Chapter 42: Netherworld Sea

Views:

"Is this the legendary Netherworld Sea?"

In the sky above the sea, Ye Zan, his siblings from the Lin family, and two Masonic deacons looked at the sea that was as dark as ink at their feet.

This is where the West China Sea and the South China Sea meet. The sea water with a radius of nearly ten thousand miles is as dark as ink.

It is said that thousands of years ago, in this ocean, at a special time every year, the sky would be so dark that it merged with the sea surface, and the sea surface would set off huge waves, and sounds like ghosts and gods would be heard.

The heart-shaking sound will spread to the mainland thousands of miles away, and some fishermen along the coast can hear it clearly. Therefore, in the legends of the fishermen, it is said that under this sea area, there is an eye of the sea that leads directly to the Netherworld, so the name Netherworld Sea came into being.

It's just that such visions gradually stopped appearing thousands of years ago, leaving only the dark sea water, which still shows that this place is unusual.

This sea area is indeed very strange and cannot be detected by high-altitude detectors. This reminds Ye Zan of the secret realm back then. That secret realm was blocked by the formation because it blocked the scanning of high-altitude detectors. So, are there any man-made factors in this sea area now

So, after sending Ye Xiao away, Ye Zan took the Lin family siblings, accompanied by two deacons of the Freemasonry, to this strange sea.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, are you sure you want to go down?" The deacon of the Freemasonry asked Ye Zan worriedly.

"Well, I have to go take a look. I have two fellow Taoists waiting here." Ye Zan nodded and said to the two deacons of the Freemasonry.

Ye Zan, of course, does not want to bring outsiders to explore the clues about this level. The two deacons of the Freemasonry actually didn't want to take the risk. After all, this sea really didn't look normal.

So, after hearing Ye Zan's words, the two deacons quickly said: "Okay, then the two of me will wait here for the return of the three fellow Taoists."

Ye Zan turned to the Lin siblings and said, "Miaomiao, Mumu, let's go down."

"Yeah." The Lin siblings nodded.

Then, the three people fell from mid-air to the black sea like meteors. While falling, pieces of metal parts flew out of the three people's Qiankun Rings and automatically assembled on their bodies. In the blink of an eye, just as the three of them were about to enter the water, their appearance had completely changed, turning into three mecha warriors wearing metal armor.

"Boom, boom, boom" sounded three times, and the three people entered the black sea water.

Although people who practice Taoism, especially Golden elixir masters, can move freely in the water with the help of water avoidance techniques. However, being in the water is no different than being outside, and there are still many restrictions on movement.

The biggest problem is that the water avoidance method is a kind of magic, so it must be time-sensitive. If you are active underwater for a long time, you must cast a spell every once in a while. So, if there is a real crisis, it is likely to cause a lot of trouble.

Therefore, when he came, Ye Zan quickly made these three pieces of armor in the jade ball space.

These three pieces of armor are based on the individual mechas in the technological world as templates and are refined through weapon refining methods. They can be regarded as a kind of magic weapon armor.

In addition to protecting the body, the main function of this magic weapon armor is to assist people in underwater activities. Through the combination of technology and weapon refining, with the help of this armor, people's underwater activities will hardly be affected in any way.

In addition, some of the functions of the technological mecha are also available on this magic weapon armor, such as communication, positioning, scanning and reconnaissance, etc.

After the three of them entered the water, they turned on the scanning and reconnaissance function. Even if there was no light at all, they could still understand the surrounding scene. At least the three of them were surrounded by complete silence, without any bioenergy reaction, not even microorganisms.

"Be careful and continue going down." Ye Zan gave instructions to the Lin siblings through the armor's communicator.

"Okay." The Lin family siblings each responded.

As a result, the three of them continued to dive to the bottom of the sea, probably to a depth of tens of thousands of meters. The strong water pressure had already activated some runes on the armor. Technological means alone are not irresistible, but they will inevitably have an impact on actions, and combined with the weapon refining method, the impact of water pressure can be reduced very well.

At this moment, the armor's scanning system sounded an alarm, and a strong energy response appeared within the scanning range, and it was rapidly approaching the three of them.

Ye Zan and others reacted immediately, launching their flying swords and pointing directly in the direction of the strong energy source. Almost at the same moment, a huge thing emitting light cyan light was seen, seeming to ignore the resistance of the sea water, and rushed towards the three of them like lightning.

"It's a soul body!"

The huge thing that rushed towards it was a shark that was common in the sea, but it looked incorporeal. Its whole body was made up of the light blue light, and it looked like a ghost body. However, although ordinary sharks cannot be said to have no souls, not everyone can keep their souls alive after death, let alone become the soul body in front of them.

From this, it can be seen that the ghost body of this shark is probably related to something under the sea.

The shark soul had rushed towards the three of them in the blink of an eye. Lin Miaomiao raised her hand and performed a sword technique. The flying sword hanging beside her turned into a rainbow light and shot directly at the shark soul. Even though she was wearing magic weapon armor and her hands were wrapped in armor, it did not affect her speed at all.

The rainbow light flew and instantly penetrated the shark soul. Countless small sword lights burst out, stirring in all directions within the body of the shark soul. The huge shark soul was smashed into pieces in the blink of an eye, turning into pieces of fluorescent light that spread out, making the sea area seem to turn into a starry night sky.

However, immediately afterwards, the disintegration of the Shark Soul seemed to send a signal. Around the three people, countless energy reactions appeared, and like a tide, they surged towards the three people.

Soon, the three of them saw the bodies of those energy reactions, which were the souls of countless various marine creatures. Inside, there are not only more shark souls, but also even larger whale souls, as well as the ghostly bodies of turtles, lobsters, octopuses, and various large and small fish.

Looking at it now, it is no wonder that this sea area has become like this without any living marine life.

Although this group of ghost bodies is very large in number, their strength is not that great. Not to mention lobsters and turtles, even the huge whale soul was overwhelmed by the attacks from Ye Zan and others.

However, it will not take a moment to exterminate these ghosts. Therefore, the three people continued to dive while resisting, and finally stepped on the ground on the seabed.

"Why does it seem like there's nothing?" Lin Mumu looked around and said to Ye Zan very disappointed.

Ye Zan, at this time, had also scanned the surroundings. The result was the same as what Lin Mumu saw, a flat seabed without any special existence.

However, immediately afterwards, Ye Zan discovered that there was a very obscure energy wave coming out of the seabed in the distance.

"Go over there, there might be something underground." Ye Zan said to the Lin family siblings, and then pinched the sword in his hand. Then he saw the Thousand Light Sword changing direction and dividing into thousands of sword lights. In an instant, a transparent passage was cut out of the flood of the ghost body, leading straight to that area.

Without saying a word, the Lin family siblings followed Ye Zan, using their flying swords to block the approach of the ghost body, while heading in the direction Ye Zan said.

"This is it!" Ye Zan pressed the magic formula with his hand, and suddenly a huge tornado rose in the sea in front of him, rolling up a large amount of sand on the seabed.

As the sand was rolled up in large quantities, the things under the sand gradually revealed their true appearance. It was a huge altar. There were forty-nine jade pillars around the altar, and each jade pillar was tied with a chain thicker than a human waist. Forty-nine chains gathered in the center of the altar and were tied to a huge skeleton.

Ye Zan observed for a moment, and the energy fluctuations he detected before were coming from that huge skeleton. He pointed his hand, and the tornado that rolled up the sand quickly moved to the side. As the tornado dissipated, the huge amount of sand that was swept up remained there and piled up a sand mountain.

Then, Ye Zan jumped towards the altar and landed directly in front of the huge skeleton. Upon seeing this, the Lin family siblings immediately followed Ye Zan, standing next to Ye Zan on the left and right.

At this time, looking around, the endless ghost bodies seemed to be quite afraid of the altar. They were densely surrounding the altar, but no one dared to enter the range of the altar.

"What is this? Did Senior Xuanqing suppress it here?" Lin Mumu looked at the huge skeleton curiously.

This huge skeleton looks a bit like a dragon from the skull and neck bones. However, looking at the body bones, it looks like a beast like a liger, and there is a pair of bone wings on its back.

There is no doubt that the fact that this thing is here must be related to Xuanqing Daozu.

Ye Zan checked the database, finally found the answer, and said: "This skeleton seems to be quite similar to the legendary Longzi Yazui."

"Yaiyi?" Lin Mumu was reminded, and looked at the skeleton carefully, and said, "When Brother Ye said this, it seems that it is really Yaizhen."

As the saying goes, a dragon has nine sons, each one is different, and Ya Zi is one of them. To put it in a positive way, this may be a genetic mutation, but to put it in a negative way, who knows what is going on. Anyway, as a dragon son, this Ya Zi is very different from a real dragon, so let's just treat it as a genetic mutation.

The reason why Yaizhen was suppressed here is unknown, but he must have offended Taoist Xuanqing. The vision in this sea area thousands of years ago may be its last struggle.
