At that mont, Ethan had no ti to deal with the matters of the Heavenly Path Psychic Sanctuary.
His brow furrowed as he received an alarming notification.
Donna, who was traveling with Exploding Sky Serpent over the North Sea, was in grave danger!
[Special Event - Siege of the North Sea Crab Demons]
[Your descendant, Donna, is on the verge of a breakthrough in her physical cultivation. She seeks to gather the five extre elents of heaven and earth to push her Developing Skill realm physique to the peak of Competent Force.
She already possesses the Rootless Pure Land gifted by the Primordial Blood Tree, a branch of the Primordial Blood Tree itself, and the Geng tal essence she spent two years seeking.]
[Now, in the North Sea demon realm, she has caught wind of 'Ten Thousand Year Heavy Water.' However, she is trapped on an isolated island, surrounded by crab demons. Only a protective formation holds them at bay, leaving her with no escape.]
"..."
Ethan's scalp tingled as he saw the image of Donna and Exploding Sky Serpent's location.
Donna had stumbled into a nest of crabs!
He instantly appeared on the island, enveloped in darkness.
A protective formation shimred, barely containing a tide of crabs...
Ethan rose into the air for a clearer view.
The sea was swarming with crabs.
Above, four figures in blue robes – three n and a woman – glared down at the island with grim expressions.
They were transford sea demons, at the Competent Force stage!
The formation on the island was powered by Charlie Crackle's natural energies.
The crab demons were hesitant to confront Charlie Crackle directly, hoping to exhaust his power over ti.
Otherwise, they would have already stord the formation.
"She's provoked an entire clan of crab demons? They say the sea demons are terrifying, and it seems to be true."
Ethan's scalp tingled.
The sheer number of enemies was staggering!
He glanced at his dwindling family will, down to 13 points.
He wasn't sure if he could save Donna from this overwhelming onslaught...
The sea was a churning mass of crab demons, the sky and sea locked down by demonic formations!
"I can't do this alone. I need help."
Ethan's mind raced.
Everyone he could think of was too far away.
Daniel's unique situation made him unavailable.
Julian was in the imperial capital, closer, but he was under constant surveillance.
Suddenly, Ethan rembered the small fishing village...
His gaze shifted.
In the village, a handso youth with two sickles strapped to his back arrived.
He walked into the fishing village, wrinkled his nose at the drunkard begging outside a small tavern, and knocked on the tavern door, despite it being broad daylight.

"Anyone ho? I'm here to et my family."
...
The sea was a canvas of deep blue, devoid of its usual sparkle, as if encased in heavy armor.
Giant blue crabs blanketed the surface!
So, as large as small hills, floated in the air, their bubbles forming an impenetrable barrier.
Four transford crab demons, clad in blue robes, stood in the sky.
They were the elders of the sea crab clan, their gazes fixed on the lone island amidst the crab horde.
Within the island's protective formation, a misty Azure Dragon phantom soared, its massive eyes scanning for threats.
However, it wasn't the Azure Dragon, with its bloodline suppression, that truly alard the crab clan.
It was...
The madman on the island!
Initially appearing as a young girl, she now fought as a towering giant.
Her armor, resembling a vest, revealed the bulging muscles of her arms.
Only her twin pigtails hinted at her forr appearance.
Behind her, two half-ford lotus platforms, one black and one white, floated like wings.
When joined, they ford a perfect circle, resembling the platforms used by Buddhist monks for ditation.
But these platforms were connected to the madman's shoulder blades by countless threads, fleshy tentacles writhing from their surface.
The sight was enough to strike fear into the hearts of even the bravest.
Donna, her eyes bloodshot, glared at the endless crab demons.
The formation opened a small gap, and she punched any crab that dared to enter, obliterating them instantly.
The tentacles from the fleshy lotus platforms behind her pierced the exploding corpses, drawing in their essence to replenish her own psychic powers, if only slightly.
She roared, her jaw unhinging at an unnatural angle, drool dripping from her lips.
...
Ethan, having made his arrangents, arrived to witness Donna's transformation.
Even he was taken aback by her monstrous appearance, especially the eerie black and white lotus platforms.
[Peak Seventh Grade Psychic Artifact: Flesh and Blood Lotus Platforms]
[Forged from the flesh and blood of Buddhist and demonic cultivators, it possesses both holy and demonic power. Imbued with the sacrificial power of the twin brothers, Charles and Christopher, it has gained sentience. It can devour the life force and psychic powers of others to heal itself and grow stronger.]
[The Flesh and Blood Lotus Platforms protect the wearer from external evils and the influence of righteous laws. When rged with the body, they amplify the wearer's strength and psychic powers.]
With the Flesh and Blood Lotus Platforms and the power she had cultivated alongside Chuck, Donna was a force to be reckoned with.
Even Lucas, back in his Developing Skill stage, would be no match for her now!
But her power ca at a price.
The words "sacrificial power of the twin brothers, Charles and Christopher" flashed ominously in Ethan's mind.
"Donna seems to be losing herself..."
Ethan watched her fight with growing concern.
Since her escape, Donna's desire for power had beco all-consuming.
During her five years on the run, she and Exploding Sky Serpent had fought their way through countless dangers, and she had seized every opportunity to beco stronger.
The rational girl who used to chatter endlessly with Chuck was gone, replaced by a being driven solely by the pursuit of power.
Taking a deep breath, Ethan turned his attention to Exploding Sky Serpent.
He found the serpent's icon on his ntal interface and issued a command.
High above, Charlie Crackle's eyes flickered.
"Master... is that your command?"
He erged from the protective formation, his translucent form shimring in the air.
The re presence of his Azure Dragon bloodline sent the crab demons into a frenzy.
Even the four transford crab demons in the sky tensed.
The lead crab demon roared at the strange, misty Azure Dragon, "Azure Dragon! Hand over the Ten Thousand Year Heavy Water, and we might spare your lives!"
"Hmph!"
Emboldened by his master's command and his own Azure Dragon heritage, Charlie Crackle spoke, his voice echoing with power, "We have claid the Ten Thousand Year Heavy Water. I'll give you 30 minutes to retreat. If you force our hand, your crab clan will pay the price!"
"You..."
The four crab demons were enraged.
Where did this strange Mist Serpent get its confidence?
The female crab demon, a valiant figure in light armor, wielding a double-pronged halberd, chuckled.
"Such arrogance, Azure Dragon! We have waited a century for the Heavy Water to mature. You think you can just take it from us? Let's see what you're truly made of!"
The tension was palpable.
However, the Azure Dragon stood at the pinnacle of the demon realm's food chain.
The bloodline suppression was too much for the crab demons to ignore.
They hesitated, unwilling to risk a direct confrontation.
