Chapter 1381: Penglai; Killing the Sky Devouring Whale

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The 10,000-foot-long energy sword unleashed by Unnamed that was wielded by the huge golden avatar slashed across the huge fierce beast’s body swiftly and mercilessly. It cut off almost a third of the beast emperor’s body.

It bellowed angrily.

Soundwaves swept out, stirring up a storm with the sea beast emperor in the center.

Lu Zhou put away his avatar and Unnamed. In just a blink of an eye, he had risen higher in the air. He lifted his hand and manifested his astrolabe, placing it in front of Yu Zhenghai’s lotus.

The astrolabe that seemed to be 10,000 feet in diameter completely blocked the force of the soundwaves.

Alas, the advantage of soundwaves was that they could travel past anything. Although Lu Zhou had blocked the most destructive force from the soundwaves, the remaining force still sent Yu Zhenghai and over 1,000 Penglai Sect disciples flying back. They seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

The thunderous bellow shook the sky and the earth. Even a Venerable Master would not underestimate a furious beast emperor.

At this time, Qin Naihe manifested his astrolabe and cooperated with Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong to form a second line of defense to block the soundwaves.

Lu Zhou looked at the incomparably huge whale-like fierce beast. The part that he had severed had dropped into the sea, dyeing the water purplish-red.

The law of the sea was that the big fishes ate the small fishes. When one-third of the whale-like fierce beast’s body dropped into the oceans, countless sea beasts swam toward it, tearing the flesh apart and eating it.

The sea continued to roil as blood continued to dye it red. It was red as far as the eyes could see.

Splash!

The whale-like fierce beast fell back into the sea. It thrashed around furiously, sending the sea beasts and the beast kings flying in the air.

Lu Zhou thought the sea beasts had gone crazy, but when he took a closer look, he realized that was not the case. The seawater and blood droplets in the sky had formed many blood arrows that glowed with a dim light.

“Whitzard,” Lu Zhou called out softly.

Whitzard was already prepared. It reared back as it let out a cry before it spat out a white light orb toward Lu Zhou.

The light orb enveloped Lu Zhou, restoring his divine power almost immediately.

After Whitzard consumed the second beast essence, it could now restore his divine power twice without needing to rest.

Apart from Whitzard, Lu Zhou also had the blue avatar that could restore his divine energy.

“I want to see how long you can last!” Lu Zhou charged forward. At the same time, the Purple Glazed Ceramic, which he had imbued with more than half of his divine power, appeared in his hand.

The Purple Glazed Ceramic shone dazzlingly like a moon in the night sky or a peerless pearl. With the divine power, its infinity-grade’s ability had also been grown several times stronger.

“Absolute Zero?” someone asked.

“It’s not as simple as Absolute Zero…”

Before those people could finish speaking, their jaws dropped. They thought their eyes were playing tricks on them.

The Purple Glazed Ceramic seemed to tear the void apart as Lu Zhou held it in his hand and used the power of the Dao to stop everything.

Ordinary Venerable Masters could only stop the flow of time for a few seconds at best. However, the time extended greatly for Great Venerable Masters.

The sea was like a frozen painting at this time. The blood arrows hovering in the air were frozen, the red seawater was frozen, and the severed limbs and carcasses floating in the sea were frozen; everything was frozen.

Lu Zhou swooped past the arrows and the sea beasts. When he came close to the surface of the water, he pushed his hand down.

Then, time began to flow again.

It did not affect Lu Zhou’s senses very much when things returned to normal. The only thing was that he had arrived next to the sea beasts in a blink of an eye.

The ice continued to spread. It was even more extreme than before. In the sky, in the sea, all the sea beasts were frozen in an instant.

After the blood arrows were frozen, they fell onto the frozen surface of the sea.

The frozen sea beasts shattered when they landed on the frozen surface of the sea.

With just this move, Lu Zhou killed tens of thousands of sea beasts.

Lu Zhou manifested his astrolabe and lifted it above his head, blocking the ice, flesh, and whatever else that were dropping from the sky.

After a while, the frozen surface of the sea was littered with the sea beasts’ carcasses.

Lu Zhou lowered his hand. He was the only one standing indifferently and unharmed at this moment.

The clouds parted, allowing the rays from the setting sun that were blood to shine down on the frozen sea’s surface.

Lu Zhou waited silently, listening for movements from the sea beasts. For a long time, there was no sound at all.

Meanwhile, the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion and the disciples of Penglai Sect who were watching had long grown numb. No matter what words they used to describe Lu Zhou’s might, they seemed insufficient and pale. In the end, they thought it was best to just silently watch.

After another 15 minutes passed, there was still no movement to be heard under the surface of the sea.

The people watching from above could no longer hold back their curiosity.

“Is it dead?” Kong Wen asked, puzzled.

“It won’t die so easily. A sea beast emperor has at least three hearts. However, it won’t live for long. The lower half of its body has been severed and frozen. It’s only a matter of time before it dies.”

Everyone nodded and waited patiently.

Another 15 minutes silently passed by.

Crack!

Cracks formed on the ice again.

Lu Zhou frowned slightly. The stubbornness of the whale-like fierce beast had exceeded his expectations.

The seawater began to gush out from the cracks, washing off the blood on the cracks.

Then, a huge crack that spanned 10,000 feet appeared; it looked like a moat.

Lu Zhou continued standing with his hands on his back, completely unaffected. He looked at the sea beast through the crack indifferently as it began to surface.

Finally, its humongous body emerged, breaking the layer of ice. Its head itself spanned hundreds of feet, capable of covering the sky itself.

Lu Zhou slowly moved before finally coming to a halt in front of the whale-like fierce beast.

The whale-like fierce beast’s eyes were bloodshot; its blood vessels were huge. Its eyeballs rolled in their sockets as it looked at the tiny human in front of it. Then, it began to retreat.

Lu Zhou asked tonelessly, “Why did you attack the human territory?”

The whale-like fierce beast opened and closed its gigantic maw, wanting to make a sound but it only ended up spitting out blood.

Splash!

Its lower jaw was still submerged in the water. The opening and closing motion of its maw stir up the seawater.

Its body was dark, and its fins were like sharp knives.

When Kong Wen looked at the dying whale-like fierce beast, Kong Wen said with a sigh, “So it’s a Sky Devouring Whale…”

“A Sky Devouring Whale?”

“There are many types of whale-like fierce beasts. It’s one of the strongest whale sea beasts. Its size is only second to the legendary Kun,” Kong Wen explained.

“Kun?”

“According to ancient records, there’s a beast in the extreme north that’s leviathan-sized. Its size is beyond our imagination. It’s called the Kun. It’s much bigger than beast emperors that are thousands and thousands of feet wide,” Kong Wen said.

“It’s so big?!” Little Yuan’er exclaimed in shock.

Kong Wen said, “Not everyone has seen the Kun. There are rumors that the Kun is also an Equalizer that guards the balance of the sea. However, does it obey those from the Great Void? After all, the Great Void isn’t in the sea, right?”

“Is it really impossible for it to be located under the sea?” Little Yuan’er asked.

“Humans are ultimately humans. They can’t survive under the sea for long. There are intelligent aquatic beings that learned the human language. Those that resemble humans are referred to as the merfolks. However, sea beasts will always be sea beasts; they’re not humans,” Kong Wen said.

“I agree with Brother Kong,” Qin Naihe said, “In ancient times, before the Great Void vanished, humans sought common ground with many strange tribes in the Great Void. Those from humanoid tribes were far stronger than humans. They bullied the weak and tried to annihilate the human race.”

Qin Naihe’s words reminded the others of the Void Chest tribe.

“Alright. Our topic has drifted too far away. Let’s just watch the battle.”

Everyone dismissed their thoughts and looked down.

The Sky Devouring Whale made gurgling noises before it suddenly flopped to the side.

“Ding! Killed the Sky Devouring Whale.. Reward: 20,000 merit points.”
