Although Wang Hao's martial spirit was not very strong, it had a powerful deterrent effect. It was precisely because Silver Shark sensed the powerful aura of Wang Hao's martial spirit that it was willing to submit.

In Silver Shark's view, with such a powerful martial soul, Wang Hao should be a human martial artist at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Realm, and there is nothing shameful about submitting to him.

Whether human or ferocious beast, the strong are respected.

If the Silver Shark knew that Wang Hao was only at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, it would never choose to submit, even if it knew it would die at Wang Hao's hands. After all, it was the overlord of the waters, how could it submit to a human weaker than itself?

Wang Hao said, "Why should I believe you? What if you suddenly go back on your word and turn around and bite me?"

Fearing he might anger this powerful human, Silver Shark quickly said, "I am willing to offer up my beast soul. As long as you have the beast soul, even if I want to rebel, you can crush my beast soul directly."

The Silver Shark is highly intelligent; it understands that to survive, it must make the greatest concessions.

Beast Soul is the soul of the Silver Shark.

Whether human or beast, if the soul is shattered, death is inevitable.

Generally speaking, the soul of a ferocious beast can only reside within its body. However, when the soul grows to the level of a beast soul, it can leave the body and even be relocated elsewhere.

Silver Shark's current plan is to entrust the beast soul to Wang Hao in exchange for a chance to survive.

After pondering for a moment and weighing the pros and cons, Wang Hao finally decided to take the beast soul of the Silver Shark.

The Silver Shark is powerful and a waterborne overlord. Controlling such a ferocious beast would be very beneficial to Wang Hao, and he could even use it to deal with experts in the black market.

"Alright, then you can entrust your beast soul to my dantian."

A halo appeared on Wang Hao's lower abdomen, and a phantom of a green lotus emerged, swaying in the wind. A powerful force of life emanated from it, making the Silver Shark even more terrified and feeling that the human before it was unfathomable.

Wang Hao deliberately showed the projection of the Primordial Chaos Green Lotus to the Silverlight Shark, just to intimidate it. Moreover, with the power of his Dao Foundation, suppressing its beast soul would be very easy.

Wang Hao landed on the back of the Silver Shark. At this moment, it was almost dusk, and a pale moon hung in the sky, like a mark on the sky.

On the horizon, the evening glow was like fire.

The bright red sun was about to set below the horizon.

Wang Hao took out a fourth-grade healing pill, "White Bone Muscle Regeneration Pill," and tossed it to the Silver Shark, letting it take it and heal itself.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Master," Silver Shark said in a human voice, with reverence.

Now that its beast soul is under Wang Hao's control, it naturally fears and respects Wang Hao greatly, and dares not have the slightest rebellious thought.

Fourth-tier ferocious beasts already possess a high level of intelligence and can quickly learn human language.

This is only a fourth-tier ferocious beast. The legendary seventh-tier ferocious beasts can even cultivate into human form.

Looking at the setting sun on the horizon, Wang Hao said, "You should be quite familiar with the River of Death, but do you know where the underwater Dragon Palace is located?"

"Master is going to the underwater dragon palace?" Silver Shark exclaimed in surprise.

Wang Hao said, "Don't tell me you don't know the location of the underwater dragon palace."

"Of course not, it's just... it's just that the underwater dragon palace is located at the deepest part of the River of Death, and it's also the territory of the three-clawed dragon. If humans were to venture there, they would be doomed," said Silver Shark.

Wang Hao asked, "Is the three-clawed dragon very powerful?"

“I once went to pay homage to the Three-Clawed Dragon, which was an incredibly terrifying ruler of the waters. Just the aura emanating from it made me tremble and dare not move.”

"Master, you must not go to the underwater dragon palace. If we disturb the three-clawed dragon, we will all be doomed," Silver Shark said in a terrified tone.

We definitely have to go to the underwater dragon palace; the dragon relic is too important to Wang Hao.

Wang Hao gently stroked his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face, and said, "Silver Shark, since you respect me as your master, will you obey any of my orders?"

“That’s natural,” Silver Shark said.

Wang Hao said, "Alright! Then go and pay a visit to the Three-Clawed Dragon Flood Dragon now, and tell it that a large number of humans have entered the Death River section, wanting to break into the underwater Dragon Palace and seize the treasures inside."

"Master, who exactly is trying to break into the underwater dragon palace?" Silver Shark asked.

"If you shouldn't ask a question, then you'd better not ask it," Wang Hao said.

Silver Shark immediately shut up and, as Wang Hao instructed, rushed off to inform the Three-Clawed Dragon.

Before leaving, Silver Shark told Wang Hao the location of the underwater dragon palace.

"Since we're going to the underwater dragon palace, this is a good opportunity to test my fastest burst speed."

Wang Hao stood on the water as if walking on flat ground. He took a deep breath, immediately unleashed his movement technique, and suddenly rushed out.

As time went on, Wang Hao's speed increased, quickly breaking through the 300 meters per second barrier, then 310 meters per second, 320 meters per second, 330 meters per second, 331 meters per second, 332 meters per second...

As the speed of sound approaches, air resistance increases significantly.

"Sizzle!"

Wang Hao's clothes burst into flames and instantly turned to ashes.

At the same time, Wang Hao experienced various uncomfortable symptoms. His upper body became increasingly heavy, while his lower body became increasingly light. His eardrums were stretched by the powerful counterforce, causing tinnitus.

"puff!"

Wang Hao plunged headfirst into the water, and the powerful impact created a huge wave on the surface.

After a while, Wang Hao leaped out of the water and stood on the surface again, his wet hair falling across his face as he gasped for breath.

"The closer you get to the speed of sound, the greater the air resistance becomes. If my physical body hadn't reached the late Golden Core stage, my body would probably have been torn apart by that powerful counterforce long ago."

When Wang Hao previously merged his cultivation to reach the speed of sound, he didn't feel anything particularly strong.

However, when one actually attempts to break through to the speed of sound with the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment stage, they discover that the difficulty is immense.

It was only a tiny bit away from the speed of sound, but the closer it got to the speed of sound, the greater the pressure on the body became. Even with the body of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, it was difficult to withstand.

Martial artists in the Heavenly Realm possess a protective Heavenly Aura that can withstand that pressure, while Golden Core experts also possess a protective Spiritual Aura to protect themselves.

However, Wang Hao lacked the protective Heavenly Gang and could only rely on his physical body to resist, which naturally led to various discomforts.

Wang Hao's robes had long since burned to ashes, leaving him completely naked. A smile appeared on his lips as he muttered to himself, "No wonder the elders of the six academies all wear specially crafted silver robes. Ordinary clothes would definitely spontaneously combust when traveling at high speeds."
