The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful Chapter 796: Chaos Battle

Chapter 796: Chaos Battle

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

**Deep Sea**

The vast sea basin, originally empty, was now crowded with all sorts of marine creatures. Hundreds of lords from the Sea of Death had gathered here, each with their own army stationed.

They eyed each other warily, on guard against the enemy.

Some lords, feeling their strength insufficient, formed temporary alliances for mutual protection, while others, powerful and disdainful, claimed their own territories.

But their attention, without exception, was focused on a bronze gate embedded in the seabed cliffs in the distance, engraved with mysterious and intricate patterns.

Their eyes were filled with desire, greed, and heavy caution.

It was a relic left behind by the G.o.ds—the Ocean G.o.d’s Shrine, possessing boundless power, yet cursed with the decay of life. Although it had existed in the Sea of Death for who knows how long, no sea creatures had dared to approach it.

But not long ago, the Ocean G.o.d’s Shrine suddenly showed signs of activity, and a voice as majestic as a G.o.d’s resounded in their minds simultaneously.

“Through the test, gain the shrine.”

They did not doubt, because the energy required to directly produce a voice in the mind was something no lord could achieve; only an artifact possessed such power!

If they could, as the voice said, pa.s.s the test and obtain the Ocean G.o.d’s Shrine, then unifying the entire Sea of Death would be within reach.

No sea creature could resist such temptation.

In an instant, hundreds of lords of the Sea of Death, shocked but without hesitation, brought all their armies, intending to seize this divine object.

As one after another prominent sea lord arrived, the Ocean G.o.d’s Shrine seemed to sense their presence, and the bronze gate that had not changed for countless years slowly opened inward.

But as if there were an invisible membrane on the threshold, keeping the seawater out, the door revealed a whirlpool of countless stars inside.

Clearly, it was no ordinary s.p.a.ce within.

Their hearts gradually heated up, but they did not move, instead vigilantly watching the other lords.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, as no lord dared to enter first.

Sometimes, humans prioritize possessions over their own well-being, often to their own detriment. This was applicable even in the Sea of Death. Soon, a bold lord suddenly rushed toward the door with his army.

This was like lighting the fuse of a powder keg; the entire sea basin exploded instantly. Many lords’ eyes turned red, and they subconsciously reached out to stop him from entering, as if letting him enter first would increase their chances of obtaining the shrine.

At first, the irritable lords fought among themselves. Some lords who had remained rational wanted to control the situation, but they were soon affected by the increasingly chaotic scene.

Whether those armies were intentionally engaged in combat or not, a potent spell veered off course and hit a nearby army led by a hesitant lord, immediately injuring hundreds of marine soldiers.

The eyes of this lord turned red instantly.

d.a.m.n it, he hadn’t even made a move, and these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds dared to attack him!?

“Men, let’s take them down!!”

With a command, his army, unable to contain their anger any longer, surged out and joined the melee without hesitation.

One by one, lords joined the melee, and tens of thousands of marine soldiers fought each other.

When Ji Chen arrived here riding on a giant turtle, what he saw was an extremely tragic scene.

The sea was filled with a shocking number of marine corpses, and the smooth sea basin was pockmarked by spells, with several underwater mountains collapsed around.

It was evident that a fierce large-scale melee had taken place.

And even now, some armies were still fighting, each one so bloodthirsty that they didn’t even notice Ji Chen and his group’s arrival.

“My lord, these lords and armies should have started fighting because the door opened, causing conflicts due to the order of entry…”

Alice pointed to the distant cliff, where the bronze gate, completely open, emitted a vortex of starlight.

Ji Chen nodded slightly. Obviously, some lords had already entered, but he wasn’t in a hurry at all.

Only the possessor of the power of the ocean could control the Ocean G.o.d’s Shrine. Without the power of the ocean, it was impossible to control even a bit. In other words, these lords were just tagging along.

Seeing fewer and fewer soldiers fighting, those lords gradually began to wake up, regretting bitterly as their hearts almost burst with remorse.

They regretted why they had suddenly joined the melee earlier, allowing other lords to slip in.

At this moment, they noticed that at some point, a ma.s.sive and incomparable giant turtle was quietly lurking on the seabed, surrounded by thousands of powerful armies—Naga Iron Colossus, Ocean Dragons, Leviathans, Heavy Armor Lobster Archers…

All were glaring at them with bated breath.

Inside the transparent dome on the turtle’s back, stood towering spell towers and spell cannons, with engraved spell patterns glowing layer by layer…

Their faces suddenly changed.

They quickly made way.

“Your Excellency, please come in.”

Their armies also instantly woke up, each one becoming very obedient, even disregarding the enemies who were fighting fiercely just now, all bowing down to show respect.

In the Death Sea, strength alone may not suffice; one must also possess the wisdom to act appropriately. If the powerful were displeased, eliminating them was as straightforward as crus.h.i.+ng a worm.

Ji Chen was also surprised by their rapid and unified actions. He showed no reaction, waving his hand indifferently.

They allowed the turtle and the army to pa.s.s directly over them.

In the three-dimensional ocean, being swum over from above was a disgrace, but this only applied when both sides were evenly matched, or when the opponent was weaker.

If the opponent’s strength far exceeded theirs, it became a sign of respecting the stronger.

As the huge and heavy body of the turtle slowly swam overhead, casting a large shadow, their hearts pounded incessantly, their faces showing some fear.

If this lump of ma.s.s were to come cras.h.i.+ng down now, they would probably be squashed into a pulp.

Fortunately, the turtle just leisurely swam by, disappearing into the bronze gate with the surrounding powerful army.

As if silenced by the pressure, it took them a while to recover, sighing in relief, each with a lingering look of fear on their faces.

But suddenly, they realized something.

There was a freaking human standing on the turtle’s back!

After entering the bronze gate, Ji Chen and his companions found themselves in a strange s.p.a.ce, almost like a hidden realm.

The sea was above, and the sky below.

The entire s.p.a.ce had flipped upside down.

It felt like there was no gravity here, allowing them to swim in the sky as if they were in the sea, gliding through the clouds above, gazing up at the suspended sea water with a sense of wonder.

Here, the rules of s.p.a.ce seemed completely different from the outside world.

Looking around, there were no traces of the other ocean lords who had entered, leaving them unsure if they had gone their separate ways or were lurking in the sea above, waiting to strike.

Ji Chen didn’t pay much attention, simply closing his eyes to sense the location of the ocean power.

Without wasting time, they set off immediately.

The s.p.a.ce wasn’t large, and after traversing the undulating layers of the “white ocean” for several minutes, they came upon a peculiar area.

It was as if a canopy was inverted above, keeping the clouds outside, while within the canopy, a majestic blue palace hung upside down at the intersection of sky and sea.

The s.h.i.+mmering seawater reflected the palace, along with the floating clouds below, creating a beautiful yet somewhat awe-inspiring sight, incredibly eye-catching.

As the turtle slowly pa.s.sed through this invisible canopy, the surrounding s.p.a.ce suddenly changed, rotating 180 degrees, and simultaneously gravity returned swiftly, causing a sudden sense of falling.

Thud—

The turtle plunged directly into the sea, creating waves over a hundred meters high. Even the accompanying army struggled to adapt to this sudden change in s.p.a.ce, nearly falling into the sea.

At the moment of the s.p.a.ce’s rotation, Ji Chen controlled his body and quickly surveyed his surroundings as he regained his composure.

In this area, which seemed either normal or twisted compared to the rest of the s.p.a.ce, stood only them and the magnificent palace, exuding a grand and imposing aura.

Without hesitation, Ji Chen slowly reached out his hand.

As the aura of the ocean power emanated, they seemed to be drawn to each other like magnets.

Swish—

The ma.s.sive palace, no less impressive in size than the turtle itself, soared into the air, gradually shrinking in flight until it became a miniature model, floating in the palm of Ji Chen’s hand.

The moment Ji Chen appeared here, the artifact had already sensed the familiar power, returning like a swallow to its nest.

Feeling the familiar and harmonious sensation emanating from the artifact named Ocean Palace, Ji Chen couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile.

This journey had been too smooth, so smooth that it made him feel that acquiring power and treasures in the past had been much more difficult.

Suddenly, several dozen troops entered this area from outside, looking disheveled from the instantaneous reversal of s.p.a.ce, each struggling to regain their composure after falling into the sea.

They spotted Ji Chen and the miniature palace floating above his palm.

Their eyes immediately turned red.

They roared.

“He’s got the G.o.dd.a.m.n Shrine, kill him!”

“The Shrine belongs to us, hand it over now!”

Ji Chen glanced at them indifferently, saying calmly, “If you want it, come and get it.”

Seemingly provoked by Ji Chen’s indifferent att.i.tude, these lords immediately commanded their troops to attack. Although they saw several powerful troops on Ji Chen’s side, they had over a dozen lords and over a hundred thousand troops.

A dozen against one—surely they could win?

But they quickly realized the folly of this thought.

Suddenly, the turtle’s back erupted with terrifying energy fluctuations, followed by a barrage of intensive spells soaring into the sky and cras.h.i.+ng down like meteors, blasting them into disarray.

The army, consisting of thousands, was commanded by several heroes who effortlessly mowed through their enemies. Even the least skilled among them belonged to the legacy tier, while most were legendary, and a few even attained epic status.

It was like being struck down with a crus.h.i.+ng blow.

Where on earth had this army come from!?
