South Sea, Sinking Star Abyss.
The Sinking Star Abyss was bottomless, a very famous trench in the South Sea.
According to the ancient legends left behind by the Sea Race, a star had fallen here in the first era and created a bottomless trench.
Since ancient times, countless Sea Race members had entered the Sinking Star Abyss to explore.
But the Sinking Star Abyss was unfathomable and extremely dangerous. There were all kinds of strange and dangerous Dark Races in the depths. Until now, no one had been able to clearly explore the depths of the Sinking Star Abyss.
After Xuan Ming became a Saint, he moved his palace to the Sinking Star Abyss.
The Sinking Star Abyss was dangerous, but it was full of Spirit Qi. In the vast South Sea, it was impossible to find a second Spirit Realm like this.
After entering the Saint level, the demand for Spirit Qi dropped to the minimum. Only Spirit Qi could have an obvious effect on Saint level cultivation.
Of course, Xuan Ming wasn't satisfied with the Saint level, so he took the risk to enter the Sinking Star Abyss. Of course, for Saint level experts, as long as they were careful, the danger was controllable.
The water of the Sinking Star Abyss was as black as ink, and the deeper it went, the thicker it became.
The seawater tens of thousands of feet below was as thick as porridge. Ordinary Sea Race members couldn't even breathe here. The enormous water pressure wasn't something ordinary Sea Race members could withstand.
So, even though the Spirit Qi here was abundant, not many Sea Race members could reach here.
Of course, there was no lack of Rank Nine Sea Race members who came here to cultivate.
But ever since Xuan Ming moved his Spirit Turtle Palace here, no other Sea Race members could be seen here.
The Spirit Turtle Palace was a giant Spirit Turtle. Just the turtle's back was dozens of miles wide. After being subdued by Xuan Ming, it was refined into a giant palace.
After being refined with a special secret method, the Spirit Turtle's entire body was transparent. In the deep, dark waters, it emitted a crystalline light. Wherever it passed, the entire body of water was brightly illuminated.
The Spirit Turtle's crystalline skin and bones were divided into many rooms. In the center, there was a man-made lake with a covered bridge and a waterside pavilion.
Surrounding the man-made lake were layers upon layers of palaces and halls, exquisite and magnificent. There were even all kinds of flying spirit beasts, plums, orchids, chrysanthemums, and bamboos.
The entire palace was luxuriously built, tall and elegant, like a celestial palace in the heavens.
The interior of the temporary imperial residence was further divided into three palaces and six courtyards. There were hundreds of thousands of maids and guards. They were all elites handpicked by the Sea Race. The women were beautiful and gentle, while the men were handsome and brave.
Yu Qingwei lived in the Shangyang Courtyard of the Western Palace. She was now the leader of the Merfolk Race and the Deputy Alliance Leader of the Sea Race Alliance. In the Spirit Turtle Palace, he would be able to enjoy the Shangyang courtyard all to himself.
Shang Yang Courtyard was located at the highest point of the turtle's back. It had a wide field of vision and could overlook the surrounding sea scenery.
Yu Qingwei had lived here for a while, but he was still quite interested in the surrounding seascape.
The Sinking Star Abyss was very special. At this depth, there were countless dark water creatures.
These aquatic creatures didn't look much different from ordinary fishes and shrimps, but their bodies were abnormally huge and dark. There were many thorns on the scales of the carapace, making it look rather hideous.
Moreover, these dark creatures were especially aggressive. They would rush up and bite anything they saw. Even against a colossal existence like the Spirit Turtle palace, they did not fear them at all.
Most of the Dark Water Tribe members were extremely powerful. At the very least, he was at least Tier Seven.
The Spirit Turtle palace was extremely sturdy, but it could not allow these powerful dark water creatures to attack as they pleased.
There were three thousand Raybolt Crossbows set up everywhere, working day and night. Once they discovered a threat, they would immediately attack.
The Raybolt Crossbows were extremely domineering. Even a rank nine powerhouse would not be able to withstand a single arrow. Although the dark water creatures had strong vitality, they did not have much intelligence.
Under the attack of the Raybolt Crossbow, very few could survive more than three arrows.
Shooting dark water creatures always made Yu Qingwei feel very happy. She had control over ten Raybolt Crossbows here. These days, she had been using them to kill water creatures to pass time.
A huge black octopus waved its tentacles and quickly approached.
Yu Qingwei mainly cultivated the Beast Taming Art. Her consciousness was far more sensitive than regular rank nine powerhouses. She sensed the black octopus as soon as it appeared.
From its aura, it was a rank nine octopus. Unfortunately, its intelligence was too low, and it had a violent nature. There was almost no chance of taming it.
Yu Qingwei opened a water mirror, and an archery formation appeared on it. Through the simple formation, she could control the Raybolt Crossbow, adjust the output of magic power, angle and so on.
The huge crossbow hidden under the firing nozzle was constantly fine-tuned under the control of the formation.
When Yu Qingwei locked onto the dark octopus, the Raybolt Crossbow was filled with magic power. It suddenly turned into a blazing white light arrow and shot out.
The crossbow bolts fired by the Raybolt Crossbow were all made of special materials. They were half ethereal and half real, and their speed was extremely fast. Even a rank nine powerhouse would find it hard to dodge if they were locked onto by the Raybolt Crossbow at close range.
However, a rank nine powerhouse had great intelligence. The moment the Raybolt Crossbow took aim, it would react. They would not just stand there and be a target dumbly.
This dark octopus did not have this kind of intelligence. After the Raybolt Crossbow shot out, it then felt something was wrong. Eight long tentacles danced, wanting to block the Raybolt Crossbow.
However, the Raybolt Crossbow split into three along the way, cleverly avoiding the long tentacles and piercing into the body of the dark octopus.
The explosive pure yang magic power on the crossbow exploded. In the blazing red light, the dark octopus was blasted into thousands of pieces on the spot.
Yu Qingwei admired the explosion effect on the water mirror, the corner of her mouth slightly curled up. She had to admit that sitting in a luxurious and comfortable palace and easily killing a rank nine dark water creature felt really good.
Unfortunately, the Spirit Turtle Palace was not hers. Moreover, Xuan Ming was not friendly to her.
He actually wanted her to marry the Dragon Son of the East Sea. This was something Yu Qingwei could not tolerate.
Back then, the backlash of the soul contract made Yu Qingwei become Gao Zhengyang's female slave. During that period, she was really in so much pain that she wanted to die.
Fortunately, Gao Zhengyang did not ask anything of her, nor did he ask her to do anything strange. Nor did he humiliate her.
After such a long time, he only asked her to go out to battle once, to ambush the Demon Race Sage. In that battle, Ao Zhen of the Dragon Race took action, and there was no danger.
After that, there was no news from Gao Zhengyang, as if he had completely forgotten about her.
Yu Qingwei was worried for a period of time, but she slowly put this matter to the back of her mind.
Without anyone to restrict her, Yu Qingwei lived very comfortably for the past decade. Although there were many old experts in the Merpeople Race, they did not like to show their faces in public.
Yu Qingwei was strong, had high martial arts skills, and was very popular. She firmly occupied the position of the leader of the Merpeople Race. In the Sea Race Alliance, she also flourished.
Her momentum was so great that it even overshadowed the alliance master Xuan Ming.
But when Xuan Ming became a Sage and came out of seclusion, these beautiful days were over.
Xuan Ming targeted Yu Qingwei everywhere, weakening her influence in all aspects. Now, they actually arranged a marriage alliance and gave her away as a pet!
Although the other party was the Dragon Son of the East Sea and claimed to have the bloodline of the Dragon Race, Yu Qingwei could not accept the ending of being a pet.
During this period of time, she was under house arrest here by Xuan Ming, so she also racked her brains to think of a way. But there were also people in the Merpeople Race who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and were actively lobbying within the race.
Several old figures in the Merpeople Race were also persuaded.
The situation was getting worse and worse, and Yu Qingwei was now a little desperate.
"Sister Qingwei, sister is here to see you …"
A coquettish beauty in revealing clothes walked in with a smile and said, "The Dragon Son has arrived at the Sinking Star Abyss. You will meet soon …"
Yu Qingwei's face was cold. The news of the Dragon Son's arrival made her heart sink to the bottom. If there were no special changes, it seemed that her fate could not be changed.
At this moment, a wave suddenly came from the depths of Yu Qingwei's Divine Soul. "Where are you?"
"You, master …"
