"Brother Ling Tian!"
Han Xuenai, who barely managed to stop herself from falling, was horrified when she saw Duan Lingtian being swallowed by the whirlpool on the surface of the sea.
Without any hesitation, she swooped down and sent herself into the turbulent whirlpool.
At the same time, a strange bead appeared in her hand out of thin air.
She crushed the bead as soon as it was in her hand. A seven-colored beam shot up into the sky.
In just a blink of an eye, the seven-colored beam shot up into the sky and only disappeared after a long time.
Boom!
Han Xuenai charged into the whirlpool, but she was not affected by the whirlpool's suction. Her body was covered with a layer of transparent light shield that blocked the seawater around her.
Although she was in the whirlpool, she could still control her body.
In the whirlpool, the turbulent and twisting seawater slammed against the transparent light shield, causing the light shield to shake. However, Han Xuenai did not have the mood to care about this.
Her face was grave as she moved faster and faster, following the whirlpool to the bottom of the sea.
Soon after, she arrived at the bottom of the sea.
At the same time, she also saw the source of the whirlpool. A gigantic creature was lying on the bottom of the sea with its mouth wide open. The energy in its mouth was twisting, causing the seawater to form a whirlpool.
Some of the fish in the deep sea could not escape from the whirlpool and were swallowed by it.
"Sea Devouring Beast! Why is there a Sea Devouring Beast here?! "
Han Xuenai's expression changed as she exclaimed. It was obvious she recognized the gigantic creature in front of her.
In the Dao Martial Saint Land, there were two types of beasts.
One was Saint Beast.
The other was Wild Beast.
When Saint Beasts broke through to the Innate Stage, they would have basic intelligence. They could even speak human language and transform into human form. After they transformed into human form, they were no different from humans.
They could also cultivate Saint Grade Martial Tactics and use Saint Weapons. They were also divided into Martial Cultivators and Dao Cultivators.
Naturally, as Saint Beasts, their bodies were much stronger than ordinary humans. Some Saint Beasts' strength was limited when they were in human form. However, once they transformed into their true form, they could unleash their full strength.
Wild Beasts were different from Saint Beasts.
If saint beasts were favored by the heavens … then savage beasts were abandoned by the heavens.
Unlike Saint Beasts, even if they had broken through to the Mortal Shedding Stage, Saint Rudiment Stage, or even the Saint Stage, wild beasts would not possess human intelligence, let alone breaking through to the Innate Stage.
They could not speak the human language, nor could they transform into humans.
They were similar to the uncivilized wild beasts and ferocious beasts of the Mortal Continent. They survived completely on instinct.
They followed the law of nature, where the strong preyed on the weak and only the fittest survived.
However, even though they did not possess sentience and were unable to morph into human form like the Saint Beasts, cultivate human cultivation techniques, martial arts, and use Saint artifacts, their cultivation speed was in no way inferior to the Saint Beasts.
Not only that, but their bodies were also far stronger than the Saint Beasts.
In a battle between a savage beast and a saint beast of the same cultivation realm, even if the saint beast were to transform into a human and utilize a saint artifact or a saint martial technique, it might not necessarily be a match for the savage beast.
The body of a savage beast was too strong!
Even the weakest one was comparable to the Three-clawed Divine Dragon among Dragons … The stronger ones were even comparable to the Four-clawed Divine Dragon among Dragons.
To a savage beast, its body was its greatest advantage.
Its battle instincts that were trained from hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of battles were its most powerful technique. It was in no way inferior to the Saint Grade Martial Tactic.
At this moment, the savage beast that appeared in front of Han Xuenai was one of them.
A Sea Devouring Beast!
Han Xuenai could tell it was a Sea Devouring Beast at the Early Mortal Shedding Stage.
"You swallowed Brother Ling Tian?"
Han Xuenai's face turned grave as she looked at the gigantic creature in front of her. It was as though it was covered with a layer of frost. The mischievous look in her eyes was no longer there. It was replaced by a cold killing intent.
"Young Miss."
Just when Han Xuenai was about to make her move, two respectful voices sounded in unison.
At the same time, two tall figures appeared behind Han Xuenai and bowed respectfully.
They were two tall middle-aged men. They stood there like two iron towers. Their appearances were ordinary, and they looked more like two ordinary people who couldn't be more ordinary.
However, based on the fact that the turbulent seawater around them did not affect the transparent light shield on their bodies, their strength was far above Han Xuenai's!
"Kill it! Don't hurt Brother Ling Tian who was swallowed by it! "
Han Xuenai ordered coldly.
The two middle-aged men were summoned by Han Xuenai's signal beam earlier. They were sent by her father to protect her.
However, when she left the Dao Martial Saint Land, both of them were 'abandoned' by her in the sea south of the Dao Martial Saint Land.
"Yes."
The moment Han Xuenai's words left her mouth, one of the middle-aged men nodded solemnly and took a step forward at the same time.
The moment he took a step forward, a ray of light shot out from under his feet and pierced through the Sea Engulfing Beast's head in just a blink of an eye, causing the Sea Engulfing Beast to fall with a loud bang.
The moment the Sea Engulfing Beast died, the suction force from its bloody mouth disappeared as well.
Just as its bloody mouth was about to close, the other middle-aged man disappeared into thin air. Even the seawater did not stir at all. It was extremely strange.
When he appeared again, he was already in the Sea Engulfing Beast's bloody mouth.
He did not seem to have made any movements, but he easily opened the Sea Engulfing Beast's bloody mouth. As he opened and closed his hands, the Sea Engulfing Beast's body was forcefully torn apart from its bloody mouth.
However, the bloody scene did not happen.
This was because the Sea Engulfing Beast's body and flesh had been frozen into ice sculptures. They fell like pieces of rocks.
At the same time, the fish that were swallowed by the Sea Engulfing Beast and had yet to be digested managed to escape and swam away.
"Thank you for saving my life, Sir."
There was an old man in the Sea Engulfing Beast's stomach. After the old man came out, he bowed respectfully and thanked the middle-aged man.
He was a human transformed from a demon. He happened to be passing by and was unlucky enough to encounter the Sea Engulfing Beast and was swallowed by it. Initially, he thought he was going to die. He did not expect someone to save him.
"Where's Brother Ling Tian?"
At this moment, Han Xuenai had also arrived in front of the old man. She looked around carefully but did not see any trace of Duan Lingtian. Horror dawned on her.
"Young Miss, there's a mark left behind by a Demon Cultivator on this Sea Engulfing Beast's body. It must've been controlled by a Demon Cultivator to come here. Otherwise, by right, there shouldn't be a Sea Engulfing Beast here. "
At this moment, the middle-aged man who killed the Sea Engulfing Beast and froze its flesh and blood said to Han Xuenai respectfully after glancing at the Sea Engulfing Beast's body.
"Demon Cultivator?"
Han Xuenai's expression changed drastically when she heard this. She realized this might not be a coincidence.
"Did you see a person when you were swallowed by the Sea Engulfing Beast? A young man in purple. "
Han Xuenai took a deep breath and looked at the old man as she asked anxiously.
"I saw him."
The old man nodded. "The moment I was swallowed, I saw a young man who had fainted following behind me. He was almost swallowed as well … At that critical moment, I only saw a black shadow pass by, and the young man was gone."
"A Demon Cultivator controlled this Sea Engulfing Beast and took Brother Ling Tian away?"
Han Xuenai's thoughts soon became clear. At the same time, she looked at the two middle-aged men next to her and ordered, "No matter what, we must find Brother Ling Tian!"
"Yes."
When the two middle-aged men heard this, they immediately split into two directions and began to search in the vast deep sea.
'Who's the person who took such great pains to take Brother Ling Tian away … Since he can control the Sea Engulfing Beast at the Early Stage of the Mortal Shedding Stage, it means he's at least a Demon Cultivator at the Intermediate Stage of the Mortal Shedding Stage.'
Han Xuenai's heart jolted as she thought, 'With his ability, it won't be difficult for him to take Brother Ling Tian away on the surface of the sea.'
'There's only one possibility for him to take such great pains! He's afraid of me. '
Han Xuenai gasped when she thought of this.
'If that's the case … That Demon Cultivator knows he won't be able to take Brother Ling Tian away with me around. That's why he controlled the Sea Engulfing Beast to stall for time. '
Han Xuenai's thoughts became clearer.
'Di Yong! It must be Di Yong! '
After her thoughts became clear, Han Xuenai immediately thought of Wang Ba who had occupied the Five-clawed Devil Dragon's body in the past. He was also the current Di Yong.
'He left a long time ago … He must be after something for him to take such great pains!'
At this moment, Han Xuenai was almost certain the person who took Duan Lingtian away was Di Yong. However, she could not figure out why Di Yong would do such a thing.
'If there's something on Brother Ling Tian's body that he's interested in, it's none other than the Devilseal Tablet. However, would he dare to take the Devilseal Tablet even if it was given to him? '
The Devilseal Tablet could be said to be the nemesis of Demon Cultivators.
The Devilseal Tablet could be called a Super Saint Weapon and was even listed in the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking because of this characteristic. Apart from that, it did not have any other advantages compared to other Saint Weapons.
When Han Xuenai thought of this, she felt it was impossible.
'Could it be because of that pagoda?'
Soon after, Han Xuenai recalled the small pagoda. She and Di Yong could not come into contact with the small pagoda, but Duan Lingtian could.
With just a glance, she could tell the small pagoda was not an ordinary item.
It was to the extent that she had a feeling.
The small pagoda was not inferior to one of the Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking, the Clear Sky Pagoda.
'If that's really the case, Brother Ling Tian should be safe for now.'
When Han Xuenai thought of this, she heaved a sigh of relief.
'If I were him, I would definitely not let Brother Ling Tian come into contact with the Devilseal Tablet if I wanted to seize the pagoda and force it to reveal its secret.
After all, he's a Demon Cultivator … Brother Ling Tian can kill him if he uses the Devilseal Tablet.
In that case, the biggest possibility is that he first obtained Brother Ling Tian's Spatial Ring and used his Spiritual Energy to erase the Ownership Seal on it. '
Han Xuenai gradually calmed down and made a logical deduction.
The Ownership Seal on the Spatial Ring on the Mortal Continent was weak.
