Chapter 872: Both Beast Form and First Wife
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When the sea rabbit saw Yu Huang and the others staring at it with unfriendly gazes, it was so frightened that it lowered its ears and covered its eyes with its ears.
“Forget it, let it go,” Yu Huang told Beatrice. “Beatrice, tell the sea rabbit to find its clansmen to help find Sheng Xiao, then come here and report his whereabouts.”
“Okay.”
After letting the sea rabbit go, Yu Huang and the others dived into the deep sea.
Just as the sea rabbit had said, at the bottom of the deep sea, sunlight couldn’t shine in at all. This place was pitch-black and without light. The seawater was bone-chilling, and the pressure was extremely terrifying. If Yu Huang and the others didn’t have a protective shield to protect their bodies, they wouldn’t have lasted for more than two minutes before their bodies exploded and died.
At this depth, the figures of the sea rabbits and ordinary sea beasts could no longer be seen. The sea beasts that could live at this depth were all super sea beasts from the ancient era.
Yu Huang and the others continued to dive. When they reached a depth of more than seven thousand meters under the sea, they had the feeling that it was difficult to move even a single inch. The protective shield used to protect them was also getting smaller and thinner.
Feng Yuncheng was the first to stop. He frowned and said, “I’ve reached my limit. If I continue to dive, my protective shield will break.”
Feng Yuncheng didn’t have the cultivation level of a Supreme Master yet. Being able to dive to this depth was already his limit.
At the same time, Yin Rong said, “I’m also almost at my limit.”
Beatrice saw that Feng Yuncheng’s face was slightly pale. The protective shield around his body only looked like a thin layer and could lose its effect anytime. She hesitated for a moment before saying to Yu Huang and the others, “You guys can continue diving. I won’t go.”
Feng Yuncheng’s eyes widened when he heard this. “Your Highness!” Feng Yuncheng hurriedly shook his head and said anxiously, “Your Highness, it’s very likely that there will be opportunities for you in the ancient merman tombstone. You can’t give up halfway.”
But Beatrice said, “I’m worried about you staying here alone.”
Feng Yuncheng was extremely touched.
However, it was bad enough that he couldn’t help Beatrice. He would never allow himself to drag Beatrice down. Feng Yuncheng said, “Your Highness, you have to go. Yin Rong and I will return to the land directly. We will wait for you on the land.”
Yin Rong nodded as well and said, “That’s right. Let’s go back the way we came.”
Xiao Shu laughed and said to Beatrice, “Beatrice, continue to dive with Yu Huang and the others. I’ll stay here.”
Seeing that Xiao Shu was willing to stay, Yu Huang asked Xiao Shu, “No one knows what’s in the tombstone of the ancient merman. Perhaps your golden opportunity is also hidden there. Are you really not going?”
Xiao Shu glanced at Yin Rong and shook his head calmly. “I’m not going. Opportunities are indeed important, but I’ve already found the most important thing in my life.” Xiao Shu held Yin Rong’s hand and said to Yu Huang and the others, “Go. I’ll stay behind to accompany Rong’er and Yuncheng. If your lives are in danger, send a signal flare to call me.”
Yu Huang also felt that there was a high chance that Beatrice’s golden opportunity was hidden in the ancient merman’s tomb. Letting Xiao Shu stay and letting Beatrice go to the ancient merman’s burial ground was indeed the best way.
Yu Huang immediately made a decision. “Alright, then wait for us here.”
Yu Huang, Donor, and the others checked the high-pressure and powerful signal flares they carried with them. Seeing that the signal flares could still be used, they continued to dive into the deep sea.
Beatrice gave Feng Yuncheng a deep look before chasing after Yu Huang and the others without looking back.
They continued to dive for more than half a day.
At this depth, there were no longer any marine creatures in the sea. The Night-Luminescent Pearl in Yu Huang’s hand was unable to emit light in the sea.
The five of them held hands and continued to set off towards the pitch-black deep sea.
Suddenly, Yu Huang realized that the seawater had disappeared and turned into a droplet-shaped fog. They continued to sink deeper into this fog.
“Look!” Estelle suddenly exclaimed.
Yu Huang and the others opened their eyes curiously and discovered that they were actually floating in a black cloud!
Where was the sea?
Weren’t they at the bottom of the sea?
Sensing that they were still falling, the five of them subconsciously held each other’s hands tightly.
Swish! Swish!
They passed through the black clouds and saw an infinitely wide land! It was an endless grassland filled with dark green grass.
Before Yu Huang and the others could process all of this, they quickly fell to the land below.
“Ah!”
The five of them screamed and landed on the soft grass. Then, they helped each other up. When they looked up, they found the corpses of a few giant sea beasts lying on the plain in front of them.
Presumably, these corpses were pitiful sea beasts that had fallen from the bottom of the sea and died here tragically.
Yu Huang raised her head and looked up. Only then did she realize that there were no white clouds or blue sky here. There was only an incomparably huge black eye of the storm.
Behind the eye of the storm, there was the isolated sea of the Kunlun Mystic Realm.
Who would have thought that under the isolated sea of the Kunlun Mystic Realm, there was actually a piece of land!
When Yu Huang thought of what the sea rabbit had said to Beatrice, she said in a low voice, “The sea rabbit and all the sea beasts are all aquatic demon beasts. If they leave the water, they will dry up and die. Although there is oxygen on land, there is no seawater. This is indeed hell for the sea rabbit and the others.”
Donor quickly walked in front of the pile of sea beast bones. He could sense the despair and pain of these sea beasts before they died.
Donor shook his head and sighed. “I really didn’t expect the Kunlun Divine Master to build a land at the bottom of the sea just to bury his beast form merman.”
Beatrice was still shocked. She said, “Who would expect that there’s actually a piece of land hidden at the bottom of the sea? Probably no one had discovered that Kunlun Divine Master buried his beast form merman here.”
Yu Huang flew up and relying on her Purifying Spirit Master vision, she saw a tall and beautiful merman statue in the distance.
The statue was lifelike and Yu Huang could clearly see the shape of every scale on the merman’s body. She noticed a line of words written below the statue.
However, Yu Huang couldn’t understand the writing since it was from the ancient era.
Yu Huang returned to the ground and used her sword to write the words on the ground. Then, she asked Donor and the others, “Who among you recognizes these words?”
Estelle and Kunlun shook their heads immediately.
Neither of them could read.
Beatrice and Donor only glanced at the words before saying at the same time, “These are ancient words.”
Yu Huang’s eyes instantly lit up. “What’s written?”
Beatrice pointed at the second word and said, “I know this word. It’s ‘wife’.”
Donor stared at the last word and said, “I only recognize this word. This word is ‘Spirit’.”
The three of them stared at the line of words and looked at each other. They blurted out at the same time, “My wife’s ‘Spirit’!”
Yu Huang suddenly raised her head and looked into the distance as she said in shock, “Not only was the ancient merman the beast form of the Kunlun Divine Master, but also his wife!”
