The Domineering King of the Netherworld and His Sweetheart

270. Self-delivered to the Door

Translator: 独步三月

The most common ocean beasts in Ocean World were sea lions, walrus, seals, manatees, ambulocetus, etc.

These were relatively low-grade ocean beasts, but their combat capability was the strongest among low-level ones, and their reproductivity was much simpler than the higher-grade races.

However, no matter how many they had multiplied, the low-level ocean beasts could only yield to the high-level ocean beasts. Under the instructions of the noble races in Ocean World, these low-level ocean beasts would launch an ocean beast wave attack on the Iron Fence every six months. Although there were always heavy casualties, compared to the enormous amount of the low-grade ocean beasts, that loss was nothing.

Although every half a year, the races in the deep water of the Ocean World would send some high-ranking ocean beasts to assist them in attacking the town, they failed again and again.

After tens of thousands of years, these ocean beasts who lived in shallow waters of the Ocean World had become numb and even got used to it.

However, what they didn’t notice was that things started to change. Somehow the strength of the ocean beasts wave had gradually improved, like a process of quantitative change leading to a qualitative change.

Countless ocean beasts crawled out from the bottom of the sea. The high-level ocean beasts sent over from the deep ocean slowly increased, and finally there appeared the God stage ocean beasts which could transform their shape.

God stage ocean beasts were an unreachable sacred existence in the eyes of these low-level ocean beasts.

Now that the low-level ocean beasts had seen them with their own eyes, how could they not be excited. If they could be picked by one of them, it was possible that their race could become the power behind it. From then on, they could get rid of the fate of low class, and even might go up rapidly.

With this thought, the ocean beasts who had refined the spiritual intelligence were unusually excited. Their numb hearts seemed to be reviving from the ashes, and each of them with the glaring eyes, roaring in the night, was extremely excited, which was quite a scene to watch.

This was what Feng Xi and King of the Netherworld saw. As a rough estimate, there were at least three hundred thousand beasts on the coast.

“There are so many ocean beasts. No wonder Zhan Hui was so nervous,” Feng Xi was shocked when he saw it. If the coast could hold more beasts, there would be far more than three hundred thousand ones.

“Although they far outnumber us, they are in a state of disunity without the high-level ocean beasts’ command.”

King of the Netherworld held Feng Xi’s waist and the two floated in the air. None of the ocean beasts below detected them, but so far, there was no sight of high-level ocean beasts. It seemed that General Zhan had worried for nothing. Without the instructions of the high-level ocean beasts, the low-level ones would generally not voluntarily attack the town of humans.

“Boss, where did those high-level ocean beasts go? Why can’t we see them?” Feng Xi’s could also tell that there was indeed no advanced ocean beasts here.

“I’m afraid they are still in the sea,” King of the Netherworld’s eyes fell on the turbulent sea surface, where there were layers of gigantic waves, and there were still other ocean beasts that had yet to land which were swimming in the sea.

“Why don’t we dive in and take a look? Ouch!”

As soon as he finished, King of the Netherworld knocked on his head, “Dive in? How does Xiao Xi plan to dive in?”

Feng Xi remembered how he swam in the water in his previous life, but when he saw Boss’ teasing expression, he felt that he couldn’t say it. Otherwise, he might be ridiculed. But what if he couldn’t dive in? Should he jump in, fly in, fall in, or roll in?

Roughly knowing what he was thinking about, King of the Netherworld could not help but laugh. Just as he was about to speak, the surface of the sea finally ceased to be quiet. A huge wave spanning a hundred metres, slowly rose from the surface of the sea like a huge wall. Under the water curtain, a huge ocean beast appeared. It was a huge turtle that was 30 metres tall and 50 metres long, covering almost one-third of the nearby Ocean World.

This unusual movement also attracted the attention of the guards on the Iron Fence’s wall. The horn rang through the Iron Fence at the instant. It was dawn already. The sun slowly imerged above the sea surface.

There were already many guards on the wall. Seeing this scene, they couldn’t help but gasp. This was the first time they had seen such a huge turtle, which was almost as tall as the Iron Fence’s wall. It was quite an astonishing scene to see. This could not be an ordinary ocean beast wave.

“Everyone, look! There seems to be someone standing on the turtle’s head.”

Someone in the crowd shouted. Everyone looked towards the turtle’s head and suddenly saw a man in a purple robe. The man had a golden crown tied to his hair and had a chiselled face, on which were the deep-set and bright eyes and firm facial features. His gorgeous clothes were decorated with a few dazzling fish scales. Although he was shiny all over, the cold and sinister look on his face gave a big discount to the glow. At the first sight, one could tell that this man was not a kind one.

Apart from man on the head of the turtle, there straightly lined some people in black on the back of it, emitting a strong sense of oppression.

However, two more people were behind the men in black, but they seemed to be quite different. One in black and one in white, they were sitting back casually, with two weapons longer than their height laying beside them. As contrasted with the guarding and aggressive look of the others, the two acted leisurely.

“Oh, so many transformed God stage ocean beasts?”

“That’s not right. They shouldn’t be the ocean beasts of God stage. They might have taken Transforming Grass.”

Even so, seeing this scene, the sounds of gasp could be heard here and there from the wall of the Iron Fence.

As everyone knew, if ocean beasts wanted to transform, it must be refined into God stage, and God stage was divided into 18 stars, just like the Lesser Heaven God and Great Heaven God of Human cultivators, but ocean beast was a combination of two, which was God stage. However, it was not the only method to change the shape. Another was to use Transforming Grass to change form, which was a type of red grass growing in the deep sea of the Ocean World. Any ocean beast could transform into the human shape as long as it ate the grass.

However, the Transforming Grass was also divided into different levels. The older it was, the higher the probability of turning into human shape. For example, the one-thousand-year-old Transforming Grass could ensure the changing result, especially to the advanced ocean beasts. As to the one-hundred-year-old one, the success rate was only 10%. So it was not necessarily only ocean beasts of God stage that could transform.

However, the Transforming Grass was very precious in Ocean World, especially the one-thousand-year-old ones.

Ocean beasts were aquatic living creatures, and most of them couldn’t land on the shore, so they had to use the Transforming Grass. Most importantly, with the human shape produced by the Transforming Grass, they could cultivate twice as fast as before. Thus, the Transforming Grass was very important to the ocean beasts, but it was also something that could only be encountered and not sought. Generally speaking, only the noble races in the deep sea had it.

Therefore, the persons on the turtle might not necessarily be the God stage ocean beasts.

If the Ocean World really dared to sent a few God stage practitioners to attack the Iron Fence with great fanfare, then there was no doubt that the Ocean World was going to tear up the agreement with the guardian. Thus a fierce and bloody war would be doomed, which would definitely not be a good thing for God and Demon Kingdom. Of course, it would not be effect-free to the Ocean World.

King of the Netherworld squinted his eyes and his eyes fell on the two men on the back of the turtle.

Feng Xi followed King of the Netherworld’s gaze. The two men had black hair and eyes, which was different from the other people on the turtle’s back. Instead, they were more like humans, and the people in front of them had uniform green algae hair with a black scarf tied to their forehead, emitting a chilly and bloody aura all over.

“Boss, what’s the two…? Hey, they’re not the ones from the Netherworld we’re looking for, are they?” Just as Feng Xi asked a question, an answer suddenly occurred to him. While feeling surprised, he felt a little enlightened. No wonder they didn’t look like the transformed ocean beasts.

“They are self-delivered to me, which saves me the trouble.” King of the Netherworld took back his gaze and glanced at the purple robe man above the turtle’s head.

“Eh hem, the warlike family will be screwed. Boss, do we need to help?” Feng Xi had wanted to cheer, but he felt that it was not kind to do so, so he pretended to cough.

“Firstly, wait and watch. If those two guys made a move, it won’t be too late to intervene.”

King of the Netherworld came here just to find the two members of the Nether Family who escaped from Degenerate God Ravine. As for the crisis of the Iron Fence, it was the predestined fate of God and Demon Kingdom and had nothing to do with him. The main reason he signed up for the battle was because his darling lover found it interesting. It was not that King of the Netherworld was cold-blooded. As the guardian of the eternal cycle of birth and death, he was indifferent by nature and the deaths and births were nothing but some different forms.

Feng Xi stared at the giant turtle for a while and pulled King of the Netherworld’s sleeve. “Boss, this turtle is really huge.”

Seeing his eyes staring at the turtle, King of the Netherworld laughed, “Does Xiao Xi fall for this turtle?”

Feng Xi scratched his head embarrassedly, “But it’s really big!”

King of the Netherworld shook his head and said, “This turtle actually has not come of age. The real mature turtles are tens of or hundreds of times bigger than this one. The ocean beasts gathered in front of the city gate were nothing but some underlings in the Ocean World, who only lived near the coast. The real Ocean World creatures are deep in the sea, and their actual bodies are much bigger than this giant turtle. People call them Sea Kings, which is the so-called high-level bloodline ocean beasts.”

“Wow, Boss, can you take me to the Ocean World to have a look some day?” Feng Xi was immediately intrigued. Sea King, it sounded so cool. He was more and more attracted towards the Ocean World.

“Are you still into this turtle now?” asked King of the Netherworld with the corner of mouth lifted.

“No, no! Not anymore. I want Sea King type,” Feng Xi shook his head hurriedly and balled his fists to express his determination.

Just as Feng Xi showed an expression of yearning, the master of the warlike Family just stepped onto the wall. His solemn and dignified face made people revere. The restless crowd quieted down instantly.
