"It was a close call. I almost couldn't make it."

The turtle poked its head out of its shell, and the sea snake that was wrapped around its neck let go of it and lay weakly on the ground.

The islands sank to the bottom of the sea due to the self-explosion of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King, and they were also washed into the trench thousands of meters above the sea surface by the huge impact force generated by the explosion.

The turtle slowly crawled forward, looked at the spirit rings and spirit bones in front of it, and said regretfully:

"The spirit ring and spirit bone of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale Clan is truly a beautiful work of art. Unfortunately, we are not human spirit masters, so it is of no use to us."

But the turtle still planned to collect the blue and white soul bone and take it away, even though he could not use it. However, if any of the tribesmen planned to transform into humans in the future, this skull soul bone of the Three-eyed Demon Whale King would come in handy.

However, just before the turtle was about to touch the soul bone, the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon appeared in front of it and swung its tail, knocking it back to the spot.

"How is it possible? You are still alive!"

The turtle stood up slowly and looked at the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon in front of him, as if he couldn't believe that the other party could survive the self-explosion of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King.

"Not only is it still alive, but it also appears to be unharmed."

The sea snake that was resting on the ground immediately perked up upon seeing this, and quickly retreated to hide behind the turtle, looking as if it was facing a formidable enemy.

Suddenly, a young voice came from above them:

"Sapphire blue sea turtles are extremely rare. I never thought I would be able to encounter a turtle gem soul beast with a cultivation history of more than 200,000 years in the ocean."

"Blue-purple sea snakes are a bit rare, but it's a buy-one-get-two-free deal after all, so I can't be too picky."

Lin Rong and the old butler slowly descended to the surface of the trench. The surrounding sea water was isolated by the blue light shield emitted by a crystal blue triangular diamond crystal in his hand.

"Human? Wait, this is... the Heart of the Sea God of Lord Poseidon!"

The turtle stared at the Heart of Poseidon in the hands of the human child and couldn't help but guess:
"You, you are the successor of Lord Poseidon?"

Heart of Poseidon! After hearing these four words, the sea snake hiding behind the sea turtle also poked its head out curiously, spitting out its bright red tongue and looking forward.

They had all personally experienced the era when the first generation of Poseidon conquered the sea, and naturally had seen with their own eyes the triangular diamond-shaped crystal called the Heart of Poseidon on the trident of Poseidon.

There is no doubt about it, but the fact that it can block the water pressure of thousands of meters deep sea water can prove that this thing is the real Heart of the Sea God.

Seeing the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon shrink its body and wrap itself around Lin Rong's arm, they knew that the other party was a forerunner, and that the killing of the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King was also planned by the human in front of them.

"Why did you kill the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King? Did it do something that blasphemed the Lord of the Sea?"

Turtle asked again.

The Three-Eyed Demon Whale King and the Deep-Sea Demon Whale King are both from the Demon Whale clan. It is possible that if the Deep-Sea Demon Whale King could win over his fellow clansman to his camp, it would be possible.

In this regard, Lin Rong did not answer the turtle's question, but chose to express his doubts:

"Since ancient times, humans and beasts have been incompatible. Human soul masters must obtain soul rings from soul beasts to advance. Why do you believe in a god who was achieved by a human soul master?"

"Is it simply because he conquered the sea with his sheer strength?"

"As fellow sea soul beasts, why don't you support the Deep Sea Demon Whale King who has cultivated for a million years? Back then, it fought with Poseidon for the position of Sea God and lost to him by only half a move. If it had your help, the current Sea God might not be the current Poseidon."

After hearing the tone of Lin Rong's voice and the content of his words, the sea turtle and the sea snake knew that the other party was not the inheritor of the Sea God.

"You, a human being, actually know what happened back then!"

The turtle did not answer this question, as if it was very secretive about what happened that year. Instead, the sea snake hiding behind the turtle spoke.

In response to this, Lin Rong smiled calmly and said:
"Did not say?"

"Let me guess. It's because the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is so proud of his status that he never leaves the sea where he lives, nor does he force you to submit to him. But Poseidon ignored your wishes and used force to subdue you."

"As soul beasts, you are jealous of each other and you are cowardly in the face of power. So you chose a human between Poseidon and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, right?"

After hearing this, the turtle's eyes were obviously evasive, which indirectly confirmed that Lin Rong's guess was correct.

"I have no intention of pursuing what happened back then. I hunted the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King only to obtain his soul bones."

Lin Rong walked forward with the Heart of Poseidon in his hand, getting closer and closer to the location of the turtle.

"You, the turtle and the snake, have abilities similar to the martial soul fusion skills of our human soul masters, and one of you is a gem soul beast, which is very suitable for the two of them."

"Right now, I only give you two choices."

"One, you voluntarily submit, and when needed, sacrifice your spirit rings and spirit bones. After the two of them inherit the throne, they will resurrect you and make you a true divine beast."

"Second, you would rather die than surrender, but I will knock you out and imprison you until the two of them grow big enough to absorb your spirit rings and spirit bones, and then hunt you down."

"Don't rush to answer. You only have one chance to choose. After all, it involves life and death. Think it over before you speak!"
