“When the sea rabbits saw me as a merman, they mistook me for that ancient merman. They thought that I had revived and that the Kunlun Divine Master had also revived, so they were in a hurry to escape?”

Yu Huang nodded and replied, “That’s right.”

She turned to look at the vast sea in the distance and made a bold guess. “If I’m not wrong, the place where the ancient merman died is in this isolated sea.”

Thinking of the invisible but majestic special energy in the isolated sea and the power of the Divine Master that appeared on the surface of the sea that night, Yu Huang suppressed the shock in her heart and said, “It’s very likely that the Kunlun Divine Master’s burial ground is also in this sea.”

Everyone was stunned.

“Is that… possible?”

Yu Huang smiled faintly and said, “We’ll know after we catch a few sea rabbits and interrogate them.”

Yu Huang turned her head to look towards the west of the continent and said, “With our current strength, we can’t defeat that male Winged Fish at all. Why don’t we take this opportunity to take a trip to the bottom of the sea? Perhaps we can gain something else.”

At this point, Yu Huang looked at Beatrice meaningfully.

Beatrice noticed Yu Huang’s gaze and her heart raced. “What are you thinking about?”

Yu Huang smiled mysteriously and said, “There must be some treasures where the ancient merman died. You’re a merman and can be considered a relative of the ancient merman. Perhaps there will be opportunities for you there.”

Beatrice’s heart raced.

The few of them were all people of action, so they took action immediately. After resting for a while, they plunged into the sea and worked together to capture six to seven sea rabbits.

Everyone tied up the sea rabbits and threw them ashore.

Yu Huang said, “Let’s interrogate them separately. If they dare to lie… Heh.”

Beatrice sent a sound wave to convey Yu Huang’s meaning to them.

After the sea rabbits understood what Beatrice meant, they all became obedient. Then, Beatrice interrogated them one by one.

As a major general of the Divine Moon Empire, Beatrice was very good at interrogating prisoners, so interrogating these sea rabbits was easy for her.

Under Beatrice’s interrogation, these sea rabbits didn’t dare to lie. They told her the truth.

After Beatrice confirmed that they weren’t lying, she sorted out the information they had conveyed before telling her companions the truth—

“They said that there’s an incomparably huge stone tablet in the deep sea. Under the stone tablet, there’s the tombstone of an ancient merman. The person who made the stone tablet was the true master of this world.”

“They also said that after the master erected the tablet for that ancient merman, he died beside the tablet. They also said…”

Beatrice frowned slightly and said with some pity, “After the master died, a few demon beasts ate his head and limbs, while the sea rabbits ate the other parts…”

Yu Huang was stunned and said sympathetically, “So, after the Kunlun Divine Master died, his corpse was dismembered?”

“… Yes.”

Yu Huang, Donor, and the others had once seen the divine appearance of the Kunlun Divine Master in Mo Jing’s hallucination. How mighty was he?

When they thought about how such a powerful figure had actually been eaten by the demon beasts after his death, they couldn’t help but lament the tragic ending of the hero.

Donor suddenly asked Beatrice, “So, the ancient merman’s burial ground is in the deep sea?”

“Yes.” Beatrice nodded.

Donor looked at Yu Huang again and said, “We have no way to go to the deep sea. There’s an energy isolation barrier there.”

Yu Huang looked at Kunlun. “Kunlun, do you have a way?”

Kunlun had yet to recover from hearing about his tragic ending in his previous life. When he suddenly heard Yu Huang’s question, Kunlun immediately shook his head in confusion and said, “I don’t know.”

At this moment, Beatrice continued, “That group of sea rabbits also said that in the Kunlun Mystic Realm, no demon beasts are able to cross the isolated sea, except for one type of demon beast.”

Yu Huang suddenly said, “A demon beast that has obtained the remains of the Kunlun Divine Master, or a demon beast with the bloodline of such a demon beast flowing in its body.”

For example, those Black Shark Birds.

Their ancestors must have eaten Kunlun’s body before, so they, who had thin bloodline energy in their bodies, could fly across the isolated sea and head to other continents.

Back then, Kunlun had awakened his divine sense under Yu Huang’s influence. It represented that the reincarnation of the Kunlun Divine Master had begun to awaken. Therefore, when Kunlun awakened his divine sense, the energy of the Black Shark Birds was naturally weakened.

Therefore, the Black Shark Birds could no longer pass through the isolated sea.

The ancestors of the sea rabbits could freely enter and exit the isolated sea because they had eaten the bones of the Kunlun Divine Master.

Beatrice nodded at Yu Huang. “That’s right. Demon beasts with the remains of the Kunlun Divine Master and their descendants can travel freely in the Kunlun Mystic Realm.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Kunlun.

Kunlun also knew what they were thinking.

Kunlun said, “I have the skull of the Kunlun Divine Master, so I can move freely through the isolated sea.” Kunlun suddenly said to Yu Huang, “Yu Huang, give me that rib.”

Yu Huang took out the wooden box and handed it to Kunlun.

After Kunlun opened the wooden box and took out the rib, he hesitated for a moment before breaking it.

“Kunlun!” Everyone was shocked. “What are you doing?!”

Kunlun smiled at them and quickly broke the rib into eight pieces.

Kunlun stared at the shattered ribs in his palm and said, “Everyone experienced these hardships to help me collect bones. If giving up one of my ribs can help everyone enter and exit the isolated sea freely and search for new opportunities, then I’m willing to give it up.”

“The human body has a total of 206 bones, but I’m willing to be a person with only 205 bones. I feel very honored to place my ribs in your bodies.”

At this point, Kunlun looked at Xiao Shu deeply and said, “You’re a demon beast, but you’re also our friend.”

Kunlun solemnly placed the first shattered rib in Xiao Shu’s palm and said, “Although Kunlun Divine Master mainly cultivates the Dao of Slaughter, he isn’t a person who likes to kill. He is a person who values friendship. From the moment you decided to choose to be with your lover and friend and give up on becoming a Divine Master, you moved me.”

“Therefore, I’ve decided to give you a Divine Master bone.” Kunlun smiled at Xiao Shu and said, “You’re worth it.”

After refining this Divine Master bone fragment, Xiao Shu would be able to possess a little bit of Divine Master power. Xiao Shu stared at the light Divine Master bone in his palm. What he had never dared to dream of in ten thousand years was actually lying in his palm.

After he decided to give up on becoming a Divine Master, he obtained a chance to become a Divine Master.
