Chapter 2406  Consuming the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ Blood Essence

‘Primal Sovereign of the Seas… just what the hell are you?!’ Yuan cried inwardly after realizing that its Blood Essence was even stronger than the Dragon God.

When he recalled how he nearly died from absorbing the Dragon God’s Blood Essence, only surviving because of Dragon Goddess Yeyou, Yuan prepared for a similar if not even worse experience. Shortly after consuming the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ Blood Essence, Yuan once again found himself plunged into the abyss of the ocean.

Yet, despite the familiar sensation from when he had absorbed the True Emperor of the Seas’ Blood Essence, there was something fundamentally different about these waters—something far deeper, far more profound.

Moreover, instead of crushing him beneath unbearable pressure, Yuan was stunned to find the water gently embracing him. There was not a trace of pain, only a soothing warmth, as though he were being cradled within a soft, flowing blanket of liquid.

Suddenly, images began flashing within Yuan’s mind—fragments of memories that did not belong to him, but to the Primal Sovereign of the Seas.

Within those memories, Yuan witnessed the very beginning of the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ existence.

At the moment of its birth, it was no larger than a speck of dust, and standing before it loomed a colossal, beastly silhouette, its presence vast and incomprehensible… likely its creator.

Over the passage of millions of years, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas grew in both strength and size. Yet its form bore no resemblance to the one Yuan recognized.

Rather than a goldfish, it appeared as something amorphous and undefined—a shifting mass of colorless, formless substance, like a living sphere of translucent slime.

Eventually, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas encountered its first prey, and with it, felt the instinct to hunt for the very first time.

When it successfully claimed its prey, it also experienced something entirely new… the sensation of satisfaction, and the intoxicating thrill of delight.

After consuming its prey, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ formless body began to shift, reshaping itself into the very form of the creature it had just devoured.

With this new appearance, it pursued its next hunt. The sensation of teeth tearing into flesh, the warmth of blood flooding its mouth—everything felt far more vivid, far more intoxicating than its first kill.

From that moment onward, the Primal Sovereign of the Seas hunted without end, relentlessly shifting its form into that of its prey, all in pursuit of ever greater sensation.

Eventually, it came to understand what it truly enjoyed—what brought it the greatest satisfaction—and thus settled upon a form that fulfilled those desires, becoming the figure Yuan had come to recognize.

‘So it didn’t start its life as a goldfish…’ Yuan was somewhat disappointed to learn this. However, what truly surprised him was the beastly silhouette in the beginning of the memory.

‘Was that… the Primal Monarch?’

Though not even Tian Yi had ever witnessed the Primal Monarch’s true form, Yuan somehow knew just from that memory that the being before it was none other than the Primal Monarch.

Does this mean the Primal Monarch had created the Primal Sovereign of the Seas? Would that make the Primal Sovereign of the Seas the Primal Monarch’s child? Is that why they bore similar names?

Yuan had a lot of questions but no answers.

<You have successfully refined the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ Blood Essence!>

Before he realized, Yuan had refined its blood essence without experiencing any pain, which was a first.

<Immortal Monarch’s Bloodline is reacting to the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ Blood Essence!>

<Immortal Monarch’s Bloodline evolution has progressed slightly!>

<You have acquired the power of the Primal Sovereign of the Seas’ through its Blood Essence>

<You have acquired the ability ‘Water Tunnel’>

[Water Tunnel]

[Rank: Celestial]

[Description: Allows you to traverse between seas that you have visited(after acquiring this ability), regardless of their distance.]

‘Water Tunnel? So I can traverse between worlds through the sea like the Primal Sovereign of the Seas?’ Yuan was pleasantly surprised to acquire this ability, as this essentially allowed him to traverse anywhere at will.

However, since it only worked with places he’d been to after acquiring the ability, this meant that he wouldn’t be able to return to the Nine Heavens or the Primal Expanse until he visited those places again.

Regardless, Yuan was delighted to have this ability due to its conveniences in the future.

<You have acquired ‘Mark of the Seas’>

‘Mark of the Seas? What is that?’ Yuan raised an eyebrow at this notification.

Since the system showed no details of it, Yuan had no idea what it was or its purpose.

Afterward, Yuan contemplated whether he should absorb the True Emperor of the Seas’ Monster Core, but after some consideration, decided to wait to see if there were some other uses since he wasn’t in a hurry to increase his cultivation.

Some time later, Yuan decided to end his seclusion there and went outside.

“How long have I been in seclusion?” Yuan asked Lev, who was sitting outside like a statue.

“A hundred twenty years,” Lev responded.

“That took a hundred twenty years?!” Yuan exclaimed with a shocked face, as it only felt like a few hours had passed since he started.

“What about Dena?” he then asked.

“She emerged from her seclusion earlier, but seeing that you weren’t done, she decided to continue. She also said to wake her up once you are finished.”

“I see. Then let’s wake her up now.”
