Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

He didn't even move, but the endless yellow light formed a circular light shield and spread rapidly. Wherever it passed, everything calmed down. Whether it was blue sky and white clouds or surging sea, everything fell into a deathly silence.

"Human, why have you invaded my territory?"

Upon seeing this, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King stopped its probing. A hint of fear flashed in its single eye, and it roared at Yan, the roars intertwining in mid-air to form a male voice.

"Deep Sea Demon Whale King, you see I only have eight spirit rings, which is somewhat incomplete. I've heard you're the strongest among sea spirit beasts, so let me see if you're qualified to become my ninth spirit ring!"

Yan chuckled lightly, but his words enraged the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Upon seeing Yan's eight spirit rings, each at least 100,000 years old, the king was filled with shock and fury, realizing that this battle was inevitable.

Yan clenched his right hand slightly. It would be impolite not to retaliate. Since the demon whale dared to attack him first, he would not be polite in his counterattack. A large amount of yellow light spread down, and the entire sea changed color. Endless waves crashed against the demon whale king from all sides, making it feel immense pressure.

"Roar~~~"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King spun rapidly, resisting the omnipresent and ever-increasing gravity. Rings of blue light emanated from it, and large swathes of seawater were torn apart by the two forces and turned into nothingness.

The probing exchange between the Demon Whale and Yan was like an apocalyptic scene. The giant waves stirred up by the aftershocks terrified the great white sharks in the distance. Such a terrifying commotion naturally alarmed a large number of creatures around the Demon Whale's sea area.

However, thanks to the Great White Shark's early clearing of the area, no one else, except for members of the Spirit Hall and Seagod Island, could approach this sea area to watch the battle.

Deep within the Demon Whale Sea, towering waves surged as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King wielded the terrifying waves in a fierce battle against Yan. Amidst the walls of towering waves, which surged thousands of meters high, Yan's 100-meter-tall form appeared and disappeared.

The battle between Yan and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was incredibly terrifying. The battle between the hundred-meter giant and the deep-sea behemoth looked like the ultimate battle between Tiga and Gatanothor. However, Yan, the 'Giant of Light,' was absolutely dazzling and had an absolute advantage over the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The endless, churning seawater receded under the immense pressure of the yellow light. The clash between blue and yellow ended with blue's defeat. Unwilling roars echoed from the depths of the ocean, and the colossal Deep Sea Demon Whale King spoke once more, "Humans, how about we end this war?"

If you need a soul beast that is over 100,000 years old, I can help you. I can even hunt down ferocious beasts for you, as long as you spare my life today.

As people age, they become more timid. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is no longer the ferocious beast that dared to challenge the Sea God. Although his strength has been increasing over the years, he has become less daring, as evidenced by his lurking in the Demon Whale Sea.

He is still a little short of becoming a million-year-old soul beast. He has not yet survived the final tribulation to transform into a sea demon dragon. Sensing that the situation is not good, he is naturally unwilling to fight Yan to the death. He immediately wants to beg for mercy and use this as a delaying tactic.

"You're scared!"

Yan, standing in the sky, merely smiled calmly. His composed words infuriated the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. Yellow light suppressed the waves, sealing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King beneath the sea's surface. "Deep Sea Demon Whale King, you dared to fight the Sea God back then, but now you've compromised with me."

Let me guess what's in the trench beneath you. Is your whole family here? After all, I didn't give you a heads-up when I came over..."

"Don't push your luck."

The deep-sea demon whale king roared in fury, and the clear sea rapidly changed. The originally sky-blue seawater gradually turned deep, and the surging waves crashed against the yellowish surface of the sea, and the air seemed to be slightly distorted.

Before long, the seawater below had turned as black as ink, instantly breaking through the yellow light membrane that sealed the seawater. The strange power brought by the towering black waves made the air seem to freeze.

The pitch-black whirlpool churned rapidly in the sea, and the great white sharks in the distance felt as if their eardrums had been blown off. A spinning black water cannon pierced the air and shot towards the head of the hundred-meter giant, where Yan's true body was located.

Blue light flickered within the water cannon, and an enormous black-blue beam of light exploded as it approached the hundred-meter-tall giant, sending a cloud of black ink hurtling towards Yan.

Faced with this attack, Yan simply manipulated the hundred-meter giant to swat it away as if swatting a fly, completely shattering the attack. Black and blue light arrows shot out in all directions and into the sea, creating huge ripples.

However, at that very moment, waves surged in the sea below, and the enormous body of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King rose to the surface.

Its blue crystal-like body wasn't particularly beautiful; the moment it appeared, it exuded a chilling, murderous aura, making it look extremely terrifying and ferocious.

"Are you really going to wipe them all out?"

His single eye stared coldly at Yan, his deep voice seeming to emanate from the depths of the sea, strange sound waves rippling through the air.

Yan did not reply, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King continued to speak to himself: "Boy, I admit that you are very powerful, almost reaching the peak of demigods, but this is the Demon Whale Sea, my territory."

The sea god no longer exists in this world; I am the master of the sea. You and I are both demigods, and the woman on Seagod Island is also a demigod, but she never dares to cause me any trouble. Do you know why?

"I'm 99% certain I've reached the god-level. One more step and I'll become an unprecedented sea monster god. Within this vast ocean, apart from the sea god and his successor, no one will be my match."

"Oh, so why were you scared just now?"

Yan casually said, "After all that talk, it's all just bluster. In the end, you're still afraid of dying!"

"You bastard!!!"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was truly enraged. Its enormous body suddenly thrashed violently in the sea, and its massive tail whipped up, unleashing a burst of blue-purple light that swept towards Yan in a fan shape.

Wherever the blue-purple lightning passed, the air was torn apart, carrying a burnt smell. The blue-purple fan-shaped radiance was surrounded by a layer of tiny black lightning bolts. The raging thunderbolts, though inconspicuous, contained extremely strong power.

"Human, I'm just too lazy to bother with anything. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's voice was filled with rage, and the calm seawater instantly boiled, with massive energy fluctuations brewing a powerful attack.

Yan did not answer the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's question. His energy surged out, and the earthy yellow energy intertwined to form a strange magnetic field. The surrounding space was almost distorted, and the strange gravitational magnetic field caused a large area of ​​seawater to break free from the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's control.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is indeed much more difficult to deal with than the previous Demon Orca King. This guy's control over the ocean is truly terrifying. If Yan doesn't change his home-field advantage, he definitely won't be able to win if things drag on.

A dazzling array of light flashed as Yan's eight spirit rings flickered simultaneously. He smiled at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and said, "Look, although my eight spirit rings are symmetrical, there's always one missing. That's not good. Why don't you sacrifice yourself?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King said somewhat maniacally, "You madman, we have no grudge against each other, why do you insist on holding me captive?"

Yan replied with a smile, "Of course it's because your cultivation is strong enough. Although the attributes aren't a perfect match, your million years of cultivation and soul rings and soul bones are truly enviable."

"Of course, I'd choose the best if I had a choice. By the way, it's not just yours. I remember your Deep Sea Demon Whale clan may be small, but your wife and daughter seem quite nice! Why don't you let them come out and meet me, have a drink and a chat with me? Maybe they'll willingly come with me..."

"you wanna die!!!"

Enraged by Yan's words, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King turned around and swept the seawater backward. Its huge body, more than two hundred meters long, showed extraordinary agility. It quickly swam to Yan's side, flipped over, and leaped up. Its huge blue-gold whale tail was already swinging towards Yan in mid-air.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King has cultivated for nearly a million years, and 99% of the time he has reached the God-level realm. His body is almost a divine body, so this attack of his true form is naturally quite extraordinary.

However, Yan was no pushover either. The benefits he had gained from his cultivation far surpassed the foundation of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, not to mention that his trip to the Dragon Tomb had made his physique inhumanly strong.

The 100-meter giant simply raised his palm and slapped it lightly, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was sent flying like a fly being swatted.

"Roar~~~"

After falling into the water, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King roared, and a strong blue-purple light appeared on its huge whale body, surrounded by purple lightning and blue electricity, as if countless bolts of lightning had been gathered together.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's Demon Whale Domain erupted the instant the thunder appeared, filling the entire sea area with blue-purple light.

"I've already told you, so don't resist."

Yan raised his hand and used another gravity control technique to lock onto the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. The behemoth, which was over two hundred meters long, had no way to dodge and was forced down into the sea by the heavy force, crashing into the deep-sea trench.

Chapter 584 The Demon Emperor and Blue Buddha

"Roar~~~"

In the murky depths of the ocean, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, having smashed through a large number of sea rocks, roared incessantly. His massive tail slammed heavily against the seawater, creating towering waves. Despite the immense pressure, he once again surged to the surface.

Dark clouds filled the sky above the sea, and streaks of purple lightning, drawn by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, rained down continuously. However, no matter how much the lightning struck, Yan did not hesitate for a moment. To him, these lightning attacks were like tickling an itch.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which had unleashed its ultimate power, underwent a major change. Its skin surface seemed to be covered with a layer of blue-purple crystal, and its enormous body began to shrink at an unparalleled speed.

The amethyst-like deep-sea whale king slowly rose into the air, and a moment later suddenly exploded, forming a huge blue-purple vortex in mid-air. The broken crystals shot out like sharp blades, and the power of water and lightning swept these blades into a torrent that crashed towards the hundred-meter giant.

The massive blue-purple vortex rapidly contracted, violently squeezing and compressing until the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's body was no longer visible. When the blue-purple light subsided, what appeared in Yan's vision was a middle-aged man with an ancient-looking face.

This person was over three meters tall, with long, dark blue hair cascading down his back. Most remarkably, he wore a strange, dark purple suit of armor.

This armor, resembling a soul armor, is a purplish-blue crystalline structure composed of a chest armor, shoulder armor, abdominal armor, battle skirt, and limb armor. It is a single piece with no visible seams, and the tall neck guards also protect the neck.

He wore a semi-enclosed, dark purple helmet with gill-like patterns on the sides. All the energy in the air seemed to converge the moment he appeared, and at the same time, a huge dark purple vortex appeared behind him.

The vortex slowly floated upwards, spinning from behind him to in front of him, finally condensing in the center of his breastplate, transforming into a fist-sized gem. Even as a gem, it still shimmered with rotating energy, appearing extremely strange.

"This is energy armor transformation. I didn't expect the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to have reached this level. His strength is truly incredibly close to that of a god."

Watching from afar, Little White the Great White Shark witnessed the changes in the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in mid-air and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Back then, when the Sea God became a god, he was able to fuse energy with himself to form an armor artifact and transform his martial soul into the Sea God Trident, which became his weapon."

Although the Deep Sea Demon Whale King cannot yet achieve this, its ability to transform energy into armor truly puts it only a hair's breadth away from godhood!

Bai Xiuxiu looked anxious upon hearing this and quickly asked Xiaobai, Bingdi, and Xuedi, "Mom, Sister Bing'er, Sister Xue'er, is Brother Yan in danger?"

"Xiuxiu, don't worry. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is indeed very strong, but he was forced to give up his physical advantages by Yan. At present, Yan still has the upper hand. With his strength, it is not a problem for him to escape unscathed."

Xue Di gently comforted them, saying that among those present, she was the strongest, with nearly 700,000 years of cultivation, and she was able to understand some of the battles taking place. Although the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's outburst was indeed astonishing, the situation was still under Yan's control.

"You gave up your physical advantages and took human form. Do you really think you can compete with me in human form?"

The over 100-meter-tall Earth Sovereign's true form dissipated into light and vanished, revealing Yan's true form, also clad in armor. This was his Soul Armor, far superior to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's armor, which was purely composed of energy.

As he spoke, he flew to the front of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and threw a punch. However, the yellowish-brown energy fluctuations were blocked by the torrent of water and mine energy erupting from the Demon Whale Domain. This Deep Sea Demon Whale King in human form is quite capable.

"Human, although my overall combat strength has weakened after I transformed, at least I will no longer be your target. You shouldn't have given me a chance; I will make you regret saying those words before."

As the Deep Sea Demon Whale King roared, a beam of light shot out from the gems on its chest armor and aimed at Yan. However, this attack was easily neutralized by Yan's defensive light shield. Mountain Dragon's defense was not so easy to break.

"You want me to regret this? Do you have the ability?"

Both the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and Yan were sharp-tongued, and the two faced off in the air, their gazes locked in a fierce confrontation.

This contest of momentum lasted for quite some time. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who had managed to turn the tide by transforming into human form, quickly fell into a disadvantageous position again. Yan's spiritual power was far superior to his, a crucial factor in the standoff.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's deep purple single eye met Yan's pair of crystal-clear red and yellow pupils, and he felt his head getting heavier and heavier. His aura was gradually suppressed by Yan's gaze, and the power that should have reached its peak after transforming into human form slowly declined instead.

When masters clash, the interaction of their auras and the battle of momentum become especially important. Just like on a battlefield, the side with overwhelming momentum can even defeat the strong with the weak, while the side with low momentum, even if it has thousands or tens of thousands of people, may be chased and beaten by dozens or hundreds of people.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's momentum suddenly shifted after the confrontation, and he naturally dared not wait any longer. He immediately turned hostile and attacked. This time, he would not make a fuss. He suddenly raised his right hand, and purple orbs of light appeared around his body.

The area of ​​several hundred square meters around it was instantly filled with purple light spheres, and crackling electric sparks painted a large part of the sky. The huge energy fluctuations distorted the air, and a piercing sound of air being torn apart rang out. From the moment it condensed to the moment it was released, it only took a short breath.

Thousands upon thousands of purple orbs hurtled toward Yan like a meteor shower, arriving before him in the blink of an eye, ready to engulf him completely.

Each purple orb is composed of three parts water and seven parts lightning, making it a composite elemental attack.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is not a single-attribute creature, and unfortunately, it failed to reach the peak of either attribute. Without an ultimate attribute, it is not a significant threat to Yan; it is merely a target with immense energy.

One after another, the water-lightning beads instantly engulfed Yan. Several beads collided and spread upon touching Yan's body, triggering a chain reaction. In the midst of the earth-shattering explosion, the location where Yan was was completely submerged by purple lightning and blue light.

Just as the Deep Sea Demon Whale King thought its attack had worked, countless bolts of lightning were slashed away by an even brighter light, and Yan's figure reappeared, without a single scratch on his body, not even a wrinkle on his clothes.

"This is impossible, impossible..."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was absolutely unable to accept this result. Only now did he realize how terrifying Yan's defense was. No matter how many attacks he launched, he had not made this opponent look disheveled at all. Could he really defeat an opponent whose defense could not even be broken?

"You've used up all your tricks, it's my turn."

Yan moved swiftly and arrived diagonally above the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. He delivered a simple and unadorned punch to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's head. At their level, there was really no need for so many fancy moves. The so-called clash of ultimate moves was actually not very meaningful.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King suddenly awoke from his fear, his whole body radiating purple light. He suppressed his terror and charged towards Yan, clapping his fists together in front of his chest, a purple halo rippled outwards from his chest.

The moment his hands met Yan's fists, his one eye flickered slightly. He made contact with Yan's body, indicating that Yan had not activated his defense at this moment. This might be his only chance.

Without further hesitation, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's swirling gem on its chest shone brightly, and the air instantly solidified wherever a streak of purple light passed.

This is a skill derived from the Demon Whale Domain of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. It has a similar effect to the Whale Demon's Spell of the Evil Orca King. Once you are enveloped in it, you will immediately fall into a brief state of dizziness.

In a duel at their level, even a moment of dizziness could be fatal, and this would be his only chance.

But just as the purple light was about to engulf Yan's body, an even more dazzling yellow light turned his entire body gold.
