Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body

The sunlight poured down from behind, casting an endless, enormous shadow on the vast sea, enveloping the hundred-mile expanse of ocean.

The once mighty and domineering Deep Sea Demon Whale King now appears small and frail compared to the towering giant body of the previous king.

The extreme reversal of body size and aura caused the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's gaze to freeze briefly.

It has dominated this sea area for nearly a million years, seen countless human powerhouses who have reached the top of the Douluo plane, and witnessed countless peak battles of ultimate combat power.

But it had never seen such a majestic and terrifying human form in its life.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's pupils suddenly contracted violently, and the anger in his eyes was replaced by extreme shock.

The immense pressure emanating from the giant's body penetrated its flesh and reached its soul, causing an unprecedented chill to creep into its very depths, a chill that had not been felt for millions of years.

A chilling coldness spread rapidly along the meridians of the spine, permeating every inch of bone and every strand of soul power.

Even though it felt fear and its soul trembled, it did not retreat or hesitate in the slightest.

It is the absolute ruler of the endless ocean, the supreme being in the sea that is closest to a god.

Its supreme heritage spanning millions of years prevents it from bowing down or showing weakness to any human being.

A deep roar rolled out from the depths of its throat, and the dark blue beam of light that had been gathering in the mouth of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King instantly shot out.

The beam of light, carrying extreme heat capable of melting steel and burning mountains, streaked across the sky at breakneck speed and struck Yang Jian's vital chest.

Where the beam of light passed, the air vibrated and exploded violently, the surrounding water vapor evaporated instantly, and the space continued to crack.

Yang Jian raised his hand and gripped the thousand-foot-long, three-pointed, double-edged sword tightly. The giant blade was raised high and aimed directly at the incoming beam of light.

A silvery-white, ultimate light rapidly condensed and layered on the broad blade, continuously compressing energy to its limit.

The space around the blade trembled and twisted continuously, with dense void patterns growing as it endured the pressure of extreme energy.

Yang Jian suddenly exerted force with his arm, pressed down with his wrist, and the thousand-foot-long giant blade slashed down.

The condensed, sharp blade forcefully sliced ​​through the trembling air, precisely meeting the dark blue beam of light that swept across the room.

The solidified energy beam was neatly cleaved from the very center by the endlessly sharp blade.

The two separate streams of blue energy slid rapidly along the sides of the blade and shot towards the distant sea.

Two streams of energy struck the sea surface one after the other, and two loud explosions occurred simultaneously.

Two giant water columns, hundreds of feet high, suddenly erupted from the sea surface, sending water soaring into the sky and spraying water droplets everywhere.

Water droplets rained down, spreading a thick white mist across the vast sea, shrouding the battlefield in a hazy fog that lingered for a long time.

After cleaving through the pillar of light, the giant blade continued its momentum, carrying immense force, and crashed straight down towards the head of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The extreme force of the slashing attack compressed the surrounding space, causing the void around the blade to continuously twist and vibrate, displaying its terrifying power.

In the critical moment, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King suddenly exerted its power, and its giant tail, hundreds of feet long, lashed out violently.

The enormous whale tail, carrying a force of millions of pounds and a terrifying power that could tear through the wind and waves, lashed straight at Yang Jian's waist.

Its tail speed was extremely fast, tearing through the air with a piercing explosion that made eardrums vibrate.

Where the tail passes, a massive amount of seawater is forcibly pushed aside, and a huge, thick wall of water is erected in front of it.

Yang Jian steadily extended his left hand, his palm condensing a powerful soul force, and forcefully received the sweeping giant whale tail head-on.

The two forces collided instantly, their extreme power clashing and exploding.

Chapter 265 Eliminate the Weeds at the Root, Leave No Trouble for the Future

Yang Jian's massive body swayed slightly, and the sea beneath his feet instantly sank several feet, forming a huge depression in the seawater.

The surrounding seawater rushed out to both sides, exposing the moist sandy seabed below.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King felt as if its tail was striking not flesh and blood, but an indestructible, eternally immovable mountain.

The terrifying force of the recoil spread rapidly throughout its body along the meridians at its tail, penetrating every inch of its skin, flesh, and bones, leaving it numb and its soul power stagnant.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was restrained by the recoil and its movements were sluggish, Yang Jian continued to bring down the thousand-foot-long giant blade in his right hand.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King endured the numb pain and twisted its massive body with all its might, trying to sidestep the fatal blow.

However, its body was too large and cumbersome to move flexibly on the vast sea, like a giant island in a fixed sea area.

All attempts to turn or swerve were slow, powerless, and futile in the face of the rapidly falling, gigantic blade.

The next instant, the sharp giant blade landed precisely on the scales on the head of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The giant blade clashed violently with the thick scales, sparks flying everywhere, and the sharp, metallic clang echoed across the vast sea.

The layers of hard, dark blue scales were instantly torn apart, and the giant blade slicing into the flesh and hard bones below.

The layers of bodily resistance continued to increase, with skin, fascia, and bones blocking the way, but they could not stop the blade's domineering downward momentum.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King let out a violent roar of extreme pain, a deafening cry filled with endless horror that echoed throughout the sky and the sea.

The massive blade sliced ​​open a deep wound in the hard skull, and thick, hot, dark golden blood gushed out.

A massive amount of blood poured onto the sea surface, instantly turning a large area of ​​the surrounding seawater into a dark golden-red color.

Thick, bloody water sank deeper into the sea, slowly spreading and staining the surrounding hundred-foot-wide area red, with a strong, pungent stench of blood.

Stimulated by the intense pain, the massive body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King suddenly retreated rapidly.

The receding giant body caused massive waves to surge across the sea, with layers of waves rushing out from both sides of the body.

The mist and tiny waves were pushed in all directions by the immense force, and the entire sea surface surged and churned violently.

It looked down at the deep wound on its head that was constantly bleeding, and the extremely domineering anger in its eyes completely faded away.

Instead, there was intense shock and genuine fear; a life-or-death crisis completely enveloped their minds.

Its gaze darted back and forth between the towering, thousand-foot-tall behemoth and its own wounds, constantly assessing the current battle situation and the strength level of its opponent.

A hoarse, indistinct voice, tinged with barely concealed trembling and fear, slowly rang out: "What exactly are you?!"

Ignoring the other party's question, Yang Jian's gaze passed over the massive body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and precisely locked onto the sea surface behind him.

The Demon Emperor's enormous body was slowly sinking, with most of it submerged in the seawater, leaving only a blurry, dim outline on the surface.

Taking advantage of the chaotic battle between the two supreme beings and the opportunity presented by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King drawing all attention, it intended to escape silently.

Its movements were gentle and slow, completely concealing all its soul power fluctuations and life force, eliminating any possibility of being detected.

It knew the battle was perilous, its mate was in dire straits, and its own injuries had not yet healed. Continuing to fight would only lead to its death, and only by fleeing could it survive.

Yang Jian's brows twitched slightly, and he made a decision in an instant.

The Demon Emperor has cultivated for over 700,000 years, possessing profound knowledge, unpredictable methods, a ruthless nature, and an extreme capacity for holding grudges.

If we allow them to escape unscathed today, they will surely lie in wait in the shadows and return to unleash endless revenge and slaughter.

His cultivation was extraordinary, and he was not afraid of any retaliatory attacks or sneak attacks from sea spirit beasts. There were very few beings on the Douluo Continent who could truly threaten him.

But he could not stay in this vast sea forever; there were countless relatives and friends on the mainland whom he cared about and who needed his protection.

Any potential hidden danger could turn into a fatal crisis in the future.

Today's battle must be fought with a zero-tolerance policy, leaving no future troubles.

Yang Jian flipped his wrist, instantly changing the orientation of the thousand-foot-long three-pointed double-edged sword.

The immense soul power was poured into the blade, causing the silver-white light to surge once more, and the blade's power to rise layer by layer.

The colossal blade, thousands of feet long, drew a vast and magnificent silver-white arc in the sky, its speed reaching its peak in an instant, piercing straight towards the Demon Emperor who was diving down to escape.

The sharp tip of the blade broke through the sea surface first, stirring up a rapidly spreading white ring of water, with ripples spreading outwards in layers.

The heavy blade pierced through layers of seawater with incredible speed, almost completely overcoming the resistance of the water flow, making the process light and swift.

The water flow was forcibly separated by the condensed blade, forming neat water walls on both sides, without generating any resistance throughout the process.

The giant blade pierced the Demon Queen's retreating back with perfect accuracy.

The blade pierced through the skin and flesh of the spine, penetrated the fascia and bones, and finally emerged completely from the abdomen.

Scalding golden blood and dark red bits of flesh swirled in the deep sea, forming a turbid vortex that slowly spread and expanded with the current.

The severe trauma instantly shattered the Demon Emperor's life force, and extreme pain swept through his entire body.

The Demon Emperor let out a short, shrill scream, its sharp cry piercing the sea and echoing across the sky.

The massive body struggled violently beneath the sea surface, its dark blue protective soul power flashing rapidly on its surface, alternating between light and darkness.

After a brief struggle, the protective light quickly dimmed and weakened, eventually extinguishing and dissipating completely.

The massive body, having lost all support, slowly floated upwards, eventually spreading out flat on the sea surface.

The surrounding seawater swirled and churned around the corpse, with ripples slowly spreading outwards, creating a tranquil yet desolate scene.

All life force and soul power fluctuations belonging to the Demon Emperor were completely severed and dissipated.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King caught a glimpse of his mate's cold corpse on the surface of the sea, and all the emotions in his huge eyes changed drastically in an instant.

Extreme anger and overwhelming hatred completely consumed his mind, and reason was completely overwhelmed by the violent thoughts of killing.

It raised its head and roared furiously at the sky, its voice carrying the extreme violence of burning away its internal organs, shaking the vast sea.

The entire sea surface trembled violently amidst the roaring sound, and giant waves spread wildly in all directions from its body.

Giant waves piled up one after another, pushing higher and higher, rolling farther and farther, leaving endless white streaks on the sea surface, the world filled with raging water.

A rich, dark red light seeped from the gaps in the scales of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, wrapping around its massive body layer by layer.

The ancient and violent power of his bloodline was fully revived, and the energy fluctuations around his body surged and climbed higher and higher.

The surrounding seawater, drawn by extreme energy, rose into the air and broke free from its confinement on the surface.

Countless fine and sharp water blades rapidly condensed and took shape in the airspace around it, densely packed, blotting out the sky and spreading in all directions.

Each water blade is extremely refined, sharp enough to cut through metal and stone and split rock layers, and contains pure and domineering water-based soul power.

Chapter 266 Nine-Nine Thousand-Year Soul Ring

"Wanren Taotian!"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King let out a deep roar, and tens of thousands of water blades shot out simultaneously from its body.

The countless water blades covered all angles, bombarding Yang Jian's entire area with a comprehensive and unobstructed approach.
