From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 683 The Demonic Deep-Sea Whale King in His Demonic Transformation!

Beneath this deep sea, the secret realm that once held the promise of developing into the world of Bikini Bottom has accumulated a vast amount of world energy due to its destruction. This energy is an invaluable tonic for both soul beasts and soul masters.

However, ordinary soul masters and soul beasts cannot descend to this place. Even if the Evil Eye Tyrant came, he could only reach this far, but he could not absorb the world energy of the secret realm space here.

Here, both Chen Hong and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King felt an unprecedented pressure. Of course, Chen Hong only felt the pressure, but his actions were not affected. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, on the other hand, benefited from its powerful water-type talent, which allowed it to adapt to the terrifying water pressure here.

The world energy contained in the secret realm guarded by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is like the millennia-old ice marrow beneath the far north. Just as the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was able to become a million-year-old soul beast by consuming ice marrow, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King can also advance to a million-year-old soul beast by consuming the world energy contained within this light screen.

However, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King dared not advance to become a million-year soul beast, because the tribulation of a million-year soul beast was extremely dangerous. Moreover, through Chen Hong's experiment, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King understood that the examiner of the million-year tribulation was the God King of the God Realm!

This rule is utterly disgusting—no, disgusting to spirit beasts—but upon reflection, it seems quite reasonable. Perhaps in the past, some Dragon Kings would have been the examiners, allowing the spirit beasts to pass safely. But now, the Dragon Kings have been replaced by God Kings, which adds a touch of dark humor.

In any case, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King understood that given the God Realm's prejudice against a million-year-old soul beast like himself, he would not be let go.

"Probably. If the million-year bottleneck weren't such a huge pitfall, I would have been able to break through to the million-year soul beast realm a long time ago." Deep in the sea, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, whose body was over seven or eight hundred meters long, opened its blood-red maw and sucked water directly into the light screen below. The almost liquid energy in the light screen was sucked into its mouth like jelly and then digested in its body.

At this moment, the massive body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was covered with ferocious and domineering purple-blue scales, the ends of which were studded with sharp spikes, making its defensive and offensive capabilities seem astonishing. Furthermore, its body was also covered with mysterious golden, purple, and blue divine patterns, as well as extremely bloodthirsty and domineering red demonic patterns.

The appearance of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has changed drastically. A kind of primordial power, as if from the wilderness, has begun to appear on his body. Red demonic patterns have been drawn around his eyes and then spread to his back. In the eyes that were originally blinded by the power of the Sea God's laws, a layer of wild red demonic patterns has begun to emerge, directly polluting and devouring the Sea God's power left on his eyeballs, directly forming a blood-red demonic eye!

At the same time, the tail of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King also began to change. The original single tail gradually separated, and a secondary tail and ventral fins grew out. There were even tentacles that evolved from tentacles hidden in the huge and domineering tail fins!

"You're right. That cluster of Honkai Seeds unexpectedly caused my body to develop antibodies and undergo some kind of strange change. In human terms, my body is gradually evolving into a divine body amidst the Honkai."

Of course, I don't think this approach would be more accurate in describing the body as divine or demonic.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King glanced at its current body, its scarlet demonic eyes surveying this new world, then looked at the twelve-winged divine shadow that had penetrated directly into the light curtain and was meditating and cultivating within that terrifying compressed energy, and muttered.

Ye Lingling placed a mass of "cancer-causing substance" inside the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. This substance was originally intended to be Chen Hong's "ninth soul ring," but Chen Hong ultimately chose to leave this mass of "cancer-causing substance" to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, opting for a sacrifice to obtain his own ninth soul ring.

"So you anticipated this situation back then?" A hint of apprehension flashed in the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's crimson eyes.

"I just felt that this might be an opportunity." Feeling his body filled with various energies, greedily devouring the world energy in this already destroyed secret realm, Chen Hong slowly opened his heterochromatic eyes and looked at the scarlet demonic eyes of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King should actually be called something else at this moment.

For example, the Demon God of the Abyss!

However, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has not yet completed its final deification; it is still some distance from becoming a Deep Sea Demon God. Furthermore, there is already a Deep Sea Demon God within the Abyss.

"Crisis and opportunity often go hand in hand. I've looked into the Seed of Honkai project. Behind the near-death experience lies a terrifying potential for infinite evolution. But seeing how strong your vitality is, I think you should be able to withstand it." Chen Hong explained why he didn't take the Seed of Honkai from the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's body back then.

"Of course, there were also factors that were there to check and balance you." Chen Hong frankly revealed his true thoughts at the time.

"I think I understand. You always use a method that everyone agrees on to cover up your true purpose. The purpose that the outside world believes in is actually just something you've been trying to maintain, and its purpose is to cover up your true purpose." The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was silent for a while, and then said in a deep voice.

"Including your body, every seemingly obvious thing is actually the result of various calculations and trade-offs. You are really scary. You have accomplished the 'unknown' within everyone's known knowledge."

Looking at the twelve sacred wings behind Chen Hong, the calm lake of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was suddenly stirred into a monstrous storm.

At first, he thought many things were just coincidences.

But when he looked at Chen Hong from an absolute perspective, he suddenly realized that many things were entirely driven by Chen Hong himself. If some people are heroes created by their times, then Chen Hong was the terrifying figure who actively created those times.

Even the descent of the Asura God King was entirely within Chen Hong's subjective will! If Chen Hong wanted the Asura God King to descend, then the Asura God King would inevitably descend! And if Chen Hong did not want the Asura God King to descend, then the Asura God King would not appear in the Douluo Realm!

If everyone else plays cards based on the environment and their hand, then Chen Hong is the director who makes you play whatever cards he tells you to play!

"If we go through all the scenarios, we'll eventually find a solution. And don't blame me, you've also kept a lot of cards up your sleeve, haven't you?" Chen Hong said softly to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, looking at the secret realm world that had consumed most of its energy and was beginning to recover its original appearance.
