Chapter 2396  Defeating the True Emperor of the Seas

"Hahaha! That kid is actually doing it! He's actually forcefully extracting that imposter's Blood Essence!" The Primal Sovereign of the Seas couldn't contain its amusement and burst out laughing.

"That Primal Monarch! He actually gave so much power to a mere human! Just what in heaven's name is he thinking?!"

Before Yuan revealed such a power, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas had not fully believed his claim of being the Primal Monarch's adopted son. Now, after witnessing Yuan wield the power, all doubt vanished like smoke. In fact, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas was even shocked that the Primal Monarch would grant a mere human such a terrifying power. "S-STOP! STOP IT RIGHT THIS INSTANT!" The True Emperor of the Seas exclaimed in terror as it sensed its Blood Essence being formed and forcefully being extracted.

Of course, Yuan completely ignored its plea and continued to extract its Blood Essence.

With no other choice, the True Emperor of the Seas turned and fled in sheer panic. Though it could not escape into the water, it could still try to put distance between itself and Yuan.

It hoisted its massive, severed tentacles into the air and slammed them down like makeshift legs, scrambling away in a sight so desperate and absurd that it would have been laughable were it not so pitiful.

"Hahaha!" The Primal Sovereign of the Seas' laughter grew louder and louder as it watched the True Emperor of the Seas' desperate attempt. As for Yuan, he didn't even bother giving chase and merely muttered a single command.

"Halt."

In an instant, the True Emperor of the Seas obeyed Yuan's command and halted its movements.

"T-This power! Primal Monarch?! What is your relationship with the Primal Monarch?!" The True Emperor of the Seas finally recognized Yuan's frightening power.

"Did the Primal Monarch tell you to do this?! Why?! WHYYY?!" "The Primal Monarch has nothing to do with this," Yuan calmly replied. "As I said from the very beginning, I am here to settle a personal grudge."

"BUT I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER DOING ANYTHING TO YOU!" The True Emperor of the Seas roared in anger.

Yuan suddenly tapped his forehead with a finger, drawing out a dim, glowing orb from within. With a flick of his arm, he sent the orb streaking across the sky before it plunged into the True Emperor of the Seas.

What he had just bestowed upon it was a fragment of his memories—the moment of its own crimes.

After receiving the memory, the True Emperor of the Seas became as stiff as a rock. It was so shocked by the memory's contents that it became a statue. It could hardly believe that a single act—toying with a small group of people out of sheer boredom hundreds of millions of years ago—had led to this very moment… to its current humiliation and impending downfall.

"You're killing me over something like that?! I didn't even kill you!" the True Emperor of the Seas roared, snapping out of its daze.

"No," Yuan replied coldly, "but you killed my partner's family… and I would even say it indirectly led to her death later."

He paused briefly before continuing, his voice lowering. "That said… If I'm being honest, this is nothing more than a petty act of revenge. I was too weak—too pathetic—to do anything back then. So now… I'm making up for that weakness."

"That's utterly ridiculous! Are you really going to invoke the wrath of a Prime Eternal over something like that?!"

"This is not my first time offending an Eternal, and I doubt it will be the last," Yuan admitted.

"SCREW YOOOOUUUU!!!" The True Emperor of the Seas released its loudest roar yet.

The next moment, Yuan finished forming the True Emperor of the Seas' Blood Essence and extracted it.

But instead of consuming it instantly, Yuan stored it inside a glass vial.

"Seeing that you're still alive…" Yuan remarked, his gaze cold as he observed the True Emperor of the Seas' sluggish movements, "I wonder if I can extract more than just a single drop of Blood Essence from you?"

"YOU DARE?!"

"Why wouldn't I dare?!"

Yuan immediately attempted to extract another drop of Blood Essence from the True Emperor of the Seas. However, it felt as though he were trying to squeeze juice from an already dried fruit.

"Most beings can only produce a single drop of Blood Essence in their lifetime," the Primal Sovereign of the Seas suddenly remarked. "If you forcefully try, it'll only devour their longevity."

"Is that so? In that case…"

A cold smile suddenly tugged at Yuan's lips, sending chills down the True Emperor of the Seas' boneless being.

"Let's keep at it until you're dead!" Yuan continued using Forbidden Blood Extraction on the True Emperor of the Seas in an attempt to kill it using this method.

With its Blood Essence forcibly extracted, the True Emperor of the Seas had been weakened to such an extent that it could barely move, let alone resist.

Yet Yuan showed no mercy and continued.

Eventually, with its lifeforce completely drained, the True Emperor of the Seas collapsed onto the surface of the sea, its immense body finally falling still.

However, even after its death, Yuan was not finished with it.

The next moment, Yuan activated another technique.

<Absolute Core Creation!>

Using his second forbidden technique, Yuan turned the True Emperor of the Seas' corpse into a monster core!

Meanwhile, somewhere within the boundless Starry Sky, a certain entity sensed the exact moment the True Emperor of the Seas perished and released a cry filled with piercing anguish.

"Who?! Who dared to kill my cute little pet?!"

This entity immediately set its sights on the direction of the Demonic Realm.

Then, it raised a finger and pointed it toward the world.

"I shall expunge you from this universe! Spear of Extinction!" A radiant glow gathered at its fingertip, swiftly condensing into a spear-like construct before it shot forward.

The attack tore through space itself, piercing the fabric of reality as it traversed the void—hurtling toward Yuan's location at an unimaginable speed.
