One escaped, while the other pursued.
The boundless ocean is magnificent and seems terrifying enough, but few know that the most terrifying thing lies beneath it—its depth and darkness push the limits of human imagination in terms of fear.
But it is also the most beautiful, with seven colors swaying.
Fang Zong had no mood to appreciate this beauty. He closed his eyes and felt the clear and distinct pull in his mind.
He created a magical artifact called the Soul-Hooking Rope, a treasure similar to those used in the legendary underworld to snatch souls. However, he was not yet capable of making something that was particularly powerful, and only produced a half-finished product.
To put it simply, it's a disposable item.
Ninth Sister exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? The Sea King didn't run towards the Japanese islands, but headed towards the trench."
Fang Zong curled his lip: "I don't care where he runs to! I have to kill him, otherwise I'll have wasted my ten blue iron crystals!"
The Soul-Hooking Rope was originally intended to be used to deal with Cleopatra and get revenge, but Cleopatra was unlucky enough to run into it, not only did she run into it, but she also ran into it at sea.
Cleopatra couldn't get him to use the Soul-Snatching Rope, but Aquaman Arthur...
Fang Zong suddenly opened his eyes and laughed loudly, "Gotcha!"
Hundreds of meters ahead, in that deep, long trench, Arthur was suddenly grabbed by the neck by something, and before he could react, he spat out his throat.
He suddenly exerted force, tearing apart the invisible thing that was hooking his neck, but because his throat bone was crushed and spat out, he couldn't even shout a curse.
It made two "woo-woo" sounds, and countless water droplets, resembling butterflies, surged up around it.
"Sizzle!"
With a sudden sound, Arthur looked down in surprise and found his lower body drifting away with the ocean current.
The remaining upper body, like a jar, continuously poured out the spleen, intestines, stomach, and finally the heart...
No! My heart!
Arthur hurriedly reached out to grab it, but his only hand, along with his heart, was pierced through from both ends by a sharp knife.
【No……】
With only a thought left, Arthur turned his head, not looking at Fang Zong, but at a huge cave in the rock wall of the trench.
His eyes were full of anticipation.
The flame of hope, however, began to dim more and more...
"Bingo, perfect ending!" Fang Zong floated with the current in the deep sea.
Having reached a depth of several thousand meters, the immense water pressure was so great that even with the protection of a water-escape technique like the Water Oriole, Fang Zong felt immense pressure, a tightness in his chest, and difficulty breathing.
Only the beautiful scenery before him made him feel relaxed and happy, ignoring his uncomfortable feelings.
The rock walls of the trenches on both sides are covered with corals, which are colorful and have a lustrous sheen, making them particularly beautiful.
Below lies a deep trench, with a blurry, spreading black shadow resembling the gaping maw of the most terrifying beast—dangerous yet exquisitely beautiful.
The most beautiful thing, of course, is Arthur's corpse.
Fang Zong guarded Arthur's body and discovered that a blurry shadow was appearing on Arthur's body, indicating that his soul had left his body.
He expected Arthur to become a ghost, but discovered that Arthur's soul had just left his body when it was crushed into pieces by the immense water pressure...
"So...the benefits are gone?"
"I risked my life for you, and you didn't give me a single benefit?"
Fang Zong was a little stunned. He wanted to chop Arthur's body into pieces, but he thought that death is the greatest thing. After thinking for a moment, he dragged Arthur's body towards the huge cave next to him.
The cave was on the cliff face of the trench, and it looked terrifying, but such a place was at most the habitat of large sea octopuses or whale sharks. He didn't care about these 'cute little animals'. It was just that Arthur looked this way as he died, so let Arthur rest in peace here.
Its figure floated past, and all that could be seen was pitch black.
Fang Zong threw Arthur's body down, turned to leave, but suddenly paused, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of pure blue flame.
Bathed in light, it instantly became magnificent and resplendent!
gold!
It's all gold!
Right at the entrance of the cave, there was a large wooden ship. The wooden hull and the dilapidated edges of the cabin were covered with glittering gold!
One by one, piece by piece,
At first glance, I wonder how many tons it contains!
Is Fang Zong rich?
He was quite wealthy, never lacking food or drink. With his extravagant nature, he would reward people he liked with money and monsters he liked with elixirs, and he never seemed to lack pocket money.
but……
They're completely different!
gold!
It's all gold!
It was dazzling, golden, and all you could see was gold. The gold and water were interspersed, shimmering and sparkling. Even Fang Zong couldn't help but feel numb all over, and his blood was surging wildly in his veins.
"Whoosh!" Suddenly, a huge tentacle burst through the water.
Fang Zong subconsciously looked in that direction, his eyes turning vertical, his pupils like those of a cold-blooded animal.
The water was torn apart, and the tentacles were shattered.
Animal blood seeped into this seabed, yet a pressure even more terrifying than its power shook the area within hundreds of meters!
"Ding ding ding!" A crisp sound rang out, sounding quite urgent.
Fang Zong turned the firelight up a bit and discovered that behind the rotten wooden ship, there was a giant octopus that, if it extended its tentacles, would be at least several hundred meters in diameter.
The giant octopus stared at him pitifully, as if it had just gained sentience and couldn't speak yet. Its eyes, bigger than his whole body, were jet black and begged him for mercy with a 'ding ding ding' sound.
"Help me get it up there?" Fang Zong pointed to the entire ship full of gold.
The giant octopus quickly folded its tentacles into a ball, tightly coiling around the golden ship.
