772: Chapter Four Demons Breakthrough
Luo Xiu also had an impression of the guy who called himself the Sea God; he was the one Luo Xiu sensed at the end of the Sea Dragon Palace.
Even the powerful Yaksha Empress, when facing this guy who called himself the Sea God, revered him as her master and showed him great respect.
"What happened?"
Shadow saw Luo Xiu's solemn expression, a hint of worry in his eyes. Even as a Divine Fire Clone, his form was somewhat illusory, but he paid no attention to it, still lost in his thoughts.
Shadow couldn't help but ask, his voice carrying a touch of curiosity.
A moment later, Luo Xiu reopened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.
He raised his hand and infused Shadow's Divine Soul with the Merfolk Emperor's Divine Soul memories and the information about the mysterious person he encountered when he and Galan fought against the Yaksha Empress.
These pieces of information, like streaks of light, flickered within Shadow's Divine Soul.
Shadow quickly absorbed the memories within the Divine Soul, and a grave expression gradually appeared on his face.
He frowned deeply, pondering the implications of it all.
"This Merfolk race has truly produced an extraordinary individual, capable of creating Emperor Realm Experts in such a way."
Shadow exclaimed in admiration, simultaneously realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Moreover, Shadow also learned from this that the capture of the Sea King was not only because the Sea King had slaughtered many Merfolk race members and sea beasts, but more so because of the Sea God's command.
The Sea God clearly had his own agenda, using the Sea King's matter to achieve some ulterior motive.
"Then I'll take the Sea King away to prevent him from being captured and targeted again in the future?"
Shadow looked at the Sea King, who was still focused on refining the potion, a hint of regret on his face. Although the Sea King had made some mistakes before, he still had some potential. If he could be well Cultivated, perhaps he could still be used by his master.
"After he finishes refining, the master will also sense it. As for what happens next, it depends on whether he has the ability himself.
This King has already acted for him twice, and even that guy hasn't recovered yet because of it!
It's already good fortune that he wasn't directly killed; does he still expect this King to always protect him?!"
Luo Xiu said somewhat angrily, recalling the price he paid to save the Sea King earlier, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
This was the first time Shadow knew of Galan's whereabouts. He had been wondering why her communicator had been unreachable.
It should be known that given Galan and Luo Xiu's strength and seniority, they were worthy of Shadow proactively reporting some important intelligence.
It was just that although he couldn't contact Galan before, he hadn't deliberately inquired.
After all, with such existences, he couldn't monitor their whereabouts. What if they were Cultivating or carrying out the master's mission? It wouldn't be wise to disturb them rashly.
"Alright, this King should leave now. If there's any follow-up intelligence, contact this King!"
Shadow nodded slightly. As he looked up, a deep tunnel appeared before the three of them.
The tunnel exuded a mysterious aura, as if connecting to another mysterious world.
Luo Xiu's thought moved, and the already dim God-Demon Flame around him quickly retracted, returning to his body like a tide.
As the God-Demon Flame returned, his body solidified a bit more.
Immediately, he stepped into it with the demonized Merfolk Emperor and left.
Just as he was about to disappear, the Sea King's deep blue eyes instantly opened.
His eyes were filled with shock and reverence, staring at Luo Xiu's departing back for a long time, unable to snap out of it, not even noticing Shadow approaching him.
"So, still celebrating that you weren't killed?"
Shadow said with a hint of teasing. These words made the Sea King's body tremble, and he then recovered, his gaze even turning somewhat fervent towards the direction Luo Xiu had left.
"Who is that adult?"
The Sea King asked urgently, his heart full of curiosity, wanting to know who this adult with such powerful strength and mysterious aura truly was.
"Luo Xiu, Sequence 001!" Shadow replied concisely.
"001, indeed, truly worthy of being an adult. Only such an existence can be a strong one, and only such an existence can be second only to the master!"
The Sea King's face was full of respect, not only flushed, but his body even trembled a little!
A strong fighting spirit ignited in his heart, longing to be as strong as Luo Xiu one day.
A hint of surprise flashed across Shadow's calm face, and then he subtly retreated a few steps.
He muttered to himself, "Was he beaten silly?"
But the Sea King seemed to hear Shadow's thoughts and directly turned to meet Shadow's gaze.
His eyes were filled with determination and persistence, and he said, "An adult like Luo Xiu, with such strength and talent, is a true King, the goal I have always pursued!"
Shadow directly flashed back several steps, picked up the lost saint relic, left a communicator, and then disappeared directly into the darkness. Before disappearing, he left a message: "Everything depends on yourself from now on. If you need any news, you can contact me. But it's not free. Also, the master may summon us in the near future. I hope you are still alive then!"
As the last words fell, Shadow's figure completely disappeared into this underwater world.
The Sea King didn't speak, his gaze immediately becoming resolute. He clenched his fists, secretly vowing in his heart: "Adult Luo Xiu, I will catch up to you very soon!"
Luo Xiu was unaware of everything that happened afterward. If he had known, who knows what might have transpired.
After the Divine Fire Clone returned to his main body, he summoned Sword Demon and the Four Demon Generals!
"This is an Emperor Realm Expert and an Emperor Realm crystal core. Take them and devour and refine them. If you still don't Breakthrough, then die!"
Luo Xiu's voice was calm, but the Four Demon Generals' hearts trembled, yet they had no complaints whatsoever.
"We obey!"
Sword Demon and the other three obeyed without hesitation. They knew that if they still didn't Breakthrough with two Emperor Realms, they might as well die.
In the following days, the Four Demon Generals successively Broke through. The first to Breakthrough was surprisingly Sword Demon, followed by Flame Demon, and then Sky Demon and Blood Demon almost simultaneously Broke through.
Moreover, their Breakthrough only consumed the transformed Merfolk Emperor Realm, and the power of the God-Demon Flame within him helped them refine and purify it even further.
Coupled with that Emperor Realm crystal core, the aura of the four was no longer ethereal but incredibly solid.
"Thank you for the King's reward!"
The Four Demon Generals came to Luo Xiu and bowed respectfully, their eyes filled with fanaticism!
"Since you've all Broke through, then go complete the mission: attack the Ice Clan Alliance!"
