“`
“This Vortex Tiger Whale’s mouth is too large to keep secrets; it seems it cannot be left alive.”
David’s gaze flickered, his intent to kill resolute.
“Meow.”
Sensing the thoughts of the Trainer, Daphne abandoned her earlier casualness of a cat toying with a mouse.
With a powerful leap, she disengaged from David’s shoulder, her body bursting into fierce flames that transformed into a streak of aurora tearing through space.
In an instant, the entire sky was filled with densely packed, brilliant flames.
Even though the Vortex Tiger Whale was a powerful Class VI middle-level beast and one of the elites in the Wastewater Archipelago seas, it was still shocked by the fire released by Daphne.
Water and fire, though mutually fostering and restraining, often allow water beasts to have a certain advantage when the strength difference is not significant.
The Vortex Tiger Whale had never imagined that a Class V upper-level peak beast, which it considered as insignificant as an ant, could unleash such a terrifying fire skill.
Intuition told the Vortex Tiger Whale that just this strike of fiery aurora was enough to severely injure it.
“Whine!”
At this critical juncture between life and death, the Vortex Tiger Whale had no time to care about its mortal enemy on the island, verging on death, as it let the rampant currents surge through its body, the Domination of a King fully unleashed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The terrifying currents congealed and compressed in the mouth of the Vortex Tiger Whale, forming countless tiger whales that crowded together, creating waves that could blot out the sun and the sky.
It was the force of the vast sea that could inundate and devour an entire island in an instant, chilling to the bone, and it was also the Vortex Tiger Whale’s signature skill, Vortex Tide Fury.
“This guy isn’t that powerful, but he sure is causing a big commotion,” David frowned slightly.
Having witnessed the might of beings from higher dimensions a few times now, the tsunami caused by a mere Class VI middle-level sea beast could hardly unsettle him.
What’s more, even the endless waves that could submerge continents could be completely obliterated by the afterglow of a Solar Blooming.
David’s gaze sharpened, “Holy Entanglement*Solar Eclipse!”
As David’s will fell, an unstoppable great sun immediately rose amidst the endless waves, spreading vast and unstoppable extreme heat.
“Chirp?” (Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?)
Lolo, upon seeing the familiar prelude to this move, suddenly widened her emerald eyes.
On instinct, her small hand slapped, effortlessly grasping the Wood Spirit’s soul, activated Instant Teleportation, and disappeared from the spot in response to David’s call.
Elsewhere, the Vortex Tiger Whale, locked by the Solar Eclipse, felt the crisis of death looming over it, and no one could understand the despair in its heart at this moment.
Suddenly, a huge ball of fire appeared within the sweeping flames in the sky, with the shadow of a great sun, representing the ancient presence of Heaven and Earth, behind it.
In an instant, two suns, large and small, appeared in the sky above the Wastewater Archipelago.
Beneath the overwhelming power of the great sun, the sea level dropped tens of meters out of nowhere, revealing countless fish, shrimp, and crabs boiled by the scalding water, and the Extreme Wave Whales behind the Vortex Tiger Whale abandoned their king, trying to escape the all-covering light of the great sun.
“Boom!”
Daphne detonated the Solar Eclipse, and the vast sun descended upon the sea from the sky, with flames flying about, as if the end of the world had come, and the azure sea suddenly displayed a huge ring of extremely bright gold light, its core boiling with countless torrents of molten lava, stirring up massive heat waves.
Visible shockwaves burst forth, shattering large rocks, yet they could not move David’s clothes.
“Well done!”
Patting Rainbow, who stood in front of him, releasing Confusion to counter the shockwaves, David summoned the Nine Dragons Purple Gold Armor upon his body, his eyes surreptitiously glancing at the distant seas.
The island was just a speck in size; the intense battle between two Class VI King beasts could not possibly escape the senses of the Abyssal Mystery Dragon, which naturally included David’s intervention in the battle of the Kings.
“`
“`
Therefore, David chose to have Lolo protect him closely, abandoning the plan to keep the residual effects of the battle to a minimum, allowing Daphne to release a new skill that she had never used since her awakening.
Soon, when the scalding fog had dissipated, the Vortex Tiger Whale’s flesh had turned into pitch-black char, its huge body exposing equally blackened bones, its breath gone.
“Whoosh!”
Under the control of Rainbow’s Confusion powers, a massive Magic Core emitting a faint blue light suddenly appeared in front of David.
“Lucky, the Magic Core is only slightly damaged,” David exclaimed in surprise.
Just because Trainers could easily collect Magic Cores from lower level Beasts did not mean the same for High-level Beasts.
After becoming a Class VI King, regardless of the Beast, it could possess intelligence no less than that of humans; it was for this reason that many Class VI Beasts would choose to self-destruct their Magic Cores to take their enemies with them at the brink of death.
Of course, self-destructing a Magic Core required time, and the higher the class of the Core, the more stable it was, meaning more time was needed to detonate it.
Additionally, High-level Beasts also feared death and would never easily abandon life until the final moment, so as long as the Trainer had absolute strength, and the battle ended quickly enough, obtaining High-level Beast Magic Cores wouldn’t be an insurmountable task.
“Let’s go.”
Having pocketed the Magic Core, David rode on Rainbow at great speed towards the sky, leaving behind only the drastically altered island terrain and the chaotic sea.
Five minutes passed, and suddenly a seemingly invisible shadow appeared beneath the sea where the corpse of the Vortex Tiger Whale floated.
As the shadow on the seabed grew larger, a three-clawed Dragon Tail burst out of the sea’s surface, enveloping and devouring the Vortex Tiger Whale.
“Crack, crunch.”
Continuous sounds of splintering bones rang out, a terrifying, indescribable, and hard-to-perceive menace was feeding.
But what was strange was that the Beasts on the island seemed oblivious to the sounds of consumption by the sea, instinctively staying away from that area of the sea.
…
As the howling wind faced him, the bone-deep sensation of imminent danger finally subsided, and David couldn’t help but exhale a turbid breath of relief.
“Phew, good thing we were fast enough.”
“Eh?” (What happened?)
Hearing this, Rainbow and Daphne showed blank expressions on their faces, only Loona looked thoughtful.
“That Abyssal Mystery Dragon is quite cunning, taking me for a surprise attack target,” David said as he withdrew the Nine Dragons Armor covering his body and touched the green leaf atop Lolo’s head.
David didn’t know if the Abyssal Mystery Dragon was wary of Lolo’s presence or the protection of the Nine Dragons Purple Gold Armor, but in the end, it did not show itself.
This also indirectly suggested that the Abyssal Mystery Dragon might not be as formidable as David had imagined.
On the other side, in the Savage Wasteland.
Feeling irritable, Lilith crushed down with a casual press, and a blazing column of fire evaporated the slow-to-escape herd of Beasts in an instant, turning them into dust scattering in the wind, causing Grau to shiver at her side.
Ever since David disappeared, Lilith’s temper had grown more and more volatile, to the point where Grau barely dared to speak out for fear of a brutal beating.
Just then, Lilith’s movements froze, and she suddenly smiled.
“Grau, let’s go back,” she said.
Grau blinked in surprise, a hint of urgency appearing on his face.
What’s going on, is the teacher intending to give up on David?
Grau turned around quickly, only to find Lilith grinning, with the Pure Flames in the palm of her hand shining brilliantly.
