In seconds, all the elders on the ground surrounded the group. In the air, about fifty high-ranking elders could be seen, already armed. And in the center, descending from the skies, was the patriarch radiating a strange and malevolent joy.
"It seems like the heavens want my glorious Bloodthirsty Light Sect to become number one and finally dominate beyond this sandbox of ours in the desert," he spoke slowly, and everyone’s heart around pounded frantically.
"Pif..." Suddenly, a ridiculous and muffled laugh quickly sounded, as if it had escaped and been deliberately restrained.
The gaze of everyone, including the patriarch, turned red, and the focus of it couldn’t escape their eyes. A young girl looked at the patriarch, holding the whale with one hand and putting the other hand to her mouth. In her eyes, there was only subtle mockery.
"You... hahahaha... I will make you pay for the previous humiliation, slowly," he laughed lecherously, and everyone felt the hatred emanating from him.
The whale was focused on his thoughts. Soon, he sent a message to Almin through the array. That’s when he faintly heard Ruri speaking.

"With just you? I really felt like kicking something between your legs before, but... it was so small that I thought I didn’t even hit anything. You don’t fool me! In fact, you cultivate a celibate technique and are a eunuch! You just pretended to be hurt before to save face!"
All the elders around heard and held their breath. Some quietly expelled air from their lungs to avoid the risk of making any sound. The disciples who watched from a distance heard it, and some didn’t have the same self-control, letting out muffled sounds, even if it wasn’t exactly laughter. From above, the entire sky turned completely dark around the patriarch.
"So brave... you seem to have a lot of confidence in him... great, it’ll be more fun to break your soul slowly..." He spoke, radiating hatred, then his eyes focused on the girl for two seconds. Soon, something surprised him. "Hm? I can sense a feminine aura in you now, but... there’s still a vital Yin. Weren’t you the whale’s partner in his dual cultivation?"
So he laughed thunderously, and his words came out amid his laughter. "Great, great. Keeping you alive will be more fun. They say Montide women are different, but I’ve never had preferences."
Ruri squeezed the whale’s hands upon hearing that. Bruno sighed seriously and quietly, and Alm just grew colder and more malevolent. This idiot was the one who truly had courage.
Soon, Bruno, who had some self-control, spoke through the whale, looking at the patriarch. "What are you doing?"
"Oh? Decided to negotiate? Now that you’ve surrendered to my sect, there’s no way out. Everything of yours will be mine, the arrogance of a young master from the divine realm is so immense that it even surprised me." He replied dryly and began descending from the skies.
Crimson wings beat on the back of that patriarch, and his whole being radiated an intense bestial bloodline, making the air tremble. He then released his entire cultivation; he wasn’t stupid; he had seen this whale kill a patriarch before. He wouldn’t give any opportunity for him to escape. This was his sect’s unique opportunity to surpass the Vital Yin Sect and, eventually, even the Three Extremes Sect.
All disciples took several steps back, and even common elders stepped away, feeling suffocated in front of the patriarch. However, the entire whale’s group was watching him calmly, as if it meant nothing. In a second, the patriarch was just a few meters away; then, his claws opened, and an endless power closed in on the group.
"The deal was for me to go to the abyss; you’re breaking it by stopping me from passing. Are you sure about that?" The whale spoke lightly.
In a millisecond, the patriarch snorted, and at the same time, the whale’s fists lit up. Then, in less than the blink of an eye, everyone who watched suffocated, feeling that oppressive power evaporate. It was as if all of it had been nothing but an illusion. Then, bewildered, they looked ahead...
CRACK!
And they saw in slow motion a young girl leap a few meters... and deliver a precise kick... in a very sensitive spot for men.
The muffled sound of the patriarch hitting the ground, and the image of his arms instinctively moving between his legs, made everyone freeze. But in that cold silence, a low groan of lamentation sounded... and everyone felt their souls leaving their bodies in shock... or maybe in the face of the ridiculous scene.
It all lasted for one or two seconds. It was at that moment that Ruri returned to the whale’s side, and everyone took a step closer to him, except for Almin. Following that, electric sparks flickered in his eyes, and at the same time, the temperature rose. No one saw him swallow a few pills amidst the events.
BOOM!!!
Lightning and flames merged into an explosive power that seemed apocalyptic. An endless wave of destruction spread in all directions, leaving no chance of escape for those nearby.
All the distant disciples fell to the ground, rolling and spitting blood onto the earth. The common elders who were closest were immediately engulfed and turned into a bloody mist. But in the sky, the high-ranking elders felt their skin crack and bleed, but they were only thrown several meters back, wounded by the surprise.
The patriarch just rolled on the ground as if that power were a strong gust of wind. It wasn’t enough to injure his skin, but his entire connection to Qi was severed, and his soul was shaken by the contract. The explosion lasted for five seconds, and he couldn’t get back up as he spun, carried away by the waves of power.
His mind was a mess, filled with endless humiliation. But there was also a desperate disbelief. That level of power... if he was near to the whale and his group at the epicenter, he would have been gravely injured. What about them, who had much lower cultivation? He was sure that that explosion killed everyone in the whale’s group, not leaving a single spec of dust behind.
’He... chose suicide?’ The patriarch thought as he rolled on the ground, but he couldn’t believe it.
When everything was gone, he got up, looking in the direction where the whale’s group had been. There was nothing...
He stayed silent for a second, then felt something in the direction of the tower. Turning his eyes, his mind went blank. What was before him was something he had seen a few times in his life... but... how was this possible? He wondered.
The whale’s group was five meters from the tower and running quickly, free and unobstructed. Around all of them, an aura covered them as if it were a sacred cloak of Celestial Blue color. In front, the whale was clearly the epicenter of it all.
"Faith Power..." The patriarch murmured as the whale kicked the tower doors and entered with everyone. He had seen this before. After all, this was the foundation of the Sect of the Infernal God, a sect as powerful as his own Bloodthirsty Light Sect. That patriarch who died in the whale’s hands had used this kind of faith power many times in front of him.
"But... this is at least a hundred times more powerful..." He then snapped out of his sudden shock when he felt the aura of the whale and everyone disappear. Then, in despair, he ran to the tower, but it was already too late.
