Beneath the shroud of a night-like darkness, the ocean surged and bellowed with a relentless and mighty force.

*Rooaar..* Followed in an inexplicable roar, a colossal creature emerged from the depths of the ocean.

Its body resembled that of a Whale, but it was covered in scales Its long and sharp fangs could be seen coming out of its mouth. It looked extremely ferocious and terrifying. What was even more frightening was that this colossal creature had a length exceeding a hundred meters.

A staggering hundred meters, which was about the length of a football field.

And now, a Mutant Sea Creature of that size was coming out of the sea.

*Roar…*

The Mutant Sea Creature let out another roar, tinged with excitement.

At the sight of the distant island enveloped in a snowstorm, the Mutant Whale’s eyes flickered an intelligent gleam.

The next moment, with a surge of Spiritual Energy, its huge tail slapped the sea, creating waves several tens of meters high with a deafening crash.

At a glance, it looked like a cascade of tsunamis.

Amidst this terrifying momentum, the Mutant Whale propelled its body and manipulated the towering tsunamis toward the distant arctic island.

“A Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Whale!?” Yu Zi Yu muttered with a hint of doubt as his gaze pierced through the snowstorm, and caught sight of the approaching tsunami.

Amidst the towering tsunamis, there was a giant shadow resembling a Whale.

*Heh…* Yu Zi Yu scoffed. [I just revealed an itsy bitsy bit of my aura, and a bunch of ‘formidable’ Sea Monsters have appeared. When the Elemental Flower matures and I don’t conceal its aura, that might really be a sight to see. Still, now’s not the time to consider these things.]

Surveying the arctic island, Yu Zi Yu discovered densely-packed waves surging from the horizon.

There were Mutant Whales, swimming over carrying tsunamis of terrific power and momentum.

There were Swordfish like creatures in the distance, slicing through the sea with an astonishing speed and momentum.

This was the great ocean…

Even if it was just a small part of it, it had formidable Mutant Sea Creatures lurking everywhere.

Be that as it may, there were only two or three Tier-2 Transcendents, most of these Mutant Sea Creatures were Tier-1 Transcendents.

Apparently, even in the vast ocean, crossing to Tier-2 was a significant challenge. In other words, a Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Sea Creature was powerful enough to dominate a part of the sea.

As for why there were no Tier-0 Transcendent Mutant Sea Creatures, apparently, the fearsome and ferocious auras of the Transcendent Sea Creatures, even if dispersed, were enough to disperse Tier-0 Transcendent Sea Creatures.

Not to mention the enormous Tier-2 Transcendent Whale, which was coming with such formidable momentum, creating towering tsunamis. Even some Tier-1 Transcendent Mutant Sea Creatures had to retreat before such fearsome force, let alone those Tier-0 Sea Creatures.

“Unfortunately, you’re not today’s main course.” With a playful smile, Yu Zi Yu surveyed the sea, a cold and sharp gleam flickering in his eyes.

With such formidable prey coming from the deep sea, how could he possibly be interested in these?

[So…]

“Freeze,” Yu Zi Yu whispered in his heart as his thousands of silver-white branches entwined together, transforming into a Dragon-like entity as it shot toward the tsunami caused by the Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Whale.

*Boom, boom, boom…*

Accompanied by a dreadful roar, countless silver-white branches entwined into a Dragon-like form constantly elongated, even reaching out of the snowstorm.

The next moment, they pierced into the tsunami with astonishing speed.

The next moment, the tsunami shook with a thunderous roar before it froze at a speed visible to the naked eyes.

In just a few breaths, almost half of the sea area was frozen, as if entering the Ice Age.

Even the sea water splashing in the air froze, leaving only glittering ice crystals falling from the sky.

At this moment, if one were to look into the depths of the frozen tsunami, they would see a huge crescent-shaped Whale completely frozen within the tsunami.

Elemental Attachment of Level 4 Mutant Branches—Extreme Ice, was sufficient to freeze almost half of the sea and turn it into an Ice Age. This was Yu Zi Yu’s current power. With just a simple move, he had suppressed a Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Whale.

Of course, it wasn’t just this Tier-2 Transcendent whale. The Mutant Sea Creatures approaching from the surrounding sea had mostly turned into ice sculptures.

However, as if sensing something, Yu Zi Yu squinted his eyes, looking in a direction.

The next moment, he caught sight of a black shadow rapidly shuttling through the frozen sea. Its shape was like a sharp sword, tearing everything in its path. What was even more terrifying was that as it continued to accelerate, the fearsome sharp aura surrounding it became even more daunting.

“A Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Swordfish?”

Swordfish, with its streamlined body and an upper jaw like a sword, was a type of fish with frightening speed.

The one in front of Yu Zi Yu was even more formidable, it happened to be a Tier-2 Transcendent.

It had a length of five meters and was as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it had crossed several kilometers and was heading straight for Yu Zi Yu.

“Interesting.” Yu Zi Yu smiled, attaching not that much attention to it.

Only, a crystallic Willow Leaf emerged from his tree body.

In terms of sharpness, his Flying Willow Leaf Blade wouldn’t lose to anyone. Even if it was just an ordinary willow leaf, it was enough.

Thinking of this, Yu Zi Yu manipulated the willow leaf, hovering it in the air for a while.

The next moment, as if receiving some command, the willow leaf trembled slightly.

Following that, it suddenly disappeared into the air.

And just a moment later…

*Roar…* A mournful shriek echoed across the sea. 

Looking up, the formidable Tier-2 Transcendent Swordfish had a bloody hole in its forehead.

If one looked through the bloody hole, one could faintly see the dark clouds in the sky behind it. The willow leaf shot through it in one go, killing it instantly.

While the crisp system prompt echoed in his ears, Yu Zi Yu drove the blood-stained willow leaf, turning it and flying in a different direction once again.

The fearsome might of the Flying Willow Leaf Blade was unquestionable!

As Yu Zi Yu’s ultimate weapon, his Innate Willow Leaf was more than capable of tearing through the barriers of space itself. Naturally, this ordinary willow leaf, infused with tens of thousands of Spiritual Energy, effortlessly slew a mere Tier-2 Transcendent Mutant Swordfish, which already possessed weak defenses.

…

However, this was not the time to be complacent because Yu Zi Yu could feel terrifying vibrations slowly rising from the depths of the sea.

Alongside them, the sky grew increasingly darker, and the world beneath began to distort.

*Crackle, crackle, crackle…*

Silver-white arcs streaked through the sky as lightning bolts as thick as water buckets struck down from time to time.

However, what was even more terrifying was that in the air, it seemed as if two forces were colliding.

*Boom, boom, boom…*

Deafening roars rang one after another as brilling electric arcs erupted at the horizon.

The next moment, the frozen sea, without any warning, began to quake, shattering into countless pieces.

The symbol of Tier-3, the Spiritual Fields, was engaged in an unprecedented collision.
