Soul Emperor Martial God

Above the Endless Black Sea, a gigantic creature sprawled across.

Its massive body spanned over a hundred miles.

Its entirely dark body seemed like a layer of solid "armor" encased it.

On the upper body, the enormous head bore sharp, huge spikes that were terrifying to behold.

"Hisss," every Human Martial Artist present couldn't help but gasp in shock.

This was the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor, the Abyssal Demon Beast Emperor of the Endless Black Sea.

It was rumored to carry a trace of the bloodline of the Ancient Demon Clan emperors.

It was the most ferocious demon beast, without any equal.

At this moment, the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor opened its mouth wide.

A terrifying suction force suddenly erupted.

The force that could swallow rivers and mountains caused the nearby sea within thousands of miles to churn, creating numerous towering tornadoes that ravaged the entire Endless Black Sea.

"Not good, retreat quickly," Divine Martial King exclaimed.

The terrible suction force even made him, a martial artist of his level, exert all his power to barely retreat.

At the same time, the power of the Endless Black Sea from within tens of thousands of miles surged continuously toward them.

Flowing through the giant beast's skin and into its body.

Almost at a visible speed, the aura of the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor kept increasing dramatically.

Whoosh…Whoosh…Whoosh…

On the battlefield, countless figures rapidly leaped backwards.

The Human Martial Artists on the sea surface all retreated to a ten-mile flatland.

"Retreat inside the Heavenly Gold City Wall," Divine Martial King shouted loudly.

His deep cultivation made his voice spread across the entire battlefield.

"Charge," Divine Martial King, Hall Master, a woman, and several Commanders, along with 15 Hall Masters, all shouted loudly.

Together, they erected a massive barrier, resisting that terrifying suction force.

Before long, millions of human powerhouses had all returned to the top of the Heavenly Gold City Wall.

One by one, with lingering fears, they looked at the enormous creature in the distance that was still opening its mouth.

That terrifying suction force, they simply couldn't contend with.

Had it not been for Divine Martial King and others joining forces to block it, half of those millions of human powerhouses might have been sucked into the giant beast's mouth, with very few able to escape.

In the distance, tens of millions of Abyssal Demon Beasts knelt on the ground.

All the Abyssal Demon Beasts' gazes concentrated on the giant beast, their eyes filled with submission and awe.

"Hall Master, what's going on?" Xiao Yi, who was also helping to set up the barrier, turned to the Hall Master and asked.

"This beast has shown its true form," the Hall Master replied gravely.

"The strength it exploded with from absorbing the power of the Black Sea for just a moment was already at the Heavenly Extreme Realm."

"Currently, it is still absorbing, trying to stabilize its strength completely."

"Heavenly Extreme Realm?" Xiao Yi's face turned pale with fright.

Xiao Yi frowned as he looked toward the distant giant beast.

In his perception, the head of the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor had an aura that was incredibly terrifying.

This aura was hundreds of times stronger than any he had felt before.

If nothing unexpected, that was the aura of the Heavenly Extreme Realm.

Meanwhile, the other parts of the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor emitted only a Half-step Heavenly Extreme aura.

But the aura from these parts was rapidly intensifying.

Once the entire body's strength fully increased to the Heavenly Extreme Realm, it would be the moment it completely stabilized its power.

"Is there no way to deal with it?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice.

Divine Martial King and the Hall Master shook their heads.

"No," the woman quickly said, "It's only at Quasi-Sky Extreme Realm. Perhaps we could try to delay time."

"Hmm?" Divine Martial King and the Hall Master brightened up.

"The so-called Quasi-Sky Extreme Realm is when the strength reaches the Heavenly Extreme Realm, but the Cultivation Realm does not."

"Right now, this monster is simply using its enormous body to absorb the power of the Black Sea to forcibly elevate its strength."

"The Cultivation Realm is still just at Half-step Heavenly Extreme."

The Hall Master said gravely, "If we can delay the time it takes to completely stabilize its power."

"Once the three of us completely neutralize the severe poison in our bodies and our strength returns to its zenith."

"By combining the power of the three of us, we might stand a chance against it."

Having said that, the three continued to maintain the barrier while simultaneously launching powerful attacks.

Divine Martial King threw out a punch, an annihilating punch, that immediately traversed a great distance.

The Hall Master released a palm strike, a mysterious Palm Wind, transforming into a huge handprint.

The woman unleashed a slash, a streak of Cold Frost Sword Qi, unstoppable.

The attack of the three simultaneously reached the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor.

Three ferocious assaults exploded on the giant beast's body, producing a deafening roar.

"We did it," the woman's face lit up with joy.

But the next second, her expression darkened.

For the aura on the giant beast's body was increasing at an unabated speed.

The trio's attack was indeed powerful, even causing the giant beast's body to cave in significantly, turning to dust.

However, these indentations, these fractures, merely constituted less than one thousandth of the giant beast's body.

The beast was too massive.

Those injuries were insignificant.

The three had never really expected to injure the Devouring Sky Demon Whale Emperor.

They had merely planned to use their fierce attacks to slow the beast's rate of strength increase.

Yet, they still failed.

"Monstrous creature, wildly cultivated," Emperor Huang, Poison Emperor, and the Great Wilderness Palace Master shouted.

More than twenty attacks were unleashed simultaneously.

The attacks from these Supreme Strong were impressive.

However, the effect was far lesser compared to the trio.

More than twenty attacks didn't even reach the giant beast and were sucked in by the enormous sucking force from the beast's mouth.

More than twenty attacks entered the mouth of the giant beast, disappearing without a trace like mud vanishing into the sea.

"Damn it," the Divine Martial King and others wore extremely grim expressions.

"How powerful," Xiao Yi was shocked.

This was the strength of the Heavenly Extreme Realm, no, it was merely the Quasi-Sky Extreme Realm.

Such suction had already made it impossible for millions of human strongmen at the East Sea Fortress to resist, forcing them to retreat back onto the Heavenly Gold City Wall.

Even the collection of Supreme Strong were helpless.

The Heavenly Extreme Realm was an existence of another category.

The gap between Earth Extreme Realm and Heavenly Extreme Realm was like a chasm, not something numbers or strategies could ever bridge.

The first realm below Martial God was not to be trifled with.

Just as Earth Extreme Realm could slaughter Heavenly Origin Realm like slaughtering chickens; so could Heavenly Extreme Realm slaughter Earth Extreme Realm just as easily.

No amount of numerical advantage or powerful methods was anything but a joke.

"We have no choice but to retreat," Divine Martial King's face was as grim as water, his expression filled with reluctance.

"Retreat? What about the East Sea Fortress…" Several commanders were shocked.

"Forget it," the Hall Master cut in.

"The strength of Heavenly Extreme Realm isn't so easily attained."

"This monstrous creature, rather than reveal its true form and forcibly absorb the power of the Endless Black Sea, aims to achieve Heavenly Extreme Realm strength."

"The price it pays is at least half of its lifespan, if not more."

"It shows that it's utterly determined to take down the fortress."

"Once it completely stabilizes its strength, the entire East Sea Fortress will turn to ash in an instant; all human martial artists will die."

"All commanders, heed my command," Divine Martial King shouted.

"Present," Emperor Huang, Poison Emperor, Golden Emperor, Wind Emperor, Ice Emperor, Emperor Tong, and Rock Emperor, the seven commanders, responded.

"Immediately lead the fortress warriors to retreat at the maximum speed, leave the East Sea Coast," Divine Martial King ordered.

"Yes," the seven bowed to take the order.

"All Hall Masters, heed my command," the Hall Master also shouted loudly.

"Present," each Main Hall Master responded.

"Immediately lead all the Demon Hunter Hall's forces away from the East Sea Coast."

"After getting outside, integrate the Demon Hunters from each main and sub-hall."

"From here on, it's up to you," the Hall Master looked deeply at each Main Hall Master.

"Yes…" the Main Hall Masters subconsciously took the order but quickly reacted.

"Hall Master, you…"

"We can't leave," the Hall Master shook his head.

"Divine Martial King," the commanders, startled, looked at the Divine Martial King.

Divine Martial King smiled, "The Hall Master is right; the three of us can't leave."

"From now on, it's up to you."

"Divine Martial King… Hall Master…" The commanders, Main Hall Masters, their expressions drastically changed.

"Stop talking, just go," Divine Martial King spoke sharply, "If we don't leave now, no one can."
