Two Realms: I Will Become the Immortal Emperor

Chapter 407: Chapter 378: Another Overseas Fierce Dragon

"Let’s go!"

The two exchanged a glance and quickly transformed into a streak of Escape Light, speeding toward the depths of the waters.

At the same time, Chen Che’s vast Divine Sense swept out, rapidly extending in all directions.

After entering the Chaotic Waters, it felt as if they had entered a colossal, bottomless basin. The water pressure grew increasingly immense and terrifying. He could even feel his Divine Sense being suppressed by a solid thirty percent, its range reduced to a mere one hundred thousand zhang. The deeper they went, the greater the suppression became.

But the Aquatic Race had no such troubles.

Even in the deepest parts of the sea, the Aquatic Race dwelled.

There were schools of anglerfish, the fleshy lures on their heads drifting like lanterns in the deep, flickering past in the distance, much like night-patrolling spirits carrying lanterns.

There were also massive sharks that shot past, whooshing by like leopards hunting on the savanna.

There were even deep-sea Evil Flood Dragons, as large as dragons, weaving rapidly through the underwater mountains.

However, as one of these Evil Flood Dragons passed a mountain peak, it was suddenly bitten by a colossal creature. It didn’t even have a chance to struggle before its enormous body was torn in two on the spot, then slowly chewed and swallowed.

Only then did Chen Che get a clear look. The attacker was a giant turtle with a head as large as a house. Its aura was concealed, and its Turtle Shell was covered in coral reefs, making it look like an inconspicuous small island as it lay on the seabed. It had even avoided his Divine Sense earlier.

If it hadn’t suddenly attacked, he would have never noticed its presence.

Seeing Chen Che look over, the giant turtle swallowed the Evil Flood Dragon with a GULP. It slowly retracted its head, put on a harmless-looking expression, and settled back down.

If he hadn’t just seen it eat, Chen Che might have actually believed its foolish, docile act.

"A Golden Core Realm Dragon Turtle. It’s the same species as the one from the day the Star-Picking Sect and the Primordial Sect went to war, but this one is even bigger. It’s probably stronger than that one too, maybe even Late-stage Golden Core. We’d better keep our distance."

His father-in-law was also a little scared. He hadn’t expected to encounter such a terrifying creature so soon after entering the Chaotic Waters.

With their own power diminished and the creature’s enhanced, the two of them together might not be its match.

However, Dragon Turtles were among the more stable-tempered members of the Aquatic Race. As long as you didn’t provoke them or have the bad luck of running into a starving one, you could generally escape with your life.

’This is another creature with the bloodline of an Ancient Fierce Beast. A shame the bloodline is too diluted, or it would be perfect for Alchemy,’ Chen Che thought to himself.

The most prominent characteristic of Ancient Fierce Beasts was their size: they were massive!

The purer their bloodline, the larger their bodies, and naturally, the stronger they were. That was why in ancient times, every Fierce Beast that could dominate a region was terrifyingly powerful. However, while their immense size brought unparalleled strength, it also made them prime targets for Ancient Cultivators, leading to a sharp decline in their numbers.

But the sea was vaster than the land, so it naturally harbored a greater number of Ancient Fierce Beasts.

According to legend, many Fierce Beasts had hidden in the sea.

Even flipping through some ancient texts revealed similar records of Fierce Beasts being suppressed at the bottom of the sea or sealed on certain islands.

Therefore, Chen Che strongly suspected that True Master Chilong had entered a similar location back then, which was how he had brought back the Little Chick.

While Chen Che was sizing up their surroundings, Meng Changtu was also observing the environment.

"This skeleton... it’s completely petrified..."

The two discovered the skeleton of a giant fish on the seabed, which resembled that of a whale. Years of immersion and pressure had crushed it into a gray color, and strands of algae clung to it. Reaching out to touch it, he felt a stony texture.

His father-in-law turned to Chen Che:

"Do you recognize it?"

Chen Che shook his head.

Marine life was the most diverse. Even on Earth Element Star, previously undiscovered species would emerge every few decades. The skeleton before them was massive, a full two sizes larger than the Dragon Turtle they had just seen.

Who knew why it had perished here.

Inside the skeleton, they also found some corroded Magical Artifacts. Meng Changtu picked up an Array Disc, but before he could get a good look, it shattered into several pieces with a CRACK.

"It’s been here for too long; the Spiritual Qi has already dissipated. It couldn’t withstand being touched. Given the state of this, who knows what condition the Undersea Palace will be in..."

His father-in-law shook his head.

Chen Che was about to speak when his brow suddenly twitched, and he looked into the distance.

While Meng Changtu was still trying to figure out what was happening, the calm surrounding currents visibly became violent. A torrent-like surge swept past the two of them. In the blink of an eye, the massive skeleton was covered in cracks, and then it burst apart, irresistibly turning to dust.

Countless members of the Aquatic Race fled from the direction of the torrent, rushing past the two in a panic.

At the same time, an immense aura rapidly approached.

They saw a Giant Flood Dragon, about half the size of Wangxian Monarch, hurtling across the seabed. Its jet-black scales snaked through the underwater mountains like black lightning, its gaping maw filled with interlocking fangs.

WHOOSH—

"It’s a Xianglong!"

Meng Changtu’s eyes narrowed, and the Black Blade quickly appeared in his hand.

This was another member of the Aquatic Race that possessed the bloodline of an Ancient Fierce Beast. Although its name contained the character for ’dragon,’ it had no connection to the Dragon Race. It was said to be a descendant of the nine-headed serpent, Xiangyao, and was considered an absolute hegemon in the sea.

From its open mouth, trickles of an inky black liquid occasionally seeped out. Any member of the Aquatic Race that got too close would inexplicably turn belly-up and die. Clearly, it was a lethal toxin condensed from True Essence.

"It’s not coming for us..."

Chen Che quickly held his father-in-law back.

In front of the Xianglong was a rapidly moving figure, constantly weaving through the underwater ravines to evade pursuit.

But the Xianglong was clearly more ferocious. It charged recklessly, razing everything in its path—be it underwater volcanoes or forests—to the ground. Everywhere it passed, the seabed was thrown into chaos.

And in front of the Xianglong was a Golden Core Female Cultivator wearing Body-Binding Leather Armor.

Seeing this, Meng Changtu’s wariness immediately shifted to her:

"Be careful of her..."

Encountering another cultivator being chased by a Demon Beast was no time to look for an easy score. The most likely outcome was that they would throw you under the bus, leaving you to the beast while they made their own escape.

Better you die than me.

"If you want to live, don’t move!"

Just as the two were debating whether to leave or to stand by and watch, a thought was suddenly transmitted from the woman.

Then, with a sudden shout, she clenched her fist. A sinister, engraved Ring-Headed Saber appeared in her hand, its blade pulsating with dense black light as she brought it down against the current. The Xianglong was a full two hundred zhang long, charging forward like a black torrent with the force to topple mountains and overturn seas.

And yet, under that single strike, it was like a colossal wave crashing into a reef. The beast was split in two on the spot, cleaved clean from head to tail.

BOOM!

Its massive body crashed to the ground, and blood instantly flooded the surroundings.

"A Body Cultivator!"

Meng Changtu’s expression changed, and he looked as if he were facing a powerful enemy.

’To be able to slay a Xianglong in one strike, her Cultivation Realm... it’s hard to estimate. But it’s clear that she alone possesses the power to flatten the Ye Clan.’

After felling the Xianglong, the Black Blade Golden Core waved her hand, and a strange pouch appeared before her. The gilded rope on it loosened, the mouth of the pouch gaped open, and without a second thought, it sucked in everything—the seawater, the beast’s corpse, all of it.

’A Spatial Magical Artifact, but not as refined as my Yellow Gourd,’ Chen Che mentally assessed, his eyebrow twitching.

Only after doing all this did she turn to look at Chen Che and Meng Changtu. Her expression was initially nonchalant, but when her gaze landed on Chen Che, her eyes focused, turning scrutinizing and inquisitive.

"Valley Master Chen of Jinyun Valley?"

"You know me?"

Chen Che couldn’t help but be puzzled.

"The name of a powerful cultivator is like the bright moon—its fame cannot be hidden."

The female cultivator lifted her head, revealing a beautiful face, and cupped her hands slightly. "I am Yu Yunko of the Star-Picking Sect."
