Several more hours passed, and the number of undead entities killed had surpassed 120,000, a few hours earlier than the Sea Emperor had initially anticipated.
"The death toll has surpassed 120,000, and the Deadpools are starting to show fluctuations in their dormant state," the Sea Emperor said. "I estimate they will awaken within half an hour." After speaking, he did not try to dissuade Guding from leaving any longer but chose to fall silent.
The following half-hour was undeniably long and torturous. The Sea Emperor did not utter another word, and Guding maintained his silence.
"Roar..." A fierce roar suddenly emanated from a direction not too far from Guding, with the sound waves carrying intense air pressure, spreading like waves in all directions.
In that direction, not very far from Guding, as a gust of wind carrying the sound of the roar arose, Guding quickly dashed toward the source of the sound.
