Chapter 18: What a Beautiful Day Today

“You Water-Repelling Lobster Clan and Sea Rat Clan, have you grown bored with life to dare speak to us Electric Eel Clan in such a tone?”
Upon hearing Shui Kong’s words, Lei Ling’s anger surged.
Yan Shui, the leader of the Water Ocean Star Region, belonged to the Electric Eel Clan of Tian Su Star. On Tian Su Star, although it was nominally governed by four clans, the Electric Eel Clan had always held dominance, with the strong members of the other three clans always showing them respect.
“Heh, Lei Ling, you’re not even confused anymore. Now that our two clans have united, once we eliminate you three, can the Electric Eel Clan still hold its ground on Tian Su Star? Why should we show you any courtesy?” sneered Zang Yang, the leader of the Sea Rat Clan.
Lei Ling, Lei Kong, and Lei Tong, the three Electric Eels, trembled all over.
“Very good. Since you Water-Repelling Lobster Clan and Sea Rat Clan are impatient to live, then accept your fate of destruction,” Lei Ling said through gritted teeth in fury.
At that moment, the three Water-Repelling Lobsters and three Sea Rats leaped simultaneously, flying toward the three Electric Eels.
One Water-Repelling Lobster and one Sea Rat teamed up to take on one Electric Eel.
The lobster swung its pincers, creating a pale blue void filled with the power of the Water World. Once it covered the Electric Eel, it would immobilize it, preventing it from moving.
The Sea Rat jumped and created countless illusions within that space, each seemingly imbued with the power of the Water World, making it impossible to predict its attack direction. Once close, the Sea Rat could not only unleash attacks with that world power but also use its sharp teeth to severely damage the Electric Eel’s body.
“Bastards, get away!”
Seeing their opponents charging fiercely, the three Electric Eels roared in anger.
The deep holes on their foreheads quickly emitted lightning, sweeping at the Sea Rat illusions in the space. At the same time, they spat out water balls, also filled with the power of the Water World, to counter the voids created by the lobsters’ pincers.
Crack! Crackle…
The lightning shattered the Sea Rat illusions, while the water balls blocked the voids created by the pincers.
“Hmph, let’s see how many lightning bolts you Electric Eel Clan have. Today, we must eliminate you three.”
Seeing the three Electric Eels resisting strongly, Shui Kong, the leader of the Water-Repelling Lobster Clan, remained unshaken and shouted coldly once again.
Immediately, one lobster and one Sea Rat teamed up to attack the Electric Eels once more.
Void, illusions, lightning, water balls…
In this special space at the bottom of the underwater secret realm, the strong members of the three clans fought desperately, constantly attacking and defending.
“Ah…”

A heavy and sorrowful voice suddenly roared from the eel transformed by Lei Tong, as a huge blood hole over a meter deep appeared in the middle of its body. Just then, a sea rat finally flew up to Lei Tong and bit him, swallowing a large piece of flesh. In pain, Lei Tong’s reaction speed plummeted, making it difficult for him to keep up with the attacks from the water-crushing lobster and the sea rat. “Lei Tong, hold on!” “Bastards! If you dare hurt Lei Tong, you’ll pay dearly!” The two eels transformed by Lei Ling and Lei Kong shouted angrily while defending themselves. Unfortunately, as they shouted, the sea rat attacking Lei Tong came at him again, biting hard and swallowing more flesh, leaving Lei Tong’s body unable to move freely. “You’re seeking death!” A thunderous shout immediately came from Lei Tong’s mouth. “It’s starting! Lei Tong is about to explode!” The water-crushing lobster and the sea rat screaming in panic tried to fly away immediately. But Lei Tong was already determined to die; as he shouted, his demonic energy gathered, and along with the Soul Flower, he exploded. The fierce water-based demonic energy was controlled as if on purpose and rushed toward the lobster and the sea rat. Ah, ah… The lobster and the sea rat were instantly covered in wounds by the violent waves, and no amount of using their demonic energy to protect themselves helped. With both being four-star Heavenly Soul Demons, Lei Tong’s explosion was indeed beyond their ability to withstand. Yet, the lobster and the sea rat still survived, lying weak on the ground, bleeding profusely. Without immediate treatment, they might die from blood loss. “Bastards! You’ve angered me! I’m going to explode!” Suddenly, upon seeing Lei Tong explode to death, the two eels, Lei Ling and Lei Kong, also shouted in anger. In an instant, the water-crushing lobster and the sea rat, who were attacking them, instinctively chose to avoid them, fearing that Lei Ling and Lei Kong would really explode. After all, the destructive power of Lei Tong’s explosion earlier had already scared the other lobster and sea rat. Suddenly, the two eels swished their tails and arrived beside the injured lobster and sea rat, spitting out a water ball filled with the power of the water world, which instantly blew up the lobster and the sea rat. “Bad! Lei Ling and Lei Kong were just scaring us,” Shui Kong and Cang Yang shouted in panic. But by the time the two captains realized it, it was already too late.

“Hmph, you Water-Scuttling Lobster Clan and Sea Rat Clan—having killed Lei Tong, now wait for our Electric Eel Clan’s revenge,” Lei Ling roared angrily.
Immediately, the two electric eels tried to fly out of this special space and into the seawater filled with corrosive spiritual energy to escape the underwater secret realm.
“You want to run? It’s not that easy. We’ll fight to the death to keep you alive,” Shui Kong and Cang Yang shouted at the same time. Both captains knew they were now completely at odds with the Electric Eel Clan. If those two electric eels returned unharmed, the Water-Scuttling Lobster Clan and Sea Rat Clan would never have a peaceful day again.
In an instant, the two water-Scuttling lobsters and the two sea rats rushed forward and blocked the electric eels’ path to escape.
The electric eels had strong attacking power, but their speed was mediocre. Before they could even move, they were blocked by the lobsters and sea rats.
“Damn you! Since you insist on dying, I’ll have no choice but to self-destruct,” Lei Ling roared.
In an instant, the demonic energy within Lei Ling gathered intensely.
“Self-destruct? Are you still trying to scare us?” Shui Kong and Cang Yang said coldly.
Having been scared once already, they were even more frustrated by these words. How could they not blame themselves?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, extremely powerful electric waves flashed on the foreheads of the two electric eels—at least ten times thicker than ordinary lightning.
The lightning immediately struck Shui Kong and Cang Yang.
“I’ll kill your whole family…”
“How could it be this strong…”
One of the lobster captains was split in two, while the other sea rat had a terrifying blood hole in its abdomen.
The lightning had severely injured both captains.
At the same time, the lightning emitted by Lei Ling and Lei Kong continued to sweep forward, hitting the other water-Scuttling lobster and sea rat. The situation changed instantly—the other lobster and sea rat was stunned. Just as it tried to resist when hit by the lightning, its Soul Flower was struck, killing it instantly.
When the lightning disappeared, Lei Ling and Lei Kong, the two electric eels, also collapsed weakly on the ground, exhausted.
Clearly, those two abnormal flashes of lightning must have been the result of the electric eels unleashing their full potential. They now had to stop and rest to recover their strength.
Shui Kong, the water-Scuttling lobster, and Cang Yang, the sea rat, lay on the ground as well, motionless, recovering from their injuries.
The fierce battle between the three clans ended with all of them severely wounded.

Undoubtedly, the ultimate winner among the three tribes will be the one who recovers from their injuries first and can thus strike down the other tribe to claim victory in this battle.
“Haha, what a nice day today.”
Suddenly, just as the strong warriors of the three tribes collapsed from severe injuries, Qu Yi appeared in the special space, his face filled with laughter.
The two electric eels struggled to move their heads, staring at Qu Yi in terror. The water-resistant lobster was using its mystical energy to heal its tail, making it difficult to move, but it kept waving its pincers as a threat. The large hole in the sea rat’s abdomen prevented it from moving freely; it could only keep gnashing its teeth as a warning.
Seeing these four monstrous beasts still trying to intimidate him despite their severe injuries, Qu Yi laughed even more heartily.
“I say, why fight so fiercely? It would be better for everyone to enjoy life together on this Tian Su Star. Fighting to the death over the Jie Tian Fruit only ends up benefiting me in the end.”
Qu Yi laughed openly without any disguise.
“What kind of monster are you? How did you manage to enter this underwater secret realm?” asked Lei Ling, transformed into an electric eel, in panic.
“Could it be that you took the Jie Tian Fruit?” shouted Shui Kong, transformed into the water-resistant lobster, resentfully.
“Be careful for the rest of your life—this time you’ve really lost,” cried Cang Yang, transformed into the sea rat, in pain.
All four monstrous beasts now showed signs of sorrow, along with deep resentment.
Qu Yi chuckled, glanced at them, and smiled satisfactorily before saying, “You don’t need to worry too much. I won’t kill you. I’ll just imprint my soul mark on your Soul Flowers.”
Indeed, after seeing these four beasts, Qu Yi had no intention of killing them—he needed subordinates at the Tian Po Monster level right now.
“You’re delusional!”
“Don’t even think about it. I won’t become your pet beast.”
“If you do this, the entire Monster Realm will hunt you down. Can you bear that?”
In an instant, the four monstrous beasts cried out in fear.
Qu Yi shook his head and stopped talking. He first went over to Lei Ling, the electric eel, and watched him with a smile. Suddenly, Qu Yi’s divine awareness entered Lei Ling’s Soul Flower, attempting to imprint his own soul mark. Naturally, Lei Ling resisted desperately, shaking his Soul Flower to fight back against Qu Yi’s divine awareness.
The Artifact God inside the Cun Jie Ball stepped in. A golden beam followed Qu Yi’s divine awareness into Lei Ling’s Soul Flower, instantly suppressing it and preventing it from moving. Then, Qu Yi successfully imprinted his soul mark.

Next, Qu Yi also imprinted his own soul mark on the three monstrous beasts—Thunder Control, Water-Air, and Hidden Ocean. He had succeeded in obtaining these four pet beasts of the Heavenly Soul Monster level.
