Chapter 123 The Mysterious Palace Under the Sea
Chapter 123 The Mysterious Palace Under the Sea
At this time, Jing Cangming was sitting on the back of the "island" and moving with it.
Wherever you look, you see fish swimming around.
Jing Cangming was already dazzled by what he saw. In just a short while in the sea, the types of war beasts he saw were far superior to what he had seen on land over the past decade.
During this period, small fish war beasts kept approaching Jing Cangming, but they did not seem to have any hostility, they were just out of curiosity.
They swam to Jing Cangming's face, spit out two bubbles, and turned away.
However, none of the larger war beasts came forward, even out of curiosity.
"It seems that this big guy is quite authoritative," Jing Cangming said happily as he looked at the "island" under him.
Now, relying on the existence of the "island", most of the war beasts can be filtered out.
The war beast that Jing Cangming wants to choose must be the kind that is fearless and unstoppable.
As the "island" continues to dive, it has now reached a depth of three hundred meters.
Many kinds of animals that I had never seen before came into view.
There are shark-shaped, whale-shaped, octopus-shaped, and a variety of fresh species.
But as it gets darker, the surrounding colors begin to become darker than above.
Suddenly, there was a loud "BOOM!!!" and the entire "island" shook.
Jing Cangming also staggered and almost lost his seat.
At this moment, Jing Cangming became a little nervous, looking around intently, fearing that he would be attacked by some unknown creature.
But after looking around, Jing Cangming did not find any animals attacking the "island".
But Jing Cangming still didn't dare to let his guard down, after all, this was an unknown deep sea area.
This is not land, and Jing Cangming doesn't even have a single war beast he can summon here.
Even war beasts with plant attributes are not acceptable. After all, although they are aquatic, they cannot be soaked in water.
If Jing Cangming encountered trouble at this time, he could only run away with his tail between his legs.
Jing Cangming originally thought that although his ability to move instantly would be hindered at the bottom of the sea, it would not be unusable.
So the first thing I thought of was that if I encountered a powerful war beast, I would attract it to the surface of the sea.
Using Xiaojiu flying in the air, Xiaoyi stood on Xiaojiu's back and spewed magma, quickly building a temporary "ground" on the sea.
Although this method has not been certified, it is the best solution at present.
There is another method that is not very effective, which is to steal eggs.
But this method has two disadvantages. The first is that it is dangerous, and the second is that the type of egg is unknown.
Generally, animal eggs are guarded by the mother animal. If the egg is lost, it is impossible to be sure what kind of animal is inside the egg.
What if it is an ornamental species, or a fodder species with a large and common population?
This put Jing Cangming in a difficult position, and for now he could only use himself to "fish" the war beast.
After a very long time, as the "island" dived, it was now about 1,800 meters below the sea.
Now it is basically pitch black all around, with only a little light occasionally provided by some animals whose organs have luminous properties.
Moreover, at a depth of 1,800 meters, the water would normally have been flattened long ago, but it was thanks to this bead.
Jing Cangming was secretly delighted, "My luck is really good. I want to contract a marine war beast, and hey! A bead falls from the sky for me. Hahahaha."
At this moment, Jing Cangming was actually somewhat proud of his luck.
But just as he was indulging in his pride, trouble came!
I saw the "island" under him swinging its body vigorously.
Jing Cangming thought he was attacked again and immediately became alert.
However, as the "island" continued to sway its body, the soil and wood on its back seemed to have broken off and floated toward the sea.
What’s strange is that the trees that were originally in good condition on its back were immediately crushed by the water pressure after leaving its body.
The tree that Jing Cangming was holding was no exception. Except for the part that was wrapped by the beads, the rest of the tree was broken into pieces! Dust!
And the "island" finally revealed its true face.
Its entire appearance is like a turtle that is hundreds of meters long.
Flowers, plants and trees grow on its shell.
The huge head kept floating in the water, and the limbs were vigorously beating the sea water to continue swimming downstream.
At this moment, Jing Cangming suddenly remembered what this thing was.
There used to be a very old book in my cellar.
The whole thing is earthy yellow, I don't know if it was originally this color or if it has been oxidized over a long period of time.
This book looks very tattered, with some corners and pages missing.
At that time, Jing Cangming had seen this kind of animal in a book.
The book says that the beast's name is Lu Yun Mountain Turtle!
The book clearly stated that this guy was a descendant of a dragon! But there were too many generations between them.
It is said that among real dragons, a dragon gives birth to nine sons. This guy is the descendant of Ba Xia!
However, because of the large gap in generations, the Lu Yun Mountain Turtle no longer has the appearance of a dragon on its body.
However, the qualities inherited from the bloodline of its ancestor Ba Xia were not lost, but just evolved a little.
According to legend, Ba Xia likes to carry heavy loads, but Lu Yun likes to bask in the sun while carrying a mountain turtle.
When they bask in the sun, they will fall into a deep sleep, which can last for dozens of days or even decades. During this period, plants and soil will grow on their backs to a greater or lesser extent.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a moving "island", but the island is self-generated.
However, once it leaves the sea surface and reaches the deep sea area, it will automatically shed the things on its back and return to its original appearance.
However, it was not this feature that concerned Jing Cangming.
The reason why he was interested in this war beast was because this guy was simply a "treasure-hunting beast!"
According to the records in the books, this guy usually sleeps on the sea surface and slowly moves his location over time.
But once this guy wakes up, it means he has found the treasure.
Jing Cangming only remembered this guy when he revealed his true face and shed his shell.
Now Jing Cangming is getting more and more excited, which means that as long as he follows it, he will definitely find the treasure!
Thinking of this, Jing Cangming quickly used several instant teleportations to catch up with the distance he had wasted when he was recalling just now.
When he came to the side of this huge monster, he followed it quietly. After all, Jing Cangming didn't want to fight with it.
"But... the bead in my hand is also a treasure! Why isn't it coming towards me?! Is what the book says false?! Or... is this thing not a treasure at all?!"
But then Jing Cangming stopped thinking about it and quickly caught up with Lu Yun carrying the mountain turtle.
As he and Lu Yun continued to dive with the mountain turtle, Jing Cangming felt more and more creepy.
Because the scene in front of him didn't look like an ordinary seabed.
Because the scene before his eyes was a palace emitting blue light!
That's right, it's a palace! This palace is even bigger than the five Magma Beast King Palaces combined!
Although Jing Cangming was horrified at this time, Lu Yun, the mountain turtle, swam towards the palace.
Jing Cangming gradually stopped following because he didn't know who or what kind of beast built the palace in such a place.
While ensuring safety, let's just observe for a while.
Jing Cangming hid behind a reef and stared at Lu Yun carrying the mountain turtle swimming straight ahead.
Just as this guy approached the palace, with a loud bang, a wave of water surged out from the hundreds of meters tall azure gate.
The scope of this water wave is so huge that it almost covers the entire facade.
The Lu Yun Mountain Turtle was instantly knocked over by the waves and kept spinning in circles.
Jing Cangming naturally did not escape the disaster, and both he and the reef were blown away.
Compared with this big guy, he was just spinning in circles, while Jing Cangming actually rolled out in circles.
Jing Cangming held the bead tightly in his hand. He knew very well that if he lost the bead, he would die.
After a long time, Jing Cangming finally stabilized his body in the water, but a terrifying breath instantly made all the hairs on Jing Cangming stand up.
Jing Cangming turned around in shock, "Ah!!!!"
After a scream, he quickly disappeared into the distance.
This guy also caught up. It was an octopus-like beast, but the difference was that each of its eight claws had a barbed blade on its tip.
And its eyes are blood red, which makes it obvious that it is a ferocious beast!
Jing Cangming now has no choice but to run, but this guy is also very fast, after all, the water is his territory.
Jing Cangming is now extremely nervous. If he doesn't find a way to escape, the result will be death.
This eight-legged knife octopus is almost catching up with Jing Cangming.
One of its tentacle came towards Jing Cangming, trying to wrap around his ankle.
Just when he was about to touch Jing Cangming, he made a sharp turn.
Then, he rushed towards the palace with all his might. When he had the strength, he would teleport. When he had no strength, he would swim forward desperately and use the water current to propel himself.
Jing Cangming was determined to do it. "Even if I die today, you can't live either!!!"
As he said that, Jing Cangming rushed towards the gate. At this time, Lu Yun carrying the mountain turtle was also not far ahead.
Sure enough, a wave of water spread out again, but Jing Cangming found the right time this time. When the wave was about to touch him, he immediately activated the teleportation technique and came to the back of the wave.
Jing Cangming stood there in a daze, as if he had not yet recovered from the excitement he had just experienced.
After a while, it was discovered that Lu Yun's mountain turtle and the eight-legged knife octopus were all spinning in the same place.
"What should we do now? Do we really have to enter this palace? But if we don't go in, these two guys will immediately regain their mobility, and the eight-legged knife octopus will attack again!"
Jing Cangming was in a dilemma at this time. There was a wolf in front of him and a tiger behind him. He didn't know how ferocious the wolf was... However, it was known that the tiger was indeed quite ferocious.
"Ah!" Jing Cangming sighed heavily! Then his brows began to relax slowly.
His eyes were fixed on the azure palace. "Damn it! Even if I die, I can't die at the hands of this stupid octopus!"
After saying that, he turned around and glared at the eight-legged knife octopus fiercely, "If I come out alive, you can just wait for me to skewer you and eat you!!!"
Then Jing Cangming swam towards the palace without looking back.
Jing Cangming was running very fast, and his hair was fluttering behind him due to the sea water.
The black-red hair fluttered in the blue-black sea, which made it very dazzling.
At this time, the water waves once again rushed towards Jing Cangming.
After the first success, the second time was obviously easy.
Jing Cangming avoided it easily and then approached the gate quickly.
"So far, no unknown creature has appeared. Is this palace abandoned? That's not right. But if it was abandoned, why would it actively launch an attack?"
Just when Jing Cangming was at a loss, he had unknowingly arrived in front of the gate hundreds of meters away.
Just when Jing Cangming was considering how to push open the door, something unexpected happened.
A buzzing sound was heard, and the door seemed to be moved by something, and then a gap slowly opened.
This gap is naturally very small for such a large door, but for Jing Cangming, it is enough.
As the door opened a crack, a shining light immediately came out from the crack.
This vastness seemed to have a suction force. After shining on Jing Cangming, Jing Cangming was sucked in!
"Ah!!!" Accompanied by a roar of fear of the unknown, Jing Cangming was pulled into the palace by Guangmang.
Then the door made a buzzing sound again and slowly closed.
At this time, Lu Yun's mountain turtle and the eight-legged knife octopus also stabilized their bodies and rushed towards the gate.
But their purposes are different.
Lu Yun carried the mountain turtle for the treasures in the palace, and the eight-legged octopus wanted to eat Jing Cangming.
But this time the two of them arrived at the gate smoothly. I don’t know if it was because of Jing Cangming’s entry that the waves disappeared.
A war beast and a ferocious beast kept hitting the gate, trying to break it open.
Boom~!!! Boom~!!! Boom~!!! Boom~!!! The two beasts tried their best to ram into the door, but the door didn’t move at all.
This time, both beasts gathered their strength, trying to use their full strength to create a gap for themselves to pass through.
They were getting farther and farther away from the gate, and then began to accumulate strength, preparing for the fourth impact.
But just when it was about to hit the gate, countless spikes suddenly appeared on the gate. The spikes were tens of meters long and looked like armor on the gate.
Puff!!! Puff!!! With two sounds, Lu Yun's mountain-carrying turtle and the eight-legged knife octopus all crashed into the spikes because they did not react in time, accumulated too much power, and were too close.
Whether it is the soft octopus god or the hard turtle shell.
Without exception, all of them were pierced, and blood instantly flowed into the sea water, floating upwards continuously.
Both sides were still struggling to get rid of the spikes.
Squeak! Squeak! A second wave of spikes emerged from the door, completely pinning the two beasts to the gate.
After confirming that the two beasts were dead, the spikes slowly disappeared, but what was puzzling was that after the spikes disappeared, the two huge corpses also disappeared.
