Sewing Corpses, Suppressing Ghost Disasters

Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.

From a young age, I ...

Chapter 769 Shallow Layer

Without the slightest hesitation, Yiyi and I immediately set off.

Having just experienced the overlapping memories of the dew-covered branches, Yiyi's pace seemed to quicken even further.

These dew-covered branches must have always been on the edge of a desolate sea, right?

This thing doesn't look like a sporty item at all.

Did they suddenly give the girl a shot of adrenaline?

I glanced at the girl every now and then; her little feet, constantly splashing in the water, looked incredibly lively.

Lightning Sword followed closely behind, flying like lightning.

Soon after, Lei Jijian also transmitted a message to me in my mind.

"Master, it feels quite comfortable to have the water flowing over my body after coming out. Not to mention my abilities, I feel much more comfortable now, washed by the water!"

I curled my lip and chuckled. "Isn't this the most basic thing?"

The current course is getting closer and closer to the deep sea.

Even without the scouring of the seawater, one can still feel the relief from the oppressive feeling from this direction.

Lei Jijian was speechless for a moment.

"Master, we should be almost at the shallow water area where there are people, right? I've been holding my breath like crazy on the way here!"

Like Lei Jijian, I haven't seen a single normal person in so long, which has made me a little frustrated.

To be honest, if you were to stay here for an extended period of time for quiet contemplation, it would be a good option.

However, if people stay here for a long time, I estimate that their language skills will deteriorate!

That kind of thing probably looks like a savage.

No, to be precise, they should be monkeys in the sea.

"At our current speed, we should be able to reach the shallow water area soon, right?"

Looking at Yiyi driving ahead, I slowly asked her.

But Yiyi gave me a completely opposite answer.

The vastness of this sea is completely different from what I imagined.

Even at this speed, it will still take us at least several hours to get there.

I couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

Goodness, I thought it was just an ordinary little well.

The Dead Sea area at the very beginning was already enough for me to see.

Now tell me, how many hours can you travel at an extremely high speed?

Seeing the confusion on my face, Yiyi explained very patiently.

At times like these, it's not about increasing speed, but about being completely at ease and making thorough preparations.

I was wondering the same thing, what kind of thorough preparation?

The girl then revealed an even more shocking piece of information to me.

If you soak in this water for about three hours, those scabies mites will come attracted by the smell!

Holy crap.

Upon hearing this news, I felt a chill run down my spine.

As if it had taken the wrong medicine, the lightning sword suddenly lurched backward.

Only three hours?

"That's roughly it. If we can't get close to the shallow layers within three hours, we might never reach it!"

Upon hearing Yiyi's words, I couldn't help but utter a curse word.

Holy crap, this is absolutely deadly.

Let alone three hours, even if we had a whole day, it would be difficult to manage in this unfamiliar state.

Then we'll be facing those disgusting bugs covered in patterns and drooling from their mouths again.

I started to reach for the mirror inside my backpack.

I took a quick look at what was inside.

Those beads!

I pondered that if I were to encounter a large number of scabies mites, these beads would be my only bargaining chip in fighting against them.

Last time, we accidentally ruptured their stomachs, so we were lucky.

What if we encounter a swarm of sea worms? I wonder if we'll survive.

At the same time, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief, thinking how fortunate I was to have a mirror.

Otherwise, where would we put all these hundreds of beads?

The mirror was slowly shimmering with light, and just then, I heard the girl's cry.

"Brother, we don't need to look at this anymore. I reckon the seashell didn't take us to very deep waters at first. Three hours should be enough."

The girl's voice was very soft, and I was taken aback.

Are you that confident?

Judging from the girl's behavior, she probably hadn't been to the Dragon Palace many times; it was just too secluded.

Furthermore, if the girl were very familiar with this place, she would surely know about the merchant's tricks, especially given the Dead Sea area.

Suddenly, the girl slowed down and abruptly moved her right hand towards her left wrist, as if she were studying something.

She secretly cast a spell, and a pale purple light appeared on the girl's delicate wrist.

As the light spread, it made the girl's face look rosy.

I didn't ask any further questions, but simply slowed down to match the girl's pace.

Soon, the girl stopped kneading and pulled a white wristband from his wrist.

"Brother, take this with you."

The girl smiled and handed me the wristband.

I was suddenly startled. Were they just preparing something for me?

"this…"

Without waiting for my consent, the girl splashed around in the water a few times and came to my side, tying the wristband to my arm near my wrist.

I examined the thing closely; it looked like a watch and a wristband at the same time, but it was made of a very soft material.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a silk scarf.

The girl explained to herself as she helped me tie it.

"This thing can greatly reduce your wear and tear when you're traveling."

Holy crap, there's this amazing stuff.

I was a little puzzled. When did this girl become so nice?

Before, whenever I acquired something, she was always the first to rush over to see if she could make a profit.

Now, however, she is proactively lending me her magical artifact.

Is there something fishy going on here?

Or is this thing used to seal me away?

The girl explained casually, "It's nothing precious, brother, you don't need to worry about it too much."

Then, the girl pushed off forward and led the way for me, standing about a body length in front of me.

I looked at the white wristband on my wrist and smiled slightly.

This person is actually quite nice.

Although it's a mass-produced product, I can definitely feel the lightness in my body.

When I kicked the water with my feet, I felt that the resistance became less.

So that's why she's so light and fast.

I followed closely behind, glancing at my white wristband every now and then.

And this thing has slowly become integrated with my wrist, and the white color has gradually faded.

This made my Thunderstrike Sword, which was right next to me, extremely tempted.

"Damn, Master, tell her to get me one too! This thing looks pretty good, really good."

Upon hearing Lei Jijian's words, I couldn't help but mentally grumble.

"This thing is incredibly rare! You want it? You want me to tie it to your sword hilt?"
