In the worst-case scenario, Ji Chen would spare no hesitation in using all available resources and means, disregarding any morals or ethics.

Of course, he hoped that such a moment wouldn’t come.

The entirety of the Crown of the Ocean’s forces had already returned, without choosing to harass the advancing enemy army. With a total of seventy thousand troops, plus an additional twenty thousand coerced sea clan laborers, it was a formidable force that couldn’t be easily shaken.

Thinking about this, Ji Chen scratched his head in frustration.

Why did Lord of the Waves have to be so provocative? He had barely defeated less than twenty thousand of his troops and left behind the palace and camp they were constructing, only to rush over here directly.

Could he not handle it?

If the Crown of the Ocean continued to harass for a few more days, the gap in their military strength would decrease to a point where they could confront each other directly, and Ji Chen wouldn’t need to prepare so many unconventional methods.

With his current strength, he wasn’t too afraid of Lord of the Waves, who had been hiding mysteriously in the waterspout for so long.

He wanted to see if he, as the Ocean Dominator, could outdo a Lord of the Waves!

Shaking his head, Ji Chen pushed these thoughts aside and called for Alice.

“Now that Lord of the Waves’ army has set out, his palace and camp should be without significant defenses. Send the Dragon Legion to destroy them, so they won’t be used against us later.”

“I understand.” Alice nodded.

However, half a day later, unexpected news reached him.

Lord of the Waves’ camp had vanished without a trace!

Hearing this news, Ji Chen was taken aback. How could such a large camp simply disappear!?

But the fact remained. According to the report from the Dragon Legion, it wasn’t due to invisibility, illusions, or submersion in the sea. The camp had genuinely and inexplicably vanished!

This was truly bizarre!

Ji Chen was puzzled, but he couldn’t dwell on it any longer because the plan was about to commence. The elves had already prepared to cast a massive illusion spell.

Thirty miles east of the Stormy Sea, on a stretch of sea.

The elves arrived here on their ships, with the assistance of the Crown of the Ocean’s forces, they spread out across the sea surface.

The elves’ magical talents were truly enviable. Among the less than five thousand residents of Vale, there were more than two thousand elf spellcasters capable of casting large-scale illusion spells. This meant that as long as they were of adult age, they could possess quite formidable magical power.

The two thousand elf spellcasters were roughly divided into ten groups, each led by an elf elder. Marianne stood solemnly at the forefront, slowly raising her staff.

Magical energy flowed from the gem at the top of the staff, stopping about fifty meters above the sea surface. It condensed into an elemental array, with a diameter of over a hundred meters, resembling a vortex.

“First team!”

With Marianne’s low command, the leftmost team of elves simultaneously raised their staffs. A more majestic surge of magical energy poured into the elemental array, making it emit even brighter light.

“Second team!”

“Third team…”

As each team of elves poured magical energy into the elemental array, a colossal portal suddenly appeared in the space fifty meters above the sea surface. It exuded a magnificent aura.

If one looked closely, they would notice that this portal was identical to the one used to enter the Divine Relic Battlefield! Even the aura was strikingly similar.

Originally, Ji Chen considered creating a decrepit and ruined relic illusion, but he thought it would be better to simply create the portal. It would be easier to confuse the enemy this way.

At first glance, if he didn’t know it was fake, he would have thought that there was indeed a portal leading to the frozen wilderness standing right in front of him.

Ji Chen nodded in satisfaction and looked at Marianne.

“Thank you for your help. The Crown of the Ocean will remember that you once extended a helping hand.”

Marianne seemed a bit weak, as the enormous illusion spell had nearly depleted her magical power.

“You’ve helped our Vale, so we naturally have to do something in return.

This illusion spell can last for a day. I hope Lord Ji Chen will successfully eliminate the enemy.” Marianne bowed respectfully. “Now, please send us back. The battlefield is yours.”

The ships carried the elves back to the New Moon Islands, leaving behind only the massive portal, along with eleven thousand Crown of the Ocean troops and twelve thousand Coral Palace troops.

Ji Chen stood before the portal, slowly raising his right hand. A thumb-sized azure light dot appeared in his palm.

The power of the ocean.

It seemed like the purest and most supreme essence of the sea, attracting the attention of all sea clans present the moment it appeared.

The Kraken stared at this light dot with widened eyes, displaying shock, desire, greed, and longing emotions. Eventually, it returned to calmness and lowered its head toward Ji Chen.

Alice, Herald, Benbo, and all the heroes silently lowered their heads as well.

That was the most supreme and pure essence of the boundless ocean. Controlling it meant having a slight chance of giving birth to divinity. Following a lord who might become a deity was their long-cherished wish.

In addition, the power of the ocean had more extraordinary attributes.

For example…

Ji Chen gazed at the light dot in his palm, communicating with it in his mind. An intangible force, invisible and untouchable, emanated from him, spreading in all directions with the sea breeze and currents, swiftly transmitting across the seas for miles in all directions..
