Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 186 Demon Whale King

Ding Quan opened the map in his hand, and there was a huge, dangerous area on the sea.

Demonic Whale Sea Area.

This can be said to be the area where the oldest soul beast in the Douluo Continent is located.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, whose age is extremely close to one million years, is located in this area. If soul beasts can become gods, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King might already be a beast god.

However, if one can hunt it down and absorb its spirit ring, one might obtain a million-year spirit ring.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is less than a million years old, but its foundation is already sufficient.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King possesses the lightning attribute, but it won't be Vera's target this time. A million-year-old soul ring is simply wishful thinking for a soul master to absorb.

However, what Vera needs this time is indeed near the Demon Whale Sea.

The ocean is so vast that it looks close on a map, but the actual distance is quite far.

"Quan, it seems we can't keep up with your speed right now."

Golden feathers now spread out behind Vera, crackling with purple-gold lightning. Her wings fluttered slightly, and her figure streaked across the sky like a purple-gold streak of light.

Ding Quan didn't make any movements in front of her, but his figure remained beside Wei'er.

"After I constructed this Yin-Yang dual soul core, I gained a certain grasp of the power of space."

The number of spirit beasts in this ocean far exceeds that on land, and beneath the seemingly calm surface, the waves are turbulent.

Under the gaze of the Xuanhuo Eye, Ding Quan saw many beings of very high age; fish-like soul beasts over 70,000 or 80,000 years old were not uncommon in this deep sea.

If there is a deep-sea demon whale king in the ocean that is nearly a million years old, then there are naturally many more beings that are hundreds of thousands of years old, and among them are also many ferocious beasts.

"The dual soul cores are indeed powerful. I can feel that Quan's soul power is far superior to mine."

Although Ling is now a Soul Douluo, she is actually the slowest among them when it comes to speed.

"With Quan's current strength, obtaining a spirit ring this time should be very easy."

Looking at the map in Ding Quan's hand, Wei'er realized that the three of them had now entered the deep sea area.

“Thunder attribute soul beasts are all extremely powerful, and not many people have seen the true appearance of this thunder attribute soul beast. The only thing that can be confirmed is that it possesses the thunder attribute.” Ding Quan shook his head. There was not much information about this soul beast. Only the fleet of the Sun Moon Empire that came out to hunt whale soul beasts had encountered it in this deep sea area.

These fleets were hunting whales for whale nectar, and they primarily targeted creatures that were over ten thousand years old.

Legend has it that this soul beast always appears amidst flashing thunderclouds, its body hidden within them. Although there are records of people seeing its true form, what they saw seemed to be a completely different soul beast.

Soon after this spirit beast appears, torrential rain will begin to fall, accompanied by a storm.

A spirit beast capable of altering celestial phenomena is no weakling. Thunderstorms are indeed common on the high seas, and such weather can be extremely dangerous for a fleet.

"It comes with heavy rain; in other words, it's likely to be present wherever there are thunderstorms."

"It might not take long to find it, let's go!" Ding Quan put away the map and headed towards the place marked on the map where thunderstorms were frequent.

Only Ding Quan and Ling Wei went out to sea this time to deal with the 100,000-year-old soul beast. Ding Quan and Ling Wei's current strength is more than enough. The others continued to cultivate on the mainland.

"The weather on this high seas is truly unpredictable!" Half an hour later, the three of them looked at the spectacular waterspout phenomenon in the distance. A huge column of water was sucking seawater into the air under the influence of the storm, while torrential rain poured down beside them, accompanied by a huge roar.

"Shall we go take a look?" Wei'er asked Ding Quan.

"Let's go." Ding Quan's golden-red eyes gazed at the magnificent scene in the distance, watching the bursts of lightning appearing in the sky, which indeed showed signs of soul power.

And its intensity exceeded his expectations.

However, if such a scene could truly be created by soul power, then it would indeed require immense strength.

"Quan, have you found anything?" Ling asked softly, noticing Ding Quan's somewhat serious expression.

"We need to be careful."

“Okay!” Wei’er nodded. Ding Quan’s strength is quite formidable now. Ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts are not worth his attention. So, if it is a soul beast that she needs, then this soul beast will be very strong.

A layer of soul power condensed around the group, and they then entered the area of ​​the thunderstorm.

The storms around here are so strong that they can push seawater up into the sky. Such strong winds would be a disaster if they happened in a coastal area, but they are not a problem for Ding Quan and his group.

The storms in the far north are far more violent than this. Although the force of the falling seawater is immense, it cannot stop the group.

As they ventured deeper into the torrential rain, the falling seawater crashed against the surface, and the moisture became increasingly pervasive. If viewed directly with the naked eye, the visible distance was less than ten meters.

A surge of spiritual energy emanated from Ding Quan, and then the Dragon Abyss Sword appeared directly in his hand.

Looking at the mark on the hilt of the Longyuan Sword, the blue mark on the Longyuan Sword now has a hint of white, exuding a touch of coldness.

Ding Quan nodded to Ling and Wei'er beside him, then his figure soared into the sky, instantly heading towards the heavens.

Eight terrifying spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, two black, and three red—appeared on Ling's body. A snow lotus emitted a terrifying chill, freezing the seawater falling within a radius of dozens of meters. The seawater then floated on the surface of the sea.

A terrifying sword intent swept out from the clouds above the sky.

"Sister, Quan has met with that soul beast!"

"I never expected that this soul beast would be hiding in the clouds!" Ling and Wei'er watched as a bolt of lightning suddenly burst forth in the sky, illuminating the dim surroundings and revealing a four-legged shadow emerging from the clouds.

"This shadow looks just like a tiger!" Vera exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the shadow.

"Maybe it just looks like one." In the information, some people did see that it looked like a tiger, but tigers don't live in the clouds. This could very well be a spirit beast that looks like a tiger.

"However, with its lightning attribute, it's definitely perfect for me."

"Something's not right. This soul beast's aura doesn't seem like that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

boom!
A powerful roar resounded in the sky, instantly tearing a gap in the clouds and letting a ray of sunlight shine down from the heavens, only to be blocked by the clouds again in an instant.

The powerful fluctuations in soul power made Ling frown slightly; this soul beast was actually able to fight against Ding Quan.

Ding Quan now possesses dual Yin-Yang soul cores, and his bursting soul power far exceeds that of the past.

Senior Xue Di said that Ding Quan's current strength is already comparable to some ferocious beasts, and even comparable to the previous Ice Bear King Xiao Bai.

The previous Ice Bear King, Xiaobai, was a terrifying being with nearly 300,000 years of strength. Now, this soul beast is actually able to contend with Ding Quan; this soul beast is definitely not an ordinary being with only 100,000 years of lifespan.

An existence that has existed for over 100,000 years can only be—

Ferocious beast!

Ling's expression changed. If it really was a ferocious beast, Wei'er's current physical strength would not be able to absorb its soul ring.

Seven spirit rings appeared on Wei'er's body: two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red. Purple-gold lightning flashed around Wei'er's body.

Vera felt the pressure from the sky, and her soul power suddenly erupted, transforming into a streak of purple-gold light that flew towards the clouds.

"Weier!"

As Ling watched Wei'er's figure vanish before his eyes in the blink of an eye, his first and sixth soul rings lit up. At the same time, terrifying cold air emanated from his body, and his soul power poured out. Then, the sea surface instantly began to freeze and spread rapidly.

Ding Quan, wielding the Dragon Abyss Sword, shattered a surge of soul power that had condensed into a water vapor resembling a fierce tiger.

Above Ding Quan in the clouds was a pale blue beast that looked like the Qilin from his memory. It had no fur, but rather scales like dragon scales.

However, Ding Quan was certain that it did not have dragon blood; it was a soul beast that he did not know and had never heard of before.

Clouds and mist swirled around its massive body, which was over ten meters tall, while blue lightning crackled around it.

Despite its enormous size, it can run through the clouds without wings. Its four legs are covered with dark blue claws, and its eyes, which seem to have no pupils, emit blue lightning.

What surprised Ding Quan was not its appearance, but its strength.

This is a ferocious beast that is over 200,000 years old!
"Human Soul Masters! How dare you come here!" A deep voice rang out, filled with disbelief.

This is the deep sea area, and with the storms here, the human soul masters I've seen before would all avoid it; no one has ever dared to venture deep into this place.

And then, unexpectedly, one appeared before them—a Soul Master of immense power.

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

"You want my spirit ring and spirit bone!" Wisps of cloud flew out, then transformed into various shapes, rushing towards Ding Quan.

Stab it!

A bolt of purple-gold lightning suddenly surged out from below just as Ding Quan was about to make his move, instantly shattering the clouds and mist.

Ahoo~!

A tiger's roar resounded, and then a purple-gold thunder tiger, more than ten meters long and with wings on its back, flew out directly from under the clouds, unleashing terrifying lightning that illuminated the dark clouds once again.

"I want your spirit rings and spirit bones!" Seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red—swirled around the Purple-Gold Thunder Tiger, and Wei'er's voice came from within.

"This is!" The strange beast looked at the appearing Vera and took a few steps back.

Although Vera's aura is not as strong as its, Vera possesses the ultimate lightning attribute.

The blue lightning on this beast is very powerful, probably similar to the lightning attribute of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Naturally, it was suppressed when faced with the ultimate attribute.

Ding Quan watched as the Purple-Gold Thunder Tiger flapped its wings and instantly flew towards the beast that was now smaller than her. Wei'er was really direct; she had truly figured out how to use the Martial Soul True Body.

Although the beast is powerful, it shouldn't be able to harm Vera, who is currently under the protection of the evil god.

In addition, the suppression caused by Vera's attributes made it difficult for it to exert its full strength.

Ding Quan's spirit rings appeared: two yellow, one purple, two black, one gray-red, and two red—eight spirit rings in total.

"Seventh Soul Skill - Emperor Sword True Form!"

The hundred-meter-long Dragon Abyss Sword shot into the sky from Ding Quan's body, followed by a snow-white aura emanating from him.

Kaka!

A chill rose from the surroundings, and the clouds began to freeze. The terrifying cold enveloped an area of ​​two to three thousand meters around. The clouds began to freeze, and ice crystals emerged, transforming into sharp ice blades with condensed sword energy, which roared towards the strange beast.

A burst of lightning erupted from the beast, its speed suddenly increased, and it then transformed into several identical figures, running in all directions.

They actually ran away?

Ding Quan was somewhat surprised to see this. This guy was a ferocious beast that had been around for 200,000 years, and it was already trying to run away before it had even used its full strength.

It ran away without even noticing how powerful the aura emanating from Ding Quan's spirit rings was. While a spirit master might not be able to sense anything unusual about Xue Di's aura, a spirit beast could perceive it all too clearly.

So many terrifying soul beasts have become his soul rings, does he still have a chance to survive if he stays here?
Immediately, a terrifying chill came from another direction, and the beast looked over sharply, its eyes filled with shock.

Three 100,000-year soul rings!
Moreover, the aura emanating from two of them... indicates they are beings even more powerful than myself.

Although this person's aura was not as strong as the one they had just fought, his strength was equally formidable, and those lightning illusions had no effect on them.

A giant snow lotus appeared directly above the clouds, followed by a terrifying burst of cold air that caused the clouds to freeze rapidly.

Ling had already released his Martial Soul True Form, and seeing the strange beast trying to escape, he directly blocked its retreat.

A silvery-white aura swept past, and the strange beast transformed into a bolt of lightning, rapidly heading towards the sea. Seeing this, Ling nodded to Ding Quan and Wei'er, and then the group of them instantly flew towards the sea.

collapse!
The beast landed on the ice, leaving a white impact mark. Then it looked up at Ding Quan, who was holding the giant Dragon Abyss Sword. A bolt of purple-gold lightning struck the other side. Just as the beast was about to dodge in another direction, Ling appeared, and ice pillars instantly rose up on both sides.

“Perhaps we can talk!” Ding Quan opened a vertical eye on his forehead.

Between Ding Quan's brows, a silver-white soul core slowly rotated, and a terrifying mental pressure instantly enveloped the beast. Then, a silver-white ray shot out from Ding Quan's forehead, and a surge of mental power directly rushed towards the beast's head.

A moment later, a terrifying pressure of soul power appeared in this sea area.

In the deep sea, an eye more than three meters in diameter suddenly opened!

The aroma is delicious. If I could devour this aroma, perhaps I could take the final step!
The successor of the Sea God has appeared; this is my last chance to break through to the final step!
Looking back into the depths of the sea, its enormous body, as large as a sapphire, headed in one direction, its terrifying aura awakening many powerful beings in the ocean.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King has actually left the Demon Whale Sea!
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King had reached the final stage, so why would it leave the Demon Whale Sea during Tang San's assessment?

On Poseidon Island, Poseidon's gaze turned to the Demon Whale Sea. As the high priest of the sea god, he needed to know the whereabouts of the Demon Whale King.
