Most of those rescued didn't think, "Even our benefactors have flaws," but rather, "How could we not have realized that!"
[Related information was also posted on the Yuaneng Network, but it drew criticism from other places, such as "lust at first sight" and "is this using merit to coerce and kidnap the other party's life?"]
What's comforting is that even more people fought back on your behalf.
[In martial arts, strength reigns supreme, and your domineering status gives you the right to demand these things. But in the current vast, turbulent sea, the lives of the weak are like ants, mere scraps of flesh and blood beneath the monstrous tide... a mere speck of skin... truly worthless!]
"He saved hundreds of islands and hundreds of millions of lives, but he had no female companions around. Is it really so outrageous for him to want to have sex?"
"You think you can kill a third-realm sea monster? Do whatever you want with me!"
"The Cloud Guardian didn't force anyone, nor did he coerce anyone into repaying his kindness. He demanded purely voluntary relationships, even refusing married women; it was just a pure and temporary affair."
"Humans have always been tolerant of the strong and those who have made contributions."
"A hegemon is already a very high-level martial artist."
Yun Shou understood this point. Some of the great artists or scholars in his previous life had personalities that could be considered inferior by universal values, but people would still only feel that they were awesome when they heard their names.
Besides, Lao Shi didn't really hurt anyone, so how can this be considered a stain? This is clearly just a romantic affair.
The human race did not shed tears for a hero like you.
They're just making your brother cry, cry and cry.
[You threw a five-hour party, defeated hundreds of challengers, and afterwards, instead of feeling exhausted, you were refreshed and full of energy!]
[Even at the late-stage Celestial Realm, five consecutive days of extreme water and fire attacks would be enough to defeat you and end your package prematurely.]
[And now, even if you annihilate them for thirty days and thirty nights, you will suffer no loss!]
Yun Shou couldn't help but sigh, "A higher cultivation level really works; even the duration has increased so much."
"I told you martial arts training was useful."
[On the thirty-third day of the tide, another great sea serpent at the sixth level of the third realm has fallen to your palm.]
You could have continued to happily dominate weaker opponents like this forever... until this day, you got cornered.
[A super whale that is over 500 meters long!]
Fortunately, it wasn't the "Man-Slaying Whale," but rather one of the strongest sea monsters at the peak of the Third Realm.
[It is the mate of the "man-slaying tyrant whale," a female deep-sea whale.]
"Human Guardian Yun, slay my sea monster Shark Arm General, Shrimp River... are you ready to face your death?"
[The deep-sea demon whale roared, and hundreds of miles of seawater came to its disposal. It possessed an affinity for water and a higher realm, granting it greater authority over the seawater. The ten thousand units of material you control cannot manipulate the seawater here.]
You are on high alert because you've discovered... you're no match for it!
The Deep Sea Demon Whale's cultivation level is at the tenth level, but it possesses the bloodline of the Giant Kun!
This increased its physique and demonic energy tenfold! It only lacks ten times the spirit; otherwise, it would be a perfect battle physique.
Therefore, the Deep Sea Demon Whale's combat power is at the thirteenth level of the third realm, twice as strong as a regular peak-level whale!
[One level higher than the newly ascended Demon Realm Level 9!]
"However, at that time, Lao Jiulian was not even at the late stage. He was at the sixth or seventh level of cultivation and had the combat power of the twelfth level, which was already quite formidable."
[You're only approaching level five now, your stats are comparable to level ten, a difference of nearly tenfold. Even with the ability to foresee the next ten seconds, you can only avoid being hit. Killing it or escaping is incredibly difficult.]
[Nearly ten times the output power, nearly ten times the health, nearly ten times the defense; one hit from it will severely injure or kill you, while one hit from it will tear your skin apart!]
[The Yang Bird Guardian Bird, which you "raised your hand" and kicked out of the Hundred Races Battlefield, was only seven times your strength. Yet, in just a few dozen breaths, it still managed to inflict an unavoidable attack on you, depleting your protective energy...]
[Although you've become far more adept at using your ability to foresee the next ten seconds than before, able to see dozens or even hundreds of different futures in an instant, this deep-sea demon whale... you've tried thousands of times and still haven't found its weakness!]
It's even faster than you, and its massive body can't hinder the movements of a thirteenth-level demon. You're now facing a formidable enemy that can relentlessly pursue you!
[You tried a desperate, frenzied attack, but it only dealt minor damage... Reverting that damage back to the present won't help much.]
[After all, the key to overcoming a power gap lies in using ten seconds of the future to dodge damage and inflict endless scratches, rather than rushing forward to tank it head-on: tanking it head-on means facing a real, multi-fold difference in power, and even desperately dealing damage won't bridge that gap, it's not like the Demon Clan's Blood Burning skill.]
You realize... you were being a bit too naive before.
[Lao Jiu, relying on his unparalleled ability to manipulate the future form, was able to easily outmaneuver the King of Armor's son, who was three times stronger than him at the time. However, when faced with the King of Armor's son, who was five or six times stronger but had failed to advance, he could only run away and ultimately managed to kill him by taking advantage of the terrain.]
[So you think that extending three seconds to ten seconds, tripling the duration, plus an extra chance to return to the true form, would allow you to leap eight times in strength and three minor realms... but that's not the case. In battle, three seconds actually exhausts all future possibilities.]
[Ten seconds only allows you to see more of the slowly unfolding defensive net, and even if you use it for a desperate attack to deal several times the damage, it's only equivalent to the opponent's basic attack, and you can only inflict damage when they are underestimating you.]
You felt helpless; you hadn't really wanted to use "that move" in the first place.
"Alright, it seems I'm no match for you on my own." You shrug. You'd tested them countless times, but only a little over a second had passed, and the deep-sea whale had barely given you your chance to "face your death" in less than two seconds.
You pressed your temple: Let's continue exploring the future, this time with a different approach.
"Faced with your sudden change in attitude, the Deep Sea Whale is somewhat puzzled: 'You do seem to have some self-awareness. Are you pretending to be indifferent because you know you're going to die?'"
"Or perhaps you intend to betray humanity and join my sea monster side?"
The deep-sea demon whale shook its head, which was as large as a building: "But impossible! Do you really think that after doing something like that, you can still join my sea race?!"
It said coldly, "That Shark Arm kid, I watched him grow up from a cub!"
"The blood feud will be avenged today!"
"You've misunderstood..." Two seconds later, you suddenly rushed forward: "I'll fight you to the death!"
The deep-sea whale scoffed at the sight of its massive tail; it seemed to be overthinking things. You're just a hot-blooded fool, a bird trying to shake a mountain.
It launched an attack, unleashing a torrent of demonic energy that shattered the seawater for miles around, creating a vacuum!
[The demonic energy formed a giant wave, creating millions of azure-blue strands that swirled around it, forming a colossal sea-and-sky hammer that crashed down... but you dodged it at the last second!]
Even in the event of a group attack that is truly unavoidable, you will only suffer the slightest impact.
You are like a humanoid rocket that can change direction at will, anticipating all its reactions through thousands of previous tests.
