"Brother Tianming, congratulations, you have become stronger again!"

Hearing Ye Qingxue and Tianshui's congratulations, Lin Tianming also smiled.

"Qingxue, Teacher Tianshui, thank you for watching over me."

"Brother Tianming, can you accompany me to play again today? There are many fun places in Donghai City that we have not been to. Cultivation requires a balance between work and rest!"

Ye Qingxue took Lin Tianming's arm and looked at him expectantly.

Lin Tianming thought for a moment and said, "You came out early after three days of trials, and you and Teacher Tianshui have been waiting for me outside. I really should take some time to accompany you."

"Hehe, then it's settled. Let's set off now. This seaside city is pretty good!"

Ye Qingxue was overjoyed to get Lin Tianming's consent.

But just when she was about to take Lin Tianming out to play, Lin Tianming said to Tianshui: "Teacher Tianshui, come with us too!"

Tianshui was a little surprised. She didn't expect Lin Tianming to invite her to join him this time.

After a moment, she smiled gently: "You are so thoughtful, brother Tianming, you two kids can go out and play, you don't have to worry about me."

"Teacher Tianshui has been taking care of us all this time. You've been watching Qingxue and I attend the Sea King Festival, and you've been hosting a celebration banquet for us. You haven't had much rest. I think you need to relax, too. Why don't you go out and play with us?"

After Lin Tianming said this, Ye Qingxue, who originally just wanted to spend time alone with Lin Tianming, also felt that what he said made sense.

They have received so much care from Tianshui, and they can't always just enjoy themselves.

After thinking about it, Ye Qingxue also said: "Brother Tianming is right, Teacher Tianshui, you should go out and play with us this time!"

Faced with the invitation from Lin Tianming and Ye Qingxue, Tianshui hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

"Well, since you two kids are so thoughtful, I'll join you!"

While Lin Tianming, Ye Qingxue and Tianshui were enjoying the break after the temporary end of the Sea King Festival, in a secret place, a man wearing a dark robe of the Deep Sea Church had an extremely gloomy face.

"Damn it! During this period, my Deep Sea Church has lost two great generals in succession! The strongest Deep Blue High Priest, and the strongest Crimson High Priest, one died in the Shenwu City of Xiluo Domain, and the other died in the Donghai City of Jiuzhou!"

Seeing him like this, the other members of the Deep Sea Church in grey robes all looked terrified, fearing that they would become the target of his anger.

Many members of the Deep Sea Church were once killed because he was in a bad mood and became his emotional venting toys.

One of the Deep Sea Church members plucked up his courage and reminded him in a trembling voice.

"High Priest Deep Black, please calm down and don't get yourself hurt by being angry. Our Deep Sea Church still needs you to lead it!"

The Dark High Priest glanced at the Deep Sea Church member who reminded him, and immediately made that person break out in a cold sweat.

After a moment, the Dark High Priest asked coldly, "What about the news I asked you to investigate?"

"Replying to the High Priest Deep Black, the person who killed the High Priest Deep Red is most likely a young man named Lin Tianming. He is very famous in Jiuzhou and is said to be the best first-year student in all the advanced awakening academies in Jiuzhou!"

"What an idiot Crimson! A top awakener actually died at the hands of a kid who had only awakened for less than a year!"

The Deep Black High Priest angrily cursed the already dead Crimson High Priest.

If he knew that the strongest Deep Blue High Priest of their Deep Sea Church also died at the hands of Lin Tianming, I wonder how he would feel.

After a moment, the Deep Black High Priest's eyes darkened: "No, I have to go to Kyushu myself! If the treasure hidden in the Sea King Festival can be found, the future of our Deep Sea Church will have unlimited possibilities!"

Having said that, the High Priest Deep Black was about to set off for Kyushu Donghai City.

At this time, a man wearing the same Deep Sea Church clothing, but with a darker grey robe than the ordinary members, walked out from the shadows.

"You can't go to Jiuzhou now, Shenhei, we have more important things to do in Beiyin Territory!"

After being reminded by the man in the dark grey robe, the High Priest of Darkness calmed down a lot.

"Deep Gray, are we going to miss that crucial treasure?"

"Originally, Shen Hong didn't hold much hope when he went to look for it this time. He just wanted to try his luck. He failed and died tragically in Jiuzhou. We can't send someone at the high priest level at this critical juncture to look for something that can only be obtained by luck.

And the information sent back said that "He" has gone from Shenwu City in Xiluo Territory to Donghai City in Jiuzhou. I guess "He" wants to take back what belongs to him. We should not get involved."

Under the persuasion of the Deep Gray High Priest, the Deep Black High Priest thought of the Gray Sea Master worshipped by their Deep Sea Church, and he gave up completely.

The Crimson High Priest went looking for the treasure, actually he wanted to find it for the strange man.

Now that the strange man has appeared in Donghai City, Jiuzhou, there is no need for them to take action.

"Well then, have you communicated with the people from the Yellow Church?"

When talking about the communication with the Yellow Church, the Dark Gray High Priest showed a grim smile.

“We have already communicated with them. I have even communicated with the people from the Judgment Church. Only the people from the Astrologers Association have not responded to us.

However, with the three of us joining forces, and the assistance provided by the monsters in the disaster areas around the Northern Yin Territory, we will be able to infiltrate almost everything by the time midsummer comes. By then, no one will be able to stop the gates of hell from opening wide!"

After hearing what the Dark Gray High Priest said, the Dark Black High Priest was filled with demonic energy that could drive him insane.

…

The next day, the third round of the Poseidon Festival was held on the coastline.

After the first two rounds of screening, there were less than a hundred people left to participate in the festival.

The person presiding over the ceremony began on time to introduce the content of the third round of trials to those participating in the third round of the Sea King Festival.

“First of all, congratulations to everyone present for reaching the top of the Sea King Tower and passing the Coral Psychedelic Array. You have successfully advanced to the third round of the Sea King Festival.

The third round of the Poseidon Festival requires you to go through the portal created by the Poseidon and head to a Dragon Palace ruin somewhere on the seabed. Try to collect as many ocean crystals as possible from the ruins. The time limit is seven days.

After seven days, you who are in the Dragon Palace will be teleported back here by the Sea King, and your reward will be the ocean crystals you collected.

The person who collects the most ocean crystals will be counted on site and will be the first place in the third round of the Sea King Festival. He or she will also receive an additional top-level water-attribute weapon as a reward.

The top 20 will advance to the fourth and final round of the Poseidon Festival.

Do you have any questions? If you have any, it’s best to ask them now, otherwise you will be teleported to the Dragon Palace and you will have no chance to answer them. "

Soon, someone shouted, "Teacher, if we encounter other people while collecting ocean crystals in the Dragon Palace, can we steal the ocean crystals they have collected?"

The person presiding over the ceremony replied, "Okay, but remember not to kill us. You are all the vital force for the future of Kyushu. Just stop when you are done."

After answering, the person presiding over the ceremony asked, "Does anyone have any other questions?"

Lin Tianming and Ye Qingxue stood together, and he didn't have anything to ask.

Noticing Lianghua smiling and waving at him not far away, Lin Tianming also responded to her politely.

The person presiding over the ceremony on the stage saw that no one asked any more questions, so he made a sound loud enough to echo throughout the nearby sea.

"Dear Kyushu Sea Guardian, these children are ready, you can open the portal!"

As the person presiding over the ceremony called out, the beautiful and ethereal response of the Sea King was heard from the depths of the sea.

The next moment, a gate of clear blue sea water appeared on the coastline, reflecting the beautiful Dragon Palace.

All those who participated in the Sea King Festival were also blessed by the power of the Sea King.

The person presiding over the ceremony also explained to Lin Tianming and the others: "This is the power of the Sea King, which can help you breathe freely in the seabed and communicate with each other.

Now that you have been blessed by the power of the Sea King, you can go through the portal to the Undersea Dragon Palace!"

As the person presiding over the ceremony made this announcement, all the people attending the ceremony showed excitement and quickly ran towards the portal on the coast.

Watching the group of people rushing to pass through the portal, Ye Qingxue took Lin Tianming's arm and said sweetly: "Brother Tianming, let's go too!"

Lianghua also came closer and said with a smile: "Qingxue, Mingjun, I'll go with you."

"Take me with you, Brother Tianming!"

Meng Xiyue’s elder brother Meng Jiang also ran over, wanting to take advantage of Lin Tianming’s Undersea Dragon Palace Ruins convoy.

Their world of two was suddenly disturbed by someone, and one of the people involved was Lianghua, whom she didn't like very much. Ye Qingxue's face suddenly became puffed up.

Lin Tianming didn't mind them joining in: "Then let's go together."

Meng Jiang was frightened by Ye Qingxue's fierce eyes, but when he saw Lin Tianming agreed, he still smiled and said, "Hehe, Brother Tianming is still a good person!"

In this way, Lin Tianming and the other three walked towards the portal slowly.

[Humph! If I let you follow me now, you will still be randomly separated when you go in later! ]

[I will be smarter this time. I will look for Brother Tianming first when I go in! I will never let Lianghua, this bad woman, be alone with Brother Tianming again! ]

Lin Tianming was somewhat surprised to hear Ye Qingxue's inner voice saying that they would be randomly teleported again when they entered.

Although it was an accident, there was no problem for Lin Tianming to collect ocean crystals by himself.

Thinking of this, he stepped into the portal accompanied by Ye Qingxue and the other two.

Lin Tianming only felt a dizziness in his brain. When he came to his senses again, the coastline scenery around him turned into the ruins of the Dragon Palace under the sea.

He originally thought that the ruins of the Dragon Palace would be very dark at the bottom of the sea, but who would have thought that it was unusually bright and dreamy here.

Just like the beautiful Dragon Palace against the backdrop of the portal, this place doesn't look like some dilapidated underwater ruins at all.

And there was something even more incredible to Lin Tianming.

Everything here is full of mechanical texture, just like the mechanical ascension buildings that he and Alice saw in the mechanical secret realm.

The beautiful and dreamy Crystal Dragon Palace, with its various sophisticated mechanical structures, is like an underwater mechanical Dragon Palace that has achieved mechanical ascension.

This place...could it be the remains of a mechanical ascension civilization similar to the Mechanical Secret Realm? (End of this chapter)
