Chapter 220 The Central Region of the Sea Kingdom

Besides the pearls of all sizes, there were many other things inside the cave: glowing flowers, coral-like trees, and tiny, glowing insects flying around...

The cave is beautiful, but you can't use your powers here. No matter how beautiful a place is, you can't appreciate it if you can't use your powers.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi lowered her eyes and looked at Jin Zhou: "Why did you bring us here?"

Jin Zhou is still unwilling to communicate. When he heard Ling Yi ask, he jumped off Ling Yi's arms and used his tail to support himself as he hopped into the pool in the middle of the cave.

Seeing Jin Zhou jump in, Ling Yi helped Ji Yanzhi to the edge of the pool, wanting to see what was going on.

After Jin Zhou went into the pool, the pool remained still. The two waited by the pool for about fifteen minutes before seeing a giant pinkish-blue clam float to the surface.

The giant clam floated to the surface, and the water in the pool spread outwards, but soon disappeared again.

Under the watchful eyes of Ling Yi and Ji Yanzhi, the giant clam slowly opened, revealing Jin Zhou lying inside.

Upon seeing the two, Jin Zhou waved to them.

Ling Yi: "..."

Ling Yi led Ji Yan up.

After the two went up, the giant clam closed up and sank to the bottom of the pool. At the same time, Jin Zhou climbed to a spot and pressed a point. A flash of light appeared on the giant clam shell, and when the light faded, the outside scenery could be seen even inside the shell.

Ling Yi was a little surprised and asked Jin Zhou, "Can people outside see inside?"

Although Jin Zhou was still unwilling to speak, it would answer with its tail, flicking it twice. Ling Yi smacked its lips, but it still wouldn't.

Emotions are still a one-way shell.

After the giant clam sank to the bottom of the pool, it sped off in one direction. All it could see was water, so even if it could see, it wouldn't be worth it anymore.

The giant clam was very fast, and Jin Zhou rolled around inside it with great joy.

The giant clam darted through the water. As the clam darted out, Ling Yi moved his hands and discovered that he could use his strength again.

Just then, a sea beast appeared before them. The sea beast was not very big. It curiously approached the giant clam and then... was knocked away.

Seeing the sea monster fly away, Jin Zhou clapped his hands, looking extremely happy.

About half an hour later, the giant clam entered another underwater cave and began to rise.

As the giant clam rose, Ling Yi saw dense tree roots through its shell.

The giant clam rose to the surface of the pool. Jin Zhou opened the clam and went into the cave. Ling Yi helped Ji Yan up. After they were all up, the giant clam sank into the water and disappeared.

Jin Zhou began to climb up the tree roots. Seeing this, Ling Yi carried Ji Yanzhi on his back and followed.

The cave was in the water. After a while, I was in the water again as soon as I left the cave. Fortunately, I can use my strength now, so I don't run out of breath.

Upon seeing a glimmer of light, Ling Yi sped up the tree trunk, darted out from behind, and with a flick of his tail in the water, leaped up and landed on a higher branch, quickly climbing upwards.

Upon seeing this, Ling Yi carried Ji Yanzhi and followed. Once they reached the top of the tree, they could vaguely see some buildings through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

Once we reached the top of the tree, we stood there and looked into the distance, where we saw a series of exquisite palaces.

Jin Zhou pointed at the palaces, his voice brimming with excitement.

Ji Yanzhi told Ling Yi, "This should be the central area of ​​the Sea God Kingdom, and those palaces are the most crucial places."

Ling Yi was a little surprised: "We've gone straight to the central area?"

“Hmm.” Ji Yanzhi looked at Jin Zhou: “She deserves a lot of credit.”

"Shall we go to the palace now?" Ling Yi asked.

Ji Yanzhi looked at the palaces ahead and shook his head: "Don't go there yet. Let's wait until Ji Changrong finds us before we go."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yi knew that the place was more dangerous than before: "Okay."

Jin Zhou darted to another spot, picked a fruit, and brought it to Ling Yi's mouth.

Ling Yi took the fruit and took a bite. It was juicy and sweet, and it also contained a rich spiritual energy. The spiritual energy contained in one fruit was more than that of the top-grade spirit stones given by Tian Yan!

Ling Yi finished the fruit in a few bites and picked it herself without Jin Zhou having to lift a finger.

He picked two and brought them back, giving one of them to Ji Yanzhi.

"Thank you." Ji Yanzhi took it, took a bite, swallowed it, and said, "I thought you would pick all the fruit from this tree."

Ling Yi smiled and said, "You're overthinking it."

Ji Yan was taken aback. Before he could ask, he heard Ling Yi say, "Picking them all isn't enough. I'm going to move the trees away."

"Plop!" Jin Zhou, who was holding a fruit and eating it, froze upon hearing this. The fruit slipped from his hand and fell into the water after several collisions. However, Jin Zhou didn't care about the fruit and shook his head frantically at Ling Yi.

Ling Yi looked at her: "You won't let me move?"

Jin Zhou shook his head and nodded repeatedly, looking quite confused.

Ji Yanzhi said: "The Spirit Fruit takes a hundred years to bloom, four hundred years to bear fruit, and five hundred years to mature. It takes a thousand years. After it matures, if no one picks it, the fruit will remain until someone picks it, at which point it will enter the next growth period."

“So…” Ling Yi looked at Ji Yanzhi: “Even if we pick the fruit this time and move the tree away, we still have to wait another thousand years?”

“Hmm.” Ji Yanzhi nodded: “So there’s no need to move the trees, just pick the fruit.”

"Okay." After Ji Yanzhi finished speaking, Ling Yi went to pick fruit.

Jin Zhou scurried up and down to help. Although there was only one tree, it was big and full of fruit. Ling Yi and Jin Zhou picked for a long time, but they hadn't even picked half of it.

Ji Yanzhi sat on the tree, quietly watching Ling Yi busy herself.

By the time Ling Yi and Jin Zhou finished picking the fruit from the Spirit Tree, it was almost dark.

Jin Zhou was exhausted and looked at Ling Yi pitifully.

Ling glanced at the fruits in the space and made an exception, allowing Jin Zhou to absorb more.

After Jin Zhou finished washing up, Ling Yi looked at Ji Yanzhi and said, "They haven't arrived yet. Waiting is a waste of time. I'll cultivate."

"Okay." Ji Yanzhi nodded: "I'll keep an eye on her, so you can focus on your cultivation."

"Mm." Ling nodded, chose a thick tree branch, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate.

As soon as Ling began cultivating, all the spiritual energy gathered towards him.

...

"boom"

A tremendous force surged forth, and Ye Qingshuang moved swiftly to dodge the attack. At the same time, she used the surrounding trees and vines to her advantage, quickly entangling the beast before her under her control.

Unwilling to be entangled, the beast burst into flames, attempting to burn the vines off.

"It's useless." Ye Qingshuang looked at the beast before her: "The plants and trees under my control are all imbued with the power of the Spirit Race!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Qingshuang took out her jade flute. The moment she blew it, the wind condensed into blades and flew towards the giant beast.

"puff"

The wind blade pierced its body, blood splattered, and the Earth-level beast collapsed.

After dealing with the beast, Ye Qingshuang quickly returned to Lin Chengtian's side: "Didn't you take the medicine? Why hasn't the bleeding stopped yet?"

Lin Chengtian sat leaning against a tree, his body extremely weak, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.

"It's all Ji Changrong's fault." Ye Qingshuang reached out to take off Lin Chengtian's clothes: "Your pills couldn't stop the bleeding, and your body couldn't handle my pills, so I had to bandage him up."

Lin Chengtian didn't say anything, letting Ye Qingshuang take off his clothes.

Ye Qingshuang took off Lin Chengtian's clothes and looked at his body. Four dark claw marks were about to cover his entire chest.

"Poisonous?" Ye Qingshuang exclaimed in surprise. "No wonder the bleeding wouldn't stop."

"Otherwise, what do you think I went there for?" Bai Qingjue returned with a bottle of white wine and a white-furred, black-clawed Earth-level beast in his hand.

Bai Qingjue tossed the beast's corpse to Ye Qingshuang: "Grind the bones into powder and sprinkle it on the wound to detoxify."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang swiftly began to dispose of the corpse: "If you hadn't chosen such a bad teleportation landing point, you wouldn't have been attacked as soon as you arrived."

“He was injured, and you just took the liquor and ran away. If you weren’t Ji Yanzhi’s brother, I would have thought you abandoned him when disaster struck.”

Bai Qingjue was speechless, but still explained: "I didn't know there were beasts fighting here before I chose the landing point. As for running away, it was because I recognized that the beast that scratched him was poisonous, and the antidote was the beast's bones. It ran away, so I chased after it."

Ye Qingshuang glanced at him: "Then why did you bring the liquor with you?"

"I just picked it up without thinking." There was no explanation for this, so Bai Qingjue simply didn't bother to explain.

"You're sick." Ye Qingshuang cursed, then said no more. She sprinkled some of the prepared animal bone powder on Lin Chengtian's wound, and put the rest in a bottle just in case.

After preserving the bone powder, Ye Qingshuang began bandaging Lin Chengtian. Just then, Bai Qingjue approached, and Ye Qingshuang asked him irritably, "What are you doing?"

Bai Qing first glanced at the wound, then looked at Lin Chengtian and said with an ambiguous expression, "An extraordinary person."

Ye Qingshuang was speechless: "Big brother, just say what you mean, don't be sarcastic."

Aside from Ling Yi, Ye Qingshuang didn't want to listen to anyone's sarcastic remarks.

“Then I’ll just say it directly,” Bai Qingjue said. “He doesn’t even have the cultivation of the Yellow Spirit Realm, yet he was poisoned by a Earth-level Xuan Beast, and the poison was so close to his heart, yet he didn’t die. Isn’t he an extraordinary person?”

Ye Qingshuang glanced at him: "Do you really want him dead?"

"How could that be?" Bai Qingjue said, "I have no grudge against him, I was just curious."

"Hehe." Ye Qingshuang said with a forced smile, "Do you know that curiosity killed the cat?"

"Okay." Bai Qingjue felt that Ye Qingshuang was the truly sarcastic person: "I won't ask anymore."

Ye Qingshuang was too lazy to say anything more. After bandaging Lin Chengtian, she was about to go and retrieve the corpse of the Earth-level beast, but after taking a step, she instantly retreated back to Lin Chengtian's side.

Bai Qingjue also noticed something was wrong immediately and shielded Baijiu behind her.

"What's wrong?" Baijiu didn't sense anything was wrong, but seeing how tense the two were, she asked.

"It's alright." Bai Qingjue stared intently ahead. "When we encounter anyone, pretend to be blind. Don't let them know you can see."

Ye Qingshuang quickly took out three masks and handed them to the three people: "Put them on immediately."

Ye Qingshuang put the mask on Lin Chengtian. After putting it on Lin Chengtian, Ye Qingshuang touched her forehead, and her originally only handsome face immediately became gorgeous.

Lin Chengtian witnessed the change in Ye Qingshuang's expression and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Ye Qingshuang looked at him and said, "Don't be surprised, don't give anything away, don't say anything, I'm here."

Before Lin Chengtian could respond, a group of people suddenly appeared in their line of sight. Ye Qingshuang put a mask on her face and then stood up to face the group.

It was a small team of about twenty people, led by two elderly men and women. The rest were mostly young men and women, all dressed in uniform clothing with very conspicuous totems embroidered on them, as if afraid that others would not know that they were descendants of gods.

The team quickly arrived, but Ye Qingshuang looked at the sky and the ground without glancing at them. Her dismissive attitude instantly displeased the two elders at the head of the group, who unleashed a burst of power without saying a word.

Ye Qingshuang raised her hand, and a barrier unfolded, blocking the old man's power. She then smiled contemptuously: "You are still so arrogant and rude, attacking people casually. But don't forget, you are not truly the only ones who are in this world."

The elderly man at the head of the group was first stopped by Ye Qingshuang's attack, and then mocked. He sneered, "You only have a little strength. You just wanted to teach us a lesson. Do you think that stopping us means you can defeat us?"

"Teach me a lesson?" Ye Qingshuang sneered, "You think you're worthy?"

Hearing this, the old man's anger intensified, but before he could speak, the young divine descendant behind him spoke up: "Such arrogance! I wonder if you dare to exchange a few blows with me?"

"You worthless dog, you are not worthy." Ye Qingshuang looked at the divine descendant who spoke: "Even you old dogs are not worthy to fight me, so you are even less worthy."

"You!" The divine descendant attacked Ye Qingshuang in a fit of rage, "You're courting death!"

The two old men wanted to see what Ye Qingshuang was capable of, so they didn't stop her. However, they didn't expect that by not stopping her, Ye Qingshuang would raise her hand and instantly control the surrounding wind.

"puff"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the wind blade pierced through the young god's heart and instantly shattered it.

With a "bang," the divine descendant fell from mid-air, landing on the ground with a painful howl.

When the other divine descendants saw this, they rushed forward to try to save the person, but it was too late.

The two elders looked at Ye Qingshuang with grim expressions: "The Spirit Clan still acts so domineeringly."

"You're wrong. The Spirit Clan's tyranny depends on who they treat," Ye Qingshuang said with a smile. "Of course, they'll give a good beating to a bunch of treacherous dogs like you."

"This is outrageous!" Hearing Ye Qingshuang use the word "dog" repeatedly, one of the old men couldn't stand it and was about to make a move. However, as soon as he moved, the soil beneath his feet, the grass on the ground, the trees in the forest, and the invisible wind all began to move.

Seeing this, the old man unleashed several bursts of power, breaking through Ye Qingshuang's attack.

Ye Qingshuang was not angry at this. She could let the little dog go, but the old dog was not so easy to kill.

Seeing that Ye Qingshuang stopped attacking, the Divine Descendant unleashed a burst of power. As Ye Qingshuang raised her hand to intercept the incoming power, she noticed another team approaching from behind the Divine Descendant. Upon seeing the leader of that team, Ye Qingshuang's pupils constricted, and she instinctively stopped her blocking motion. The old man's power drew closer, and the resulting wind blew off Ye Qingshuang's mask, revealing her face.

Just as the attack was about to land on Ye Qingshuang, a person appeared in front of her, blocked the force, and struck back at the old man of the divine lineage.
