Chapter 1085: Discovery

The sudden manifestation of Xu Yang's powerful soul energy filled the Second Master with unprecedented terror. He recalled that during Xu Yang's previous visit to the Demon Dragon Legion for that treacherous banquet, none of the three core elders had even shown themselves. At that time, Xu Yang's name was utterly insignificant to them.

Who could have foreseen that in just a few short years, the Glory Team would become the undisputed ruler of the entire Endless Sea, an overwhelming force that no other power could easily defeat?

Xu Yang, the leader of this team, possessed personal strength far beyond anyone's imagination. Merely sensing a faint ripple from Xu Yang's soul origin was enough to render the Second Master utterly speechless and terrified.

The Second Master instinctively realized that even his advanced mastery of soul transformation techniques was utterly insignificant before this man, leaving him as vulnerable as an ant before an elephant.

"Your strength truly astonishes me," the Second Master said. "Could you tell me the extent of your peak power? You might genuinely be the second being to successfully reach Dragon Island after us three brothers."

Xu Yang scoffed. "Do you not find it utterly meaningless to discuss such things with me in this situation? We are sworn enemies; only one of us will leave this place alive. Anything else we say holds neither meaning nor value."

Xu Yang, having anticipated the Second Master's intentions, immediately shut down any possibility of further negotiation. He suspected the Second Master was merely stalling for time, hoping to uncover vulnerabilities in his soul to launch a desperate counterattack.

Unfortunately, Xu Yang was simply in a league of his own. His cultivation journey was beyond anyone's comprehension, rendering even the most formidable combatants seemingly ordinary in his presence.

Often, when an opponent's strength utterly surpasses your own, it is wise never to test their limits, lest you invite a far more tragic outcome.

As expected, Xu Yang wasted no more words. An overwhelmingly powerful soul suppression swiftly emerged, completely dominating the confined space. Immediately afterward, Xu Yang unleashed a terrifying beam of light, piercing a massive hole through the Second Master's soul origin with a single thought.

The Second Master had neither prepared an escape nor conceived a way to counter Xu Yang's methods. Overwhelmed by Xu Yang's terrifying power, he was utterly shattered into oblivion.

With the Second Master's demise, the soul worlds of both Little Mushroom, who had fallen into his own dream, and Vajra, who had been influenced by Little Mushroom's dream power, experienced significant fluctuations.

Xu Yang immediately brought both of them into his Angelic Domain. Using his powerful soul origin, he then began to cleanse their spiritual worlds.

Continuous streams of golden light, imbued with the purest soul essence, enveloped the minds of Vajra and Little Mushroom. Soon, all sorts of dream-induced impurities and distractions within them were completely cleared.

Undeniably, the power of the angelic bloodline was immense. In virtually every aspect of the cultivation world, Xu Yang possessed near-perfect, unsurpassable top-tier talent—a unique competitive advantage gifted by his angelic heritage.

"My goodness," Ling Yao exclaimed, "no wonder the power of the Angelic race has always been considered the ultimate symbol of strength in this world. Their bloodline is simply heaven-defying! It's truly unfathomable what kind of civilization could have created such a lineage to be passed down through generations. It's simply incredible."

Ling Yao clearly understood the dire situation Little Mushroom and Vajra were in. Yet, even under such circumstances, Xu Yang single-handedly turned the tide, not only rescuing the siblings but also instantly obliterating the Second Master's soul origin. Such an achievement truly justified his title as the Endless Sea's Foremost War God.

"Hahaha, Boss," Lister chuckled, "Ling Yao has already devised your new title. 'Endless Sea's Foremost War God' – doesn't that perfectly suit you?"

Xu Yang paid no heed to such empty titles. He merely shook his head with a wry smile and shot a glance at Lister. "You rascal, enough with the jokes. Get to work! Although I've shattered his soul origin, his physical body remains intact. It's time to locate it and provide a second wave of benefits to the surrounding sea creatures."

Xu Yang's words now carried the weight of an imperial decree within the Glory Team, demanding unquestioning obedience from everyone. In the shortest time possible, the Pransis couple, utilizing the Black Pearl's unique search system, pinpointed the exact location of the Second Master's life force fluctuations.

Gugulas personally went forth and retrieved the Second Master's corpse, bringing it onto the deck. After Xu Yang, their leader, inspected it and confirmed it was indeed the Second Elder of the Demon Dragon Legion, he unhesitatingly bound the body to the massive spirit stone they had previously acquired from the deep sea.

He then tossed this massive combined mass skyward, allowing it to plummet heavily into the deep sea. He did this to lay a solid foundation for the Black Pearl's final push towards Demon Dragon Island.

Thanks to the auxiliary functions of his Infinite Ocean Divine Artifact, as this enormous object (the bound corpse and spirit stone) continuously plunged into the abyssal depths, the surrounding sea creatures went utterly frantic, desperately vying for it. Xu Yang, in turn, monitored the entire chaotic process using his Infinite Ocean Divine Artifact.

Thus, with that enormous object serving as bait, Xu Yang could effortlessly and perfectly monitor any changes occurring in the depths of the sea.

With this robust advantage, Xu Yang could now propel the Black Pearl forward at full speed, aiming to land on Demon Dragon Island within the next three days as planned.

These powerful sea creatures cared little about the origin of what could boost their cultivation levels. Although they all outwardly revered the supreme Demon Dragon of Demon Dragon Island as their god, they would, however, not hesitate to devour the Demon Dragon's flesh to strengthen themselves should it ever be slain by a more powerful being. Such was the fundamental rule of survival of the fittest in the animal kingdom.

"Hahaha, Boss," someone exclaimed, "we've made a huge discovery this time!"
