Mingshi Yin who was sleeping soundly in a dense forest was jolted awake by a sudden clap of thunder. He shuddered and rose to his feet.
With a push of his palms, the Greenwood shattered into pieces and scattered in the air. Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Qiong Qi ran over, wagging its tail. Mingshi Yin looked around warily. He rubbed his head.
"I'm dreaming again. Of all the things I can dream of, I just had to dream of Master."
Woof woof woof, woof woof woof …
Qiong Qi turned around and barked a few times.
Mingshi Yin said, "Stop screaming. I have a headache now. "
He raised his head and looked at the dusky sky. The gloomy environment was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
"It's been half a year. Come with me to Great Shang."
Woof woof woof.
Qiong Qi called out a few more times.
Mingshi Yin looked out of the dense forest suspiciously. Pairs of glowing eyes appeared in the misty forest in the distance.
"Wolf pack?" Mingshi Yin touched Qiong Qi's forehead. "Let's go … I think I know where the blue crystal is."
Qiong Qi stopped shouting.
Mingshi Yin leaped onto the dog's back and rose into the air before he flew toward the human city.
…
Lu Zhou retracted his power.
With Mingshi Yin's abilities, there was no reason he could not find the Blue Crystal within half a year. From what Black Lotus knew, Purple Lotus's overall cultivation was similar to Red Lotus's. With Mingshi Yin's abilities, he should have found something after half a year. What went wrong?
At this moment, Lu Zhou felt the heat rising from the ground. It was even hotter than before. It was unbearable.
"Power of Taixuan."
Lu Zhou was only left with a small portion of his Supreme Profundity Power. Due to this, his Life Palace's resistance to high temperatures was greatly reduced.
It almost caught fire again.
After being roasted for half a year, not to mention humans, even ordinary metals would have long since melted into molten iron.
Lu Zhou frowned as he observed the changes in his Life Palace.
The fusion was already 99% complete, but the final step was exceptionally difficult.
He felt as if his dantian's Qi Sea was being pricked by thousands of fire needles.
"Violet Glaze."
Lu Zhou produced the Purple Glazed Glass.
But on second thought, would this affect the Life Gate too much?
The Purple Glazed Glass could disperse a large amount of cold, which was equivalent to making the Extreme Land disappear.
This wouldn't do.
Lu Zhou had no choice but to put the Purple Glazed Ceramic away.
When Lu Zhou saw that he did not have much Profound Power left, he decided to meditate and recover his Profound Power.
Perhaps it was due to the high temperature, but the Essence Qi here was very thin. It would take a long time to recover from comprehension, and the recovery speed was extremely slow.
But that was no longer important.
Anyways, it would take a long time to pass. Even if Tai Xuan recovered, he wouldn't be able to leave. It was better to calm down and slowly recover.
…
The Boundless Sea.
On the boundless sea.
Zhu Honggong slept soundly on Dang Kang's back. His saliva kept dripping from his mouth.
Lu Li was speechless. Zhu Honggong was not cut out to be a local tyrant. His image was not intimidating at all. If he did not help from the side, it would have been difficult for Zhu Honggong's charisma to make the hundreds of thousands of Hong Sect disciples submit to him.
Crash — —
A sea beast suddenly leapt out from the sea ahead.
Lu Li was confused.
"What happened?"
Logically speaking, in this kind of weather, the sea beasts should be very calm, so why would they suddenly jump out of the sea?
He hastily woke Zhu Honggong up.
Rubbing his eyes, Zhu Honggong asked in a daze, "Are we home?"
"It's still early. Be careful. There's something up ahead."
They had been flying for a long time, but it was still the boundless sea. Zhu Honggong felt empty inside. He said with dissatisfaction, "I should've stayed in Yellow Lotus.
"It's better to stay in Huanglian. To be honest, His Majesty treats you and me very well. I almost got a wife."
Lu Li said, "I should've stayed in Yellow Lotus.
But have you ever thought that they are nothing but beautiful skeletons to you, short-lived blooming cactus? When they grow old, you'll still look the same. When your son grows old, you'll still look the same. Think about it. You'll be lying by your bed, looking at your son's white hair, wrinkled face, and weak breathing as he complains to you … "
"Alright, alright. I'm f * cking convinced." Zhu Honggong shuddered at the thought.
Crash — —
A sea beast with dark skin leaped out of the sea.
Lu Li frowned as he observed the changes in the sea.
Under the sun's illumination, he could see a black shadow moving past. The shadow was as huge as a mountain.
Lu Li was shocked. He said, "Quick, steer Dang Kang and climb higher."
"Oh."
Zhu Honggong realized the severity of the situation. He immediately steered Dang Kang into the sky and entered the mist.
Visibility was poor in the mist. He could barely see what was below.
"Don't disperse the mist. Just advance slowly. We'll be in danger if we're discovered, "Lu Li said from experience.
"Old Lu, what's going on?"
Lu Li said.
"The king of the oceanic beasts."
"The king of the oceanic beasts again? Should I go down and kill it for the Birth Chart Heart? "Zhu Honggong asked.
"No."
Lu Li said, "You know too little about oceanic beasts. Back when I had five Birth Charts, I accepted a mission from the Black Tower to head to the Boundless Sea to kill the king of the oceanic beasts. Do you know why I had to kill the king of the oceanic beasts? "
"I won't ask. You'll suffocate yourself to death," Zhu Honggong said.
Lu Li ignored him and continued to speak.
"That's because the king of the oceanic beasts has the ability to command. Every once in a while, the king of the oceanic beasts will lead a large group of powerful oceanic beasts to attack human cities. To ensure the safety of the captive grounds, the Black Tower will kill it. "
"Why don't they send someone stronger?" Zhu Honggong asked, puzzled.
"Those with eight Birth Charts are the Adjudicators, and above them are the Elders. They're revered and won't take risks easily. They'll only send someone if I'm dead to ensure that the king of the oceanic beasts won't come ashore, "Lu Li said.
"Then why didn't they come this time?" Zhu Honggong heard the sound of waves coming from below.
"I don't know."
Lu Li shook his head and said, "We've been gone for too long. Perhaps something has happened to the Black Tower. The Black Tower has its own method of divination. Every six months, someone will patrol the sea. Of course, the king of the oceanic beasts might not always show up. Sometimes, the divination will be wrong and the king of the oceanic beasts will come ashore. Under such circumstances, the Black Tower can only send the Adjudicators to end the battle quickly. "
"The Black Tower is despicable," Zhu Honggong said.
"There's nothing we can do at times …"
"What do we do now? If we don't see anyone from the Black Tower, won't the oceanic beasts be fearless? "Zhu Honggong asked, puzzled.
"Perhaps we're still very far away. Perhaps this isn't the Boundless Ocean where the black and red lotuses are. Perhaps … there are too many possibilities," Lu Li said.
"We're doomed, doomed, doomed … We're really lost," Zhu Honggong said.
"Impossible."
Lu Li took out a jade token from his pocket.
The jade token glowed faintly.
When Zhu Honggong saw the jade token, he exclaimed in shock, "You have something like this?"
"This isn't a treasure. It's used to guide the way. Not long after we stepped into the yellow lotus domain, it glowed again."
At that time, their cultivation bases were too weak, and they could not cross the Boundless Ocean.
"Rumble …"
A low whimper resounded in the sky.
It pierced the clouds.
It was so loud that their eardrums hurt, and their heads buzzed.
Lu Li frowned. His expression was grim as he said, "It's a high-tier king of oceanic beasts."
"…"
"If you go down now, you'll end up in its stomach." Lu Li's words extinguished Zhu Honggong's desire to go down.
He could not forget who he was after defeating Wang Chao. That would not do.
"High-tier beasts are so powerful?"
"Maybe only the Nephilic Judges can deal with them … I wonder where they're going. The humans are in for a disaster."
Lu Li sighed.
…
Black Lotus, Great Circle Palace.
Dark Emperor Mu 'erte paced back and forth in the corridor with his hands behind his back.
A figure came and landed behind him. The figure dropped to one knee and said, "Your Majesty, there's a report from the frontline. The beasts of the Boundless Ocean are heading toward the red lotus domain."
Dark Emperor Mu 'erte turned around. His eyes glowed as he said, "Good! I've been waiting for this day! "
"Your Majesty, Chen Wuwang has gone to the Dark Radiance Alliance. I believe they'll be willing to work with us."
"Alright."
Mu 'erte said to his trusted aide, Eunuch Zhang, "Deploy the Dark Soul Sect. I want to bring Warrior Anser back."
"Understood."
