Because the Deep Sea Demon Whale King could materialize its armor.
It transformed its million-year cultivation foundation into a semi-Divinity armor and a semi-Divinity tool to enhance its combat power in its semi-human form.
This meant that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in its semi-human form possessed power equally as strong as its true form.
However, by having the optimal combat holy body in human form, it undoubtedly made the Demon Whale King even more difficult to deal with, effectively making its strength even greater.
"Come again, humans!"
"I will surely kill you all! I will devour your energy!"
"As long as I devour your energy, I, the Demon Whale King, might just become an unprecedented Demon Divinity!"
"Stepping into the realm of Divinity!"
"Die!"
Bang!
The Demon Whale King slammed the eight-edged plum blossom hammer in its hand, and in the next second, instantly charged towards Qian Daoliu and the other three.
"Demon Divinity?" Lin Yu shook his head upon hearing this.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was infinitely close to a million years old, and its physical body had cultivated to ninety-nine percent of a Divinity's body, just one step away from truly becoming one, but this step was an insurmountable limit that it could never break through in its entire life.
This step prevented it from achieving the Divinity realm, no matter how much it exhausted itself.
The pitiful Deep Sea Demon Whale King would never know that it desperately cultivated and yearned to become a Divinity but could never achieve it, no matter how hard it tried.
Because a long time ago.
After the collective fall of Beast Divinity and the strongest Beast Divinity, the Dragon Divinity, was killed, the God Realm set a rule: unless the Dragon Divinity reappeared and the Dragon Race revived, Spirit Beast could not become a Divinity.
Therefore, a Spirit Beast like the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, no matter how heaven-defying, could not become a Beast Divinity.
The Human Race Divinity had long since sealed off the path for Spirit Beast to become a Divinity.
What's more, today the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was surely doomed. Watching the Demon Whale King, who had already transformed into a semi-human form and was fiercely battling Qian Daoliu and the four High Priest, Lin Yu was also ready to make his move.
"Ugh ah ah ah!"
Bang bang bang bang!
The Demon Whale King swung its eight-edged plum blossom hammer, fiercely smashing at Gold Crocodile Douluo and Qian Daoliu. The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce close-quarters battle, fighting without pause.
In no time, the two sides had fought for three hundred rounds.
They fought for several hours.
Seeing that even after switching to its semi-human form, it couldn't eliminate these humans, the Demon Whale King finally had a crooked idea: "These two humans are really troublesome, and the other two are too much in the way!"
"Then this King will kill you first!"
The Demon Whale King finally stopped choosing to directly confront Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo, preparing to take the opportunity to eliminate Azure Luan Douluo and Light Feather Douluo first.
It feigned another attack on Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo, but in the next second, it suddenly shifted its target, charging straight towards Azure Luan Douluo in the back.
"Go to hell!"
The Demon Whale King first threw an eight-edged plum blossom hammer, instantly smashing towards Azure Luan Douluo. Its body also erupted with its strongest speed and powerful force, intending to instantly kill Azure Luan Douluo.
And as a 98th-level Douluo, how could Azure Luan Douluo withstand a powerful blow from a near-semi-Divinity combat power?
But Lin Yu and the others had already anticipated this situation.
At that instant, Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo did not choose to immediately support Qingluan, but instead mobilized their power again to pursue and attack the Demon Whale King.
"These two 99th-level humans, they actually don't choose to assist their own people and still dare to attack me? Do they think this 98th-level expert can withstand a single blow from my Demon Whale?"
"In that case, you human with a bird Spirit will die first!"
The Demon Whale King looked disdainful. It was confident that while instantly killing Azure Luan Douluo, it could simultaneously defend against the attacks from Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo from behind.
But it was also at this moment that Lin Yu finally made his move.
"Die!"
Just as the eight-edged plum blossom hammer was about to smash into Azure Luan Douluo, a sword radiating endless flames rapidly approached from behind Azure Luan Douluo.
Whoosh!
That flaming sword directly pierced into the eight-edged plum blossom hammer, blocking the attack for Azure Luan Douluo.
The sword and hammer collided fiercely in mid-air, generating an incredibly terrifying energy impact. The flaming sword was not damaged in the slightest and even exuded supreme divine might and divine force, suppressing the semi-Divinity-grade eight-edged plum blossom hammer.
And in the next second, it sent the eight-edged plum blossom hammer flying.
"What!"
"How can a mere mortal tool block my eight-edged plum blossom hammer? No! This is not a mortal tool, this is! This is a Divinity tool!"
"How does this kid have a Divinity tool!"
"Could it be..." The Demon Whale King quickly thought of something, and in its surprise, its eyes immediately showed excitement in the next second: "Could this kid be a Divinity's successor!"
But while excited, it didn't delay, wielding another eight-edged plum blossom hammer in its hand, and once again smashing towards Azure Luan Douluo at speed.
"Paragon Golden Body!"
Clang!
Bang! Boom boom!
Lin Yu's figure had already blocked in front of Azure Luan Douluo, and he had blocked the Demon Whale King's full-force hammer blow.
But it was this hammer blow that finally made the Demon Whale King sense the aura of Divinity on Lin Yu!
"Divinity! It's the aura of Divinity!"
"This human kid is indeed a Divinity's successor, hahaha! Good! This King will devour you, this Divinity's successor, and devour the divine force accumulated within your body."
"This King will surely become an unprecedented Demon Divinity!"
"Ah ha ha ha ha!"
After confirming that Lin Yu was a Divinity's successor, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King became completely excited and thrilled, its eyes already filled with endless greed.
It knew that devouring the energy of these powerful humans had a very low chance of breaking through to become a Divinity.
But if it could devour a Divinity's successor, the divine force within a Divinity's successor, the Demon Whale King truly felt that it could break through and enter the Divinity level in one fell swoop!
This made it completely excited.
"Deep Sea Demon Whale King! You cannot become a Divinity." Lin Yu looked coldly at the almost insane and greedy Demon Whale King in front of him.
"Kid, what do you know!"
"This King's physical body has already cultivated to ninety-nine percent of a Divinity's body. One more step and this King's physical body can enter the Divinity level! Devouring the divine force accumulated within your body! This King will surely achieve Demon Divinity!"
"You are daydreaming."
Lin Yu's majestic and awe-inspiring voice resonated, and his entire aura already carried a hint of a Divinity's divine might.
In the next second, Lin Yu was unharmed by the Demon Whale King's shockwave, and the Demon Whale King quickly turned to defend against Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo's attacks, completely ignoring Lin Yu behind it.
Because in its eyes, an 80th-level, seven-ring Spirit Master posed no threat to it.
But this time, its underestimation would become the most fatal key in this battle for the Demon Whale King.
"Water Divinity tool, Water God's Heavenly Scepter!"
Dong!
As the Demon Whale King resisted the attacks of Qian Daoliu and Gold Crocodile Douluo, Lin Yu pulled out a second Divinity tool. The blue scepter trembled in the void, and in an instant, countless seawater surged like waves, beginning to furiously gather within the Water God's Heavenly Scepter.
Seeing this scene, the Demon Whale King immediately felt its pores prickle with dread: "Another Divinity tool..."
"How is this possible!"
