The clear seawater flowed through the fairytale-like forest at the bottom of the sea. The seaweed slowly twisted its soft waist and swayed. The light on the trees flickered slightly.
Longyi and the other three entered and found that the inside of the underwater forest was completely different from the outside. The flowers, plants, and trees outside looked as transparent and translucent as jade. There were also various colors of light. But inside, it was deep and serene. Those towering sea trees only had a surface layer of light. When Longyi examined them carefully. He was surprised to find that the thing that made these trees and flowers light was actually an extremely tiny creature. Hundreds of millions of them gathered on the surface of these seabed plants. Longyi guessed that it had something to do with the light of this underwater world. Therefore, not only could those seabed lines not reach the inner layer of the forest, there were no such creatures.
Water plants floated in the underwater forest. The rocks were jagged, and the slippery ground was covered with seaweed. Strangely shaped seabed trees protruded from the seabed sand. The fish shuttled back and forth between the strange light. Occasionally, a few giant clams would open their giant shells to reveal sparkling deep sea pearls. The pearls were dazzling and tempting, and some of the fish were happy to see the light. They swam forward to play. These sea clams suddenly shrank their huge shells, turning the fish into a delicious meal in their stomachs.
The strange thing was that whenever Yamei and Sijiate stroked these sea clams with their hands, they would obediently open their huge shells. The round and large seabed pearls inside could be taken at will.
This was the underwater forest.
After traveling for a period of time,
They didn't encounter any danger, which made Yamei and Sijiate feel a lot more at ease. But this calmness made Long Yi feel uneasy. He always felt that there was a huge dangerous vortex hidden under the calmness.
Suddenly. Liuli's slender little hand tightly grasped Longyi's big hand, and her beautiful blue eyes flashed with a trace of fear.
"What's wrong, Liuli?" Longyi pulled Liuli into his arms. He followed her gaze. What he saw was a withered rhizome of an undersea tree beside a huge rock.
"That tree root is alive. Its aura makes me feel so scared. "Liuli leaned close to Longyi. Her delicate body trembled non-stop.
Longyi was startled and used all his mental strength. However, he did not sense any life or aura fluctuations from the tree root.
Yamei and Sijiate were confused. Obviously, like Longyi, he didn't notice anything.
The fearless Sijiate cautiously advanced with his purple hammer in hand. He touched the withered roots of the tree. He turned his head and said with a smile, "Don't be so paranoid. Isn't it just a tree root? "
At this moment, Longyi's sharp eyes suddenly discovered a few pieces of pale white bones in the mud below the dead wood. A kind of frightening and ominous feeling struck his heart like lightning. All the hairs on his body stood on end.
"Be careful. Come back! "Longyi shouted. The water mark between his eyebrows lit up, and the Eternal Icebound Technique struck the tree root behind Sijiate with his internal force.
Meanwhile. The tree root that was thought to be lifeless twisted strangely. Like a bolt of lightning, it flew towards Sijiate, who had a puzzled look on his face.
"Sijiate …" America exclaimed. They saw that Longyi's Eternal Icebound Technique had frozen the withered tree root and Sijiate at the same time. It formed a prismatic sea blue ice crystal with a radius of ten meters, sealing everything in it in amber.
Yamei's cry of alarm ended, and the frozen amber suddenly shattered. Longyi had already turned into a blur and rushed over. After grabbing Sijiate, he instantly disappeared.
And at this moment. A sharp whistle sounded from all directions, and the entire undersea forest seemed to tremble. The withered tree that attacked Sijiate had already broken into dozens of pieces. Light green liquid slowly spread in the seawater, carrying a strong smell of blood.
Longyi carried Sijiate, Liuli, and America behind a towering tree in the distance. He injected internal force into the unconscious Sijiate's body.
"Longyi, Sijiate will be fine, right?" Yamei saw that her brother's face was as pale as paper and his breathing was weak. Her heart immediately tightened, but seeing that Longyi's expression was normal, she felt slightly relieved.
"He'll be fine. I will wake up in a while. "Long Yi said. Just a moment ago, when he had cast Eternal Freeze. When he released Eternal Icebound, he slightly adjusted the arrangement of the water elements. The cold air enveloping Sijiate was much lower than the other places, so the impact of the cold air on him wasn't too great. He just needed to use internal force to expel the cold air from his body.
As expected. Longyi's internal force circulated in Sijiate's body, and Sijiate groaned and opened his eyes. He stood up and moved around. There was nothing wrong with it.
"What was that thing just now? You scared me. "Sijiate's heart was still trembling when he recalled that moment. At that moment, he smelled the scent of death. If not for Longyi. He would have become a corpse.
Longyi frowned. Thinking of the light green blood, a light flashed in the depths of his mind. He said: "Could it be the legendary Heaven Slaying Squid? I suspect that the withered tree was one of its tentacles."
"I think so too," Liuli said. Just now, she was the only one who had sensed the strange aura from the withered tree.
"Heaven Slaying Squid?" The Yamei siblings' expressions changed, feeling distressed. After all, the Heaven Slaying Squid's reputation was like thunder to the ears of the Sea Race. Many elite adventurer groups had been buried in its belly. In addition, no one had ever recognized its true appearance. This made it even more mysterious and frightening.
At this moment, the strange hissing and shaking had already calmed down. A few frightened little fish swam out from the cracks in the rocks and trees. This undersea forest regained its tranquility as if nothing had happened, but Long Yi's group of four was absolutely not relaxed. The Heaven Slaying Squid was so good at disguising itself. The Heaven Slaying Squid was so good at disguising itself, who knew if a few tentacles would pop out from somewhere.
"Liuli, let's continue forward. Pay more attention. Among us, you're the only one who can sense its aura, "Longyi said.
"Got it, Young Master." "Young Master." Liu Li blinked her azure eyes and replied gently.
After this surprise attack, Ye Xiwen's expression changed. The four of them were on edge. They raised their vigilance to the highest. Just like that, they swam in the undersea forest for a few hours without encountering any danger.
The four of them nimbly shuttled back and forth between the cracks in the rocks and branches in the depths of the undersea forest. The light in the water grew darker and darker. The temperature was somewhat cold. It was so cold that they rarely saw any life.
Liuli grabbed Longyi's hand and said with an uneasy expression, "Young Master, something's not right."
Longyi's pupils shrank as he asked, "Did you sense that aura again?" The Yamei siblings were also on high alert.
Liuli shook her head, and said, "No. It's just that there's an indescribably strange feeling in my heart. "
Longyi's eyes flashed. His bright black eyes were somewhat dazzling in the gloomy seawater. He raised his head and looked up through the thin cracks in the branches and leaves. A few faint blue lights could be seen flickering. He believed in Liuli's feeling, just like how Liuli believed in him. There should be something strange about this place.
At this moment. A few cries of alarm and misery could be heard from afar. Perhaps it was because they were too far away. The sounds were somewhat distorted.
"It's here. It's that kind of aura." Liuli's hand glowed with a rainbow-colored light as she said in fear. It was not that she was timid, but that aura was too terrifying for her.
"Let's go and take a look." Longyi said urgently. This undersea forest was so mysterious, and the unknown danger was a great psychological burden for everyone. Since that was the case, it was better to go out and figure out the truth of the danger. Even if it was a little risky, it was better than being paranoid like now.
Longyi pushed off the ground. He shot up like a rocket, his inner force spreading outwards. Everywhere he passed, the branches and rocks turned into powder. The other three rushed out of the passage that Longyi had opened up.
In the distance, the four of them saw a long pitch-black tentacle stretching out from the undersea forest. A humanoid shadow was curled up in it, and another shadow was crazily swimming and attacking the tentacle.
Long Yi was shocked. Judging from the size of the tentacle, how big was this Heaven Slaying Squid? There was no time to think. Longyi had used the Heaven and Earth Shift to the limit, and he had disappeared into thin air.
"Frank, hold on. You must hold on." Karl shouted himself hoarse as he watched his good brother, who had grown up with him, being pierced by the sharp thorns of the tentacle. His body was shriveling little by little. His heart ached as if it was being torn apart. The Miluo Clan's divine arrow in his hand shot toward the tentacle like a meteor. The divine bow that could break the defense was like a child's toy in front of the Heaven Slaying Squid. It could not cause any damage at all.
"Carl … Go … Go … Take care of Xue Gie …" Frank, who felt that his life was slipping away, was already fainting. He understood. This adventure mission had been a complete failure. Of the thirty-five people in the team, only the two of them were left. Now, he was powerless to reverse the situation. He could only hope that his good brother, Karl, could escape.
"Xue Gie is your fiancé. Take care of her yourself." Karl opened a layer of milky white film on his eyelids. A few drops of tears quickly merged into the seawater. He did not realize that a few swaying green sea vines had silently invaded his back.
