Cultivation Online novel Chapter 2396

Chapter 2396: Defeating the True Emperor of the Seas

"Hahaha! That kid is actually doing it! He’s actually forcefully extracting that imposter’s Blood Essence!" The Primal Sovereign of the Seas couldn’t contain its amusement and burst out laughing.

"That Primal Monarch! He actually gave so much power to a mere human! Just what in heaven’s name is he thinking?!"

Before Yuan revealed such a power, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas had not fully believed his claim of being the Primal Monarch’s adopted son. Now, after witnessing Yuan wield the power, all doubt vanished like smoke.

In fact, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas was even shocked that the Primal Monarch would grant a mere human such a terrifying power.

"S-STOP! STOP IT RIGHT THIS INSTANT!" The True Emperor of the Seas exclaimed in terror as it sensed its Blood Essence being formed and forcefully being extracted.

Of course, Yuan completely ignored its plea and continued to extract its Blood Essence.

With no other choice, the True Emperor of the Seas turned and fled in sheer panic. Though it could not escape into the water, it could still try to put distance between itself and Yuan.

It hoisted its massive, severed tentacles into the air and slammed them down like makeshift legs, scrambling away in a sight so desperate and absurd that it would have been laughable were it not so pitiful.

"Hahaha!" The Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ laughter grew louder and louder as it watched the True Emperor of the Seas’ desperate attempt.

As for Yuan, he didn’t even bother giving chase and merely muttered a single command.

"Halt."

In an instant, the True Emperor of the Seas obeyed Yuan’s command and halted its movements.

"T-This power! Primal Monarch?! What is your relationship with the Primal Monarch?!" The True Emperor of the Seas finally recognized Yuan’s frightening power.

"Did the Primal Monarch tell you to do this?! Why?! WHYYY?!"

"The Primal Monarch has nothing to do with this," Yuan calmly replied. "As I said from the very beginning, I am here to settle a personal grudge."

"BUT I DON’T EVEN REMEMBER DOING ANYTHING TO YOU!" The True Emperor of the Seas roared in anger.

Yuan suddenly tapped his forehead with a finger, drawing out a dim, glowing orb from within. With a flick of his arm, he sent the orb streaking across the sky before it plunged into the True Emperor of the Seas.

What he had just bestowed upon it was a fragment of his memories—the moment of its own crimes.

After receiving the memory, the True Emperor of the Seas became as stiff as a rock. It was so shocked by the memory’s contents that it became a statue.

It could hardly believe that a single act—toying with a small group of people out of sheer boredom hundreds of millions of years ago—had led to this very moment... to its current humiliation and impending downfall.

"You’re killing me over something like that?! I didn’t even kill you!" the True Emperor of the Seas roared, snapping out of its daze.

"No," Yuan replied coldly, "but you killed my partner’s family... and I would even say it indirectly led to her death later."

He paused briefly before continuing, his voice lowering. "That said... If I’m being honest, this is nothing more than a petty act of revenge. I was too weak—too pathetic—to do anything back then. So now... I’m making up for that weakness."

"That’s utterly ridiculous! Are you really going to invoke the wrath of a Prime Eternal over something like that?!"

"This is not my first time offending an Eternal, and I doubt it will be the last," Yuan admitted.
