Looking back at the Great Rewind Spell’s illusion, this whale was exceptionally huge, at least a hundred times larger than a normal spirit whale. It was an ancient whale that had lived for at least several thousand years.
“The back of this whale is almost as big as Sun Island, right?”Lotus sun was also particularly surprised.
Then, she looked at Wang Ling’s eyes as if he had suddenly come to a realization. The two of them were telepathically connected, and almost instantly thought of the same thing. “Could it be… that our sun family’s ancestral land wants this ancient whale’s body?”
“It’s very possible.”
Immortal Toya also agreed with this view, but then he frowned and said, “But this ancient whale is too big. Even if it’s hidden in the deep sea, once it surfaces, it’s not surprising that the shockwave it creates will cause a small tsunami. “But from the backtracking effect of the illusion spell just now, this ancient whale should have the ability to control its body size on its own.”
“In other words, when it floats up, it deliberately keeps its body in the shape of an ordinary spirit whale, and then when it gets close to its target, it instantly magnifies its body and devours it, and then reverts back to its normal size?”Lotus Sun asked.
“Mm.”Wang Ling nodded, directly confirming Lotus Sun’s guess.
This was the most reasonable answer he could come up with at the moment; otherwise, it was reasonable to say that an ancient whale with such a large body shouldn’t have been undetected.
In addition, Wang Ling also recalled that there had been rumors of prehistoric spirit beasts in the depths of the East Sea in the past few years, which reinforced his inner thoughts.
If this ancient whale had the ability to control its body size on its own, then it would indeed be difficult to discover if it disguised itself as an ordinary spirit whale and blended into the sea.
Of course, what surprised Wang Ling a little wasn’t the ancient whale’s ability to control its body size, but that it actually had a space-type ability.
On Earth, Spirit Beasts with space-type magic abilities were also very rare. The most common magic ability of many space-type spirit beasts was teleportation, even if they weren’t too far away, but such a spirit beast that could control space-type magic could be sold for a sky-high contract price.
If his deduction was correct, the Sun family ancestral land was very likely in the body of this ancient whale.
And this ancient whale that had lived for thousands of years… No, it was possible that it had lived for tens of thousands of years. The space-type ability it could control was even more advanced than the current space-type ability known on Earth!
This was a devouring ability.
It was called “Whale swallowing the world,”and Wang Ling had only learned about it among the divine beasts born from the chaos.
In that case, the origin of this ancient whale was a bit intriguing.
How could there be a divine beast of the Chaos-type hidden in the vast eastern sea?
Furthermore, it lay low in the depths of the eastern sea all year round, and would only surface when the Sun family needed to offer sacrifices to their ancestors to let the family head of the Sun family enter..
Sure enough, the Sun family’s ancestor back then was no ordinary person.
All along, there had been rumors in the cultivation world that Immortal Zhenyuan was the first person on Earth to break through to the venerated immortal realm.
But in fact, Wang Ling had a hunch that this might have been the result of some almighty experts hiding behind the scenes.
They had withdrawn from Immortal Zhenyuan, the number one venerated immortal, and then hid behind the scenes to use this as a cover..
This method was actually similar to how Wang Ling had pushed Odd Zhuo out in front of him.
..
“Help… help…”
Just as Wang Ling was thinking about how to find this ancient whale from the bottom of the sea, an ethereal cry for help caught the attention of the three people in the air.
Lotus Sun saw a humanoid creature that looked very similar to the Tibetan Fox floating on the surface of the sea from a distance, holding a piece of driftwood in its arms. It looked very strange and very weak, and it let out an extremely weak cry for help.
If it weren’t for Wang Ling’s unfathomable realm and his ability to clearly identify the sound, no one would have noticed the humanoid creature’s cry for help, because the sound of the waves was much louder and would directly drown out its voice.
Seeing this, Lotus Sun took out a golden pill from her storage bag almost immediately and threw it fiercely onto the surface of the sea.
This pill looked like a pill, but it was actually a condensed magic treasure that could condense a huge physical object into this small pill and put it to use at critical moments.
Usually, the most common thing to do was to seal a spirit car inside.
But the Sun family was a big family, so there were naturally many things that could be sealed.
When Lotus Sun threw the pill into the sea, a white mist rose up, and a huge submarine directly appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.
“…”seeing this, the corners of Wang Ling’s eyes couldn’t help twitching.
“As expected of you, Miss Sun…”immortal Toya was also very surprised. Although he had long thought of the Sun family’s extravagance, it was still a little unexpected for them to directly summon a submarine.
“This is the smallest item I have that can be used on the sea,”Lotus Sun said as she took out another ball. “This one has an aircraft carrier sealed inside.”
“…”Wang Ling and Immortal Toya.
“That’s not necessary, Miss Sun. Saving people is more important…”immortal toya smiled awkwardly but not politely, and then followed Wang Ling and Lotus Sun to land on the huge submarine engraved with the word “Sun.”.
Lotus Sun summoned arcane sea and used its power to gently lift up Mr. Hidden Fox, who was floating on the surface of the sea in the distance.
“Ahem…”Mr. Hidden Fox, who had been rescued, kept spitting out seawater, looking extremely pained.
“Are you okay, sir? Sigh, logically speaking, you’ve already cultivated to human form, so your realm should be very high. Why Can’t You Swim?”Lotus Sun looked at the human-shaped creature in front of her and asked with concern.
After Immortal Toya hurriedly examined the creature’s body, he looked at Lotus Sun and smiled bitterly. “Miss Sun… this sir isn’t a human-shaped spiritual beast… he’s a proper human.”
Lotus Sun’s face instantly turned red. “I’m sorry, sir… I, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“It’s fine, it’s fine… I’m used to being misunderstood by others. Besides, people do call me Mr. Hidden Fox by my nickname. It’s fine…”
After saying this, Mr. Hidden Fox wagged the Fox’s tail behind him. He swallowed the Spirit Energy Replenishment Pill that Immortal Toya had given him, he felt that his weak body had recovered a lot. “It’s like this. This is a side effect of my cultivation technique. It will make me a half-beast person.”
“On land, with my nascent soul stage cultivation, I naturally wouldn’t be in such a sorry state… but ever since the side effect of my cultivation technique was formed, my body seems to have become especially afraid of the sea. “As long as I touch the sea, the spiritual energy in my body will drain away at an accelerated rate…”
“I see.”The three people on the submarine understood after hearing this.
If the side effects of the cultivation technique weren’t taken seriously in the beginning, it would indeed cause unnecessary trouble, just like old antique and Daoist Taotie.
In fact, in the cultivation world, there were quite a few human cultivators who were permanently turned into half-orcs due to the side effects of the cultivation technique.
“Since you’re afraid of the sea, then why did Mr. Hidden Fox come to the surface of the sea?”
“Well…”Mr. Hidden Fox wrung the sea water off his fox tail, he said, “Actually, I’m a science scholar in the cultivation world. My real name is Xiao Liang. People call me Mr. Hidden Fox. “I’ve always heard that there might be prehistoric spirit beasts on the East Sea, so I couldn’t suppress my curiosity and came here to investigate.”
