Chapter 476: Chapter 471: The Death Round Table Again?
The attack from Alpha and the others had enraged the sea beast, which opened its mouth wide, ready to shatter the Colored Glaze Pearl. However, Alpha took this opportunity to summon swords from the sky, pouring them into the beast’s mouth.
The Sword of Death mercilessly sliced through the sea beast’s guts. Writhing in pain, the beast was pulled out by the Colored Glaze Pearl, bringing forth some black smoke. The sea beast’s normally black scales gradually turned green.
“Its color faded?”
Bai Qi observed in astonishment. The power of death on the sea beast was intense indeed, but from the current situation, it seemed to be different from the black fog snake?
“Whatever, we should attack now!”
Bai Qi gritted his teeth and immediately sent a command to his Six Pets.
Crack crack!
(Everyone, follow my lead!)
Suddenly, Alpha distanced himself from the sea beast. The Four Poles Sword Formation immediately unfolded, and the four long swords each took their positions.
But this time, not only Alpha, but the other pets also joined in.
The one holding the Sword of Death was Alpha.
The one holding the Sword of the Wind Chaser was Delta.
The one holding the Sword of Retributive Karma was Epsilon.
The one holding the Gravity Sword was Gamma.
Synchronizing perfectly, the four beasts injected their own energy into their respective swords.
The Sword of Death at full output, the Sword of the Wind Chaser merged with the Power of the Void, the Sword of Retributive Karma mixed with gold and red flames, as well as the Gravity Sword turned into green lava.
These four different attributes crazily flowed into the Four Poles Sword Formation but Alpha’s crystal bones were struggling to handle it all.
Seeing this, Husky rushed into the center of the formation, also extending its Etherium Liquid Gold to merge with the Four Poles Sword Formation.
As the most potent spirit power in the team, Husky, while absorbing the Thunder Power released by Jie Ta, also adjusted the energy released by the other pets, stabilizing the new Four Poles Sword Formation.
Finally, as the Sword Formation reached the perfect level of coordination and Beta let out a long howl, four sword-shaped auras of distinct attributes rose to the sky. Gradually, they fused together to form a seven-colored long sword, flying toward the sea beast.
The Seven-colored long sword, infused with the entire power of the Six Pets, struck with a remarkable momentum. It pierced directly through the skull of the sea beast, entering its body, and the sea beast suddenly fell silent.
The Six Pets Fusion Edition – Four Poles Sword Formation had actually killed a legendary sea-beast!
“Something’s wrong!”
Despite the Six Pets’ incredible strength, Bai Qi, their master, felt no joy. Instead, he looked at the sea beast with a furrowed brow.
From the injury pierced by the seven-colored long sword, not a drop of fresh blood flowed out. Instead, strands of black smoke were seen dissipating, voluntarily leaving the sea beast’s body and surging towards the Colored Glaze Pearl.
But this time, the Colored Glaze Pearl, which had been pulling hard, began to resist, trying to shake off the black smoke.
However, the black smoke seemed unwilling to let go of the Colored Glaze Pearl, actively imbibing it, and directly turning it into a black sphere.
On the other side, the sea beast’s body, which had lost the black smoke, slowly began to shrink and gradually turned into a massive whale covered in green armor.
“A Storm Whale? It’s a sea beast?”
Ming Dian was somewhat surprised at this manifestation.
The Storm Whale, a legendary creature can easily create tsunamis and possess formidable strength.
However, no one had ever heard about any correlation between this Storm Whale and the mythical World-ending sea-beast.
“After stripping the power of death, it exposed its true form… Why does this feel familiar?”
Bai Qi looked perturbed by the situation, but his attention was quickly drawn to the changes in the Colored Glaze Pearl.
No, it should be referred to as the Death Sphere now.
The Colored Glaze Pearl was thoroughly filled with the power of death at this point, and like the previous sea beast, it began forming a brand-new body from the smoke.
From a distance, it looked as if an evil octopus sea-beast was gradually taking shape.
“Why is it still coming? Is there no end to this?”
Seeing this, Bai Qi showed a bitter smile. The earlier attack by the Six Pets was indeed powerful but had similarly depleted much of their energy. They were essentially lambs waiting or slaughter now.
“Protect Big Brother! Protect Big Brother!”
At that moment, the Deep Sea Thirteen Protectors suddenly stood in front of Bai Qi, releasing their skills without reservation, trying to disrupt the transformation of the Colored Glaze Pearl.
Seeing their commitment, Bai Qi gases a peculiar sparkle in his eyes. Just as he was about to say something, a worm rushing in front of him interrupted him.
“Boss, I’ve contacted Sir Nicholas!”
“You’ve contacted him?”
Upon hearing the worm’s words, Bai Qi instantly felt relieved and after seeing the Jade Dream opened by the worm, he felt an immense weight lifted off his chest.
Finally, with Bai Qi’s hopeful gaze, a familiar green dragon head appeared in front of him.
“Gurgle~ Bai Qi, how come you are in the water!”
Nicholas appeared to cough a little due to the surrounding sea-beast but immediately released his aura to disperse the sea water.
“Never mind that for now, take care of that thing!”
Bai Qi pointed at the increasingly huge octopus sea-beast overhead, saying.
“This aura… it’s similar to Alpha’s?”
Nicholas looked at the octopus sea-beast and released a strong dragon’s aura. As he opened his mouth, Jade Breath enveloped the octopus sea-beast.
“It really has become stronger…”
Seeing Nicholas, whose aura had greatly changed from before, Bai Qi also quietly breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew all the Six Pets back into the Beast Control Space to recover.
With Nicholas here, there was no need for Alpha and the others. It would be better to recover quickly, it wouldn’t be good to leave any hidden injuries.
After all, the sea creature used the Power of Death. If it was accidentally stained, it would be quite dangerous.
Nicholas’s appearance indeed significantly changed the course of the battle. The octopus sea-beast, which hadn’t fully formed yet, was suppressed by Nicholas and had no other choice but to shrink back into the Colored Glaze Pearl.
Seeing this, brilliant green light suddenly shone from Nicholas’s dragon eyes. The Jade Domain quietly unfolded, and huge forces pressed down on the sphere from all directions, instantly creating several cracks on it.
“Let me show you how powerful this dragon is!”
Nicholas, seeing the situation, was even more eager to suppress the Power of Death at once when suddenly a giant bird appeared and surprisingly swallowed the sphere whole.
“Fool, you dare to contaminate the Power of Death with your domain, are you seeking death?”
Jiuyou Darkbird swallowed the sphere, looking completely satisfied and then disdainfully gazed towards Nicholas.
“Jiuyou Darkbird? Master?”
Upon seeing this, Bai Qi’s eyes lit up, and on seeing the figure standing on it, he instantly felt at ease.
The Master had arrived, so they were completely safe now.
“How did you get here, and what is the situation here?”
Bai Heguang nodded slightly, then began to enquire about the situation from Bai Qi, but before Bai Qi could open his mouth, Old Lady Fan tore through the space and crawled out.
“Where is my godson, Bai Qi? If anything happens to him, I won’t let you off!”
Old Lady Fan grabbed Bai Qi and began to interrogate him. And upon seeing Nicholas at a distance, she immediately shifted her target.
“It came at the right time, Old Lady, I was just thinking of settling accounts with you.”
“I’m saved.”
Bai Qi sighed, then proceeded to explain the general situation to Bai Heguang.
“Death Ice Forest… World-ending Sea-beast… Power of Death…”
Bai Heguang walked over to the front of the Storm Whale, summoned the Blood Scythe Wraith, and with one swing of the scythe, the Storm Whale was directly dismembered.
Inside the massive body of the Storm Whale, it was completely corroded clean, with only a layer of skin and skeletal structure remaining relatively intact.
“As I thought, it was parasitized by the Power of Death.”
Bai Heguang groaned understandingly and then looked at Old Lady Fan, “Old Lady, can you take us to the Death Ice Forest?”
“That’s simple.”
Old Lady Fan nodded, sensed according to Bai Qi’s description, then directly tore open the space and walked in first.
Seeing this, everyone else followed suit and returned to Death Ice Forest once again.
“Oh, you’re here so soon?”
Seeing everyone appear, Wang Chen immediately jumped down from Morning Star, and laughed at Bai Qi, “Bai Qi, you sure know how to stir up trouble, The Deep Sea Alliance isn’t even resolved yet, and you’ve managed to provoke such a monster.”
“Well, I didn’t really want to.”
Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders helplessly. The Deep Sea Alliance’s endeavor had some advantages, but being chased by a Legendary Sea Beast, especially a Power of Death possessing Legendary Sea Beast was a different story.
It was better to keep these experiences to the minimum.
“Enough messing around, let’s get back to the matter at hand.”
Bai Heguang walked into the Death Ice Forest, stared at the black smoke and flames still spewing from the cracks in the ground, and asked, “Jiuyou, what do you think?”
“Unless there’s a surprise, the Power of Death from earlier must’ve seeped out from here. However, it appears to have been specially cultured, it has strong traces of artificial manipulation.”
Jiuyou Darkbird spit out the sphere, on which there were no traces of the Power of Death to be seen. Obviously, it had been absorbed by the Jiuyou Darkbird.
“Artificial traces? I understand now.”
Listening to her, Bai Heguang seemed to understand something, and so did Wang Chen, who was standing nearby.
“The Death Round Table again?”
“Given the method of cultivating and transplanting the Power of Death, it seems likely.”
Bai Heguang nodded his head and looked at the ground once again, saying, “However, there is indeed a part of death below, so it would be better to seal it up as early as possible.”
“Leave that to me.”
Wang Chen nodded. Morning Star, behind him, quietly stood up, releasing a surge of potent Stellar Power to fill the cracks.
“Master, you said earlier that the Death Round Table did this?”
Hearing the conversation between the two, Bai Qi immediately moved closer and asked.
“Hmm.”
Bai Heguang nodded and said, “Although I’m not sure what their goal is, fortunately, you encountered it. Otherwise, if the thing below manages to come out, it could spell disaster for both the marine realm and humans.”
“I see.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly, becoming more wary of the Death Round Table’s power.
First was the Death Knight, then came the World-ending Sea-beast.
The Power of Death was used in many different ways by these people, something that no newly established nefarious cult could do.
“Master, I discovered something just now, I don’t know if it’s of any use.”
