Life and Death in One Step
Luo Zheng did not act immediately. Instead, he looked at the entrance of the cave from afar and pondered.
He could feel that there was a warm aura coming out of the cave.
After thinking for a while, Luo Zheng's figure flashed and he jumped into the cave.
"Oh, just as I expected."
Luo Zheng was overjoyed. He hurriedly activated his Hidden Breath Technique and suppressed his cultivation aura to the lowest level. The seawater in the cave was much warmer and no longer bone-chillingly cold. Just by relying on his powerful physical body, he could withstand it.
"Let's explore the cave first."
Luo Zheng did not hesitate and swam into the depths of the cave.
There were many forks in the cave, but Luo Zheng did not dare to explore them with his Divine Sense. He explored them one by one and came back when he reached a dead end.
Anyway, with the Water Avoidance Pearl, he could breathe freely at the bottom of the sea. He could stay as long as he wanted.
"Hmm, what is that? What a powerful Spiritual Qi! "
Luo Zheng entered a fork and swam for a long time. Suddenly, he entered a huge hall and his eyes widened.
Many green plants, like seaweeds, swayed quietly with the waves of the sea. Each of these seaweeds only had three leaves, which were shaped like a dragon's claw.
"Good stuff!"
Although he could not identify what these seaweeds were, Luo Zheng knew that these seaweeds were a kind of underwater elixir that could be used to improve one's cultivation by the Spiritual Qi they emitted.
He could also see some traces of the seaweeds that had just been pulled out.
"These seaweeds may be used by the Two-winged Kraken to improve his cultivation. I will not be polite."
Luo Zheng walked over and pulled out a seaweed by its roots. After sweeping away the soil, he rolled it into a ball and put it in his mouth.
"What a pure Spiritual Qi. It is not inferior to Little Yuan Dan's!"
The Heavenly Sword Formation started to operate. The seaweeds were immediately refined into pure Spiritual Qi and injected into the Primary Sea.
The amount of Spiritual Qi was almost equivalent to a Spiritual Stone.
"Hahaha, we're rich, we're really rich this time. There's so much seaweed."
Luo Zheng was extremely excited. There were more than four thousand stalks of Spiritual Herbs in the hall. Even if they were not enough to raise his cultivation to the peak of the Yuan Nourishing Stage, they would be able to greatly increase his cultivation.
"Let's put it away first."
His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately took action. With a flash of his body, he plucked a stalk of Spiritual Grass and put it into the Qiankun Gourd.
In just a short while, all the Spirit Stones in the cave hall were taken away by him.
"I wonder if there are other places with seaweed. I can't waste it. Everything I get now is mine. If I kill the sea serpent, I won't be able to get so much."
Luo Zheng sped up, shuttling back and forth between the forks, searching.
"Not good!"
Luo Zheng was coming out of a fork in the road. Suddenly, his heart sank and his hair stood on end.
A shocking chill rose up from his spine and went straight to the back of his head. His heart felt cold.
He steadied his mind and laid down on the ground like a rock.
At this moment, he did not make a sound. Even his heartbeat had stopped as he sank deep into the sea mud.
In the deepest part of the sea, there was some sedimentary sea mud. It was very thick and very soft. It was about five to six feet high.
Just as Luo Zheng reached the deepest part of the sea mud, a huge dark green sea serpent with a pair of huge fleshy wings on its back slowly swam out from the deepest part of the sea cave and entered a fork in the road.
"It's over! It's the Double-winged Sea Serpent. It's heading towards the hall where the Changhai Grass grows. I'll be discovered soon! "
Although Luo Zheng was submerged in the sea mud, he could still sense the direction of the sea serpent based on the waves it emitted when it swam.
"What should I do? If I escape now, with my speed, I might not be able to escape the sea surface before the sea serpent catches up with me."
"If I don't escape, I'll be trapped in the sea cave if the sea serpent finds me. I'll definitely die!"
Luo Zheng's mind raced as he weighed the pros and cons. At this moment, he could not afford to make any mistakes. A single misstep would mean death!
"Go!"
In a split second, Luo Zheng made a decision!
Go!
He had to go!
Staying behind would be a sitting duck. This mutated sea serpent had lived in the sea cave for many years. It would be able to detect any slight difference.
Luo Zheng did not use any Yuan Qi. Instead, he used the strength of his body to stomp on the ground.
Both of his hands moved with all his might. The explosive speed was extremely shocking. A white line instantly shot out of the sea cave.
At this moment, an earth-shattering roar came from the cavern filled with seaweed!
The sea cave rumbled as if it was about to collapse. The heavens and earth were shaking!
"This is bad!"
Luo Zheng was extremely shocked. His eyes flashed and golden Yuan Qi gushed out. He transformed into a golden serpent and used all his strength to crash into the wall of the cave.
Rumble!
The wall of the cave collapsed instantly, blocking the entire sea cave. The golden serpent moved and left the cave, swimming towards the sea surface.
However, in just a breath's time, the blocked sea cave exploded. The dark green double-winged sea serpent rushed out.
This sea serpent was about two hundred feet long. Its body was covered in barbed scales. Its fins were like swords and it had huge fangs that were bigger than a city gate. It was extremely terrifying!
The double-winged sea serpent roared angrily and charged towards Luo Zheng!
"Don't do that. I didn't dig up your ancestral grave. At most, I'll return all the seaweed to you. I only ate one."
Luo Zheng looked back and felt like dying. This sea serpent was equivalent to the king of the sea. Its speed was too fast.
The double-winged sea serpent did not care so much. In just three breaths' time, it caught up with him and bit down viciously.
Kacha!
