Chapter 601 Chapter 601: Deep Sea 2
Huang Rongyu and Mu Jingshen exchanged a glance, about to jump into this boundless sea...?
After a moment of silence, Huang Rongyu helplessly spread her hands: "As things stand now, perhaps this sea is the only way forward for us."
Mu Jingshen nodded: "Alright. Rong Yu, your second spiritual root is the water spiritual root, so you are not afraid of water. Use a spell that will allow me and Xiao Fei to breathe freely underwater."
Just as Huang Rongyu was about to begin casting the spell, Ye Fei waved her hand and said, "No need."
She took out a small porcelain bottle from her storage ring and poured out three blue pills: "These are water-repelling pills, personally refined by me. Each of you will take one. After taking them, you will be able to breathe freely underwater, not be afraid of the cold of the seabed, and see everything. The effect will last for about three hours. If the situation changes after you go underwater, I will give you some more."
Mu Jingshen took the pill from her hand. The pill was small and cool to the touch. He couldn't help but smile and say, "Xiao Fei, your pill-refining skills are getting more and more exquisite. You can even refine the Water-Avoiding Pill."
After taking the pill, Ye Fei smiled upon hearing Mu Jingshen's words: "Thank you for your praise."
Huang Rongyu picked up the pill and swallowed it without hesitation: "Although I have a water spirit root, I am willing to take Xiao Fei's pill."
...
On the calm and desolate sea, several splashes of water could be heard.
The scenery at sea is monotonous, unlike on land where it's easy to find your way. The three of them fell into the water at the same time, navigating through reefs and schools of fish.
Huang Rongyu led the way, with Ye Fei and Mu Jingshen following behind him.
Since entering the water, Huang Rongyu had vaguely sensed a strange aura. She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was, but it felt somewhat familiar.
He looked back at the two people behind him, but their expressions were normal, and they didn't seem to have sensed anything unusual.
Is it only I who can feel it?
Huang Rongyu narrowed her eyes and continued swimming forward without making a sound.
Swimming past a huge pile of rocks, the strange aura drew ever closer—Huang Rongyu was certain that something was ahead.
At that moment, a wisp of spiritual energy emanated from the seawater, followed immediately by an explosion as loud as thunder!
Mu Jingshen placed one hand on the sword at his waist, his brows furrowing slightly: "There's a battle ahead!"
Huang Rongyu turned to Ye Fei and asked, "Want to go take a look?"
Ye Fei narrowed her beautiful eyes: "Alright, let's conceal our presence and approach slowly."
The three concealed their presence and slowly swam forward, then hid behind a rock about half a person's height.
They peeked out and observed their surroundings. Not far ahead, there were four figures. What they were facing was a serpentine spirit beast swimming at high speed!
"The explosion just now must have been caused by them dealing with that spirit beast," Mu Jingshen said.
Ye Fei didn't know much about spirit beasts. Besides, this spirit beast moved very fast, and even when she focused her gaze, she could only barely catch a glimpse of its form, not a complete picture. So she looked at Huang Rongyu and Mu Jingshen and asked, "Do you know what this spirit beast is?"
"I'll give it a try."
Huang Rongyu condensed water-based spiritual energy, drew two fingers in front of her eyes, and her eyes immediately shimmered with a watery blue.
Mu Jingshen thought for a moment and said, "Describe the appearance of the spirit beast in general terms, and perhaps I will know."
Huang Rongyu nodded. With the enhanced vision from the water-based spiritual energy, he could see the appearance of the spirit beast clearly: "It was dark blue all over, about three zhang long, resembling both a snake and a dragon, with a fan-shaped tail and three eyes."
Mu Jing pondered for a few seconds: "Three zhang long, and with three eyes... this should be a Ghost Shadow Water Dragon of divine beast level!"
