"You chose it."
Yun Shou said with a hint of regret, "Unfortunately, we're not really prepared for a life-or-death struggle with the demon race right now."
"No." To the surprise of the demon lords present, Bei Chenguang shook his head.
"Retreat. The sea race awaits your arrival, a sea race utterly powerless to resist."
"We will relinquish the Hundred Realms of Demonic Land, and for the next hundred years, we will not interfere with each other."

【The coastal frontier.】
With the Mermaid King backing them up, more than twenty Sea Venerables were gathered from various areas of the Endless Sea.
However, they were facing seven human supreme beings whose essence was fully enhanced, the weakest of whom possessed 600 times the combat power even with four times the essence.
None of these Sea Lords possessed combat power exceeding a hundredfold.
The twenty-two Sea Lords that the Sea Clan had painstakingly gathered... have all been wiped out!
[...]
[The Deep Sea Palace of the Shark King.]
[You and two other kings descended from the Sun-Diving Belt, reaching the deepest part of the main hall in just over ten seconds.]
Of the five Sea Lords guarding Yantu, the strongest lasted less than a second.
[You were the one who made the move just under a second; none of the other four that the two Human Kings took down took more than a tenth of a second.]
[A massive water curtain has appeared before you. This water curtain can withstand the full power of two Human Kings for a maximum of ten seconds, while the Sea King, who has been sleeping in the seal, will be fully awakened in the seventh second.]
It didn't even last until the seventh second.
[In the fifth second after the two Human Kings unleashed their full power, you chose to return to your true form.]
[The destroyed water curtain was restored to its original state, and the Shark King, who had been beaten for over forty seconds by the Burning Life Force while sealed, experienced a clash of fates, and suffered two self-destructions by the Human King, was also brought back to life!]
At this moment, you desperately try to escape, while Jiang Yi and Xu Shuanghua behind you unleash a barrage of attacks on the weakened and still unconscious Shark King!
The Shark King's strength is approximately 24 times greater, overwhelming the two Human Kings. Even if the two Human Kings joined forces, they would be at a disadvantage when both were at their peak.
However, in that future, after suffering two clashes of fortune and a self-destruction, he not only became significantly weaker and severely injured, but his originally full fortune was reduced to only 30%!
"There's still 30% left?"
Yun Shou was surprised, but then he realized: "Because the battle has only just begun!"
"At the end of the last simulation, the reason why Yun Shi was able to use the sixty seconds of future return to reality to exhaust the Black Dragon Demon King's luck and cause him to fall from his realm was because they were already evenly matched!"
"At that time, the Black Dragon, as the King of Luck, had been fighting with two Human Kings for more than half an hour. Under the intense and high-intensity battle, most of its luck was consumed. Suddenly, it was subjected to a crazy attack for 60 seconds and two self-destructions, which directly blew away its luck... It makes perfect sense."
"But this Shark King is still brand new and unopened. The two Human Kings are much weaker than him. Even if they self-destruct in a hurry, it won't take his life. The damage to him is not a one-to-one exchange. So after returning to his true form, the Shark King will still have about 30% of his luck left!"
Yun Shou frowned: "That makes things a bit troublesome."
The battle to assassinate the Shark King was not as easy as you might imagine.
[Luck lost, severely injured, and 1% of essence removed.]
Despite being burdened with so many negative buffs, the Mermaid King still managed to hold out for more than ten minutes, attempting to escape several times, but was desperately stopped by either Jiang Yi or the other.
[You are 1.5 million miles from the battlefield. By foreseeing a 60-second future moment, you rush to the scene to observe the battle. Although you will be somewhat disturbed by the two Human Kings, it is only the future, and you are only observing the battle situation at that instant.]
"The serious injuries didn't affect him that much," you pondered. "The True King's vitality is insanely tough, and even Supreme Beings can expend their own essence to heal quickly. The Mermaid King must have similar methods."
[A Supreme Being can heal minor to moderate injuries in just over a second using their Source, while the multiple severe injuries suffered by the Shark King would heal in at most six or seven seconds using similar methods.]
However, this is contingent on him not continuing to fight, not becoming distracted, and not sustaining further injury within those six or seven seconds!
[The injuries you brought back from your return to the True Realm could heal in six seconds, but before he could fully recover and organize a counterattack, he was subjected to continuous, frenzied attacks from two Human Kings. By the time he finally managed to mount a counterattack, the time needed to heal his injuries had been extended to more than ten seconds!]
[In those ten seconds or so, the Shark King, already low on health, was struggling to even handle a single Human King, while simultaneously being ganged up on by two others... so he was both rapidly losing and rapidly healing.]
[For every second that painstakingly uses one's own energy to heal injuries, the normally inflicted wounds will require an additional 0.9 seconds.]
[Only as the injuries gradually lessen and combat effectiveness recovers will the damage become "0.5 seconds of additional injury for every second of recovery, until the injuries become increasingly fewer."]
[It wasn't until the 145th second of the battle that the Shark King fully recovered.]
However, due to the excessive burning of his essence to heal his injuries, his strength actually decreased slightly. Considering the 1% of his essence you deducted, he went from "overpowering the two kings" to "being evenly matched in a fight."
In the ensuing battle, the Shark King unleashed his power by burning his primal energy, and the two Human Kings followed suit. The Shark King attempted to escape, but the two Human Kings also unleashed their power to pursue him.
They entered into a complete war of attrition, and the Mermaid King's luck was his weakest link!
At the very end of the battle, an exceptionally thrilling scene unfolded—
The Sea King's luck is almost gone; it's about to fall to the fifth realm. Even if it sleeps in the deep sea and doesn't exhaust its lifespan from the fourth realm...
[They will also be killed on the spot by the two human kings above them!]
The Mermaid King didn't want to die. He hadn't yet become the ruler of the Azure Domain, he hadn't yet led the sea race to the top, and his reign as king hadn't even lasted a hundred years...
But if death is inevitable, then one must make sure one's death is worthwhile.
[And so, at the very end of the battle, in the sixty-second future, you see the Mermaid King shouting "Glory to the descendants of the Sea God!" and, using his "Sea King's Throne," unleashing the power of the ocean in a devastating self-destruction!]
[This incident immediately dragged Xu Shuanghua and another person into the fray, abruptly ending their lives; their fate remains unknown.]
"There's still time!"
[You have collected the information for the next sixty seconds.]
[It's confirmed that the Shark King's massive self-destruction will require time to build up momentum!]
Imagine countless future scenarios in your mind!
