A huge storm; the boom of thunder.

The lonely voyage squadron that lacked help seemed like a weak chicken, shivering under the might of the heavens. Even the courageous Little Green was so scared that he returned to the deck, as the torrential rain pelted down like a waterfall.

As for sinking, that was temporarily not a problem. Their ships all used advanced water ight technology, so the current rainwater was not enough to capsize them.

There was a common phrase, ‘Misfortune never comes alone.’

The true test for the voyage squadron was still to come.

In the rain, amidst the choppy waters, hundreds of tentacles suddenly rose up. Each limb was as thick as a waist.

Their massive suction cups were clearly visible and seemed like giant meat plates.

"Octopus monster!" Ouyang Shuo's eyes froze.

Based on rough estimations, there were no less than ten.

"These octopus monsters really came at the wrong time!" Ouyang Shuo muttered. It only hit him when he saw that one of them had a clear wound.

This monster was the one that they had met in the fog. It seemed like it came for revenge, and it had brought its friends.

"So petty!"

Ouyang Shuo really did not know how this octopus beast had tracked down Dragon Head. How did it manage to calmly wait until a storm arrived before attacking?

Such sentience was truly remarkable.

Under such circumstances, Ouyang Shuo did not have much time to think.

Just one of these beasts was able to make the Dragon Head fall into a terrible shape, much less ten. Under such a weather, the entire squadron was going to face a strict test.

In a short moment, hundreds of men were swept into the ocean; thunder drowned out their cries.

Death was just so quick.

"Little Green!"

Ouyang Shuo unsheathed his Chixiao Sword and called for Little Green at the same time.

Ao!!

When Little Green heard his beckon, it roared and advanced, instantly displaying the skills of a spirit beast. It ignored the thunder and directly charged into the ocean, disappearing from sight.

It seemed like he had gone down to fight with the octopus monsters.

Ouyang Shuo raised his sword, as he stood on the deck and started another round of merciless killing. He bisected tentacles one after another, and the chopped off limbs bounced on the deck.

However, there were really too many of them.

Ouyang Shuo alone was not enough.

Moreover, the storm grew worse and worse as time went on, exacerbating the situation. Even a massive turreted boat like Dragon Head started to rock.

Under such circumstances, not to mention the basic soldiers, even the Divine Martial Guards found it difficult to gain a stable footing. Furthermore, they had to dodge the large tentacles that were everywhere.

"Chen Dameng!" Ouyang Shuo hollered, "Bring the sailers back to the cabin!" Ouyang Shuo knew that without them, the warships were just useless wood.

Hence, no matter what, he needed to preserve their lives.

"Yes, my Lord!"

The Divine Martial Guards rushed over, chasing after the sailors who were scared to the point where their knees were shaking. Along the way, numerous tentacles swept down. Some of the Divine Martial Guards were not careful and were knocked into the ocean.

All of a sudden, chaos ensued.

Despite such a crazy storm, they were still able to continue fighting, proving that they were true elites. Not only were their skills astonishing, their mental strength was astounding too, and they all remained extremely calm. Only Chen Dameng and the others could analyze the surroundings and listen through all this noise.

Along with the strikes, the first few octopuses acted like they had found the killer, and they all shrieked and directed their friends to attack Ouyang Shuo.

Instantly, more than ten tentacles smacked down toward him at the same time. The massive tentacles covered everything like a giant fleshy cage; there was nowhere to go.

Even if Ouyang Shuo was valiant, there was nothing he could do.

Peng!

Thanks to a lapse in concentration, Ouyang Shuo was finally swept by a tentacle. He could feel a powerful force spreading from his back, through his organs, and into his chest.

"Cough!"

If Ouyang Shuo did not possess a strong body, that single strike would have been enough to inflict heavy damage. Ouyang Shuo shook it off and stood up once more.

At the same time, more tentacles smacked down toward him. It was like they were determined to squash him into meat paste.

"Lord!"

When Chen Dameng and the others saw the situation, their faces turned ashen white, and they risked their lives to help.

"Damn beast."

Ouyang Shuo rolled and avoided the attack; his eyes turned cold, and he stowed away his Chixiao Sword, taking out the Tianmo Spear.

In moments of chaos, the Chixiao Sword was actually more useful. However, it did not have an ultimate skill. Hence, Ouyang Shuo had no choice but to make use of the recently upgraded Tianmo Spear.

With the spear in hand, Ouyang Shuo's entire aura changed; it was like the devil had appeared.

An aura of might and arrogance burst forth.

Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate; he directly used the killing technique of the Tianmo Spear.

"Blood Domination!"

As Ouyang Shuo shouted, the golden primordial energy in his body clipped onto the devil bloodline, injecting his aura into the spear. Due to this influx of power, the spear emitted an eye catching black glow.

Primordial energy continued to flow in.

The Tianmo Spear was like an abyss, unable to be filled up.

When Ouyang Shuo saw this situation, his expression turned unprecedentedly solemn.

Ever since the Tianmo Spear had upgraded and the Blood Domination Skill was born, this was the first time that he had used it. He did not expect the requirements to be so strict.

A minute had passed, but it was like a century to Ouyang Shuo. 60% of his primordial energy was sucked up before the spear was ‘full’.

During this time, he could not move, so Ouyang Shuo was smacked thrice by the tentacles. Under these hits, Ouyang Shuo could not help but bellow and spit out a mouthful of blood.

The blood was like an assist from the heavens, as it splattered onto the spear and got absorbed.

At this point, the black glow grew more abundant and eye catching.

Even in the storm, this black light was the most eye catching presence. Even those massive tentacles, which had innate senses, felt a shiver; they did not dare to approach him.

However, it was already too late to retreat.

The black glow and Ouyang Shuo were determined to go forward. He stabbed his spear forward and the light exploded forth, forming a black circle. That circle quickly expanded and anything that touched it was melted and broken into two.

That's right, melted.

The black light was like a corrosive acid, melting everything in its path.

Ge gua~

When the octopus monster was hit, it let out ear piercing screeches; it was in deep pain.

With just this strike, Ouyang Shuo had cleared out all the nearby tentacles. On the wet deck, there were many cleaven tentacles, creating a truly stunning sight.

The entire earth fell totally quiet.

In the huge storm, Ouyang Shuo was like a devil, standing still on the deck. Tentacles around him still squirmed, becoming the sacrifices to the devil.

At this very moment, Little Green jumped out of the water, the brain of one of the octopus in its mouth.

In the rain, one man and one beast laughed at one another.

Just when Ouyang Shuo thought that this battle was about to end, an immensely deafening screech sounded out in the distance. Among the sadness, there was an endless amount of rage.

Those injured octopus monsters were planning to retreat, but they became excited upon hearing that shout. They cried back; their voices filled with reliance. They seemed like a bunch of kids going to bully others but got hit instead. Now, their family members had finally arrived.

When Ouyang Shuo saw this situation, he was scared speechless.

Suddenly, he saw two huge tentacles rise up into the sky, reaching fifty odd meters high, exceeding the height of Dragon Head.

A shadow hung overhead, as the huge tentacles covered the sky.

"This is bad!" Ouyang Shuo gave out a bitter smile.

During the five years of his last life, Ouyang Shuo had never seen such a huge octopus monster.

Ouyang Shuo had only heard that in the deep oceans, there were mysterious prehistoric beasts. Each one of them were overlords of the ocean, and they could cause chaos if they desired.

Some rumours even said that the god dragon from China lived in the deep oceans and some of the deep ocean beasts could contend with it.

Ouyang Shuo did not know whether those tales were true or false, but it was enough to prove how terrifying the deep ocean beasts were.

Although the octopus before him was unable to compare with those existences, it was still close to invincible at this stage.

"What!" When he successfully found the treasure, Ouyang Shuo had thought that his luck stat was finally shining on him. Who knew misfortune would always hang around.

An unassuming octopus monster had actually caused such a change.

The killing move of the Tianmo Spear had been used, and it was now on its cooldown period. What could he use to fight this terrifying presence?

But Ouyang Shuo had to fight. He could not allow the voyage squadron to fall here.

"Then let's fight!" Ouyang Shuo was determined, "Little Green!"

Ao!

Little Green replied with an unspeakable arrogance.

"Good boy." Ouyang Shuo suddenly smiled and jumped onto Little Green, "Let us teach it a lesson!"
