Ocean Master

Sebastian's new system status dropped like a bombshell to him.

Once he saw his new status, his excitement knew no end as he celebrated like a mad Megalodon. No intruder was there to serve as a spectator, so he was free to express his joy in any manner that he deemed fit.

Of course, Sebastian didn't celebrate forever, he didn't have the luxury for that, he was still in a region that was infested with bloodthirsty predators that were ready to rip his face off. After celebrating to his fill, he finally calmed down.

This was when Sebastian started analyzing his new system status.

Everything that transpired after he regained consciousness was so unbelievable that he found them hard to believe, but they were true.

Sebastian first navigated back to his 2nd system notification after he regained consciousness, which was about how he fulfilled the requirements to access the Ocean King's hidden inheritance reward.

Sebastian found this confusing at first, but it only needed a little bit of thinking from him and after combining this information with that of his system's 4th notification, he finally understood what happened.

Apparently, the dose of purified soul energy that he received was the soul energy that was released by the Doppelganger and Invisibility Sea King after he died pitifully to him.

Then, Sebastian remembered that a sizeable portion of the Sea King's dispersing soul energy escaped, while he succeeded in assimilating the others.

He never knew the consequences that this action would have until now, and all that he could say about it was that he absolutely loved it.

The effects of this action were not him just meeting the requirement to make use of the telekinesis magic ability, but the purified soul energy managed to make his mind his 2nd best basic stat at a staggering figure of 432.

This was a massive benefit that Sebastian never anticipated.

This massive boost did not directly mean that he grew countless times more intelligent, it simply meant that his soul resistance to soul skills and any ability that was soul-related increased.

As for him unlocking the Ancient Megalodon Bloodline and getting his first bloodline skills, Sebastian could only associate this to the advantages of his system and the massive foundation that he created on breaking through to the purple tier.

Sebastian was not sure, but if what Tonado told him was correct, then the amount of primordial origin magic that he attracted during his breakthrough was abnormal.

This was dangerous, but if successful, according to Tonado, it meant that his future potential would be terrifying compared to other predators.

He guessed that these factors helped him in unlocking the ancient bloodline.

Of his bloodline skills, after activation, the Megalodon Aura projects a fierce predator aura around him that inconvenience same-tiered opponents in battle, while suppressing lower-tiered opponents in battle.

With this skill, Sebastian was terrifying against a bunch of lower-tiered predators and was also useful against same-tiered opponents. This was a powerful AOE ability.

As for his Megalodon Might, after activation, his basic power stat experiences a 50% percent increase which was a terrifying increase.

With this skill, Sebastian's berserker-like offense in place of defense battle style's effects would be maximized to the limit.

As for the Breath of the Sound Megalodon, it was a sound domain skill where Sebastian would breathe out a terrifying wave of sonic death. The total damage of this skill was terrifying, but Sebastian would be only sure after using it in battle.

As for his bloodline passive skill, his system provided a detailed description.

[Bloodline Passive Skill- The Ruler of the Seas!]

[When locked in battle, if host receives damage that is described as staggering from an opponent, host has a 100% chance of retaliating and dealing staggering damage back to the same opponent no matter what skill or attack method is utilized.]

[Remark: An eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth!]

These were the summary of Sebastian's current prowess with his new bloodline skills, and this was just the tip of the iceberg of his current ability.

Sebastian's basic stats, including his health and mana points, experienced a ridiculous increase compared to when he was still an orange tier predator.

Sebastian was pretty sure that other purple tier predators didn't have such astonishing stat points, he was convinced that all these were due to the numerous stacking factors that affected his breakthrough.

All these factors ranged from the priceless cores that he managed to gain and was privileged to chew like candy from the Sea King's inheritance, to the amount of primordial magic essence that he stored in his mana core.

All these stacked together formed a staggering multiplier force.

Another reason for him to be happy was his luck points. After a relative period of stagnation, his luck points increased again and by a sizeable amount this time which left him ecstatic. It always feels good to be lucky.

Sebastian finally deviated to his new catalog of skills.

Most of his body skills that were retained were upgraded versions of his previous body skills, the only new additions were the Mega Pressure Sensing and the Acrobatic Maneuverability.

The mega pressure sensing was an alternative for his electroreceptors. Instead of sensing electromagnetic waves, this highly sensitive skill instead detects pressure waves like a super lateral line.

Acrobatic maneuverability is a more practical move. With this skill active, Sebastian would no longer be as restrained by his current enormous body.

This skill would make his body extremely flexible. With it active, he could literally bend his body till his head reached his tail position to chomp on a loitering prey who sought to take advantage of his blind spot.

His material magic skills were more or less the same. The Mega Healing is an upgraded version of his Rejuvenation skill, and the Reanimation was a god-tier skill. Sebastian was shocked to see it after accessing its description.

With this skill, he could literally revive once in an interval of a few seconds after dying at the expense of using all his mana points and not being able to make use of his mana organ for 1 month.

This skill, Sebastian did not doubt that its emergence alone at this stage was because of the massive favoritism that was displayed by his system.

This was a skill that could forever change his approach to battles.

For the reason why the Reanimation skill did not have a level progression ladder, after seeing other skills like his bloodline skills that had the same limitation, he guessed what happened.

According to Tonado's knowledge impartation, every skill can exhibit power of different degrees due to the different origin law comprehension of predators.

For every skill, for it to increase in power, the said predator needed to deepen his origin law comprehension of the said skill.

Sebastian didn't have to do this though; this was because his system already took care of the job by making it possible for him to level them up. By leveling them up through usage, it had the same effects as increasing his origin law comprehension of these skills.

This was another cheat ability of his system that Sebastian learned about with time, but clearly, this ability had limitations like in the case of his new Reanimation skill.

The system couldn't do everything for him. For the effects of these skills to increase in efficacy, he needed to work like the others to increase the origin law comprehension of the said skills.

This was a bother, but Sebastian believed that he could do it. Considering that other predators didn't have his advantages, he was having it easy.

As for his sound domain skills, they were the same as the others. Most of them were upgraded versions of his previous skills, with only a few new skills.

The Drilling Sonic Sword skill was an upgrade of the Sonic Drill skill. The difference was that its basic form changed. Instead of being just a drill formed out of magic power, it now took on the shape of a drilling sword in action.

Vibration sensing was another skill to complement his electroreceptors and his sound detector. The more experience he got as a predator, the more he attributed importance to scouting skills.

He stole the melody sensing from his encounter with the Basking Shark, and the Mega Sound Blast was simply an overpowered sound blast attack.

As a sound domain magician, not having a sound blast skill was a shortcoming that Sebastian already recognized long ago and sought to rectify.

For his new skill port of combined skills, the skills here involved both his body and his mana to activate.

The Rupturing sonic ram was an upgraded version of the Battering Ram skill. The difference was that instead of just a basic ram attack this time, an aggressive rupturing sonic attack would accompany it.

The sonic magic teeth skill was an upgrade from his previous magic teeth skill. Like its name suggested, the teeth attack could now deal both physical and sonic damage to enemies.

The sonic torpedo drill skill was a skill that Sebastian decided to purchase due to the non-penetrative power of his previous battering ram skill.

With this skill, his 15-meter-long body would turn into a rotating drill like a torpedo. Accompanying his body was a sharp sonic attack that when paired together could turn him into a penetrating lancer spear.

His combined super sensing skill showcased his recent obsession with maintaining the scouting and information advantage in any situation.

This was a skill that involved and combined all his scouting and sensing skills to form a more tyrannical scouting skill. Its effects and mechanism were like a miniaturized version of a deadly killer move.

Of his mana lord skills, he got them all due to his new evolution route as a Mana Lord. He guessed that this was also one of the reasons for his abnormally high mana point stat.

Mana control was a skill that allowed him to maintain basic control over the origin magic essence like Atlantians and bid them to do his will.

With this skill, he could quickly replenish the mana in his mana core and a lot of other things, its effects were multidimensional.

His mana empowerment skill like the name suggested empowered his skills. By actively manipulating mana after activation, he could activate another magic skill after it and make the effects of the activated skill stronger than normal.

The percentage of empowerment varied due to a lot of different factors.

The Rasengan, Sebastian grinned on seeing this skill. He was 100% certain that this skill was named this way after his system took a peep into his brain.

Its effects simply entailed gathering and compressing mana to form a terrifying ball of energy that releases a deadly mana blast on activation.

His passive skills were self-explanatory. Most of the skills that he had to activate to use before simply became automated and instinctive.

The tab for origin law comprehension was new. Sebastian was not surprised on seeing that his overall comprehension was still at the initial level. 

Apart from his killer move, he was pretty sure that the comprehension of his other skills that needed it were still stuck at the initial level which warranted this.

As for his new adaptations, Mega Megalodon Jaws was for a more terrifying bite power and speed, Dense Muscle Fiber was for better muscle defense, and his Lancer Snout literally gave him a new mode of attack like his spikes.

As for his inherited magic ability, Sebastian didn't have Verni's luck and he only got the ability without getting the relevant skills.

For now, he would have to do with the normal manipulation of this power until he created telekinesis skills himself or purchased from his system.

With all these, Sebastian had no further doubts, he finally stepped into the realm of powerhouses in Oceania. His system remark was the icing on the cake.

Despite all these gains, new passive skills, bloodline skills, and active skills, Sebastian's upgrade would not be complete without bringing in his new unique skill, the Doppelganger, and Invisibility unique skill!
