Chapter 1828: The Agreement With the Little Princess
Tang Wulin could only heave a resigned internal sigh. This cheeky little princess was already almost 90,000 years old, yet she was still like a complete child.
Soon, he was carried to the surface by the chunk of ice beneath him, and in the next instant, a bridge of ice that led toward the distance appeared on the sea.
The bridge was quickly elongating, and beneath the surface of the sea, the Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess was swimming at a high speed.
The surface of the sea in her wake was freezing rapidly, and even though the waves were very turbulent, the frozen sections were as smooth as a mirror.
She really was very strong in this area. Both her control over the sea and her control over ice elements were quite impressive!
Tang Wulin strode forward and began to glide along the ice, and soon, he caught sight of land in the distance.
The bridge of ice beneath his feet led all the way to that landmass, and as he stepped onto solid ground, the Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess had already flipped herself over in the water before waving goodbye to him with her caudal fin.
“Goodbye, human! If we meet again, don’t forget that you owe me a favor! You have to keep your promise!”
Tang Wulin smiled and waved back at her. “I’ll remember; goodbye!”
“The sixth trial of the Sea God has concluded; would you like to continue?” The authoritative voice rang out once again.
Only then did Tang Wulin realize that only after returning to shore was the sixth trial truly completed, which meant that not only was he required to kill the Evil Spirit Orca King, he also had to earn the acknowledgment of that Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess to complete the trial.
……
In the Arctic Ocean of the Douluo Continent, a massive figure appeared silently in the seawater amid a flash of golden light.
It was clearly a little unaccustomed to this environment, and it had to take a brief moment to regain its balance. It twisted around and inspected its surroundings in a perplexed manner.“What happened? Was that a dream just now? It felt like I went to another world. That human was really fun and really powerful as well,” the Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess murmured to herself.
“The human world seems really interesting. Once I cultivate to the 100,000-year level, I have to take a trip there; I wonder if Mother will let me. Whatever; even if she doesn’t let me, I’ll still go anyway. I’ll just treat it like a sightseeing trip.”
With that in mind, the Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess was filled with a surge of anticipation. At the very least, she was sure that the Evil Spirit Orca King from before had been real, and something had been instructing her to do all of this.
Furthermore, that human had left a very deep impression on her.
“Oh, Mother’s calling me.” The Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess took a moment to determine the direction that the call was coming from, then began to speed through the water.
“Hmm? Why does it feel like I’m faster than before?” She suddenly realized that her speed seemed to be improving as she swam, and that something seemed to be different from before.
For soul beasts, evolution was a very slow process. Otherwise, it wouldn’t take them 100,000 years to be able to attain a human form. However, the improvement that she had just experienced was very noticeable and seemed to have taken place in a very short time.
Before she had a chance to delve deeper into this feeling, she suddenly noticed that the surrounding seawater was changing.
The clear seawater had suddenly become quite murky, and there was an oppressive purplish-black miasma spreading through the sea. Right at this moment, a voice suddenly appeared in her mind.
“Run! Run away, my daughter, and don’t come back! She’s here; that terrifying being came! Don’t come back! Argh… We’re done for…”
The Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess was stunned to hear this voice, and she immediately drew to a halt.
That was the voice of her mother!
“Mother! Mother, what’s happening? Are you alright?” She hurriedly called out with all her might in her heart.
She shared a very profound connection with her mother, and even from long distances away, they could communicate with one another through their spiritual power. However, the connection between her and her mother had suddenly been severed, and an overwhelming sense of dread instantly welled up in her heart.
Something had to have happened to her mother!
The Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess hurriedly shot forth through the water in an urgent manner, paying no heed to the miasma around her as she swam as quickly as she could toward the location where her mother had last called out to her from.
After a long while, she finally sensed her mother’s aura, but it was only extremely faint and feeble.
This further exacerbated the dread that had settled in her heart.
The purplish-black miasma gradually faded, and she was stunned by the sight that was revealed.She saw countless bodies of all types of sea soul beasts, some of which were slowly sinking, while others were gradually rising to the surface.
The entire area was filled with the scent of blood and gore, and there wasn’t even a single shred of vitality left behind.
She then caught sight of some familiar figures; those were none other than her brethren.
“No, no, no, no! It can’t be!” she yelled internally in a panicked manner while frantically calling out to her mother.
“Mother! Mother, where are you! Please don’t scare me like this. Where are you?”
Her mother was the queen of the Demon Spirit Great White Shark Race, and she had spent her entire life growing up beside her mother. They lived without a worry in the world, save for the Evil Spirit Orcas.
However, not long ago, the Evil Spirit Orca Race had suddenly vanished, and not long after that, she was teleported into that strange world.
She had only just returned, everything that she was seeing filled her with horror.
She didn’t dare to think about what had happened, but her high level of intelligence told her that something terrible had happened.
More and more Demon Spirit Great White Shark carcasses began to appear in her field of view, and not a single one of them was complete.
Only through assessing some finer details was she able to identify that many of them were her friends, companions, and even relatives.
Finally, an extremely familiar aura appeared up ahead, and she swam over to it in a panicked frenzy.What she was met by was a dark blue bead that was glowing faintly.
“Mother!” The Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess cried out in a grief-stricken voice and swam to the bead as quickly as she could.
Only 100,000-year level Demon Spirit Great White Sharks would produce a bead like this following their demise. This was the most important thing in the Demon Spirit Great White Shark Race; it was something that was passed down from generation to generation, and it could only be produced by royalty.
The aura on the bead was extremely familiar to her, which meant that this had to belong to her mother! This was her mother’s shark bead, which meant that her mother had died, and not even a single trace of her body had been left behind.
“Mother, Mother, Mother…” She bawled and wept with all her might, thrashing around violently as she did so, causing large sections of the seawater around her to surge and churn.
However, no matter what she did, there was no changing the fact that all of her brethren had perished.
How could this have happened? They were all fine when she had left!
Even the Evil Spirit Orca Race wouldn’t have been capable of completely dominating them, and they were always evenly matched in battle, so how had they all died?
What had happened to lead to this tragedy?
Mother, Mother, you’re not dead, right? Tell me you’re not dead!
The Demon Spirit Great White Shark princess was having a mental breakdown, and it was as if the entire sea had become her tears.
She injected her consciousness into the shark bead, and a thought appeared in her mind.
