What made the Evil Spirit Orca King most furious was the surrounding Deathgod Domain’s Asura Hell effect. No matter how, he still couldn’t display his full strength. Tied up with Xiao Bai’s attacks, even if he wanted to go help his clansmen it was impossible. He could only watch with open eyes as his clansmen constantly died.
The Evil Spirit Orca King understood that if it went on like this, the might really be completely wiped out today. Even though Xiao Bai was strong, he could still block her. But his clansmen were already less and less able to endure. The number of casualties was far greater than for the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks.
To be able to cultivate to the hundred thousand year level, the Evil Spirit Orca King naturally wasn’t an idiot. He understood that the key was Tang San hovering in the air spreading the domains. The fighting strength of the clansmen within the enormous range of the domain was weakened by at least ten percent, but strengthened the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks by more than ten percent. The result of this was that his clansmen were actually unable to defeat the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks even when they were equal in number.
Thinking of this, Evil Spirit Orca King’s enormous body rolled sharply in the water. Immediately after, he shot out as if fired from a bow, tanking one of Xiao Bai’s Devil Shark’s Teeth and suffering dozens of wounds. But he had also already charged up power, and an iron gray pillar of water the thickness of a barrel shot out from his blowhole, directly at Tang San in the sky.
“Careful.”
Xiao Bai snarled. Leaping up, she heavily rammed the Evil Spirit Orca King, sending it flying. Then once again transformed into a violent woman, attacking fiercely.
In midair, Tang San’s attention was always highly focused, as if he was already aware the Evil Spirit Orca King would launch an attack at him. Facing the iron grey pillar of water targeting him, Tang San didn’t dodge. Gathering the forefinger and middle finger of his right hand, he softly pressed the golden trident brand on his forehead, then once again tossed downwards.
A crystalline blue triangle flew out with his cutting gesture. The triangle expanded in the air, and in the blink of an eye its sides were already a meter long, emanating deep blue and meeting that grey blue jet of water head on.
The Evil Spirit Orca King’s attack could be said to be his all out effort, in order to finish Tang San in one shot and free his clan from the Asura Hell, otherwise he wouldn’t have tanked several of Xiao Bai’s attacks in order to charge power.
Would Tang San dare stiffly block a hundred thousand year spirit beast’s full strength attack? The answer was yes. That deep blue triangle attacked the iron grey water jet from the front.
Incomparably enormous energy fluctuations erupted in midair. The deep blue triangle spun, just like the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud. But even though that explosive iron grey jet of water was powerful, one could clearly see how the energy within it was separated out by the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud, a gray aura scattered in all directions, and countless blue specks of light were forcefully absorbed by the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud.
What Tang San threw out of course wouldn’t be the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud itself, but rather the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud’s ability, Cosmic Devilbreaker. After the skull evolved, this ability had become powered purely by the mind. Indeed, Tang San’s spirit power by far couldn’t compare to the hundred thousand year Evil Spirit Orca King, but his spiritual force was already on the same level as Seagod Douluo Bo Saixi. The Vast Sea Ocean Shroud was only effective on energy attacks. Funnily enough, in order to pursue attack power, the iron grey jet of water the Evil Spirit Orca King spit out wasn’t actually water, but rather his purified energy. Naturally it was stiffly blocked by the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud.
Tang San had long since made preparations, even if the Vast Sea Ocean Shroud couldn’t block it, he still had Invincible Golden Body as backup. Naturally there wouldn’t be any problem.
Red light flickered, after blocking this attack, Xiao Wu also crawled out from Tang San’s Hundred Treasure Purse, her soul returning to her body. Tang San circled her waist with one hand, and wouldn’t let her fall. Her trial was to accompany Tang San to complete his missions, so staying in the Hundred Treasure Purse naturally wouldn’t do. Now that the situation was already in order, Tang San naturally brought her out.
With great difficulty once again warding of Xiao Bai’s attack, the Evil Spirit Orca King’s heart sank to the bottom. Watching that sparkling blue triangle return to Tang San’s forehead, he roared,
“It’s really the Sea…...”
Before he could finish, Xiao Bai had already pounced once again, fiercely tearing off a huge chunk of flesh from his belly in one bite.
Tang San coldly swept the Evil Spirit Orca King with a glance, and threw out a Blue Silver Overlord Spear with his right hand, penetrating deeply into the head of an Evil Spirit Orca that had almost bitten a Devil Spirit Great White Shark. His spiritual force strengthened once again, and the Asura Hell’s tyrannical suppressive effect rose further.
There was no longer any suspense in the battle between the Evil Spirit Orcas and Devil Spirit Great White Sharks. Relying on the terrifying power of the Hell White Tiger, in just a while, the Evil Spirit Orcas that had died by Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing’s hands numbered more than thirty. Fatty had also reaped thirteen. Even Oscar had already finished his mission.
Ning Rongrong stood leisurely on the back of a Devil Spirit Great White Shark that still hadn’t gone into battle, constantly pouring line after line of boost abilities into Xiao Bai. The light of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda covered her whole body, she had clearly already used the seventh spirit ability spirit avatar. In her present state, boosting only Xiao Bai, she could hold out for an hour without problem. The Nine Treasure Avatar’s greatest benefit was was to lengthen the boosting time. At leisure, she could still occasionally temporarily free her hands to boost some Devil Spirit Great White Sharks who were at a disadvantage, letting them reverse the situation.
The numbers of Evil Spirit Orcas was growing fewer and fewer. At the start only the adult Evil Spirit Orcas had gone into battle, but later the ones with lower cultivation had also joined in. The Devil Spirit Great White Sharks already held an overwhelming advantage.
The Evil Spirit Orcas all clearly understood that it was impossible for them to compete with the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks in terms of speed, they only had some chance in a melee. Therefore there basically was no chance for them to retreat. But unfortunately they were enveloped in Tang San’s terrifying Deathgod Domain. Battle spirit lowered considerably, unable to use their strength, and further adding the Shrek Seven Devils’ highly explosive attacks, how could they still resist.
A giant flame silhouette suddenly exploded from the Seven Headed Fire Phoenix, causing intense phoenix flames to fall from the sky, heavily bombarding the back of an especially enormous Evil Spirit Orca. Amidst the explosive blast, that Evil Spirit Orca’s whole body trembled as a large scorched black pit opened in its back. That was the Phoenix Cloud Piercing Strike when Ma Hongjun in spirit avatar state used the Phoenix Domain to amplify his strength.
This one attack completely destroyed this Evil Spirit Orca with at least twenty thousand years of cultivation in one hit. Ma Hongjun then also transformed into his human form. The spirit avatar consumed an enormous amount of spirit power, and he couldn’t quite endure the uninterrupted fighting. Floating in midair, he ate a few large recovery sausages to replenish his strength.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing also rested in the back. Having equally finished their missions, everyone’s mood relaxed.
As the numbers of both sides changed, the battle grew even more unbalanced, the remaining Evil Spirit Orcas were besieged by at least three or four Devil Spirit Great White Sharks, and basically stood no chance. There was no longer need for the Shrek Seven Devils’ assistance, so the people who had already completed their missions could relax.
Just at this moment, suddenly, a special energy fluctuation erupted from the
middle of the battle, and Xiao Bai who had originally been gradually suppressing the Evil Spirit Orca King was suddenly shot out with enormous force.
The Evil Spirit Orca King’s immense body floated on the surface of the sea, without pursuing Xiao Bai, and the original metallic sheen of his skin was replaced by a dull gray. Incomparably immense energy fluctuations seemed to blockade the entire sea area. A situation similar to Xiao Bai’s third stage domain solidifying the sea appeared, making the movement speed of both Evil Spirit Orcas and Devil Spirit Great White Sharks lower.
“Not good.”
Xiao Bai cried out in alarm, once again charging forward. However, the Evil Spirit Orca King was surrounded by a peculiar intangible force that shot her out once again. At this moment, even its blood red eyes had turned ash grey, and the space around it began to distort violently.
“It’s going to explode, quickly stop him!”
Xiao Bai yelled in fright.
Nobody present knew what would happen if a hundred thousand year spirit beast self detonated, but they could all imagine it. A spirit beast with hundred thousand year cultivation simultaneously exploding with its stored up energy and soul would be a terrifying force. If it really happened, there might not be many present who could survive.
Nobody had expected the Evil Spirit Orca King to be this ruthless in its final moments, to thoroughly extinguish himself from this world in order to bring the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks and the Shrek Seven Devils down with him.
All the Evil Spirit Orcas showed their unreasoning power in this moment. Not only didn’t they show the slightest thought of retreat, but on the contrary launched their final attacks. Each Evil Spirit Orca frantically attacked the surrounding Devil Spirit Great White sharks, at the price of their vitality. Not in order to kill their opponents, but just to tie up these mortal enemies and keep them from leaving the battlefield.
The golden blue silhouette floated over above the Evil Spirit Orca King’s enormous body. Ice cold eyes held no trace of emotion. In his palm once again appeared that jar of Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well water that had killed dozens of Evil Spirit Orcas.
What Tang San thought of right now wasn’t the previous battle, but rather when he almost died miserably from the immense attack of the Deep Sea Demon Whale. If he could have thought of taking out this jade jar, the circumstances might have been completely different.
“Die together.”
The Evil Spirit Orca King roared in a deep voice. His body began to swiftly expand, clearly igniting all the energy within its body.
“Self detonating won’t be that easy.”
Tang San naturally didn’t think he was capable of breaking the intangible barrier that even Xiao Bai couldn’t touch. What he did was very simple. Opening the jade jar, the two colored spring water poured out.
Ear piercing cracking sounds came from ten meters above the Evil Spirit Orca king, and a huge cloud of white mist rose. The originally intangible barrier turned visible, only only half of it remained, solidified with cold frost. The other half had quietly melted away.
The extremely cold yin water and blazing hot yang water’s abilities didn’t only affect substantial objects, they were equally effective on energy. How could it otherwise be known as the most extreme cold and heat between Heaven and earth.
The red spring water, under Tang San’s control, accurately dripped on the Evil Spirit Orca King’s back and flowed in through the breathing hole.
If the Evil Spirit Orca King was in its normal condition, he would have at least a hundred different methods to dodge or use instant energy eruptions to blow off the spring water. But right now he was about to self detonate, and was basically immobile. Its immense body also only relied on the self detonation process to release the intangible barrier. That was a shield that even the hundred thousand year sea spirit beast Xiao Bai was helpless against. How could he have imagined the enemy would actually have a way like this to break it?
His just violently expanding body abruptly stopped. Tang San also stopped tipping over the jade jar, cautiously stoppering it again.
The previous forty crossbow bolts had only used forty drops of hot yang water, less than a tenth of the jar. But right now, for fear the Evil Spirit Orca King wouldn’t die, Tang San fully poured out close to half the yin yang spring water in the jade jar.
Indeed, the yin yang well water mutually restrained each other, however, this Evil Spirit Orca King hadn’t taken the two great immortal herbs Tang San had, the Infernal Apricot and the Octagonal Ice Grass, and the spring water moreover directly entered its body.
After its enormous body paused for a moment, suddenly, with a ripping sound, it was like a balloon being popped. A chaotic energy jetted out from the hole on its back, sending Tang San just above flying, only with difficulty managing to regain his balance. But the Evil Spirit Orca King’s expanding body also began to quickly shrink, soon shriveling. The strangest part was that only half his body was wizened, the other half was frozen as hard as steel from the extreme cold yin water. His originally incomparably tyrannical aura scattered like vapor, leaving no trace behind. The ocean tyrant of a generation, the hundred thousand year spirit beast Evil Spirit Orca King died from the two divine waters produced by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Speaking of, this also counted as his bad luck. If he hadn’t used something like self detonation, Tang San also wouldn’t have had the chance pour the spring water on him. If he hadn’t been a whale, and had that enormous blow hole on his back, Tang San would also have been unable to let the spring water enter it to show its effect. If it had been Da Ming or Er Ming infected by the spring water, as long as they immediately cut off that portion of skin, with the powerful resistance of hundred thousand year spirit beasts they would only have taken some injuries. This Evil Spirit Orca King could be said to have been killed by Tang San’s schemes, and he could also have been said to have been killed by the attributes of his own body. Even his final wish of self detonating to annihilate the enemy came to nothing.
Without the leadership of the Evil Spirit Orca King, the remaining Evil Spirit Orcas basically couldn’t resist much. In front of Xiao Bay, they had even less of a chance to self detonate. With the Shrek Seven Devils having caught their breath and helping the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks work with a common purpose, very soon, they had swept away all remaining Evil Spirit Orcas, drawing a perfect period to this scene.
Delightfully familiar screens of light appeared once again. In Dao Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong’s minds appeared the same words.
“Fourth test, Shark Whale Battle, completed. Due to special circumstances reducing the difficulty of the trial, rewards are reduced by half. Devil Spirit Great White Shark casualties less than ten percent, rewards multiplied by two. Award. Spirit power increased one rank.”
This time, Ning Rongrong’s reward of five hundred years of spirit ring cultivation didn’t reappear.
Xiao Wu’s rewards were still superimposed. But as the golden light screen shot out from Tang San’s forehead, he obtained an Outstanding evaluation.
An ancient dignity hovered in Tang San’s mind,
“Taking the victory with wisdom, reducing losses to the minimum, alone killing more than fifty Evil Spirit Orcas, personally killing the Evil Spirit Orca King. Equally stressing wisdom and strength, the fourth trial is completed above quota. Seagod affinity score increased ten percent. Overall score thirty five percent.”
The golden trident brand brightened, changing from its previous dark introverted appearance, flashing with gaudy light, like stars on Tang San’s forehead. At the same time, Tang San also felt like a great door appear in his mental world. Using spiritual force to push it open, he would immediately enter a world of gold.
Subconsciously, he projected his spiritual force to pour into this all new world. Immediately, the golden trident brand on Tang San’s forehead glared with golden light, illuminating the blood colored seawater, and also shining on all the
Devil Spirit Great White Sharks.
The Shrek Seven Devils didn’t feel anything special, just that the golden light was warm and extremely comfortable, with a somewhat dignified aura.
However, each of the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks began to tremble. Even Xiao Bai was no exception. Heartfelt fear and respect made them all lower their arrogant heads, circling around Tang San to quietly worship.
The Seagod’s Light. This was the Seagod’s Light. Tang San inwardly exulted, feeling that golden light without offensive or defensive abilities bathe his whole body, he was even more excited than when the Purple Devil Eye upgraded to the Boundless realm. Because, this golden light meant that Xiao Wu was one step closer to resurrection. Right now he only still lacked the strength to rise to the Title Douluo level.
Withdrawing the spiritual force he had infused into the golden trident brand, the Seagod’s Light immediately vanished. But the golden trident brand on Tang San’s forehead was still shining, an important difference compared to before.
Without the illumination of the Seagod’s Light, the Devil Spirit Great White Sharks clearly calmed down. This made Tang San discover another effect of the Seagod’s Light. Deterrence. Strictly speaking, it should be deterrence to sea spirit beasts.
Oscar mumbled a bit resentfully:
“We all completed the mission above quota. How come the mission difficulty lowered?”
Dai Mubai snapped:
“You still don’t figure it lowered? Think about it, how did our fourth test differ from the previous three? If we didn’t have little San going first to tire out those Evil Spirit Orcas and kill a bunch of them, could we have finished the trial so easily? It’s pretty good to get the whole reward. That’s one spirit power rank! At our current level, you might not be able to raise it with a year of bitter cultivation.”
“Lord Tang San, thank you.”
Xiao Bai raised her head from the water, her eyes expressing sincere gratitude. She turned her gaze to the others,
