Inquiry about immortality

Chapter 2714 Strange Heavy Water

Within Qin Sang's perception range, there was actually no sign of any living being.

Several turbulent currents converged in one place ahead, their forces colliding and yet maintaining a balance.

Right where the turbulent currents intertwine, a water ring forms, and the scene inside the water ring is like a fountain, looking like a transparent sea anemone to the naked eye.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like a coincidence: the turbulent currents converge here, their forces happen to restrain each other, and this structure just happens to form. The moment Qin Sang sensed the 'Crystal Anemone,' she thought she had mistaken it for something else.

According to Suzaku's description, the crystal anemone was actually a living being, and an extremely dangerous one at that!

The crystal anemone seemed utterly harmless as the turbulent currents washed over it, and Qin Sang chose to trust Suzaku!

'Shuh! '

A burst of sword light erupted!

Qin Sang had been waiting for this moment, and without hesitation, she unleashed the Sun and Moon Twin Swords, turning hostile on the spot!

The sword light reversed and suddenly slashed towards the old man surnamed Mu behind him.

The old man surnamed Mu had long known that Qin Sang wouldn't easily give in. He was planning to personally eliminate Qin Sang after forcing him to scout ahead, ensuring he wouldn't be killed by the dangers in the Deep Blue Sea, and preventing him from reuniting with Jiang and Xie. However, he hadn't expected Qin Sang to turn on him so quickly and even dare to attack him first!

After all, there is a gap in cultivation levels between the two, and their side has the advantage of terrain. Putting themselves in the old man's shoes, the old man surnamed Mu would definitely wait for an ally to appear or to disrupt the situation before taking advantage of the chaos to escape. Qin Sang's choice was unexpected and somewhat reckless!

"court death!"

The old man surnamed Mu was furious.

He didn't take Qin Sang seriously; what angered him was that after the two turned against each other, there was one less stepping stone to guide them.

The Zhenhai Pearl, which had been hovering in front of him, suddenly shot out. At the same time, the pearl spun rapidly, stirring up the surrounding seawater and turbulent currents, turning them into a raging torrent that washed away the sword light.

The twin swords, Sun and Moon, plunged into the torrent, only to be met with a sudden setback as if they had fallen into a quagmire. Their unstoppable momentum was abruptly halted, and their sharp sword light was washed away layer by layer.

As the saying goes, softness overcomes hardness. The old man surnamed Mu is now using this method. The torrent contains the power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, just like the eye of the sea. Once everything in the world falls into the eye of the sea, it cannot escape. The binding force will only become stronger and stronger.

The power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl did not disappoint the old man surnamed Mu. He watched as countless streams of water tightly entangled the Sun and Moon Swords in the torrent, and the sword light became increasingly dim under the scouring of the torrent, and the speed of the advance began to slow down.

The situation was going very well, but for some reason, the old man surnamed Mu felt that something was amiss.

The reason was that it was too easy; the opponent's sword aura was weaker than expected, and he was suppressed so easily by the Sea-Suppressing Pearl. However, thinking about the sword domain that Qin Sang had used before, its foundation was clearly some kind of sword formation, which was not the same as the sword cultivators in Xijue Sword City who only cared about themselves and their swords.

"It seems I overestimated you! Since you're not from Western Sword City, then die!"

The old man surnamed Mu shouted, and the Zhenhai Pearl suddenly split into four. The four pearls flew into the sky above the Sun and Moon Twin Swords, and a powerful suppressive force erupted instantly.

'boom!'

It was as if a mountain had descended from the sky, and the swordplay of the Sun and Moon Swords was immediately thrown into chaos.

At the same time, thousands of sword lights shot towards him, like a meteor shower covering the sky. The old man surnamed Mu remained calm and unhurried. With a wave of his sleeve, a coral grew out of the water in front of him.

The coral is entirely red. It starts as a small piece the size of a palm, but in the blink of an eye, it grows into a huge coral tree, resembling a screen.

'Boom! Boom! Boom!'

Struck by countless sword lights, the coral tree swayed violently, yet remained incredibly sturdy and was not pierced by the sword lights.

At this moment, the Zhenhai Jewel, which was suppressing the Sun and Moon Twin Swords, shone brightly, stirring up a blue light tide. The remaining sword light was swept away by the light tide and shattered.

Having easily deflected Qin Sang's attack, the old man surnamed Mu was about to press his advantage when he was shocked to discover that he had lost track of Qin Sang!

Little did they know that while Qin Sang was drawing her sword at the old man surnamed Mu, she had already taken advantage of the chaos to hide in the small cave!

The small cave is no longer what it used to be. With the climbing vines growing strong, Qin Sang has filled the small cave with the Emperor Rainbow Demon Restriction, which can now deceive the perception of mid-stage Integration cultivators.

Of course, the premise of the so-called "deceiving the heavens and crossing the sea" is that it is unexpected and the enemy cannot predict it. Qin Sang so blatantly hid in the small cave, as long as the old man surnamed Mu guessed the reason and searched for a while, he would still be able to find clues.

However, the old man surnamed Mu probably won't have a chance...

Qin Sang hid in the small cave not to avoid the old man surnamed Mu, but to escape the Crystal Anemone. Zhuque reminded him not to make a move within a thousand miles of the Crystal Anemone.

At this moment, the crystal anemone was indeed startled by him!

'boom!'

Sensing the fluctuations from the battle between Qin Sang and the old man surnamed Mu, the fountain inside the crystal anemone suddenly froze.

With a loud 'boom,' the surrounding turbulence exploded simultaneously, and the crystal anemone was launched into the air, heading straight for the battlefield.

The old man surnamed Mu was astonished by Qin Sang's inexplicable disappearance. He wondered what methods she had used to completely vanish from his senses.

'Shuh! '

The Zhenhai Pearl quickly rose to the surface, continuously scattering layers of blue light that enveloped the battlefield.

No matter what methods this fellow uses, as long as he doesn't escape the range locked by the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, he will definitely not be able to escape! The old man surnamed Mu sneered in his heart. Just as he was about to drag Qin Sang out, a strange creature suddenly appeared in his senses, a strange transparent sea anemone!

The anemone was not large and was moving in his direction, hopping and skipping on the seabed at an incredibly fast speed.

"what is this?"

The old man surnamed Mu had a higher cultivation level and a wider range of perception. He had also discovered the place where the turbulent currents converged, but he didn't pay it any mind.

Who would have thought that a living being was hiding there!

'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'

The crystal anemone glided along the seabed, leaving a long trail with each gentle leap, quickly closing the distance between itself and the old man surnamed Mu.

Despite it being a lovely creature, the old man surnamed Mu felt a strong sense of unease.

"Could it be that Qingfeng had already foreseen the danger of the Crystal Anemone and deliberately set a trap for himself? But how did he know?" The old man surnamed Mu's mind raced, but he could only curse Qin Sang in his heart.

The crystal anemone was rapidly approaching, and his unease grew stronger. Without hesitation, he quickly turned the Sea-Suppressing Pearl back to his head, stirring up a vast expanse of seawater and propelling himself away.

The old man surnamed Mu went all out, unleashing his fastest speed, but unexpectedly, the crystal anemone was also accelerating along with him!

'Whoosh! '

The distance between them was rapidly closing; they were now less than a hundred miles apart.

At that moment, the old man surnamed Mu felt a gaze fixed on him from within the crystal anemone.

That gaze conveyed excitement, but not the excitement of meeting a friend, but the excitement of encountering prey!

'Whoosh!'

The crystal anemone swelled up and rapidly expanded, transforming into a giant anemone in the blink of an eye, its size no less than that of the Typhon giants outside.

As its body swelled, its aura also surged, transforming it from a harmless creature into a terrifying beast that horrified the old man surnamed Mu!

"What on earth is this thing?!"

The old man surnamed Mu was filled with horror; he had never seen such a creature in any ancient texts.

Could they be, like the Typhon giants, descendants of an ancient race from the Holy Realm?

As an elder of the sea tribe, and possessing the extraordinary treasure of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, the old man surnamed Mu should have been exceptionally fortunate in the depths of the sea.

But when faced with this giant sea anemone, he felt the surrounding seawater repelling him, and even the Sea-Suppressing Pearl could not 'appease' it. The power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl was being squeezed out of the seawater little by little!

"Moo!"

The call of giant sea anemones is somewhat similar to the bellow of a cow.

Its calls were cheerful, but to the old man surnamed Mu, they sounded like a demon.

"Get back!"

Knowing that he could not allow the giant sea anemone to plunder the seawater, the old man surnamed Mu used all the power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl, and a dazzling blue light burst forth around him.

Looking out over the battlefield, the seawater around the old man surnamed Mu turned into a crystal-clear sapphire, with blue light stirring up a raging tide on the seabed, with the power to overturn mountains and seas!

Faced with this raging tide, the giant sea anemone's massive body appeared somewhat clumsy, but unexpectedly, it neither dodged nor avoided it, and kept mooing.

"Whoosh!"

The old man surnamed Mu looked up in horror and saw that the sea above the battlefield had split open a huge gap, and endless water was gushing out from the gap, forming a spectacular underwater waterfall.

The water flowed down from the sky, its color somewhat darker than the sea, and its momentum was immense. It was unknown what kind of spiritual water this was, but each drop was as heavy as a thousand pounds, as if it had been condensed countless times to form a rare heavy water in the world.

The surrounding seawater is compressed, and Zhenhaizhu and Nuchao are located directly below the waterfall.

With a deafening roar, the raging tide was smashed through!

"not good!"

Seeing this, the old man surnamed Mu's eyelids twitched. Putting aside the strange power contained in this spiritual water, its unparalleled weight alone was something that ordinary people could hardly resist!

The old man surnamed Mu knew he couldn't prolong the fight, and in fact he kept fighting and retreating, but then he discovered something that shocked him.

He felt the resistance of the seawater increasing, and what was once effortless now felt like struggling to move. Firstly, the power of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl was being suppressed, and secondly, the surrounding seawater was being transformed into heavy water by the giant sea anemone!

Even more frightening is that his domain is also being rejected and suppressed by the sea.

"not good!"

The old man surnamed Mu was shocked. Once the seawater was transformed into strange heavy water, this place would become a prison that confined him, and the giant sea anemones could leisurely enjoy their prey!

'Boom! Boom! Boom!'

In an instant, several beams of light shot out from the old man surnamed Mu's body, bombarding the surrounding seawater one after another.

At the same time, several sea beasts appeared beside the old man surnamed Mu. These sea beasts were all conjured by the Dharma Domain.

After becoming an elder of the sea race, he obtained the remains of several ancient sea beasts, which he specially refined using secret techniques, integrating them into his domain to become his guardian beasts.

These sea creatures are so lifelike, recreated by him as they were before they were born. Each one possesses great strength and clears the way for him, but they still cannot get rid of the giant sea anemones, and the threat is getting closer and closer.

Just then, wisps of blue mist drifted out from the crack. These wisps floated above their heads, seemingly light, but in reality as heavy as the eerie heavy water.

The blue mist landed on the sea creatures, then passed over them and drifted forward, blocking their path.

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly unfavorable to him, the old man surnamed Mu revealed a fierce expression. The strange heavy water and blue mist seemed endless, and he could no longer allow the giant sea anemone to run rampant.

"go with!"

The old man surnamed Mu made up his mind and ordered all the sea beasts to turn around.

The sea creatures have no intelligence, only instinct. Obeying the old man surnamed Mu's orders, they charged at the giant sea anemone without hesitation!

At the same time, the old man surnamed Mu secretly cast a series of hand seals, using a secret technique to forcibly activate the Sea-Suppressing Pearl.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The sea monsters roared and charged at the giant sea anemone, the blue light emanating from the Sea-Suppressing Pearl merging into their bodies, greatly increasing their power.

In an instant, a fierce battle broke out behind them.

The old man surnamed Mu did not choose to stay and help the sea monster, but instead took the opportunity to escape. He did not expect that the giant sea anemone was more ferocious than he had imagined.

'boom! '

Limbs flew off the battlefield. These sea beasts were reborn from corpses, so what flew out were not fragments of flesh and blood, but pieces of white bone.

The old man surnamed Mu was shaken, sensing the death of one sea beast. Soon after, the second one was also shattered into pieces by the giant sea anemone.

The old man surnamed Mu was heartbroken. These sea beasts were not easy to condense, and the remains of ancient sea beasts were extremely rare. After this battle, he didn't know when he would be able to obtain new ones.

Thinking of this, the old man surnamed Mu felt even more hatred towards Qin Sang.

Even the combined might of the sea beasts and the Sea-Suppressing Pearl couldn't stop the giant sea anemone's advance. The old man surnamed Mu was forced to throw out several more treasures and even used his life-consuming supernatural powers to finally create some distance between himself and the giant sea anemone.

Looking back, the old man surnamed Mu couldn't help but gasp. Behind him had become a strange ocean of heavy water, where the remaining sea beasts were struggling. They had no chance of survival!

If he had taken a chance and hadn't decisively abandoned the sea monster and cut off his arm to survive, he would be the one trapped inside now!

'Whoosh! '

A beam of blue light broke through the water, and the Sea-Suppressing Pearl flew back into its owner's hand.

What saddened the old man surnamed Mu was that the treasure's luster had dimmed, and it could no longer be used for a short time.

With a splash, the seawater around the old man surnamed Mu surged, and his figure suddenly merged into the seawater, splitting into thousands of water droplets that shot in all directions.

In a short while, the giant sea anemone killed the last sea beast and continued to hunt down the old man surnamed Mu.

Next, the old man surnamed Mu used several supernatural powers in succession and gave up a treasure before finally shaking off the giant sea anemone.

'Shuh! '

The elderly man surnamed Mu emerged from the water, his face grim.

After this chase, the old man surnamed Mu had no idea where he had escaped to. Fortunately, the giant sea anemone was not very intelligent, otherwise his methods of deception might not have worked.

Damn it!

The old man surnamed Mu thought of Qin Sang, and anger surged up. At this moment, a warning suddenly arose in his heart, and his figure instantly turned into an illusion.

With a 'whoosh', the phantom was pierced by a sword light.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist is so fast, I almost lost him," Qin Sang's voice rang out, and then he appeared in the water, looking at the old man surnamed Mu with a playful expression.

He witnessed the whole thing, and now that he's caught up, he's naturally going to take advantage of the situation and kill him!

The crystal anemone failed to kill the old man surnamed Mu, seemingly not as powerful as imagined. However, Suzaku warned him that this wasn't just one crystal anemone; these anemones often travel in groups! (End of Chapter)
