Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 239 Unearths a Series of Treasures! The Legendary Fruit of the Ancients! Did it attract a deity from the capital?
The dominant whale-watching house, covering nearly 100,000 square meters, is magnificent and stretches as far as the eye can see.
At a glance, there are countless traveling whales.

The whales that travel here are mostly different species, and they are no longer limited to differences in skin color; they are almost bizarre and varied.

Some migratory whales have mouths of all sizes all over their bodies, and their mouths are full of terrifying sharp teeth. Even when they are in a dozing state, they are constantly opening and closing their mouths.

Some traveling whales have round bodies covered with monstrous limbs, including hands and feet. If you didn't know better, you might think that some powerful person with a perverse sense of humor had stuck them there, but that's not the case. Upon closer inspection, they actually look completely natural.

Some even grew thick legs, like two ancient Roman columns, supporting their enormous, spherical bodies as they pretended to sleep standing up.

But these are barely acceptable, enough to keep one from losing their mind.

Xia Fagen saw many traveling whales that were deformed and terrifying enough to be called evil creatures.

For example, one of them had countless tiny pores all over its body, which were constantly opening and closing, which was terrifying enough. But next to each pore, there were also many baby-like monster hands swaying from side to side.

In addition, there are traveling whales whose bodies are covered in mucus, leaving a puddle around their bodies, yet emitting a strange, sweet fragrance.

And there was a creature with two wings, but the wings were rotting, with flesh and blood constantly falling off with a pattering sound...

For some reason, the more Xia Fa saw these strangely shaped traveling whales, the more excited he became.

In the travel whale industry, there's a saying: the bigger the waves, the better the fish... no, the weirder the travel whale, the better the catch!

After all, just one glance at these traveling whales would make many people with weak minds want to run away as fast as they could, let alone those supernatural creatures and eerie beings without intelligence.
In this situation, before these alien traveling whales are captured, they naturally roam freely in the real world and the Protoss realm, finding treasures to devour and constantly replacing them, always keeping only the best treasures in their bellies.

Now that they've been caught, it naturally benefits humans and demi-humans.

At this moment, Xia Fa composed himself, his emotions slightly agitated, and pretended to select one of the traveling whales around him.
In reality, they were heading towards the traveling whale whose skin was covered with eyes.

With Nerva present, Shafa had no doubt that the other ancient whale-hunting families might already see him as a thorn in their side.

Therefore, if I don't buy my desired exotic traveling whale right away, it might get snatched away.

At that point, there will be endless price increases, and this group of people will be able to drag themselves into a vortex just by raising prices.

Fortunately, this is a top-tier whale watching lodge, with a sales assistant between every few whales, always ready to help customers make purchases.

Therefore, Xia Fa decided that once Nerva and the others relaxed their vigilance even slightly, he would seize the alien traveling whale covered in eyes!

Of course, if someone had already planned to buy it beforehand, Xiafa would have made the first move.

After finding valuable tissue twice in a row, he still trusted his intuition.

Xiafa strolled around casually, getting closer and closer to the traveling whale with eyes all over its body.

Several old men wearing whale-skin coats were wandering around him not far away.

He seemed ready to snatch any traveling whale he fancied from him.

These old whale hunters were all Nerva's men, and it was clear that He had sent them to make things difficult for Him.

Xia Fa muttered to himself, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and walked up to a strange traveling whale.

It was an ordinary-looking traveling whale. Not only was its skin a normal blue, but even its tail, eyes, and teeth were perfectly normal.

But if you look closely, you can see that its white belly folds are filled with countless whale lice, densely packed, crawling around along the folds.

This type of whale lice is not an ordinary whale lice, but is called "spirit-sucking whale lice".

Generally speaking, if you encounter a place in the ocean where whale lice gather, it often indicates that there are good treasures to be found.

The presence of so many leeches in the folds of this traveling whale's belly speaks volumes.

When Xia Fa first saw it, he was actually a little tempted, until the Nature Bee tapped him with its tail, indicating that there was nothing good inside.

But at this moment, he stopped in front of the traveling whale, rubbing his chin and pretending to observe it.

In that instant, the old men from the ancient whale-hunting families gathered together.

But seeing that Xia Fa hadn't made a move yet, they naturally couldn't just rush to snatch it.

Just then, Xia Fa suddenly clapped his hands together, as if he had confirmed something, and looked at the sales assistant not far away with shining eyes.

"Salesperson, how much is this exotic traveling whale?"

Before Xia Fa could finish speaking, one of the old whale hunters interrupted him, saying in an unquestionable tone:
“I’ll raise the price by 100,000 gold pounds; this exotic traveling whale is mine.”

The sales assistant, who had already jogged over after Xia Fa called out, immediately looked embarrassed upon seeing the situation.

"Distinguished guests, this exotic traveling whale costs two million gold pounds, but you..."

Xia Fa glanced casually at the old whale hunter, then turned to leave.
"Since that's the case, I'll give it to you; I don't want it anymore."

The old whale hunter from the ancient whale-hunting family hesitated, suppressing the burning desire in his eyes. He had previously thought he had successfully intercepted Xia Fa.

But suddenly, the old whale hunter realized something was wrong.

Xia Fa said he was going to leave, but in reality he seemed quite hesitant.

There's something fishy going on here!
I reckon that as soon as he leaves, Xiafa will immediately turn around and buy the traveling whale!

The old whale hunter's eyes flashed with a sneer, thinking to himself that young people really are young people, even their trickery is so obvious.

He turned around directly to the sales assistant and said decisively:

“Since he doesn’t want it, then sell it to me for two million one hundred thousand gold pounds.”

Xia Fa's performance of revealing five-colored and seven-colored light in the fungus-level whale watching house had already spread among the ancient whale-hunting families.

Now, seeing that this naive young man had inadvertently revealed his secret about the traveling whale he had his eye on right away, the old whale hunter was naturally going to teach him a lesson.

While teaching him a lesson, you can also steal the good stuff and extract the valuable information yourself. Why not?
Xia Fa stopped in his tracks as he turned to leave, as if he could no longer contain himself. He turned back, a hint of anger on his face.

"Old man, you're determined to go against me, aren't you? Fine, I'll play along today. I'll offer two million seven hundred thousand gold pounds!"

The old whale hunter gave a cold laugh:
“Young man, you’re too hot-tempered. I won’t argue with you. Two million eight hundred thousand gold pounds.”

"Two million nine hundred thousand!" Xia Fa followed without hesitation.

"Three million!" The old whale hunter didn't mince words.

"Three million one hundred thousand? I don't believe you can add more!" Xia Fa immediately retorted forcefully.

At this point, the old whale hunter seemed to have grown impatient and casually took out a whale-catching bag.

"Three and a half million, Xia Fa, go ahead and keep going if you dare."

As he spoke, he glanced at the other veteran whale hunters.

The old men from the ancient whale-hunting families were gathered around this exotic traveling whale, whose belly folds were infested with spirit-sucking lice. Some held magnifying glasses, while others held ancient books, each studying it in their own way.

At this moment, they all gave each other a reassuring look, confirming that Xia Fa was not bluffing.

Seeing this, the old whale hunter was completely relieved, and at the same time, he could no longer hide the burning desire in his eyes. He tossed the black bag to the sales assistant.

Judging from his posture, it seemed that he would buy it outright if Xia Fa didn't make any more bids.

Xia Fa pretended to clench his teeth, his eyes showing extreme hesitation. At first glance, it seemed as if he was weighing whether it was worth the risk of raising the price.

Finally, he clenched his fists tightly, almost gritting his teeth, and said, word by word:

"Three million seven hundred thousand gold pounds. Any higher and we might lose money on what we get after the dissection. Old man, go ahead and raise the price if you dare."

His words, though clearly a threat, sounded like a genuine flaw to the people who had gathered around.

Clearly, in everyone's eyes, this young man is too young.

What you're doing may seem like a threat, but in reality, isn't it just making it clear to others that there must be something valuable inside that exotic traveling whale you've set your sights on?
Those who can enter the Dominator-level Whale Watching House are all wealthy and powerful beings in the extraordinary world, and almost all of them are powerful, at least demigods or even angels, and of course, they have rich life experience.

At this moment, everyone felt they had seen through Xia Fa and realized that he was indeed a naive young man who had not experienced much of the wickedness of human nature.

The old whale hunter almost burst out laughing, shaking his head and sighing:

"Young man, young man, you are still too young. How about this, I'll offer three million nine hundred thousand gold pounds, and let this old man take the risk for you, how about that?"

Xia Fa glared at him suddenly, like a little lion about to explode in anger, but in the end he did not raise the price any further.

At this moment, he let out a long sigh, like a deflated balloon, his face showing the frustration that a young man couldn't hide. It seemed that he had finally learned his lesson and was ready to learn from his mistake.

The old whale hunter burst into laughter and gestured to the salesperson.

The sales assistant hurriedly nodded and bowed, scanning the platinum thread woven black bag with a scanner.

The number "three million nine hundred thousand" popped up on the scanner screen, making many people's nerves jump.

Even though everyone present was wealthy and powerful, three million nine hundred thousand gold pounds... was still a bit too high.

Only members of the ancient whale-hunting families, as well as those nobles or beings of the ruler rank or above, could probably afford to consume it.

Seeing this, Xia Fa finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That old bastard has finally taken the bait.

In fact, he had no idea why this exotic traveling whale, whose belly folds were infested with lice that sucked the life force of whales, had no good stuff in its belly.

Logically speaking, they should all be high-quality products; so many Soul-Sucking Lice should at least be at the level of seven-color light.

This is why, even after those experienced whale hunters tasted it together, they still took the bait.

If I didn't have the Natural Bee, I'm afraid I would have misjudged it too, thinking that something good must have come out of there.

At this moment, the old whale hunter laughed loudly, walked triumphantly to the front of the exotic traveling whale, and with a casual flip of his hand, immediately turned its plump body over.

Those hideous, venomous whale lice were about to crawl out of the folds of its abdomen and scatter.

Upon seeing this, many noble ladies showed a look of disgust on their pretty faces and involuntarily took a few steps back.

But just then, the old whale hunter casually waved his hand, freezing all the spirit-sucking whale lice.

He seemed completely unconcerned, casually picking up one of the plump, soul-sucking whale lice, tossing it into his mouth, and crunching it loudly. A rich, extraordinary power emanated from it, causing those around him to frown deeply.

Immediately, the old whale hunter flipped his hand and grasped an ancient whale-slicing knife, which at first glance looked like it was made from the bones of some unknown creature.

With a casual, incredibly fast slash, he had already cut a large gash in the belly of the exotic traveling whale.

Wow——! ! !
The next moment, an extremely dense blue light, almost condensing into water vapor, emerged first!

Upon seeing this, everyone around was shocked. The old whale hunter and several other old men had their eyes shining and their fists clenched, unable to contain their excitement any longer.

The reason is simple: under the three-color light, only white, purple, and golden light will emerge from the belly of the traveling whale.

Now, however, the strange traveling whale, which costs a whopping 3.9 million gold pounds, is the first to emit a bluish light from its belly.

This means... there's bound to be something good inside!

As for whether it is tri-color light, five-color light, or even seven-color light, we don’t know, but it certainly won’t be a loss!

Even some nobles who attend the annual whale watching festival have, based on their past experience, discerned that there are at least seven colors of light inside!
Blue light is rarely seen in tri-color and five-color light!

Of everyone present, only Xia Fa remained calm.

Because he had complete faith in the judgment of the Nature Bee and was certain that there couldn't be anything good inside.

Just kidding, the Nature Bee is a juvenile entity.
It was born and hatched from the bee egg planted on his shoulder by the real entity, the Patriarch of Ten Thousand Poisons, Veronica, combined with the burning sensation and strange electric current within his body. During the hatching process, it also consumed the bodies of many high-ranking creatures.

In this situation, how could the natural bee possibly make a wrong judgment?

Or, to put it another way, the bee of nature may not be able to judge just how good the good stuff inside the belly of a traveling whale is, but if it is certain that there is nothing good inside, then there is definitely nothing!

The crowd had already started to make a fuss, with people discussing it with envy.

"Such a rich blue light, this must be at the level of seven-colored light, right?"

"The treasures inside the traveling whales corresponding to the seven-colored light are guaranteed to start at three million gold pounds, and can even reach six or seven million. This old whale hunter still made a profit!"

"What a pity, this young man was outmaneuvered and ultimately refused to pay a high price. He's probably kicking himself now, haha."

What could be inside?

"I don't know, but if it's a fragment of an outer mystic treasure, or a sacred metal, or a rare supernatural creature that's been dormant, then we've really hit the jackpot."

"It could also be a fragmented version of a mysterious treasure!"

The tourists were discussing it seriously. In fact, even if they entered the top-tier whale watching house and pre-deposited nine million gold pounds, many people might not spend any money until the whale watching event ended.

I'm just here to watch the fun.

The reason is simple: in this palatial, top-tier whale watching house, any exotic traveling whale can easily cost millions of gold pounds, and there's no guarantee that you'll get anything good from it.

In this situation, even if many tourists are wealthy and powerful, they are not stupid and would not take such a risk.

Of course, the whale watching festival itself, or rather the gold prospectors' association behind it, does not prohibit this kind of behavior of just looking without buying.

On the contrary, after the whale watching event ends, the nine million gold pounds that tourists have pre-deposited for spending will be fully refunded if they have not spent it.

After all, when you're running a business, you need to build good relationships; there's no need to offend people for no reason.
Moreover, the fact that these important figures were willing to come was a great honor for the Gold Miners' Guild, so the guild naturally turned a blind eye to this behavior of only looking and not buying.

At this moment, the old whale hunter became even more excited, his bloodshot, cloudy old eyes fixed almost unblinkingly on the cut-open belly of the exotic traveling whale.

In the distance, Nerva, who was selecting other traveling whales, also glanced in this direction, especially at the appearance of this traveling whale whose belly was covered with lice.

But that one glance made His face immediately darken, and he cursed under his breath.

However, He did not come over to interfere, but shook His head in disappointment and continued to select His own traveling whale.

The next moment, under the watchful eyes of many important figures, an unexpected scene unfolded!

The intensely blue light emanating from the belly of the traveling whale was about to change into other colors.

However, it seemed to lose its strength and quickly dimmed.

The old whale hunter's expression changed immediately. He hurriedly stepped forward, as if trying to salvage something, but he seemed somewhat lost and didn't know what to do.

Immediately afterwards, with a "bang," the blue light completely dissipated.

The wound on the traveling whale's abdomen suddenly opened up, as if it could no longer support a heavy object.

With a soft thud, an extraordinary fruit, as big as a watermelon, rolled out!

This extraordinary fruit is not only about the size of a watermelon, but it also looks like a watermelon and smells just like one, with that sweet aroma.

But everyone knows that this can't possibly be a watermelon.

"A Divine Blood Fruit! This is a Divine Blood Fruit stained with the blood of an Outer God!"

A nobleman exclaimed in surprise, his words tinged with excitement.

"It is indeed the Divine Blood Fruit, but why is it only glowing blue, and why has the blue light dissipated?"

Another bounty hunter of angelic rank hesitated before speaking, looking completely confused.

It's important to know that if you cut open the belly of a traveling whale and find something of great value, there's always something good inside. This is a rule that has never been broken.

However, the fact that the strange traveling whale's belly only contained a blue light, which immediately dissipated, meant that even if it was a Divine Blood Fruit tainted with the blood of an Outer God, it was definitely problematic!
"What a pity. If this Divine Blood Fruit were consumed by a young overlord or extraordinary monarch who has signed the 'Fairy Tale World,' it could transform two secret abilities. If it were to transform into 'Thunderclouds' and 'Kingdom Legion,' its strength would increase dramatically. What a pity..."

One of the rulers, who had nothing better to do, spoke up. Without a doubt, among the important figures watching, he was the most insightful.

Unexpectedly, what was said in jest was taken to heart by Xia Fa, and his heart suddenly burned with excitement.

"A Divine Blood Fruit tainted with the blood of an Outer God could actually cause the power of a Hegemon-level Secret Contract to undergo a transformation?"

Suddenly, Xia Fa thought of Dictator, the extraordinary king who had signed the contract with the fairy tale world.

In particular, I recalled his eerie "Guardian Castle" and the "Rainbow Bridge" strewn with corpses.

At the time, he thought that this was due to some past experiences of the extraordinary king Dictator, which caused His ability to communicate with the fairy tale world to look like a dark fairy tale.

But now, Xia Fa suspects that the transformation of the Secret Contract ability is likely due to Dick's consumption of the corresponding Divine Blood Fruit...

Without a doubt, it has become stronger. The "Guardian Castle" was originally only for defense, but Dick's Guardian Castle... might be able to unleash an army of evil spirits.

Similarly, the "Rainbow Bridge" was originally intended for escape and teleportation, but Dick Tudor's "Rainbow Bridge" gives the impression of being able to drag enemies into hell.

"Could it be... that this Outer God was also a signatory to the fairy tale world, so when His blood stained the Extraordinary Fruit, it gave the Extraordinary Fruit, which was upgraded to a Divine Blood Fruit, such an incredible effect?"

Xia Fa made some speculations based on his knowledge of occultism.

From this perspective, if a Divine Blood Fruit of a Divine Deity or Outer God that has signed the [Silver Throne], [Gate of Stars], and [Mysterious Singularity] appears, I... could acquire it without regard to the cost.

Of course, it would be best to cut it out of the belly of a traveling whale.

After all, such a divine blood fruit would cost at least five or six million gold pounds.

At this moment, the old whale hunter's face had turned completely ugly; he still couldn't accept the result.

What was clearly cut out was a Divine Blood Fruit, a Divine Blood Fruit that could grant the signatory of the fairy tale world two secret abilities.

But why... is it just a bluish light?

In the end what happened?
Click!

Just then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the watermelon-shaped divine blood fruit cracked open.

Then, countless leeches, in a chilling way, emerged from it in dense swarms.

"Oh!"

A beautiful young noblewoman screamed and instinctively pushed him away.

boom! ! !
An immense gravitational force descended from the sky, completely crushing the spirit-sucking whale lice and the Divine Blood Fruit, which was now just an empty shell.

Xia Fa looked at the beautiful noble lady speechlessly, thinking to himself, "You're an angel, what are you afraid of..."

With a single, casual strike, I wiped out all those soul-sucking whale lice and crushed them into meat patties. They should be the ones afraid of you...

But in doing so, the truth is revealed.

It turns out that the Divine Blood Fruit was hollowed out by the Soul-Sucking Whale Lice that burrowed inside it!

Among the crowd, Prince Justinian, who had just arrived, clutched his chest, feeling an intense pang of pain.

The opportunity to become significantly stronger was right in front of him; he could have scraped together seven million gold pounds with Uncle Gaius if he gritted his teeth. Unfortunately, it was gone just like that…

He is the signatory of the fairy tale world; this divine blood fruit was practically made for Him!
"Impossible, this...this is impossible..."

The old whale hunter suddenly seemed to have gone mad. Losing 3.9 million gold pounds was already enough to break his heart, but the disappointment of making 6 or 7 million gold pounds was even more unbearable.

He glared at Xia Fa viciously, like a demon from hell. When he saw Xia Fa's ambiguous smile, he realized that he had been completely fooled.

But he was still not convinced, so he pounced on the traveling whale whose belly had been cut open, and with a wave of his sleeve, swept away all the spirit-sucking whale lice from the folds.

Tourists also craned their necks curiously, trying to see what was going on that could have misled several old whale hunters from ancient whale-hunting families.

However, even those beings with the status of rulers present could not discern the clues.

The folds on the belly of this traveling whale were so rough and smooth that there was no sign of them being pierced by whale lice.

Even if the whale is bitten through, these veteran whale hunters would never buy it.

Moreover, under normal circumstances, whale lice cannot bite through the thick, fleshy belly of a traveling whale.
After all, the Soul-Sucking Whale Lice is only equivalent to a fungus-level supernatural creature, while this traveling whale is close to a demigod level.

How could a supernatural creature at the level of bacteria possibly bite through the belly of a demigod-traveling whale?

This is also why those veteran whale hunters dared to compete with Xia Fa and ultimately made the purchase.

"Why is that...?"

The old whale hunter sat down on the ground in despair, his face turning completely ashen.

At this moment, Xia Fa walked over, a playful look on his face.

"Old man, you keep calling me a young man. You still have a lot to learn."

As he spoke, he flipped the traveling whale over, pinched its lips with both hands, and lifted it upwards.

Then, after rummaging around for a bit, it pulled out one of its teeth with a "pop".

Upon closer inspection, everyone noticed a tiny hole the size of a pinhole in the back alveolar bone where the whale's tooth had been pulled out!

At this point, Xia Fa didn't even need to explain; everyone already understood that the Soul-Sucking Whale Lice... must have crawled in through this hole!

The hole was extremely small, and located in such a strange and tricky place, hidden by teeth, that under normal circumstances no one would have been able to find it.

"What burrowed in was actually just a newly hatched Spirit-Sucking Whale Lice, probably only the size of an aphid, but after swallowing the Divine Blood Fruit, it naturally multiplied to this extent."

Xia Fa casually tossed out a sentence, turned around, and walked straight to the other alien traveling whales to begin selecting one.

Only the group of old whale hunters, their faces ashen, remained, along with the astonished dignitaries and noble ladies.

……

"That way, we should be able to buy that exotic traveling whale openly and legitimately..."

Xia Fa looked at the traveling whale with eyes all over its body not far away.

The closer he got, the stronger his premonition became.

At the same time, the bee of nature bumped into him with its belly, indicating that there was indeed something good inside!

Actually, the location where the spirit-sucking whale louse had burrowed was also told to him by the Nature Bee.

Of course, this information was confirmed when a spirit-absorbing whale louse burrowed inside, which allowed the Nature Bee to find it using a combination of talent and divination.

However, in this way, his image as a master whale hunter has probably been completely established.

At the same time, he also established his own cunning.

In this way, Xia Fa understood that when he actually went to buy this exotic traveling whale covered in eyeballs, as long as he acted high-profile, no one would dare to steal it.

Because most people would probably think he's trying to scam someone again...

That's exactly the effect Xia Fa wanted.

After wandering around for a while, he finally arrived in front of the alien traveling whale whose body was covered with eyeballs. At this moment, the premonition that he could cut out something good was extremely strong.

"Sales assistant."

Xia Fa casually shouted something, but it immediately attracted the attention of many people.

However, when the tourists, especially those from other ancient whale-hunting families, saw the calm expression on Xia Fa's face, they trembled and dared not come over to snatch it anymore.

With past examples already laid out before us, who knows if this kid is serious or not?
If it's true, then of course it's a huge profit; but if it's false, then it's a massive loss...

Seeing that no one dared to snatch it this time, Xiafa glanced around and saw Nerva walk to a more distant place, seemingly focused on selecting other traveling whales.

It's unclear whether He intended to defeat Him openly and fairly in the art of whale hunting, or if He had some other ulterior motive.

But Xia Fa could no longer care.

He then took out the commemorative badge for whale watching tourists, his tone becoming even more casual:
"How much? If it's too expensive, I won't take it."

Seeing his appearance, the veteran whale hunters who had gathered around again dared not make any rash moves, and did not even dare to raise their prices.

They were afraid that if they raised their offer and snatched the deal away, Xiafa would immediately back out.

By then, since they have already offered a price, if you don't buy it, you will be kicked out by the Gold Miners' Guild and lose face in front of so many nobles and powerful figures.

The sales assistant gave a very polite and sweet smile.

"Sir, the price of this traveling whale is two million seven hundred thousand. What do you think?"

At this point, Xia Fa naturally stopped pretending and, holding the whale watching tourist commemorative badge, voluntarily swiped it on the scanner.

"Row."

Seeing his decisiveness, and how he suddenly changed from casual to decisive at the last second before making the payment, the veteran whale hunters were immediately taken aback.

Oh no, I've fallen for that kid's trick again!
This time, the kid deliberately acted casually, making them think he was going to scam them like before, but then he bought it at the crucial moment!

This suggests that there might really be something good inside the belly of this strange, eye-filled traveling whale!

In that instant, the faces of these veteran whale hunters were more disgusted than if they had swallowed flies, and at the same time, they secretly hoped that Xia Fa had misjudged them.

Not far behind Shafa, Prince Tefaro and Prince Justinian, who were already standing together, looked at Shafa's back with a wry smile.

"To be honest, with Xia Fa's intelligence, he could easily outmaneuver these people."

Prince Justinian spoke, his face showing a look of anticipation.

However, having witnessed firsthand the hollowing out of a fairytale world's divine blood fruit, the pain on His face had not completely faded.

Tefal asked curiously:

"How to say?"

He only knew that Xia Fa was a future mysterious emperor with superb tactics, but he didn't know that Xia Fa was also very intelligent, although he had seen some clues in the second round of the Super Fighting Grand Prix.

Prince Justinian immediately recounted to Tefaro their previous encounter on the Red Porcupine, especially emphasizing Shafa's feat of breaking through the time-looping ghost realm and dealing with the entity "the sightseeing ship from which there is no escape".

Tefaro listened thoughtfully, then smiled as if suddenly realizing something.

"I see. So these ancient whale-hunting families actually dared to offend Xia Fa. This is going to be interesting..."

The two did not see that further behind them, in the palatial whale watching house, a scenic area reserved for the most distinguished guests, lay atop a palace-like, exclusive whale watching suite.

Marshal Gaius had already sat down next to Arthur, somewhat nervously but trying his best to remain composed as he spoke with the Speaker of the Myriad Machines School.

"To be honest, I'm a little jealous that Xia Fa is actually a member of your Augustus family."

Arthur smiled and continued:
"Has this kid ever made a mistake in his whale-hunting endeavors? I'm actually quite envious."

Marshal Gaius took a puff of his cigar and tried to speak in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant:
"To be honest, I don't know about that. By the way, Mr. Arthur, where is your student?"

Arthur laughed, somewhat annoyed:

“That silly Alexander thought his older brother was definitely at the Fungus-level Whale Watching House. He went to find Shafa at the Fungus-level Whale Watching House as soon as the whale watching event started. I just sent him a message, and he'll be here in a bit, that is—”

The chairman of the Myriad Machines School, a veteran transcendent monarch who had signed at least twenty secret contracts, was only halfway through his speech when he suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with surprise, and looked in the direction where Xia Fa was in the distance.

Marshal Gaius's hand trembled so much that his cigar almost fell off, and he looked at Xia Fa with great surprise and envy.

There, an extremely dazzling and intense nine-colored light was shooting into the sky!

Like an unstoppable beam of light, it shot towards the dome covered with ukiyo-e prints!
A top-tier whale-watching suite should naturally have an artistic flair.

The Gold Miners' Guild cleverly concealed various rituals, magic arrays, and magical formulas within the magnificent epic murals on the dome.

But at this moment, even those murals that recorded the ancient ancestors' pioneering of the land and their resistance against the strange seemed to be overshadowed by this nine-colored light!

Many important figures couldn't contain themselves any longer and got up directly from the tourist area, which only rulers were qualified to enter. In a flash, they arrived near Xiafa.

They certainly wouldn't rob it; instead... they'd prepare to buy it!

If Xiafa is willing to pay!
No matter how precious the treasure is, since it corresponds to nine-colored light, it is absolutely worth spending a lot of money to buy!
……

At this moment.

Xia Fa stood in front of the alien traveling whale that he had dissected, its entire body covered with eyeballs of all sizes, and was somewhat stunned.

He could sense that there were good things inside, but he never expected... it would be of this level!
Nine-colored light!

Nine-colored light... No matter what good it is, it's guaranteed to cost at least six million gold pounds, and could even be as expensive as ten million gold pounds!

Moreover, this is without any premium; it's entirely a case of getting what you pay for.

If those big shots start scrambling for it, the price could soar to 15 million gold pounds!

Of course, Xia Fa would only be willing to sell this good stuff if it was useless to him.

The nine-colored light slowly receded, as if hiding its sharpness within, and shrank into the belly of the strange traveling whale.

Xia Fa took a deep breath, and with a mix of trepidation and excitement, reached his hands into the belly of the traveling whale and began to rummage around.

This time it went surprisingly smoothly. As he touched it, he found a round object with a rough, rock-like surface.

At that moment, Xia Fa's heart suddenly stirred.

In this case, it's highly likely to be... an extraordinary fruit?
Is it the Divine Blood Fruit, one of the extraordinary fruits?

Or... the legendary Old Fruit?
In his excitement, Xia Fa glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that in the whale watching room, which was a tourist area accessible only to beings of the Sovereign rank, Arthur, the Speaker of the Myriad Machines School, and Marshal Gaius were watching him from afar.

Remembering Arthur's words, he felt more confident and stopped hiding his intentions, extending his hands in front of everyone.

The main reason was that he wasn't sure if this extraordinary fruit would be useful to him; if it wasn't, he could just sell it on the spot.

This place is full of nobles or powerful figures renowned throughout the entire planet Caligia. In their excitement, and out of a desire to save face, they might end up bidding far more than the original value of this extraordinary fruit. This is also why Xia Fa brought it out in public.

Of course, this is on the premise that it is confirmed that this extraordinary fruit is indeed useless to oneself.

It seemed as if it had finally emerged from the belly of this strange-looking, alien traveling whale, or as if it had seen the light of day again, or perhaps, it had come into contact with the presence of living people.

This extraordinary fruit, which at first glance looks like a round, grayish-brown rock, cracked its outer shell after a slight tremor.

At that moment, Xia Fa, whose strong premonition had begun to dissipate because he had already extracted something good, was suddenly jolted. Not only did that strong premonition resurface, but it was even several times, ten times, stronger!
"Wait, isn't this..."

In an instant, based on his knowledge of occultism, Xia Fa had a sudden realization.

That strong premonition... was never about finding anything good inside this strange, eye-covered traveling whale.

That strong premonition... came from the secret contract he had signed as the Silver Throne Overlord!

This is an extraordinary fruit... that can greatly enhance one's Silver Throne!

Click! Click! Click!

Just then, the void in the sky shattered like glass, and a unique aura from the Celestial Spirit Realm overflowed out.

Many of the migrating whales, which were in a dozing state, suddenly shuddered, as if they were about to wake up.

But as soon as the murals on the dome lit up, they fell silent again.

Before anyone could react to what was happening, the void shattered further.

At that moment, an extremely terrifying and powerful aura, carrying the pressure of a god, instantly emanated from it.

Yet, even that single wisp of liquid had already corrupted reality. Countless tentacles stretched out from the air, eyeballs without eyelashes appeared, and countless unknown murmurs and frantic roars resounded, while large swathes of slime seeped out from the empty space.

The marble floor was strangely covered with beautiful faces, their expressions distorted, emitting piercing, eerie laughter, yet tears streamed from their grayish-white eyes.

This is no longer just about a specific human or demi-human losing control; this is about... about the entire reality of this region spiraling out of control!

"From God... there is a God... who is about to break through the real world and come!"

The voice of one of the rulers trembled, and his face turned ashen, like paper.

Xia Fa was extremely surprised.

Just what level is this extraordinary fruit that I extracted? It actually attracted a wandering god from the Celestial Spirit Realm?

Wait, what should we do next?
Should we all run for our lives together?

"Ok?"

Just then, a cold and authoritative voice, carrying a questioning tone, rang out from the dome.

A terrifying aura descended from the sky, directly confronting the divine needle!
