Chapter 318 - Taotie Mask

Countless amounts of fixed ammunition and cannon attacks began raining down on the sh_i_p_s of the Douluo Continent.

Yet the soldiers and generals didn't display any worry as the water in front of them began to vibrate.

Before an enormous tide appeared, rising up from between both sides and reaching to the sky.

Right as the attacks were crossing over causing them to crash and explode into the tidal wave.

Specs of water began scattering around the area with the people close by, getting wet from the water.

But the tide didn't get destroyed, the parts that were damaged by the explosions were already reforming.

Before it began to descend down, not collapsing on the Dou Spirit Empire sh_i_p_s but in front of them causing them to be pushed back.

"Amazing..."

"With him, aren't we basically invincible on the seas?"

"That is true."

The soldiers on the Sea God Fleet-Army were talking between each other while being dazed at Tang Wulin and his control over the sea.

From the moment the Dou Spirit Empire, battleship and mothership have been firing at them, till now.

They haven't once been hit by any attack, even the ones that came from underwater and above.

Even when they all unleashed an all-out attack that even caused Chen Xinjie to gulp.

The sea through the control of Tang Wulin protected them all from the attack.

When they figured out this wasn't working, the Dou Spirit Empire sh_i_p_s tried to send a squad above and below them.

But he never tried striking them, it was mostly defending and forcing the sh_i_p_s back.

'I wonder if they're done by now.' Thought Tang Wulin with a frown as thrust out his hand.

A pillar of water shot up from the left side, blocking soul fixed ammunition attack.

"This is the last area." Muttered the General to his squad before opening the door and walking inside.

The others followed him inside, with them looking all around, trying to spot any God Killer or any other weapons.

But to their surprise, there wasn't anything on the battleship, it was all empty.

"Sir... Did they really not bring it?"

"It seems like it, let me check with the others." Said the General as he switches his soul communicator on.

"Did you guys find the God Killer Weapons on your end?"

"Negative, all we found was there Fixed Soul Ammunitions that went up to rank six."

"Us too, we didn't find the God Killers. It seems they didn't bring it on the battlesh_i_p_s."

"I figured as much... Did you all set the bombs?"

"We did."

"We're almost done setting the last one. After this, we will begin to evacuate the area."

"Alright, once we're done setting ours we will follow behind you guys." Said the general with the others agreeing.

After that, the general hanged up his communicator before nodding at his team who began to move.

They started setting up the soul bombs at the corner of the room, while two soldiers watched the door.

While the general began calling another number in his soul communicator.

"How is it?" Questioned Chen Xinjie from the other side of the soul communicator.

"Good so far sir, we haven't found any God Killer Weapons. It seems they didn't bring any on the sh_i_p_s."

"I see, so they might be moving it on land or going towards the Demon Island."

"Uh, Supreme Commander... Don't you think we should have battlesh_i_p_s as well? They might have store-"

"They couldn't have, as the God Killer weapon can only be stored in a mothership." Said Chen Xinjie.

"Okay, sir. We are almost done here, we're just finishing up setting the bombs before we leave."

"Good, once you're done. You all must leave swiftly, we're going to push the battlesh_i_p_s and mothersh_i_p_s all the way."

"Sir-"

The General's eyes widened when he felt something struck him hard, sending him straight to the metal wall.

His whole squad saw what happened before they all quickly moved towards him while summoning their martial soul.

"Invading a person home, that's not very kind." A voice rang out from in front of them.

As a wisp of dark-purple swirl formed in front of them causing a gust of wind inside of the room.

A figure appeared in front of them, who were covered in a purple-dark robe with a taotie masked.

"Well it matters not, I suppose. I was feeling a bit hungry anyway." Said the masked man as a purple aura began to spread from his figure.

The expressions of the Sea God Fleet General and his squad began to turn grim as they felt the pressure from the masked man.

Knowing full well, that the being in front of them was something they couldn't overcome.

Regardless if they brought hundreds of soldiers with them.

"Crap!" Chen Xinjie frowned as he heard the words of the masked man through his radio.

This, of course, drew the attention of Tang Wulin who glanced at him with a questioning look.

"They didn't find the God Killer in there but while they were setting the bombs, one of the squads ran into an enemy." Said Chen Xinjie, causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"Then it's about time I go."

Just as he said this, Tang Wulin began to twirl the Sea God trident around him, causing the sea to begin to tremble.

Before it began to change.

A whirlpool was being formed around the Dou Spirit Empire's whole naval force.

Sea was beginning to rotate and twist, rising and towering above the whole naval forces.

All of the soldiers watched in shock as they saw the sea rising above them, reaching the height of a thousand meters.

"Just... What are you trying to do."Muttered Chen Xinjie with his eyes wide.

"A bit of intervention, I will leave this here, while I go retrieve them." Said Tang Wulin as he placed the Sea God Trident down on the deck.

"...Is that safe?"

"Leaving it here? Yea, unless one of you all are dumb enough to try and touch it." Said Tang Wulin with a faint smile.

Already imagining the fate of the person who tried touching a divine weapon without said weapons permission or proving their worth.

'Wonder if they really will explode with their soul being completely erased? Meh, thoughts for later.'

"Which mothership is it?"

"The one on the right."

"I will be right back."

"Alright." Said Chen Xinjie with a nod as he saw Tang Wulin dived into the sea, his figure plowing through the water.

As Tang Wulin found himself in the water, he felt the sea comfort and love flooding his whole body.

With his spiritual sense expanding even further than before, alongside his control over sea getting better.

Using his control over the water, he propelled himself straight towards the left mothership.

He forced a whole through the spiraling whirlpool that was surrounding the naval forces before closing it back.

'Up we go.'

As he found himself under the battleship, with his spiritual sense already finding the location of the squad.

He propelled himself upwards, puncturing the bottom of the mothership and through the steel floors.

His figure was being shrouded in spiraling water that sheltered him from the scraps of metal, each time he broke through.

Before it scattered away as he reached the room where the squadron and masked man was at.

"Oh? It seems we have company."Muttered the Taotie Masked person as they glanced behind to see the figure of Tang Wulin.

"You sure like to take your time." Said Tang Wulin as he saw one of the soldiers with their neck being held by the Masked Man hand.

"I like to savor my meal." Said the Taotie Masked person causing Tang Wulin to narrow his eyes.

"Still, we didn't expect to see you soon or at this stage."

Tang Wulin didn't say anything to the figure as he launched himself forward turning into a blur.

The Taotie Masked Man swiftly threw the soldier that he was holding towards Tang Wulin who flipped over him.

Before propelling himself again, while the scattered water behind him began to rise up, making an arm to catch the soldier.

"Aren't you full of tricks?"

"Shut up." Said Tang Wulin as he appeared in front of the Masked Person with his leg already lashing out.

The Taotie Masked Man wasn't able to react in time from Tang Wulin's terrifying speed.

Tang Wulin's right leg moved, releasing a spiral wave of power, purple waves of destruction energy exploded out, interweaving around his leg.

Before it crashed into the Taotie Masked Man c_h_e_s_t, the sounds of bones being broken rang through the room.

Yet it was at that moment when Tang Wulin's eyes slightly narrowed while the Taotie Masked Man figure trembled.

Before Blood began to leak out from the mask and their figure was sent flying towards the steel wall.

The whole room shooked as the Taotie Masked Man was sent flying through the steel wall.

While this was happening, Tang Wulin was furrowing his brows.

'Did I just imagine that? Or did he try and...'

"No, you didn't think wrong. He was manipulating matter on a subatomic level; it seems he was trying to shatter your leg." Zeref's voice rang out causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"So something similar to what Fafnir tried?"

"More people are coming." Muttered Tang Wulin as he glances behind him to see the steel door opening up.

He saw fifteen soldiers of the Dou Spirit Empire entering the room, armed with weapons.

Yet Tang Wulin didn't give them a chance to aim or fire at him, as his figure appeared right in front of them.

Before he created spirling orbs of destruction energy around him and the squad of soldiers and made them explode.

The Dou Spiti Empire soldiers couldn't release a scream as their body was disintegrated and erased.

Then Tang Wulin thrust his fist backward and clashed with another fist causing cracks inside of the room.

Blood splash, with the sounds of flesh bursting.

"What a terrifying body, not only is it resisting and defying my attempt to dismantle your body. But it is also able to suppress and crush my body instead," Said the Taotie Masked Man with his tone having a hint of disbelief.

This was the first time he ever encountered a situation where instead of his opponent's body being broken.

It was his that was broken and crushed.

"You're not the only one who can crush another body." Said Tang Wulin as he lashed out with a leg.

"Quit playing, the way you crushed my arm, is far different than the way I was supposed to crush yours."

The Taotie Masked Man moves backward, evading the leg of Tang Wulin.

'As if my body can be crushed that easily.' Thought Tang Wulin with an inward scoff.

It wasn't just because of him having a God-Level body but the makeup of his body.

With a body that was forged by the Golden Dragon King, which gave the wielder an extremely terrifying amount of defense.

This expands to resistance as well and not just a normal soul master resistance but the resistance that covers all power.

Combine a body like that with his other Slayer Form which gives him passive resistance to all attacks except physical ones.

Then the thought of breaking, let alone giving Tang Wulin any lasting damage is almost laughable.

With just his body, nothing in this world under the God-Level can actually kill him.
