“Stupid! Did you forget about the sea beasts in the sea? That is an existence that even our spirit beast clan doesn’t dare to rashly provoke!” The ghastly thing said with a bitter smile.
“Ah! Then … Then what should we do?” Only then did Lin Yi come back to his senses. The sea beasts and spirit beasts were very distinct from each other, and most of the sea beasts were far away from the southern island. He subconsciously threw this dangerous factor to the back of his mind and broke out in a cold sweat.
Thinking back to the first time he was chased by West Mountain old sect, Lin Yi had encountered a terrifying sea beast like the ghost Stingray, and it was very close to the island. Its strength was already enough to scare him. Now that he was far away from the southern island, the sea beast he encountered would be much stronger. If he was unlucky, he would really die.
“Sea beasts are indeed scary, but it all depends on luck. As long as you’re lucky, you’ll have a chance to leave this place alive. If it were the other two exits, there would be no hope at all. It’s up to you to decide whether you want to take the risk or not.” The ghastly thing said after a moment of silence.
“Senior, you’re right. Since that’s the case, let’s go up from here. A living person can’t die from holding their pee.” Lin Yi clenched his teeth and made the decision. Wealth came from danger, and many times, people were forced to fight with their lives.
In fact, the endless sea was full of danger, but Lin Yi didn’t plan to explore the sea. As soon as he went out, he’d get the bird to rush out of the sea as fast as possible. The process would be very short, and the possibility of encountering a super-strong sea beast wasn’t very high. Once they came out of the sea, they’d be free to fly.
The ghost wasn’t surprised by Lin Yi’s decision at all.
“You really want to leave from here? We have to be careful. It sounds dangerous. ” The Dragon of the five demons reminded him. Although he had never come into contact with sea beasts before, even this damn thing, the former Azure Dragon, was taking this matter seriously. This meant that it was not simple. Even he, who was only at the earth formation stage, might be in danger, let alone Lin Yi, who was only at the peak of the early nascent Soul Stage.
“Don’t worry, thank you for your help during this period of time. I’ll take my leave now, but I believe that I’ll come to the southern island to find you again soon. ” Lin Yi nodded.
This was not a polite remark. After all, there was a ghost here. When he had enough strength in the future, he would definitely accompany the ghost back to the southern island. When that time came, the Vermilion bird’s death would not be far away.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you here. Take care!” The Dragon of the five demons nodded heavily.
After three months of living together, it treated Lin Yi as an old friend, not to mention that ghastly was a Dragon senior that it respected. If it wasn’t for its master’s orders, it would even want to go out with Lin Yi.
It was a pity that the Dragon of five evils bore a blood feud. Before the five poisons flood Dragon died, it had specifically instructed it to stay here and suffer. Before its strength was enough to contend with the Vermilion Bird, it was not allowed to leave this underground space even by half a step, lest it invite a fatal disaster.
After saying goodbye to the Dragon of five evils, Lin Yi took a deep breath and jumped on the back of the spiritual bird. He wrapped himself and the spiritual bird with his Qi and flew up into the sky, quickly disappearing into the five elements killing intent.
At the start, it was the same as before-the five elements killing intent grew stronger and weaker, and after the middle layer it became weaker. Not only was the pressure weaker, but the amount was also decreasing. After about an incense’s time, Lin Yi realized that the five elements killing intent had completely disappeared, and what appeared above his head was a cave entrance!
Lin Yi thought that this exit would be the same as the five poisons swamp, with a vast area above it, but he didn’t expect this hole to be much smaller than he thought. It was only a few feet wide, and he and the spiritual bird could enter and leave freely. If it was the Dragon of five evils, it would be a little difficult, but if it was an even bigger existence, it would be impossible to enter and leave from here, unless he destroyed the hole or transformed into a human.
Looking into the hole, it was completely dark inside. The naked eye could not see the situation inside at all. Only the sound of rumbling water could be vaguely heard. The water must be very rapid.
“There is a whirlpool portal up there. As for what is on the other side of the portal, it will depend on luck.” The ghastly thing said after sensing it with his divine sense.
“Uh, it can’t be like the whirlpool channel I saw before, directly leading to the hinterland of the southern island, right?” Lin Yi didn’t have a good feeling about this-he’d already prepared himself for the endless ocean, but it’d be a joke if he ended up in the southern part of the island.
“I can’t say for sure. Although I’ve studied the whirlpool portal near the South Island, it’s only a small part of it. I’ve never even heard of a whirlpool portal in a place like this before. Who knows where it leads to? it’s entirely up to luck. To be honest, you can still regret it now.” The ghastly thing’s tone had a rare hint of caution.
“There’s no turning back. Since we’re already here, what’s the point of going back? Even if there is a mountain of daggers and a sea of flames in front of me, I will still have to toughen my head and give it a try. If I don’t even have the courage to do this, then I will never be able to leave this place in my life. ” Lin Yi’s determination was far greater than what the ghost had expected. Rather than being afraid, he’d rather walk this path to the end.
With that, Lin Yi didn’t hesitate for too long. After adjusting his state of mind, he ordered the spirit Bird to enter the whirlpool tunnel.
The water in this Whirlpool tunnel was extremely strong. If Lin Yi didn’t use all his Qi to protect himself, the water might even tear him and the spiritual bird into pieces. If Lin Yi was still in the mid-stage of golden core, he might not be able to take it, but now he was at the peak of the early-stage of nascent soul.
The stronger the water current, the faster it was. Lin Yi and the spiritual bird drifted with the water for half an incense’s time before they felt the ground below them empty. They were thrown out together and struggled for a long time before they managed to maintain their position.
It was dark all around, and Lin Yi couldn’t even see his fingers, but he relaxed a little. He could tell from the water pressure that they were in the depths of the ocean. It was dangerous, but it was better than being transported to the heart of the southern island. As long as they could get to the surface, everything would be fine.
An ordinary person would definitely not be able to withstand such a place and would have been crushed by the unparalleled water pressure! (To be continued.) ”
