Chapter 1687: Besieging the Calamity of Taboo

Sensing such a terrifying number of Tier 8 calamity auras, most members of the Twilight Society gasped in their hearts.

They knew the Forbidden Sea had a deep foundation, but they hadn't expected it to be this deep. With so many Tier 8 calamities, even if the Calamity of Taboo didn't lift a finger, they could slaughter two realms.

Just as many members tensed up, giant shadows flickering with faint scarlet light also took to the sky, charging without hesitation toward that impenetrable wall of calamity!

"That is..." A flash of pleasant surprise crossed Diamond 10's eyes.

"Reinforcements from the Abyss of Ghostly Derision."

The Gray King responded calmly.

A crimson centipede, winding like a dragon, led a toad as massive as a mountain, a scorpion flashing with cold light, a gecko of incredible speed, and a venomous snake radiating a lethal aura. They carved a bloody path through the Forbidden Sea, their five terrifying auras intertwining, their pressure not a whit inferior to those dozen-plus Tier 8 calamities!

Wu Yi’s body swept across like a giant, sharp red sword, splitting a Tier 8 calamity of the Forbidden Sea right down the middle, carving a gap into the crowded wall of calamity.

Chan Yi, Xie Yi, She Yi, and Bi Yi swarmed forward, engaging the other Tier 8 calamities in battle and continuously widening the gap...

Venomous insects and sea beasts fought amidst the surging waves, their hideous roars echoing through the sky. Black blood gradually spread across the sea surface, and the entire region seemed to turn into a purgatory battlefield!

Meanwhile, a figure draped in a black cloak leaped down from Wu Yi.

The black robe billowed in the biting wind, revealing skin covered in black curse marks. When that familiar and mysterious face was exposed to the air, Sun Bumian was slightly stunned.

"It's you?"

"You are Chen Ling's companion, right? We met in the Wuji Realm." Zhao Yi gently removed his hood and said earnestly, "I am very familiar with the Forbidden Sea... I can lend you a hand."

Ever since the Fusion Faction was destroyed, Zhao Yi had been settled by Chen Ling in the Abyss of Ghostly Derision. As the sole survivor left behind by Teacher Ye, he had spent this time day after day slaying and fusing, and his aura had actually reached Tier 8.

Moreover, the hybrid calamity cells Zhao Yi fused all originated from the Forbidden Sea. In other words, he possessed nearly 80% of the Forbidden Sea's calamity samples in his body, making him perhaps the person in the world who understood the Forbidden Sea and the Calamity of Taboo best.

After finishing the meeting for the Twilight Society earlier, Chen Ling had immediately used a Thought Storm to contact Zhao Yi, asking him to bring the calamities of the Abyss of Ghostly Derision to support the Forbidden Sea. Zhao Yi naturally would not refuse...

The Aurora Realm had been destroyed precisely because of the Calamity of Taboo, and his father had also died due to the invasion of the Forbidden Sea...

This grudge was one he had to settle.

"Thank you." Sun Bumian knew this was not the time for pleasantries and nodded immediately. "The top priority is to force the Calamity of Taboo out... If it stays on the seabed, there is truly nothing we can do about it."

Zhao Yi nodded slightly. "Leave that to me... I have a way to lure it out, but how to prevent it from returning is up to you."

After saying this, Zhao Yi’s figure dropped directly toward the sea surface.

The black robe billowed in the cold wind. The moment his feet touched the sea, the surface instantly froze over with a layer of frost. He pressed his palms against the ice, and a profound aura surged from the depths of his eyes...

The curse marks on his body began to squirm frantically. His human aura was suppressed to the extreme, while his calamity aura soared wildly. At this moment, he seemed to have become a super-amalgamation of Forbidden Sea calamities. From the perspective of the Calamity of Taboo, he was a bizarre monster pieced together from the severed limbs of its own "subjects."

Now, this monster was using the aura of its "subjects" to continuously infiltrate the deep sea...

This was a blatant provocation!

Even the Calamity of Taboo, which had always been steady and reclusive, was enraged now. If the person provoking it were the Calamity of Derision, it might have continued to play the coward, but the ones provoking it above were just a group of trash humans; it naturally didn't have that much patience.

The previously calm deep sea suddenly surged violently, and countless terrifying vortexes and turbulent currents churned. As a world-ending aura erupted like a volcano, a scorching lantern, bright as the sun, lit up from the seabed!

"It's here!!"

Zhao Yi, on the sea surface, roared immediately.

He pushed off the ice with his feet, his entire body springing up at incredible speed. The next second, a giant shadow smashed through the ice layer he had been standing on, its abyss-like maw seemingly devouring everything...

"Master!"

Seeing this, Liu Qingyan immediately turned to look at the Gray King beside her.

The Gray King had been waiting for a long time. She raised her hand and pointed toward the firmament, and a bright, clear moon was instantly outlined from the gray clouds. In an instant...

The bright moon reflected on the sea, and all sounds were silenced.

This powerhouse, who had already stepped half a foot into the Demigod realm, unleashed her ability at any cost. The moment the moonlight shone upon the Calamity of Taboo, even its massive body paused slightly...

The next second, the figure wearing a white baseball cap raised both hands and grabbed at the empty air!

Under the power of the current leader of the Thief God Path, the Calamity of Taboo, which had leaped more than halfway out of the sea, had the space hundreds of meters above it stolen away. Its entire body shifted upward slightly, like a large fish forcibly hooked, completely trapped above the sea surface.

But a Tier 8 is a Tier 8 after all. Even with the Gray King and Bai Ye working together, they could only control the Calamity of Taboo for a brief moment. With a deafening roar, the massive body broke free from the moonlight's control and plummeted back toward the sea...

"It's falling back!" Heart 7 exclaimed nervously.

"It won't have that chance."

A white-clad figure streaked past him.

Just as the Calamity of Taboo was falling, four figures sped toward the space beneath it from four different directions!

The four facial masks of "Sheng," "Dan," "Jing," and "Mo" gradually climbed onto the cheeks of the four K-card holders. Different opera robes billowed on the wind-tossed sea. They raised their hands simultaneously, each holding a quarter of a disc in their palms...

The aura of the Tier 8 Opera God Path erupted from four different directions at once. The four discs extended like a giant net from the four corners, reaching directly toward the massive body of the Calamity of Taboo. A world took shape beneath it, and the moment the Calamity of Taboo was about to touch the seawater, it perfectly caught its body!

The Calamity of Taboo fell into the giant net of discs, as if passing through the barrier of a world. The reality it occupied was rewritten; below it was no longer seawater, but... an ice field as deep and bottomless as the Arctic!

Thud—!!

The body of the Calamity of Taboo crashed onto the ice field, instantly shattering it with countless cracks.

Immediately following, one figure after another streaked down from the giant net of discs, like hunters descending from the sky, surrounding the Calamity of Taboo!!
