Douluo Continent: I Have a Nameless Law

Chapter 231 The Chase at Sea: The Deep-Sea Demon Whale King, Determined to Escape

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King looked back and saw that Qian Daoliu and Poseidon had caught up and were relentlessly pursuing him.

No matter how hard I try, I can't shake it off.

The two attackers continued to strike from behind, attempting to block his movement.

While dodging the attacks, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King flew towards the surface of the sea below, manipulating the seawater with his soul power to stir up raging waves. He did not seek to defeat his opponent, but only to block the view so that it would be easier for him to escape.

"Qian Daoliu, this guy is not fighting us at all. If this continues, even if we join forces, there is nothing we can do."

Poseidon was somewhat helpless; he wasn't afraid of the opponent fighting desperately, but rather of the opponent desperately trying to escape.

A demigod-level being, just one step away from transforming into a dragon, was single-mindedly focused on escaping. Let alone two Limit Douluos, even two more might not be able to kill him.

"It is indeed a troublesome matter; we can only deal with it slowly."

Qian Daoliu had no other choice. The opponent was extremely powerful, but showed no intention of fighting and was only focused on escaping. Unless a god-level expert intervened, there was simply no way to defeat him.

"Junior brother, what should we do? This guy isn't fighting us at all. If this continues, he'll eventually escape on the high seas."

As Bibi Dong watched the Deep Sea Demon Whale King fly further and further away, she began to have second thoughts.

After all, Poseidon had told her that the opponent's strength was terrifying, and even if Poseidon used her divine power, she was not 100% confident that she could defeat the opponent.

Now, such a powerful being has no intention of fighting to the death; all its methods are for escaping. These people have no chance at all.

Gu Han also fell into deep thought; this situation was indeed very tricky.

At the same time, they were also secretly helpless. Why did the other side fight them head-on when Tang San and the others were hunting them down, but when it came to them, the other side ran away without even fighting?

If things continue like this, even if I catch up with my Yang Spirit, I won't be able to stop the opponent because of their strategy of only running away and not fighting.

If you catch up but can't keep it, it's all in vain.

This situation is indeed the most troublesome. A super strong person, on their own home turf, is determined to run away. There really isn't a good way to deal with it.

"Senior sister, it's alright. You can't rush things."

Seeing that Bibi Dong was having second thoughts, Gu Han, though he didn't have any good ideas, still offered a word of comfort.

"Well, this might be a good thing. If the other side fights like a cornered beast, we might have to pay a heavy price."

Bibi Dong nodded. If the other party was determined to escape, then as long as they followed slowly and gradually wore them down, like boiling a frog in lukewarm water, they might find that the other party had no soul power to fight back when they were on the verge of death. That would make things easier for them.

However, Bibi Dong's idea was naive. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King had nearly a million years of cultivation and never made a move. He focused on accumulating power, and his reserves of soul power were terrifying.

Moreover, this is at sea, where the opponent has a natural environmental advantage, just like the Snow Empress in the far north. On the sea, the opponent's strength is undoubtedly the strongest soul beast.

He might even be stronger than Poseidon, after all, even the sea god who was about to become a god couldn't kill him.

Poseidon's strength is still far behind that of the sea god who almost became a god back then.

Therefore, in Gu Han's view, if it really came down to a fight to the death, even if Poseidon had divine power, as long as the sea god didn't intervene, Poseidon wouldn't be able to defeat the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The group chased the Deep Sea Demon Whale King for two or three hours, and managed to stop it at times, but the king never wanted to fight and would run away whenever it had the chance.

Given their strength, forcibly keeping them wouldn't work.

"This is really tricky."

Gu Han sighed inwardly, thinking how incredibly cunning the sixth Demon Whale King was.

Night fell, the moonlight descended, and eight figures swiftly swept across the dark sea.

Seven figures surrounded and intercepted a black and red figure, using all sorts of attack methods, causing the sea to churn endlessly.

Gu Han gripped his longsword and unleashed the "All Things Lose Color" technique, enveloping the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. While he couldn't stop it, he did slightly reduce its speed.

"Are you ever going to stop?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King looked at Qian Daoliu, who was blocking his way again, then glanced at Poseidon behind him, and several human experts on his left and right sides. His face twitched. He had been running for so long, but the monster was like a leech and still wouldn't give up.

"Demon Whale King, our purpose this time is to hunt down your spirit ring. We believe that if Dong'er absorbs your spirit ring, his chances of becoming a god will greatly increase."

Qian Xunji's mouth was as hate-inducing as ever, and with just one sentence, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was reminded of his unbearable past.

"He's become a god again."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's forehead veins bulged as he pointed at Bibi Dong and gritted his teeth, saying, "Let's not even talk about whether this little girl can become a god. Just look at me, a 990,000-year-old soul beast with mental power that has reached the level of a demigod. Are you sure she can withstand my mental attack?"

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that."

Indeed, Bibi Dong's mental strength was simply insufficient to withstand the backlash from the Deep Sea Mirror King's soul.

But they came prepared. They had already planned that while Bibi Dong killed the opponent, Qian Daoliu would use the power of the Angel God's Judgment to destroy the soul of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in one fell swoop, so that it would not have a chance to retaliate against Bibi Dong.

Although it is somewhat laborious to do this, Qian Daoliu felt it was worthwhile if it was for the purpose of cultivating a god.

"The Holy Sword!"

Qian Daoliu stopped talking and, as he swung the Holy Sword, the six-winged angel behind him also swung his greatsword down. The holy power made the Deep Sea Demon Whale King very reluctant to face it.

At the same time, Poseidon also made her move. With a flick of her jade finger, countless water spheres flew out.

At the same time, Gu Han and the others also took action together, each unleashing their own attack soul skills.

Gu Han still really liked Xue Di's big slap as her starting point.

"Emperor's Palm - Great Cold with No Snow!"

Unlike Huo Yuhao, who used the Emperor's Palm technique, Gu Han preferred to descend from the sky, feeling as if he could control the heavens with one hand.

The Emperor's palm descended from the sky, and the extreme cold caused the sea to freeze into ice crystals.

"The Emperor's Wrath - Blue Silver Overlord Spear!"

Bibi Dong also unleashed her new soul bone skill. Unlike Tang San's fifth soul skill, Bibi Dong's Blue Silver Overlord Spear was fired in groups, and the power of a single spear was even greater than that of Tang San's fifth soul skill.

Countless blue-silver Overlord Spears fell like meteors, each spearhead gleaming with a chilling light under the moonlight.

The fire phoenix spewed out extremely hot fire lines from its mouth.

The Azure Phoenix spread its wings and unleashed a dense barrage of wind blades.

Qian Xunji went all out, unleashing a powerful attack with Angelic Glory.

Faced with these terrifying attacks, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King did not choose to take them all head-on; it dodged what it could, and only fought back when it couldn't be dodged.

However, it found that the attacks were too dense and terrifying, and it had no room to dodge.

So it transformed into its true form, opened its blood-red maw, and used its innate skill: Devour.

It actually intended to devour these terrifying forces.

To others, this was undoubtedly courting death, especially since it contained a sacred attribute that was extremely restraining towards him.

However, only it knows just how practical and powerful its devouring ability truly is.

Its mouth opened wide, unleashing an endless suction force that forcibly gathered all the attacks together.

Then, just as these attacks were about to be swallowed, the suction force in its mouth suddenly disappeared, and then a torrent of lightning, gathered at full power, spewed out.

boom!!!

Terrifying energy erupted on the sea surface, and various energies converged, resulting in a horrific explosion that created a giant light source on the sea surface, illuminating the entire area.

Such terrifying power forced even Sendou Ryu and Poseidon to retreat temporarily.

When the explosion subsided, there was no trace of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"They ran away again."

Everyone was exhausted. They had finally managed to corner them, only to have the other side escape again. They were truly slippery.

"Sure enough, without the protagonist's halo, these guys are all incredibly cunning."

Gu Han thought to himself, no wonder the Deep Sea Demon Whale King could live for so long, it turns out it was the sixth one.

That makes sense. The more you like to fight, the more likely you are to suffer a setback. On the other hand, those who prefer to play it safe may not amount to much, but they live a long time.

As long as you live long enough and cultivate slowly, you will eventually become stronger. In any case, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is a top-tier marine soul beast. As long as you survive, you will definitely be able to grow stronger.

"It seems that hunting down the other party will not be a simple matter."

Qian Daoliu sighed. This was exactly the situation it was most worried about. A powerful opponent of the same level who was determined to run away was really difficult to deal with.

Chapter 232 The Sea God Deceives the Deep Sea Demon Whale King

For the next week, the group engaged in a protracted pursuit of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King on the high seas.

It fled, and they chased after it; though it had no wings to fly, it had shark fins to swim.

At sea, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King hardly expended any energy; on the contrary, the group was powerless against it.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up and rest on a nearby island.

"Dong'er, why don't we just change his spirit ring? This guy is too cunning."

During the pursuit, Qian Xunji used almost every means at his disposal, but the opponent's strength was undeniable, and he simply couldn't stop him.

"no!"

It was Poseidon who spoke, slamming her scepter on the ground and speaking in a serious tone.

"We have already offended this Deep Sea Demon Whale King. If we don't kill it, it will definitely cause trouble in the future."

She came out determined to kill her opponent and was mentally prepared for a long battle.

Giving up now would be the most disadvantageous thing for Poseidon Island.

Qian Daoliu patted Qian Xunji on the back of the head and said seriously, "That's right, this soul beast is incredibly powerful, and the soul ring it drops will definitely be extremely powerful. You can't rush things. Take it slow, and we'll eventually catch it."

"Yes, Father."

After being slapped, Qian Xunji never mentioned changing targets again.

"Brother, the other side is very cunning. We must change our strategy."

Qingluan spoke up, saying that during these days of pursuit, the other party had been avoiding a fierce battle and had been running away. Even when her elder brother and Poseidon joined forces, they could not stop the other party who was determined to escape.

If we continue to chase them like this, the result will only be the same as before: no matter how many times we surround them, they will always escape.

"But if the other party is determined to escape, apart from my father and senior Poseidon, if they force their way in, any of us who try to stop them will inevitably be severely injured, or even in danger of death."

Ling Yuan recalled the several encirclement battles over the past few days. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was very cunning. Each time it broke through, it would choose to launch a strong attack on everyone except Poseidon and her father.
