Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 823: Battle Of Titans.

After realizing the magnitude of their attacks, their group looked at the ongoing battle with a much more severe expression.

Moreover, unlike regular jellyfish, this one was nimble. Its tentacles were agile and quick, swirling with powerful energy as they constantly attacked and hit the similarly sized turtle shark.

The turtle shark didn't just receive the hits. It fought back with quick body slams, tail strikes, and powerful jaws, creating deep wounds on its opponent.

The two mountainous beings fought each other in a bloody battle, sending massive shockwaves through the water that impacted the warship even from where they were.

Angel blinked and asked, looking at the faraway brutal battle through the screen that slowly tainted the ocean with blood. "Why are they fighting?"

Yasenia was curious as well, so she looked at the seniors. "Do any of you know?"

The seniors looked at the girls with a deadpan, and Tatyana said. "Do you think we know everything?"

Yesenia's eyebrow twitched. "I mean, perhaps you knew why."

Tatyana smirked. "Probably a territorial battle, who knows?"

The dragoness nodded. "Fair enough." Then, she looked at Angel and spoke. "Well, I don't know."

Angel giggled, having entirely heard their exchange. "Cute."

Yasenia pinched her cheek with a smile and returned to look at the battle.

From the looks of it, this fight had been going on for a while. The body of the shark was riddled with lashes, and he was missing two of the 12 fins.

Meanwhile, the jellyfish was similarly injured, with large chunks of the bell missing while some tentacles were clearly cut off.

The battle was clearly a battle to the death. If not, a winner would've been chosen by now, and one side would've left to heal their injuries. Creatures of this level had a certain level of fear of death, so they wouldn't just throw their bodies mindlessly into battle. Moreover, in the case of battle, it was more often than not a proving battle.

Suddenly, the jellyfish's body crackled with energy as it used one of its skills. Then, its tentacles blurred, releasing a deadly barrage that left black rifts in the wake of the attacks.

The enormous turtle shark was quick and used his remaining fins to make a quick dash and try to dodge out of the barrage. Still, because of the high-speed attacks, it was struck by many of them, bursting large chunks of its carapace into blood and flesh geysers.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The consecutive hits stacked into a massive shockwave that traveled through the sea and eventually reached them, making them feel the power behind their attacks more directly.

A clear expression of pain and anger appeared on its face, and right after, the turtle shark charged forward. Unlike beings on land, not many creatures would fight with roars underwater, so other than the blows exchanged, there was no sound, transmitting a more raw and brutal fight.

To retaliate, the turtle shark's body became a more profound and darker color, and then the enormous three-kilometer body vanished.

A person asked. "Where-?"

But even before he could finish that word, they saw the turtle shark ramming the jellyfish's bell, deforming its upper part, and then blasting the entire creature off for several hundred kilometers into a distant underwater hill, leaving a trail for blood.

The massive impact was caught by Yasenia's quick camera work, showing the catastrophic impact that released a massive sand and rock wave.

Evelyn exclaimed. "What a blow! Is the jellyfish alive?"

The turtle shark used its fins and rushed forward to finish it off, but our girls felt it flinch as it tried to flick sideways.

However, it was too late.

A powerful energy aura blew away the dust cloud, revealing the jellyfish lodged in the ground, curving all its remaining tentacles toward a relatively small ball of energy.

The ball of extremely dense energy, surrounded by all its limbs, cracked the space around it from the power it held.

Then, a monstrous beam of energy was released from the center of its bell, which was pointed at that ball.

The turtle shark had tried to flee, crossing a distance of more than 50 kilometers in the blink of an eye. Still, it was not enough.

The attack of the cosmic-looking jellyfish was followed by a tsunami of light that, this time, even our girls spotted from their position so far away.

Like an enormous white maw, it devoured everything before it, vaporizing the sea and making the water vapor explode in a gargantuan explosion that swallowed everything.

BOOM!

Yasenia looked in the direction of the attack and saw the white beam of light piercing through the ocean and going off into the distance. Her face was extremely serious as she looked at the destructive power behind that attack. Cecile muttered. "So that's the strength of a creature close to breaking through into the sixth realm." Her lips arched, battle-thirsty. "That level of strength and above will be mine."

The other girls nodded. If a beast with a somewhat powerful bloodline had that level of destructive power at their realm of strength, when their dragoness reached the same level, they were a bit fearful of imagining how powerful she would be.

A few moments later, Yasenia saw a wall of pressurized water rushing toward them, but she wasn't worried.

The invisible golden shield surrounding the warship revealed itself and faced it head-on.

BANG!

A loud explosive sound was heard, but they didn't even move an inch from their positions. Those abroad didn't even feel the vibration. It was just as if someone had clapped loudly, and then it finished.

Yasenia manipulated the screen to check on the turtle shark. After 30 seconds, she found it—or rather, its remains.

The turtle shark had more than half its body ripped off while the body floated adrift; the deep wounds laced around the surface as it lay motionlessly made it quite clear that it had died.

Both beasts had been fighting for a long time already, and they had exhausted a lot of their energy. So, a wound this large was probably not possible to recover from.

Evelyn hummed. "It is dead, isn't it?"

Yasenia nodded. "It seems like so."

Kali asked. "What about the other one?"

Yasenia searched for it and saw it motionless in the same place where it had previously landed. "Huh?"

Andrea rubbed her chin. "Was that last attack too much for it? It honestly looks horrible with all those wounds around the body."

The dragoness commented. "Honestly, that last attack was too strong. It really felt desperate… Speaking of which. Valeria, we came here for something, right? The fight was inconsequential."

Valeria shook her head. "Well, they were fighting because of something, and after analyzing the entire situation, I understood. This is the territory of that jellyfish. However, the turtle shark came, and the jellyfish got nervous because of something that incited the battle. The most likely reason is that it, or rather, she has laid a batch of eggs not long ago which have yet to hatch."

Yasenia titled her head. "Eggs?..." Then, she understood. "Oh! The powerful life fluctuation you felt came from one of those eggs?"

Valeria nodded and asked. "Well, what do you want to do?"

Yasenia frowned as she looked at the enormous jellyfish. Tatyana intervened. "It is dead."

The girls and others blinked. "Huh?"

Tatyana looked over and spoke. "The last attack used all its energy reserves and more, fracturing its beast core. A fractured beast core leaks energy, not allowing beasts to recover. Saving it is impossible unless we use miracle medicine, meaning something like low-level Transcendent healing pills. Of course, with Valeria's skills, it might be possible."

Yasenia moved the ship and sailed forward, arriving by the enormous jellyfish side. As she looked down, her eyes moved to the side, and she saw one of the tentacles suddenly lashing at them.

BANG!

The warship was pushed back several hundred meters, but Yasenia remained in the same position, looking down at the struggling creature with analytical eyes. "Do you understand me?"

The jellyfish didn't move or show any reactions. "It's either too tired or a mindless beast."

Tatyana hugged Yasenia's arm and spoke. "Are you thinking that letting it die while stealing her babies is too much? Are you seeing yourself in her exact situation and trying to think how you would feel?"

Yasenia titled her head. "I am. But I'm not hesitating on whether to save it or not. Now that we are close, I can sense that it is alive just by pure will. Saving it would require tremendous amounts of effort, care, and resources." Yasenia continued. "I was thinking that I could tell it what was about to happen before it fell dead if it were intelligent. However, we are speaking like this, and other than the menacing aura around it, it isn't doing anything or trying to communicate."

As a final test, Yasenia said aloud. "Hey, I'll take your eggs and raise them. Do you care?"

However, nothing happened.

"Hm…"

The dragoness pondered and moved the ship toward the turtle shark's corpse. Once beside it, she sent a wave of energy from her ring, and the entire creature was swallowed into it. Autonomously, the powerful ring dissected the beast, placing the usable parts, beast core, and unusable parts in different places. 'I can use the unusable parts for cooking, and the rest… Oh?'

"This thing has an intact peak-level Beast Core. It will come in handy for my breakthrough into the Legendary Beast realm."

Yasenia took out the large core, looked at it for a few moments, and licked her lips. "It looks appetizing. Well, back in you go."

Cecile asked. "Can you finish that entire core? While I found it extremely appealing, a part of my instincts told me that I would need a bit less than a quarter of it to break through."

The dragoness chuckled. "Yep. I can swallow it whole… Speaking of which, what about you, Kali?"

Kali pondered and said in a proving tone. "Around half?"

Cecile blinked. "But you are lower ranked than me."

Tatyana explained. "It's about bloodline purity. Because you are a complete phoenix without any human blood left, the energy will be entirely used on your beast core. Meanwhile, Kali still has a lot left until she releases the entire potential of her bloodline. She can probably unlock her fourth tail while breaking through into the Legendary Beast Core rank."

They understood and looked at the remaining two beasts. Sierra and Ebirah had been by their side in their human forms, so Yasenia straightforwardly asked them. "What about you two?"

Ebirah blinked and answered. "Well… I feel like I can eat a few bites before I'm full. It's a really powerful core."

Sierra agreed while looking at Kali, Cecile, and Yasenia strangely. "Eating a quarter or more of that thing… I might die."

"Perfect!"

Yasenia exclaimed and then said. "With this core and the one from the jellyfish, we'll have enough monster cores for a while."

The girls looked at her speechlessly. Evelyn stated more than asking. "You are going to take the jellyfish, after all."

Yasenia blinked at her. "Why not? It is dying, so I won't let that giant mountain of resources rot away here in the middle of the ocean."

The girls found that reasoning sound, so they didn't say anything more.

When they arrived, Tatyana informed them. "Well, it died."

Yasenia was about to wave her hand to swallow it into her ring, but she paused for a second. "Hm… I'm letting you know that if any of your eggs have survived, we'll raise them nicely. So, go in peace, and thanks for the resources you will provide."

Then, Yasenia waved her hand, swallowing the cosmic-looking jellyfish corpse into her ring, and then moved the warship toward the signal Valeria felt.
