Novel Full Chapter 1402
He was especially proficient at dealing with agility system Soul Masters and had extremely sound judgment. This Snow and Ice Storm that had been unleashed was his signature control ability, and it encompassed a very large area.
The spy that they had detected was proving to be quite troublesome; he was adept in spatial abilities, and shockwave missiles weren't cheap. Over 20 of them had already been launched thus far, all to no avail, which was why he had decided to come out in person to get the job done.
No matter how cunning the spy was, there was no way he would be able to escape.
The Snow and Ice Storm he had unleashed had the ability to seal off the space that it encompassed, but right at this moment, a stunning turn of events unfolded.
All of a sudden, a burst of blue light abruptly rose up from the surface of the ocean. Xie Xie was already in complete despair, yet the frosty aura around him was suddenly alleviated significantly, and the snowflakes around him quickly melted away as if they were being subjected to the heat of the scorching summer sun.
"Get in the sea." A familiar voice traveled into his ears, and his eyes lit up with elation as he immediately plunged into the sea like a cannonball.
The Snow and Ice Battle God faltered slightly upon seeing this before reflexively pointing a finger at Xie Xie, sending a streak of glacial light hurtling directly toward him.
However, a massive wave suddenly rose up from the sea without any warning, then swept up Xie Xie's body and abruptly dragged him into the ocean. Thus, the Snow and Ice Battle God's attack struck nothing but empty air.
The Snow and Ice Battle God was furious, and he immediately issued an instruction through his portable military communicator. "Activate the deep sea radars!"
The underwater sonars, radars, thermal imaging devices, and soul power detection soul tools were all immediately activated, but no discoveries were made; it was as if the Xie Xie had been completely devoured by the ocean, leaving no traces behind.
How was this possible?
An astonished look appeared in the eyes of the Snow and Ice Battle God upon receiving this report. He had faced countless agility system Soul Masters throughout his life, but it was the first time that something like this had ever happened. This was downright incredible!
That wave clearly wasn't part of that agility system Soul Master's abilities, so someone had to have backed him up from underwater. Was this person from the Star Luo Empire?
In any case, the federal fleet was going to be discovered by the Star Luo Empire eventually, but the later the discovery was made, the greater the advantage the federal fleet would gain. On top of that, the Snow and Ice Battle God was feeling very indignant to have a spy sneak away from right under his nose.
"Come back, there's an unfathomably powerful being assisting that spy from the shadows." An authoritative voice rang out from within the communicator, and the fury on the Snow and Ice Battle God's face immediately transitioned into a respectful expression upon hearing this voice.
He immediately gave an affirmative reply, then flew toward the largest of the three aircraft carriers as opposed to returning to his own warship.
An opening appeared in the light barrier around the aircraft carrier to grant him entry, and he flew directly to the control center.
After arriving at the entrance to the control center, he stood up straight outside the door, and yelled, "Sir!"
"Come in." A placid voice rang out in response.
The Snow and Ice Battle God strode into the control center, then extended an impeccable military salute toward the elderly man standing before him.
"Apologies for my incompetence, Hall Master," the Snow and Ice Battle God said with a hint of indignation in his eyes.
Boundless Ocean Douluo Chen Xinjie waved a hand in response. "You're not to blame; that spy had an extremely powerful ally. I didn't think that there was a powerful being of this caliber in the Star Luo Empire."
"What do you mean, Hall Master?" the Snow and Ice Battle God asked as his brows furrowed slightly.
Chen Xinjie replied, "I was unable to sense who had rescued that spy. When I tried to track them down using my spiritual power, the sea rejected me. This is the first time I've encountered such a situation."
"What?" the Snow and Ice Battle God exclaimed in shock.
Ever since he had joined the Battle God Hall, the Boundless Ocean Douluo had always been his idol, whom he harbored an unconditional sense of admiration toward.
He was well aware of just how powerful the Boundless Ocean Douluo was; his martial soul was the ocean itself! He had an extremely high level of affinity with the ocean, and even though he hadn't reached the quasigod level yet, he was only a sliver away. If a battle were to take place on the ocean, even a quasigod won't necessarily be able to match him. With such a close connection to the sea, it was downright unthinkable that the ocean would reject him.
How was this happening? It didn't make any sense!
Chen Xinjie's brows furrowed slightly. "I don't know what happened, but this feeling is making me very uneasy. The sea only rejected me for an instant, but after that instant, both the spy and his ally completely disappeared. The sea produced natural water elemental fluctuations to throw off all of our detection devices for around five seconds, and by the time all of the detection devices returned to normal, both of them were gone."
The Snow and Ice Battle God asked, "What should we do, Hall Master?"
A faint smile appeared on Chen Xinjie's face. "Let's wait and see what happens. I'm very curious about when such a powerful being appeared in the Star Luo Empire; their ability to draw upon the power of the sea is most likely not inferior to mine. At the very least, I can almost be completely certain that the Star Luo Empire now has more than one Limit Douluo. Isn't it much more interesting to be facing a more powerful opponent?"
As the Battle God Hall Master, his combat prowess hadn't waned in the slightest despite his advanced age, and as one of the leaders of the Eagle Faction, he had always had a strong competitive spirit.
"Issue my orders: travel full speed ahead toward our original planned destination. Now that we've already been discovered, there's no need to hide anything any longer."
"Yes!"
......
Xie Xie felt as if the entire world were spinning around him.
In the instant that he was swept up by that massive wave, he had completely lost control over his own body, but there was a special type of power dragging him rapidly through the ocean. There was barely light this deep down in the ocean, so he had no idea where he was. Thankfully, his forte lay in his speed, so he was able to ward off the sense of dizziness that would often arise when traveling at such a high speed.
Despite his lack of control over the situation, he felt very safe as the voice that had called out to him was one that he trusted the most and was most familiar with. Even if he misheard Yuanen Yehui's voice, there was no way that he would mishear this voice.
Xie Xie had no idea how he had suddenly attained this power, but he had absolute trust in him. After all, it wasn't like this was the first time he had created a miracle.
In reality, even Tang Wulin himself hadn't thought that he would be able to control the sea to such an extent. Furthermore, he had clearly sensed the spiritual power that belonged to the Boundless Ocean Douluo.
As soon as that burst of spiritual power had entered the sea, it had almost stolen Tang Wulin's control over the ocean away from him, and it had also come very close to tracking him down.
Thankfully, the sea had reacted of its own accord to cut off Chen Xinjie's spiritual sense, and also acted according to Tang Wulin's instruction to protect Xie Xie.
Everything had happened so quickly that even Tang Wulin himself was still reeling from this dramatic sequence of events.
Was that the power of the Sea God that his father had left to him? Even though he wasn't the actual Sea God, Tang Wulin had a feeling that the sea would protect him.
