The Ten Thousand Calamity Sea was infamous. Many powerful desolate beasts lurked in the deep waters.
To these desolate beasts, the allure of the Fey Luring Grass was not that great …
However … if he used the pure Yuan Qi in the Great Empress mystic realm, it would be different.
Yi Yun took a deep breath and his body plummeted down like a meteor. He entered the sea's surface. Under the impact of the Yuan Qi, the seawater constantly split apart. Yi Yun continued to dive down to a depth of a hundred thousand feet.
At this depth, the seawater's immense pressure and resistance would place quite a burden on Yi Yun's body. Under such pressure, Yi Yun's attacks and dodging would be greatly reduced.
However, Yi Yun could only take the risk. This was because the truly terrifying desolate beasts lurked in the deepest depths of the sea.
If an ordinary warrior encountered such a sea beast, they would not be able to fight it even if they were on the surface, much less at the bottom of the sea. And choosing to do so at the bottom of the sea was equivalent to suicide.
Even Yi Yun had no chance of winning if he met a desolate beast at the bottom of the sea that was equivalent to a peak-sage. He might not even have the chance of escaping.
Yi Yun adjusted his body's condition to its optimal state. He spread his perception around him and was wary of any sudden danger. After confirming that there were no desolate beasts in a fifty kilometer radius, Yi Yun interfaced his mind with the God Advent Tower's disk array and slowly opened the Great Empress mystic realm.
Opening the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance from such a distance required a large amount of Yuan Qi. Yi Yun swallowed an ancient relic and used all his pure Yang energy to open the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance bit by bit with great difficulty.
In the dark depths of the sea, a faint light slowly appeared and gradually expanded, forming a purple whirlpool.
Under the immense pressure, the seawater rapidly spun and surged towards the whirlpool.
A beam of light shot out of the whirlpool and through the hundred thousand feet of seawater, it shot out of the sea and into the clouds.
A gigantic door of light slowly appeared in the depths of the Ten Thousand Calamity Sea. The Great Empress mystic realm's entrance had completely opened.
Yi Yun was not too worried about being discovered by others when he opened the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance deep in the Ten Thousand Calamity Sea, so he could do as he pleased.
The door of light widened as the Great Empress mystic realm's purest Heaven Earth Yuan Qi slowly seeped out from the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance.
It had begun!
Yi Yun interfaced his spiritual energy with the Purple Crystal and opened his energy vision to lock onto any changes in the surrounding sea.
With the energy vision, no matter how dark the seabed was, Yi Yun could easily see the slightest movement within a radius of a few hundred miles. And the stronger the desolate beast, the stronger the energy fluctuations within its body. It could not escape Yi Yun's eyes.
It could be said that the sharpness of Yi Yun's perception underwater exceeded that of desolate beasts at the bottom of the sea.
Deep in the Ten Thousand Calamity Sea, there were not as many sea beasts as on the surface. From the darkness and silence in the beginning, three figures slowly appeared in Yi Yun's energy vision.
They were attracted by the pure Heaven Earth Yuan Qi in the Great Empress mystic realm. Yi Yun could clearly see these huge black shadows, but he did not recognize any of them.
The Untraversable Sea was too deep and too wide. There were many types of desolate beasts lurking in the depths of the Untraversable Sea. And some desolate beasts would rarely surface their entire lives, so it was normal that they were unknown.
The three underwater desolate beasts in front of Yi Yun were between tens to hundreds of meters long. He had never seen any records of them in any books. Maybe in the long history of the Tian Yuan world, there were people who had seen these sea beasts, but those eyewitnesses might have died in the bellies of the sea beasts and never returned. Naturally, they would not be able to record what they saw for future generations.
Although he did not recognize them, Yi Yun could sense how terrifying these desolate beasts were from the powerful energy fluctuations they emitted.
Yi Yun weighed his own strength and felt that he could handle one of the desolate beasts, but if all three were to attack together, Yi Yun could only escape.
Compared to these three deep sea desolate beasts, the Eight Limbed Sea Dragon that Yi Yun had previously shot down was nothing.
Yi Yun gently stroked his interspatial ring and took out the rusty broken sword. He did not move and instead waited patiently.
The three sea beasts did not move either. They formed a triangular formation and surrounded Yi Yun.
These three underwater overlords clearly had high intelligence. They could tell that there was something fishy about the sudden appearance of such rich Heaven Earth Yuan Qi at the bottom of the sea. Not only were they wary of Yi Yun, they were also wary of the other sea beasts.
If these sea beasts were to really fight, it would be hard to tell who would win.
And the more careful the sea beasts were, the more troublesome it was.
Yi Yun waited silently as he clenched the broken sword tightly in his hand. The Sun Shooting Nine Deaths Bow was also taken out by him. He hung it on the crook of his left arm, so that he could shoot at any time.
Of course, the Sun Shooting Nine Deaths Bow's power would be greatly weakened in the water.
The three underwater overlords began to slowly revolve around Yi Yun. This process lasted for fifteen minutes before they suddenly stopped.
This was not the prelude to their attack. On the contrary, they were slowly retreating.
The three massive sea beasts had suddenly retreated far away. This unusual situation made Yi Yun's heart sink.
He saw that from the depths of the Ten Thousand Calamity Sea, a black shadow that was much smaller in size was slowly approaching.
Because of this smaller sea beast, the three underwater overlords had retreated!
In his energy vision, Yi Yun could clearly see that the black shadow was about a dozen meters in size. It had two thick black claws and a tail that was covered in black scales. And on its stout body, there were nine snake-like necks. Each neck had a head.
These nine heads were all in different shapes. Some of the heads had a single horn, while others had three eyes. There were even some that had sharp fangs that resembled spears.
Some of the nine heads had a single eye, while others had three eyes. All of them were staring at Yi Yun.
A sound that sounded like a baby's cry emitted from this underwater fierce beast's body.
Yi Yun immediately held his breath. He recognized what this desolate beast was and found it unbelievable.
He had seen records of this desolate beast in the many manuals left behind by the Azure Yang Lord. In the Tian Yuan world, deep in the Untraversable Sea, there was a powerful nine-headed snake desolate beast. The nine-headed snake was born as a primordial species. When it matured, it would become a primordial true spirit. Even an Empyreal King would find it difficult to fight it head on.
And among the nine-headed snakes, there were an extremely small number of nine-headed snakes that would awaken their ancient bloodline, becoming the evolved form of the nine-headed snake. This was the Nine Neonate.
The black shadow in front of him was the Nine Neonate!
The moment the Nine Neonate was born, it was weaker than the nine-headed snake. However, its growth rate far exceeded the nine-headed snake.
Over time, when a Nine Neonate truly matured, it would become an existence that could destroy the heavens and earth.
However, not every Nine Neonate could grow to maturity.
Such a powerful desolate beast's growth and evolution could attract a Heavenly Tribulation.
A Nine Neonate needed to constantly devour treasures and absorb the essence of the Sun and Moon to make itself stronger, so as to resist the Heavenly Tribulation.
If it could not withstand it, the Nine Neonate would be struck to death by the Heavenly Tribulation, turning to ash.
However, in the Tian Yuan world, there were not many treasures. How could it be easy for a Nine Neonate to evolve?
In the history of the Tian Yuan world, a fully matured Nine Neonate had never appeared in the records. As such, Yi Yun did not know that the Tian Yuan world's Untraversable Sea also had a Nine Neonate.
He originally thought that the Nine Neonate only existed in the 12 Empyrean Heavens.
From this point of view, if the Untraversable Sea's nine-headed snake mutated into a Nine Neonate, it would not be a blessing, but a curse.
And if it was in the Yang God Empyrean Heaven, such a mutation would be impressive. If such a Nine Neonate was intentionally tamed by someone, with a guaranteed supply of treasures, coupled with training and opportunities, the Nine Neonate could even survive nine Heavenly Tribulations, becoming a Nine Tribulation Nine Neonate. That would be a true divine beast, one that could compete with True Dragons and Phoenixes.
"Nine Neonate … I actually encountered a Nine Neonate deep in the Ten Thousand Calamity Sea …"
Yi Yun was pleasantly surprised, but at the same time, he felt a great sense of danger.
The Nine Neonate was extremely powerful. If it was a Nine Tribulation Nine Neonate, killing him would be as easy as killing an ant. There was no doubt about it. Of course, it was impossible for a Nine Tribulation Nine Neonate to be born in the Tian Yuan world. It was just like how it was impossible for a mortal village to nurture a Great Emperor.
Yi Yun clenched the broken sword and the Sun Shooting Nine Deaths Bow tightly. He was extremely nervous. In this battle, he was facing the strongest opponent he had ever encountered in his life!
