The Ocean Crown’s army quickly moved into action. Their extensive experience in long-term battles and coordination allowed them to execute the command with precision. The Naga Legion, Dragonblood Legion, and Crab Guardians formed an outer defense, while the Silver Sea Pixies, Water Nymph Archers, and others formed an inner circle. At the center of it all stood Ji Chen and a group of heroes.

Ji Chen glanced at the divine weapon not far away and spoke in a deep voice, “Give it your all and buy me some time.”

Alice and the other heroes nodded solemnly.

Anina led the charge, her Tier 5,1-star Aquatic Deviant Ghost appearing fragile in her hands as she effortlessly dispatched numerous foes, shattering them with each swing.

Herald was even more brutal, hurling lightning orbs that annihilated hundreds of Aquatic Deviant Ghosts. His massive claws acted like the sharpest of swords, creating a bloody storm.

Benbo, Alice, and the rest showcased their formidable combat abilities as well. The imposing presence of the heroes and the army stabilized the situation.

Seeing that his heroes and troops had the situation under control, Ji Chen let out a sigh of relief and turned to approach the colossal divine weapon.

When he reached a distance of fifty meters, an overwhelming pressure suddenly descended upon him. It felt as if he were carrying a massive boulder on his back, instantly pinning him to the seabed.

His feet sank deep into the muck.

Ji Chen clenched his teeth and unleashed the power of the Tidal Dominator.

The Tide Domain expanded rapidly, reducing the pressure from the surrounding seawater.

Although the pressure remained immense, it was bearable.

He freed his legs from the muck and took one step at a time toward his destination.

With each step, he sank back into the muck, and the pressure on his shoulders increased.

When he was just twenty-five meters away, despite his best efforts to use the power of his domain, he found it increasingly difficult to withstand the pressure exerted by the divine weapon. He spat out a mouthful of blood and half-kneeled on the seabed.

His vision darkened, and his consciousness began to blur.

Just as Ji Chen was about to be completely engulfed by darkness, something deep within him seemed to be triggered.

“Ding! Your hidden Ocean Bloodline has come into effect.”

A warm current surged through his body, gradually awakening him. He was still facing the colossal divine weapon, but the pressure on his shoulders had vanished.

It seemed that the pressure from the first twenty-five meters was merely a test for him.

After a brief pause, Ji Chen gritted his teeth and stood up, continuing to move forward.

He staggered forward, step by step, until he finally reached the enormous divine weapon, which was now within arm’s reach.

With his right hand outstretched to touch it, his surroundings suddenly turned white, and he felt as if his body and soul were being drawn into a pure white world.

In this white expanse, shades of deep blue began to appear, and Ji Chen caught a faint scent of the sea.

In just a moment of daze, he found himself standing in the boundless ocean, with his feet on the water’s surface but not sinking.

In the distance, a giant figure connected the heavens and the earth. The clouds and mist in the sky only reached its chest, concealing its true appearance above.

But it was not just that; this specific, mighty figure had no trace of clumsiness or bulkiness. The perfectly sculpted muscular lines and body contours were like a work of divine craftsmanship, showcasing the epitome of the golden ratio in the human body. It seemed even more flawless than the finest sculptures crafted by Michelangelo.

In the colossal giant’s right hand, there was a stunning trident that stood hundreds of meters tall, akin to the Needle of the Sea God, suspended above the sea’s surface, exuding boundless power.

Ji Chen knew that this was the divine weapon.

And this giant was the fallen deity.

This place was likely the inner consciousness space of the trident, which once served as a divine weapon, retaining a fragment of the deity’s consciousness.

Suddenly, Ji Chen felt that the gaze of this deity, high above in the clouds, seemed to glance at him in curiosity.

But in the next moment, the trident radiated a blue light as brilliant as the sun or a meteor, directly descending into his chest. A vast, ocean-like power surged into his body.

“Ding! You are absorbing the power of the ocean.”

“Ding! Your body is undergoing a transformation.”

“Ding! Your primary profession is undergoing a change.”

“Ding! Your Lord’s Talent is evolving.”

System notifications continued to chime, but Ji Chen no longer had the spare attention to read them. He was fully focused on absorbing this power.

Energy was coursing through his body uncontrollably, and every cell in his body seemed to be expanding, with his heart pounding as if it were about to burst.

But Ji Chen persevered. He knew that as long as he successfully absorbed the power of the ocean, he would enter a completely new and more powerful realm.

This seemingly chaotic rush of energy was widening Ji Chen’s meridians and pathways, transforming his internal organs, spell circuits, and remaking them into new forms. With each collision, his cells grew stronger, weaker cells were crushed, and more powerful ones were born.

Simultaneously, his body and appearance gradually changed, moving towards a more perfect form. Even the strands of his hair gradually turned deep blue.

Outside.

The Ocean Crown heroes who were engaged in battle suddenly noticed a burst of endless blue light behind them. They turned their heads and saw Ji Chen touching the divine weapon with his right hand. However, his face was filled with pain, and they couldn’t help but show concern.

Anina even subconsciously wanted to go back to him but was stopped by Alice.

“Our Lord is at a critical moment; do not disturb him!”

“We’ll continue to resist the deviant ghosts and allow our Lord to complete everything without hindrance.”

Upon hearing Alice’s words, Anina stopped and watched Ji Chen, who was growing stronger despite the apparent pain. She clenched her teeth and returned to the battle.

Upon hearing this, Anina halted and observed Jichen, who, despite the pain on his face, was growing increasingly powerful. She gritted her teeth and returned to the fray.

A sudden surge of her noble bloodline sent a long, mournful whale’s song from her lips. In its place, she transformed into a massive whale, measuring around forty to fifty meters in length, sporting dragon-like whiskers on her face.

With a low growl, she advanced toward the horde of deviant ghosts.

Her aim was clear – to unleash her fury upon these relentless specters!
