Douluo Continent: Breaking the Million-Year Barrier, the Golden Ranking Exposes Me

Chapter 29 The Mermaid Clan

Shrek Academy.

"Deep Sea Demon Whale. Indeed, the depths of the sea are unfathomable."

Mu En spoke slowly, his eyes filled with deep apprehension, "Ten thousand years ago, that Sea God fought a fierce battle with a Deep Sea Demon Whale King who was nearly a million years old. This Demon Emperor is probably closely related to him."

Yan Shaozhe gasped: "Six hundred thousand years, and judging from the description, it's almost invincible in the ocean!"

"No wonder it's ranked tenth on the list. The sea is far larger than the land, and we have no idea what kind of things are hidden within it!"

Xuanzi's expression turned solemn: "It seems that our understanding of this world is still too narrow."

"Besides the Starry Sky Forest, the endless ocean is also something we need to respect."

Star Dou Forest, core area.

Di Tian looked at the phantom of the Demon Emperor, a hint of surprise flashing in his golden dragon eyes.

"Deep Sea Demon Whale. I didn't expect that clan would still have such powerful descendants. Six hundred thousand years, they certainly deserve to have a place in the world."

Brigitte said softly, "The sea is vast and boundless, so it is only natural that it would give birth to such beings."

"I just wonder what this Demon Emperor's attitude is towards the land."

Xiong Jun snorted, a hint of defiance in his voice: "So what if it's been 600,000 years? Once we're on land, I might not be afraid of her!"

The Demon King remained calmer: "There must be a reason why the Golden List ranks it tenth. The power of the sea should not be underestimated."

Gu Yuena's purple eyes remained calm as she said indifferently, "The authority over the ocean has some connection with the dragon race. If necessary, we may make contact."

The endless deep sea, the unknown land.

Unlike the sensation caused when other spirit beasts receive rewards.

The sea area where the Demon Emperor resided was eerily silent.

Only the golden pillar of light from the Golden List, like a passage to the underworld, pierced through the seawater.

It enveloped the massive, mountain-like body of the deep-sea demon whale.

The immense ocean power and the trace of destructive origin contained within the pillar of light surged wildly into the Demon Emperor's body.

"Boom boom boom!"

Her aura was rising at an alarming rate.

The surrounding seawater was not jubilant, but rather frozen and annihilated in fear.

However, beneath this immense joy of increased power...

A pent-up resentment and hatred that had been building up for millennia, almost solidifying into a tangible substance.

Like an underwater volcano, it surged and raged within her heart!
"Power. More power!"

A woman's voice, chilling to the extreme and seemingly capable of freezing the soul, echoed in the abyss.

That was the Demon Emperor's inner voice.

"But that's not enough, far from enough!"

Her consciousness uncontrollably returned to that cataclysmic moment ten thousand years ago.

She "saw" her ambitious husband, who was just one step away from shedding his mortal form and becoming a million-year-old soul beast—the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!

He was so powerful, so proud, ruling over thousands of miles of sea.

It is the true ruler of the ocean!
However, all of this was thwarted by that figure, that human wielding the Trident of Poseidon, who claimed to be the successor to a godhood—Tang San.

Utterly destroyed!
She "saw" her husband's massive body disintegrate under the golden trident.

Seeing that the whale pearl, which contained 99% of the cultivation power, was taken away.

I saw that indomitable soul, wailing and annihilating in the divine light.
"Tang San!!!"

A terrifying soul storm suddenly erupted, centered on the Demon Emperor.

The seawater within a radius of several kilometers was instantly emptied, creating a brief vacuum zone.

Countless deep-sea creatures affected by the attack were reduced to dust before they could even scream.

"Ten thousand years! A full ten thousand years!"

The Demon Emperor was filled with resentment: "You took my husband's life, destroyed the hope of my people, and cut off my path to heaven!"

"This hatred and resentment cannot be washed away even by pouring out all the water in the world!" She felt the even stronger power bestowed by the Golden List, and that trace of destructive origin gave her a glimmer of hope for revenge.

But this did not quell her hatred; on the contrary, it was like adding fuel to the fire!
"The realm of gods, the sea god, hahahaha!"

She let out a low, maniacal laugh, full of sarcasm and resentment.

"Why do you think you're above us, able to decide the life and death of all beings? Why is my husband's pursuit of power considered going against the heavens?"

"Tang San, you just wait!"

The Demon Emperor's will, like the coldest ice spikes, pierced through layers of space, pointing towards the realm of gods.

"Wait until I completely merge with this source of destruction, wait until I unify the power of all the seas."

"I will definitely tear down your Temple of the Sea God and destroy the foundation of your faith!"

"I want the sea god to be gone from this world!"

Her hatred for Tang San had long surpassed the simple revenge for killing her husband.

It was a protest against the injustice of fate.

It was the only obsession that sustained her through millennia of endless loneliness and resentment, and her relentless pursuit of greater power.

The reward of being listed on the honor roll was not an honor for her.

It's fuel for revenge!
Various human forces.

Forces such as the Sun Moon Empire, the Holy Spirit Cult, the Body Sect, and the Haotian Sect.

After the initial shock, they quickly accepted the fact.

After all, compared to the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest whose cultivation levels have increased dramatically and whose origins are mysterious, they are far superior.

This demon emperor from the sea actually seemed more reasonable to them.

But it is precisely this "reasonableness" that makes them more aware of the vastness and danger of the Douluo world.

Besides the soul beasts on land.

In the ocean that occupies most of the Douluo Continent.

There also exists a terrifying force capable of overturning everything.

The Demon Emperor's inclusion on the list is like throwing a boulder from the deep sea onto an already turbulent lake.

This stirred up new and more complex ripples.

Just then, the list of successful candidates changed again.

[Ninth on the Douluo Continent Soul Beast Power Ranking: The Sea Princess!]

The ninth line of the list shone with a dreamlike azure light.

An elegant and graceful figure appeared.

Her upper body was that of a stunningly beautiful woman, while her lower body was a fishtail that shimmered with a crystal-clear luster.

Holding a scepter formed from pure water elements, she was surrounded by melodious singing and the vast ocean atmosphere.

[Rewards: Purification of the Mermaid Royal Bloodline, Increase of Soul Beast Age by 60,000 Years, Further Expansion of Ocean Authority, and Acquisition of the Innate Divine Ability "Hymn of the Sea God"!]

"Another sea tyrant!"

"The sea princess of the mermaid clan! Six hundred thousand years of cultivation!"

Just how many terrifying beings are lurking in this sea?

The inclusion of the sea princess on the list once again confirms the unfathomable depths of the ocean.

Two consecutive maritime overlords have made the list, both ranking in the top ten.
This sent a chill down the spines of all terrestrial creatures.
