âHuh? That foul mouthed shark didnât follow us.â Ynes said after looking back.
âThis vicious fish seems apprehensive about this place and doesnât dare approach.â Alex frowned. âI
have to think of a way to lure it in.â
The Holy Maiden, Ynes, jumped in shock. âYou still want to lure it here? Were we not miserable enough
during our escape?â
Alex said, âThis guy is of great use!â
However, no matter how Alex tried to lure the shark, it was unfazed. It even gave Alex a sideways
glance. That sharkâs face was also very emotional. Disdainful, it opened its mouth to speak in human
language. âBrat, youâre a descendant of Atlantis City, are you? Youâre like a contemptible rascal. Do
you think Iâm as stupid as you, getting lured into the huge formation? Let me tell you. From now on,
donât you guys think about coming out. Iâve called the big army and will defend this city to our last.â
Alex and Ynes were rendered speechless.
But soon, they understood what the big army was. It was unknown what kind of trick that shark had
used, but it had somehow called a vast army comprised of countless undead demon beasts that
poured in from all directions.
There were turtles as giant as islands, humongous swordfish with only bones left in their bodies, half-
headed squid monsters, and even corals that had cultivated into undead creatures⦠There were all
sorts of creatures, and each emitted a terrifying aura.
Alex noticed that all the undead demon beasts had a ball of bright blue flames in them.
Ynes told Alex that this was the soul fire of the undead demon beast, enabling these sea demon beasts
complete mobility and the ability to cultivate even if their flesh had long decayed. Moreover, they also
possessed a portion of the Undying Clanâs will. Once their soul fire was extinguished, the undead
demon beasts would also lose their lives.
âHow do I extinguish this soul fire?â Alex asked.
Ynes whispered, âI once read an ancestorâs handwritten note in the scripture library of Yorkshire
Palace. Itâs arduous to deal with an undead demon beastâs soul fire. Only the Church of Holy Light and
Buddhist cultivation techniques can restrain them. Otherwise, you have to obliterate their flesh to drag
the soul fire out, then exterminate it with mental attacks.â Alex was overjoyed.
This was good news.
However, too many undead demon beasts had come over, each of them very powerful. The densely
packed demon beats surrounded the ancient undersea city circle after circle and blotted out the sky,
leaving an apocalyptic vibe in the air.
âThe key point is still that sh*tty immoral shark If we could destroy it, the others shouldnât pose a threat
to us,â Alex said.
To his surprise, the great shark heard him. Thus, it went through the roof and began cursing loudly.
Alex noticed that the other undead demon beasts did not seem to be able to speak, like dead
creatures. Only that shark was bizarre and eloquent like a loudmouth that shouted abuse in public. The
most important thing was that it didnât possess the blue soul fire.
âIgnore it for now and let it bark here. It doesnât have the guts to enter the ancient city, anyway,â Alex
said.
Hearing that, the great shark provoked him by rushing into the ancient city with a swish.
âIâm coming in!â
However, it retreated quickly. âIâm going out again.â
âIâm coming in again. What are you going to do about it?â
Boom!
It was then that a flash of dazzling lightning, appearing out of thin air, struck at the great shark.
After letting out a horrible scream, a large charred area with blood oozing out appeared on the sharkâs
back that had been struck by lightning. Fortunately, it wasnât struck to death. It hurriedly ran out of the
ancient cityâs periphery with a lingering fear.
Alex was a little shocked. It turned out that there was actually such kind of protection in the ancient city.
âHaha, you son of a b*tch! You were so ostentatious, only to be struck from head to toe by lightning.
Come again if you think you can!â
âIâm not going to accompany you. Go inside and continue abusing your ancestors!â
Alex took Ynes and rushed into the Seventy two Heavenly Immortal-slaying Formation.
At the same time, a commotion broke out in the great world.
A great shark that had been lured out of the Endless Sea had slapped a big shot of the Peacock Tribe
to death. Ten or so demon immortals from the Peacock Tribe had also died a horrible death in the
Endless Sea, and about nine hundred experts from the Western Ridge had been killed in the battle as
well.
The Peacock Tribeâs people wore mourning outfits as the entire tribe was grieving.
Meanwhile, people from sacred mountains, sanctuaries, and ancient sects in various regions of the
great world and those big shots who initially wanted to cross the Endless Sea to explore the sacred
golden mountain changed their plans and dared not venture there recklessly.
