Caesar's face contorted even further.
Because Julia was present, Arthur spoke in slang.
His so-called studying was actually just looking for women.
The things he had been rambling about should have been related to his former Dragon Country girlfriend.
This was precisely why Caesar had always disapproved of Arthur pursuing his younger sister.
Who would willingly let such a philandering fellow plow their own vegetable patch?
As for the others present, their thoughts were largely in line with Arthur's.
If this extremely perverted state could be maintained, then Lin Ran would be invincible, which was obviously impossible.
What they primarily found absurd was that the secret technique used by Lin Ran and Luo Qingyan amplified their strength to an exaggerated degree.
Once the skill was activated, it could completely overwhelm an eighth-tier lord-level ferocious beast. Who could withstand that?
If this were to happen in a match, wouldn't it mean Lin Ran could kill gods and buddhas alike?
Turning back to the battlefield.
The Seaswallowing Demon Whale, its entire body bound and unable to move, its eyes had turned crimson due to immense fear and panic.
Under these circumstances, it could only manipulate the twelve water dragon souls in the air to extricate itself.
Simultaneously, it used its magic to stir up even greater waves and whirlwinds, launching a frenzied, indiscriminate assault.
Just as the awakened ones on the periphery cried out in surprise and began to dodge, Lin Ran retrieved another divine artifact from the Gate of Babylon.
Bone of the Holy Immortal – Indra's Lightning!
"Insignificant beast, do you not yield?"
"How dare you act presumptuously before my Twin Gods of Thunder and Rain?!"
Lin Ran, spouting boastful nonsense, channeled his magic into the small, doorknob-like artifact in his hand.
In the next instant, clouds churned, thunder roared, lightning flashed, tides surged, and rain poured down. Almost all elements of thunder and rain were brought under Lin Ran's control.
Even the waves stirred up by the Seaswallowing Demon Whale and the water dragon souls summoned by its essence blood began to slip from its grasp.
Before long, these forces were fighting for Lin Ran!
Under the absolute suppression of the pink crystal, the Seaswallowing Demon Whale was defeated in every contest of magic or physique with Lin Ran, to the point it was almost spitting blood from anger.
"Dark Meteor!"
Seeing the Seaswallowing Demon Whale's defenses dismantled, Luo Qingyan was not one to hold back. She raised her hand and unleashed a torrential rain of meteors.
Each dark-attribute meteorite that descended from the sky elicited a howl of agony from the Seaswallowing Demon Whale, leaving behind a scar scorched by dark energy on its body.
"Curse – Final Radiance!"
Luo Qingyan, having established a shared contract with Lin Ran, wielded her magic with even greater abandon. In the blink of an eye, another ultimate move was unleashed.
The sword of light in her hand gathered immense magic capable of cleaving mountains, transforming into a torrential blade light that instantly enveloped the demon whale.
Sizzle!
This sword strike cleaved the Seaswallowing Demon Whale from head to tail, nearly bisecting it.
This deep, fatal wound left the Seaswallowing Demon Whale on the brink of death.
Meanwhile, Lin Ran had already maneuvered to a position parallel to the Seaswallowing Demon Whale and produced an exaggeratedly large bow and arrow.
Pierce the Heavens – True – Shoot Down the Hundred Beasts!
This renowned bow was incredibly ferocious: nine consecutive shots per arrow, with automatic tracking capabilities.
Lin Ran gently drew the bowstring, and with a seemingly casual pull, nine laser-like arrows shot out.
Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit!
The nine arrows struck the Seaswallowing Demon Whale's skeleton and nerves in different locations, plunging its entire consciousness into a deep coma.
Lin Ran did not stop, unleashing another barrage of arrows, causing the horizon to shimmer with a cascade of radiant colors.
However, these arrows were no longer aimed at killing the Seaswallowing Demon Whale, but at harvesting its spoils.
Bone extraction, meat cutting, core retrieval, blubber collection…
To Lin Ran, there were three most crucial components on the Seaswallowing Demon Whale.
These were the magic core, containing pure magic, the whale blubber, highly beneficial to the body, and its heart, possessing seemingly boundless vitality.

"This secret technique, with its once-a-year cooldown, has far too many side effects…"
"And its preparation is also extremely time-consuming."
"Lin Ran paid an even greater price to speed things up, only completing the prelude within two hours."
"It is precisely because of this that we both received such significant enhancements."
"I can only say it's fortunate that the battle wasn't prolonged…"
"Otherwise, his heart might have suffered permanent rupture."
"If it had come to that, even immortals couldn't save him…"
