Chapter 285: Chapter 40: The Imminent Great Battle

"Human warrior, where are you? Dare you show yourself and fight me?!" the shark clan warrior bellowed, his voice echoing above Haiya City, bolstered by Magic Power like a thrown gauntlet.

Countless sea creatures charged forward with the waves.

Smashed by a surge, the sparse surviving soldiers couldn’t organize a proper formation, resulting only in a one-sided slaughter.

Seeing the human foundations easily trampled, Caesar burned with rage, considering that under his rule, how would an alien invasion compare?

"I am here!" Caesar roared, his dissipating Magic Power stirring the heavens, as dark divine thunders fell from the sky.

"Ha ha, good, I thought you had fled," the shark clan warrior lifted his spear high, "Swallow the Sky!"

The seawater reversed, coalescing into a thousand-foot Magic shadow with a staggering momentum, swallowing up all the divine thunders summoned by Caesar, and even devoured the thick clouds, biting off a chunk of the void.

The shark clan warrior pointed his spear at Caesar, "Puny human, state your name!"

"Puny human?" Caesar sneered, "I am Caesar."

"What is that?" the shark clan warrior laughed, "Remember, he who kills you is Shark Tooth, the third strongest of the shark clan!"

That thing? Was he mocking his name? Caesar’s renowned name had once intimidated countless people, and today was the first time it was mocked, truly ignorance breeds fearlessness.

Caesar said no more, driving his Magic Power as he opened the Divine Scripture of the Heavenly God in his hands, "Chapter Seven, the God says—Shatter!"

A sense of crisis surged, Shark Tooth, arrogant and proud, thought that if he could withstand a blow from this old man without flinching, wouldn’t it prove he was more formidable than Natias? Then, it would only be logical for him to propose a re-election for the War God of the sea clan.

With this thought, Shark Tooth advanced instead of retreating, his spear stirring up robust Magic Power, creating seven tornadoes on the sea, "Angry Sea—First Form!"

Tiny stars rose, continuously nourishing and repairing Natias’ wounds. Watching the two about to clash, Natias sneered coldly, Shark Tooth was too arrogant, he deserved to suffer!

Having faced Caesar’s skill before, Natias clearly knew just how strong this old man was in front of him, even the Sea God Trident had been repelled, what chance did Shark Tooth have?

Caesar’s skill had no physical form, it was purely a shockwave of condensed thought, radiating outwards from him as the center, bursting all creatures it passed.

Since there were no human soldiers left on the coast, the sea clan warriors suffered heavy casualties under this strike.

Shark Tooth drove the tornadoes towards his adversary. Upon contact, Caesar’s skill easily suppressed them, causing Shark Tooth to suffer backlash, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Having succeeded with one strike, Caesar pursued his advantage, chanting, "Verbal Curse—Punish!"

Shark Tooth looked up at the ten dark divine thunders continuously falling, feeling tremendous pressure. It was the first time in his centuries of life that he felt the threat of death.

"Natias! Come help me, quickly!"

"Heh!" Natias really didn’t want to help, but facing a common enemy and for the sake of the sea clan’s great cause, now was not the time to hold a grudge. Lifting his trident, Natias stirred the waves and dashed towards the divine thunders.

Shark Tooth also desperately urged his Magic Power, summoning a massive Magic shark phantom to head towards the divine thunders.

Three forces converged in one place, lighting up the East Coast with dazzling polar lights, visible clearly even from cities thousands of miles away.

The tremendous destructive power created a Magic Power storm, leveling the entire coast, turning countless sea clan soldiers to ash under the strike, which was why the Continent of God’s Grace had signed a treaty; the Magic Power of a Third Transition powerhouse could commune with the essence of heaven and earth, and its destructiveness was simply too great.

Caesar, enduring the backlash of his skill, pulled his Magic Power output to its maximum, suddenly, the Trident pierced through the Magic storm with rolling waves, flying towards him.

Faced with danger, Caesar calmly responded, layering Magic Power barriers in front of him, but the Divine Artifact inherited by the Naga Queen sliced through like a hot knife through butter, unstoppable.

With a thought, two divine objects flew out from Caesar’s storage ring, as a powerhouse who had lived for N years, his reserves were certainly no less than the imperial treasury.

A green stone collided with the Trident, spreading eerie frost continuously, and Natias also felt a bone-chilling cold. The Magic Power driving the Trident was about to freeze, and his offensive dissolved in an instant.

"I’m here to help you!" Shark Tooth, no longer acting pretentious, quickly gathered Magic Power on Natias’ shoulder, attempting to help him dispel the frost.

Regrettably, like being electrocuted, the eerie frost also spread to Shark Tooth, and in that moment, Shark Tooth felt his soul freezing, "No... no, he’s... too strong!"

Natias, under immense pressure, bit his tongue, "Summon the Queen’s avatar!"

Pure water poured down, dispersing the frost from their bodies, the Naga Queen’s figure slowly surfaced above the sea.

Caesar awaited this moment, wildly pouring Magic Power into the second Divine Artifact, the rusty spear suddenly burst with a bloody light, and a blood moon descended from the sky.

"Kill!"

Following Caesar’s fierce shout, the spear sliced through the sky, heading straight for the Naga Queen’s brow.

"Human, you are strong," the Naga Queen sensing the ancient killing intent, "This is the relic of the Blood Refining Sky God, unfortunately, you are still not worthy to wield it."

The Queen raised her finger, a drop of sea water landed on the spear tip, the bloody spear froze inch by inch, completely shattering half an inch from the queen’s brow.

"Phew~" Nathias let out a sigh of relief, grateful that Her Majesty the Queen was unharmed. As he looked at Caesar, a sense of fear arose from within. Caesar had plotted against him, using a Divine Artifact to distract him into summoning the queen and then tried to kill her. Fortunately, Caesar’s strength fell just short.

"Is that so?" Caesar, nearly exhausted, invoked the last of his magical power. The previously shattered spear condensed once more and instantly penetrated the queen’s illusory figure.

Dark red blood dripped from the center of her forehead; the queen’s enormous figure shattered like a mirror.

"Your Majesty!" Nathias cried out in alarm.

"It’s nothing serious." The queen smiled at Nathias and said, "Although I’m a bit hurt, controlling the orb isn’t much of an issue. However, I’ll have to rely on you now."

"At your command! Nathias will not fail the trust Her Majesty has placed in me!"

As his words fell, the queen disappeared, and the tumultuous sea gradually calmed down.

Turning to look at Caesar, who was already exhausted and struggling even to flee, he had given his all. To have wounded the Demi-Goddess Queen was an unparalleled honor in the world.

"You deserve to die!" Nathias bellowed, raising the trident high and slashing it down fiercely.

Am I going to die? Caesar let out a wry smile. Having lived so long, perhaps it was time for release, but... he hadn’t yet seen Lai Li get married; it felt... such a pity.

Just then, Old Hank burst from the flank, sacrificing himself to shield Caesar. His ancestral Divine Weapon shattered under the blow of the trident, unleashing the power of thunder contained within it to block the attack.

Nathias stepped back half a step, and in that moment, Old Hank also lifted Caesar and fled through a portal.

After setting Caesar down roughly on the ground, Old Hank knelt, half-kneeling. At only Early Stage Third Transition, although he hadn’t died from taking that hit for Caesar, he would likely have to spend the next year in bed.

"Why did you come?" Caesar asked with a bitter smile.

"Damn it, if Qi Rong hadn’t tampered with finding your secret chamber, I wouldn’t have had to sell half my life," Hank spat helplessly. "What in the world is going on at the sea? What are those multi-armed creatures?"

"They are sea creatures, the royal Naga among those who struck just now," Caesar explained. "The sea creatures are invading, the empire is in danger. You should quickly get the Thunder Clan out of the Continent of God’s Grace. They are well-prepared, and the empire, having just endured years of brutal war, will struggle to resist."

"What? Sea creatures? Naga?" Hank’s eyes widened in disbelief. Weren’t these just mythical beings recorded in the texts?

As he drank a magic potion, Caesar’s complexion gradually improved. The empire was facing a sudden crisis, and he looked towards Jinrui City, wondering how Konstantin would handle it.

As the news continuously flowed in, Konstantin’s expression grew grim. The words ’Naga’ and ’sea creatures’ came up repeatedly.

Taking a deep breath, what mattered most now was to hinder the Naga’s advance, to prevent the sea creatures from further invading imperial territory.

"Questasa."

"I am here!"

"Draft an order immediately, summoning all dimensional forces, all powers at disposal. The sea creatures haven’t signed the ancient covenant, so Third Transition fighters must join the battle. We need to establish a new defensive line before they do, thwarting their surprise attack."

"At your command!"

"Additionally, send a message to the Supreme; I need to speak with her in person."

Under Questasa’s arrangements, the aged figure of the Supreme appeared before Konstantin.

"Reliable sources report a sea creature attack," the Supreme said somberly. "The northern coastal defenses almost instantly collapsed. What are the losses in the south?"

"The same," Konstantin replied coldly. "What Baron Yitian said wasn’t false, it’s just a pity he was framed by you and still refuses to return to the empire."

"What matters now is how we confront the sea creatures and preserve our human heritage," the Supreme was not willing to uncover that old wound.

"Ha." Of course, Konstantin only complained briefly before saying, "I have already ordered the mobilization of all available forces back to the Continent of God’s Grace. Does the northern defense line need support?"

"It can hold its own." The Supreme said, "If support is needed, I’ll make another request."

"The sea creatures are ferocious, surely very well-prepared. This is the greatest crisis the empire has ever faced. I hope our two great families can set aside our differences temporarily and survive this ordeal together."

The Supreme seemed to understand Konstantin’s intent, watching him quietly before slowly replying after a long pause, "Are you sure you want to temporarily set aside the Extrema Abyss?"

"What else? The empire’s north and south territories broke in an instant, destroying over twenty cities. Their forces might sweep through the entire empire within a month. Even now, mobilizing forces from various dimensions and strongholds will hardly organize a decent resistance."

The Supreme considered thoughtfully, then sighed, "Fine, freeing up the two legions suppressing the Extrema Abyss could indeed ensure temporary safety for the empire, but we should not delay too long. Once the Demonic Qi of the Extrema Abyss leaks excessively, the power of the Demon Beasts will surge wildly, potentially causing a terrible disaster."

Konstantin stood with his hands behind his back, "My human race has silently borne endless calamities for the beings of the Star Sea. Who else knows? Now that the Great Summer is about to fall, who else can care about the lives of others?"

"Konstantin...," the Supreme hesitated, "The two legions of the Extrema Abyss are a double-edged sword, you’d better be careful."

"I know."

"Good," the Supreme also made up her mind, "This time, I entrust my Shahe Clan’s Demon Slaying Army entirely to your command; I hope you don’t disappoint me."

"Thank you."
