Chapter 450: Bi Bo Pool, Ben Bo Er Ba

After the Tai Yin Star Lord left, Su Chen left the East Sea and crossed space to arrive at the Bi Bo Pool on Luan Shi Mountain in the Ji Sai Kingdom of Xi Niuhe Zhou.

Undercurrents surged at the bottom of the water, and clusters of coral emitted a ghostly green light, illuminating the swaying water plants around.

Su Chen concealed his aura and stood behind a reef at the bottom of the pool; his trip this time was to find the Friend Jiutou Insect.

The Friend Jiutou Insect had received guidance from Bai Ze and was lurking in the Bi Bo Pool, waiting for an opportunity.

Su Chen wanted to go to Demon Emperor Island, and he still needed the Friend Jiutou Insect to lead the way and open the great formation that concealed Demon Emperor Island.

But he did not want to expose the Friend Jiutou Insect's identity because of this, so he scanned the outer water area with his spiritual sense and locked onto a patrolling shrimp soldier who was dozing off.

Su Chen flashed, trapped the shrimp soldier with Hunyuan magic power, stored him in a magic treasure, and simultaneously performed the transformation technique, shaking his body to transform into the appearance of that shrimp soldier, holding a rusted iron spear, and walked out from behind the reef in a grand manner, mixing into the patrol team.

Outside the water mansion, several teams of small demons shuttled back and forth. Su Chen, carrying the iron spear, had just walked past a white jade archway when two figures blocked his path.

On the left was a catfish monster with two long whiskers hanging by its mouth, tossing a water spirit stone in its hand; on the right was a black fish spirit with a bald black head, with a broken copper knife tucked into its waist.

Both held a bone club in their hands, blocking Su Chen's path in a swaggering manner.

"Stop." The catfish monster tapped Su Chen's iron spear with its bone club, "New here? Which team? Why did you leave the patrol team? Do you understand the rules?"

Su Chen stopped his steps and sized the two up.

These two had not yet entered the Immortal Dao, their internal demon power was messy and unbearable, and they hadn't even fully transformed, still sporting fish heads.

"Greetings, my lords, I am from the third patrol team and accidentally fell behind." The shrimp soldier Su Chen had transformed into said.

The black fish spirit stepped forward, circling Su Chen, shaking its head. "Patrol team? No wonder you're so ignorant. Why didn't you salute when you saw us brothers?"

Su Chen raised his brows, suppressing the impatience in his heart.

"I just arrived and don't know the identities of the two lords."

The catfish monster puffed out its chest, its two long whiskers shaking triumphantly.

"Prick up your shrimp ears and listen well. I am Ben Bo Er Ba, and this is my brother Ba Bo Er Ben."

"We brothers are the favorites in front of the Wan Sheng Long Wang and the absolute trusted aides of the Friend Jiutou Son-in-law. In this Bi Bo Pool, who doesn't give us some face? You little demon, you don't even recognize us; how will you survive in the Long Gong in the future?"

Ba Bo Er Ben took up the conversation, pointing his bone club at Su Chen's nose and spitting out a water bubble.

"You little shrimp, you look unfamiliar, and your brain isn't sharp either. Today, count yourself lucky to have met us brothers to guide you."

"Go, wash those seahorses in the backyard clean. If you do a good job, we will put in a good word for you in front of the Son-in-law, so you can leave the patrol team."

Su Chen was speechless in his heart; it turned out they were two clowns, so he prepared to tease these two treasures a little.

Su Chen did not speak, his fingertips moved slightly, and a strand of Hunyuan magic power split off, silently entering the bodies of the two demons.

Ben Bo Er Ba was just about to continue bragging when his body suddenly stiffened, discovering he couldn't move; Ba Bo Er Ben beside him also opened his mouth wide, unable to make a sound.

Su Chen's divine sense stirred, performing a simple illusion.

In the vision of the two demons, the shrimp soldier before them suddenly expanded in size, transforming into a terrifying demon god with his head touching the firmament and his feet stepping on the Netherworld.

The demon god was surrounded by an aura of destruction, a pair of eyes revealing endless killing intent, coldly looking down at them.

The demon god stretched out a giant hand, directly peeling their skin and pulling their tendons, throwing them into an oil pan.

Fear instantly destroyed the psychological defenses of the two demons; Su Chen withdrew the magic power suppression.

"Plop."

Ben Bo Er Ba and Ba Bo Er Ben fell to their knees at the same time, tears and snot streaming wildly.

"Spare us, Great King!" Ben Bo Er Ba kowtowed like a pestle, his head banging against the seabed rocks with a thudding sound. "This little demon had eyes but didn't see, offending the Great King; please let us go like a fart!"

Ba Bo Er Ben cried even more miserably, hugging Su Chen's thigh.

"Great King, my meat is sour and doesn't taste good. Those seahorses in the backyard are fat and delicious; go eat the seahorses!"

Su Chen kicked Ba Bo Er Ben away, just about to cast a spell to erase this memory from the two demons.

"What's all the noise?"

A cold shout came from behind the archway.

The water rippled, and a man draped in silver armor, holding a crescent shovel, walked over with large strides.

The man's face was gloomy, his eyes sharp; it was the Friend Jiutou Insect.

The Friend Jiutou Insect was patrolling the water mansion and heard the ghostly wailing and wolf howling of Ben Bo Er Ba and Ba Bo Er Ben from far away.

He walked closer and saw that these two treasures were kowtowing and begging for mercy from an ordinary shrimp soldier, crying with tears and snot mixed together, and immediately felt he had lost face.

"You two idiots, what kind of madness are you acting out?" The Friend Jiutou Insect scolded, his crescent shovel pausing, shaking the seabed water flow.

Ben Bo Er Ba saw the Friend Jiutou Insect as if seeing a savior, rolling and crawling over.

"Save us, Son-in-law! This shrimp soldier is a monster! He wants to eat us!"

The Friend Jiutou Insect frowned, his gaze turning to Su Chen.

He scanned with his divine sense and found that the shrimp soldier before him had a plain aura, no abnormalities, and even his magic power fluctuations were extremely weak.

But Ben Bo Er Ba and the other would never be scared like this for no reason.

The Friend Jiutou Insect was cautious by nature, gripping the crescent shovel tightly, Jin Xian magic power secretly circulating in his body, preparing to act to test the shrimp soldier's background.

Just as he was about to act, a familiar voice sounded in his mind.

"It's me, Su Chen."

The Friend Jiutou Insect's body shook violently, his hand holding the crescent shovel freezing in mid-air.

The Friend Jiutou Insect looked at Su Chen, his eyes full of doubt.

How could Su Chen come to Bi Bo Pool?

However, the Friend Jiutou Insect reacted extremely quickly, immediately putting away the crescent shovel and coldly sweeping a glance at Ben Bo Er Ba and Ba Bo Er Ben.

"Two idiots, where did the monster come from? Get lost."

The two demons were like receiving an amnesty, rolling and crawling as they fled toward the depths of the water mansion, not even daring to look back.

Once there were no other small demons around, the Friend Jiutou Insect's expression became respectful, and he transmitted his voice: "Lord Su Chen, why have you come?"

"Find a quiet place to talk." Su Chen replied via voice transmission.

The Friend Jiutou Insect nodded, turning to lead the way in front.

The two passed through several remote waterways and arrived at an abandoned coral cave mansion.

The Friend Jiutou Insect cast several spells to seal the aura of the cave mansion.

Su Chen lifted the transformation technique, restoring his original appearance; he did not waste words, going straight to the point.

"Take me to Demon Emperor Island; I want to see Senior Bai Ze."

The Friend Jiutou Insect was somewhat puzzled upon hearing this; didn't Senior Bai Ze leave Demon Emperor Island with Su Chen? Why go to Demon Emperor Island to find him?

"Senior Bai Ze returned to Demon Emperor Island a few years ago." Su Chen explained when he saw his doubt.

"My Lord, is it because of the outer realm matter that has been spreading in the Three Realms recently?" The Friend Jiutou Insect asked tentatively.

Su Chen glanced at him. "Don't ask what you shouldn't; you just need to lead the way. This matter concerns the future of the Demon Clan and cannot be delayed."

The Friend Jiutou Insect's heart tightened, and he immediately lowered his head. "Understood. My Lord, please wait a moment; your subordinate must first go to ask for leave from the Wan Sheng Long Wang."

The Friend Jiutou Insect left the coral cave mansion and went straight to the main hall of the Long Gong.

The Wan Sheng Long Wang was playing with a night-luminescent pearl in the hall; seeing the Friend Jiutou Insect enter, he greeted him with a smile.

"Son-in-law, why are you in such a hurry?"

The Friend Jiutou Insect bowed in salute.

"Father-in-law, my family sent an urgent message; there are some private matters that need to be handled. I am here specifically to ask for leave from you."

The Wan Sheng Long Wang put down the night-luminescent pearl and stroked his dragon whiskers.

The Friend Jiutou Insect was powerful and had a mysterious background; the Wan Sheng Long Wang had always relied heavily on him.

"Since it is an urgent family matter, you should go back. Go, go early and return early; if there is anything that requires the Bi Bo Pool to exert effort, just speak up."

"Thank you, Father-in-law." The Friend Jiutou Insect did not stay long, turning to leave the Long Gong.

The Friend Jiutou Insect returned to the coral cave mansion, where Su Chen had been waiting for a long time.

"Let's go." Su Chen said.

Su Chen directly tore open a spatial rift on the seabed, and the two stepped into the rift, their figures disappearing at the bottom of the Bi Bo Pool.

Traveling through the void, light and shadow flowed around them.

Su Chen's Mid-Stage Great Luo Jin Xian cultivation, coupled with his powerful Mid-Stage Semi-Sage physical body, made him as steady as Mount Tai in the spatial passage.

The Friend Jiutou Insect was secretly shocked on the side; he did not expect that in just a few hundred years of not seeing him, Su Chen would already be able to travel across space.

A moment later, the two walked out of the spatial passage, and rich water vapor rushed toward them.

The boundless black sea surface was surging, waves crashing against the reefs, emitting a deafening roar.

This was already the depths of the North Sea.

The Friend Jiutou Insect took out a mysterious black token from his sleeve.

This was the token to enter Demon Emperor Island; he injected magic power into the token, preparing to open the guiding formation.

The token emitted a faint light, but the sea surface ahead had no reaction.

The Friend Jiutou Insect frowned, increasing his magic power output again.

The runes on the token lit up with a dazzling light, but the sea surface remained calm, and the passage that used to lead to Demon Emperor Island did not appear.

The Friend Jiutou Insect looked at the unresponsive token, his expression changing.

He had lived on Demon Emperor Island for tens of thousands of years and knew deeply what this situation meant.

"Lord Su Chen, a great change has occurred on the island. The great formation inside has changed, and my token cannot open the passage to enter the Demon Emperor."
