Seeing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's eyes finally turn serious, Tang San knew that his words had worked.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but on the surface, he still maintained a mysterious and inscrutable demeanor.

He slowly raised his hand, and a pure, dark divine power, exuding an aura of corruption and decay, slowly condensed in his palm.

Where does my power come from?

Tang San sneered and retorted, "And you? Sir, where did you get your godlike power from?"

"Don't tell me this is the result of your own hard work and cultivation for nearly a million years."

"You know better than I what the limits of a soul beast are. That shackle of law is something you simply cannot break with your own power!"

Tang San's words were like sharp knives, piercing the heart of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!

That's right!

He's right!

Soul beasts cannot become gods!

This is the most fundamental law of this world!

The reason why the Deep Sea Demon Whale King has achieved its current level of cultivation and was able to break through that shackle and possess power comparable to a god is not because it is exceptionally talented, nor because it cultivates diligently.

Rather, it was because, hundreds of thousands of years ago, it inadvertently swallowed a mysterious crystal that fell from the sky!

It was the terrifying power contained within that crystal, a power not belonging to this world, that transformed its body, corrupted its soul, and also granted it the possibility of breaking the laws and evolving infinitely!

This is its biggest secret!

That is also the source of its power!

But how did this tiny human know this secret?!

Could it be that...

A conjecture that even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King found unbelievable surfaced in its mind.

"You... the power within you also comes from... the 'outside'?"

For the first time, the voice of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King trembled slightly.

"At least you're not stupid."

Tang San's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile of complete control.

This is exactly the effect he wanted!

He wanted to let this old monster fill in the blanks and make his own guesses!

"Now, do you still think we have to fight to the death?"

Tang San looked at the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and slowly said:

"We are all the same kind. In this world controlled by the so-called 'divine realm,' we are the outcasts!"

"You should know very well what will happen to us once those guys in the God Realm discover our existence!"

"Instead of fighting amongst ourselves here, why don't we join forces?"

Join forces?

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King fell silent.

Golden light flashed constantly in its enormous single eye, indicating that it was engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

Tang San's words truly resonated with it.

It knew very well that although it was powerful, once it was targeted by the gods, it would definitely be doomed.

The high and mighty sea god had always been eyeing it covetously, wishing he could get rid of it as soon as possible.

If only we had an ally who also possessed "powers from beyond the realm"...

No!

no!

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's eyes quickly turned cold and greedy again.

ally?

Do I, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, need allies?

This little guy in front of me has unlimited potential, but he is too weak right now!

He's so weak, I could crush him with a single finger!

What benefits would I gain from cooperating with him?

But if I swallowed him...

Then that pure divine power from "outside the world" on his body will all be mine!

At that time, my strength will definitely increase dramatically again!

It's even possible that he might break through to the true god level in one fell swoop!

At that time, what will I have to fear, what will I have to fear, what will I have to fear, the divine realm, or the sea god?!

"Join forces?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King let out a low, cold laugh, his voice once again filled with undisguised killing intent.

"Little guy, you're too naive."

"Your proposal does sound very tempting."

"However, I prefer... to have all the power in my own hands rather than a weak ally!"

"So, you'd better... obediently become a part of me!"

Before the words were even finished!

boom!

An even more terrifying and violent pressure than before descended instantly!

The Deep Sea Demon - Whale King - has completely decided to kill!

Its massive, island-like body lunged forward, its enormous maw, large enough to swallow the heavens and earth, snapping fiercely at Tang San!

"not good!"

Tang San's expression changed drastically!

He didn't expect that even after he had said all that, the other party would still choose to take action!

This guy is a complete madman!

Greed has completely blinded its reason!

As the gaping maw of the abyss drew ever closer, emanating an endless stench, Tang San's heart sank to the bottom.

It’s over!

This time, it's really over!

He has used up all his cards!

Faced with the old monster's all-out attack, he had no chance to fight back!

"Am I really going to die here...?"

A flicker of despair and resentment flashed in Tang San's eyes.

However, at this critical moment!

A cold, emotionless female voice suddenly rang out in the minds of Tang San and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King simultaneously.

"presumptuous!"

"How dare a mere crawler touch the person I've chosen?"
