"Let's go, we will attract more jellyfish." Yuxiu returned to the boat and immediately drove it towards the Prisoner Sea in the center of the Dead Sea.
They were still very far away from the Prisoner Sea. After leaving the jellyfish territory, their boat returned to the surface of the sea. This way, they could save spirit stones.
"You … How did you do it?" The two-headed eagle looked at Yuxiu with shining eyes. This was the Dead Sea, and the number of jellyfish was not small. He could not even defeat one, yet this monarch killed so many.
Yuxiu looked at him indifferently, "You are just too weak."
The two-headed eagle's chest tightened. Of course he knew he was too weak, but to be said out in front of everyone, he still felt hurt.
"How fast is your boat?" Mo Rongzhan asked.
"Very fast." Yuxiu said.
Mo Rongzhan pointed at the Prisoner Sea island in front of them, "Did you notice? We have never gotten close to that island. It is as if we are in the same place."
Yuxiu looked carefully, and it was indeed as Mo Rongzhan said. They were clearly moving forward, but they did not get close to that island. It was as if the island could move, and as they got closer, it would move backwards.
"What is going on?" Yuxiu frowned. This did not make sense. They were clearly moving forward.
"I heard that there is a type of sea demon in the Dead Sea that can make people lose their senses and demonic power. I have no demonic power at all, so I must have been targeted by that sea demon." The two-headed eagle lied weakly on the boat and said.
He suddenly felt very tired, as if all his strength had been sucked out.
Mo Rongzhan and Yuxiu became vigilant, and carefully looked around. They had never met a sea demon before, so they did not know what they looked like.
"Listen carefully." Yuxiu whispered to Mo Rongzhan.
Amidst the waves and the sea breeze, there was a faint sound of chanting.
Mo Rongzhan listened carefully, as if someone was singing softly from afar. The voice was very beautiful, and although it was very soft, they could still hear it if they listened carefully.
He felt his vision blur, and his mind seemed to be attracted by the singing. The distant Prisoner Sea island was getting further and further away.
Something was wrong!
Mo Rongzhan was shocked, and immediately used spiritual power to protect his mind. He grabbed Yuxiu's arm, "Come back!"
Yuxiu was also attracted by the singing. He only came back to his senses after Mo Rongzhan shouted at him.
He looked at Mo Rongzhan in surprise. "What's that sound?"
To be able to become the Thearch of the Upper God Continent, Yuxiu had extraordinary self-control. Yet, he was still dazed by a few lines of the song. It was clear how powerful the song was.
"Someone is singing." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice. His mental fortitude had always been excellent. If he were to listen to this song any longer, it would definitely suck away one's soul. Seeing that the double-headed eagle had already lost all consciousness, he knew that.
Yuxiu protected his mind and stopped listening to the singing. "I've heard that there's a kind of mermaid that lives in the sea that can bewitch people by singing. However, the mermaid race has already gone extinct. There can't be mermaids here."
Mo Rongzhan also guessed that it was a mermaid. "There is a mermaid in the human world now."
"How is this possible …" Yu Xiu exclaimed. If there were mermaids in the Barren Hell, there was no way the Upper God Continent would not know about them.
"Where is the sound coming from?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice. He no longer argued with Yuxiu about the existence of mermaids. Shang Er said that Ah Bu was not a mermaid. He believed her words. No one knew mermaids better than the White Dragon.
Yuxiu stopped listening to the singing and tried to recall the direction of the singing. He pointed to the east and said, "It seems to be coming from there."
Very good! It was the same direction as the singing he just heard.
"Go there." Mo Rongzhan said. He and Yuxiu looked at each other and stopped the boat in place. The two figures instantly disappeared from the boat.
The water of the Dead Sea was different from what they had seen before. Even though the sky was bright, there was still a thin layer of fog on the surface. The dark water seemed to be able to engulf people at any time, and there was no telling when the sea demons would appear.
Mo Rongzhan and the others followed the sound. The singing did not stop. The other party definitely did not know why there were still people who were not bewitched. Therefore, the singing became louder and louder. Even if Mo Rongzhan and the others did not deliberately listen, they could still hear the singing.
They could not tell whether the singing belonged to a woman or a man, but they had never heard such a beautiful voice before.
Yuxiu's expression was very heavy. He was almost sure that this was the singing of a mermaid, but … the mermaid race had been exterminated many years ago.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the mermaids were the spiritual pets of the celestial race. Because a mermaid seduced a general of the celestial race, she gave birth to a half-demon and half-god mermaid. In a rage, the Divine Lord exterminated the mermaid race. Although there were fish that escaped the net, after so many years, even if there were any that escaped the net, they had already been eliminated.
"Be careful!" Mo Rongzhan shouted. Water splashed everywhere and a long strange fish appeared on the surface of the sea. That fish was at least ten meters long and had a human face. It looked like a snake or a fish, and it had countless feet. It looked very strange and disgusting.
"This can't be a mermaid, right?" Yuxiu's eyes widened. If this was a mermaid, how blind must the previous celestial race general be to have a child with such a mermaid?
"…" The corner of Mo Rongzhan's mouth twitched. "It only has a face that looks like a god's face. It's not a mermaid."
Yuxiu said, "That scared me to death. I also felt that mermaids shouldn't be so ugly."
"Hiss!" The human-faced fish rushed at Yuxiu, as if it could hear Yuxiu talking about it.
"The singing doesn't just affect us. The other sea demons in the sea are also bewitched." Mo Rongzhan said. Other than the human-faced fish that was attacking them, there were many other creatures floating on the surface of the sea. They didn't look like they were dead, but their symptoms were similar to the two-headed eagle.
Yuxiu said, "I'll deal with this monster. You go find the mermaid."
"Okay." They were able to conceal their existence like this, so the singing mermaid must be nearby. While Yuxiu was holding off the human-faced fish, Mo Rongzhan's figure disappeared into the thin mist, continuing to look for the mermaid.
He had a feeling that Abdo was inseparable from this place. As long as he found the singing mermaid, he might be able to find out.
The mist became thicker, and the singing became clearer. Mo Rongzhan completely covered his ears so that he wouldn't be bewitched by the singing.
Mo Rongzhan took out the luminous pearl and moved forward in the mist. The waves on the sea had already calmed down. With the light from the luminous pearl, he could vaguely see a figure in front of him.
A handsome youth was sitting on a rock. Below him was a fish tail covered in gorgeous scales. The tail was very beautiful and also very big. It was swaying and sweeping the surface of the sea. He didn't seem to feel Mo Rongzhan's approach and was still trying his best to sing.
A mermaid!
