Chapter 943

[You have killed the Deep Assassin with Death Magic. Some of the miasma it carried in its body has been converted to Death Miasma and absorbed into the body.]

[You have killed the Deep Assassin with Death Magic. Some of the miasma it carried in its body has been converted to Death Miasma and absorbed into the body.]

[You have killed the Deep Warlock with Death Magic. Some of the miasma it carried in its body has been converted to Death Miasma and absorbed into the body.]

The Deep Assassins and Deep Warlock died due to the immense power that Death magic afflicted to their bodies. So powerful that the miasma that is once from a dark god has been partially converted to Death Miasma where only servants of the God of Death Abaddon can absorb it through their bodies.

Not all beings affected by death magic will be transformed to death miasma as it also rarely happens. In fact, the death miasma that was converted is only about 5% of the total miasma that the deep assassins and deep warlocks have. This is extremely beneficial to Levin Cloud that has more life energy compared to death energy.

Once the Deep Assassins and Deep Warlock has died, Peridot and Kabrakan cancelled the spells that they are channeling. The two plopped down on the ground as they lost all their mana just to pin the enemies to the wall. The apparition of the tree of life and death, Yewdrassil, also receded back into a seed and vanished into a rift in space.

Levin Cloud's priestly robe returned back to its white and green color scheme as all the death energy receded back to his body as well. He made sure to not leak his death energy as that is incredibly harmful to the surrounding as taught by the dark elves.

In fact, death energy must be masterfully contained or else it could leak which can change the surroundings. This is testament to the fact that the first thing that all Priests of Death master is the containment of death energy. Thankfully, races of the Asmodian lineage can perfectly contain any energy as long as they are transformed using that energy.

The ice that protected the Splash of the Wilde melted but the impurities in the divine artifact fragment are still there. External intervention is needed to help it get purified, but Kabrakan alone cannot be able to do it. The Splash of the Wilde needed to be purified with the help of a hydromorph.

Kabrakan wanted to protest that he alone is enough as he already has the Soil of the Wilde, but it seems that the Splash of the Wilde is tied with the hydromorphs. The divine artifact fragment is actually sentient and knows that it needs to bless the hydromorphs before going away just like the Soil of the Wilde.

"The divine artifact fragment said that we need the aid of a merfolk royalty in order to cleanse its impurities." Kabrakan stated.

"If that is the case then our best bet would be Princess Ariella. She seems to be the most decent among the royal family." Peridot suggested and even Levin Cloud agreed.

"But how can we locate her? She is not fighting outside which means she must have already evacuated from the area." Kabrakan asked.

"Easy. We just need to follow the seed that I given her. To think the tracker seed that I have given her when we met would be useful like this. That seed is treated as a gem because of its beauty but it actually contained some of my lingering energy. I can still detect it, but it is faint." Levin Cloud stated as he already planned for this just in case he needs to 'retrieve' more.

"To think that you planned ahead. I thought you were hitting on her." Peridot stated as she almost hit Levin Cloud from the previous interaction.

Just as the trio is about to move, a large piercing screech travelled throughout the whole kingdom. Dark Bubbles suddenly started to manifest on the seabed as something sinister crept up to the heart of every living being in the kingdom. Not only the trio felt it but also all the merfolk that has yet to escape.

"Dark Lord! Help me once more! I shall sacrifice one of my tentacles!" Ursalla shouted as one of her tentacles suddenly detached but it did not regenerate.

The large tentacle then split into one hundred fragment and numerous Deep Assassins suddenly manifested from them. When about fifty Deep Assassins manifested, the ones fighting outside could feel a dark ominous presence loom over the kingdom that even made the leviathans tremble a little. Only when this presence suddenly vanished did the fighting resumed once again.

The fifty Deep Assassins did not help Ursalla with her fight, but they all bolted to the location of the Splash of the Wilde. Levin Cloud suddenly sensed that numerous miasma filled monsters are coming their way. He suddenly urged everyone to find Princess Ariella fast as those monsters are fixated on the Splash of the Wilde that has traces of the dark god's miasma.

"Hurry! She is not far from here. There are numerous monsters that are coming for that. We must purify it immediately so that they cannot locate it." Levin Cloud shouted as Peridot transformed into her dragon form and swam as if her life defended on it.

Due to the Splash of the Wilde not being able to be stored in the inventory, the trio could be said to be holding a walking beacon for dark god followers. They will only be able to lose them if they can store the Splash of the Wilde inside the inventory. As fast as Peridot could swim, it is still difficult to carry two grown men especially if one is of a large build.

"She is there! There is a hidden passageway in that floor space! Enter there. I will buy you as much time as I can." Levin Cloud stated as he broke free from Peridot's claws to guard the entrance.

'',

Peridot looked at Levin Cloud with a determined gaze and took off the lid. Levin Cloud will act as a first line of defense while Peridot will guard the other side. When Peridot closed the lid of the floor, she froze the entrance so that it could at least stall for more time if Levin Cloud were to fall.

Levin Cloud could no longer use death magic as the cooldowns for the spells are at minimum two hours. He also does not have the support of the tree of life and death which means the damage that he dealt earlier will not be as powerful. He started to cover the entire room with sea plants since he will use life energy to combat the incoming threats.

Levin Cloud filled the room with sea plants while also covering the entrance with thick and heavy plants. He wants to buy as much time as he needed because even, he does not have confidence that he will survive. He has no confidence because he saw about forty Deep Assassins in the room surrounding him.

"I guess I will be sea food. I hope you guys are vegetarian." Levin Cloud stated as his body started to get covered in green light.

"Your majesty! Those abominations are headed towards the passage!" One of the merfolk generals reported to King Neptune through shouting.

The struggling King Neptune knew what the merfolk general stated as his precious daughters are clearly there. By their demeanor, he knew that they would volunteer to be last to escape since he raised him that way. King Neptune, in his whale form, suddenly exploded his ferocity that freed him from the entanglement of Ursalla.

King Neptune is about to burst with speed to kill off the Deep Assassins, but another leviathan suddenly flanked him from the side. This leviathan is not the same as the first ones that Ursalla called for. This leviathan is in the form of a mixture of an arrow and an electric eel. This leviathan is called Spear Spark which is one of the deadliest leviathans that are said to have been extinct.

The sharp nose of the Spear Spark managed to actually pierce the skin of King Neptune which he did not think is possible. Even King Neptune's Sea King will not be able to do that as his defenses are powered by his Ferocity that is a lot.

"How is this possible!" King Neptune stated in a muffled voice.

"Hahaha! You did not expect this!" Ursalla laughed maniacally as she waited for this to happen.

She perfectly hid this other leviathan that she raised in order to kill King Neptune if she had the chance. She wanted to kill him, but King Neptune managed to react in time to only get pierced in his side. Still, the skin of a whale beast kin got pierced and blood oozed out of it. Upon seeing this, the Sea King suddenly roared out loud and the waters suddenly became chaotic.
