Chapter 3268 – The Tidal Sea Spirit, Yuan Hua
After losing their weapon souls, the Great Emperor’s divine weapons had become completely ownerless objects. They could not be compared to what they had been before, but they were still Primal Origin Treasures after all, and quite a bit stronger than Peak Origin Divine Tools. As for weapon souls, they were formed from the gathered spiritual energy of the people who used them, or else formed when the weapon was being tempered. So even a Primal Origin Treasure without a weapon soul could still be slowly nurtured. Every divine treasure with a soul of its own was quite terrifying.
Jiang Chen put away the two Great Emperor’s divine weapons without the slightest politeness. Tantai Jingzang was a little envious, but she had nothing to say. After all, Jiang Chen had won those Great Emperor’s divine weapons himself. If not for him, perhaps they would already have died without a burial place. She had no objection at all to those two Great Emperor’s divine weapons going to him. Besides, neither of those two divine weapons was one she liked.
“Now it’s time to see where those guys went. Whether it’s the Shichahai Sea or whatever, I want to find out first. A few little bastards set me up, and I’m going to leave every one of them here.”
Jiang Chen said with icy eyes, staring fixedly at the door that had been closed.
“Don’t be too full of yourself. None of those guys are lamps that save oil. They didn’t use their full strength before at all. The great sects sent people like them, real mainstays and the best of the younger generation, to the Five Directions Great Emperor’s traveling palace. One reason is that the Great Emperor’s traveling palace is very important. The other is that if their own strength weren’t enough, how would they have been entrusted with such a task? If they played all their trump cards, I’m afraid even Divine Emperor Realm experts would have to avoid their edge. I know your strength isn’t weak, but making enemies of all of them is a bit too arrogant.”
Tantai Jingzang glanced at Jiang Chen. This guy was still so wild. She hoped he would not do anything too reckless. Otherwise, even she would not be able to save him.
“Let’s hope they don’t disappoint me.”
Jiang Chen gave a wicked smile, and the two of them opened the closed door once again.
A water-blue world came into view. Countless fish glided through the water, dazzling and colorful. The picture of the undersea world lay fully before their eyes, more beautiful than words could describe.
Looking at this magnificent undersea world, Tantai Jingzang was captivated by the scenery for a moment. Were they really about to enter this undersea world next? It was hard to believe.
“What an underwater world.”
Jiang Chen looked at the scene very gravely. Even he found this place very spectacular. He just did not know what kind of place it really was.
The two of them looked at each other, took a step forward and entered the undersea world.
A bone-chilling cold pierced straight to the heart, but Jiang Chen did not care about it at all. Once they entered the undersea world, they quickly sped forward. The seaweed, coral and fish around them were within arm’s reach, but after taking it in, Jiang Chen and Tantai Jingzang had no mind to linger. They quickly hurried to catch up. This undersea world was connected to the Five Directions Great Emperor’s traveling palace. It was definitely not simple.
The two of them traveled a full several thousand meters, and the fish around them grew bigger and bigger. At first they were only the size of a palm, but as they moved further away from the gateway step by step, the fish kept growing. Ordinary deep-sea fish had already reached the size of a person. There were giant turtles as big as stone lions, and even octopuses as big as houses. Gradually, more and more fish gathered around Jiang Chen and Tantai Jingzang.
“Look, there’s an undersea divine palace over there, all built from ice.”
Tantai Jingzang’s eyes moved. The enormous divine palace in the distance caught their attention. All around it were huge schools of fish, appallingly gigantic schools that almost completely blocked the undersea divine palace. Only through the gaps could a glimpse of the undersea divine palace be seen.
The two of them kept swimming forward, but at this moment, countless giant fish came rushing toward Jiang Chen and Tantai Jingzang.
“Go!”
Jiang Chen shouted in a low voice, his face dark, and grabbed Tantai Jingzang’s hand. A megalodon shark brushed right past them. Its terrifying, bloody maw had almost swallowed both of them whole.
The terrifying megalodon bared its bloodthirsty fangs. It was a full forty or fifty meters long, enormous in size and incredibly sturdy, blotting out the sky.
Tantai Jingzang glanced at Jiang Chen. That moment just now had been far too close. Even a Half-step Divine Emperor expert could not say for sure they would be able to dodge it. Even if she had dodged it, she would surely have suffered the megalodon’s frenzied attack. Jiang Chen and the megalodon stared at each other. An earth-shaking killing intent burst out from the megalodon’s eyes. It wanted to eat Jiang Chen and eat Tantai Jingzang. These two humans would be a great tonic.
“This thing has actually reached the Half-step Divine Emperor Realm. But this is its domain. Defeating it will be very hard for us. As one side waxes and the other wanes, its strength may be multiplied tenfold, while our strength will be weakened quite a bit. Be… careful.”
Tantai Jingzang said in a low voice. At this moment, facing this terrifying megalodon, both their eyes were extremely grave. On someone else’s territory, this was what it truly meant to be like a fish in water. So this enormous megalodon was very wild and did not show the slightest fear of Jiang Chen.
“Two lowly humans, your flesh and blood are my most perfect ingredients. Roar, roar, roar.”
At this moment, the enormous megalodon bared its fangs and said sinisterly.
All things have spirits, let alone this ferocious megalodon, whose strength had reached the Half-step Divine Emperor Realm. Most importantly, they were now under the sea, not on land. The megalodon’s attack power was far beyond what an ordinary Half-step Divine Emperor could match. Now the gap between them did not exist at all. Who would come out on top would depend on their fortune.
“This damned megalodon actually dares to provoke us!”
There was coldness at the corner of Jiang Chen’s mouth. It looked like if he did not teach it a lesson, it really would not know who it was dealing with.
“Roar, roar, roar. Lowly humans, I am your supreme king. This lord is no shark. I am the Tidal Sea Spirit, and my real name is Yuan Hua.”
“The Tidal Sea Spirit, Yuan Hua? Never heard of it. But since you can leave your name with me before you die, you can count as dying with a bit of dignity.”
Jiang Chen said with a smile.
“Brat, I think you don’t know what’s good for you. With death right in front of you, you still don’t know whether you live or die. Wanting to fight this lord is just courting death.”
The Tidal Sea Spirit roared. It was the king of this area. Any person or sea creature that dared to provoke it had been swallowed whole into its belly. A mere Hierarch like Jiang Chen was not worth its notice at all. No matter how strong Jiang Chen was, could he really fight it in the water?
