Chapter 569 A Super 100,000 Years, Overlord of the Sea

"Seven in one!" Tang San shouted these four words almost hoarsely. He activated the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone flight skill and flashed to the front in an instant.

Unless you truly face it, you'll never understand the terror of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. He had seen more than one: Da Ming, Er Ming, and even Xiao Wu. He hadn't witnessed Xiao Wu's 100,000-year-old strength. But regardless, Xiao Wu herself wasn't a particularly powerful soul beast. He had personally witnessed the strength of Da Ming and Er Ming. Even a fusion skill formed by two Title Douluos couldn't harm them.

At this moment, however, the enormous demonic whale below gave him an even more profound feeling. Haider was not lying; the strength of this 100,000-year-old demonic whale was definitely above that of Daming and Erming, making it the true overlord of the sea.

With a shout, seven Blue Silver Emperors suddenly flew out from Tang San's body, tightly binding his seven companions and forcefully throwing them behind him.

The Shrek Seven Devils had been together for so many years, and although they were still a bit dizzy, they all reacted as quickly as possible to Tang San's desperate roar.

Flaming wings suddenly unfurled behind Ma Hongjun. Stabilizing himself, he pulled the unconscious Bai Chenxiang into his arms. At this moment, he harbored no wicked thoughts. Simultaneously, he flapped his wings, rapidly straightening Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor, ensuring the seven entangled figures remained in a straight line.

Oscar only had time to create two flying mushroom sausages. He swallowed one himself and threw the other to Dai Mubai. He also grabbed Lan Yinhuang, just like Ma Hongjun had done. With his other hand, he pulled Ning Rongrong along. Ning Rongrong, in turn, held Xiao Wu tightly in her arms.

At this moment, the seven people no longer had time to support the body of the person in front of them, and could only barely maintain their straight-lined position. Even so, each of them could clearly feel the immense pressure, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down. This pressure was even more terrifying than that of the Sword Douluo back then.

The overwhelming blue expanse made them feel as if they had entered another world. The distorted space and incredibly powerful attacks made them feel like a small, broken boat in the sea, on the verge of capsizing at any moment. What made their situation even more perilous was that, at this moment, Tang San was the only one among the seven to have released his Martial Soul. Although Oscar could release his Martial Soul instantly, his ability was to create sausages; even if he wanted to eat Mirror Sausage, it would be too late. The blue water curtain would inevitably arrive before they could release their Martial Souls.

At times like these, it's not just about teamwork, but more importantly, the role of the team leader. Tang San, at the very front, gleamed with a sharp light in his eyes. In this life-or-death moment, he bore the greatest pressure, and it was under this pressure that he unleashed his strongest potential.

Tang San's six spirit rings were exceptionally conspicuous in the air, each ring gleaming with dazzling light. The Eight Spider Lances were retracted behind him, his right fist clenched, his right arm raised vertically in front of his chest, and his eyes shone brightly. With a low roar, a layer of intense golden light suddenly erupted from his right arm. It was the Invincible Golden Body spirit skill attached to Xiao Wu's spirit bone.

This time, Tang San's Invincible Golden Body did not cover his entire body. Under the forceful intervention of his mental power, the effect of the Invincible Golden Body was forced out of his body, forming a golden light shield with a diameter of two meters.

Don't underestimate this change. This seemingly simple change caused the light in Tang San's eyes to dim suddenly, and his mental strength to drop significantly. But only in this way could he completely protect his companions behind him.

A sound like raindrops pattering on banana leaves came from in front of them, and the absolute defensive effect of the Invincible Golden Body forcefully blocked the blue rain of light. But the powerful impact also propelled Tang San and his companions high into the air. The moment the rain of light was blocked, before the full three seconds had even elapsed, the golden light released from Tang San's right arm had already shattered and scattered into countless specks of light.

This shield wasn't an invincible golden body, and Tang San couldn't fully control it. But regardless, it ultimately withstood that fatal blow.

In this short time, Oscar quickly made several flying mushroom sausages and gave one to each of the people who could not fly.

The deep-sea demon whale seemed to be enraged. A huge blue light, more than five meters in diameter, condensed at the front of its mountain-like back. The terrifying blue light only condensed for a moment before it shot out, heading straight for Tang San.

Tang San clearly sensed that this blue light was the same attack method that had surged up from underwater and destroyed the Sea Demon. Compared to the light rain just now, this was the Deep Sea Demon Whale's true attack method.

In the dark night sky, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred. Everyone clearly felt that although they were in the air, they were as if they were in the middle of a vast ocean. The surrounding air exhibited a peculiar undulating state, and the invisible resistance made them feel as if they were immersed in the deep sea. But this ocean made of air possessed even stronger resistance, an even more irresistible resistance.

A domain—only the power of a domain could control such a vast area of ​​the sky. This was the domain of the 100,000-year-old soul beast, the Deep Sea Demon Whale. Even though the Shrek Seven Devils already possessed the ability to fly, they were currently unable to leave quickly.

There was no chance to dodge or catch one's breath; the terrifying blue light shot into the sky.

Just as Tang San was preparing to use his Invincible Golden Body again to defend himself, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him.

"The Netherworld White Tiger"

Zhu Zhuqing nestled into Dai Mubai's embrace like a fledgling swallow, and the next moment, an incredibly intense white light illuminated the sky. Under that light, Tang San felt a sudden lightness throughout his body. The pressure from the domain had lessened considerably.

A colossal white tiger, over twelve meters long, appeared out of thin air, its wings unfurling. Before its massive body met the giant blue light, it turned its head and glanced at Tang San. Its enormous tiger eyes were filled with domineering power, as if to say to Tang San, "We are one; how can you bear this alone?"

Six beams of colorful light instantly poured into the back of the giant white tiger without reservation. Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda was finally released, and all six layers of amplification fell on the Netherworld White Tiger. At the same time, everyone else also received an additional defensive amplification.

A dazzling silver light erupted from the mouth of the Netherworld White Tiger. This Netherworld White Tiger Strike was their strongest attack to date. Its power was enough to rival that of a Soul Douluo at full power. Even Zhao Wuji's eighth soul skill had only resulted in a draw.

However, in the ocean, this 200-meter-long, 100,000-year-old deep-sea demon whale gave the Shrek Seven Devils a profound lesson: in the face of absolute power, everything else is insignificant.

The full power of the Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul Fusion Skill, coupled with Ning Rongrong's full amplification from her six powerful enhancement skills, brought the Netherworld White Tiger's power at that moment extremely close to the level of a Title Douluo. Any Soul Douluo-level Soul Master facing them at that moment would be easily annihilated without exception.

However, the Deep Sea Demon Whale was not a Title Douluo. Just before the huge blue water column rushed up the body of the Netherworld White Tiger, Tang San suddenly had a strange ominous premonition.

"Not good. Everyone be careful." As he spoke, he flashed to the front again, his body positioned directly in front of the Netherworld White Tiger's massive head. A burst of intense golden light erupted once more as Tang San shielded Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing with his body.

boom--

In the next instant, all seven members of the Shrek Seven Devils felt their bodies being immersed in a blue world. They lost their direction and the ability to control themselves; everything around them seemed to be becoming unreal. The unparalleled power filled each of them with a sense of powerlessness, and the terrifying aura caused them to experience such a strong sense of fear for the first time.

Whether it was Tang San, or Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing who had transformed into the Netherworld White Tiger, or the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils who were hidden behind them, they were all shot into the sky like cannonballs in an instant, scattering in all directions.

The worst off were Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. Their Netherworld White Tigers were almost instantly annihilated by the terrifying blue beam of light, and the two were sent flying backward, spitting out blood. If Tang San hadn't appeared just in time and blocked the center of the blue beam of light, they would probably have been completely disintegrated by it by now.

However, thanks to the Netherworld White Tiger's massive body and Tang San's second use of the Invincible Golden Body, they barely managed to withstand the attack of the blue light pillar. The others only experienced the enormous impact force, without the explosive and terrifying disintegrating force.

Tang San was in the best condition at this moment. Xiao Wu's 100,000-year-old soul bone granted him the invincible golden body skill, which was indeed abnormal. Even under such a terrifying attack, his body was only thrown into the sky, but he still remained conscious.

At the critical moment, years of combat experience and physical instincts allowed Tang San to clearly grasp the surrounding situation. He suddenly took a deep breath and unleashed his two Blue Silver Emperor swords. Extending beyond their limits to over a hundred meters, they entangled Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, who were already in a coma. Then, he abruptly flung the two of them into the air, flying towards Oscar and Ma Hongjun not far away, roaring, "Take them, get out of here!"

After that unparalleled strike, the distorted fluctuations in the air noticeably weakened, and the restrictions on the body were no longer so terrifying.

After saying this, Tang San turned around without hesitation and rushed straight towards the deep-sea demon whale below. Purple-gold light shot out from his eyes, and purple-level divine light erupted. His target was the deep-sea demon whale's only remaining right eye.

Tang San wasn't unwilling to run. With his strength and the assault skills of his Killing God Domain, he had every opportunity to break through the Deep Sea Demon Whale's domain and escape. However, he knew very well that this Deep Sea Demon Whale would not give up until it had destroyed them all. They no longer had the ability to unleash powerful skills like the Netherworld White Tiger. If everyone tried to escape together, they would likely face total annihilation. As the strongest soul among the Seven Devils, he wouldn't give himself a second choice at this moment: to sacrifice himself so his companions could escape. At this moment, he didn't even consider the possibility of his own survival; he only had the unwavering desire to create an escape opportunity for the others. There were his brothers, companions, and lover there. This was also why Tang San didn't immediately retrieve Xiao Wu from his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch. He was willing to die himself, but he couldn't bear to let Xiao Wu die with him, even if only her body remained. During the downward lunge, Tang San exerted all his mental strength to suppress the fluctuations of Xiao Wu's soul within his sixth soul ring, refusing to let her leave his body and take control of his physical form to help him.

Boom— The light from the Purple Demon Eye slammed heavily into the Deep Sea Demon Whale's right eye, but it only struck a layer of blue watery light. This attack, concentrating Tang San's strongest spiritual power, only made the Deep Sea Demon Whale blink. Of course, it was this very attack that thoroughly enraged the Deep Sea Demon Whale. Within the enormous black hole behind it, blue light condensed once more, and the terrifying blue orb of light appeared again.

In mid-air, Ma Hongjun caught Dai Mubai, now holding both Dai Mubai and Bai Chenxiang in his arms. He roared hoarsely, "Third Brother—"

"The mistress!" Oscar screamed as well, tears streaming down the faces of the two grown men. However, neither of them followed. Oscar had caught Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong was carrying Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun was with two other people. They could disregard their own lives, but they couldn't disregard their companions.

"Go." With Dai Mubai unconscious and Tang San absent, Oscar became the leader. He used almost all his strength to utter this single word. Tang San had given up his chance to live for them, and Oscar's reason ultimately prevailed over his emotions. The lives of his more companions forced him to make the most correct, yet most painful, decision.

"Third Brother..." Ning Rongrong, pulled by Oscar and aided by the power of the flying mushroom sausage, took flight, tears streaming uncontrollably down her face. She didn't even have a chance to help Tang San, because he had already flown far, far away.

At this moment, Tang San felt no fear whatsoever. No matter how powerful the opponent, once a person has disregarded life and death, they are no longer affected by emotional fluctuations. Instantaneous teleportation activated. Tang San performed the longest instantaneous teleportation of his life. Simultaneously, he activated the final invincible golden body effect possessed in his right arm bone.

When his body disappeared and reappeared, he was already on the back of the enormous blue whale, right above its black hole brimming with terrifying power, his body completely immersed in the blue light. Thanks to the effect of his invincible golden body, he was actually at the very center of that world-destroying power.

Tang San has gone mad? No, he hasn't. To buy his companions a chance to escape, he had to block the Deep Sea Demon Whale's attack. Otherwise, his companions still wouldn't be able to escape. Therefore, he chose a path that meant certain death.

The eight spider spears, imbued with the golden light of an invincible golden body, plunged fiercely into the surrounding black hole, their lengths perfectly suited to complete the task. The crimson spears suspended Tang San's body suspended in the very center of the black hole. Each spear erupted with an unprecedented crimson light.

Unreservedly unleashing its deadly poison, relentlessly absorbing and inhaling it. "Come on, you bastard. Even in death, I'll drain a fraction of your life essence."

Tang San's eyes no longer held only coldness and killing intent, but also unparalleled rage. Knowing he was doomed, he disregarded his body's limits and channeled all of his Xuan Tian Gong into the Eight Spider Lances, maximizing their devouring power to an unprecedented level.

Tang San knew he only had three seconds to devour everything. How much he could devour in those three seconds would determine whether his companions could escape and whether Xiao Wu could escape as well.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale is indeed incredibly powerful, but it also has an irreparable weakness: its enormous size. If Tang San were to use this technique against Da Ming and Er Ming, both 100,000-year-old soul beasts but weaker than the Deep Sea Demon Whale, even with his Invincible Golden Body, he would still be sent flying. While the Invincible Golden Body is immune to physical attacks, it is completely vulnerable to their impact. The reason the Deep Sea Demon Whale's attack sent him flying was because it contained a significant amount of water, not just energy.

However, at this moment, all that condensed behind the Deep Sea Demon Whale was intense blue light; the water inside its body had already been expelled by the two consecutive bombardments. This meant that although the blue light condensing behind it possessed terrifying power, it was unable to shake Tang San off.

The eight spider spears not only penetrated deeply into the body of the deep-sea demon whale, but the barbs on each of the eight spider spears also popped out completely, embedding Tang San's body entirely into the black hole.

The Eight Spider Lances' Devouring skill was already extremely terrifying, and Tang San's full activation of it brought its full potential to the fore.

If you look closely, you can clearly see that the back of the deep-sea demon whale, which was pierced by the Eight Spider Spears, is convulsing violently, and large streams of red light are rushing into Tang San's body along the Eight Spider Spears, stimulating his meridians.

Tang San's body is indeed incredibly strong. The transformation of his 100,000-year-old soul bone and the forging of two immortal-grade medicinal herbs have given him a physique that is unimaginably powerful. His meridians are even more resilient than those of the Blue Silver Emperor, and his body is stronger than steel.

Under the full force of absorption, Tang San's body swelled up, somewhat like the Porcupine Douluo he had faced before, but his skin had turned blood red.

The deep-sea demon whale was enraged. For how many years? At least ten thousand years, no one had dared to so blatantly challenge its majesty, inflicting such injuries upon it. The intense pain from the neurotoxins in its back, along with the frantically devoured life force, filled it with a nameless fear. It could clearly feel the mad aura emanating from behind it.

Although the human's strength was far too insignificant compared to himself, the madness he displayed made even a super-powerful being like the Deep Sea Demon Whale tremble.

When a person is afraid, as long as they don't back down, they often unleash their most powerful energy. The Deep Sea Demon Whale was no exception. Above the sea, all the light became viscous at this moment. The seawater seemed to have stopped flowing, and a ring of blue light, almost tangible, rapidly spread out from the center of the Deep Sea Demon Whale's massive body.

In just one second, this enormous ring had expanded to a radius of ten miles, and the next moment, a roar that made the sea tremble resounded.

The deafening roar sent panic through the city of Hanhai, hundreds of miles away, and caused two nearby islands to tremble. Even the islands themselves developed tiny cracks.

Within a ten-mile radius, the sea boiled, seawater shooting hundreds of meters into the air. It condensed into a crystalline blue, exploding in an instant. If there were an army here, this single attack would have been enough to cause over ten thousand casualties. If there were a mountain here, it would have caused a cataclysmic earthquake. This is the sea, hence the tsunami that soared into the sky.

Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and the others felt a sudden surge of power rising from below. Although they had already flown a great distance, under the propulsion of this immense force, their bodies were launched like cannonballs, turning into small black dots in the air in the blink of an eye until they disappeared.

They were lucky; after all, the blow that made even the sea groan was not directed at them.

In Tang San's mind, those three seconds should have been the last three seconds of his life. An immense amount of life force and energy surged into his body, making him clearly feel his meridians expanding to their limits. He suddenly wondered, if both of his martial souls absorbed spirit rings, would it be the same after reaching a certain level?

Scenes flashed through his mind. Twenty years had passed since he came to this world, allowing him to live twenty more years than he had ever known. If there was anything he couldn't bear to part with, it was that he hadn't been able to revive Xiao Wu, nor had he witnessed his parents' reunion or the destruction of the Spirit Hall.

A strong blue light emanated from the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, spreading throughout every corner of Tang San's body, making his already extremely resilient meridians even more robust. He didn't explode despite the massive energy entering his body.

However, all of that seemed unimportant now. He could certainly feel the massive tremors outside, and the waves crashing from the ocean couldn't affect his body; he was inside the enormous black hole of the Blue Whale. But when those tens of thousands of tons of water condensed in the air and crashed down, the golden light on Tang San's body vanished.

At this moment, Tang San's body was already like a sphere, but he was still constantly devouring. He knew that the more he devoured, the greater the damage he would cause to the Deep Sea Demon Whale, and the safer his companions would be.

With his invincible golden body protecting him gone, Tang San's body was enveloped in the blue light behind the Deep Sea Demon Whale, and the Eight Spider Lances were the first to be damaged.

The crimson eight spider spears, growing even more ferocious with each devouring attack, shattered inch by inch amidst the terrifying blue light. Tang San's spherical body was instantly propelled into the sky, bearing the weight of tons of seawater falling from above.

Under the immense energy control of the deep-sea demon whale, the seawater was no different from a heavy hammer. Instead of directly disintegrating Tang San's body, he chose this method to make this insignificant human who had caused him pain suffer even greater pain until he died.

In mid-air, Tang San had given up resisting, knowing he could no longer withstand the rage of the injured Deep Sea Demon Whale. However, Xiao Wu within him refused to give up. Her sixth spirit ring finally shone. A brilliant red light enveloped Tang San's entire body, instantly making him appear ethereal. It was the ethereal effect.

While under the Void effect, physical attacks are immune, and energy attacks deal 50% less damage.

The massive wave that crashed down from the sky was both a physical attack and an energy attack. The moment Tang San activated his Void Skill, he was already bathed in this boundless seawater and was swallowed up by a deafening roar.

Although his Void skill granted him immunity to physical attacks, the sheer force of the cascading water, the instant it touched Tang San's body, overwhelmed him with immense pressure, causing him to lose consciousness. In the final moments before he lost consciousness, all that remained in his mind was the image of the girl in flowing white robes, her hair as black as clouds…

In the eyes of the deep-sea demon whale, Tang San was nothing more than an ant. But it was precisely because this ant-like being had injured him and devoured a large amount of his energy that this giant, who had lived in the deep sea for countless years, became truly enraged.

As Tang San's body was swallowed by the massive seawater, the red glow in the Deep Sea Demon Whale's single eye gradually faded. Its enormous body twisted slightly, seemingly enjoying the impact of the cascading water. What was deadly water for Tang San was nothing to it.

His body began to spin, his single eye fixed on the direction where the group had been blasted away. Those who had violated his dignity would not survive. That short distance was but a fleeting moment to him. In this vast ocean, other spirit beasts might hesitate to intrude on someone else's territory, but when had he ever cared? Here, he was the true overlord. It must be said that the place Haider chose was arguably the most dangerous in the entire ocean.

However, just as the Deep Sea Demon Whale was about to turn and hunt down the Shrek Seven Devils who had been blasted away, it suddenly stopped, its single eye looking back at the sky. Its massive body twisted uncomfortably. Distorted fluctuations appeared in the air once more, releasing its sea domain once more.

Right above his head, in mid-air, Tang San, who should have been shattered and merged with the sea, was suspended there. Around his body, a blue three-dimensional triangle enveloped him.

The blue triangular object was exceptionally dazzling in the air. For some reason, upon seeing it, even the powerful Deep Sea Demon Whale fell silent. Its single eye emitted a light of intense hatred, yet within that hatred lay a trace of fear.

The blue light in the air suddenly intensified, and a beam of blue light shot out from the tip of the blue triangle. The blue light magnified instantly in the air, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a huge phantom that was hundreds of meters tall.

The phantom was blurry, and it could only be vaguely discerned that it was a human. Looking at the sky through the blue phantom, the originally dark sky became clear, and the light of every star could be seen.

"You beast." An aged and deep voice echoed from the sky, a sound whose direction was impossible to discern, seemingly the oppressive force of the heavens descending. The distorted sea domain in the air had already vanished silently when the enormous blue phantom appeared, transforming into wispy blue light that merged into the phantom, giving it a more substantial feel.

"Woo—" A deep hum emanated from the deep-sea demon whale. Its massive body involuntarily retreated slowly upon seeing the enormous phantom appear, and the sea, which it had previously stirred up, suddenly calmed down. It was as still as a mirror, without a single ripple.

"Have you forgotten the lesson from twenty thousand years ago? Are you prepared to blind your other eye as well?" The aged voice rang out again. Although the air seemed clear, the deep-sea demon whale felt an unparalleled pressure. The pressure did not come from the air, but from the sea. The seawater, which he had previously controlled, suddenly transformed into the most terrifying cage, tightly locking his body.

"Woo—" The deep-sea demon whale roared again in unwillingness. Blue light began to appear on its huge body, and these spots mixed with the skin like fish scales. The deep-sea demon whale's body was also undergoing rapid changes.

"What? You think that by completing the process of transforming into a dragon and breaking through the limit of 100,000 years, you can offend my dignity?" The enormous blue phantom swayed slightly, and with its sway, even the entire sea trembled.

The immense twisting and squeezing sensation caused the deep-sea demon whale to roar in pain. The hateful light in its single eye quickly faded, leaving only fear.

"Considering the hard-won progress you've made over the years, I'll spare your life once more. Get out of here." The aged voice was filled with undeniable authority. The once-solid sea regained its vitality.

The massive body of the deep-sea whale sank almost immediately, its buzzing sound filled with the relief of surviving a catastrophe.

The sea truly became calm. The massive body of the deep-sea demon whale completely disappeared, leaving only the huge phantom in mid-air, the blue triangular object that had risen to the chest of the phantom, and Tang San, who was unconscious inside.

"Twenty thousand years. I hope this choice won't disappoint me. Twenty thousand years have passed, and I never expected that guy would actually complete the dragon transformation. It's a pity my power..."

The sighs only echoed in certain parts of the air, sounding more like soliloquy.

The phantom suddenly contracted, transforming into the tail flame of the blue triangle, which propelled the main body forward, landing in the distant sea.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Tang Sanchong slowly awoke from his deep sleep. He was awakened by excruciating pain. He could clearly feel that every meridian in his body was being cut as if by a knife. The pain, seemingly emanating from the depths of his soul, caused even his strong will to groan. His consciousness slowly returned to normal under the stimulation of the pain.

A rushing sound assaulted Tang San's ears, followed by a surge of icy water that engulfed his body. His breath caught in his throat as a liquid poured into his mouth, which was agape in pain. The salty, metallic taste instantly jolted him back to full alertness.

He sat up and coughed violently, spitting out all the liquid in his mouth, but the salty, fishy taste still lingered on his taste buds, making him feel indescribably uncomfortable.

The movement sent even more intense pain through every nerve in his body, and with a groan, Tang San couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood. He discovered that the blood he spat out was purple.

He took a few small breaths, endured the excruciating pain in his body, and sat up straight. Only then did he have time to observe his surroundings.

He realized that he had been lying on a beach, and the liquid that had rushed into his mouth was seawater. No wonder it was so salty.

"I'm not dead?" This was Tang San's first thought, and his mind quickly cleared. How could I not be dead?

Tang San subconsciously looked down at his body. Not only was he not dead, but all his body parts were still intact. However, the unbearable pain continued to assault his body.

His next move was to sense his own soul power. However, his purpose wasn't to check if his soul power was still there, but rather to examine the soul bone and soul ring that were intimately connected to him. Because within them lay Xiao Wu's soul!
