Chapter 258: Too Thrilling

  "Thinking of leaving now? Isn’t it a bit too te?"

  The God of Sloth watched as Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong fought while slowly retreating, assuming they were considering an escape.

  After all, with the current situation, he was gradually gaining the upper hand.

  He only needed one opportunity to subdue both of them completely. So, it was normal for them to consider retreating.

  However, he also understood the dangers of cornering a desperate enemy. He didn’t want to chase them too hard, fearing that if they were pushed into a corner, they might fight him with reckless abandon.

  That could potentially ruin their grand pn.

  Thus, the God of Sloth allowed Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong to retreat while ensuring they couldn’t escape his pursuit.

  After some time, their battle shifted from nd to the open sea.

  With every powerful strike, massive waves over a hundred meters high rose as their blows struck the water.

  Initially, this didn’t seem significant.

  But then, the God of Sloth noticed a figure in purple armor breaking through the waves, approaching him within a mere hundred meters.

  A jolt of arm hit him—could this be an ambush?

  However, upon assessing the strength of the newcomer, he felt reassured.

  There was nothing to fear.

  The other’s power was that of a mere divine attendant, far inferior to the inheritors of the Angel God and Rakshasa God.

  Immediately, he sent out a mocking thought to everyone.

  "Haha, I can’t tell if you’re all ignorant or just fearless."

  "This fishy-smelling creature wants to fight me? A mere divine attendant, barely worth mentioning even in the Divine Realm, nothing but cannon fodder. Watch me wipe him out with a wave of my hand."

  The God of Sloth sneered and swung his dark green spear, sending a terrifying surge of power at the approaching Deep Sea Demon Whale King, now just 30 or 50 meters away.

  In an instant, the energy appeared to cross the void and strike the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

  However…

  Ripples formed on the Deep Sea Demon Whale King’s body, dissipating the deadly green energy.

  "What… what’s going on?"

  The God of Sloth’s lips quivered, not from fear, but from shock.

  He knew that such an attack would have instantly annihited a divine attendant in the Divine Realm, yet this being, who was only slightly stronger, emerged unscathed.

  How could he not be stunned?

  "This guy must have some kind of treasure…"

  "Of course. Qin Xiao is so powerful. If he left without worry, he must have left some contingencies on Douluo Continent."

  The God of Sloth quickly pieced together the situation.

  He was certain that Qin Xiao was somehow involved.

  "But I refuse to believe that this creature can block me!"

  Momentarily abandoning his attacks on Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong, the God of Sloth focused entirely on the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

  He had a hunch that this creature might be Douluo Continent’s st hope, and if he eliminated it, no one would remain to pose a threat.

  With this thought, he thrust his two spears forward.

  Notably, the twin spears struck in two directions—one aimed at the center of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King’s forehead, intending to obliterate its soul.

  One spear aimed for the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's heart, intending to obliterate it and shatter his divine body. But the God of Sloth’s pns, however carefully id, failed to account for the fact that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King hadn’t come to throw his life away.

  In that instant, as the God of Sloth and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King were about to csh, the Whale King pulled out an object from his chest.

  It was a pitch-bck scepter.

  The protective ripples surrounding the Deep Sea Demon Whale King emanated from this scepter.

  The God of Sloth’s eyes widened in shock when he saw it. “The Scepter of Destruction! That’s the super-divine Scepter of Destruction!”

  He was stunned.

  He had never expected that his master’s Scepter of Destruction would end up in the hands of a mere divine attendant.

  “Haha, you guessed right. Consider this your reward—death!”

  The Deep Sea Demon Whale King fshed a fierce smile, raising the Scepter of Destruction high.

  Boom!

  The gemstone at the scepter’s tip fshed, releasing a dark purple bolt of destructive godly lightning like a vicious dragon. The lightning surged forth from the gem, instantly annihiting the God of Sloth’s attack and striking him head-on.

  “Aaaargh…”

  The God of Sloth let out a bloodcurdling scream that echoed across the battlefield.

  Qian Daoliu, Bibi Dong, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King all sensed the terrifying power of the godly lightning and watched from afar, not daring to come closer.

  But from the twisted expression on the God of Sloth’s face, it was clear that being hit by the destructive godly lightning was excruciatingly painful.

  Time seemed to stretch, and though only a few breaths had passed, for Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, it felt like an eternity.

  After those few breaths, the God of Sloth finally disintegrated into ashes under the terrifying godly lightning.

  “Finally,” Bibi Dong exhaled a long sigh of relief.

  The weight that had been pressing on her heart finally lifted.

  “Hah… hah…”

  After confirming that the God of Sloth’s aura was completely gone, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King’s tense nerves finally rexed.

  He panted heavily, trying to calm his racing heart.

  Yet, despite everything, he was still immensely excited, unable to contain himself. “That was thrilling! I actually slew a god today.”

  After all, this was a true god, far above the pseudo-gods of the Abyssal Pne.

  “Ahem…” Qian Daoliu cleared his throat. “It’s not polite to interrupt, but I have to ask… how did you do it?”

  Though he seemed to be addressing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, his gaze never left the scepter in the Whale King’s hand.

  Clearly, he understood that the scepter was essential in allowing the Whale King to sy a second-tier god.

  The Deep Sea Demon Whale King hesitated for a moment, then said, “Well, there’s no harm in telling you…”

  “You can all see it too. The reason I could kill this arrogant fellow was entirely because of this scepter.”

  “This is no ordinary weapon. It’s a super-divine artifact called the Scepter of Destruction, which Qin Xiao took from a god known as the God of Destruction.”

  “A super-divine artifact? No wonder it has such immense power!” Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong were visibly astonished.

  Their inherited memories had informed them that super-divine artifacts were rare in the Divine Realm, mainly wielded by god-kings as the most powerful treasures of the realm.

  Seeing their expressions, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King sighed and expined, “Don’t get too excited. With my cultivation level, I can’t fully wield a super-divine artifact this powerful.”

  “The only reason I was able to kill that second-tier god was because Qin Xiao left a portion of the scepter’s power within it. Even if I put everything I had into it, I could only use it once…”
