Going out to sea at 3:35

  Shang Qing was originally waiting for Leng Hua to make a fool of herself. In her opinion, no matter how many vicious tricks Leng Hua had, after all, she only had the cultivation of Jie Xiang Jing, and if she entered the sea, she would definitely not be able to hold on. After all, she hadn't reached the level of a scattered immortal yet, and hadn't broken through the limitations of being human, so it was impossible for her to breathe underwater.

  It was just then that Qing entered the water, and her triumphant expression, ready to mock and vent her anger, suddenly froze. She looked at the jade symbol emitting a faint blue glow, and then at the surrounding seawater, which was being pushed away by the light emitted from the jade symbol. Not only did Leng Hao not come into contact with the seawater, but the jade symbol also absorbed air from the seawater to supply Leng Hao's breathing.

  "Is this an Evade Water Symbol? Don't you know? Really don't know how the scattered immortal cultivates," Leng Hao glanced at Shang Qing, who was standing still behind him, and muttered faintly.

  She was despised again, Shang Qing's face turned bright red, not with shame, but with flames of anger. She had ordinary talent and was an ordinary member in her clan. The first time she came out to gain experience, she encountered a strong enemy, suffered serious injuries and fled far away. Afterwards, by coincidence, she was rescued by Lin Lei. This young girl who was not worldly-wise fell in love with Lin Lei, and then they got married and had children, until now.

  It can be said that Shang Qing has the cultivation of a loose immortal, but in Bai Yue Huo, it's just ordinary cultivation. She has never really ventured out before, so her lack of experience is understandable.

  "Without the influence of the beast-controlling technique, a demon beast that can still fall deeply in love with humans is the stupidest kind of demon beast. Fortunately, it's just a fox," Cold Hao shook his head and muttered to himself.

  This sentence was left unspoken by Leng Xiao, otherwise Shang Qing would have been so humiliated and furious that she would have really fought him to the death.

  "Hmph, I was going to tell you something out of kindness, but now I don't want to," Shang Qing said coldly.

  "Hmm, you talk too much, let's go quickly, we need to head to the northern sea area, it's a long way," said Leng Hao indifferently, not showing any interest in what Shang Qing wanted to say.

  "This concerns your mother's matter, if you say a few good words, I'll tell you," Shang Qing said somewhat anxiously, seeing Leng Hao not giving in, he became exasperated.

  "Let's go," said Leng Hao, and then he swam northward as if he hadn't heard Shang Qing's words.

  Shang Qing was stunned, and in the past few days, she could also see that Leng Hao was still a very filial person. She had originally thought that mentioning this matter to Feng Lingyin would make Leng Hao anxious, but she hadn't expected it to turn out like this.

  "You... you bastard, when I went down to the water just now, I felt that there were many people hiding behind me. The strongest one was a beginner scattered immortal, who was lurking on one side. We'd better go up and solve these people first, otherwise your mother is in danger." Shang Qing was furious, but thinking about it, he still said it out loud. This kind of thing couldn't be delayed, she was worried about the safety of the people on the ground.

  "Don't worry, I know about this matter. Those people are the Royal Dead Warriors, they're here to protect my mother," said Cold Hao calmly. After a long time, he would always sense the presence of these dead warriors. He wasn't clear about Cold Ling Tian's purpose, but no matter what, the Royal Dead Warriors wouldn't possibly harm his mother.

  "Ah," Shang Qing let out a soft cry, her face slightly flushed. Although Leng Xiao didn't say anything else, she could feel that she had been too thoughtless. She had forgotten about Leng Xiao and Feng Lingyu's identities - the person hiding behind them was most likely someone protecting them in secret, yet she hadn't considered this possibility.

  Leng Hao didn't say much else and didn't mention that the purpose of these royal guards wasn't purely protection, but Shang Qing still kindly reminded him anyway.

  Shang Qing saw Leng Hua walking a distance away and didn't dare to think of anything else, hurriedly following up. As a loose immortal with middle-stage cultivation, she could move freely in the seawater without needing an avoidance talisman.

  After swimming for more than a time, Leng Hao and Shang Qing finally arrived at the northern sea area of Duojue State.

  They bypassed the large number of patrol beasts on the sea surface, Shang Qing and Leng Hao both took the Youling Dan, a pill refined by Leng Hao, which also brought out the effect of the herbs to the extreme. Only cultivators above the Scattered Immortal realm could see through their true identities.

  With the aura of a Loose Immortal in the middle stage, those sea beasts guarding the place thought that Shang Qing was an Uwater Snake Demon in the middle stage of Loose Immortal and did not dare to block him.

  The realm of the Scattered Immortals, all have the qualifications to go to the seabed to contend for the Heart of the Sea, this is a naked slaughter, only the final winner can obtain the Heart of the Sea, other losers must prepare to die.

  These ordinary sea creatures didn't want to get involved here in the first place. With their strength, they absolutely wouldn't be able to obtain any treasures. Among the sea creatures, there is also a strict hierarchy, and each powerful sea creature has its own territory and domain. The ordinary sea creatures under them can only listen to their master's orders. These ordinary sea creatures were all brought here by their respective masters, who had imposed a seal on their bloodlines, making it impossible for them to escape.

  This world is like that, everywhere it's survival of the fittest. To put it bluntly, humans are still relatively good, at least there are various rules and moral constraints, there's magic, but also orthodox Taoism and Buddhism, the orthodox way is much stronger than the evil way, they may also see ordinary people as ants, but at least they don't slaughter innocent people indiscriminately.

  This is one of the important reasons why humans become the masters of heaven and earth. Whether it's a demon beast or a sea beast, in the early stages of cultivation, their intelligence is very low, and they can only instinctively slaughter, going through layers of white bones of their own kind to become a powerful demon.

  Those demon overlords also wanted to learn from humans and set some rules to restrain the ordinary demons' slaughter, but humans have wisdom and fear death, so they will follow the rules obediently. However, those ordinary demons are not wise, once they get furious, they forget all the rules and go on a killing spree, completely uncontrollable.

  Although this is the case, the great demons born in this way often have combat power that far exceeds that of human beings of the same rank. However, among the righteous people, most of those who truly have talent will grow well under the constraints of the rules, and the number of masters will be much higher than that of great demons.

  In the human world, there are also demonic paths that recklessly destroy rules and slaughter ordinary people. The high-ranking demons will go to great lengths to collect talented boys and girls, carefully cultivate them, and then absorb their innate natures.

  The demonic path advances rapidly, but it is not tolerated by the world. This is after all a minority, and most of the talented people are under the protection of the righteous path. If the demonic path were to prosper, what would be the difference between humans and other demon tribes? Although the righteous path doesn't have good intentions either, at least it allows ordinary human beings to survive.

  Leng Hao and Qing continued to dive down, and the sea creatures they encountered along the way were getting stronger and stronger.

  The seawater was increasingly deep and dark, with cold starlight gathering in both eyes, barely making out the movements within a radius of ten meters around.

  The sea beasts were enormous, and only when they reached the level of scattered immortals could they transform into human form. Leng Hua and Shang Qing crossed over a small mountain-like sea beast, diving down for a long time until they could see sparse human silhouettes, which meant they had finally arrived at the core area.

  Here, the scattered beasts are all loose immortals, Cold Hao estimated that here is about 3,000 meters away from the sea surface. At this time, the water-avoiding talismans can no longer withstand the pressure of the seawater, and several pieces of water-avoiding talismans have already shattered due to exhaustion of energy.

  Leng Hao didn't expect Hai Lan's heart to be in such a deep sea area, but fortunately he wasn't unprepared. In his memory, there was a set of fish dragon incantations, a simple seal that could help ordinary cultivators roam freely in the deep sea.

  It's just that this fish-dragon technique requires the coordination of true energy and body movement, with the body twisting like a snake, which is quite unsightly. Unless absolutely necessary, Leng Xiao didn't want to do something so humiliating - a big man, shaking his hips like a woman, what a sight.

  Of course, Leng Xiao also knew that it was precisely because the body needed movement that it reduced the demand for true energy. Otherwise, with his cultivation level, other simple exercises of the same rank as Yu Long Jue that did not require movement would be impossible to achieve.

  Shang Qing triumphantly pulled Leng Hua into her protective shield, finally regaining some dignity in front of Leng Hua.

  Leng Hao looked at Shang Qing, who was getting excited, and thought that it would be better to stay in this shield after all. Although it was a bit embarrassing, it was still better than using the Fish Dragon Technique to swing his hips, which would be even more embarrassing.

  Continue diving down, and the human-shaped sea beasts around are all quickly flying downwards and diving down.

  Having arrived here, the Sea Heart is not far away. Below, Leng Hao has already seen many figures gathered in a circle and stopped on the spot, apparently the Sea Heart should be here.

  Leng Hao and Shang Qing stood at the periphery, he glanced over the crowd roughly, there were about a hundred people, all of whom could transform into at least scattered immortals. A small beast tide had attracted more than a hundred scattered immortal sea beasts. Fortunately, they did not intend to attack the island, otherwise the Great Yan Kingdom would have been destroyed. This kind of small beast tide can only be withstood by those major cultivation sects.

  Fortunately, among these hundreds of sea creatures, they were divided into many factions and belonged to different tribes. Even within the same tribe, it was inevitable that there would be competitive relationships, each fighting for themselves, and Cold Hua had not been without opportunities.

  The cold and bright eyes suddenly gathered the power of the stars, just passing through the gap between the crowd, saw the heart of the sea in the center.

  A pale blue crystal-like lotus-shaped crystal is slowly blooming, above the lotus, there is a deep blue fist-sized crystal emitting a bright light, illuminating this dark and mysterious deep-sea area.

  Indeed, it was the Heart of the Sea. Cold Hao nodded silently in his heart, with his insight, he wouldn't misjudge. When the lotus flower fully bloomed, it would be when the vortex's diameter expanded to its largest extent. When the lotus flower completely dissipated and merged with the crystal above, that would be when the Heart of the Sea was born.

  These more than a hundred people were all standing in mid-air, not saying a word. Each person had their own calculations. Some relied on their speed and planned to make a quick escape as soon as the Heart of the Sea was born. Others relied on their powerful backgrounds and promised to take care of things, pulling in many allies. There were also those who planned to hide at the edge first, waiting for others to exhaust themselves from fighting, before coming out to reap the benefits.

  Leng Hao kept a safe distance, his many methods were one-time use items and only had the greatest effect when dealing with one person. With so many sea beasts, he had to wait until they fought each other to the point of exhaustion before coming out to take action.
