Reincarnated as a World

Ch.257 Another Sea Emperor

Countless Sea Dwellers of all kinds were gathered together without fighting, a profoundly uncommon occasion.

It was normally too difficult for the weaker beings of the sea to look at these apex predators without being worried that they would suddenly twitch and it would be the end of their life, but many were doing so today.

The waters were filled with excitement but at the same time, the scene was so tense and suffocating that despite the vast amount of numbers, there was barely any noise. And there were 3 main reasons for that.

The first was the air of malevolence and utter hatred that surrounded the Sea Emperor. NOBODY wanted to draw his attention. And the second was that, at the end of the day, they knew themselves and they knew their neighbours.

As soon as a few drops of blood were exposed, it would send those with weaker control over their instincts into a frenzy. And when a blood bath inevitably kicked up, even those in the 3rd and 4th Realm would start licking their lips. Everybody here wanted to avoid that, so they kept silent, hoping that they didn’t attract a fool’s attention.

And the third reason was that, well... They didn’t want to miss out on seeing what happened next to the object that held everyone’s attention. The object that caused the Sea Emperor to bring his entire army here, and the object that brought everyone else here.

It was none other than the silver cocoon that was being surrounded like a top tier resource that was about to bloom.

Most people here knew that it was the tell-tale sign of somebody’s evolution, meaning that somebody was promoting to the 4th Realm in Bilibu’s territory.

Although there was a chance that it was someone evolving as a Magic Beast (1st Realm), that chance was so low that it wasn’t even worth mentioning. It had long become apparent that 1st Realm evolution was a feat that only their 1st generation ancestors/progenitors could achieve, and that too if they were lucky. Moreover, going by the size of the cocoon that was STILL growing, there was no way it could belong to someone who was just entering the 1st Realm.

*Ooooosh~*

Suddenly, the sound of a large amount of water moving could be faintly heard in the distance, but it was becoming louder, and rapidly. Something was coming, and if the sound was anything to go by, that something was very large.

Everyone turned to the cause of the commotion, and many immediately froze as they identified it, or to be more specific, ‘him’, as he swam gracefully into their gathering without any care.

The creature was approximately 70 metres tall if you didn’t take the extra limbs into account, but with the limbs, that was an extra 120 with a grand total of 190. A prodigious size even for those in the 4th Realm, rivalling that of whales and other large sea creatures. Something that was even more unique when you noticed what species this figure belonged to, which wasn’t hard considering the giant squishy head and 10 large tentacles.

He was undoubtedly an octopus, and most importantly another Sea Emperor.

He had dark blue skin, which made him almost invisible this far below the surface of the Sea, but the 2 giant golden eyes that glowed like suns could be seen from miles away.

The tentacles seemed to be perfect for swimming, because the way he moved through the waters as if there was no resistance – and the speed at which he did so despite his size, was just too scary.

He ended up next to Bilibu in no time, but he was blocked by the army that used their bodies to block his way. Still, everyone could notice their fear. However, nobody dared to look down on them. After all, what they were facing was an Enlightened Beast in the 4th Stage, a High Tier Emperor that was 2 stages above their own, and it was an extremely notorious one at that.

Bilibu’s mood that was already at rock bottom somehow managed to plummet even further. He felt sick.
