On the surface of the Blue Sea, the seawater was a deep shade of blue. It was calm like a huge sapphire, but when the waves surged, it would become extremely terrifying and destroy everything.
The sea could contain everything and also destroy everything. It was the cradle of civilization.
On the Blue Sea, islands were scattered like stars in the sky. Nobody knew how many there were.
The islands were big and small. Some of them were inhabited by life, while others were abandoned and uninhabited. They were not suitable for living, much less for normal cultivation.
It had been a month and a few days since the Dark Shadow massacred 100,000 Shark Clan warriors. Previously, all the islands had been sealed off, making it difficult for flying ships to enter or leave. However, they could not seal off the islands for too long. Otherwise, it might cause a riot.
The four suspicious Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders pursued Chu Mu. After being infuriated by Chu Mu, they entered the sea to investigate. Inadvertently, they let the others go. As for the humans and Sea Creatures who continued to search, they did not know that their appearances and auras had changed. They spread out and acted alone, blending into the crowd and becoming inconspicuous and even harder to find.
The flying ships restarted and connected to the land.
Merlin, Wen Fei, and Dragonwing blended into different flying ships and headed inland. They were enslaved by Chu Mu. If Chu Mu was alive, they would also be alive. If Chu Mu died, the seeds planted in their minds would shatter and explode, severely injuring their minds and even causing them to die.
They kept a low profile and tried their best not to attract attention, evading inspection time and time again.
…
In the sea, the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders met again.
"I didn't find him."
"I didn't find him either."
"That's impossible. How could a mere human escape our pursuit at the bottom of the sea?"
"Let's work together and use the Major Sea Exploring Spell," the fourth said.
"Alright, let's work together."
Immediately, the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders stood in four different directions. Their expressions were solemn as they waved their hands, causing the water around them to ripple.
They used the Sea Exploring Spell.
Blue light gathered in the hands of the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders. It grew stronger and stronger, resonating with the surrounding seawater.
Immediately, the four of them formed hand seals and pushed forward. Four balls of light converged and merged into one before exploding, turning into a blue ripple that spread out at an indescribable speed. In the blink of an eye, it swept across a range of tens of thousands of meters and spread even further.
The blue ripple spread not only in all directions but also up and down.
The four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders maintained their hand seals and pushed forward. Everything that the blue ripple passed would appear in their minds and be perceived by them.
In an instant, the ripples of the Great Sea Exploring Technique swept across a range of more than a hundred thousand meters. Furthermore, it continued to spread even further, and also even deeper.
Very quickly, the blue ripple passed through the narrow trench and went deep into the trench. In the blink of an eye, it reached where the dark sword monument was, where Chu Mu was.
When the blue ripple was about to pass by Chu Mu, there was a flash of black light from the Dark Sword Stele. The blue ripple directly passed through the Dark Sword Stele and Chu Mu, heading even further in.
When the blue ripple expanded to its limit, it disappeared, as if it had disappeared into the sea.
The four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level contenders all had ugly expressions because they had not discovered anything.
When the blue ripple passed by Chu Mu, it was affected by the power of the Dark Sword Stele and directly passed through. As a result, the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level experts were unable to sense it and missed it.
Even the Major Sea Exploring Spell that the four of them had used together could not find any trace of Chu Mu. For a moment, the four of them had no idea what to do. They sank into their thoughts in anger.
Chu Mu did not know about this. He had no idea that he had almost been sensed. If he had been sensed, it would have been difficult for him to escape.
"Inform the clan warriors to start a search in this sea region. I don't believe that a mere human can be faster than our Sea Race in the sea. He must have some kind of secret treasure to conceal his aura."
"That's right. Have a large group of warriors start a search. Don't miss a single spot."
"Apart from this person, there are four others. We can't let them go either."
Immediately, the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level experts used the unique method of the Shark Clan to communicate. After a while, a large group of Shark Clan warriors came from all directions to greet them. Then, they carried out their orders and started a detailed search of the sea region.
As for the four Shark Clan high-level Saint-level experts, they left to search for the other four.
Even if they could not find Chu Mu, it would not be bad if they could capture the other four. At the very least, they could use this opportunity to capture them one by one.
…
Ordinary Shark Clan warriors, even high-level Shark Clan warriors, would not be able to penetrate more than a thousand meters into the sea trench. Moreover, they would not have a treasure like the Water Avoidance Pearl.
Chu Mu was unaware of all that had happened because he was already attracted by the Dark Sword Stele in front of him.
As he approached, he could clearly feel the pure darkness aura emitted from the Dark Sword Stele. It had existed since time immemorial.
Just like when he was comprehending the Light Sword Stele, his eyes were fixed on the Dark Sword Stele. He stared at the patterns on the Dark Sword Stele, eliminating all distracting thoughts and focusing his mind.
In a flash, the Dark Sword Stele disappeared. The patterns rapidly expanded and finally enveloped Chu Mu.
Being in the darkness, he could not see anything. It was as if his eyes were blind.
He could not see, he could not touch, he could only rely on his senses.
The darkness was deep, the darkness was deep, the darkness was pure. Chu Mu could not help but think of the scene when he was comprehending the Light Sword Stele. At that time, it was as if he had entered a world of pure light. There was only light and nothing else.
Now that he was in the darkness, Chu Mu had a feeling that this darkness was similar to light. They were both so pure, so deep, so … domineering.
Light and darkness were opposites. Just like water and fire, they were even more absolute than the opposites of water and fire.
Where there was light, there would be no darkness. Where there was darkness, there would be no light. Light and darkness could not coexist. This was common knowledge.
If one studied it more deeply, they would understand that light and darkness were essentially the same.
Wandering in the darkness, he couldn't see, hear, or even smell. However, Chu Mu had a feeling that gradually, he seemed to merge with the darkness, becoming a part of it. He became a tiny particle in the darkness, bobbing up and down in the ocean of darkness.
The Divine Light Will in his spiritual world emitted a strange fluctuation. Waves of bright light bloomed, illuminating the entire spiritual world. It also filled the entire spiritual world, containing all the power. It also seemed to assimilate all the power. It stuck close to the barrier of the spiritual world, forming a barrier of light.
Endless darkness and power wanted to enter Chu Mu's spiritual world, but it was blocked by the barrier of light set up by the Divine Light Will. It could not enter at all. The two sides resisted, and the Divine Light Will in his spiritual world shone brightly.
Darkness and light could not coexist!
Under normal circumstances, the power of darkness and the power of light would definitely cause a great conflict in such a situation. However, Chu Mu was keenly aware that the confrontation between the power of darkness and the Divine Light Will was not as intense as he had imagined. It seemed very intense, but there was no determination to determine life and death.
The darkness was endless. There was no beginning or end. Chu Mu was immersed in an epiphany.
"Darkness, black, pure black. It cannot tolerate other colors. This means that it is very domineering. It cannot tolerate other powers. It is like night descending and covering the world. Everything in the world is enveloped in darkness. It will not disappear, but it will be submerged in the darkness, moving at the same pace as the darkness."
"In other words, in addition to being domineering, darkness also has the characteristic of tolerance."
"Darkness can tolerate everything except for light. Once light appears, either darkness retreats, or light is extinguished."
"Light is also very domineering. Everywhere it passes, it covers everything. It cannot tolerate other colors, and only pure light is left. However, other things can exist in the light. Just like the day, wherever it goes, light will appear. Therefore, in essence, light and darkness have something in common. They are equally domineering and equally tolerant …"
Under the epiphany, traces of understanding appeared. Chu Mu gradually understood something. It was an indescribable mystery.
With a thought, the tyrannical power of divine sense combined with sword will tried to suppress the Divine Light Will and attract the power of darkness into his spiritual world. However, the power of the Divine Light Will was too strong. No matter how much force Chu Mu exerted, it was difficult to suppress it. Instead, there was a kind of momentum that made him stronger.
After resisting for a period of time, he was still unable to suppress the Divine Light Will and cause the power of darkness to enter his spiritual world. Helpless, Chu Mu could only temporarily give up.
Thinking back to the process of obtaining the Divine Light Will, Chu Mu did not comprehend the Divine Light Will on his own. Instead, he obtained the Divine Light Will by chance.
At that time, he obtained the Divine Light Will because he was undergoing nirvana beside the Light Sword Stele. When his soul underwent nirvana, the calamity was too strong and almost caused his consciousness to sink. It was the support of the Light Sword Stele that strengthened Chu Mu's consciousness and prevented it from being extinguished. Therefore, he also obtained the Divine Light Will.
"Could it be that I have to undergo nirvana again to obtain the Divine Light Will?" Chu Mu thought to himself.
He did not know what benefits obtaining the Divine Light Will would bring him, but he had a feeling that obtaining the Divine Light Will would definitely bring him great benefits.
The Light Sword Stele was right in front of him. If he missed it, he would be a fool. He had to seize this opportunity. However, if he underwent nirvana, there would be a huge fluctuation and his location would be exposed.
How should he choose?
After a moment of hesitation and thought, Chu Mu made a decision. If he had not discovered the Light Sword Stele, it would have been fine. However, since he had discovered it, it was his opportunity and he had to seize it.
Breakthrough!
