Ye Liuyun had just finished off the four black sharks with the won when the blue whale groaned again.
"The whale says there are more!" Longnv relayed to him instantly.
He swept his golden pupils across the horizon—and flinched. A forest of black fins sliced the surface; easily a hundred sharks.
He studied them: so at Unity Six, a few at Overlord. Instead of stowing the won, he let them pick worthy sparring partners.
He released the remaining seventeen ordinary Unity-Six warriors to his spatial world to handle Unity-Five sharks, decided that still wasn't enough, and freed his demon beasts and Tang Xinyao's squad as well.
Longnv shot forward, eager to join.
The shark pack fanned out, encircling them.
"Another big fight. Pick opponents your own size—don't reach above a tier just because they're big."
After the warning, Ye Liuyun led the charge.
Booms rolled across the sea, yuan qi streaking everywhere. His Unity-Six outnumbered the sharks and held the edge; the sharks' strongest peeled off to fight them, leaving everyone else an easier ti.
Each kill was whisked straight into a spatial world to keep the blood-scent down, yet the water still reddened.
They were having a blast—every blade and spell a workout. The wounded were pulled inside for healing; two Unity-Six fell—acceptable losses.
When the last shark vanished, the whale trumpeted a delighted cascade even Ye Liuyun could read as joy. Then a short, sharp note: more ahead.
"Is this thing using us to settle old scores?" he asked Longnv, suddenly suspicious.
She laughed. "Could be. You told it to take us to danger—for it, this might be the worst spot."
Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes; they'd beco the whale's hired muscle. The at and cores they harvested wouldn't cover their spent pills and qi—a losing deal. But turn back now and the whale might simply steer them against another herd.
"Keep going. Keep an eye out for anything worth taking."
He left everyone outside, ready for round two.
The blood-sll drew no other beasts; the neighborhood knew whose turf this was.
Soon his golden eyes caught the next wave—five or six hundred fins. Leading them: Unity-Eight sharks, with Overlords and Divinities bringing up the rear.
"That overgrown fish has killed us—this is the whole clan!"
He freed all twenty-two of his top warriors plus the remaining aliens to tackle the powerhouses, ordered First Clone to release the ancient demon guards and demon beasts.
"Second Clone, take the won to the tail-end weaklings. Beasts and Tang Xinyao with . First Clone watches the field—if we're still short, drop more ancient demons."
Even the three guards he'd left to protect the whale were pulled in; the vindictive leviathan could fend for itself.
Not stupid, the whale accelerated, carving wide circles behind them so no shark could blind-side it.
"KILL!"
When the wall of fins closed, Ye Liuyun gave the word, and his strongest fighters struck first.The instant the Eight-Layer Return-to-One powerhouses and the black sharks clashed, a sky-high wall of water erupted at the front line. The shock of true-essence blasts rippled all the way down to the abyss.
Then ca rolling thunder—boom after boom. Ye Liuyun and the rest, along with the trailing black-shark swarm, dared not charge straight in; they peeled left and right, picking opponents, and battle flared along the flanks.
In monts the fight stretched a thousand li. Shockwaves swept outward in endless rings; every inch of sea heaved. Nearby sea-beasts had already fled—stay close and you'd be shredded.
A few sharks slipped through to attack the blue whale, but it bolted while lashing its tail and still managed to swat several attackers dead.
The sharks' strongest were pinned by the human experts. The highest Ye Liuyun faced was Return-to-One Five—tough, but manageable. The problem was numbers: kill, kill, kill, his mystic essence draining fast.
Everyone else was the sa. He and his demon beasts had it slightly easier; the brunt fell on the ancient demon guards and the larger demon horde. Their huge bodies and rolling demonic aura marked them as the bigger threat.
So the demons took heavy losses. Yet their size also ant one slap could pulp a shark. Before the fight was half over, Ye Liuyun noticed nearly half the demons were gone.
Still, the human side held the edge. Smarter, more thods, better teamwork than the sharks.
Whenever a human freed a hand, they jumped to aid the demons or guards, and the demons' casualties slowed. What Ye Liuyun hadn't expected was Tyrannosaurus falling in the lee.
His true essence ran dry first; the rest of his skills weren't special enough. Several sharks blasted him apart at once.
The alien evil aura drew the sharks' fiercest focus—exterminated first. First Avatar skipped the fight, using spatial power to whisk every alien core into his pocket world before sea-beasts could swallow and be tainted by them.
Not that any beast would touch them; they sensed the poison at once.
"Fine—saves the cleanup," Ye Liuyun thought, relieved the aliens had at least served so purpose.
