The southernmost sea region, the boundless sea.
A gigantic figure over forty thousand meters long was rapidly advancing on the surface of the sea. It was King Qi. King Qi's speed was neither fast nor slow, but it was definitely not a speed that a rank eight mystical beast could reach. Lu An naturally couldn't keep up with this speed, but as a human, it wasn't suitable for him to move openly in the southernmost sea region. Thus, Lu An hid in King Qi's snow-white fur.
King Qi's snow-white fur was far enough for Lu An to hide in, and it had to be said that this was the softest fur that Lu An had ever touched. It was very comfortable. However, Lu An wasn't in the mood to admire this fur. While hidden, he stuck his head out to look at the sea, trying his best to sense if there was anything special.
In the past, the southernmost sea region was very calm. Even if there was a storm, there wouldn't be too many waves. However, at this moment, the surface of the sea was very turbulent, and the lowest waves were more than ten thousand meters long. In broad daylight, the sea appeared very fierce, as if it was roaring. This was because the earthquake in the sea hadn't completely disappeared. The aftershocks were unceasing, and the initial earthquake was too fierce, causing the waves to continue.
"Do you feel anything?" King Qi asked.
"No." Lu An said loudly. Even though he wanted to give an affirmative answer, the reality was as such. The Imperial Dragon Bone in his body didn't react in the slightest.
He and King Qi had been searching on the surface of the sea for nearly an hour. They had already flown very far, but they still hadn't found anything. While flying forward, King Qi thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that this place is too far from the bottom of the sea? Even if it exists, you can't sense it. How about I take you to the bottom of the sea to take a look?"
Go to the bottom of the sea?
Lu An was startled, then said loudly, "But I can't bear it."
King Qi didn't answer. Instead, he suddenly changed directions and dove into the surging sea!
Rumble!!!
The forty-thousand-meter-long body plunged into the sea, causing waves to surpass eighty thousand meters. It was like an incomparably powerful attack had struck the surface of the sea. King Qi brought Lu An into the sea and rapidly advanced toward the bottom of the sea.
Lu An didn't feel too much pressure. King Qi's power and fur offset most of the water pressure, so the rest didn't affect Lu An too much. Lu An had to be in contact with the water to be able to sense the existence of the Imperial Dragon Bone.
The ocean was pitch-black, but Prince Qi was using his own power to illuminate the surrounding tens of thousands of meters. Soon, Prince Qi arrived at the bottom of the sea. His enormous body stood directly on the seabed. Even now, he could clearly feel the seabed shaking.
However, even after arriving at the bottom of the sea, Lu An still did not notice anything strange. King Qi led him through the depths of the sea. The depths of the Southernmost Sea Region were extremely deep. Even for King Qi, there was obvious pressure.
In the process of searching, they encountered a few wondrous beasts of other races at the bottom of the sea. Naturally, the wondrous beasts that could reach this place were all Rank Nine Wondrous Beasts. However, when these wondrous beasts saw Prince Qi's enormous body and terrifying aura, they didn't dare to provoke him and took a detour. Even in the Southernmost Sea Region, the Sky Tiger Tribe's ferocious reputation was still widespread. Even the Flaming Lion Tribe was not willing to provoke the Sky Tiger Tribe, let alone the other Mystical Beast Tribes.
Just like that, Prince Qi led Lu An to the bottom of the sea for an entire day without any results. When night fell, the two returned to Sky Tiger Island. Lu An waited in the cave while Prince Qi listened to the reports of other clansmen to see if there was any news of the Dragon Monarch Bone.
Not long after, Prince Qi returned to the cave. At this moment, she had already transformed into her human form. She could only shake her head and say, "No news."
Lu An nodded slightly. Although he was disappointed, he still said, "The Sky Tiger Tribe has worked hard. I will definitely remember this kindness."
Prince Qi smiled slightly and walked to the side to sit down. She said, "Let me rest for a while. Perhaps it's not easy to find during the day and we can only find it at night."
Lu An nodded and also sat down to wait.
Not long after, Prince Qi and Lu An set off again. Under the starry sky, they once again entered the sea and dove to the bottom of the sea. There was no distinction between day and night at the bottom of the sea because there was no light at all. Lu An focused on his senses, his gaze constantly scanning the seabed. However, he still did not find any trace of the Dragon Monarch Bone.
On the contrary, during this day's journey, Lu An gained a lot of knowledge about the depths of the southernmost sea. However, this knowledge was of no value to the current Lu An. After an entire night, he still had not found anything.
Lu An's mentality had always been very good. Although he was very anxious, he was able to maintain his calm. However, he felt very apologetic. After all, the one who had been constantly on the move was Prince Qi, not him.
However, Prince Qi did not mind. The sky gradually brightened. After resting in the cave for two hours, Prince Qi once again set off with Lu An, following the path that they had taken before. Because of the earthquake, large areas of the seabed had changed. For example, huge mountains had suddenly appeared, or huge depressions and faults had appeared. Whether it was Prince Qi or Lu An, they carefully investigated the places that they suspected, but in the end, all of their efforts were in vain.
Time flew by. Seven days had passed since Prince Qi and Lu An had begun their search.
During these seven days, the southernmost sea was very lively. Almost all of the Mystical Beast Clans were searching for treasures at the bottom of the sea. Of course, there were many treasures, and many clans had clashed or even fought over them. However, the Sky Tiger Clan, which had always been fierce, rarely did any fighting break out. This was because they only had one goal. The Sky Tiger Clan had never had any desire for heavenly treasures. They were not interested in other treasures at all.
Unfortunately, after seven days, the Sky Tiger Clan still had not found anything. The same went for Prince Qi and Lu An.
After seven days of running around, even if Prince Qi did not say he was tired, Lu An looked very tired and his heart was filled with guilt.
The Imperial Dragon Bone did not benefit Prince Qi in the slightest. From the moment he had met Prince Qi, other than resolving the conflict between the Sky Tiger Clan and the Flaming Lion Clan, he had not brought Prince Qi any benefits. On the contrary, he had repeatedly troubled Prince Qi. This made Lu An feel very uncomfortable.
As the sky gradually brightened, Prince Qi and Lu An once again returned to the cave on Sky Tiger Island. Prince Qi lay down on the side and prepared to rest for an hour before leading Lu An to continue his search.
Lu An looked at Prince Qi, who was resting on a bluestone, and took a deep breath. After seven days, the Sky Tiger Clan had searched a large area, but there was still no news of the Imperial Dragon Bone. Moreover, there was no news of the Imperial Dragon Bone from the other clans. This made Lu An suspect the possibility of the Imperial Dragon Bone appearing.
Either the Imperial Dragon Bone had not appeared in the earthquake, or the method they were searching for was wrong.
Indeed, there was some reaction between the Imperial Dragon Bones. When Lu An had encountered the second and third Imperial Dragon Bones, the Imperial Dragon Bones in his body had felt a little numb. The skull was the most important bone, so this reaction should have been stronger. Could it be that Prince Qi had led him too quickly and had neglected this reaction? Should he … search alone?
This thought had appeared in Lu An's mind for the past two days. He really wanted to do this and not trouble Prince Qi. However, the problem was that the Extreme South Sea was too dangerous. There were many Rank Nine Mystical Beasts. If he encountered one, he would lose his life.
During these two days, Lu An had been weighing the pros and cons. He watched as Prince Qi fell into a deep sleep. Prince Qi, who usually slept most of the time, had not rested for seven days. This made Lu An's frown grow deeper and deeper.
However, he was not a reckless and impulsive person. He did not leave, but waited for Prince Qi to wake up.
This time, Prince Qi slept for a long time. He only woke up after two hours. Prince Qi sleepily sat up on the bluestone. He rubbed his eyes and said, "I'm so sleepy … let me wake up before I leave."
Seeing Prince Qi's red eyes, Lu An got up and walked to his side. He said seriously, "Prince Qi, I want to … search for one day by myself."
Prince Qi's body shook. He immediately opened his eyes and looked at Lu An standing in front of him.
"What?" Prince Qi frowned and said, "You want to search for it yourself?"
"Mhm." Lu An nodded.
"Do you know how dangerous it is?" Prince Qi asked again.
"I know." Lu An said, "Therefore, I will only search for one day. I will be back before nightfall. Prince Qi, you can also rest for a day. If I still don't find any clues, I will listen to Prince Qi's arrangements. "
"…"
Seeing Lu An's serious expression, Prince Qi wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not. He said, "Okay, but if something happens, don't blame me."
