Chapter 168: The Battle on the Seabed

Ancient, profound.

This was the feeling this Bronze Gate gave Lin Chao.

Even now, with strength no weaker than a True Immortal, Lin Chao still felt his own insignificance when facing this gate.

"Inside this gate..."

Lin Chao furrowed his brows.

His Divine Soul probed over, immediately sensing a burst of tyrannical aura.

It was as if a peerless ferocious beast were hidden behind this gate.

"This world is indeed deeper than I imagined."

Lin Chao looked at this bronze gate, his eyes full of wariness.

He did not probe further.

This Bronze Gate was clearly extraordinary, and it seemed to contain great terror within.

Lin Chao was certain that once it was opened, great terror would surely occur.

Lin Chao looked at the bronze gate, his finger pressing forward.

Indeed, just as he had expected, a finger capable of pressing down a great mountain left no trace on the Bronze Gate.

Even the rust-spotted copper flakes, which looked like they would fall off with a gust of wind, did not move at all.

Clearly, Lin Chao's current strength was simply unable to shake this Bronze Gate.

If there were a terrifying existence within the Bronze Gate, Lin Chao likely could not handle it with his current strength.

Lin Chao furrowed his brows.

"Seal."

He immediately cast a Daoist Method.

Suddenly, an illusory Formation appeared around the entire Bronze Gate.

The energy level of the Bronze Gate was very high; naturally, this Formation could not Improm it.

The only purpose of the Formation was to isolate the Bronze Gate so that no one else could come into contact with it.

Soon, the Formation took shape.

This Formation was not powerful enough, but in this world, no one was yet able to break it.

Lin Chao withdrew his gaze, and the Ice Coffin also floated before him.

He took one deep look at the Bronze Gate, and his figure vanished.

Half a quarter of an hour later, beneath the iceberg, the rust-spotted bronze gate suddenly began to tremble.

On the bronze gate, copper flakes fell off continuously, and a gap appeared for an instant before closing again.

At this moment, a blood-red shadow escaped from the Bronze Gate and vanished without a trace.

This blood-red shadow was very small, about the size of an egg, entirely blood-red, and possessed a tyrannical aura.

This blood shadow, having escaped from the Bronze Gate, seemed very joyful, carrying an air of excitement.

It flew continuously in the Extreme North, seemingly searching for something.

A quarter of an hour later, suddenly, the blood shadow stopped flying; if anyone were there, they could clearly perceive an expression of joy on this figure.

The blood shadow plunged fiercely into the deep sea.

After a few minutes, the blood shadow reached the seabed.

In the depths of the sea, there was no light, pitch black.

Deep within it, a small fragment of bone lay quietly on the seabed.

It was as white and lustrous as jade, also carrying a trace of tyrannical aura, seemingly of the same origin as the blood shadow.

It was as if the blood shadow would become stronger once it devoured this small fragment of bone.

The blood shadow did not hesitate at all, swooshing toward that bone fragment.

However, just at this moment, a palm appeared and grasped the bone fragment in its hand.

The person who arrived was none other than Lin Chao.

He held the bone fragment, his eyes filled with curiosity and gravity.

The Formation he had left on the Bronze Gate back then did not just hide the Bronze Gate; it also carried a trace of surveillance, specifically to avoid accidents.

As it turned out, he hadn't expected to actually encounter one.

He didn't even know if it was a coincidence or something else.

He had just seen the Bronze Gate, and not long after, something had come out from inside.

At this time, the blood shadow was stunned and immediately became tyrannical.

It seemed to have intelligence, charging toward Lin Chao.

Lin Chao could feel the undisguised killing intent.

In fact, when he was secretly following behind this blood shadow, Lin Chao had already sensed the aura of slaughter contained within it.

"Condense."

Lin Chao immediately cast a Daoist Method.

Suddenly, the seawater around him was Improm-ed at this moment.

Space and time also seemed to be Improm-ed.

However, the blood shadow felt no fear at all, even displaying an expression of disdain, if it had a face.

At this moment, a cold voice arrived: "A mere Pseudo-Immortal dares to stop me."

That was a conscious sound transmission.

Lin Chao remained calm; since he had taken action, he had certainly made full preparations.

With a status of 1, he is comparable to a Pseudo-Immortal.

However, he possesses the Dragon Bloodline, and his strength is equivalent to a True Immortal.

Yet, this mass of blood shadow gives Lin Chao the feeling of having only just stepped into the True Spirit realm.

This kind of strength is very powerful, enough to wreak havoc on the world.

But, in front of Lin Chao, it is not enough to be worth looking at.

Of course, Lin Chao also knows that what he can suppress is merely this mass of blood shadow.

As for the master behind this mass of blood shadow, he is simply no match for them.

It is very obvious that the master of the blood shadow is trapped inside the Bronze Gate.

What has come out now is merely this mass of blood shadow.

The blood shadow rushed toward Lin Chao, and immediately, an endless aura of slaughter arrived.

Lin Chao felt that he was not facing a mass of blood shadow the size of an egg, but rather, it was as if he were facing a ten-thousand-foot-tall ferocious beast.

"Dragon Absorption Method!"

Lin Chao did not have any hesitation.

Even though this mass of blood shadow was far weaker than him, he still employed powerful means, not giving the blood shadow any chance.

The Dragon Absorption Method is not only a method for dragon consumption, but also a means to deal with enemies.

In an instant, the blood shadow seemed as if it had seen something terrifying.

"Dragon..."

However, that was only consciousness, not a sound, so Lin Chao naturally did not know.

As the Dragon Absorption Method was unleashed, the blood shadow was like a chick encountering a hawk, without any ability to resist.

Or rather, the blood shadow was already scared silly.

Lin Chao instantly devoured this mass of blood shadow; as the Dragon Absorption Method circulated, that mass of blood shadow had no ability to resist at all, completely dissolving and being absorbed by Lin Chao.

"The taste is not bad... a bit like spicy duck blood soup?"

Lin Chao was slightly stunned.

The blood shadow was completely devoured by him, and Lin Chao actually felt the taste was exceptionally delicious, even wanting to eat another piece.

His gaze pierced through the ocean and icebergs, seemingly seeing the Bronze Gate.

He withdrew his gaze.

He was not yet foolish enough to release the terrifying existence inside the Bronze Gate just because he felt it tasted good.

He looked at that piece of bone, his gaze strange: "What kind of bone is this, exactly?"

Lin Chao fell into deep thought.

But immediately, he revealed a thoughtful expression.

"When I attacked just now, it seems I affected a big fellow in the seabed."

When he attacked earlier, he felt a sense of being watched.

He instantly took a look.

Of course, it was just an Ordinary look, but it still carried immense pressure.

At this moment, Lin Chao's gaze pierced through several thousand meters of the seabed and saw a... steel big fellow.

An unmanned nuclear submarine.

However, at this moment, this submarine was already destroyed, the steel plates on it were dented beyond recognition, and it had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

"This design... a submarine from Li Zhu Country?"

Li Zhu Country is one of the three great powers in the world today.

The people of this country all have white skin and are in a competitive and hostile relationship with Great Xia Country.

Officials of Li Zhu Country often like to bring up Great Xia Country when conducting elections.

"It's fine."

Since it is an unmanned nuclear submarine from Li Zhu Country, then if it is broken, so be it.

Lin Chao's figure instantly vanished.
