<h4>Chapter 681: Sea gue (Part 1)</h4>


    In this battle, he had used most of his bloodline abilities. It wasn’t that he desperately needed them to win, but his main objective in terms of cultivation right now was integrating all his abilities into a consistent whole, and that could only be done through fighting powerful opponents.


    Unfortunately, such powerful opponents were hard toe by, so he could not be happier about this fight. The pressure these two sea beasts brought was just right to help him refine his abilities. After all, the bloodline imprints had already been cultivated to their limit, but there was still room for improvement in terms of application and coordination of his abilities.


    Soon, he had recovered to his optimal state, so he retracted the aura of the Sea God’s Trident.


    The faith power from the Endless Blue Sea was very suitable for his cultivation, but it was best to wait until after his breakthrough.


    Without the aura of the Sea God’s Trident as a guide, the faith power naturally dissipated.


    The many sea beasts awoke as if from a dream. They actually seemed reluctant to part with this power, and they subconsciously looked at Tang San.


    The Sea Giant leader couldn''t help but ask, "What was this power you summoned just now?"


    "That was the power of faith. My aura can inspire reverence and worship among the creatures in the sea, thereby generating faith power. The Endless Blue Sea has countless beings, and as long as they sense my aura, they will offer me their faith. In return, I will give back to them, helping them evolve more effectively, creating a positive cycle. You must have felt some measure of bloodline purification just now, right?"


    The Sea Dragon leader nodded and said, "Indeed, it seems like my bloodline has been somewhat purified. You mentioned before that you could help our sea ns produce Emperors—was it through this method?"


    These two leaders unconsciously began to address Tang San with respect. This showed that strength was indeed the foundation of everything. Tang San''s stick and carrot—namely, the beating he’d administered and the kindness he’d shown afterward—made these two leaders subconsciously inclined to believe his words.


    Tang San nodded slightly. "You could say that, but it''s not the whole story. The main problem is that I haven''t gone through my tribtion yet. Once I do, I can bring you a true transformation—or rather, bring some changes to the entire Endless Blue Sea. I am well aware that something is wrong with the Endless Blue Sea. Otherwise, with such a vast area and so many resources, how could it be possible not to produce top-tier powerhouses? Your bloodline is very high-tier, but there''s something wrong with your bloodline power. It seems impure, as if... it has been tainted by something."


    The Sea Giant leader''s eyes suddenly revealed a look of urgency, "Can you solve the problem of our impure bloodlines?"


    @@novelbin@@


    "It''s hard to say; it depends on where the problem originates. And I''ll only be able to attempt it after my breakthrough to godhood."


    At that moment, the elder of the Sea Walrus n let out a cry ofment. "Sea gue. It''s the Sea gue that has affected our bloodlines."


    "Sea gue?" Tang San looked at it with some confusion. He understood the word, but he couldn’t remember anything like this from his past life.


    "It’s exactly what it sounds like, a scourge that taints the sea," the Sea Giant leader said bitterly. A hint of dread showed in its eyes. "The Sea gue is everywhere and nowhere. No one knows when the next outbreak will ur, but every time it does, countless sea beasts perish. Even the strongest ones, once infected, will fall ill. The Endless Blue Sea experiences multiple Sea gue outbreaks every year. Thergest ones can stretch over tens of thousands of miles.


    "What''s most terrifying is that we don''t know which n the Sea gue will target; it’s different almost every time. The impurity in our bloodlines, as you mentioned, is due to the fact that we have all been affected by the Sea gue to some degree. The stronger ns are fortunate; we have much higher resistance, so we are not as easily killed. However, many weaker ns facing the Sea gue might be wiped out entirely. Some have been wiped out already."


    At this point, the Sea Giant leader couldn''t help but close its eyes in pain. "In the Endless Blue Sea, there is even an area called the Tainted Yellow Sea, where the bodies of all sea creatures that died from the Sea gue are washed ashore. There is a kingdom of corpses there, home to many undead beings. It is also a ce of disaster. The leaders of our ns have made countless efforts over hundreds of years, but none have been able to solve the problem of the Sea gue. My lord, if you can help us rid ourselves of the Sea gue, then we will all believe that you are the guardian sent by the Sea God to watch over us."


    Tang San nodded and said in a deep voice, "This is the first time I''ve heard of this. If it''s possible, I will do everything in my power to help you solve this problem."


    The leaders all expressed joy. They felt something different from Tang San—a genuine sense of hope. If the Sea gue could be resolved, then there would truly be hope for the Endless Blue Sea.


    "Let''s have a discussion. You can tell me about the situation with the Sea gue, and I''ll exin the purpose of my visit," Tang San said.


    The Sea Giant leader nodded. "Alright."


    Tang San asked, "Shall we talk on the shore or in the sea?"


    "Let''s stay in the sea. Most of our n members cannot go ashore without facing various problems. Only a few, like the Sea Walrus n, can survive onnd, but even they must return to the sea after a while. If you don''t mind, please sit on my shoulder."


    Tang San nodded and was about to move to the Sea Giant''s shoulder when the Sea Dragon leader said, "Why go with that guy? You should ride on my back. Our Sea Dragons are thergest sea beasts in the Endless Blue Sea."


    The Sea Giant leader sneered. "That title belongs to the Sea Dragon King, andst time I checked, that wasn’t you. And who was it that I just knocked out earlier?"


    "You dare to bring that up? Did you fucking hit me on purpose?" raged the Sea Dragon leader.


    Tang San sighed helplessly. He wasn’t here to watch the two of them bicker. "Alright, you two, stop arguing. I''ll just fly. Let me first exin my intentions. I am human, as you can see, but I have indeed inherited the bloodline of the Sea God. Because of this, I possess certain unique abilities in the Endless Blue Sea. Over the years, I have been growing up on the Daemon Continent, and only recently, as my cultivation has advanced, did I decide toe to the Endless Blue Sea as I approach my tribtion. I would first like to ask you... How much do you know about the Daemon Continent?"


    The Sea Walrus elder said in a deep voice, "The Daemon Continent is a forbidden zone for our ns. There are many powerful beings there, including formidable Emperors. In the past, those Emperors even attempted to invade us. They only gave up after realizing the trouble caused by the Sea gue; I suppose they feared that it might spread to thend. But our sea ns cannot contend with them there. Those demons and nymphs are too powerful."


    Tang San said, "Yes, the demons and nymphs are powerful. Under their oppression, other races can only struggle to survive, and the human race is no exception. I am the heir of the Sea God, but I am also human. To ensure the survival of our people, I came here to find a suitable habitat for humans, to send some of them to the inds here, and allow them to avoid being destroyed by demons and nymphs. In other words, I came to find a ce like this ind. I wonder if your sea ns would allow humans to migrate and live on these sea inds."


    The leaders exchanged nces, none of them expecting Tang San to make such a request; they had originally thought that Tang San was here to take the lead of the sea ns.


    The Sea Walrus elder said, "There are many inds in the Endless Blue Sea; this archipgo is rtivelyrge, but there are even bigger ces. As the Sea Giant leader mentioned earlier, most of our sea ns are not suited for living onnd, so these inds aren''t significant to us. If humans were to migrate here, it probably wouldn''t affect us much.


    "But there are a few concerns: first, how will humans survive? Would they hunt sea beasts? Of course, we all eat fish, but those of us who are intelligent cannot be hunted. Otherwise, peaceful coexistence is impossible. Another issue is that humans would also face the Sea gue upon arrival. ording to our sea ns'' historical records, all species affected by the Sea gue suffer its consequences. Human bodies, as I recall, are quite fragile. If they were to encounter the Sea gue, it could be disastrous."
