"That's it then. I'll head back to the Harvest first," Tang Ling said to Cai Dancing Pearl as he held Higan's hand. He then left in a hurry.
Cai Dancing Pearl did not say anything. She was still in a daze as she watched Tang Ling and Higan leave.
Strictly speaking, it was her first time seeing Higan. She really could not believe that such a beautiful girl existed in this world.
It should be known that the Mermaid Race had always been proud of their appearance, especially the female mermaids. Unlike the male mermaids, they would not become ferocious as soon as they entered the battle state, like a half-human, half-fish monster.
Although female mermaids would also transform into a half-human, half-fish monster when they entered battle mode, they were still beautiful. They were the legendary sirens.
Due to all these reasons and their hatred for humans, the mermaids were usually disdainful of humans' looks as if it could increase their pride.
However, Higan's appearance almost shattered Cai Dancing Pearl's pride. She could not believe that such a perfect face existed among humans.
Other than that, the female mermaids were also known as the sirens because of their seductive temperament, but the human girl's temperament was also …
Yes, she was as pure as snow yet had a bewitching charm to her.
However, even though it would slightly shatter the mermaids' pride and make Cai Dancing Pearl a little disappointed, it was not enough for her to be so concerned.
The moment she saw Higan, she somehow remembered a certain prophecy from the mermaids.
"But it can't be so coincidental, right? It's not that easy to meet her. " Tang Ling and Higan were already on the skiff heading towards the Harvest. Cai Dancing Pearl gazed at Higan's back, unable to come back to her senses.
"But … it does seem to fit the description." With that thought in mind, Cai Dancing Pearl's eyes shone with hope and anticipation, but it quickly dimmed down.
"Forget it, forget it. It's impossible. She's just a teenage girl. How could she be the one in the prophecy? " Meanwhile, Tang Ling and Higan had boarded the Harvest. In the blurry mist, their figures were blurry.
Cai Wuzhu also put away her random thoughts, took a deep breath, and walked towards the front of the warship's deck.
As she moved forward, layers of translucent ash rose from the deck, and there were grayish-white particles of various sizes on the deck.
These were the remnants of the Universal Source Stone that she had used up.
She and Wu Mingzhu were known as the most outstanding geniuses of the Mermaid Race in the past five hundred years. After all, the Mermaid Race had a long lifespan, but their fertility rate was extremely low. Furthermore, the children they gave birth to would have various defects due to various reasons.
It was not easy to give birth to a flawless clansman, let alone a genius!
The geniuses of the Mermaid Race could not be mentioned in the same breath as the geniuses of the human race. They were born with powerful abilities. Otherwise, the Dancing Rainbow Beads would not have been able to continuously chant for nearly 60 hours, day and night.
However, after 60 hours, even Colored Dancing Pearl felt a little tired. In the following time, Colored Dancing Pearl had to sing the Awakening Battle Song that consumed a lot of energy. Only then could she wake up all the sleeping geniuses.
At this time, the Dancing Rainbow Pearl had already arrived at the bow of the ship.
Thousands of uncut Universal Source Stones were placed neatly at the bow of the ship. Colored Dancing Pearl took a deep breath and looked around cautiously. Then, she began to arrange the pile of Universal Source Stones in a strange arrangement.
If a human was present at this moment, they would definitely be surprised to find that the arrangement of the Universal Source Stones was very similar to the super technological patterns. However, they could still tell the difference at a glance.
What was even more amazing was that in the center, Colored Dancing Pearl had piled the Universal Source Stones into a small triangular pile. It looked very similar to the ruins of the Qian Civilization, the pyramids. Of course, there were slight differences in the details between the two. Colored Dancing Pearl's piling up gave off a natural feeling.
After finishing the arrangement, Colored Dancing Pearl seemed to have expended a lot of energy. She wiped the fine sweat off her face and sat down to rest for three minutes.
Such a small task, even an ordinary person wouldn't feel tired doing it, right?
However, all of this was a secret of the Mermaid Race. Only the Mermaid Race knew about the mysteries within. After resting for a few minutes, the Colorful Dancing Pearl sat in the middle of the pile of Universal Source Stones, facing the small triangular pile.
She took out a dark purple colored stone that looked like a Universal Source Stone but emitted a denser energy. She placed it on top of the small triangular pile.
After the small stone was placed on the small triangular pile, something magical happened. The pile of Universal Source Stones exploded with a tremendous amount of energy as if all the energy in the pile was forced out.
On top of that, a wave of energy appeared in the surroundings and started to gather towards the pile of Universal Source Stones that Colored Dancing Pearl placed on top of. The energy penetrated the thick mist and even caused a gap the size of a basketball to appear in the gloomy land that was shrouded by the thick mist. Dazzling sunlight shone through the gap even though it only lasted for half a minute.

"Huh?" Tang Ling suddenly opened his eyes and saw the glimmer of light, but it quickly vanished.
Other than Tang Ling, no one else on the Harvest noticed the slight change since Tang Ling was very sensitive to energy.
What caught his attention was not the glimmer of light, but the dense energy that gushed over him.
Even though Tang Ling sensed something, he did not want to ask about it. Because in the conversation just now, Cai Wuzhu hinted that all the young geniuses had listened to her singing for about 60 hours in a row. If they wanted to wake up on their own, they would need at least a week. If she wanted them to wake up quickly, she had to sing the Awakening Warsong.
The awakening battle song was one of the mermaid race's secret techniques. Even if she wanted to sing it, she would need some preparation, so …
So, even if she sensed something, she must keep quiet. Was that what she meant? Of course, Tang Ling understood, so he closed his eyes again.
He was a little worried in his heart. He could not help but think of the Underground race and the saying, 'Those who are not of our race are not of our kind'. The mermaids were powerful enough to put humans to sleep with their singing. If they did something to humans …
Hopefully, his cooperation with Colored Dancing Pearl was the right choice. Until now, he still had no idea why Colored Dancing Pearl followed him into the Death Mist Zone. This would indeed make people feel a little uneasy.
With that in mind, Tang Ling forced himself to sleep.
According to what Colored Dancing Pearl said, the Death Mist Zone had grown a lot bigger this time, so the core area must have changed as well.
The mermaids had a top-secret piece of information.
The gist of the information was that the mist was actually some kind of mysterious energy that floated around the sea and absorbed the energy from the sea.
The bigger the mist, the more energy it absorbed from the sea. Why was that? The secret was hidden in the core area of the Death Mist Zone.
What kind of answer was that? It sounded ridiculous!
However, it did not stop Tang Ling from guessing that the core area might be a powerful being or a vicious beast or some mysterious dangerous zone in the sea. Who knew? The sea had become a stranger to him. There were many strange places and strange phenomena that humans could not explain.
Before that, he had to maintain his peak condition and rest was a must.
Tang Ling closed his eyes. Under the tremendous pressure, he soon fell into a deep slumber.
If there were any powerhouses around, they would be shocked by Tang Ling's ability. It might seem like something trivial, but as a matter of fact, it meant that Tang Ling's control over his body had deepened.
After all, when it came to self-control, the first thing that people would think of would be controlling their body. As a matter of fact, when the ability was strengthened, it would bring about many miraculous changes such as sleep control, hunger control, and …
Someone once said that the ability to control one's body might become the third greatest ability after the Genetic Chain Ability and talent ability.
However, the ability was difficult to strengthen and there was no way to cultivate it, so no one had reached a high enough level to verify the theory.
Right before Tang Ling fell into a deep slumber, Colored Dancing Pearl's singing came from the warship in front of him.
This time, the singing had completely exceeded the scope of a song. It was like a faint whimper, but it was as if one could see a bloody battlefield after a battle, with smoke billowing everywhere.
It was at that moment that a woman's voice came from the battlefield. She sounded like she was sobbing and singing an ancient tune.
Tang Ling had goosebumps all over his body when he heard the voice. He could not help but feel a sense of desolation in his heart.
"If you want to enter the core area, take the time to rest and avoid being affected by my singing. Place the Heart Tone Conch beside your ear. If both your ears are fine, you can get rid of the disturbance from my singing. "
It was a special hint from Colored Dancing Pearl, but Tang Ling did not do it at the moment. He wanted to know what the so-called awakening battle song was like.
It was at that moment that Colored Dancing Pearl's singing became clearer from the faint, and the emotion of the song changed from desolation to agitated rage.
Following the angry chant, an urge rose in Tang Ling's heart. He felt like a warrior on the frontline with the hatred he had for the enemy and the determination to fight to the death.
The other crew members of the Harvest had retreated to the cabin. Their ears were stuffed with earplugs made of special stones that Colored Dancing Pearl had given them to Tang Ling.
The earplugs were not as useful as the Heart Tone Conch, but it could greatly reduce the influence of the awakening battle song on one's mind.
Tang Ling raised the Heart Tone Conch and placed it beside his ear.
He had to admit that the mermaid's singing was amazing. Even Tang Ling, who had strong self-control, could not help but feel fearless and have the urge to fight.
