Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing and the others concealed their auras, following the flow of people in Lingwan City to the Gonggong Water Mansion.

The Water Spirit Root sensed the arrival of the main body and the others, and had already sent the outsiders away in advance.

Immediately afterward, the group entered a secret chamber equipped with soundproofing and concealment arrays through a hidden door.

Xu Zhangqing asked casually: "How is the situation here?"

Gonggong's gaze swept over Xu Zixiao and Xu Qiansui, then he replied: "Although Lingwan City is nominally controlled by the Long Family, there are also Merfolk Clan members and high-level cultivators stationed here."

But the demon race below, the original inhabitants of this place, have always been dissatisfied.

They often carry out ambushes on merchant caravans and such, but it's mostly small-scale skirmishes, temporarily unable to stir up any major waves."

Xu Zhangqing nodded slightly: "With an immortal sect backing them, the Long Family and Merfolk Clan can easily resolve any trouble they encounter."

At this moment, Gonggong took out a jade box: "These are talismans I drew in advance, there are many, one set per person."

Water Avoidance Talismans can isolate water pressure, Concealment Talismans can shield auras, and Thunder Control Talismans can resist the thunder might of Yaoguang Cave."

Tai Bai picked up a Thunder Control Talisman and glanced at it: "They are all top-grade talismans."

Gonggong smiled: "For the main body, naturally everything must be considered thoroughly."

Xu Zhangqing took a set of talismans, then said seriously: "Time waits for no one, let's set off."

Gonggong pointed to a water well at the other end of the secret chamber: "That is an underwater entrance; if we go from here, we can avoid the eyes of the Long Family and the demon race."

The crowd said no more, each putting away their talismans and jumping into the well one after another.

With the sounds of "plop" and "plop" ringing out in succession, they soon left Lingwan City.

Taking advantage of the water's cover, they departed silently and soon reached the outer perimeter of the harbor.

Xu Zhangqing no longer concealed himself and directly summoned the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat.

Instantly, a great ship a hundred zhang long lay before everyone.

At first glance, it seemed not like a ship, but rather a fortress at sea.

Having been confined for a long time, the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat was extremely excited after coming out.

With a shake of its body, thunder crackled all around it with a "zila la la" sound.

Fish and water demons in the nearby waters were all so frightened they trembled.

Xu Zhangqing shook his head helplessly: "Stop showing off, we're going to Yaoguang Cave."

Everyone boarded the ship one after another, and then, under Gonggong's guidance, the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat sped toward Yaoguang Cave, one of the Yaoguang Nine Domains and also the most mysterious one.

Don't look at it being a full hundred zhang long, but its speed is as fast as lightning.

In just a few flashes, it was already ten thousand meters away.

Along the way, they encountered many strange sights.

First, in waters dense with vortices, they encountered Three Whirlpools.

That is three vortices coming together, devouring everything around them.

Strangely, when the vortices spun, they actually emitted thunderous booms.

Pale blue spiritual light even illuminated the ship's body, flickering bright and dim; fortunately, nothing happened.

After a while longer, they encountered the more sinister Broken Mast Beach.

Broken ships, sails, and floating corpses could be seen everywhere here.

On the nearby reefs, countless fluorescent barnacles dwelled, flashing like stars at night.

Further back, they encountered Mist-filled Ming Water Bay.

The seawater here was pitch black like ink, and huge shadows moving on the seabed could be vaguely seen.

Gonggong explained: "Although Broken Mast Beach and Ming Water Bay are not well-known outside, they are very famous here."

It is said that some incredible things always appear here."

To this, the crowd was not nervous at all, but instead extremely excited.

Having finally come out for a trip, they had to see the world.

When the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat reached the depths of Ming Water Bay, the sea surface suddenly surged with huge waves, and dozens of sturdy fish demons burst out of the water.

Leading them was a black-scaled Thunder Fin Fish, over three zhang long, its body covered in black scales, its dorsal fin glowing with a dark purple luster.

This demon had a mouth full of sharp tusks, and a pair of copper-bell-sized eyes stared fixedly at the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat, then it roared: "Leave the treasures on the boat, and I'll spare your lives!"

This black-scaled Thunder Fin Fish was a native fish demon of Ming Water Bay, capable of drawing upon weak thunder power, very fast, and often robbed passing ships in groups year-round.

But facing the roar of the black-scaled Thunder Fin Fish, the people on the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat didn't even lift their eyelids.

Xu Zhangqing leaned against the ship's side, blowing in the sea breeze, enjoying the sea view.

Tai Bai held a smoke pipe in his mouth, puffing clouds and mist.

The female earth closed her eyes to cultivate her spirit.

Zhu Rong and Gonggong had no reaction at all.

Xu Zixiao and Xu Qiansui remained motionless, like sculptures.

Seeing this scene, the fish demons led by the black-scaled Thunder Fin Fish were initially very angry, but as the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat approached, their pupils fluctuated violently and their auras began to become chaotic.

Just as they were about to flee, their bodies became paralyzed, and they froze directly in place.

Immediately afterward, the huge body of the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat mercilessly rolled over them.

Pfft~

Pfft~

Pfft pfft~

In the blink of an eye, they all turned into a pool of mud.

……

……

As they continued forward, the boat arrived at an area full of giant coral reefs.

Gonggong introduced that this place was called Xuanjia Reef.

Inside lived a sea monster named Xuanjia Giant Ao.

Its strength was very great, its defense extremely high.

As expected, not long after, a violent impact came from the bottom of the boat.

Soon, a Xuanjia Giant Ao rose from the water.

The giant ao's back shell was over ten zhang long, its blue-black xuan shell covered in ravine-like patterns.

It had four thick ao feet, and a pair of giant pincers capable of crushing xuan iron.

A pair of blood-red vertical pupils glowed with ferocious light, now staring fixedly at the Thunder Dragon Water-Avoiding Boat and everyone aboard.

It was the overlord of Xuanjia Reef, feeding on past ships and cultivators, and would actively attack upon sensing the boat's fluctuations.

Tai Bai's eyes brightened: "Interesting, don't destroy this xuan shell, I have use for it."

Just as the Xuanjia Giant Ao's giant pincers were about to clamp down on the boat's bottom, Gonggong flickered and leaped into mid-air, forming hand seals as vast seawater suddenly condensed, transforming into dozens of thick water chains that wrapped around the giant ao's four limbs and giant pincers like spirit snakes.

The water chains tightened, a thin layer of ice forming on their surface, directly locking the Xuanjia Giant Ao firmly in place.

Although this giant ao had astonishing defense and overwhelming brute strength, before Gonggong it was like a giant beast trapped in a quagmire; no matter how it struggled, the water chains remained motionless, instead tightening further.

Not long after, deep grooves were gouged into the blue-black xuan shell, even emitting "creak creak" sounds.

At this moment, its blood-red vertical pupils were filled with rage and terror.

Xu Zhangqing said lightly: "Attack."

The words had not yet fallen before Xu Zixiao moved, swiftly drawing the wooden sword in hand, then unleashing a sword light condensed to substantiality.

The Xuanjia Giant Ao did not even see clearly, only feeling its neck grow cold, and that head said to be able to withstand a full strike from a Nascent Soul Cultivator was suddenly separated from its body.

With a "plop," the huge ao head fell into the sea, splashing waves several zhang high.

Fresh blood gushed from the severed neck, quickly dyeing this stretch of water red.

The headless ao body twitched a few times, then stopped moving.

Tai Bai flickered and landed beside the ao corpse, swiftly taking out a fist-sized ya dan glowing with blue-black spiritual light, then carefully stripping off the complete xuan shell.

Xu Zhangqing saw this in his eyes, and said thoughtfully: "Since this is its territory, its nest must be nearby!"
