The Demon Empress pleaded bitterly, her voice choked with sobs, her eyes filled with endless sorrow and anxiety.
Although her tribe bore the indelible sin of slaughter, and her husband, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, harbored the ambition to devour all living creatures in the ocean and ascend to a God Position, these facts could not be denied.
However, none of this changed the Demon Empress’s deep love for her husband; she remained incredibly anxious and heartbroken for his life.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, this once incomparably powerful existence, had severely disrupted the ecological balance of the entire ocean due to his excessive consumption of marine life.
Marine life perished under his wake, and this Deep Sea Demon Whale King had gained immense power because of it, even threatening the peace of the entire ocean.
Yet, the Demon Empress knew best that the only conscience the Deep Sea Demon Whale King still possessed was likely his deep affection for her and their daughter.
Therefore, she was willing to pay any price for this, even her own life.
Just to save her husband.
“No, my power cannot control the Mortal World.
If he were merely biting, I might be able to intervene and stop him, but he swallowed the Mortal World into his own belly…” After the Sea Princess finished translating Godzilla’s words, the Demon Empress’s Face turned instantly pale, and her eyes revealed unspeakable pain.
“A small amount of the Mortal World can indeed accelerate a creature’s evolution, but by swallowing such a massive quantity of the Mortal World all at once, his evolution speed is too fast, leading to the collapse of his body.
This is a projection of the Universe’s Origin power; even if a God King descended to the World, they could not save him.” The Sea Princess’s voice was low, conveying an irreversible fact.
After hearing these words, the Demon Empress felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She finally understood why her husband had always been so cautious.
So, that Ocean Holy Beast had not attacked her husband.
It was her husband who had devoured that mysterious flesh, and the energy contained within that flesh was enough to cause the Deep Sea Demon Whale King—a powerful creature that lived by devouring—to Face the collapse of his body.
Suddenly, the Demon Empress’s thoughts returned to that ethereal legend on the ocean.
The Sinner of the Sea, Poseidon, waged war everywhere for his own selfish desires, ultimately causing the various ocean tribes to live in misery.
Until the Ocean Holy Beast appeared, eliminated Poseidon, and restored peace to the ocean.
Could all of this be Heaven’s punishment for her tribe?
She could not help but question whether this was fate’s retribution against them.
Her gaze gradually drifted, her heart filled with endless grief and confusion.
“Big guy, if it can increase your power, can you save my dad?” Lan Fozi asked with a sobbing tone, her voice trembling.
Her eyes were filled with a desperate light; it was the longing for power of a helpless child.
Godzilla shook his head.
“My tail was devoured, and my body has lost over thirty percent of its energy.
To recover to the level required to save him, the energy needed is an astronomical figure.
It is impossible to evolve to the next stage.” The Sea Princess translated these words to everyone, and the atmosphere instantly froze.
The Demon Empress’s Face turned even paler, as if she had been completely swallowed by despair.
A flash of determination crossed her eyes, and she knelt on the ground, her voice choked with sobs: “I can sacrifice myself to you, please, save him!” Hearing the Demon Empress’s plea, the members of the Deep Sea Demon Whale tribe fell into silence for a moment.
But soon, several brave clansmen stepped forward, their voices steady yet filled with determination: “I will save the Clan Chief!” “And me!” Another Deep Sea Demon Whale followed closely, their voice like thunder, unwavering.
“Without the protection of the Clan Chief, our Deep Sea Demon Whale tribe would have been slaughtered by Poseidon two thousand years ago!” A dozen elderly Deep Sea Demon Whales responded in unison, their voices filled with deep sorrow.
“No matter what, we must not give up.” One of the older Deep Sea Demon Whales whispered, a deep indignation showing in their eyes, “The Clan Chief has sacrificed too much for our tribe; how can we abandon him at this time?” Hearing these words, the Demon Empress’s inner pain was not alleviated by the support of her clansmen; instead, it made her realize even more profoundly the difficulty and helplessness of it all.
However, she knew that at this juncture, any retreat or avoidance was meaningless.
She had to do her best, even if it meant sacrificing her own life, to save her husband.
“Thank you all,” the Demon Empress whispered, a flash of gratitude and determination in her eyes, “We will never give up, even if we have to pay everything.” Seeing this, Godzilla also secretly pondered.
Usually, a Deep Sea Demon Whale at the hundred-thousand-year level can reach a cultivation of two to three hundred thousand years.
Replenishing the lost thirty percent of energy should be enough to evolve to the next level; this is much faster than hunting on Sea God Island or getting Spirit Bone compensation from the Spirit Hall!
Forget it, considering all this energy and the Little Whale, letting it bite my tail is fine.
I, Godzilla, have a compassionate beast heart, so I forgive you.
Wait!
Don’t translate this part!
Godzilla opened his mouth and let out a low roar at the Sea Princess.
“Ahem,” the Sea Princess instantly understood Godzilla’s meaning, “For the sake of your daughter, Lord Sea God has agreed.” “Many thanks to the Sea Princess for conveying this; our family will definitely repay the losses caused by this attack…” The Demon Empress thanked the Sea Princess gratefully.
Her voice carried a hint of sobbing, clearly conflicted about the progress of the situation.
The Sea Princess nodded indifferently, her expression unchanged.
She did not expect much gratitude.
After all, the ocean is a cruel World, where the weak are prey to the strong; there are almost no emotions to dwell on between life and death.
Even for a high-level Spirit Beast, though they have developed intelligence, their view of life, death, and hatred is not necessarily deeper than that of ordinary creatures.
Even someone as strong as her, with a cultivation reaching six hundred thousand, never expected that one day she would become a target for the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
If the Ocean Holy Beast hadn’t appeared in time, her Mermaid Tribe would likely have already been buried in this icy sea.
Thanks to the intervention of the Sacred Beast, the most precious golden Bloodline in the tribe was preserved, saving the Mermaid Tribe from the brink of extinction.
The Demon Empress sighed softly, her inner sorrow not having dissipated.
She lowered her head, a flash of complex emotions crossing her eyes.
Suddenly, the Demon Empress let out a low whale call, commanding the members of the Deep Sea Demon Whale tribe to stop attacking.
Her voice echoed on the seabed like thunder, and immediately, the group of Demon Whales surrounding the Demon Whale King began to sacrifice themselves without hesitation.
Bright red light permeated the seawater, and the Demon Whales one by one refined their flesh and cultivation into spirit rings, offering them to Godzilla.
One, two, three…
Not long after, a dozen hundred-thousand-year spirit rings suddenly appeared in the deep sea, and carrying shocking power, they were all devoured by Godzilla.
Only a low explosion sound was heard echoing in the ocean.
Then, countless red arcs of electricity erupted from Godzilla’s back, and his eyes were also covered with a layer of enchanting red radiance.
