In the depths of the North Pole, there lay the Arctic Ocean, where waves after waves crashed against towering icebergs, and howling north wind blew so cold that they effortlessly froze the splashing waves.
And this was the Arctic Ocean, one of the coldest corners of the seas.
However, at this moment, accompanied by heavy footsteps, a pathway visible to the naked eye extended across the Arctic Ocean.
Upon closer inspection, one could make out a chubby figure wearing a bamboo hat walking leisurely across the surface of the sea. Each step he took, the ocean underneath his feet would freeze.
At a glance, there was an indescribable elegance about him, with a rare hint of solitude within it.
*Haaa…* Heaving a sigh, Brewmaster couldn’t help but cry out loud, taking another sip of Spirit Wine to warm his body, “If I had known, I wouldn’t have taken this task.”
While mournfully voicing his complaint, Brewmaster suddenly stopped and glanced at the endless Arctic Ocean, before nodding to himself. “This should be the place.”
Saying so, he fiercely raised his foot and slammed it hard, causing the entire ocean to shake with a boom.
Immediately after, a wave of immensely cold aura swept in all directions, freezing the entire ocean at a speed visible to the naked eyes.
Shortly after that, as if noticing the sudden change…
*Whoooaooaooaoo…* A long and majestic song suddenly erupted from the depths of the ocean.
*Hissss, hissss…* Followed by a series of loud and shrill hisses, that seemed to be filled with joy, resounding through the sky.
After a moment, in the delighted gaze of Brewmaster, shattering the ice instantly, two huge shadows emerged from the depths of the ocean, one after another.
One figure had its entire jaws lined with long and sharp fangs emanating an inexplicable chill, appearing so ferocious that they gave the impression that they could tear through the very sky.
It was none other Whalefall, the most fearsome ruler of the depths of the Arctic Ocean, and of the rare Tier-3 Transcendents, he was in the Realm of Sovereign. With his strength alone, he led the Orca Clan to subdue nearly half of the Arctic Ocean.
On the other side, amidst continuous cracking of the ice, a truly terrifying figure appeared in Brewmaster’s line of sight, drawing his admiration.
*Hisss…* With a sudden ‘hiss’, a head as thick as a water bucket and as long as a hundred meters emerged from the ocean, breaking the ice.
It was the Serpent’s head, covered in dark green scales that shimmered with a faint gleam under the sunlight. Its eyes were red as blood and gleaming like lanterns, filled with nothing but ferocity and cruelty.
However, before Brewmaster could examine this Serpent head further, sounds of ice cracking erupted again and again as Serpent heads emerged successively from the ocean, a total of five heads, each one extremely ferocious.
This giant Serpent was none other than Slytherin, one of three deformed Mutant Beasts of the Misty Mountains with the most amazing Innate Talent.
If Auris reached his current level due to inheritance and Lupin gained extraordinary strength through Yu Zi Yu’s care, then Slytherin was a monster who, following Whalefall, had paved his own way using mountains of corpses.
He was even more notorious than Whalefall, and received many monikers for himself, like the Undead Monster, or the Sea Serpent.
Each moniker told the tales of the extraordinary and terrifying nature of this ferocious beast.
More importantly, he also happened to be in the Realm of Sovereign.
In light of this, one couldn’t deny that the sea was truly a paradise with no shortage of resources. And thanks to this, growth was always faster here than on the continent.
If not for the fact that these deep-sea behemoths would have their strength dropped down by a level upon exiting the sea, a second global invasion of Sea Creatures would have occurred a long time ago already.
At this moment…
*Haaaa…* Taking a deep breath, Brewmaster glanced at the excitedly swaying Great Serpent not far away, and the calm and collected Whalefall in the distance, and directly stated his reason for coming here, “Three days ago, the Council of Kings was convened, in which, we Nine Great Beasts, and even the various Generals unanimously agreed that Misty Mountains will declare war on the Sea Clan…”
Hearing this, both Slytherin and Whalefall were both taken aback.
“Declare war?” Perplexed, Whalefall cried in astonishment.
“Yes, declare war. The Sea Clan intended to destroy Misty Mountains. It’s a crime that cannot go unpunished, so war is inevitable.”
At this point, Brewmaster cast a deep gaze at Whalefall and reminded, “If a war breaks out, your Orca Clan will undoubtedly be the vanguard…”
“Yes.” Whalefall nodded his understanding.
Whalefall naturally knew about some of the actions of the Seven Great Sea Clans.
Although Misty Mountains were far away, intelligence was still exchanged frequently.
Days ago, Whalefall had already learned about the actions of the Fishmen King, Milton, attacking the Great Beasts, and he believed that this would thoroughly anger the entire Misty Mountain.
Thinking of this, Whalefall sneered inwardly. [They have yet to settle the matters of the deep sea, and yet he dares to invade the land and even provoke Misty Mountains. I have to admit that Milton’s brain is ‘exceptional’. He implicated the entire Fishmen Clan, which resulted in the Divine Tree venting his anger on the Fishmen Capital, destroying it and killing a massive number of Fishmen in a single blow.]
[Even so, that is still not the biggest issue here. The biggest issue is that the deep sea is not under one rule. While the Seven Sea Clans are united and have even established kingdoms, it came at the cost of much bloodshed. There are many groups who harbor deep hatred towards them, openly and secretly. It is unfortunate that thanks to their inheritance, they are indeed powerful, and the Kings of the Seven Deep Sea Clans support each other. Nonetheless, their vast territory was ultimately obtained by force, and they have yet to truly manage it.]
[With the Fishmen Clan suffering massive casualties, there are many groups that are thinking of rebelling. Furthermore, even though the Seven Deep Sea Clans are strong, the other Marine Races aren’t that weak either. There are even some ancient existences that are not inferior to the Kings of Seven Deep Sea Clans. However, compared to the unity of the Seven Clans of the Deep Sea, most other races are scattered, which allowed the Seven Clans to rule the deep sea.]
[If what Old Ninth said is true, Misty Mountains will truly be declaring war on the Seven Clans of the Deep Sea. I’m afraid it would set the oceans on fire. It might even truly shake the rule of the Seven Clans of the Deep Sea. After all, with the Divine Tree backing Misty Mountains, it’s enough to make the entire deep sea tremble.]
Thinking of this, Whalefall couldn’t help but sneered, “If we really declare war on the Seven Clans of the Deep Sea, I believe there will be many old friends joining us…”
“I see…” Brewmaster naturally understood what he meant. [The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Without the entire Deep Sea united, the Seven Clans must have many enemies. And if all these enemies emerged together, even the Seven Clans would be in big trouble. And this is just the beginning, because Misty Mountains, no, the Divine Tree’s plan for the entire deep sea has only just revealed the tip of the iceberg.]
