Chapter 302 - 302: I like her Human Form
A soul beast that reaches one hundred thousand years of cultivation will face a heavenly tribulation.
If it survives, it can continue living.
If it fails, it will be utterly destroyed, body and soul.
After the first tribulation, a hundred-thousand-year soul beast steps onto the path of cultivation ranging from one hundred thousand to one million years.
From then on, it will encounter a calamity once every additional hundred thousand years of cultivation.
In order to become a million-year soul beast, one must survive ten such calamities—but that's basically impossible.
The reason lies in an ancient internal war in the Divine Realm between human gods and beast gods.
The beast gods were defeated.
Ever since, soul beasts have been suppressed by the Divine Realm.
They decreed that soul beasts would face a heavenly tribulation every one hundred thousand years, each more powerful than the last.
The tenth tribulation is specifically designed to annihilate them.
Thus, soul beasts can never truly reach a million years of cultivation.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, upon learning of this, felt a tinge of sorrow.
Fortunately, the injuries caused by Poseidon have healed, and the eyes that had been blinded are now able to see again.
However...
All of this was made possible by the powerful being standing before him.
There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Or rather, what appears free is usually the hardest to obtain.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King heard everything clearly. Cautiously, he probed:
"Your Excellency, did you say you've taken a liking to my daughter?"
At that moment, Lan Fozi—who had been crying upon seeing her father nearly die—stopped sobbing.
She looked curiously at Rei Ao.
It seemed he had indeed mentioned her.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's wife grew nervous. "My lord, my daughter..."
She had wanted to say her daughter was still young, but at a hundred-thousand-year level, that hardly seemed "young."
"You. Come here."
Rei Ao crooked a finger at Lan Fozi.

"..."
Lan Fozi didn't know what to do.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's wife could only look to her husband.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was a straightforward man. Even if this being was unimaginably powerful and had saved his life, it still concerned his family, so he spoke up directly.
"My lord, may I ask what you see in my daughter?"
"I like her human form after she transforms," Rei Ao replied without the slightest hesitation.
Indeed, the girl Lan Fozi in her human form was strikingly beautiful.
"..."
Behind him, Bibi Dong had trouble finding words.
He actually just fancied that hundred-thousand-year soul beast's good looks? But that's a soul beast!
Rei Ao didn't care about the taboos this world's soul masters might have regarding soul beasts. After all, he once idolized Xu Xian, and "strawberry heroes" aren't a joke. He had even slept with a dragon, so he didn't mind trying whales, sharks, and so on—as long as they could transform into human form, that was fine.
This revelation shocked the Deep Sea Demon Whale couple as well. The lord before them was attracted to their daughter's human shape?
That... might not be a bad thing at all!
Of course, they both hoped their daughter could stay close to this incomparably powerful figure—especially the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, who had personally witnessed just a fraction of Rei Ao's despair-inducing power.
After all, a soul beast is still a soul beast. As Rei Ao had said, the Divine Realm suppresses soul beasts and prevents them from becoming gods. Humans, however, can one day ascend to godhood. Soul beasts are either cut down by natural causes or heavenly tribulations, or else become soul rings for humans, especially for powerful soul masters who yearn for hundred-thousand-year soul rings and soul bones.
If their daughter could remain at this lord's side, perhaps that would be the safest place in the world.
Still, they didn't want to force her choice.
Lan Fozi remained innocent, unable to grasp the true implications.
Sensing her curiosity, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King brought up a topic:
"My lord, are you planning to take my daughter to the human world?"
"The human world?!"
Lan Fozi's eyes lit up. She was very curious about it, though her parents always stopped her from going near humans.
Rei Ao pondered for a moment, then had an idea.
He promised, "Yes. If she's willing, I can guarantee that no one can harm her—not even all the gods in the Divine Realm, nor the strongest of the God-Kings."
"!!!"
His calm, confident statement shook the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King to his core.
He only knew of one deity, Poseidon. But Rei Ao clearly knew not just about gods, but even the mightiest deity in the Divine Realm...
And he was still able to speak of it so casually.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King realized that Rei Ao might be a great opportunity sent by the heavens. If they seized this chance, their daughter might not have to endure future tribulations and endless suffering. He felt an urgent desire to agree on her behalf.
His wife sensed her husband's eagerness, but could only wait for their daughter's answer from above.
After a while, Lan Fozi wore a pitiful expression as she asked, "Mom, Dad, is it okay if I go see the human world?"
She expected a rejection.
Yet the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King immediately said yes.
"Alright! Absolutely! Daughter, from now on, you'll follow this lord!"
Afraid Rei Ao would change his mind, he swept his tail—and a gust of wind blew Lan Fozi right into Rei Ao's arms, where he caught her steadily.
"My lord, we entrust our daughter to you."
With that, he prepared to leave with his wife.
"Take these."
Rei Ao casually flicked out two ice crystals, which each of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King couple swallowed.
"What... is this?"
They felt puzzled by what they had just ingested.
"It's my power, to protect you both from harm by future tribulations and keep you from perishing," Rei Ao said with a smile.
"Since you've entrusted your daughter to me, I naturally won't let her lose her parents."
"..."
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and his wife exchanged a glance.
They said solemnly, "Thank you."
Then they dove back into the depths of the ocean.
"Eh?"
At that moment, Lan Fozi—still in Rei Ao's arms—finally came to her senses.
"Mom and Dad just... agreed like that?"
After all, they'd always warned her how dangerous humans could be.
"That's right. From now on, you'll follow me."
