In the Southernmost Ocean, above a stormy sea.
The sky was already completely bright when a Teleportation Array suddenly lit up on the surface of the sea. Two figures walked out of it. It was King Qi and Lu An.
This was the last place that the two of them had searched before dawn. The sea below was even more turbulent than the first day, and the waves were more than 1,500 feet high. Just one wave alone was enough to kill a Level 6 Heavenly Master.
King Qi looked at the sea below, then turned to Lu An and said, "You can't even go to the bottom of the sea if you go look for it yourself. The current situation in the sea is very complicated. The continuous aftershocks have caused the undercurrents in the Southernmost Ocean to become extremely chaotic. It would be terrible if you were sucked into the sea by one of the undercurrents. Not only the undercurrents, but the newly formed terrain at the bottom of the sea will also cause a lot of water to flow and even create a suction force. "
Hearing King Qi's words, Lu An nodded seriously. He had already seen this during the past seven days under King Qi's protection. He said, "I will be careful. I won't go to the bottom of the sea."
Looking at Lu An's appearance, King Qi simply couldn't imagine how Lu An could find any clues. However, he still said, "Remember, if you encounter any danger, immediately escape. Can't you create a space to hide? Also, if you really find clues about the Imperial Dragon Bone, don't act on your own. Go back to Heavenly Tiger Island and find me first to avoid any accidents. "
Hearing King Qi's repeated warnings, Lu An's heart was filled with warmth. He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
King Qi looked at Lu An worriedly. In the end, he shrugged helplessly and said, "Then I'll go back first. You can look for it yourself."
With that, King Qi opened the Teleportation Array behind him again and entered it.
His figure disappeared, and the Teleportation Array closed, leaving Lu An alone in the Southernmost Ocean. Below him was the deafening sound of the waves.
Lu An looked at the raging sea below and took a deep breath. This was the choice he had made, so he naturally wouldn't back down.
Whoosh!
Lu An's figure descended from the sky and charged straight into the sea below.
Bang!
Lu An's figure instantly sank into the sea. The small waves he created were immediately swallowed up by the huge waves and disappeared without a trace.
In the pitch-black ocean, the water pressure was much higher than usual. The waves on the surface of the sea were not caused by the wind, but by the vibrations in the sea. The chaotic pressure came from all directions. Originally, Lu An could dive to a depth of 50,000 feet, but now, he could only dive to a depth of 40,000 feet.
The depth of the Southernmost Sea Region was even deeper than the other sea regions. Lu An didn't dare to dive to a depth of 40,000 feet. Otherwise, once he got sucked into the undercurrent, it was very likely that he would lose the opportunity to escape due to the strong pressure. Instead, he came to a depth of 35,000 feet. Even in the ocean, there were extremely loud rumbling sounds. Not only did they hurt their ears, but even their internal organs were constantly impacted and affected by the vibrations, causing them to need strength to maintain their Qi.
The surrounding sea surface was pitch-black. In order to ensure his own safety, Lu An did not dare to release too much of his power to illuminate too far away. He only illuminated the surrounding three kilometers. He was not in a hurry to move. Instead, he closed his eyes and allowed himself to calm down completely. He wholeheartedly felt the Monarch Dragon Bone in his body.
Searching for the last piece of the skull was basically like searching for a needle in a haystack. Even if it was a Level Nine Heavenly Master, it would probably take thousands of years or even longer to completely search the seabed. Lu An did not have the ability of a Level Nine Heavenly Master, nor did he believe that his luck would be so good to such an extent. Therefore, he would rather believe in the feeling of the Monarch Dragon Bone.
Lu An knew that both the Immortal Master and the Immortal Empress respected the Monarch Megalosaurus very much. It was very likely that the bones of such a powerhouse had an undetectable perception. Lu An closed his eyes and relaxed his body, allowing the Monarch Dragon Bone to guide him.
Just like that, Lu An stood in the dark ocean for a full 15 minutes before slowly opening his eyes.
Lu An took a deep breath, and his brows gradually furrowed.
There was a trace of … feeling.
This trace was really too little. Even Lu An doubted if it was an illusion or a delusion caused by his own eagerness. However, no matter what, he had to verify it. It was the same no matter where he went, so he might as well follow this feeling.
Immediately, Lu An turned his head and looked towards the north. He was already in the depths of the Extreme South Sea, or even in the inner half of the Extreme South Sea. Even the north was very far from the other sea regions. Lu An immediately moved and flew towards the north at full speed.
Whoosh!!
Lu An's speed was very average. He could do his best to maintain the balance between consumption and absorption, so that he would not be too tired. Moreover, after entering the ocean several times, Lu An discovered that the speed at which he absorbed Heaven and Earth Energy in the ocean was even faster than on land or in the air. In fact, it was much faster. Especially in the Extreme South Sea, it was obviously much faster.
Regardless of the reason, this was a good thing for Lu An. As he moved forward, Lu An spread his perception far and wide to ensure that he would not be swept away by the undercurrents and avoid encountering other strange beasts as much as possible. Fortunately, after an hour, Lu An did not encounter any strange beasts. He stopped again and closed his eyes.
That's right, Lu An once again carefully sensed the reaction of his bones. During the flight, he could not sense such minute changes at all, but this time, he stood still for a full moment.
After a moment, Lu An opened his eyes again. He took a deep breath and continued to look straight ahead, which was the north.
The feeling was still very vague, like an illusion, but this faintly discernible feeling still pointed to the north.
Both times, it pointed to the north. Lu An did not hesitate and once again set off towards the north.
Every hour, Lu An would stop to sense the dragon bones in his body to determine whether he was going in the wrong direction. However, the dragon bones in his body continued to point to the north. After a full six hours, there was no change.
Since it had always been north, Lu An might as well extend the duration of his perception and fly north at full speed.
This time, Lu An flew for nearly four hours before stopping. Flying at full speed consumed a lot of Lu An's energy, so he needed to stop and rest. Lu An took advantage of this break to once again sense the intuition of the dragon bones in his body.
This time, during the process of sensing, Lu An gradually frowned.
It had changed.
The direction had changed.
It was not that Lu An had gone too far. The direction was still north, but it had changed from north to northeast. Moreover, the perception of the Imperial Dragon Bone in his body seemed to be much clearer than before.
Lu An could clearly feel that his bones were slightly numb, but Lu An had just flown at full speed. This made it difficult for Lu An to determine whether it was due to fatigue or the pull between the dragon bones. However, since his perception had become clearer this time, Lu An was happy but also very cautious. If he was really being led to the Imperial Dragon Bone, then there might be a great danger around the last dragon bone. He had to rest well and maintain his peak condition before continuing.
After resting for a while, Lu An set off again. However, this time, his speed was much slower. He expanded his perception and was very cautious. After flying continuously for almost a day, he successfully avoided all the undercurrents. Moreover, the strange beasts he encountered were all relatively weak. It could be said that he was very lucky. However, Lu An did not think that luck would last forever. He did not want to let his guard down and fail at the last moment.
Another half hour passed, and there were less than two hours left before night fell. According to the agreed time, he had to return to Heavenly Tiger Island. Otherwise, it meant that something had happened to him.
Lu An advanced cautiously and stopped frequently. Now that the dragon bones in his body no longer required him to rest and relax, he could clearly sense them as long as he stopped for a moment. This made Lu An even more confident that he had found a clue. Even if it was not the last dragon bone, there must be a very close connection.
However, just as Lu An swam forward, his body suddenly shook and he immediately stopped.
"Buzz — —"
"Buzz — —"
A soft and steady sound suddenly entered Lu An's ears. The source of this sound was obviously very far away. Moreover, a strange beast that could be so arrogant in the Southernmost Sea Region to dare to make such a loud sound was definitely not a good thing!
Lu An's brows furrowed tightly, and he clearly became hesitant.
Advance? Or return to Heavenly Tiger Island and ask Prince Qi to travel with him?
After thinking about it, Lu An still chose the latter. If it was any other sea region, Lu An might not bother Prince Qi. However, this was the Extreme Southern Sea Region. Going back to find Prince Qi would not waste much time. With Prince Qi leading him, he would advance faster.
Immediately, Lu An took action and prepared to set up a transmission array in the sea to leave.
However …
At this moment, a huge shadow appeared in the abyss below.
