It wasn't just a giant whale; if there were ability users, they would absolutely see several people on the whale's back.
Seeing this scene, almost everyone lost their will to survive.
"It seems there's no point in struggling. A hundred-meter-high tidal wave is a situation that could only occur during periods of intense geological activity in extremely ancient times. I truly wonder what people back then would have thought if they saw what we are seeing now."
The prematurely bald man, from whose hand he got a cigarette, trembled like an addict, his eyes completely filled with fear.
The so-called saviors, they could only think of one possibility: God!
Therefore, except for Xiao Yue and others, almost everyone began to prostrate themselves on the ground, muttering incoherently and tremblingly.
Ya Feier sneered, "These people are truly laughable. They don't worship gods in their free time, but now they are all acting like devout followers, trying to gain divine protection. Is that possible?"
"It is indeed a luxury..."
Before Xiao Yue could finish speaking, the shimmering seawater grew closer and closer. The sound of the seawater, like rumbling thunder, continuously crashed against the major buildings. Before long, the nearly hundred-meter-high wave struck them head-on!
"It's over, we're going to die here!"
"God, please have mercy, pity us."
However, these useless prayers could not awaken the slumbering gods, nor the ethereal deities. But just as everyone turned pale with disappointment, a gust of wind suddenly descended from the sky!
A man in black appeared within the wind. With a wave of his large hand, the wave was swiftly cleaved in two and withered away!
What kind of power was this!
Everyone rejoiced, but before their cheers could fully rise, another giant wave surged up. It stopped as it reached almost the same height as the rooftop. Only then did everyone clearly see that there was indeed a giant whale within the wave. A man stood on the whale, with his hands behind his back. He looked fierce, and his eyes had barely moved from the man who had just descended from the sky.
"You've finally appeared, Ren Yuanhao!"
Zhang Liang gritted his teeth, suddenly letting out a hysterical laugh.
"How about it! Watching your woman trapped in a cage by me, doesn't it feel like a lifetime ago?"
Ya Feier, feeling the aura emanating from Ren Yuanhao, murmured, "Yuanhao? Is it really you?"
"Of course it's me. Be careful, I told you, as long as I'm alive, I will appear before you at any time. I, Ren Yuanhao, keep my word."
Ren Yuanhao dispelled the wind缠绕 around him. Everyone cowered and hid behind him. This was not a battlefield they could interfere with; hiding was the only thing they could do.
"After all this time, haven't you understood one thing? Affection and bonds are trash that can be discarded. The domain of gods does not allow so many distractions."
Zhang Liang grinned sinisterly and tightened the chain around Shen Lan Ni's neck from a distance. Shen Lan Ni's face turned pale, and she let out a difficult cough.
"Try moving her again! I can cut off one of your arms, and then the other. If you don't believe me, just try it!"
Zhang Liang looked at his mechanical arm, a flicker of complexity in his eyes. "Actually, sometimes I wonder if you harmed me or completed me. This kind of thing can only be known at the end," he pointed to the submerged city behind him and sneered, "I never thought I could cause such a commotion with my own strength. So, before I make a move against you, I should thank you properly."
"Speak, you lured me here, surely not just for revenge? People like you, I believe, wouldn't be so rash."
Ren Yuanhao was exceptionally calm. He knew one thing: Zhang Liang, through some fortuitous encounter, had obtained a water element origin core, which was why his strength had advanced so rapidly.
And his methods were always cunning. Manipulating the seawater to flood Dong Lu was not as easy as it seemed. It required mobilizing and consuming a large amount of true qi. Zhang Liang would never do something so foolish.
"Ren Yuanhao, they say enemies understand each other the best. You guessed right, I didn't put in so much effort just for revenge. However, you don't need to know the result immediately, because the show has just begun!"
As soon as Zhang Liang finished speaking, he leaped from the giant whale. The whale returned to the surface at extreme speed. Ren Yuanhao tried to stop him but was blocked by the waves Zhang Liang stirred up.
"Want to save her? That depends on whether you have the ability!"
"Want to stop me? That also depends on whether you have the ability!"
Ren Yuanhao channeled his true qi, and the temperature in front of him instantly froze. The ice element ability, infinitely close to S-class, immediately froze the seawater Zhang Liang had conjured into ice. If Zhang Liang hadn't dodged quickly enough, he might have been frozen solid as well.
"Not bad, ice element ability. Unfortunately, it's just a branch of the origin. Wielding a saber before Duke Guan is seeking death!"
Before Zhang Liang's words fell, the ice instantly melted and twisted out like a water dragon biting. Ren Yuanhao glanced at the devastated city and, not intending to get entangled with him, directly drew the ferocious sword Fen Chuan!
With a flick of his sword, the sharp gleam directly broke through Zhang Liang's water dragon and aimed straight for his chest. But at this moment, Zhang Liang completely submerged himself in the seawater. No matter how overbearing the ferocious sword was, it seemed somewhat powerless against the supremely gentle water.
"The number one ferocious sword in the world? Ren Yuanhao, I must admire your luck. But do you think you're the only one with such fortune?"
As soon as his voice fell, he transformed into a body of water, assimilating with the seawater, easily transferring himself to any area enveloped by water. Ren Yuanhao was stunned for a full two seconds before he discovered the opponent's whereabouts.
He followed the tail of the giant whale, and the whale was heading towards a large memorial hall in the central part of Dong Lu City.
"What's strange about that place?"
Ren Yuanhao pointed to the memorial hall. Xiao Yue frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "That is the Sea God Temple, which has been passed down in our Dong Lu City for thousands of years. It has stood in that location ever since Dong Lu City was established."
"Sea God Temple?" Ren Yuanhao frowned slightly, still unable to figure out what Zhang Liang was trying to do.
Just then, an older man chimed in, "It is said that the Sea God Temple enshrines the Sea God's weapon, and legend has it..."
Upon hearing the word "weapon," Ren Yuanhao instantly understood Zhang Liang's plan. Perhaps he was trying to unseal a sharp weapon similar to a ferocious sword, which was why he wasn't confronting him directly.
"Alright, you all stay here safely. I'll go settle that guy."
Ren Yuanhao rode the wind, stepping through the void.
"Holy crap, is this something a human can do?"
"It's not an exaggeration to call him a god!"
"Is this person your friend?"
