110: A group of sharks...

“Puff, puff, puff, puff, puff…”

A dense sound of Piercing rang out.

The enormous body of the sea monster was instantly covered by countless ice-blue Spiral Thorns.

These thorns carried powerful Piercing force, easily Piercing through the sea monster's skin and muscles.

The sea monster cried out in pain, letting out a mournful wail.

It frantically waved its tentacles, trying to block, but the number of thorns was too great, making it impossible to completely defend against them.

Bright red blood spread through the seawater, staining the surrounding area.

The sea monster still wanted to counterattack, but the Raging Waves Sea Soul wouldn’t give it a chance.

The giant turtle roared, increasing its Source Power output!

Tens of thousands, an endless stream of Spiral Thorns, generated in the seawater.

They converged into a blue torrent, completely engulfing the sea monster's massive body.

The entire sea seemed to be covered by this storm of ice-blue thorns.

The sea monster, bound by rules and whose strength was abnormally increasing, finally stopped struggling under the endless Piercing of the thorns.

Its body was riddled with holes, and its enormous form slowly sank into the seawater.

It had killed this fourth-tier sea monster without much danger!

Although its strength was forcibly raised to the fourth-tier by the rules, its movements were restricted, turning it into a living target.

Lu Yuan controlled the Raging Waves Sea Soul to approach the sea monster's corpse.

He jumped off the Tidal Turtle Shell and cautiously searched in the seawater.

Soon, he found a beast core in the sea monster's head that emitted a powerful aura.

This was a good quality fourth-tier water-element beast core, containing pure water-element Source Power.

Lu Yuan put it away.

Just as he was about to leave, he noticed a strange energy escaping from the sea monster's corpse.

This energy was faint gray, definitely not Source Power, and had no fluctuations whatsoever!

Instead of dissipating, it drifted directly towards Lu Yuan, as if being drawn by something.

Lu Yuan was a little surprised; this energy seemed to have no hostility towards him.

It flowed directly into the mysterious stone fragment he kept close to him.

However, the stone fragment did not change at all, remaining in its ancient and dull state.

Nothing happened?

A hint of doubt flashed in Lu Yuan's mind.

No, it's not that simple.

Could this strange energy be a special product generated during the process of the secret realm's rule-based formation?

Or is it related to this mysterious stone fragment?

There aren’t enough samples; I’ll study it later.

After clearing the battlefield, just as Lu Yuan was about to command the Raging Waves Sea Soul to continue forward.

Under the distant sea surface, several powerful auras were startled and were rapidly approaching his location!

The sea monster's blood permeated the seawater, seemingly attracting more trouble.

Some of the auras even made him feel a sense of pressure!

Those were definitely powerful existences of the fourth-tier, or even higher tiers!

This was a nascent secret realm; the rules were not yet fully stable, but the danger level far exceeded imagination!

Lu Yuan dared not delay for a moment.

He immediately jumped back onto the Tidal Turtle Shell of the Raging Waves Sea Soul, urgently issuing commands to the giant turtle.

“Little Turtle! Go! In that direction! Full speed ahead!”

He pointed in the opposite direction.

The massive body of the Raging Waves Sea Soul suddenly accelerated in the seawater!

Its four limbs, like giant propellers, paddled with all their might, carrying Lu Yuan in a high-speed dive.

Currents whistled past them, and bloody seawater was left behind.

However, the startled auras were even faster!

Only a few minutes passed.

Through his senses, Lu Yuan discovered that he was already surrounded!

Several powerful auras approached from different directions, blocking all his escape routes.

The Raging Waves Sea Soul had no choice but to stop, its massive body rotating cautiously in the seawater.

Lu Yuan stood on the Tidal Turtle Shell, his gaze heavy as he looked around.

In the dark seawater, streamlined figures burst out from the deep seabed in the distance.

They had slender bodies, and their dorsal fins were like sharp blades, cutting sharp trajectories through the water.

Sword-finned Demon Sharks!

And, there were many of them!

At first glance, there were dozens!

Each of these Sword-finned Demon Sharks emitted a powerful aura of a third-tier early stage.

What made Lu Yuan's heart sink even more was that among this group of demon sharks, there were several larger and more terrifying presences.

Those were the kings among the demon sharks!

Shark King!

Fourth-tier early stage?

Perhaps even higher!

This group of Sword-finned Demon Sharks was clearly attracted by the blood of the previous sea monster, but their target was now locked onto the Raging Waves Sea Soul.

Such a massive body would be enough to eat for half a year.

They circled, contemplating how to launch their attack.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath.

There was no escape.

“Little Turtle, prepare for battle!”

With a thought, the Source Power within him surged.

The Raging Waves Sea Soul let out a low roar, its massive body adopting a battle stance.

“Roar!”

The shark pack seemed to hear the provocation and were instantly enraged!

Dozens of Sword-finned Demon Sharks, with a terrifying momentum, charged towards the Raging Waves Sea Soul from all directions!

The fierce battle in the deep sea erupted completely at this moment!

Lu Yuan commanded the Spiral Thorns to counterattack!

The ice-blue torrent of thorns reappeared, meeting the charging demon shark pack!

However, these Sword-finned Demon Sharks were far more agile than the previously restrained sea monster.

They weaved rapidly through the seawater with astonishing speed and agility, dodging the dense thorns.

Some demon sharks endured the thorn attacks, opening their gaping maws to bite the giant turtle's body.

Others tried to bypass the giant turtle and directly attack Lu Yuan, who stood on the Tidal Turtle Shell!

A bunch of beasts!

Lu Yuan stood on the turtle's back, commanding the Raging Waves Sea Soul to fight with all its might.

“Little Turtle, be careful of their dorsal fins!”

The dorsal fins of those Sword-finned Demon Sharks were as sharp as knives; at high speed, they were enough to cut through steel!

“Roar!”

The Raging Waves Sea Soul roared, and the Tidal Turtle Shell's water curtain solidified further, while countless Spiral Thorns shot out, attempting to block the sharks' charge.

“Puff, puff, puff!”

Some third-tier demon sharks that charged too fast were unable to dodge and were instantly pierced by the thorns, sinking to the seabed with screams.

But more demon sharks, relying on their extreme agility in the water and the 'meat shield' cover of their companions, successfully broke through the thorn blockade.

Their target was clear: the relatively vulnerable limbs and head of the Raging Waves Sea Soul!

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

Over a dozen Sword-finned Demon Sharks, like arrows released from a bow, sliced towards the Raging Waves Sea Soul from all directions.

“Retract!”

Lu Yuan ordered again.

The Raging Waves Sea Soul's limbs suddenly retracted, and at the same time, the water curtain shield on its body instantly contracted inwards, forming a more solid water wall that firmly protected its vital parts.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

A dense sound of impacts rang out, sparks flying!

The demon sharks' dorsal fins struck the turtle shell, producing a metallic clang, yet they could not advance an inch.

The Raging Waves Sea Soul's defense was an existence that even fifth-tier masters would find hard to shake!

Lu Yuan lay on the turtle shell, well-protected by the shield, temporarily safe from harm.

His gaze was fixed on the few Shark Kings circling on the periphery of the battle, waiting for an opportunity.

Those were the real threats!

Just then, a particularly agile Shark King, a glint of cunning in its eyes.

It did not choose to charge head-on but used an extremely peculiar swimming style to bypass the Raging Waves Sea Soul's frontal Tidal Turtle Shell and the concentrated firing zone of the Spiral Thorns!

Its speed was extreme, its dorsal fin trailing a long, thin white line in the water!

Its target, surprisingly, was Lu Yuan!
