Shi Ming boarded the Sun Piercer at top speed and imdiately activated stealth mode!
Stealth mode couldn’t evade the Deep Sea Titan’s deep-level detection. However, compared to more conspicuous targets, Shi Ming’s threat level while cloaked would be at its absolute lowest, minimizing the danger he was in.
Sotis, you don’t have to outrun the sea beast—you just have to outrun your "companions."
He had an ability he could activate at any ti, but fleeing at this mont was not a wise choice.
The mont the Deep Sea Titan opened its eyes, twelve shattered phantoms had already returned, turning a three-nautical-mile radius into its absolute domain. The Chain of Order sealed off the space once more. Following that, a massive Divine Hall descended from the sky, a silver river coiling around it!
The Divine Hall, with an ancient clock hanging at its very top, was the skill "Divine Hall of Ti," which one had only a 2% chance of acquiring.
The River of Destiny, twisted into the shape of an infinity symbol (∞) with its ends joined, was the skill "Wheel of Destiny"—one that had a 10% chance of being acquired.
After activating Twelve Titans’ Fury, probabilities no longer mattered. This S-class sea beast could now freely call upon the abilities of its ancestors, like a god on high, indifferently regarding all living things within its domain! The power over life and death was entirely at its whim.
It stood motionless, making no move to attack, yet massive bolts of lightning were already ravaging the surrounding sea!
This was the wrath of a god.
...
Caught in the Deep Sea Titan’s first wave of attacks, Wright was sent flying.
Both his armor and the deep-sea suit he wore underneath were shattered. The imnse impact to his internal organs made him vomit copious amounts of blood, which trickled slowly down the pressure-resistant barrier created by his Dinglan Pearl. If it weren’t for a passive defensive skill serving as a final safety net, he would have been killed instantly.
At this critical mont, he restored the pressure-resisting function of the others’ Dinglan Pearls.
With no spoils of victory left to claim, he now needed the others to help him fight this formidable foe.
All the Awakened who had lost their combat abilities finally began to recover.
"Damn it, that bastard!"
"So *now* he rembers us?"
All the Awakened cursed him inwardly, but with such a great enemy before them, being able to move again was far better than just waiting to die. The terrifying sea beast was clearly beyond their ability to handle. Killing it was nothing but a pipe dream; whether they could even escape was an open question.
The top priority was to escape!
Unfortunately, the balance of power had shifted dramatically. The twelve Titan phantoms had entered the battlefield, hunting down the prey within their domain!
The Swordsman, Iwami, struggled to fend off attacks as he fled, subconsciously drifting toward the strongest fighter among them, Mr. Lei.
The other Awakened, however, were pressed for ti and couldn’t group up. Each struggled on their own to fend off all manner of bizarre attacks.
On the Divine Hall floating above the deep sea, the clock with its twelve indices completed one full rotation.
DONG!
Ti seed to freeze for one second.
It was "Divine Hall of Ti," a skill from the Twelve Titans’ arsenal with only a 2% acquisition rate! Its effect was simple and brutal: within the area covered by the Divine Hall, ti would freeze for one second every twelve seconds!
During the ti freeze, all creatures and objects were held in stasis. Only the Deep Sea Titan could move freely!
Iwami was sent flying. The longsword was knocked from his hand as his body slamd into a dark reef.
Right beside him was Mr. Lei.
Dazed and in pain, Iwami pulled out the Taunt Stone he had kept hidden. The stone’s smooth, mirror-like surface flashed, capturing Mr. Lei’s reflection!
’At this point, killing the sea beast is nearly impossible. Survival is all that matters!’
’Letting Mr. Lei draw its aggro is the perfect solution.’
’Don’t bla . The strongest has to bear the greatest responsibility!’
’Better you than !’
...
Yize was bracing for a brutal attack from a Titan when, suddenly, the phantom shifted its focus. Its new target was Mr. Lei, whose body was tinged with purple.
Three attacks converged on him at once. Mr. Lei had no choice but to transform into lightning again and flee toward another area. Unfortunately, several more phantoms were waiting for him there! Now marked by the Taunt Stone, he had beco the phantoms’ primary target. Yet, Mr. Lei was completely unaware of this disaster that had befallen him out of nowhere.
While cloaked, Shi Ming observed everything unfolding before him.
The massive Titan itself could probably detect him, but the phantoms on the battlefield had difficulty seeing through the Sun Piercer’s camouflage. This gave him the opportunity to weave through the battlefield with ease, carefully observing the Deep Sea Titan’s attacks as well as the trump cards of every Awakened present.
’Right now,’ he assessed, ’if I want to slay this sea beast, I either need to wait out the duration of Twelve Titans’ Fury—which is obviously impossible. It lasts for three whole days. No one could survive that long inside this encirclent.’
’Or... I need a way to attack it with sothing that possesses divinity...’
And on this point, Shi Ming already had a plan.
He never fought a battle he wasn’t prepared for.
Before diving into the ocean, he had already drawn up contingency plans. If he truly couldn’t avoid the Deep Sea Titan’s third phase, there was another excellent option: use the Black Tortoise Shield’s reflection chanism to send a divine attack right back at the caster.
The Black Tortoise was also a legendary divine beast. During their first encounter on the seabed, the Black Tortoise Bloodline within his body had partially resonated with the Titan, which served as confirmation.
But he had to wait for the right mont.
It had to be an attack powerful enough to be fatal in order to completely shatter the Titan’s divine body.
