I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 1707 - 935: Helen’s Ordeal (Part 2)

Soon, Helen arrived not far from the Legendary Fishman.As Helen approached, she increasingly felt the terrifying presence emanating from the Legendary Fishman.

It was as if countless needles were constantly pricking her nerves, warning Helen of the extreme danger this fishman posed.

Besides that feeling, Helen seemed to sense a faint aura of death from the Legendary Fishman, causing her to shudder.

Wiping the salty sea water off her face, Helen shouted loudly at the Legendary Fishman:

"This is Kane Floating City’s command area!"

"No matter who you are, stop your actions immediately!"

Upon hearing Helen’s voice, the Legendary Fishman slowly turned his head, his icy gaze fixed on Helen.

In the instant the fishman locked eyes on her, Helen felt as if the blood in her body was instantly frozen, a bone-chilling cold permeating throughout.

It was like being in a graveyard, being pulled into the embrace of death by countless undead.

At that moment, the fishman slowly said:

"Kane Floating City?"

"Hehe..."

"You!"

Just as Helen was about to say more, the fishman gave her no chance.

A glint of cold light flickered in the fishman’s eyes, and he abruptly raised his left hand, pointing fiercely towards the Hurricane.

Instantly, the already raging ocean waves seemed to receive some command, boiling over in an instant.

Countless ocean waves converged madly from all directions, twisting together, and within moments, formed an extraordinarily large trident.

Each prong of the trident, formed from the ocean water, gleamed with a ghostly blue light, carrying a terrifying momentum as it thrust fiercely at the Hurricane.

As it passed, the air was ripped apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

Helen, sensing this deadly threat the moment the fishman moved, shouted loudly:

"Defense!"

Other crew members swiftly sprang into action.

The myriad magic runes on the Hurricane’s hull instantly lit up, like stars twinkling in the night sky.

The magic runes intertwined to gather immense magic power, forming a cyan shield composed of wind elements at the bow of the Hurricane.

This shield emitted a gentle yet incredibly resilient aura, enveloping the entire Hurricane as if it were an unbreakable fortress.

At the instant the trident collided with the cyan shield, time seemed to stand still.

Immediately, a terrifying shockwave spread furiously from the collision point to the surroundings.

The massive whirlpool in the sea was instantly destroyed by the impact of this force.

The extremely dark clouds in the sky were also torn open, golden sunlight piercing through the clouds like a sword, shining onto the surging sea, revealing the blue sky beyond.

Pushed by the shockwave, the sails of the Hurricane billowed immediately.

The entire ship, amidst violent shaking, retreated swiftly along the path of the shockwave like an arrow shot from a bow.

This was also a method of self-protection and escape from danger for the Hurricane.

Amidst the terrifying shockwave, the Legendary Fishman stood as firm as a majestic mountain on the sea, his form unwavering.

Just as the Hurricane was about to leave, an unexpected turn arose.

A rope formed of sea water shot out from the ocean like a nimble snake.

It moved astonishingly fast, drawing an arc in the air, passing through the magic protection of the Hurricane, and precisely wrapping around Helen’s right hand.

Before Helen had time to react, she felt a tremendous pulling force, pulling her instantly off the Hurricane.

"Ha~"

As she was about to fall into the sea, a sharp blade appeared in Helen’s hand, directly severing the water rope bound to her right hand.

She, like the fishman not far away, stood upon the sea, retreating several steps before stabilizing her form.

This was the talent of Helen, the Sea Favored, allowing her to move freely on the sea with considerable advantage.

However, Helen did not relax at all, and instead, her mood continued to sink.

She certainly didn’t believe that the Sea Favored talent alone could help her defeat the Legendary Fishman before her.

To Helen, without the protection of the Hurricane, the formidable aura of the Legendary Fishman was about to crush her.

I cannot fall here!

Helen gritted her teeth, stood upright, and faced the Legendary Fishman.

The fishman seemed to look at her as if she were an ant, with a hint of playfulness, saying:

"I know you, you’re called Helen, right?"

"You are the disciple of the Kane Floating City Controller, and you’re quite valuable to me."

"I wonder how much your teacher would sacrifice for you?"

"What?!"

The words of the fishman before her shocked Helen.

This legend actually knew her.

And it seemed his purpose was her?

He wants to use me to threaten Lis?

Realizing this, Helen instantly steadied her resolve.

No matter what, she mustn’t let the other party succeed.

Even if it means death!

Thinking this, Helen directly thrust her longsword into the sea below.

She had already notified Sky City, reinforcements should arrive soon.

Helen hesitated no longer, as a blue light appeared on her body and surged along the longsword directly into the sea below.

Then, the sea seemed to respond to Helen’s call, instantly stirring.

At the same time, Helen’s body seemed to transform into sea water, merging with the ocean.

This was one of the abilities Candice taught her.

Though not Divine Arts from the Ocean Church, it was equally practical and powerful.

More importantly, this series of abilities was exceptionally suited to Helen’s Sea Favored talent, allowing her to harness the power of the sea to the fullest.

This was one of the reasons Helen had never failed in hunting pirates across the Pearl Sea.

Of course, Helen did not take the initiative to strike at the fishman before her but instead hid her form in the sea.

What Helen needed to do now was to hide herself well and delay as much time as possible.

The fishman witnessed this and showed no surprise, even watching Helen’s actions quietly.

Helen continued to dive deep into the ocean, trying to distance herself from the fishman as much as possible.

At this moment, Helen suddenly felt the surrounding sea water undergo a change.

The sea water she controlled and guided seemed to lose its original affinity in an instant.

At that moment, it seemed the sea had suddenly become Helen’s enemy, firmly suppressing her in place.

The chains formed by sea water bound Helen’s body, raising her to the surface to face the fishman.

Is this... Domain Power?

Helen struggled to break free from the sea water chains but found it completely useless.

Her talent seemed to have lost all effect, utterly suppressed by the Domain Power emanating from the fishman.

"Don’t struggle."

The fishman said with a smile.

But that smile, with its bloodthirsty look, seemed extremely sinister and terrifying to Helen.

"I didn’t expect Lis’s disciple not to have mastered the Extraordinary Domain yet; otherwise, you might still have some energy to struggle."

"So, have you been abandoned by Lis?"

Upon hearing this, Helen wanted to retort but was unable to speak, her body bound by the sea water chains.

Extraordinary Domain!

Why have I not mastered the Extraordinary Domain!

A surge of determination filled Helen’s heart.

If she could grasp this key to legend, she might still have a chance.

The Legendary Fishman before her must have mastered an Extraordinary Domain related to the ocean, or perhaps a Legendary Domain, which was why her Sea Favored talent was completely ineffective.

No!

I cannot give up!

Helen noticed the fishman legend was seemingly considering something, no longer paying attention to her.

Since the chains binding her were a form of Extraordinary Domain power, then...

At that moment, Helen sensed a peculiar power spreading around her body.

It was something she had never felt before.

Helen dared not hesitate, calming her inner anxiety, attuning to the wondrous power surrounding her body.
