Chapter 1453 – Pummeling Technique

Sure enough, the assault from the sharks suddenly stopped. After that, the sharks seemed to be confused for a moment before beginning to disperse, just like that. ‘This…’

Carion and Briget were confused as to what just happened. ‘Why did the attacks suddenly stop?’

However, Rean looked in a certain direction before asking, ‘You’re losing your touch, no? How come you took so long to kill that shark?’

It was then that Roan appeared from within the sea of dispersing Blade Tail Sharks. ‘Kill? Who said anything about killing?’

Roan then turned around before using his Divine Soul Power to make his voice spread throughout the water. “What are you waiting there for? Come out already. If you think I was cruel a moment ago, don’t wait and see me get irritated.”

“Y-Yes! I’m coming! I’m coming!” It was then that the giant Blade Tail Shark appeared in front of their vision. He had countless deep cuts on his body as Dark Element seemed to be oozing out of quite a few of them. It was hard to tell why he was still alive. “I’m here, m-m-mas…ter…”

It was none other than the Transition Realm Blade Tail Shark! His sorrowful state showed just how bad of a time he had in Roan’s hands.

Rean smiled after seeing that, saying, “Oh, I see. It’s been some time since we used the Pummeling Taming Method. I just didn’t expect it would work on a sentient demon beast.”

Roan nodded, saying, “It’s because I focused a lot more on the pain than the benefits. Well, there’s also the fact this guy was simply too weak. He tried to use the Stage Seven and Eight Sharks to take me down, but he only helped me get a lot of Demon Cores for selling later. I might use a few in my pills as well, actually.” Roan then showed a hand full of Demon Cores, all of them brimming with Demonic Energy.

“Oh! They look delicious! Can I have some?” Suddenly, Kentucky appeared by Roan’s side like a ghost. 

Roan narrowed his eyes in response. “At your current level of strength, would these Stage Seven and Eight Demon Beast Cores be of any help?”

Kentucky shook his head, telling him outright, “No… but they’re still very tasty!”

Roan then put the Demon Cores away after that. “Then forget it. I’m not operating a charity here. Next time, you go out and get the cores yourself.”

“But… you guys left me to protect Falangia, Luan, and Rafatia. I couldn’t join the battle. That’s not fair.” Kentucky obviously felt wronged when he heard that.

Roan pondered over it for a bit, soon thinking that Kentucky was right. “Fine! You can have half of the Demon Cores we get from now on in this place. However, you can only eat them after we leave the Under Desert Sea.”

Kentucky’s eyes lit up once he heard that. “Great! I’ll make sure to keep these three well protected.”

Little did they notice, but Briget and Carion felt like they were losing their minds. ‘Just how ridiculous are these two?’ By now, they had already begun to feel like idiots. They were afraid of Rean and Roan attacking them at some point, so they were always ready to defend themselves. However, there was simply no need to be afraid. That’s because if the twins decided to attack, they would be 100% dead. They were absolutely no match for those twins, plus they wouldn’t be able to flee either. In a certain way, it could be said that the twins simply didn’t care about their strength, only that they knew the path with the least of problems.

“Ahem…” Carion then tried to recover as he looked at the submissive Transition Realm Blade Tail Shark. “Is it really fine to let him stay alive?”

Roan snorted in response, replying, “That depends if he wants to cultivate again in his life or not.”

The shark bitterly smiled when he heard that. “I won’t betray you… I promise.” No way in hell did he want to go through the same suffering again. Dark Element was just too terrifying. Not to mention that Roan himself was just way too strong. While fighting him, he killed most of his lower-level subordinates, and he did all of that with ease.

However, there was another reason why he wouldn’t betray Roan. That’s because Roan showed him that he could use Dark and Light Element to help his internal injuries. As a demon beast, he accumulated numerous long-lasting internal defects. Things that he couldn’t be healed anymore until he was much, much wealthier. Now, the opportunity to get rid of all of those things appeared in front of him. So what if he had to be Roan’s plaything for a while? It was better than dying, while he would get many benefits once he brought the twins’ group out of the Under Desert Sea.

Carion wasn’t aware how Roan got the demon beast’s loyalty or whether the shark’s loyalty was true or not. The important thing was that they were safe. “I see… well, we should leave this place. The entire area is filled with the blood of the dead sharks. I’m sure many other aquatic demon beasts will gather here soon.”

The Blade Tail Shark King shook his head, saying, “Don’t worry. With me alive, the other Transition Realm aquatic demon beasts won’t get close.”

Rean was happy to hear that. “Oh! That’s definitely useful. By the way, what should we call you?”

The shark narrowed his eyes, telling them, “I don’t really have a name. It has only been a few years since I got my sentience, so I’ve never thought about that.”

Rean didn’t mind. “Alright, calling you Blade Tail Shark King all the time is annoying. From now on, you’re Sharky.”

“Sh-Shar…ky?” Sharky didn’t like that name very much.

However, Roan didn’t seem to be very patient about name choices. “So be it. He won’t stay with us for long anyway, so Sharky it is.”

Sharky could only sadly accept it as he definitely wouldn’t go against Roan’s decision. “Ahem… then, can you give me some time to recover before continuing? I’m in pretty bad shape.”

Roan then looked at Rean, soon telling him, “Heal Sharky up.. We’ll be leaving right after.”
