Chapter 1400
That was none other than the Vast Sea Cosmic Crystal that he had obtained from Elder Long, except its initial blue color had since turned golden.
There was an indistinct symbol on the surface of the crystal depicting a golden trident, and Tang Wulin focused his spiritual power on that golden symbol.
Right in that instant, Tang Wulin felt a faint buzzing sound ring out in his mind. The sound was very faint, and it seemed to have originated from the golden trident symbol.
As soon as this buzzing sound appeared, Tang Wulin felt as if his mind had been instantly transformed into a turbulent ocean. One golden wave rose up over another, with each successive wave rising higher than the previous one.
On top of that, a projection of himself had appeared in this golden sea that was his mind, and it was like a mirror image of his current situation, where his physical body was also hovering deep within the ocean.
The only thing that was different was that this projection of Tang Wulin had a golden trident symbol on its forehead.
This was the legendary weapon of the Sea God; had it been left to him by his father?
He could clearly recall that Harosha had exclaimed that he possessed the bloodline of a god, and now that he was witnessing the golden trident symbol appear on his own forehead, Tang Wulin's heart was filled with excitement.
This further verified that he really did have a god as a father. Ever since he was a small child, the only father he had known had been Tang Ziran, and Tang Ziran had also treated Tang Wulin as if he were his own flesh and blood. As such, the sudden emergence of this birth father had been rather jarring to him. However, his birth father had saved his foster parents and left him with some of his power even though the Divine Realm was in such a difficult situation; how could Tang Wulin not be touched by his fatherly love?
As a young man, he had never gone through a rebellious phase, and this was precisely because he had experienced far too many things. As a result, he knew that there were many situations that deprived one of the privilege of choice. Even as a god, his birth father had no choice but to abandon him, and this was necessitated by his circumstances, so he had never hated Tang San.
In this moment, as he appraised the golden trident symbol left to him by his birth father, his heart was filled with a profound sense of emotion and longing.
One day, he was going to find them so they could reunite as a family.
Golden light began to radiate from Tang Wulin's body, and the trident symbol on his forehead was giving off an aura of boundless authority. A series of changes began to take place as a result. The immense water pressure weighing down on Tang Wulin suddenly vanished, and as he opened his eyes, he discovered that a barrier of blue light had appeared around him.
What was even more remarkable was that in this deep-sea environment that was clearly devoid of light, he was somehow able to see extremely far into the distance. It was as if the ocean had transformed into a massive blue crystal!
All of the rejection and authority had already vanished, and it was as if the ocean were calling out to him like a dependent child calling out for their mother.
In this instant, Tang Wulin felt as if he had become a part of the ocean. His senses spread rapidly through the ocean even without any conscious effort from himself, instantly encompassing an area of hundreds of kilometers. On top of that, he was able to clearly glean the situation on the surface of the ocean several kilometers overhead.
His sensory scope had far exceeded what was possible for his Spirit Domain realm spiritual power; it was as if the entire ocean had become his domain, or an extension of his own body.
A thought immediately occurred to Tang Wulin: if his father were here, then he would most likely be able to force the federal fleet back to the Douluo Continent through the power of the ocean alone, even without using any weapons.
Of course, he wouldn't be able to accomplish that, but at the very least, he was able to see far more than before, and he seemed to be able to control a small area of the ocean as well.
His senses continued to rapidly extend outward, and the ocean began to guide him toward what he wanted to see.
He saw a series of ships slowly slicing through the waves like a pack of giant metallic beasts. There were over 100 large and medium-sized ships arranged into three carrier-based vanguard groups that were situated in a triangular formation.
The three aircraft carriers were enormous, and their decks were stacked with advanced soul fighter aircrafts. There were over four warships surrounding each of the aircraft carriers, and the giant aircraft carrier that was situated at the very forefront of the three vanguard groups had as many as eight warships around it. That was most likely the Sea God Fleet, which was commanded by Boundless Ocean Douluo Chen Xinjie.
This was the first time that Tang Wulin had ever witnessed such an incredible spectacle, and his heart was filled with astonishment. This was the power of modern technology and the true power of the federation!
There were protective soul barriers around the aircraft carriers that could be activated at a moment's notice, as well as many massive cannon barrels situated on the aircraft carriers. Those cannons weren't for soul missiles; they were designed for the federation's most advanced Sea God Missiles.
These types of missiles could gather water elements directly from the ocean through soul circuits, then convert those elements into offensive power. The most powerful Sea God Missiles possessed destructive power roughly equivalent to that of a sixth or seventh-grade soul missile, but the most fearsome thing about them was that they were able to draw upon an endless source of energy in the form of the ocean!
On the Douluo Star, it could be said that this was an invincible fleet, and this was what gave the federal military the confidence to invade the other two continents in a bid to unite the entire planet.
All of this reaffirmed what the submarine captain had told Tang Wulin earlier; the federal fleet really had arrived earlier than anticipated.
Right at this moment, Tang Wulin suddenly felt a change from one of the warships in the distance. Through the fluctuations in the water elements, he could clearly sense that the warship in question was accumulating energy.
Immediately thereafter, a ball of yellow energy erupted out of one of the warship's cannons amid a resounding boom, then sped away into the distance.
Had Xie Xie been discovered?
Tang Wulin hadn't done much research into marine weaponry; all of his knowledge on the subject stemmed from the information bestowed upon him by the submarine captain during this journey.
Recalling back to what the captain had told him, Tang Wulin vaguely recalled that a yellow energy blast was from a shockwave missile. Shockwave missiles were also known as disruptive cannons, and their main purpose was to disrupt all types of detection devices by sending powerful shockwaves surging through the air.
Generally speaking, shockwaves cannons were used to disrupt radar signals during marine battles. However, there was no marine battle that was currently taking place, so this cannon blast was clearly meant to serve a different purpose.
The ball of light exploded, and yellow light instantly encompassed the entire area within a diameter of around a kilometer. A yellow light barrier appeared in the air, and a humanoid figure emerged within the area encompassed by the light barrier before plummeting directly downward.
Xie Xie was currently kicking himself. He had been concealed in space this entire time, and as soon as he had discovered the three fleets, he had immediately sent a signal to the Holy Spirit Douluo. With his Space Time Dragon martial soul abilities, there was no way that he would've been discovered, but the signal waves from the signal he had sent to the Holy Spirit Douluo had been detected by a warship of the Sea God Fleet.
The Sea God Fleet was the federation's most elite fleet, as well as a direct subsidiary to the Battle God Hall. Not only did they have the best equipment, all of their personnel were extremely experienced. To put it in simpler terms, even the other two fleets combined may not be able to contend with it.
The warship had launched a shockwave missile without any hesitation, and everything had happened too abruptly; Xie Xie only had time to don his suit of battle armor before he was affected by the shockwave missile.
His head was currently ringing violently, and his entire body was trembling uncontrollably. As he was plummeting down from above, he was circulating his own soul power as quickly as he could in order to shake off these negative effects he had been afflicted by.
