Unstoppable Crushing: Starting from Adding Points in Dreams

Chapter 678 - 403: I Only Accept the Right Choice

Crash!

The seawater roiled, flowing invisibly.

The clan’s palace amidst the coral reef was magnificently beautiful, where dozens of mermaid warriors with spears stood solemnly, patrolling the area with giant crabs and shrimp-like sea beasts.

The enormous octopus giant beast was respectfully invited to an open space in the palace, its tentacles wrapped around a wine glass as it drank with relish.

Many other exquisitely featured mermaids carried fruits and sweet, clear spring water back and forth through the hall.

"So this is the Mermaid Palace..."

Lei Long, dressed in a jacket, sat on a coral chair, looking around in amazement.

This was his first time entering this place.

Silver and red coral walls, incredibly sweet underwater springs...

With a lingering sense of wonder in his eyes, he felt that such an experience was significant enough to leave a mark on his seafaring career.

It could even be compared with some great explorers with maritime legends.

In contrast.

Chen Feng’s expression remained calm, long accustomed, as he sat in the main seat, silently flipping through the numerous ancient texts left by the Mermaid Clan.

Nine True Gods, divine war legends, church faiths...

Ghost Sea pollution, Evil God seals, mythological slumber...

He had learned many secrets, but still knew very little about the records of the Divine Attribute Fragments.

Noticing his faintly furrowed brow, Della, dressed in a gold and yellow patterned long dress, pondered for a moment before speaking timely.

"I don’t know what Lord Feng Chen is looking for?"

"Actually, within our clan, some histories are not recorded, only passed down orally over generations."

She hoped to demonstrate the usefulness and value of the Mermaid Clan.

Especially as the ocean tides recede, the threat of the Fishmen at the Sea Split Canyon could appear at any time.

She knew she didn’t have much time left to hesitate.

Hearing this, Chen Feng became interested and put down the books in his hand.

"Have you ever heard of Divine Attribute Fragments?"

He did not hide it, confident in his power.

Immediately, Lei Long was filled with surprise, and Della was also startled.

In this world, gods are supreme.

Anything that can be associated with the word "god" represents countless legends and treasures that could make people excited and envious.

For a moment, the palace was somewhat silent; Chen Feng was not surprised, only patiently waiting.

"The elders in the clan, someone once mentioned something related."

After pondering for a moment, Della decided to truthfully disclose.

"It is rumored that at the end of the sequence, one must obtain a transformational divinity to become a god."

"Additionally, there is also a rumor that the nine True Gods fell asleep because, during the initial divine war, their divinity was damaged..."

She carefully revealed the secrets she knew, and Chen Feng frowned slightly, but felt it was not much different from what Old Zhang had previously informed him.

Divinity should be a certain attribute, only obtainable when the level of life reaches an extremely powerful level.

But the key is.

How to find the Divine Attribute Fragments?

Could it be that he has to kill a god or a demigod at the level of the Angel King?

This was clearly impossible, far too difficult for him at present.

"Oh right."

Suddenly, Della’s expression changed, as if she thought of something.

"It is rumored that gods sometimes briefly awaken to respond to the prayers of certain devout believers."

"Some have thus received a wisp of divine blessing, gaining empowerment and becoming an angel, capable of executing divine punishment..."

The sudden words made Chen Feng’s gaze shift.

Divine blessing?

He thought of what Yang Wudi had previously mentioned.

Once, in a mountain cave in Lou Yue Country, he had killed a walker of the Evil God Church.

At that time, the opponent was muttering before dying, unfortunately failing to receive the Evil God’s blessing to obtain the Divine Attribute Fragment.

"So, Divine Attribute Fragments are actually a segment of a god’s own characteristic, stripped away?"

"They can exist independently, most likely held by some angels or extremely devout believers?"

Chen Feng roughly sorted his thoughts.

Immediately, he recalled the Evil God’s power he had discovered earlier at Storm Cliff, and the stone pillar suspected to be the severed arm of the Sea God.

He began to ask Della about these matters.

"The Sea God and the Evil God?"

Della was taken aback, not anticipating he would ask about this suddenly.

Without much concealment, she recalled what she had seen and heard in the past, then explained again: "The Sea God predates even the nine True Gods in origin."

"He is an ancient god nurtured and born from this ocean, capable of mastering all the powers of the sea, ruling over all marine creatures..."

"He even established an Ocean Divine Kingdom, at that time, our Mermaid Clan was one of his followers..."

Della’s narration was not much different from the records in the books; as Chen Feng flipped through, he saw depictions of Sea Giants and giant whales hundreds of meters in size.

They were all existences that once followed the Sea God until they gradually disappeared after he went missing.

"The sea eye at the Sea Split Canyon was first discovered by him, who then led an army to fight against the Evil God and the Ghost Sea’s pollution, ultimately sealing this place along with other True Gods."

"In the subsequent wars, he also participated multiple times... until before the final battle, he suddenly disappeared, vanished without a trace..."

Della narrated in detail, mixing recorded facts with rumors.

Chen Feng was lost in thought, vaguely sensing that the Sea God’s disappearance might truly be related to the Storm God, and even to the Evil God’s pollution.

Just as he was about to inquire further into other secrets.

"Hmm?"

His perception moved, and he suddenly looked outside the palace.

Lei Long and Della, seeing this, were also stunned, instinctively looking towards the direction of the Coral Gate.

The seawater flowed invisibly, with a little sunlight penetrating the sea surface and spilling over.

Colorful sea fish swam back and forth, and fish and shrimp moved up and down amidst the red coral clumps.

In the center, the octopus giant beast was being tended to by several mermaids, its tentacles constantly wrapping around wine glasses and drinking sweet spring water.

Seemingly a harmonious scene.

But soon.

Crash!!

The water flow showed abnormal fluctuations, as if some kind of creature was approaching.

The sunlight spilling over from the sea surface gradually disappeared, with shadows slowly enveloping this palace.

"This is...."

Lei Long was puzzled, but Della’s pupils contracted.

"This... is the Fishman army!"

Buzz!!

A shadow approached, revealing an oddly shaped giant submarine ship.

It seemed as if built from merged reefs, with a dragon-like bow, flags fluttering.

It was hundreds of meters in size, with huge oar-like structures resembling fish fins on either side.

An invisible water curtain shrouded the deck, densely packed with mermen-like beings holding spears and sharp weapons, standing among them, gazing coldly.

"Sha!!"

Jia Ta awoke instantly, waving tentacles to look around warily.

Sensing something, the giant sea ship slowly decelerated, finally stopping a hundred meters above the coral groups and the palace.

"No wonder it could kill Youren and Blood Sea."

"It turns out to be an Ocean Dominator..."

A vast shadow enveloped the palace, a voice full of surprise echoed.

It was a figure wearing a gray-blue long coat, burly, with human-like arms and legs.

But looking upwards, was a gray-blue, shark-like ferocious fish head.

Three scar-like long gills distributed on each side, each fish tooth like triangular saw blades, was indeed a half-shark.

"It’s the Grey Shark Saint!"

Della rushed out of the palace, her face pale, recognizing at a glance this powerful saint of the Half-Shark Clan.

In addition, she saw another fishman behind him.

With crimson skin and crab-like in appearance, standing four meters tall.

His crab claws were exceptionally stout, seemingly able to destroy any solid object.

"And the Fire Crab Clan Leader... Wait, since when did he become a saint?"

"How could it be!!"

"Could it really be a god protecting the Fishman Clan?"

Many mermaids were at this moment plunged into despair, bewildered by the emergence of yet another Fishman Saint.

Jia Ta didn’t know the details, merely remained alert, issuing a warning sound.

Instantly, the surrounding sea beasts swam together, led by him, blocking in front of the palace.

"Oh?"

"Interesting, to think it can even command low-level sea beasts...."

The half-shark named Black Shark Saint’s eyes flashed with greed, with the intent to subdue.

But did not rush to act, he stood at the forefront of the deck, surrounded by numerous fishmen, overlooking Della hastily rushing out from the palace gate.

His eyes flashed, vaguely sensing a certain power within the palace was shielding his biological perception.

After pondering for a moment, his brow relaxed, he squinted and spoke.

"Now, I’ll give your Mermaid Clan a chance."

"Submit to my Half-Shark Clan, brand the mark and you can survive."

The cold voice echoed, Della’s face turned pale, full of reluctance.

Each Mermaid Warrior gritted their teeth, firmly gripping their weapons, exchanging determined glances, fully aware of the implications of branding the mark.

At that moment, seemingly seeing their intention to resist, the Black Shark Saint sneered disdainfully.

With a wave of his hand, all the fishman warriors on the deck held their spears, making a synchronized thumping sound.

A muffled explosion burst, strong killing intent condensed, forming circular ripples that wildly spread from the giant submarine ship.

Buzz!!

Invisible waves swept out, each Mermaid Warrior turned pale, intimidated by the severe aura and bloodthirstiness of the Fishman army.

"Do you see it."

"This is the gap between our two tribes."

Coldly speaking, the Black Shark Saint looked down on everything, having lost patience.

"I originally considered our past connections, only intending to make you slaves."

"But unfortunately, you seem to not treasure this...."

As he spoke, he waved his hand slightly.

With an imperceptible whisper behind him, the Fire Crab Saint with a giant shell glanced at the palace, nodded lightly, preparing to lead the Fishman army to slaughter.

But then.

In the next instant.

Tap tap!

A figure wearing a brown jacket briskly walked out of the palace.

The Black Shark Saint frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

It turned out to be a weak Fourth Rank human.

Sensing a general Spiritual wave, he flashed a look of dismissal, secretly thought he was being overcautious.

The Fire Crab Saint by his side also shook his head, mocking the mermaids below.

"A small Fourth Rank role."

"Della, is this the backbone of your rebellion?"

The thick voice was full of ridicule, but Della ignored it, instead hurriedly looking at Lei Long, as if grabbing the last straw.

"The Master said."

"Out of past friendship, he can intervene this time."

Spoke solemnly, Lei Long met her gaze, truthfully conveyed: "But regarding the grievances between your two tribes...."

"He only accepts the correct choice."

As the words landed, Della quickly looked towards the palace hall.

On the red-silver Coral Throne, the black-clothed young man sat calmly, meeting her gaze.

Aloof, profound... like a resurrected Angel of the World appearing before her.

In a trance, she suddenly comprehended Lei Long’s meaning.

A one-time intervention, or a permanent protection.

This required her, the only remaining Elder, forced into the final Clan Leader, to make a decision for the Mermaid Clan.

"Master!!"

Suddenly, all hesitation and reserve vanished.

Disregarding the teachings and rules left by the ancestors.

The fish tail curved, with all hesitation in Della’s eyes disappearing, immediately bowing, trembling as she made a decision.

"I swear in the name of the Mermaid Clan Leader!!"

"From today onwards, my Mermaid Clan will follow you unto death!"
