Seeing that Jiang Yuan remained silent, the lackeys surrounded him to demonstrate their loyalty.
"Are there any humanoid creatures here?" Jiang Yuan asked bluntly. He couldn't possibly keep grinding away here like he had on the eighteenth floor.
Looking for someone?
A siren with three pairs of eyes bared its teeth at him, "I think you're asking for death!"
After saying that, the sea monster charged at Jiang Yuan. Without the restraints of the Nine Netherworlds of the Sea, the prisoners here were all unruly and arrogant. Just like the eighteenth level of the Abyss of Imprisonment before Jiang Yuan had tortured them, countless people looked down on Jiang Yuan.
"It seems the saying 'truth lies in the fist' is true!"
Jiang Yuan only has forty minutes left, and within those forty minutes he needs to subdue these rebellious sea creatures.
"The first door—open."
"The second gate—Rest."
"The third gate—Life."
As soon as the three gates opened, Jiang Yuan pounced on the sea creatures like a tiger, while the boundless sea was also gathering its strength.
The battles underwater constantly stimulated his physical body. Originally, his ancient martial arts cultivation had reached the seventh level, but because he had not yet obtained the secret of the Nine Arts of Humanity, he had not been able to reach the seventh level of ancient martial arts. However, he could not wait any longer for the secret of life to arrive. Now he needed a stronger physical body.
"war!"
Pure physical strength erupts from the seabed, making it the most terrifying sea monster. Even the whale and shark races, known for their physical strength, cannot compare to it. In fact, only the most mysterious Kun race among the sea creatures has the potential to rival it.
The battle was a complete one-sided crushing defeat. No sea creature could withstand the power of Jiang Yuan's punch. The entire seventeenth floor was filled with wails of agony, but Jiang Yuan did not stop because he had not yet obtained the answer he wanted.
As for killing, Jiang Yuan had considered it, but not now, because he wasn't entirely confident he could escape the prison.
"Mermaids, aren't you being a bit too arrogant!"
The cold, sharp voice echoed in the sea, and the prisoners surrounding Jiang Yuan retreated, each with a hint of fear on their faces.
In the space they had retreated, a half-transformed great white shark stood there, its fierce gaze seemingly ready to devour anyone who might approach it.
Bloodthirsty Shark, Three-Star Imperial Bloodline (God Shark Bloodline).
Power type, attributes: water, metal.
Strength: Eighth stage of the Divine Transformation Realm; Talents: Bite of the Mad Shark, Top-Tier Duel.
An absolutely formidable opponent—that's Jiang Yuan's assessment of the Bloodthirsty Shark.
Although he had seen imperial veins in the Prison Abyss, three-star imperial veins were extremely rare. Generally, those who could obtain imperial veins were people of high status in the sea race, and such beings were rarely thrown into the Prison Abyss. Therefore, the Bloodthirsty Shark must have committed a crime that his family could not protect, otherwise he would not have appeared here.
That's why an opponent like the Bloodthirsty Shark is definitely not an ordinary person.
"Mermaid brat, the last time I bit a mermaid to death was a hundred years ago. I never thought a mermaid would dare to appear in front of me, Duru, today." The Bloodthirsty Shark stared intently at Jiang Yuan, as if he were looking at a delicious dish.
"You must be the overlord of this floor!" Jiang Yuan raised his head and looked at the behemoth in front of him with a fighting spirit.
In terms of size, the Bloodthirsty Shark was dozens of times larger than him. In terms of cultivation level, the opponent still completely overwhelmed him.
However, when it comes to fighting spirit, Jiang Yuan is confident that he will not lose to anyone.
“That’s right, your provocation today will be the biggest mistake of your life.” Duru stared with bloodshot eyes as if he wanted to bite off a piece of Jiang Yuan’s flesh.
After saying that, Duru's muscles became ferocious and terrifying, and then he attacked without saying a word.
Jiang Yuan glanced around. This time, Suo Mo did not appear, which meant that he could release his power appropriately. After all, in this deep sea, no one knew who Jiang Yuan was.
"If that's the case, then let's fight!"
"Seven shackles, open."
With the physical body completely unsealed, wave after wave of power followed.
The power of ancient martial arts is in the light, while the physical universe is in the dark; these two abilities perfectly propelled Jiang Yuan's body to its peak.
Dulu launched a series of unpretentious attacks at Jiang Yuan, who responded with his own fists. This level of combat was too much for even a Divine Realm body to handle, so Jiang Yuan could only use his Starry Sky Glass-transformed right arm to exchange blows.
The entire seventeenth floor fell completely silent during the battle. The power that erupted was enough to drive them to despair. Every punch carried immense force, and the waves it generated could easily destroy underwater reefs. This was a top-tier duel between physical cultivators; the weak were not qualified to participate.
