Douro Continent

Chapter 590 Ten Thousand Years, King of the Demon Soul Great White Shark

"I can't stand it anymore, I really can't stand it. These two guys are just too sleazy..." Ma Hongjun said this, but he didn't dare to go up and expose the two brothers. His bad record was much worse than those two sleazy guys.

However, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, the parties involved, had already softened their expressions. Ning Rongrong looked at Oscar, who was gazing at her tenderly, and couldn't help but raise her hand to touch the scar on his face. Although she knew that Oscar and Dai Mubai's explanations for each other contained an element of exoneration, the five years Oscar had been her weakness, especially when she saw the scar on his face, her heart softened immensely.

Zhu Zhuqing's situation was similar to hers. She asked in a low voice, "You...you really told Xiao Ao that if we couldn't pass the family test, you would..."

Dai Mubai sighed and said, "When you first came to Shrek Academy, I understood your purpose. You came to urge me on. Actually, how could I want to drag you down with me? I had already made up my mind then. If I couldn't pass the family's assessment in the future, I would take full responsibility and do everything I could to protect you. As a man, how could I drag a woman down? Later, as we spent more and more time together, I fell hopelessly in love with you. My heart began to become selfish. I didn't want to die because I wanted to spend every beautiful day of the future with you, to spend every spring, summer, autumn, and winter together. So, I started to cultivate desperately, not for survival, but just so that I could spend more time with you."

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were a little red. She knew that Dai Mubai and Oscar's previous conversation had an element of acting, but she could deeply feel that what Dai Mubai was saying now came from the bottom of his heart.

What happened in the past doesn't matter. What matters is that this man loves only her now, and that's enough. Why dwell on the past? Besides, neither Zhu Zhuqing nor Ning Rongrong intended to be too serious. They simply wanted to give their men a little warning. Now that both men are showing their true feelings, their warnings naturally fall flat.

Bai Chenxiang pinched the fat man's waist, "Look at him, he's willing to sacrifice so much for his lover. And you call him sleazy. Humph, I think it's you who's sleazy inside."

"I..." The fat man was speechless for a moment. "Xiangxiang, you have to believe me! I'm willing to give everything for you."

Hearing this, Bai Chenxiang's gaze softened slightly. Fatty had always stood in front of her without hesitation when facing danger; it was impossible for her not to be moved. Although Fatty's appearance couldn't compare to Dai Mubai or Tang San, the sense of security she felt with him was undeniable.

Seeing that Bai Chenxiang seemed to agree with him, the fat man was overjoyed and quickly said seriously, "I'm going to cultivate. I also want to strive to reach level 70 as soon as possible and break through to the Soul Saint realm. That way, I can better protect you in the future." After saying that, he walked to the side, leaving Bai Chenxiang with his heavy back.

As the two couples came to understand each other, the atmosphere calmed down. Although Oscar's seventh soul skill was hilarious, there was no doubt that its effect had once again boosted the overall strength of the Shrek Seven Devils.

"Xiao San, can we try the second challenge now?" After appeasing Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai asked Tang San.

Tang San said, "We can start trying now. Before we go all out to break through, we must first figure out what kind of sea spirit beasts in the Ring Sea pose a threat to us, and roughly what their levels are." As he said this, a slight worry crept into his heart. He secretly prayed that his judgment wouldn't come true. Otherwise, this not-so-wide Ring Sea would truly be an insurmountable chasm.

Dai Mubai said, "Then you make the arrangements. We'll all listen to you."

Tang San's authority among the Seven Devils wasn't solely based on strength; his wisdom, perseverance, and comprehensive abilities earned him the deep respect of his companions. Even someone as arrogant as Dai Mubai would never challenge him for leadership.

Tang San said, "I already have a plan. I intend to take a trip around this circular sea. Observe carefully and see what kind of magical beasts are in the sea. Mu Bai, you and Zhu Qing, be ready to use the Netherworld White Tiger to meet me at any time. Rong Rong, buff me. Xiao Ao, will your Golden Fly work on soul bone skills?"

Oscar shook his head and said, "No, it can only amplify spirit ring skills. Self-created spirit skills, domain skills, and spirit bone skills are not included."

Tang San said, "Then give me an 'Excitement Pink Sausage'."

Oscar said, "Why don't you try my Mirror Image Sausage? Maybe you can't use your own soul skills, but you can use ours?"

Tang San smiled wryly, "No need to try. My spirit rings are all locked. Apart from my spirit power, even with your Mirror Image Sausage, I might not be able to use the copied skills. Don't worry. I have Instant Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body. Even if I can't clear the level, I can protect myself. If I don't have Invincible Golden Body to save my life, I'll leave this reconnaissance task to Boss Dai."

Without the Blue Silver Emperor's various skills and the two domains unleashed in his Martial Soul True Form state, Tang San knew that his overall strength was now inferior to his companions Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, who were also above level 70. Of course, if Tang San's endless stream of self-created soul skills and his full potential were unleashed, the outcome would still be difficult to predict.

Dai Mubai said, "Then let's begin. Let's see what exactly is blocking us from leaving Poseidon Mountain in this second trial."

Tang San nodded, his toes barely touching the ground as he darted forward. The increase in his soul power also greatly improved his Tang Sect martial arts. He stepped on Ghost Shadow Trail, leaving a faint afterimage behind him. Most peculiarly, his path appeared straight, yet it gave people an unpredictable feeling.

In a few flashes, Tang San had already reached the edge of the ring-shaped sea. He suddenly released his Blue Silver Domain, enhancing his senses, and simultaneously leaped into the air, heading straight for the ring-shaped sea. The instant his body lunged forward, he activated his Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone flight soul skill. Propelled by the powerful internal energy of the Mysterious Heaven Skill, his body shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for the sea.

boom--

Just as Tang San's body had leaped less than five meters off the land, the entire ring-shaped sea suddenly boiled. The already surging waves erupted almost instantly, crashing heavily against the golden light barrier ten meters above the sea level. Strangely, the rising seawater did not splash out of the ring-shaped sea at all; it neither impacted the land outside the ring-shaped sea nor reached Seagod Mountain. In that instant, Tang San's body was completely enveloped in the seawater. What the Shrek Seven Devils could see was a strange, deep blue underwater world.

A dazzling light shot out from Ning Rongrong's hand. Although she couldn't use her seventh soul skill, Nine Treasures True Body, her soul power had greatly increased, and the amplification speed was much faster than before. A total of six beams of light landed on Tang San almost simultaneously, amplifying his strength, agility, soul power, defense, attack, and attributes all at once, penetrating the seawater without reservation and landing on Tang San.

As the six beams of light entered the seawater, Ning Rongrong's expression changed drastically. She said in a deep voice, "The amplification effect of my Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda has been affected by the unknown energy in the seawater, weakening it by thirty percent. The actual amplification it brings to Third Brother is less than sixty percent." It should be noted that her amplification should originally have reached eighty percent. After the thirty percent reduction, the actual amplification is only slightly over fifty percent.

The blue-silver domain light emanating from Tang San illuminated his surroundings, not only for mental detection but also to allow his companions to see the situation in the water from the Seagod Mountain.

Tang San was instantly submerged in seawater, and he immediately noticed the problem. Immersed in the water, it seemed as if a special energy existed within it, slowing his movements and accelerating the consumption of his soul power. Even the range of his Blue Silver Domain was significantly reduced due to the resistance of the seawater. Currents constantly battered Tang San's body. Combined with the powerful buoyancy of the seawater, he immediately became unsteady.

Fortunately, Tang San had trained under the waterfall before and had some understanding of swimming; otherwise, with the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone propelling him forward, he probably would have lost control of his body immediately.

Despite Tang San's strong self-control, he still found it somewhat difficult to adapt to suddenly plunging into the water. This wasn't Tang San's first time underwater, but he clearly sensed that the water in this ring-shaped sea was different. Besides the restrictive energy, the resistance in the water was unusually high. Most importantly, Tang San didn't know how to move forward in the water. While the flight ability of his Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone could propel him, he still needed to adapt to the resistance in the water to move smoothly.

However, before Tang San could even adjust, he was already in grave danger. The arrow-shaped fish that had appeared when they first ascended Mount Seagod and attacked Bai Chenxiang suddenly appeared all around Tang San. Their speed in the water was incredible, even faster than when they had leaped out of the water and traveled through the air. In almost an instant, over a hundred arrow-shaped fish had surrounded Tang San, their bodies shrouded in blue-purple light, and dense soul power fluctuations wove a large net in the seawater, blocking all of Tang San's paths forward and backward.

Tang San had faced countless crises, and he remained completely calm in the face of this sudden encirclement. He had encountered far more dangerous situations before. Although the underwater environment was extremely unfamiliar to him, he reacted correctly in the shortest amount of time.

Holding his breath underwater was nothing to him, given that his cultivation had broken through to level 70. The internal energy of the Xuan Tian Gong circulated rapidly through his unobstructed meridians, forming a wonderful state of internal breathing. In this state, Tang San could maintain his breath for at least half an hour without feeling suffocated.

However, at this moment, Tang San also realized the importance of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover to himself. If he had the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, he wouldn't be in such a passive position. Not only could he quickly sink underwater, unaffected by the turbulent currents, but he also wouldn't need to use internal breathing to resist the feeling of suffocation.

Tang San suppressed the energy eruption from his right leg bone, and with a flash of black light, the Clear Sky Hammer, shimmering with faint demonic patterns, appeared in his left palm. The Clear Sky Hammer, which had evolved along with Tang San's strength, now weighed over a thousand pounds. Its sudden appearance in Tang San's hand immediately propelled his body rapidly downwards into the sea.

Previously, when Tang San hadn't made any movement, the arrow-shaped fish sea spirit beasts had simply surrounded his body. Now, as soon as he moved, the arrow-shaped fish immediately sprang into action, charging towards him simultaneously. In an instant, hundreds of arrow-shaped fish sea spirit beasts shot towards Tang San like countless sharp arrows imbued with spirit power. Judging from their stance, they wouldn't stop until they pierced through Tang San's body.

The Shrek Seven Devils on the shore could clearly see that when these arrowfish charged, their entire bodies turned into the same bluish-purple color that had previously enveloped them, like streaks of light, extremely dazzling. Tang San, in the ring-shaped sea, had no chance of hiding from so many arrowfish in the open water. The resistance of the water made it impossible for him to utilize his Ghost Shadow Perception technique effectively.

Dai Mubai and the others felt a tightening in their chests. They certainly didn't believe these arrowfish could harm Tang San. After breaking through to the Soul Saint realm, Tang San's strength could only be described as terrifying. These arrowfish appeared to be only around the level of thousand-year-old soul beasts; despite their large numbers, they weren't enough to threaten Tang San's life. However, the crucial point was a significant constraint on their second trial: harming any sea soul beast in the ring-shaped sea was forbidden during the trial. This meant that Tang San, wielding the Clear Sky Hammer, absolutely could not kill them. Judging from the arrowfish's charging speed, even if Tang San didn't attack, simply letting them crash into him would result in tragedy. The arrowfish's attacks were clearly suicidal. What would Tang San do? What could he possibly do?

Tang San quickly provided an answer. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand moved as if it were nothing, swinging diagonally from the lower left to the upper right, while his body spun once in the seawater. Even the turbulent seawater could not affect his speed.

A deep black light erupted from the Clear Sky Hammer. Although the Clear Sky Hammer had no spirit rings attached, it now fully displayed the terrifying explosive power of a top-tier weapon spirit. Wherever the black light reached, the seawater surged violently. The people who had already reached the shore clearly saw that the seawater around Tang San's body twisted violently. All the arrow-shaped fish that charged towards him were swept away by an invisible force in the water and scattered in all directions. They charged fast, but were swept away even faster. It was as if countless blue-purple rays of light shot out from Tang San's body and quickly dispersed. Tang San's body was no longer sinking, but was suspended in the water, obviously using his spirit power to control the weight of the Clear Sky Hammer.

However, the arrow-shaped fish sea spirit beasts' attack had only just begun. After being suddenly scattered, they quickly adjusted their positions in the ring-shaped sea and charged at Tang San again. This time, however, they didn't attack simultaneously. The hundred-odd arrow-shaped fish, with remarkable intelligence, divided into ten groups, launching a near-seamless wave-like attack on Tang San. Each group of more than ten sea spirit beasts charged, and after the first group was scattered by the Clear Sky Hammer, the second group immediately pounced. They seemed to know that Tang San wouldn't dare to harm them, and each wave of their attacks was more ferocious and swift than the last. The churned seawater constantly emitted distorted halos of light.

Faced with the arrow-shaped fish sea spirit beasts changing their attack methods, Tang San's expression remained calm and composed. The Clear Sky Hammer flew up and down in his left hand, and the force he used to shake off these arrow-shaped fish each time was just right. He could prevent them from rushing in front of him, and he could use the dark current brought up by the Clear Sky Hammer to blow them away without harming them.

As time went on, Tang San's body rapidly adapted to the pressure, resistance, and peculiar restrictive energy of the seawater. He was becoming somewhat impatient with the constant assaults of the arrowfish. After this period of experimentation, although he still didn't know exactly how much these arrowfish could withstand, he had his own methods.

Tang San continued to swing the Clear Sky Hammer, but the added soul power began to rise. With each charge, the arrow-shaped sea spirit beasts experienced a greater and greater back tremor, and their originally swift speed began to decrease as Tang San exerted his strength.

It's important to understand that Tang San was currently amplified by Ning Rongrong's six support abilities, making his soul power comparable to that of a Soul Douluo-level expert. His eight extraordinary meridians were unblocked, allowing him to recover energy at an incredibly fast pace. The threat posed by these arrow-shaped fish was far from sufficient; what truly drained his soul power was the suffocating sea. While internal breathing allowed him to endure for longer, it also caused his soul power consumption to increase steadily over time.

He sneered inwardly, thinking, "I'm not playing with you anymore." A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his soul power intensified once more. At the same time, as Tang San swung the Clear Sky Hammer, it generated a strange, rhythmic vibration. Even those on the shore could clearly see that with each swing of Tang San's hammer, the Clear Sky Hammer itself rippled with a circle of pure black light. When the arrow-shaped sea spirit beasts charged towards his body again, upon contact with the black light, they were thrown back as if electrocuted, losing their ability to move amidst trembling and spasms. They had actually been knocked unconscious.

Tang San was now using the "Zhen" technique, one of the Nine Absolute Techniques of the Clear Sky Sect, a secret art taught to him by Tang Hao. The Nine Absolute Techniques of the Clear Sky Sect are not nine skills or moves, but rather nine methods of generating power with the Clear Sky Hammer. Each has its own unique characteristics, making them the true secret arts of the Clear Sky Sect. Compared to the somewhat lackluster Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, the Nine Absolute Techniques of the Clear Sky Sect are truly powerful abilities applicable in actual combat. Back when Tang San sparred with the Seventh Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, the elder did not use the Nine Absolute Techniques of the Clear Sky Sect; otherwise, Tang San would never have been able to win.

Even among the direct disciples of the Haotian Sect, not everyone can receive the Nine Ultimate Techniques. Only with the joint approval of the sect leader and elders can they be taught. Just like the most profound hidden weapon techniques of the Tang Sect back then.

After carefully assessing the arrow-shaped fish sea spirit beast's resilience, Tang San easily neutralized the attack using the "Shock" technique. Nearly half of the hundred-plus arrow-shaped fish were stunned by his shock, and the rest dared not charge again, only daring to bluff from the outside, constantly weaving and interfering in the seawater around Tang San's body.

Tang San wasn't particularly good at swimming. However, he had his own method, which was simple: using his soul power to control his balance in the water. Once he had his balance, he would use his soul power to propel himself forward. Although this consumed a significant amount of his soul power and didn't allow him to travel very fast, it was the only method he could think of at the moment.

Having repelled the arrowhead fish, Tang San steadied himself and continued deeper into the ring-shaped sea. He had only ventured about twenty meters into the ring, still a long way from the opposite shore. He began familiarizing himself with the methods of navigating the water while cautiously observing his surroundings.

The two sides of the circular sea are only a little over two hundred meters apart, and Tang San has already entered one-tenth of the distance, with one hundred and eighty meters remaining to the other side. One hundred and eighty meters is nothing more than a blink of an eye for him on land. But although he has defeated the arrowfish, the remaining one hundred and eighty meters is clearly not so easy to cross.

With a flash, Tang San suddenly disappeared from his original spot. When he reappeared, his body had moved forward five meters. That's right, he used his Little Dance Soul Bone skill, Instant Teleportation.

When Tang San reappeared in the sea, his expression had turned grim. He finally understood the source of the mysterious energy in the seawater that was restricting him. On land, Tang San's teleportation could easily allow him to move anywhere within a hundred meters. This was the limit of Xiao Wu's soul bone. The Ring Sea was only two hundred meters wide; normally, he could reach the other side with just two teleportations. Since arriving here, Tang San hadn't used this almost superhuman skill. But this teleportation had greatly angered him. It wasn't that he hadn't used his full strength, but even at his best, he had only teleported five meters in the seawater. His hundred-meter teleportation ability had been compressed twentyfold. The limitations in the seawater were unimaginable. Tang San understood that the restrictive energy in the seawater was probably aimed at skills like teleportation or speed-boosting abilities, leaving his companions, who were undergoing the test, no chance to cheat.

Just as Tang San was feeling dejected after testing his teleportation, he suddenly sensed a strange fluctuation surging around him. It was an energy fluctuation, yet it also resembled a sound fluctuation. Where could a sound come from in seawater?

The next moment, Tang San immediately realized he was in trouble. The arrow-shaped fish-shaped sea spirit beasts that had been harassing him, though no longer daring to attack, had scattered and fled. These thousand-year-old spirit beasts, showing great loyalty, even took their stunned companions with them. In an instant, the sea around Tang San became quiet. A suffocating pressure spread throughout Tang San's entire body in that instant.

A huge dark shadow came from afar. Before Tang San could even see its shape clearly, an irresistible force surged from the seawater. Tang San only had time to protect his chest with the Clear Sky Hammer. Before he could make any further moves, he was sent flying by the surging dark current.

With a splash, Tang San burst out of the water and headed straight for Seagod Mountain. Although the Seagod's Light would no longer bring pressure to those who had passed the first test, the mission of protecting Seagod Mountain had not disappeared. Tang San felt his whole body go limp, as if he were sinking into a pile of cotton. The next moment, he was as if he were embedded in the Seagod's Light, slowly sliding down the mountainside.

At this moment, Tang Sancai clearly felt his blood and qi suddenly surge, and his whole body felt indescribably uncomfortable, as if every meridian had been injured.

The injuries weren't serious. Tang San felt like he'd been sent flying by the arrow-shaped fish before, and now he too had been thrown back by that sudden, immense force. His whole body shuddered and went limp. Only as his soul power circulated rapidly did this feeling of powerlessness gradually disappear.

Failure wasn't terrible; Tang San hadn't expected to pass the test directly. This was merely a test. What frustrated him, however, was that he didn't even know what had blasted him out of the Ring Sea. The moment he was struck by the dark current, his dispersed Blue Silver Domain was thrown into temporary chaos.

"Xiao San, are you alright?" Dai Mubai, who rushed over immediately, pulled Tang San up from the ground.

"I'm fine. What was that just now? Did you see it clearly?" Tang San asked anxiously.

Upon hearing his question, the faces of the people who had followed Dai Mubai all turned grim, and Dai Mubai's expression became extremely solemn.

Ma Hongjun said angrily, "Although I guessed this assessment would be abnormal, I didn't expect it to be this abnormal. We observed carefully, and apart from the arrow-shaped fish that attacked you at the beginning, only one other kind of sea spirit beast appeared, which was the sea spirit beast that attacked you at the end. There was only one of these sea spirit beasts."

Dai Mubai continued, "It was a white shark, about twenty-five meters long, but its enormous size didn't affect its agility at all. It was incredibly fast. From its appearance to its disappearance, it only took a few blinks of an eye. In the blink of an eye, you were already being blasted out by the blue light it emitted, which carried the seawater. Then it turned and left."

Tang San gasped. "A Demon Soul Great White Shark? There are Demon Soul Great White Sharks in this ring-shaped sea?"

Dai Mubai smiled wryly, "It's not just a simple Demon Soul Great White Shark. Do you remember what Purple Pearl said? She said that in the waters outside Seagod Island, there has always been a 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark guarding the sea, with a body length of about 20 meters. The Demon Soul Great White Shark just now was definitely over 20 meters long. Although you can't use your soul skills right now and are greatly restricted in the water, you were still under Rongrong's full amplification just now. The fact that it could knock you out of the water without you having any ability to resist clearly shows its identity."

Hearing Dai Mubai's explanation, Tang San's somewhat dazed mind cleared instantly, and the light in his eyes hardened considerably. He said in a deep voice, "Could it be that the one who attacked me just now was actually the King of the Demon Soul Great White Sharks, the 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark that guards Seagod Island? But how did it get into this ring-shaped sea?"

Oscar said, "Poseidon Island contains several inland seas, and these inland seas are not freshwater without salt. It's conceivable that this seawater also comes from the outer ocean. Therefore, there might be passages connecting these inland seas to the outer ocean beneath Poseidon Island. If so, it's not hard to explain why the Demon Soul Great White Shark King appeared here. It must have been attracted to this ring-shaped sea by our test, to prevent us from completing our mission. However, judging from the abilities it used when it attacked you just now, it doesn't seem to have any intention of harming us; it's just preventing us from crossing the sea."

Tang San nodded and said, "It seems that's how it is. Only this explanation makes sense. A 100,000-year-old soul beast. Lord Sea God really thinks highly of us! In the second test, he puts us to face the test of a 100,000-year-old soul beast."

The group exchanged bitter smiles, their faces turning quite grim.

Zhu Zhuqing said, "Hopefully, that Demon Soul Great White Shark won't launch a fatal attack on us. Otherwise, we'll have no chance of escaping unscathed when we pass through this ring-shaped sea."

A thought flashed through Tang San's mind. "That's right! Although the test we're undergoing is difficult, it's impossible for us to face a 100,000-year-old soul beast in the second test. While the test is challenging, it should still have some limitations. The condition for passing the test is simply to break through the blockade of the Ring Sea and reach the other side, not to defeat the 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark. Since it didn't kill me just now, we can tentatively assume that the 100,000-year-old Demon Soul Great White Shark's mission is only to block, not to annihilate. In this way, our chances of passing the test are quite high. Perhaps, this is also a good opportunity for us to improve our combat skills."

Ma Hongjun was stunned. "Enhance our combat capabilities? Third Brother, you don't mean you want us to fight that Demon Soul Great White Shark, do you?"

Tang San chuckled and said, "Why not? Facing a 100,000-year-old soul beast in seawater with its numerous restrictions and suffocating conditions—the pressure on us is unimaginable. And this 100,000-year-old soul beast won't actually harm us. Is there a better sparring partner? Not only will it improve our swimming skills, but it will also greatly enhance our combat abilities. This is the best way for us to train for the next nine months. Of course, the premise is that we must be sure that the Demon Soul Great White Shark really won't cause us any real harm."

Oscar suddenly realized, "So it seems the Sea God's trial isn't just a test, but also an opportunity for those who participate to cultivate. The trial we're facing is so difficult, but it also provides us with the best training methods. I agree with Xiao San's opinion. The first test, the Sea God's Light, is to hone our soul power, and this second test, breaking through the ring-shaped blockade, is very likely to hone our combat abilities. And specifically, combat abilities in the vast ocean full of resistance. It seems we have a chance to learn to swim this time."

Ma Hongjun swallowed hard, his face contorted in pain. "I hate water. I really hope that the Demon Soul Great White Shark King will go easy on me."

Dai Mubai chuckled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? No pain, no gain. No one succeeds easily. Come on, Xiao San, this time I'll go into the sea with you. Let's see if this Demon Soul Great White Shark will really hurt us."

Five minutes later.

Boom, boom—

Two figures burst from the boiling ring of sea, crashing heavily against the light of the sea god and slowly sliding down.

Dai Mubai scrambled to his feet, grimacing, and said, "This King of Great White Sharks really doesn't give me any face! My bones are about to fall apart."

Tang San said with a bitter face, "You're doing alright. You're the first time, this is my second. But now we can be pretty sure that this Demon Soul Great White Shark King doesn't mean us any harm. The attack method it used, which is similar to the one I used to stun the Arrow-shaped Fish Sea Soul Beast, seems more like a prank."

It's the last day of August, and I'm frantically asking for monthly votes! It'll be a waste if you don't vote now! Everyone, please vote for the mistress! Tomorrow's update time will be announced later.
