Chapter 2713 Crystal Sea Anemone
Isn't this the Thunder King's cave, or the habitat of the Typhon Giants?
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but wonder if they had been tricked, and that the jade slip was not the token to open the Thunder Lord's Cave at all, but they had no idea where the problem lay.
Could it be a conspiracy involving that amethyst skeleton?
The roars rose and fell, as if hundreds or thousands of Typhon giants had been awakened, and the ferocious rage in the roars was terrifying.
A powerful aura erupted from the source of the roar, but this aura was still quite far away and seemed rather strange.
"bluff!"
Youyan snorted coldly, as if she had noticed something.
Upon hearing this, everyone calmed down from their panic and used their secret techniques to investigate, discovering that these auras did not seem real.
"phantom?"
The Typhon giants have been absent from the world for a long time, and people of this era do not understand their abilities.
If this Typhon giant thinks he can frighten people with these illusions, he is being rather naive.
But the deafening roar was so real that it was hard to tell if it was real or fake. If they misjudged the situation, by the time they realized something was wrong, there would be no way out.
"Guard the entrance!"
Old Mu snorted softly.
The vortex they entered through had not dissipated. As long as they guarded this entrance, they could move in and out freely, using it to probe the strength and authenticity of the Typhon giants before deciding whether to advance or retreat.
If Typhon was the only guardian of this mysterious cave, they would have a chance if they were willing to pay a price.
Before he finished speaking, the sky and earth suddenly collapsed behind him.
Everyone looked back in horror, only to see that behind them, beneath the whirlpool at the entrance, the sea surface had suddenly cracked open, revealing a deep trench, and the land deep within the trench had also split open into ravines.
Giant waves surged and rocks pierced the sky.
Within the crack, several powerful auras were awakening, each one seemingly comparable to the Typhon giant before them!
At this moment, everyone's expression completely changed, and there was no longer any hope left.
They finally understood that Typhon's purpose in summoning illusions and roars was not to frighten them, but to awaken their kin who were slumbering at the bottom of the sea!
The Typhon giants in this mysterious cave are not numerous, but each one possesses terrifying strength!
Even with everyone working together, they struggled to deal with just one Typhon giant; if they were surrounded by these Typhon giants, their fate would be predictable.
"Come on!"
Elder Mu revealed a horrified expression, his tone revealing panic. Even with his strength, he wasn't confident he could escape unscathed, let alone the others.
Unexpectedly, before everyone could escape, a dense purple light burst forth from the crevice and shot towards the entrance vortex.
The purple light was directly in the center of the vortex and spread out instantly. The vortex turned purple and solidified, looking like a piece of amethyst with concentric rings.
Not only the vortex, but also the void around the vortex and the seawater on the surrounding surface were connected to the seabed through the purple light, and became as solid as the earth!
Although no one had personally experienced it, everyone knew that this amethyst was undoubtedly indestructible!
It's important to know that it wasn't just one Typhon giant who made the move; the Typhon giant deep within the rift awakened and cut off their escape route!
"What do we do now?"
Xie Jing looked terrified.
At this moment, they could vaguely see the shadows below the crack. The Typhon giants were about to rush out of the abyss, and they could not possibly break the amethyst and escape from this mysterious cave before they were surrounded!
"Let's keep moving forward!"
Just as everyone was caught in a dilemma, the girl in the purple dress suddenly spoke, pointing forward with her delicate hand, her tone resolute.
Upon hearing this, everyone had different thoughts. Charging forward meant that they had given up their way out and were only delaying for a while. Later, they would be trapped in this mysterious cave by Typhon, like turtles in a jar.
They were not on the side of favorable timing or location. The Typhon Giants were the masters of this mysterious cave, so how could they possibly understand the environment here better than the Typhon Giants?
But if they didn't do that, they would be surrounded by the Typhon giants, and they seemed to have no other choice.
"Look there, there are no illusions!"
The girl in the purple dress wasn't acting rashly; she had keenly noticed something amiss.
Following her finger, everyone looked and saw that the Typhon giant had just taken the full force of their counterattack. This kind of unpretentious collision was the purest form of power. The Typhon giant was outnumbered and slightly weaker. His figure trembled, and he was forced back several feet before he could dissipate the force.
The Typhon giants were so massive that every move they made could stir up towering waves.
The girl in the purple dress pointed behind the Typhon giant, where an endless ocean stretched out, its surface shrouded in mist, its shadows indistinct. But the illusion did not cover the entire sea; at the end of the illusion, there was a clear boundary, beyond which no trace of the Typhon giant could be seen.
At first glance, an ordinary person might suspect that this is the Typhon giant's power reaching its limit, only able to create such a large-scale illusion. However, upon closer inspection, one can discover the clues: the seawater outside the boundary is clearly a darker color than the water beneath them.
There seems to be something in that sea area that makes the Typhon giants very wary, and they dare not extend their supernatural powers over it. There must be something strange about it!
Under normal circumstances, they would be extremely cautious, but since there was a being feared by the Typhon giants there, it would only be more dangerous.
But with the crisis looming, there was no time to think things through. Elder Mu and Youyan took the lead and rushed towards the deep blue sea.
They hadn't forgotten that there was still a roadblock ahead!
Elder Mu continued to urge the golden auspicious cloud, crashing straight into the Typhon giant.
Youyan knew she couldn't be trapped here. Relying on the second feather fan alone probably wouldn't be enough to resolve the current crisis. She deliberately slowed down her escape technique, and at the same time, the last feather fan flew out from the halo behind her head.
As soon as the feather fan was produced, Youyan's aura fluctuated violently, as if the feather fan was extremely taxing, even she could hardly bear it.
Fortunately, the two Netherworld Demons behind them caught up.
The two Nine Nether Demons used some unknown supernatural power, and darkness spread towards Youyan, intertwining with the darkness around the three of them.
In Qin Sang's perception, it was as if the sea of fire composed of the Nine Netherworld Demonic Flames had merged, and the power of the fusion was poured into the feather fan. Finally, the feather fan stabilized, and he unleashed his strongest blow at the Typhon giant, who was still unsteady on his feet!
'boom!'
'Whoosh!'
Golden auspicious clouds and black winds from feather fans arrived simultaneously, along with attacks from Qin Sang and others.
Although the giant Typhon wanted to stop them, he dared not be careless in the face of such a terrifying attack and could only defend with all his might. He raised his arms and crossed them in front of his chest, and his whole body burst into purple light. The purple light spread from his legs to the sea surface, and huge waves rose up around him. The waves were instantly frozen into purple mountains by the purple light.
'Boom! Boom! Boom!'
The attacks from all sides struck Purple Mountain almost simultaneously. Before they could even check the results, they flew over Purple Mountain and headed straight for the deep blue sea.
At this moment, everyone used their strongest escape techniques, fearing that they would fall behind and be entangled by Typhon the Giant.
The fastest among them were three members of the Nine Nether Demon Clan. The third jade fan not only suppressed the Typhon Giant but also greatly increased their speed. Moreover, the speed of all three of them surged simultaneously, transforming into a black cloud that was even faster than Elder Mu's speed.
However, Qin Sang was the most outstanding performer.
He didn't know what the Vermilion Bird and the Banyan Tree King were up to, and faced with the crisis, he dared not hold back any longer. He used the Wisdom Fist Seal to travel faster, and for a moment he was even faster than the girl in the purple dress and the old man surnamed Mu, which attracted everyone's attention.
An angry roar came from behind.
The Typhon giants, who had just awakened, burst out of the sea and immediately gave chase.
Fortunately, the girl in the purple dress was very observant, and fortunately, Elder Mu was decisive enough. If they had reacted any slower, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The deep blue sea lies ahead.
Gazing at the deep sea, everyone felt a strange unease, wondering what dangers lurked within.
'Swish, swish, swish! '
As the group flew across the boundary and entered the deep blue sea, an astonishing scene unfolded: the Typhon giants behind them had indeed given up the pursuit, merely lingering outside the boundary and roaring at them.
Sensing this scene, everyone was unsure whether to be happy or worried.
Before they could think any further, the moment they stepped into the deep blue sea, a sudden change occurred. They felt a blur before their eyes, and suddenly found themselves surrounded by azure blue, inexplicably found on the seabed.
It's unclear whether the sea level suddenly rose or they were pulled down.
At the same time, a turbulent current erupted on the seabed, catching everyone off guard. Their formation was instantly disrupted, and they were involuntarily swept away in all directions by the turbulent current.
Separation at this time is not a good sign, but the change was too sudden, and in the blink of an eye, they lost all trace of their companions.
Among the crowd, only Qin Sang remained calm, a strange glint in his eyes. Just as he stepped into the deep blue sea, he suddenly heard Zhuque's telepathic message.
Since he hadn't lost track of the guy, Qin Sang immediately felt relieved and began to survey his surroundings. At this moment, he was being pushed along by the turbulent currents of the ocean, and he didn't know where he had been swept away to; he had lost all trace of Elder Mu and the others.
"Should we go back and meet up with Suzaku?"
Qin Sang had this thought, but then rejected it himself.
The voice of the Vermilion Bird was very faint, as if it were far away, and it was transmitted through some means, and only had time to deliver a short reminder.
Let's find out what's going on here first...
Qin Sang tried several times and finally managed to break free from the turbulent current.
He was suspended in the water, but he couldn't stop. The underwater currents were constantly changing, and he didn't want to be swept away by them again.
For a moment, he had no goal and was about to randomly choose a direction to explore when he suddenly saw what looked like a figure among the turbulent currents in the distance.
"Hehe, so it's Fellow Daoist Qingfeng! We are indeed destined to meet. The turbulent currents have actually brought you to my side."
The other party also spotted Qin Sang, its voice carrying from the seawater, and then flew straight towards Qin Sang.
Qin Sang's expression darkened; it was actually an old man surnamed Mu.
Jiang and Xie claimed to be old friends with him, and Qin Sang could sense the hostility emanating from the old man surnamed Mu on the way here.
Qin Sang once asked Jiang and Xie about it and learned that they had a long-standing feud with the old man surnamed Mu. The two sides had once fought over a treasure left by the Thunder Lord in a certain Thunder Lord's cave. In the end, Jiang and Xie used a trick to get the treasure, and from then on, they were hated by the old man surnamed Mu.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Mu!"
Seeing the approaching Elder Mu, Qin Sang did not flee. Instead, she cupped her hands in greeting and said, "The situation in this sea area is unclear. It is fortunate that we met. Why don't we go together to find Elder Mu? In case we encounter danger, we can help each other out."
Upon hearing this, the elderly man surnamed Mu was slightly taken aback.
He had always wanted to eliminate Jiang and Xie to reclaim the treasure, but he had failed. After encountering Qin Sang, he had no chance. His first thought upon seeing Qin Sang was to take advantage of her being alone and cripple Jiang and Xie's power. However, he was not blinded by hatred and greed. Qin Sang was right; this sea area was so feared by the Typhon giants that it must be extremely dangerous. Now was not the time for infighting.
However, the difference in their cultivation levels was too great, so he couldn't kill them directly. But that didn't mean he had no way to deal with them. Right now, he just needed a stepping stone.
With a change of heart, the old man surnamed Mu put on a smile, "Fellow Daoist is right. I have been restless ever since I was scattered. I must find Elder Mu as soon as possible!"
"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Mu has any good ideas?"
Qin Sang took the initiative to greet the elderly man surnamed Mu, seemingly without any suspicion.
The old man surnamed Mu had suppressed his killing intent and sighed, "I gave Elder Mu a nine-layered conch shell for communication before. I just tried it, but I don't know if it was blocked by turbulence or some unknown force."
As he spoke, he pointed in a direction, “When we were swept away, I saw that Elder Mu was swept there. With Elder Mu’s strength, he will be able to get rid of the turbulence soon. If we go there to search, we shouldn’t stray too far.”
Qin Sang nodded, "I will do as you say, fellow Daoist."
He used his sword domain to protect himself and was about to take action when he saw the old man surnamed Mu standing still.
The old man surnamed Mu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Qingfeng is proficient in swordsmanship and has a keen spirit of progress. Few forces in the world can restrain you. Why don't you go ahead and explore the way, while I will cover your retreat?"
"Fellow Daoist Mu, you don't want to watch me go down and die, do you?" Qin Sang said coldly.
“Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand,” the old man surnamed Mu chuckled, his left cheek opened, and a ball of blue light flew out. Within the light was a round, azure bead, resembling a divine pearl that stabilizes the sea.
When this precious pearl appeared, the surrounding turbulent currents seemed to calm down a bit.
Qin Sang's pupils suddenly contracted, and a look of fear appeared on her face. The old man surnamed Mu was in a uniquely advantageous position here!
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, this Sea-Suppressing Pearl of mine can protect you and will never let you fall into danger," the old man surnamed Mu said with certainty.
The precious light of the Zhenhai Pearl spread towards Qin Sang, seemingly helping him to calm the turbulent currents, but it also subtly revealed a threat.
Whether he was protecting her or coercing Qin Sang into becoming his pawn, only the old man surnamed Mu himself knew.
Qin Sang's face darkened, she snorted coldly, and leaped away.
Protected by sword light, Qin Sang simultaneously unleashed the Wisdom Fist Seal and fled with all her might. Unexpectedly, the old man surnamed Mu was like a fish in water underwater and easily caught up with her.
It seems that relying solely on escape techniques is clearly insufficient to shake off the old man surnamed Mu.
The old man surnamed Mu could never have imagined that Qin Sang was not thinking about getting rid of him, but was having the same idea as him.
Just now, Zhuque sent a telepathic message, reminding him to be careful of a creature resembling a crystal anemone in this deep blue sea.
He didn't know what it was, but the fact that it could prompt Suzaku to give a special warning and prevent the Typhon giant from crossing the line meant it must be extremely dangerous.
We can take advantage of the old man surnamed Mu to test the strength of the crystal anemone.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Sang used her escape technique to move swiftly through the turbulent currents, flying an unknown distance before finally sensing something amiss. Ahead of her appeared a crystal anemone that matched the description of the Vermilion Bird.
"found it……"
