Yama Rising

The entirety of New Jersey was rumbling violently as boundless Yin energy erupted from the ground up into the sky, making it appear as if a black screen had settled over heaven and earth. Qin Ye made no effort to conceal himself as he passed rapidly through the boundless Yin energy while Benson acted as his guide.

Less than 10 minutes after he had flown through the area, a deafening roar rang out across the entire state. The closer Qin Ye drew to the Great Blue Hole Abyss,the louder the roar became, and it filled with fury, desire, and indignation.

Just a little faster... Qin Ye was staring intently at the horizon in the distance. There, inky-black Yin energy was already surging like a volcanic eruption. Layer up layer of dark Yin energy was rising up toward the heavens, dispersing all of the azure Yin energy of Limbo.

The dark Yin energy encompassed an area with a radius of several dozen kilometers, and countless monarch beasts were already rushing toward the area in a frenzy like sharks that had smelt blood. On the ground right behind Qin Ye, several monarch beasts were galloping along, rushing toward the sea with frenetic excitement in their eyes. Several more massive monarch beasts were already prowling the coastline, greedily lapping up the pure underworld Yin energy seeping out of the Great Blue Hole Abyss.

However, despite their burning desire to devour more Yin energy, none of the monarch beasts, including those that were capable of flight, dared to venture into the sea at all. Instead, they were all staring intently at the surface of the sea while greedily devouring Yin beasts from the coastline.

There was something extremely terrifying there!

They didn't possess intelligence, but they did possess basic instincts, and their instincts told them that venturing into the sea at this moment would spell certain death for them!

The pressure they were feeling came from a higher life form on a completely different level!

At the same time, Qin Ye flew over the monarch beasts as a streak of light, then also stopped on the coastline while panting slightly.

In the distance, Yin wind was howling violently, and a section of the sea was already bulging upward as if it were being forced up by some type of gigantic monster!

The Yin energy was so powerful that the land on the coastline was beginning to crack, and right as all of the monarch beasts were retreating in an alarmed fashion, a deafening roar abruptly rang out, following which hundreds of tentacles erupted out of the sea, sending boundless seawater flying up into the heavens.

It was impossible to describe this scene with words.

The tentacles seemed to conceal the entire sky, and it was as if several hundred mountains had risen up from the seabed while seawater fell in a torrential downpour.

All of the monarch beasts instantly cried out in alarm before laying themselves flat on the ground. A massive shadow that spanned a length of several dozen kilometers then emerged before grabbing toward the center with all its might amid a thunderous roar.

It was an extremely astonishing sight, and the wind being swept up was so fierce that Qin Ye's clothes were flapping violently, even though he was standing kilometers away.

Right at this moment, the bulge at the center of the sea reached the peak of its height, and a gargantuan pillar of water erupted straight into the heavens!

Benson's legs gave out from under him at the sight of this phenomenal scene, and he would've fallen to his knees had Qin Ye not caught him. However, he didn't even realize that Qin Ye was helping to keep him upright as he stared at the sky in a slack-jawed manner, watching as the enormous pillar of water tore through Limbo before crashing down as a torrential storm.

Is this what we have to face in battle? Is there really any chance for us to survive this?

It could be clearly seen that there were countless ships rushing into the mortal realm within the pillar of water. However, Qin Ye paid no heed to that and was instead staring intently at the surface of the sea. 10 seconds passed, then 20 seconds, then 30...

The tentacles that had spread open like a blooming flower had already since returned to the sea. 40 seconds later, another deafening roar rang out, and a figure that was several dozen kilometers in size rocketed up into the sky from within the sea. The Yin energy around it was so dense that it was impossible to make out the creature, and it was as if a dark moon had risen up from the depths.

Boom!!

Violent shockwaves crashed into the surface of the sea, instantly giving rise to tsunamis that were dozens of meters tall one after another. The tsunamis sent waves crashing in all directions, and it was as if a massive lotus flower were blooming on the sea, presenting a staggering sight that could take anyone's breath away.

For a full three minutes, Qin Ye stood in silence, watching the incredible storm taking place in front of him. Layer upon layer of dark clouds were swirling in the sky as if the gates of hell were situated right above.

Those who had never intercepted a grand script of death before would never be able to understand just how beneficial an experience it was. Furthermore, the involvement of Kraken on this occasion further raised the stakes. If he could take Kraken back to the Cathayan Underworld, then it would be the second coming of Gui Xu!

If it weren't for these lofty stakes, he would've already left the continent right after obtaining Xu Fu's notes.

Seeing as I've decided to get involved, let me see this through to the very end! qhtoiqphetiqhewitqhoewqhtpoiewhtpiewqhtoiwqehtiwqhptq He gnashed his teeth together with a determined expression. There was no turning back now, and fortune always favored the brave!

"Take your troops to the opening of the Yin Yang Mezzanine and prepare for battle!" he instructed as he turned to Benson with a serious look in his eyes. "Don't do anything rash before you receive my signal!"

……………………………………………

Mortal realm, Cape May.

The bell finally began to toll at midnight, and the followers of the White Religious Group, who had been silent and stagnant for several days, finally stood up.

After several days of living out on the streets, one would think that they would be quite weary and dispirited, but their eyes were astonishingly bright as they made their way toward the coast in an orderly fashion.

The seaside searchlights had already been switched on, illuminating the entire sea. Under the bright radiance of the searchlights, turbulent waves were rising up one after another before crashing onto the shore, sending sand, rocks, and shells flying in all directions.

The crashing waves wet their robes and even their hair, yet no one was bothered by this as they stared intently at the sea while trembling uncontrollably from excitement. Countless followers had already brought their palms together and had knelt down in a devout fashion.

By the decree of the Slumber of the Stars and the Sea, Death God Dax was going to perform a divine miracle by slaying the demon of the sea. All of Dax's followers would be able to witness this scene, as well as Dax's divine nation.

One person began to pray, and he was soon followed by tens of thousands of followers! Before long, a chorus of prayers had begun to ring out across the entire coastline.

An elderly man was kneeling on the ground with his palms joined together in an extremely devout manner, completely unbothered by the fact that he was kneeling on cold, wet sand. He would never forget that day, where he had encountered a storm out at sea. He thought that he was about to die, and he prayed with all his might to the gods, following which he was taken to the shore by a gentle breeze.

After that, he discovered a flier in his boat, and he immediately decided to become a follower of the White Religious Group.

There were countless other people just like him gathered here. They had all experienced things that couldn't be explained by science, so they were absolutely confident that a divine miracle was going to take place on this night, one that was going to be far more concrete and spectacular than the ambiguous miracles described in the bible.

His slightly murky eyes were staring intently at the surface of the sea. 20 minutes quickly passed by, but he didn't display even the slightest hint of impatience. Shortly thereafter, his devout prayers suddenly drew to a halt.

He wasn't the only one, the voices of all of the tens of thousands of followers all over the coast had died down in this instant as they stared intently at the sea. Right there in the center of the sea, it was as if a brand new continent were rising up from the depth, causing the surface of the sea to bulge drastically upward.

"My god..." The elderly man was rooted to the spot for a full five seconds before trembling as he rose to his feet. All of the followers could feel the fine hairs all over their bodies standing up on end as they stared at the sea with their mouths gaped wide open. The bulge at the center of the sea was becoming more and more massive until finally, it exploded like a volcanic eruption of seawater!

A pillar of water that was several dozen kilometers in size erupted into the sky. Its size was ultimately finite, but in the eyes of normal humans, it was like a boundless spectacle that encompassed the entire world!

"This is the divine miracle..." The elderly man's lips were trembling, and his hands were shaking so much that it was as if he were having a stroke. He immediately knelt down again as he yelled in a fervent voice, "This is the divine miracle! The divine miracle has begun!!"

"This truly is a divine miracle!"

"Almighty Death God Dax, your divine decree is about to become reality!"

"You've never deceived your followers! You are the only true god that has ever existed! You are the only god in history who has performed a divine miracle!"

"A god really does exist in this world!"

Boom!! The seawater that had erupted into the sky came crashing back down like a galaxy of stars, and at the same time, the screams and cheers of elation on the coast suddenly faded as complete silence descended upon the scene.

All of the followers' eyes widened in shock, and their entire bodies began to tremble uncontrollably. Countless followers had already clasped their hands over their own mouths, and they had forgotten how to breathe as they looked on with astonishment etched on their faces.

They were looking at a boundless fleet!

Those were all ships from the Age of Discovery that belonged in museums!

"My god..."

………………………………………………..

At the forefront of the fleet, the three death gods of the Caribbean were standing at the bow of their ship, breathing heavily with excitement. Behind them was their mighty fleet, and on either side of them were the Red Eagle Navy and the Black Shirt Navy.

They were situated several hundred meters away from the coastline, making them visible to their followers, but not clearly visible. Leoric was thoroughly basking in the sensation of being worshiped by tens of thousands of followers.

Once I become a death god, I'll be able to leave a glorious legacy in the mortal realm...

However, it wasn't the time to be thinking about things like that!

Dalton was standing on the ship at the forefront of the Red Eagle Navy's fleet, while the warlord of the Black Shirt Navy, Orel, was also standing at the front of his fleet with his hands resting on the rapier that was propped in front of him.

The Yin energy behind them was being buffeted by the fierce sea wind, as were their clothes, but neither of them took a single backward step.

Everyone could sense that a gargantuan creature was currently rushing toward them in a frenzy from down below!

It was time for the grand finale to unfold!

"Come on..." Leoric took a deep breath as he clenched his fists tightly. "This is my time!"

Amid the deathly silence, he could hear the sound of his own violently thumping heart. All of the actors had already gathered under the limelight, and all that was left was for him, the protagonist, to take the stage.

In the next instant, several dozen gigantic tentacles abruptly extended out of the sea amid a resounding boom!

"My god!!" All of the people on the coastline instantly erupted into a raucous commotion upon seeing this.

The sea monster in the divine prophecy had appeared!

It was downright unfathomable to them that such a gargantuan monster could truly exist in this world!

This was the first time that Kraken had appeared in the mortal realm, yet it had no intention of doing any sightseeing. It could sense that right up ahead was the heart that it had been pursuing for over a year! The fleet up ahead had led it on an epic chase across the world, and the prize was finally within reach!

Devouring the heart would make it the true ruler of the sea! Anyone that stood in its way had to die, including this fleet of several hundred ships!

Several dozen mountainous tentacles crashed violently toward the ships up ahead amid an earth-shattering roar, yet they were met by countless projectiles fired by Yin energy cannons!

"Fire!! Fire as quickly as you can!!!" Dalton roared frantically. Balls of crimson fire were being blasted out of the cannons behind him, then shot forth toward the oncoming gigantic tentacles like a torrential storm.

Countless balls of blue and green flames exploded in the sky, creating a dazzling line of fire above the sea in the night. That spectacular scene, along with the enraged roars of the Kraken, heralded the beginning of the grand script of death's final act!
