Killing God - Chapter 309
Chapter 309 Sea Demonic Beast
When the boundless sea water gushed over from all directions and finally drowned his head, after the waves that carried the unique aura of the sea completely immersed his body, Shen Shi discovered that he still had a lingering uneasiness towards this sea water. However, after all, he had tempered himself for so many years, and his mind was firm. He did not show any signs of panic. Instead, he continued to walk towards the seawater for a while.
Normally speaking, the most suitable place for most cultivators to display their Dao Cultivation Techniques was on land, including the sky, where some cultivators would perform well after their cultivation realms had increased or they had obtained flying spirit artifacts. However, the situation in the water was very different from the previous two. Once the seemingly weak current gathered into a river, it would greatly interfere with the movements of cultivators. There were quite a few divine abilities and spells that would be greatly reduced in the water, and it would even be difficult to execute. For most cultivators, the water was a place that they rarely dabbled in.
In the Primordial Chaos Master Realm, the Primordial Chaos Continent was vast and boundless. The vast western marshes of the Eastern Wilderness and the ten thousand li snow plains of the north were all heaven and earth that had been dangerous since ancient times. So far, no one had been able to explore them clearly, much less what their boundaries were. Apart from these three places, within the known world soil, the city of 90 provinces in the Primordial Chaos Continent was vast enough, but the vast ocean in the south of the continent was even larger.
There were countless living beings in the vast world, and there were countless flourishing species on land. The ocean was larger than the land, and there were also countless strange aquatic creatures. There were even many precious and rare spirit materials, such as heavenly materials, earth, baby stones, ore veins, and so on. The sea was also abundant. It could be said that Canghai was actually a natural treasure vault that contained countless treasures.
But for thousands of years, The human cultivation world always focused on the Primordial Chaos Continent, Very little is said about exploring the Vast Sea, There would even be more explorations of the three heavenly perilous places in the east, west, and north than in the sea, The reason for that was because the boundless deep sea was too restrictive for human cultivators. In addition, there were many ferocious demonic beasts in the sea, and they were born with the advantage of water. Low-grade demonic beasts that were not worth mentioning on land would become difficult opponents when they reached about the same level as humans in the sea. If you are unlucky enough to encounter a sea-level high-tier demonic beast, then it would be almost a dead end. Because in the sea, it would even be very difficult for you to escape.
Of course, things weren’t absolute. Although most cultivators were afraid of the sea, a small number of them were skilled in water. However, because these people were too rare, and most of them were rogue cultivators with low cultivation, they wouldn’t be able to exert any influence. Compared to the many great sects on the Primordial Chaos Continent, Lingxiao Sect had a deeper understanding of the sea than the other sects because the Jinhong Mountain where the Spirit Veins of the Mountain Gates were located was located thousands of kilometers away. However, in general, the various Dao Arts cultivated by the human race were mainly focused on land battles, and Lingxiao Sect was no exception.
Shen Shi had been in Lingxiao Sect for a few years. However, from the beginning until now, he had never seen any martial arts divine abilities suitable for moving in the water. However, as a cultivator who was far superior to mortals, he was not familiar with water. It was not a big deal to casually walk in the sea near the seaside and hold his breath and dive for a while.
Walking into the sea water, his eyes darkened. Shen Shi felt that the surroundings around him were slightly cold. However, after he paused for a moment, the light in front of him seemed to light up a little. The faint sunlight turned into beams of light that refracted from the sea surface into the seabed water. In front of him, it revealed a brand-new underwater world.
As this sea area was known, the crystal clear water was filled with corals, all kinds of strange shapes. Some were like a big fan, some were like a palm, some were as flat as a millstone, and some were tangled like vines. The color was similarly colorful, red, orange, blue, green, white, grey, cyan, and purple, each flashing with a strange light in the swaying waves. Thousands of brightly colored fish gathered in groups, wandering around the coral reef, swimming around, leisurely and leisurely.
Shen Shi stood still. He raised his head and looked up. He saw that he was about three feet away from the surface of the water above his head. It was a bit strenuous to walk with his breath held. After pondering for a moment, he calmed down and activated a surge of spiritual energy in the Qi Sea Pill Field to start circulating the “Water Rejection Technique” Elder Pu had privately taught him.
He was originally different from the others in the Five Elements Technique. In addition, he had been practicing this technique frequently during the past few days. Therefore, in just a short breath, the Water Rejection Technique was successfully used. An invisible and colorless force slowly bounced from his skin, quietly separating the surrounding seawater by a finger.
Once the water-repelling spell was cast, Shen Shi immediately felt that Zhou Yusong was relieved. The faint pressure of the seawater from all directions had dissipated along with it, and even his movements were much more relaxed. He tried to take a few steps forward in the seawater. He soon discovered that the seawater still had some influence on him. Normally, walking was similar to walking on land, but he still couldn’t do it if he wanted to run on the seabed. However, it was still much better than the helpless predicament when he first entered the water. Most importantly, he found that he no longer had to hold his breath under the water repellency technique.
After walking forward for a while, Shen Shi felt that he was almost used to it. He didn’t rush to the middle level of the Coral Sea. Instead, he stopped and tried to mobilize his spiritual energy to activate the various techniques he knew. After all, there should be some troublesome sea demonic beasts in the middle level of the Coral Sea. It was unavoidable for him to fight.
Along the way, there were good and bad results. The downside was that Shen Shi was frustrated to discover that most of the spells he knew were actually unable to be used in this sea water. For example, if he wanted to cast a fireball spell, but before a ball of flame could take shape, it would be quickly submerged by the boundless sea water around him. Apart from that, what was even more troublesome was that talismans could not be used at the bottom of the sea. Almost all talismans needed to burn talisman paper to stimulate spiritual energy, but in this water … oh, they couldn’t be burned.
However, there was good news. Amongst all the spells, Shen Shi discovered that the Water element Water Arrow Technique could be used. Perhaps it was because the water energy in the sea water was endless. He could even cast the water arrow several times faster than on land. In the blink of an eye, he was able to condense a water arrow. Apart from that, all the Five Elements Spells were basically crippled. As for the four spells he had learned in the Demon Realm, Shen Shi was surprised to discover that they could actually be used in water.
Basically, Shen Shi felt that his abilities had been crippled by seventy to eighty percent after coming to this underwater area. It was no wonder that few people were willing to explore this vast sea of adventures because the restrictions on human cultivators were so strong under the sea.
After figuring out his own situation and realizing that it wasn’t that he didn’t have the ability to protect himself, Shen Shi felt a little relieved. Then, he calmed down and began to move forward.
Before launching into the water, the words of a few Origin Core Realm elders had already been made clear to him. Hence, Shen Shi’s goal was also very clear. He did not distract himself from the colorful underwater world around him at this moment. Instead, he continued on his journey, searching for the location of the middle sea area.
The land of the underwater world had always been rugged, huge rock pits could be seen everywhere, and there were countless seemingly beautiful but incomparably hard coral reefs, so this path was not easy to walk. Fortunately, people were underwater. Sometimes, as long as Shen Shi borrowed a bit of strength, due to the buoyancy of the seawater, his entire body would slowly float over. It was also very interesting to use this as a way to overcome many obstacles.
After walking and stopping like this, they gradually went deeper into the sea. Occasionally, when they raised their heads, they would find that the sea above them had unknowingly reached a very deep distance. However, the seawater in this sea area was exceptionally clear. Even though it was several zhang below the water, Shen Shi could still clearly see the surrounding scenery.
A large yellow-shelled turtle over three feet long and thick-armored swam leisurely past Shen Shitou’s head with all four legs. It was not afraid of anyone at all. Shen Shi glanced at it and didn’t care. He was just a little anxious. He thought to himself that from the moment he entered the water until now, it would probably be 70 to 80 feet away. Why hadn’t he seen the shadow of the middle sea area yet?
After thinking for a while, he continued to walk forward, passing through the strange corals and pushing away the colorful fish that were swimming, and so he jumped up and down on the seabed more than twenty zhang away. Suddenly, in front of his eyes, The color of the seawater suddenly darkened, adding a trace of a dark blue color. A trench appeared not far away from him. The terrain in front of the seabed suddenly fell by more than ten feet. The further away, the deeper it looked. Under the illumination of the light above his head, the scenery on the seabed became somewhat blurry.
Shen Shi paused for a moment. then slowly walked to the edge of the trench, He looked down carefully for a moment, Beneath the trench, There are also numerous rocks and coral reefs, However, the color was much more monotonous than the sea area he had passed by before. His gaze was mostly focused on three deep colors: white, gray, and blue. Moreover, he could no longer see the colorful and beautiful fish shoals. Instead, he could see the faint shadows that appeared between the strange cracks in the rocks. It looked like a larger fish.
Shen Shi’s mind spun. He thought to himself that this place in front of him should be the middle-level sea area. As expected, it was very different from the upper-level sea area. Not only did it not have the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere in front of it, it revealed a faint sense of danger in a deep darkness. However, there was no reason for Shen Shi to retreat from the examination before his eyes. Thus, after taking a deep breath, he gently floated down the edge of the trench.
The buoyancy of the sea water cancelled out most of the rushing force, allowing Shen Shi to easily grab the rock on the wall of the trench with his hand and move downwards. The surrounding sea water looked very calm, but it didn’t seem to be any different from the upper sea area. It was only slightly dimmer, but it was still enough for him to clearly see the area around ten meters away.
However, just as he stepped onto the surface of the middle sea with one foot, Suddenly, he felt a stream of water suddenly pressing down from the originally calm sea water beside him. Shen Shi was suddenly shocked. He quickly turned around and saw a large gray-scaled fish suddenly springing out from a cave three feet away from him. It was about two feet long, full of sharp teeth and sharp teeth. It was precisely with an evil aura that it rushed towards him.
Shen Shi did not expect that he would encounter a demonic beast in the sea the moment he arrived here. He had never seen such a strange fish before, I can’t even name it, But there was clearly no time for him to hesitate, The instinct that he had tempered countless times in the past few years caused him to react almost instantly. He took a step back and waved his arm. In almost the blink of an eye, the vast sea of water seemed to rumble, and a sharp water arrow instantly condensed in his palm.
“Pu!”
A deep and strange muffled sound rang out in the water deep beneath the seabed. The water arrows that looked almost identical to the surrounding seawater shot out in an instant, breaking through the current and rushing towards the strange fish. A vortex instantly formed and rippled out. The endless sea water didn’t seem to have any obstruction to the water arrow, only a few strange water ripples appeared behind the water arrow.
The strange fish was about a foot away from Shen Shi’s body. Just as it was about to open its bloody mouth and bite down, its body suddenly trembled. The extremely sharp water arrow pierced through the water like a sharp arrow. It silently drilled into the head of the strange fish and directly pierced through a large hole.
The strange fish’s body immediately twisted and twisted, falling from the water to the seabed. After struggling for a few times on the sandy ground, it stiffly died. The wound on its head that was pierced by the water arrow floated out a ball of bloody strands, diffusing into the seawater.
Shen Shi took another step back. Looking at the strange fish’s corpse, his heart felt a little relieved. However, before he could truly breathe a sigh of relief, dozens of strange sounds suddenly sounded out from near to far around this sea area. There were shadowy figures appearing from the cracks in the rocks and the corals, and all the strange figures were actually looking towards Shen Shi.
Shen Shi’s heart trembled. Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something. He lowered his gaze and glanced at the bright red fish blood floating in the seawater.
