Chapter 1500 Charming

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!

Dyon looked at his wife, a charming smile on his face.

It was obvious to him that this ability to comprehend beasts to their core was something incredibly rare. In fact, if Dyon remembered correctly, there was a lady he met just moments before his first run-in with Diasho Ken in the Sapientia Quadrant. Her name was Brea.

Dyon remembered that she was said to have a const.i.tution that made her incredibly sympathetic to beasts, this was why her reaction to thinking Dyon had abused the beast babies was so strong. In all likelihood, that const.i.tution was a lesser form of Ri's.

Back then, Brea couldn't get an accurate read on the beast babies due to Dyon's mask interfering, so she made wild a.s.sumptions. But, obviously, here, there were no obstructions.

'How many of them do you think there are?'

Ri looked toward Dyon with a slightly worried expression. Although he was trying to hide it, she could tell that he was in incredible pain right now. If it wasn't for his t.i.tan diamond body, he would have already collapsed.

'This is just one colony. They split themselves four major oceans, each headed by one King. This is just a subordinate group, but they still rank relatively high. Beneath the King's colony, they would be only two levels below.

'King's Colony, n.o.ble Colony, Warrior Colony. There are only four King's Colonies for each of the four major oceans. There are nine n.o.ble colonies under each of them. This is one of the warrior colonies, but it's a top-cla.s.s warrior colony, you can tell by the fact their leader is 1000 kilometers in length. n.o.ble Clans are headed by blue whales that are 2000 kilometers in length. The Kings are 5000 kilometers in length.'

'Warrior?' Dyon frowned. 'Who are they fighting? And if they're used to fighting, why is it that they've completely ignored us?'

'That information is out of my reach since it's not directly related to the whales themselves' Ri said with a sigh. ' But I do know that they haven't attacked us because they haven't sensed any hostility from us.'

'I was a little too ambitious in coming here.' Dyon said bitterly.

How could he even make use of them? As of now, there was nowhere in Soul Rend Quadrant they could fit. Soul Planet didn't have oceans large enough to hold even one of them, neither did the remaining planets under Dyon's control. The only place Dyon could conceivably put them was Dark Ocean. Although its depths weren't anywhere near the level of Earth, its width was far past Earth's.

However, then what? Sure, Dark Ocean would gain a ma.s.sive boost in protection, but when the Jafari Clan treasure completed its task, would it really be necessary? Not at all.

In addition, Dyon didn't have a vessel large enough to carry even these 12. Well, he did: his Life Ring that Eli left behind. Its size was even larger than the celestial floors. But the problem was that it didn't have large bodies of water. And it wasn't like Dyon could just flood water into it either or else all of Eli's hard work in adjusting the perfect ecosystems for plant growth would be ruined.

Plus, since the whales lacked cultivation, they couldn't fly either
