Chapter 204
Li Su used another divine teleportation talisman to continue his journey to the Sea Tribe’s holy city. Before long, he arrived above the city. This location was known only to him among all humans, apart from the Sea Tribe. “Wow,” Li Su remarked as he looked down and saw the countless sea beasts covering the water’s surface. This time, it was a massive sea beast uprising. It was unclear how many sea beasts were charging towards the Sea Tribe’s holy city. Why are these creatures causing such a commotion? Li Su wondered. The sheer number of these sea beasts was overwhelming, and there were quite a few powerful ones among them. It wasn’t likely that someone had organized them. It would require an incredible ability to pinpoint and drive so many sea beasts to attack the Sea Tribe’s holy city within the vast expanse of the North Sea.
Indeed, anyone with that level of capability could easily obliterate the Sea Tribe’s holy city. Like the great power that churned the seas thousands of years ago, the Sea Tribe’s previous holy city was destroyed by that immense force with a single strike from the sea surface and through an unknown water depth. When one possessed absolute strength, there was no need for schemes or tricks. Of course, nothing was ever absolute. However, Li Su felt that this sea beast uprising was not a result of human intervention. North Sea Spring Source, he thought. It could only be the North Sea Spring Source. The North Sea Spring Source could draw unique energy from the entire North Sea to give birth to spring water that could enhance bloodlines. Li Su realized this while refining the spring water. This substance was not very friendly to sea beasts. Could this unique energy be born without reason?
From another perspective, the North Sea Spring Source could be seen as drawing what was originally scattered throughout the North Sea, a form of “fortune” belonging to sea beasts, and channeling it to enhance the Sea Tribe. Tens of thousands of years ago, the Sea Tribe was incredibly powerful, and sea beasts had no opportunity to rebel. However, at present, it seemed that the Sea Tribe and Sea Beasts were both in the process of recovery, with Sea Beasts’ recovery rate far surpassing that of the Sea Tribe. This was quite normal.
There were an overwhelming number of sea beasts, and in the initial stages, they might have even overpowered the Sea Tribe. As a result, after the North Sea Spring Source had been operating for more than a decade in the Sea Tribe’s holy city, it incited the sea beasts, leading to a massive revolt. When these sea beasts rebelled, it triggered even more to follow suit. This was an instinctive response, as they all aimed to destroy anything threatening their survival and reproduction, in this case, the North Sea Spring Source.
Survival and reproduction were fundamental instincts for all life, especially for sea beasts. Even fifth-layer sea beasts joined the uprising.
Once Li Su grasped the situation, he stowed away his flying boat and swiftly set up an array of flags. These flags covered a vast area, spanning thousands of miles in all directions, forming an extensive array.
As Li Su took action, innumerable light beams appeared in the sky. Sunlight from a thousand-mile radius converged, and a massive mirror emerged, absorbing all the sunlight. Li Su allowed the sunlight to pour into the mirror continuously. After a while, he deemed it sufficient and moved his hands, causing the mirror to brighten. A highly visible, scorching pillar of light descended from the sky.
Having reached the Divine Transformation stage, he harnessed the power of the heavens and earth, not only using it himself but also maximizing its potential through his self-created Flame Light Array.
The result was a resounding “Boom!” as a hole dozens of miles in diameter was immediately created on the water’s surface, wiping out all sea beasts within it. Li Su then dove into the seawater. The Sea Tribe’s holy city was directly beneath this point, in the deep waters. He urged the Sea Tribe members, “Block them. We can’t let them destroy the spring source. Our reinforcements are almost here.”
At this stage, the defenses of the Sea Tribe’s holy city had already been breached by the sea beasts. Their sheer numbers posed a significant challenge. The marine environment was three-dimensional, with the total number of life forms in the ocean surpassing those on land.While most of these life forms served as prey, the Sea Tribe’s residents in the holy city fought with all their might. Over ten Nascent Soul level Sea Tribe members, one Divine Transformation level Sea Tribe member, and an additional 100 Golden Core level Sea Tribe residents were stationed there. They were all engaged in a fierce battle.
In the sky, a colossal black dragon grappled with a massive sea beast boasting thick skin and agility. They realized the Azure Dragon Beast was extremely formidable, and even Senior Mo Lin could only hold it at bay. They decided to retract their defense lines and focus on guarding against other fourth-order sea beasts.
Among the Divine Transformation level Sea Tribe members stationed there, Mo Lin was the most prominent figure. While she was on the battlefield with the fifth-layer sea beast, no other sea beast dared to approach her. However, she couldn’t assist the other Sea Tribe elites. Mo Lin struggled to hold her own against the formidable fifth-layer sea beast. With her engaging, the Sea Tribe elites found it tough to maintain their defenses.
Suddenly, another fifth-layer sea beast charged out, a Thunder Stingray, incredibly fast and capable of releasing thunder. Mo Lin was now dealing with two more potent fifth-layer sea beasts, and her pressure mounted rapidly. She had to retreat to the plaza, where the last defense formation and the North Sea Spring Source were located. Those two fifth-layer sea beasts, along with numerous fourth and third-layer sea beasts, descended upon the area. The final defense formation couldn’t withstand their assault.
The Sea Tribe elites were filled with despair, even some of the Golden Core stage Sea Tribe members. Mo Lin, despite her powers, couldn’t help but feel helpless.
At that critical moment, a blindingly bright pillar of light descended from the sky. As it touched down, it caused the seawater to evaporate, illuminating the deep seabed. The fifth-layer sea beast sensed the danger and quickly ascended, spewing thunder. This caused a tremendous collision, clearing the surrounding seawater and injuring the fifth-layer sea beast.
The Sea Tribe elites were left in awe. From the radiant pillar of light emerged a man with eyes that shone like the stars, even brighter than the sun and moon. It was as if a celestial god had descended to the mortal realm. They joyously realized it was Senior Li. Even the black dragon and Mo Lin were captivated by his presence!
