Chapter 195 Lu Ming Kills the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, a Million-Year Soul Beast!
The Purple Pearl rose and fell violently amidst the turbulence.
Purple Pearl leaned on the railing, staring blankly at the rolling sea.
She couldn't see the battle underwater, but she could feel the earth-shattering energy fluctuations.
Every fluctuation that emanated from her caused her martial spirit to tremble.
Not long after.
The commotion on the sea gradually subsided.
A corpse as large as an island slowly rose to the surface of the water.
The Demonic Whale King of the Deep Sea, dies.
Above the enormous corpse, a dark reddish-gold spirit ring slowly condensed.
The spirit ring was frighteningly deep in color, with a faint golden luster, a sign that it was about to break through the million-year mark.
Lu Ming broke through the water and landed steadily on the whale carcass.
He sat cross-legged and began to draw upon the spirit ring.
For an ordinary Soul Master, absorbing a Soul Ring that is nearly a million years old is tantamount to suicide.
However, Lu Ming's physique, after being strengthened by the system and tempered by Wood Release, has already surpassed the limits of ordinary people.
Given that he had just absorbed the immense energy of Seagod Island, this spirit ring posed no challenge for him.
Time passed second by second.
Everyone on the Purple Pearl dared not breathe, for fear of disturbing the powerful cultivator's cultivation.
I don't know how much time passed.
Lu Ming slowly opened his eyes.
Two beams of light shot out from his eyes, piercing the air as if they were real.
Level 86!
Having absorbed the soul ring of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and with the insights gained from that previous battle, his soul power surged to the level of an 86th-level Soul Douluo.
And, just as he expected.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King not only contributed a Soul Ring, but also dropped a top-grade Soul Bone.
A piece of torso bone that was crystal clear and emitted a deep blue halo.
The torso of a 990,000-year-old deep-sea whale king!
The quality of this soul bone is several times higher than that of a typical 100,000-year soul bone, second only to divine equipment.
Lu Ming absorbed it without hesitation.
As the soul bone merged into his body, he felt as if his body had been reshaped.
All muscles, bones, and meridians become stronger.
This soul bone granted him two powerful soul skills, as well as a terrifying boost to his physical attributes.
After doing all this, Lu Ming stood up.
He glanced at the enormous whale carcass at his feet.
This is good stuff.
Every part of it is a treasure; its skin and flesh can be used to make armor, its oil can be used as fuel, and its brain is especially rare and precious tonic.
Lu Ming waved his hand, and the soul tool on his wrist shone brightly.
The mountain-sized corpse vanished instantly, absorbed into the enormous spatial soul tool gifted to him by the system.
The sea became empty again.
Only the dilapidated Purple Pearl remained, drifting alone.
Lu Ming lightly touched the sea surface with his toes, his figure rising gracefully and landing on the deck of the Purple Pearl.
"clatter."
The soft footsteps seemed to tread on everyone's hearts.
The pirates around him, who were usually ruthless killers, were now trembling with fear, not daring to even breathe, and all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at Lu Ming's face.
Purple Pearl took a deep breath, suppressing the shock and awe in her heart.
She straightened her slightly disheveled clothes and strode up to Lu Ming.
"thump."
Purple Pearl actually knelt down on one knee and clasped her hands in a fist salute.
"Purple Pearl greets Your Excellency!"
"Thank you so much for saving our lives, sir! If it weren't for your help, the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang would have been wiped out today."
Purple Pearl's voice was still trembling slightly.
What she just witnessed had a tremendous impact on her.
The deep-sea demon whale king that had driven her to despair couldn't even hold out for a quarter of an hour in the hands of this young man.
What terrifying power this is!
Even the descent of the sea god couldn't be more impressive, could it?
Lu Ming glanced at her, his tone indifferent.
"Get up."
"It was just something I did on the spur of the moment; I was only doing it for that spirit ring."
Lu Ming wasn't lying; rescuing the person was indeed just a side effect.
Purple Pearl stood up, and only then did she dare to take a closer look at Lu Ming.
Although she wore a mask, the exposed jawline was beautiful and resolute, and her eyes were as deep as the starry sky.
Coupled with that overwhelming aura, Purple Pearl felt her heart beating faster than she could control.
She had been adrift at sea for so many years and had seen countless men.
But compared to the person in front of them, those so-called strongmen and nobles are simply trash.
This is a real man.
A true strongman.
"Regardless of the adults' purpose, the fact remains that they saved us."
A fiery glint flashed in Purple Pearl's wild eyes.
She is a straightforward woman, and also a woman who admires strength.
On this vast ocean, the strong possess everything.
"My lord, I have no way to repay Purple Pearl."
Purple Pearl took a step forward, getting extremely close to Lu Ming, and he could even smell the scent on her body that was a mixture of sea breeze and faint fragrance.
She lowered her head slightly, her voice becoming somewhat soft and alluring.
"Everything on this ship belongs to adults."
"Including Purple Pearl herself."
"If you, my lord, do not find Purple Pearl's appearance too unattractive, tonight... Purple Pearl is willing to serve you in bed, even if it is just as a maid serving tea and water, Purple Pearl would be willing."
The pirates around them nearly popped their eyes out.
When has my own infamous, ruthless boss ever shown such a girlish side?
Lu Ming looked at the hot and charming female pirate in front of him.
Purple pearls are indeed very delicious.
The wild beauty unique to women who live at sea for a long time is something that women from inland areas do not possess.
But Lu Ming is not lacking in women.
Whether it's Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, or Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue in the group, aren't they all stunning beauties?
He's not so desperate as to accept any beautiful woman as a date.
Lu Ming took half a step back, creating some distance between them.
"No need."
"I have other matters to attend to and cannot stay any longer."
Lu Ming's voice was cold and clear, without any hint of romance.
"It's not far from the mainland, you can go back on your own."
After saying that, Lu Ming did not give Zi Zhenzhu a chance to speak again.
He turned around, and the Trident of Poseidon twirled in his hand.
"They're gone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ming soared into the sky, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Only Purple Pearl was left standing on the deck, staring blankly at that figure from behind.
The sea breeze tousled her hair.
The fiery passion in Purple Pearl's eyes gradually cooled, replaced by a deep sense of loss.
She bit her lip, a self-deprecating bitter smile appearing on her face.
"Too..."
"They are dragons from the heavens, how could they possibly be interested in a mudfish like me from the sea?"
Purple Pearl knew very well what was going on.
Although she reigns supreme in this sea area, in that lord's eyes, she's probably not even a passerby.
That fleeting moment of ambiguity was nothing more than wishful thinking on her part.
"Big Sister..."
A deputy cautiously approached, "Has that lord left?"
