Several thousand miles, in a straight line about 45 degrees from a level gaze, a colony of blue whales idly swam.

They were massive, majestic creatures, shining like beautiful sapphires. In the darkness of the ocean, they wafted off their own light, completely oblivious to the matters of the world. All they seemed to care for was sleep and food.

Mortal blue whales were already 25 meters in length. In Dyon's mortal realm, they were one of if not the largest living creatures in existence. However, right now, their size was even more exaggerated. It was to the point where Dyon had never seen creatures so large even in the martial realm.

Back when Dyon entered the Demon Sages Mystical World he found out that its core was constructed with the Inner Core of a Higher Existence Infernal Beast. That core spanned several hundred meters making Dyon wonder just how large the beast it came from had been…

However, at this moment, Dyon was absolutely certain, to the point of being willing to bet his life on it, that these blue whales would dwarf whatever beast that was in size. There was no doubt in his mind.

Dyon's heart palpitated as he held Ri closer to himself.

He realized at that moment that the source of the cold qi wasn't some hidden treasure, but these blue whales themselves!

His calm state of mind was so affected that he almost foolishly took a deep breath.

Soon, he calmed himself, but, his grip on Ri didn't loosen. These blue whales presented an opportunity, yes, but they were also incredibly dangerous.

Whatever evolutionary change that occurred in these whales was far beyond Dyon's understanding. Even the smallest of them was several hundred miles long, the largest of them could send a small planet flying out of orbit with its mere presence.

Even without his divine sense, Dyon could tell that these whales didn't have an ounce of cultivation. However, even without cultivation, Dyon didn't dare approach these blue whales. This cold qi that they evolved to gain was definitely a protective mechanism.

Plus, even if they didn't have this protection, just how powerful was the flesh of a beast that could grow so large?

There was a reason why more powerful beasts grew larger. It was a direct representation of how much fleshly power they had. Dyon didn't doubt that even with cultivation, these blue whales could casually turn a peak celestial into meat paste.

Luckily, there were only 12 of them. In addition, despite noticing Dyon and Ri's presence, they didn't seem to care.

Dyon sighed a breath of relief. At least this evolutionary change didn't warp the docile nature of blue whales.

The matter of these blue whales also explained many things to Dyon. Since the source of this cold qi could move around, it was no wonder Dyon had never experienced it before. With how large the Oceans of Earth were, it was incredibly lucky, or maybe unlucky, that Dyon and Ri had run into this blue whale colony this time.

'They're migrating.' Ri suddenly said.

Though she couldn't use her qi, and speaking with water in her mouth was next to impossible, Ri and Dyon's souls were still connected, so it was easy to convey a message when they were so close to each other without alerting the cold qi.

Dyon was about to ask how Ri knew this, but he wisely refrained. Ri was the Elvin Queen, her talent for beast taming was second to none. As her abilities bloomed, so too did her ability to communicate with beasts.

Something like this was a minor ability when it came to beast who had already gained their human forms, but not all beasts were able to reach this stage. And, even for those who could, there would still be a period in their lives where they couldn't speak human language.

Considering a beast's youth was the best time to tame them, it was obvious how outstanding Ri's ability to innately comprehend them was.

'Migrating?'

'Mm. They came from far deeper, several million miles. However, they came up after they and their fellow clansmen realized that they humans were gone. They felt more emboldened to explore more areas of the ocean.'

Dyon nodded in understanding as Ri continued.

'It seems you were right. The depths of the ocean are incredibly hot, to a level far higher than even a normal star. These blue whales evolved to hide in those depths because several epochs ago cultivators from the martial world kept hunting them down due to their vital qi filled flesh.

'In the beginning, they died because the heat was too much. But, after several generations, this cold qi became their counter.'

Dyon was astonished. This explanation of Ri's was more than just about comprehending beast speech… In fact, it reminded Dyon of the hamster twins' ability! Except, Little Yang and Yin's ability only worked on inanimate objects, but Ri's seemed to work on the living!
