Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 85 The Crisis of the Sea God Legion, Long Yeyue Has Run Away Again!

As the sun sets and the sky glows fiery red, the sea takes on a hazy orange-red hue, its flowing waters shimmering in the sunlight.

A sea breeze blew in from the depths of the ocean, dispelling the lingering heat of the afternoon sun. Along the long coastline, many tourists lingered.

"Quack quack!"

A few seagulls flew by, dropping feces bombs as if mocking them, which drew curses from some humans.

As one of the three major naval fleets of the Sun Moon Federation, Tianhai City has more than twenty ultra-high-altitude satellite soul guides operating at all times in the sky above it.

The satellite soul tool named "Sky Eye" belongs to one of the top soul tool technologies currently mastered by mankind. Its metal shell is engraved with obscure and difficult-to-understand core magic arrays, and it has a built-in holographic scanning array, making it look like a god overlooking the sea.

Data and information about the ocean are transmitted back to the Sky and Sea Command Center in real time.

Whenever something happens at sea, it can be detected in time, and the authorities can handle it promptly.

"Want to grab a drink after our shift ends?"

Inside the command center, Cai Kun, with his hands behind his head and leaning back in his chair, smiled and asked his colleague and friend beside him.

"Never mind, I have to go on a blind date later," another observer, Lin Mo, declined.

Cai Kun looked surprised: "You're only twenty-four, what kind of blind date are you going on?"

"Twenty-four is not young anymore." Lin Mo looked at him. "Six years ago I was eighteen, and six years later I'm thirty. Eighteen is getting further and further away, but thirty is getting closer and closer."

Cai Kun was taken aback. Thinking back, he realized he was twenty-eight years old, almost thirty.

Damn it, these darn times, no wonder I've started losing hair lately.

Drop drop!
Suddenly, the alarm went off urgently, abruptly interrupting their conversation.

Their excellent work ability prevented them from making mistakes like novices, and their attention quickly returned to the screen.

Within the light screen, a peculiar line was rapidly pulsating, growing increasingly crimson, indicating that it had reached a dangerous level. Lin Mo's expression turned grave as he slid his finger across the control panel, bringing up more detailed data: "Energy fluctuation index surges, coordinates... Zoom in on the satellite image."

“I’m doing it.” Cai Kun’s hands moved nimbly as he operated the instrument.

Zooming in on the satellite image revealed a section of the sea surface with exceptional clarity on the screen.

Both of them gasped for breath.

The ocean, dyed red by the setting sun, was suddenly filled with countless enormous black shadows churning beneath the waves that should have been drifting with the tide.

"Warning." Just then, a cold, emotionless female electronic voice sounded: "A large number of soul energy bodies have been detected gathering. Tracking the number..."

Cai Kun and Lin Mo stared at the constantly jumping and appearing dots on the screen, their throats dry and they subconsciously swallowed.

Cai Kun's voice trembled: "System, are you sure it's not a malfunction of the holographic scanning array?"

"The holographic scanning array is operating normally," the emotionless electronic female voice replied. "Warning: The soul energy body contains two ferocious sea soul beasts. Warning..."

Upon hearing the words "beast-level," Cai Kun and Lin Mo's pupils suddenly contracted.

It's a big deal!
Snapped!
Without any hesitation, the two of them simultaneously pressed the alarm button on the side of the table.

Urgent alarms blared throughout the command center.

On the ceilings of each department, light screens appeared in succession, displaying images of the sea area where the sea spirit beasts gathered.

The staff, who had been prepared to change shifts and chat idly, suddenly changed their expressions when they saw the densely packed figures of soul beasts beneath the sea.

Hurried footsteps approached, the control room door was pushed open, and a strong, middle-aged man walked in.

He was dressed in military uniform, with a general's star on his shoulder, clearly a serving major general.

"Commander-in-Chief," Cai Kun and Lin Mo greeted respectfully.

The middle-aged man, referred to as the commander-in-chief, said in a deep voice: "Immediately confirm the distance of this group of sea spirit beasts from the coast, as well as their movements."

"Yes."

The two accepted the order and acted swiftly.

Chen Guiliang stood behind the two, his tiger-like eyes fixed on the movements of the sea spirit beasts on the screen. As he watched the more than one hundred different types of spirit beasts appearing in the seawater under the blue light level of clarity, his face stiffened slightly.

Along the coastline of Tianhai City, more than a thousand tourists gathered, their playful noises rising and falling.

Oh oh oh!
The piercing sirens blared throughout the city, shattering the playful laughter.

Countless people looked up in confusion toward the direction from which the alarm sounded. Soon, officials arrived at the shore and began to disperse the civilians who were still playing on the beach in an orderly manner.

At the East China Sea Fleet Command, a screen of light appeared before the eyes of the high-ranking officers.

Looking at the densely packed, countless number of soul beasts, every soldier felt a sense of dread.

Land-based spirit beasts have become virtually extinct, and modern people have never seen such a massive formation.

Look at these spirit beasts: Phantom Barracuda, Abyss Turtle, Vortex Squid, Starry Mother-of-Pearl... almost all of them are renowned spirit beast species on the high seas. Those sea spirit beasts that live in the nearshore waters and whose groups are relatively weak don't even qualify to appear in the beast tide army.

Zhu Ming, commander of the East Sea Legion and a federal general, sat in the head seat and said with a solemn expression, "I have confirmed with the rear command center that the number of sea spirit beasts gathered this time exceeds 300,000."

The meeting room fell completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Zhu Ming said in a deep voice, "This army of sea spirit beasts contains at least five hundred different species. Among them are some hostile spirit beast clans. The fact that they can gather together must be the work of some ferocious beast. On my command, the entire army is on alert. If any sea spirit beasts enter the waters within a sixty-kilometer radius, launch an attack immediately!"

"As ordered." Everyone said in unison.

Meanwhile, in Beihai City, at the headquarters of the Northern Navy Corps, Corps Commander Shen Yue was also rapidly making military deployments.

Tianhai City faced 300,000 sea spirit beasts, but their side was no less formidable.

In other words, the two naval fleets stationed there would face a combined force of 600,000 sea spirit beasts, which is an unprecedented beast tide.

If it were simply a matter of sheer numbers, it wouldn't be so bad. After all, with today's technology, a few level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells could wipe out a large number, and other incredibly powerful soul-guided devices could also bring astonishing returns. But the fact that at least four ferocious-beast-level sea soul beasts appeared in the horde is quite surprising.

The beast tide army, consisting of four ferocious beast-level creatures, dozens of 100,000-year-old sea spirit beasts, and hundreds of thousands of 100-year, 1000-year, and 10,000-year-old sea spirit beasts, would make even ordinary Limit Douluo think twice about whether they could survive.

The sudden outbreak of such a massive beast tide on the East Coast immediately shocked the Federation headquarters. However, just as the Federation Speaker ordered the Central Army and the Northern Army to rush to the East Coast for assistance, news from another side caught the Federation's top leadership off guard.

That is the Star Dou Great Forest, which is now in ruins. Led by the Beast God Di Tian, ​​a group of ferocious beasts and the remaining 100,000-year-old soul beasts under his command have collectively revolted.

Star Dou Fortress, a forbidden zone that has existed for three thousand years and almost completely isolated the Star Dou Great Forest from the world, suffered a slap from Di Tian.

The shield, which was hailed by countless researchers as something that would take even the Beast God Di Tian several hours to break through, was instantly shattered, leaving a palm-sized crack in the shield.

For the first time, the thousands of staff stationed at Star Fortress witnessed destructive power as strong as a god.

Di Tian, ​​the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, proclaimed his power.

He remains the most terrifying and powerful being in the world.

The uprising of land-based spirit beasts is clearly more alarming than the beast tides at sea.

Yu Guanzhi, the commander of the Central Legion, deputy minister of the Federal Military Department, and the Divine Brush Douluo, had no choice but to change his itinerary and head to the Star Dou Great Forest to cooperate with the powerful figures of the Spirit Pagoda in confronting Di Tian's riot.

Therefore, the legions supporting the east coast became the Northern Legion, the Sea God Legion, and some of the War Gods of the Temple of War.

As the last rays of sunlight faded on the horizon, the deep blue sky created a sense of oppression.

The seawater was bone-chillingly cold and its bottom unseen. All around, colossal, terrifying creatures gathered.

The Abyss Giant Squid is covered in obsidian-like keratin, with eight tentacles hanging from its head, reaching an astonishing length of 100 meters. The Phantom Venom Jellyfish King is entirely deep blue, as if a nebula has been stuffed into its abdomen; from a distance, it appears as beautiful as a dream.

The enormous head of the Netherworld Lantern Beast was topped with a dark green lantern, emitting a deep, eerie green light. The Demon Orca King's skin was as if forged from metal, its soul power faintly leaking out, and the seawater it came into contact with visibly crystallized.

More than fifteen ferocious sea spirit beasts, including the Molten Hydra and the Sea Princess, gathered together.

However, these sea spirit beast overlords, each dominating their own sea area, showed no arrogance at this moment. Facing a human girl with stunning beauty, black hair, and silver eyes, they were extremely respectful.

A sea breeze blew, and Gu Yue's long, black hair, as smooth as silk, swayed gently. Her fair and radiant skin seemed to glow with moonlight in the dim light.

Those silver eyes emitted a restrained light, as if various elements were churning within them, containing an aura of dominance that could overwhelm all others.

"Everyone's here," Gu Yue said softly. "The target has left the naval port and is heading towards Tianhai City. Remember the fusion soul skill I taught you."

"We obey your command," the ferocious beasts responded in unison. Gu Yue's delicate body radiated a pure light, and Bi Ji smiled slightly at her colleagues. With a wave of her jade hand, the two disappeared into the sea.

On the sea route where the human fleet was waiting to walk into their trap, fifteen ferocious sea spirit beasts remained, the most powerful of whom was the overlord of the far north ice sea, a sea princess who was 600,000 years old.

"I didn't expect that you, Princess Sea, would also be summoned by that lord." The voice of the Molten Hydra was extremely deep, with a hint of laughter in its tone.

The sea princess, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish, calmly glanced at him. "The reason we are gathered here is self-evident. We will discuss how to deal with that madman after we have completed the master's request."

Upon hearing this, the other fourteen ferocious beasts fell silent.

The Sea Princess said in a deep voice, "Let's begin preparations."

the other side.

Inside the Angel City naval port, massive steel warships were slowly sailing away, while several figures gathered on the shore.

The leader had long, golden hair that was combed and gleamed. He was tall and slender, and his robes were loose, exuding a faint aura of light.

"Master, aren't we going to help?"

Beside the old man, a middle-aged man asked in a low voice.

Le Zheng'en shook his head: "Chen Xinjie leading most of the Sea God Legion is enough, not to mention that Shrek Academy's Light and Dark Douluo are also with them."

The middle-aged man nodded and said in a deep voice, "The fact that the East Sea and North Sea legions are both facing a beast tide at the same time suggests that things are not simple."

Le Zheng'en did not respond, his deep golden eyes watching the fleet depart.

After a long pause, he solemnly said, "Pass down the order: place a state of martial law in the sea area within a hundred kilometers of Angel City."

"As ordered."

...

"Sigh." On the Poseidon warship, Chen Xinjie sighed inwardly. Just now, he had a fight with his only son.

As for why...

Footsteps approached, and a slightly hunched figure appeared in the bright captain's cabin. It was none other than Long Yeyue, the Light and Dark Douluo, who had left after arguing with Yun Ming half a year ago and came to the Sea God Legion to catch up with his old lover and seek help.

"How is your injury healing?" Long Yeyue was obviously unaware that her old lover had just had a fight with his son. She walked over and asked in a tone that was neither too close nor too distant.

"Not bad, faster than I expected." Chen Xinjie turned around, a smile on his face. His resolute face was clearly pale.

After Long Yeyue attacked the Spirit Tower, and was then slapped twice by Qian Gu Die Ting and sealed, Chen Xinjie was just waiting to be tricked.

As expected, when Long Yeyue arrived at the Sea God Legion and met Chen Xinjie, and expressed her desire for help, Chen Xinjie disregarded the opposition from his family and the legion's higher-ups and resolutely removed the Unyielding Mark from Long Yeyue.

But this also resulted in a furious blow from the ancient Dieting hidden in the mark.

That one blow severely injured Chen Xinjie, and it took him half a year to barely recover to 70% of his peak condition.

Long Yeyue originally intended to return after using her old lover, but since he was injured because of her, she had to stay and keep him company.

"That's good." Long Yeyue said calmly, "I'll help you deal with the beast tide this time, and I should return to the academy after that." Although the mark on her body was gone, her cultivation level did not return to its peak all at once. It needed to recover slowly. After half a year, she had barely recovered to level ninety-seven, and she still needed the help of the Golden Ancient Tree.

Chen Xinjie was taken aback, and quickly said, "Can't you stay a few more days?"

Long Yeyue said indifferently, "Your son and your Sea God family don't like me."

Chen Xinjie remained silent, because of this, he had argued with his son Chen Zeyu.

After a long pause, Chen Xinjie seemed to have figured something out and resolutely said, "Yue'er, I'll just ask you one question: if I go to Shrek Academy with you, would you be willing to spend the last twenty or thirty years of your life with me?"

Long Yeyue was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Chen Xinjie said in a deep voice, "We are already two hundred years old. How much longer can we live? Instead of clinging to our stubbornness, we should let go of everything and make up for the regrets of our youth."

Seeing his longtime lover silent, Chen Xinjie saw an opportunity and quickly tried to add something.

hum~
Suddenly, an unusual fluctuation spread throughout the world.

Before Long Yeyue could say anything, Chen Xinjie's expression changed drastically. Without the slightest hesitation, he tore open space with his large hand and left the warship.

When he reappeared, he was on a vast, boundless sea.

The bright moonlight cast a cool and beautiful glow on the sea, and more than a dozen warships sped along, afraid of being late.

"who!"

Chen Xinjie's shout echoed far and wide.

The voice, mixed with the spiritual power of a half-step Divine Origin Realm cultivator, immediately alarmed the Sea God Legion fleet, and the crew members decisively activated their soul power shields.

"I never imagined that after Huo Yuhao, there would be a human whose mental power could reach this level."

The sound of reminiscence rang out, and the sky seemed to ripple like water. An eerie silver glow appeared, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an enormous magic array.

At the edge of the magic circle, fifteen ferocious beasts stood out prominently.

The exposure of their location was something these ferocious beasts had never anticipated. In order to fulfill their master's instructions, they frantically poured their soul power into the magic array, keeping their promise. The next moment, a scene appeared that shocked Chen Xinjie and the thousands of members of the Sea God Fleet.

Above the sky, the magic array transformed into chaotic light, as if the seven elemental laws of fire, water, darkness, light, space, wind, and earth were churning and merging. Then, like a cascading galaxy, the strange light illuminated an area of ​​hundreds of miles around.

Chen Xinjie's pupils contracted, and with a thought, a set of magnificent four-character battle armor radiating deep blue flames quickly covered his body, and a figure holding a trident suddenly appeared behind him.

"Poseidon?"

A startled voice came from somewhere, and the power guiding the magic array immediately loosened.

The chaotic light had already landed above the fleet. Chen Xinjie's eyes shone brightly. He flipped his hands over the sky, using the power of the sea within a hundred miles to create a sky-supporting light curtain. Upon closer inspection, an astonishing amount of viscous blue-gold liquid was found within the light curtain, with the runes of the trident embedded in it, making each drop as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Chaotic energy crashed down, causing the heavens and earth to shake violently. Space shattered like a mirror, revealing countless colorful dimensional rifts.

The sea and the sky seemed to be divided into countless worlds, and it was obvious that the sea was boiling.

Chen Xinjie bent his arms, his face flushed red, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Having suffered a furious blow from Qian Gu Die Ting, Chen Xin Jie, who was not at his peak combat strength, was clearly lacking in power.

On the deep blue four-character battle armor, the ancient runes have become dull and lifeless, and fine cracks have clearly appeared in various places.

"Hold on!"

The Vast Ocean Universe Battle Armor was activated to its limit, and a dazzling blue-gold light appeared. The sea was then controlled by the Sea God Martial Soul, and endless blue-gold streams of light gathered to help Chen Xinjie desperately resist the impact.

Shhhhhh.

One after another, powerful three-word battle armor masters leaped out of the warship, each activating their soul power to help Chen Xinjie relieve some of the pressure.

However, the power of the chaotic light exceeded the expectations of the powerful members of the Sea God Legion. Three seconds later, a crisp cracking sound rang out.

The blue-gold light curtain shattered with a roar, turning into billions of dazzling points of light that fell into the sea, much like a meteor shower.

Despair filled the eyes of the Poseidon Fleet's combat personnel. Chen Xinjie turned his gaze to the Poseidon.

As long as Long Yeyue steps forward and assists him, they can withstand the remaining chaotic light.

However, the next second, Chen Xinjie was stunned.

A figure tore through space and escaped the area bombarded by the chaotic light.

Rumble!
Space seemed to distort, and all light became murky. Under Chen Xinjie's incomprehensible gaze, the Poseidon Legion's warships gradually began to dissolve.

It started with a soul power shield, and then it became the hull of a warship.

"Why!"

Chen Xinjie muttered to himself, as if he had suddenly lost all his vitality.

Beyond the light, having witnessed the human fleet being swallowed by it, the Sea Princess and the other ferocious beasts left the area without hesitation.

But every single one of the ferocious beasts was in an extremely bad mood.
