Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 865 - 859: Subjugating the Upper Divine Spirit
Chapter 865 -859: Subjugating the Upper Divine Spirit
Sea King Arthur originated from a medium world, where he was the ruler of the sea area of that world. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be called the Sea King!
After all, his strength as a late stage Upper Divine Spirit could only enable him to dominate in medium or small worlds; if he were in a high rank world, it wouldn’t be his turn as an Upper Divine Spirit to claim kingship!
Precisely because he’d once been the sovereign of a sea area, after wandering into this gathering place in the Abandoned Land, he did not accept the invitations of other strong beings and chose not to join under their banners.
The former sea ruler harbors intense pride, unwilling to play second fiddle to anyone.
So Arthur wielded his title of Sea King, subduing half of the sea creatures in the gathering place to serve him!
Although the lack of a sea here makes it difficult for him and his sea clan to fully utilize their war capabilities, rendering their strongest ability, Water Manipulation, almost useless!
Nevertheless, by gathering a large number of sea creatures, he relied on sheer numbers to prevent them from being primarily targeted for hunting by other beings as they were before.
On land, sea creatures are inherently at a disadvantage, exacerbated by their large physiques which make them easy targets for others looking to satiate hunger by hunting larger prey.
Although the Sea King couldn’t fully change the disadvantaged status of sea creatures in the gathering place, their consolidation over the years has reduced bullying against them.
With fewer sea creatures dying, their numbers gradually increase, and their forces slowly grow stronger.
With the rise and fall of fortunes, even though sea creatures’ status here remains relatively low, it has improved considerably compared to before.
As a result, the ambitions buried deep in the Sea King’s heart have resurfaced once more.
He wanted to become one of the great forces in this gathering place, so when he heard that his shop was looted, his first reaction was not only to reclaim the shop but also to kill to make a stand!
However, years of careful caution when his power was weak made him habitually send multiple underlings to probe.
Although none of his sent subordinates returned, they did discover that the gathering place had no power backing Qin Feng — just a lone powerful individual — and thus he had no more qualms, summoning his sea patch to march in a grand procession.
He deliberately made such a fuss to attract the attention of other forces so that they would be more cautious in provoking them in the future when seeing his current strength.
Only when he arrived at the storefront, he nearly thought he had found the wrong place!
For the shop’s appearance had significantly changed, no longer the shabby undersea cave-like structure, but now a quaint small building.
This was Qin Feng’s remodeling over time.
He was not accustomed to living in the lair Shark Monster originally made.
Of course, there were entities in the gathering place selling various building materials, but he certainly didn’t need those; casually taking a bit of material from the Demon Refining Pot was enough to redecorate this shop.
This was just the exterior; inside it, he had refined into a space magical treasure and arranged layer upon layer of prohibition arrays.
Though it doesn’t resemble the fortification constructed by that Mechanical Divine Master, which looked intimidating enough to prevent provocation, Qin Feng’s shop appeared ordinary yet had defense capabilities not weaker than that fortification!
He even considered the matter of the Abandoned Land devouring spiritual mechanism.
He dispatched several subordinate Demon Gods to maintain the prohibitions in the space magical treasure in turns, enough to ensure the shop operated properly for decades. As for beyond that time, he hadn’t considered it.
Because he never planned to stay here for too long!
Decades were sufficient to understand the situation here thoroughly and also collect numerous valuable resources for himself!
This day, Qin Feng was pondering about what to place on the counter to attract other strong individuals to exchange treasures when suddenly he felt a stirring in his spirit.
In a rush of heart blood, he sensed something was going to happen, and after a moment of calculation, immediately deduced that the Sea King would come for revenge, thus summoned Divine Turtle and Hellhound to guard the entrance!
He only predicted the Sea King would come, originally thinking that, with the combined strength of Divine Turtle and Hellhound, they could persist a while even if not match, allowing him to gauge the Sea King’s abilities, but unexpectedly, the Sea King brought all his strong subordinates.
However, he wasn’t overly concerned.
Because given the current strength of Divine Turtle and Hellhound, they could retreat calmly even when outmatched.
After a hundred years of cultivation, these two not only absorbed various opportunities obtained years earlier, advancing to the Heavenly Immortal realm, but also took a big step forward in it, becoming much more powerful than before.
In fact, it’s not just them, even Swallowing Sky Toad, Undying Qingluan, and other Spiritual Beasts have all advanced to Heavenly Immortal.
Even the White Dragon, after gaining loads of light-type treasures, has been diligently practicing, vowing to catch up with former companions, and now has advanced to Middle Rank Light Dragon God, presently contemplating when to devour and refine the energy crystal core of the Ten-Winged Angel, hoping to step further in the future!
The Spiritual Beasts under Qin Feng have obtained so many treasures and opportunities in previous years; it’s just that due to rapid progression, they often couldn’t fully digest those opportunities before advancing.
Now having arrived at the Abandoned Land, possessing ample time to refine their foundations, taking a hundred years to ascend to Heavenly Immortal may seem slower than before, yet this speed, if made known, would still stir the envy and jealousy of countless Demon Beasts!
Sea King Arthur, with sturdy stature and dignified appearance, exposed his muscular upper body and fine blue scale armor, holding a deep blue trident that made him appear even more imposing.
Arthur glanced with surprise at the quaint small building in front, then scanned the nearby area to ensure he hadn’t found the wrong place, before fiercely stabbing his trident into the ground with a loud thud, shaking several nearby shops thrice.
“Sea King’s business, unrelated parties should leave!”
Behind him, several fierce sea creatures immediately stepped out, trying to expel the Divine Turtle and Hellhound.
Although these two appeared imposing with a presence equivalent to Middle Rank God, the sheer number of sea creatures made them unafraid!
While most of these sea creatures were Demigod Realm extraordinary beings recruited from outer regions, the remaining ones were all strong entities in the divine realm, not just Middle Rank Gods, even Upper Divine Spirits were present; certainly, they weren’t afraid of these two.
They mistook Divine Turtle and Hellhound as strong beings shopping at the store and attempted eviction, only for Divine Turtle to laugh sinisterly and slap away the pusher, whose chest cavity collapsed, flying back into the sea creature ranks, knocking over dozens of sea creatures before halting the chaos.
When others checked on the wounded sea creature, they found not only were its chest fins broken, but its heart, liver, and swim bladder were shattered. If he hadn’t ascended to a god, with remarkably strong life force, this blow might have claimed his life!
The Divine Turtle, although appearing unimpressive in human form, actually had a mountain-like massive body with boundless divine power; even if it stood there allowing itself to be pushed, it wouldn’t necessarily be moved, let alone withstand its mighty slap!
Meanwhile, the one attempting to expel Hellhound was even more unfortunate; it was seized by three dog heads, ripped into pieces, and devoured by the ferocious big dog, not even giving a chance for rescue!
“Bold!”
Upon witnessing this, the Sea King flew into a rage, emanating overwhelming divine power like a vast ocean.
Hellhound didn’t care; it barked and attempted to engage in combat, only to be dragged back into the shop by Divine Turtle holding onto its tail.
This old turtle, cunning in nature, upon discovering the opponent’s formidable strength and numerous warriors, wouldn’t dare an outright confrontation.
Sea King Arthur came originally to assert dominance, but before showcasing much of his might, his two capable subordinates were heavily injured, filling him with wrath. He swung his trident, “Charge in, catch that turtle and hellhound, I will personally sever their dog heads!”
“Yes!”
Immediately, several Sea Clan experts received the order and charged into the shop wielding various strange weapons.
But once they entered, they quickly disappeared without a trace, not a sound coming out.
This made the Sea King’s expression somewhat grim.
The ones who had just gone in were all his subordinates, all possessing the realm of Middle Rank Gods. Even if they couldn’t quickly capture those two, there should have been some noise!
He turned to look at the two massive Sea Clan members beside him, the only two Upper Divine Spirits under his command, powerful members of the Deep Sea Horror Whale tribe. He had put in great effort to subdue these two whales!
Seeing the Sea King’s gaze, the two Upper Divine Spirits nodded in understanding, waved their hands, and stepped forward with twenty or thirty other experts, striding into the entrance ahead!
The Sea King showed a somewhat satisfied expression.
Though it had taken considerable effort and promises of many benefits to subdue these two Upper Divine Spirits, all of it was worth it. Otherwise, if he had to personally step forward for everything, it would be a loss of face.
He waited confidently outside, envisioning his Sea Clan deities dragging out that turtle and Hellhound, and capturing the Humans who had robbed the Shark Monster’s shop under his command.
He was eager to kill to establish his might, to announce that from now on, the Sea Clan would be under his protection, and no other beings would be allowed to kill at will!
But as time passed, neither did his subordinates bring out the enemies, nor did any sound come out except for some initial energy fluctuations, then silence, just like before!
Sea King Arthur’s expression changed, becoming utterly solemn!
He had come to establish his dominance, but now, not only could he not do that, he might even become the stepping stone for someone else’s power move!
He could even hear the whispers of other forces’ experts nearby, clearly thinking the Sea Clan had been overestimated.
At this rate, not only would the Sea Clan fail to establish a foothold in this settlement and dominate a street, but a small misstep could make their situation even more dangerous than before, leading to their Sea Clan becoming the primary target for other races to eliminate.
Thinking of this, Sea King Arthur could no longer suppress his unease, hefted his trident, and strode forward.
He wanted to personally enter the shop and see what mystery inside had rendered his many powerful subordinates voiceless!
When he reached the door, instead of pushing it open, he lightly waved his trident, and a water-blue light blade smashed the door to pieces with a bang, then he strode in boldly.
The Sea King’s personal action naturally led his subordinates to follow, all of them crowding behind him into the shop.
Then, this seemingly small building surprisingly accommodated all the hundreds of Sea Clan experts.
And soon after, just like before, nothing was heard from within, the silence was terrifying.
The experts of various races on the street exchanged looks, all at a loss.
If they hadn’t witnessed the Sea King and the Sea Clan enter the shop with their own eyes, they might have thought they were hallucinating.
A few experts hesitated for a moment, then slowly approached the shop’s entrance.
They didn’t dare enter the shop now, only wanting to see through the broken door what was inside.
But before they could see the interior arrangement clearly, they heard a bang, and the two doors that had been smashed apart flew from the ground, instantly recombining into a doorway, shutting out all prying eyes with a bang.
The experts of various races exchanged glances, not expecting the shop’s owner to be so strong-willed.
However, they dared not force their way in; this was a clash between the other party and the Sea King. If they dared to enter, they would surely be treated as the Sea King’s accomplices and might end up being killed, bringing disaster upon themselves!
Inside the small building, Qin Feng was full of joy.
Not only had he refined a Space Magical Treasure inside, but he had also set up numerous Prohibition Arrays, making the place as impregnable as iron.
So when the first group of Sea Clan deities came in, Qin Feng directly manipulated the array to trap them inside, sealing the passage in and out, naturally without any sound coming out.
With just these few Middle Rank God realm Sea Clan members, it was impossible to act overbearingly in front of him. Qin Feng immediately summoned his Main Spirit Beast and a large number of Demon Gods to surround them.
Hundreds of Demon Gods could scare those Sea Clan deities out of their wits with their mere presence, leaving them unable to exert even a fraction of their power. After Qin Feng intimidated them a bit, they surrendered!
Afterward, the two Horror Whales came in and didn’t surrender. These two Upper Divine Spirits, confident in their high strength and profound realm, with the Sea King in the rear, believed that if they held out for a moment for the Sea King to come in, the three of their Upper Divine Spirits together could make a few kills even among hundreds of Demon Gods.
At worst, they could break through.
Unfortunately, despite their great power, the two Horror Whales weren’t very smart and didn’t know arrays. Qin Feng tricked them with a few Illusion Arrays, led them into an ambush, and had them half beaten to death, dragging them into the Demon Refining Pot.
That’s why Qin Feng was full of joy.
After all, once he subdued these two Horror Whales, he would have Upper Divine Spirits under his command.
Although they were water experts with limited utility in the Abandoned Land, he was still quite pleased.
Of course, these two were uncooperative, so even with the Demon Refining Pot’s power, it would take a few days to completely subdue them!
The Sea King led his subordinates into the shop and, upon stepping through the door, found his vision blur, feeling as if he had been moved to a strange space.
He raised his eyes and was startled.
For ahead, there were no less than eight hundred Demon Gods, all looking at them menacingly!
The Sea King’s face changed dramatically. Such a large number of Demon Gods not only exceeded his deities’ numbers but his entire Sea Clan combined didn’t even amount to eight hundred!
Qin Feng paid no mind to what these guys were thinking, instead looking at the Sea King with delight: “I didn’t expect another Late Stage Upper Divine Spirit expert, hahaha… Wonderful, with you subdued, I’ll have a strong enough figure under my command to hold the fort!”
“Subdue me? How dare you!”
Sea King Arthur flared up with rage.
He was a dignified lord of the sea, even if he lost all his subordinates and his familiar sea area upon entering the Abandoned Land, his pride never waned.
So he refused the recruitment of top-level experts, relying instead on his power to subdue the Sea Clan and build his own domain!
Now, this Human actually dared speak of subduing him, it was simply delusional!
