Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 503 Lighting Up the Sea, A New Journey

"Go ahead..."

The Ice Witch waved her hand.

This was Little Black Hair's final responsibility.

"Ah."

Chen Qi nodded and looked at the towering lighthouse that reached into the clouds.

It was like a giant blade piercing into the black mist, with no end in sight.

A giant lighthouse was built in just one day.

This is the speed of manufacturing in Beiguo... Chen Qi lightly jumped and leaped to the top of the lighthouse.

The lighthouse, where countless fuels converge, awaits a lighthouse of extraordinary significance.

Chen Qi stood at the highest point of the lighthouse, gazing at the vast sea.

Ships were wrecked, the sea was polluted, and people lived in fear of the black fog.

Fire-casting technique!
Chen Qi took a deep breath, poured out his spiritual power, and then gently dropped the flame from his fingertips to ignite the fuel.

Phew! Phew!
In that instant, flames burst into flames.

The people under the lighthouse looked up.

The flames grew larger and larger, and in an instant, they lit up the sky before their eyes.

Beneath this city, the flames resembled a giant, burning golden tree.

Hot and dazzling, and sacred!

Within the pitch-black Witch Sea, civilians infected with the Black Blood Disease emerged from their cramped shelters, all gazing up at the sky.

The distant flames were so dazzling, like a lit lighthouse.

Under the light of the beacon, the Shadow Fiend vanished into the darkness like a fleeing beast.

Under the pure spiritual power of the lamp, the black mist dissipated little by little, like a fleeing ghost.

"what--"

Beyond the edge, the giant whale, its eyes fixed on Chen Qi, also let out a painful howl.

In this final moment, its twisted eyes stared intently at Chen Qi…

It was the Black Hunter who prevented it from descending into the sea, destroyed its physical body, and killed its chosen one!
I will never forget you—

Under the dazzling light, the whale's figure vanished, fleeing into the depths of the edge.

"whale……"

Chen Qi turned around.

In the sea breeze, the whale's breathing ceased, and the blood that permeated the black mist dissipated with the wind.

Soon, the flames grew larger and larger, almost covering the sky as far as he could see.

Both the White Tower Sea and the Witch Sea can see this burning lighthouse.

The power of the great whale completely dissipated into the sea.

People who had been shrouded in darkness for so long couldn't help but peek out, passing messages to each other and celebrating this moment of victory.

The cities along the White Tower Sea and the Witch Sea are filled with hundreds of thousands of people searching for their loved ones.

They saw the light once again.

Chen Qi could feel that the sixth-tier profession card in his hunter's uniform pocket was bursting with an unprecedented power.

Your promotion ceremony is complete...

Your power is rising.

Chen Qi took a deep breath.

A force was spreading continuously within his body.

This is different from spiritual power; it is more abundant and more powerful.

Chen Qi felt his deep-sea perception had been upgraded once again, as if it could spread to the entire ocean.

"call……"

Chen Qi let out a long breath.

He felt an abundance of power within him.

Now, he is confident that no fifth-tier opponent can defeat him.

He has now fulfilled the two most difficult conditions for advancing to the sixth rank.

"It's just one step away..." Chen Qi sighed.

Next, we only need to accommodate one Class B crack.

With the help of the Ice Witch and the Steam Hand, he could ascend to the sixth rank and become the Lord of the Deep Sea Ember by accommodating a B-rank rift.

The path to promotion is already under his feet.

Chen Qi stood beneath the blazing lighthouse fire, taking one last look at the great whale in the distance.

The next time they meet, he will surely gain the power to slay a god and completely kill the soul and blood of the great whale.

He slowly turned his head around.

The overwhelming feeling of dampness on my body dissipated.

Chen Qi stood atop the lighthouse, enjoying the warmth with everyone.

They waited quietly for the flames to burn and for dawn to break.

……

……

One month later.

Beli, below the steamship port.

"Come on!"

"Is the Black Hunter leaving?"

"No! I heard that the second prince of the Kingdom of Bei wants to meet the Black Hunter!"

Excitedly, everyone ran to the dock and gazed at the enormous vessel shrouded in black cloth.

Brie wiped the sweat from his brow and said:

"Qi, Miss Witch!"
The Water Sprite has completed its final round of testing; now, it is undoubtedly the undisputed ruler of the high seas!

After saying that, he suddenly ripped off the black cloth covering the boat.

Everyone's eyes suddenly widened.

A huge black cloth sank into the sea, while a large ship, larger than a warship, came into view of the many onlookers.

The ship features deep black alloy armor plates, lantern lights made from deep-sea lanternfish, a black dragon-shaped bow, and a banner of the water spirit king flying high at the bow!
awesomeness!

"The Water Sprite is finally finished."

Chen Qi clapped his hands and sighed.

The Water Sprite is a ship based on the Underworld Ghost.

This is a truly top-tier warship; whether it's its speed, combat capabilities, or interior design, it's top-of-the-line.

In appearance, it is not much different from an ordinary steel ship.

But inside, it contains the most advanced extraordinary core.

It also includes the Rift Workshop, as well as the Inspiration Library, the Potions Workshop, the Extraordinary Sea Beast Breeding Farm, and the Space Leap Engine!
Very few ships are capable of carrying Rift Workshop.

Not bad... Chen Qi smiled.

According to the treaty between him and Haye, the Kingdom of Bey promised to provide compensation after the incident involving the Great Whale was resolved.

However, even Haye and his organization could only offer very limited resources to a powerful figure like the Black Hunter.

Haye then offered two rewards.

First, there's this ship being built!
Second, the Titan Giant, a steam-powered mech from the Kingdom of Beth!
The Titan Giant is a small, twenty-meter-long mech that was placed on the Water Sprite.

Although not large in size, it possesses fifth-order power under overload conditions, making it a unique masterpiece of the Steam Hand.

However, Chen Qi himself did not possess the talent for hammering, nor was he able to pilot the massive Titan Giant.

But he didn't, his pet did!
Under An's feeding, Water Sprite No. 3 unexpectedly awakened the power of the Hammer Form.

During this month, An cared for Water Sprite No. 3 as if he were a child, making him stronger.

Once Water Sprite No. 3 uses its Deep Sea Hound transformation, its spiritual power will allow it to control this massive Tier 5 mech.

Chen Qi hadn't expected this.

His two water spirits actually possessed the appearance of saints!
Water sprites, terrifying indeed.

Chen Qi said:

"Thank you for your hard work, Brie."

Brie said:

"It's nothing, Black Hunter. You guys go ahead. After my honeymoon with my wife, I'll also head to the City of Art."

Behind Chen Qi, the rest of the group, who had already changed and packed their luggage, also came over.

"City of Art! City of Art!"

Fen, with Water Sprite No. 2 on her head, called out loudly.

In just one month, she has become a fifth-tier life alchemist!

After advancing to the fifth rank, Fen's Blood Flower disease improved somewhat, and her strength also increased significantly.

Even within the Canary family, in the art capital, she is a renowned genius.

Fen is now eager to take Chenqi to meet her family.

Her parents will be shocked!

"Fen, take care of yourself. I'm going to check the berths on the ship..."

The Ice Witch stretched lazily, hugged the Water Sprite No. 7 pillow, and took over a large room first.

After the Whale Father incident ended, the Ice Witch, who had been working hard for a long time, went into a period of rest.

Now, her favorite thing to do every day is to read books and newspapers and then sleep.

Chen Qi turned around and asked the little crow:
"Little crow, have you made up your mind?"

The little crow was startled and stared blankly into the distance.

Within that month, she also received news that her grandmother was well.

The little crow tilted its head.

The events of these past few days feel like a dream.

Yu Huo's memories kept surfacing in her mind.

The little crow lowered its head.

She is still only a fourth-order transcendent.

She was utterly useless before the Ice Witch, the Morning Star, and the Flower Witch.

The somewhat bewildered little crow decided to fulfill her unfinished dream.

Heading to study at Canary University! And the Canary family's headquarters are also in the art capital.

"Um……"

The little crow smoothed its hair and nodded, saying:

"Okay, I'll go check my room first."

Then, a little white-haired boy hurriedly ran over and turned around to say:

“Father, I have no choice but to send my cousin’s brother to White Tower University.”

Goodbye, Father! See you next year!

An bid farewell to her father, carried her heavy luggage in one hand, and stepped onto the ship.

"Are you in such a hurry to leave?" Chen Qi was startled.

"Listen up, everyone! You are all the most elite members from the Witch Sea!"

Paru brought his newly formed pirate fleet.

Among the new pirate crew were some people Chen Qi knew, such as Hagrid of the Sea God Pirate Crew and the honest little tentacle of the Coffin of the Sea.

They will head to the seas of the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom and unleash a brand new storm.

The roar of ships filled the air.

"Black Hunter, we're going now!"

"Paru called out."

"Um……"

Chen Qi lowered his head and looked down at the sea.

Before leaving, he had one last thing to take care of.

Beneath the bustling harbor and its surface lurks countless ferocious sea monsters.

Abyssal beasts, black sea giants, will-o'-the-wisps, bullet squid, little knights...

He couldn't possibly bring all his sea creatures with him on this journey.

Many marine mammals are too slow to adapt to new environments.

As a herdsman of the sea, he also had to abandon some sea creatures here.

"Goodbye, everyone."

Sea creatures swam on the seabed, stirring up huge waves on the shore.

They are crying!
They eat the Black Hunter's food every day, and many of their pets have forgotten how to hunt!
How can they survive without Black Hunters!

"Don't worry, I won't abandon you."

Chen Qi breaks his own contract.

This includes sea creatures such as the Black Sea Giant Elephant, the Abyss Sea Monster, the Bullet Squid, and the Sea Cloud.

However, these sea creatures were no longer his prey.

But now, Chen Qi, who is about to be promoted, can sense that his spiritual power can cross the ocean.

After he gets promoted.

Even though they are thousands of miles apart, his will can still influence them.

Moreover, Chen Qi had already entrusted Lady Ollie's family to take care of these sea creatures.

"Live life well."

Chen Qi smiled and, together with Fen, boarded the ship.

Without much hesitation, Chenqi turned the boat around and started the engine.

The roar echoed throughout the port.

Everyone watched the Black Hunter leave, feeling reluctant to part with him.

They had hardly ever seen the Black Hunter, but they knew that it was the Black Hunter who killed the black whale that had dominated the sea for a hundred years and lit the torch!
In many people's minds, the Black Hunter is already comparable to the Ice Witch, a god-like existence.

In fact, quite a few people are already planning to erect a statue of him.

Under Mrs. Olivia's arrangement, everyone took out the flowers they had prepared and scattered them into the sea.

"Goodbye, Black Hunter..."

May the goddess of the sea protect you!

May you protect our ocean!

"Thank you!"

The ships roared.

Chen Qi glanced out the window one last time at the prosperous Moonstone City.

He has experienced too much on this vast sea.

At this moment, I feel a strange sense of reluctance.

However, all good things must come to an end.

Chen Qi looked down at the map of the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom, the art capital.

Push the lever hard.

Set sail!

……

……

Meanwhile, on the other side of the continent...

Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom, Capital of Art.

A white dove flew over the red brick roof.

On the street, people were dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking very happy.

Vienna, the art capital, is different from Moonstone City; it is one of the most prosperous cities in the Kingdom of the Golden Flower and Bird.

In fact, in the realm of art alone, it surpasses even the capital of the Golden Flower and Bird Kingdom!
Its area is five times that of Moonstone City, and it has more than fifty large families, among whom are countless extraordinary powerhouses.

It is the dream city of countless artists in this world, and the paradise in the dreams of many.

Every day, countless extraordinary individuals and international students arrive in this bustling city.

The arrival of the New Year and the Sacred Beast Festival plunged this already bustling and lively city into even greater revelry.

Outside the largest gold-plated hotel in the art capital, a white dove gently landed in the hands of a couple.

The couple quietly opened the letter.

"This is……"

The wife's expression changed instantly upon receiving the letter.

There is a small flower pattern on this letter!

This is a letter from their daughter, Fen!

You see, ever since their daughter secretly ran away from the family when they were conscripted, they have been waiting for news of Fen.

"Old man! Look, our precious Fen, she's still alive!"

His wife was extremely excited.

"Oh no! Can Fen still live?"

The husband was even more shocked.

Because the ancient prophet hidden in the Witch Sea told them that Fen would become her instrument in accomplishing her great deeds.

It's worth noting that before Fen left, she left a letter saying "we will never see each other again."

The couple hurriedly opened the letter.

The letter was written in neat handwriting:
"Father, Mother! Don't worry about me, I'm still alive!"

I have advanced to the fourth rank.

Moreover, I met a very, very good friend, no, to be precise, someone I want to spend my whole life with..."

"He is really, really good, Father, Mother, please wait, you two will be amazed when you see him!"

The couple were deeply shocked when they saw the letter.

Their daughter, their daughter...

He actually advanced to the fourth rank!
When this letter was sent, Finn was not yet a fifth-order rank candidate.

Despite this, the couple was still incredibly excited.

Even in the Golden Flower Bird family, a fourth-order rank is considered genius.

Moreover, the letters revealed that Fen also had a lover.

"what……"

The husband hugged his wife and couldn't help but shed tears.

However, at that moment, a vicious-looking woman appeared beside them and snatched the letter.

The couple were taken aback.

It is none other than the powerful Queen Bee Hunter, the pinnacle of the third-tier superhuman, and the fearsome worker bee Motor!

"The Sacred Beast Festival is about to begin. What are you two old geezers looking at?"

Ma Da scanned the letter, his expression changing:
"Interesting! This patient, Fen, has actually advanced to the fourth rank!"

Disbelief filled Ma Da's eyes.

"Lord Mada, is there anything I can help you with?"

The couple asked in unison.

Under normal circumstances, a noble hunter like the queen bee wouldn't care about this poor and powerless couple.

Unless, they have a mission.

Recently, the family's workload has increased significantly.

Everything is foreshadowing that something big is about to happen in the Canary family.

Mada looked at the couple and said with a smile:

There are two commands.

First, according to the patriarch's order, all family members must abandon their duties and return home for the New Year.

"What about the second one?"

Mada looked at the two of them and said with a smile:

"According to Sister Daphne's orders, you need to find a black-eyed man who has been active in the sea and is a fourth-tier superhuman!"
He is very important; he's connected to Daphne's grand plan!

"A man with black hair and black eyes?"

The husband looked puzzled; the description was far too vague.

Mada returned the letters to the two men:
"Forget it, with your current connections, it's impossible for you two to find it."

That was a transcendent being at the peak of the fourth tier, a powerful hunter.
