Chapter 266 Deep Sea Crisis
266
Tang Yue took a deep breath and sped up her dive again. Her eyes were firm and her goal was clear, as if nothing could stop her from moving forward.
As soon as Tang Yue entered the deep sea, she felt a powerful pressure coming towards her, as if countless invisible hands were trying to crush her. This pressure was even more terrifying than she had imagined. Every meter she dived required tremendous courage.
"I didn't expect the water pressure in the deep sea to be so strong." Tang Yue gritted her teeth, circulated her spiritual power to form a solid shield, and barely resisted the impact of the water pressure.
Besides the water pressure, darkness was another major challenge Tang Yue faced. In the deep sea, there was almost no light, and the surroundings were pitch black, so dark that you couldn't even see your hand in front of you.
Tang Yue instinctively sent out her consciousness to sense her surroundings, but all she felt was endless darkness, which made her move cautiously.
"This won't do. We must find a way to provide lighting." Tang Yue frowned and thought for a moment. There was no lighting in her space.
After thinking for a while, Tang Yue curled the corners of her mouth.
Tang Yue used her spiritual power to prop up a round spiritual shield on her hand. A small flame shot up from her finger, illuminating a small area around her. In the light of the flame, Tang Yue saw some strange deep-sea creatures, their shapes varied, some of them even flashing with mysterious fluorescence.
However, not all deep-sea creatures were so friendly. Tang Yue had barely swam forward when she sensed a dangerous aura. Cautiously, she stopped and looked around, only to see a school of strangely shaped fish, their maws gaping, charging towards her.
These fish's eyes flash with ferocity and their teeth are extremely sharp, and you can tell at a glance that they are not to be trifled with.
"Oh! Are you bullying me, an outsider?" Tang Yue snorted coldly, and a spiritual sword quickly condensed in his hand.
She flashed, charging at the school of fish like a bolt of lightning. As she swung her sword, spiritual energy overflowed, instantly severing several fish in two. Seeing this, the other fish, far from retreating, pounced even more frantically.
Tang Yue engaged in a fierce battle with the fish. Her spiritual sword gleamed coldly in the darkness, and each swing could take the lives of several fish.
But the fish were too numerous, and Tang Yue felt that this was not a solution. Her time was very precious. The consumption was also alarming.
Moreover, during the battle, she also needs to pay attention to the changes in the surrounding water pressure and currents to avoid being affected by them.
Tang Yue immediately became invisible, accelerated sharply, and swam away. In a short while, she successfully escaped the pursuit of the school of fish. In her previous life, Tang Yue had no chance to experience the sea, so now everything she saw in the sea was new to her.
However, she had sufficient concentration to not be stopped by what was before her, and continued to move forward in the direction she sensed. At this moment, she suddenly felt a strong current rushing past her. The force of this current was so strong that Tang Yue had no time to dodge and was instantly swept into it.
Under the impact of the current, Tang Yue's body rolled in the water like a fallen leaf. Her spiritual shield began to crack under the impact of the current. Tang Yue was shocked. The power of nature was indeed terrifying.
If she couldn't get rid of the current quickly, she would be carried to a deeper depth, where the situation would become even more dangerous. She thought of her family waiting for her on the South Island.
"I must find a way to get rid of it!" Tang Yue gritted her teeth and concentrated all her spiritual power, trying to resist the force of the current. She used all her spiritual power to chop forward, trying to open a channel in the current.
However, the power of the ocean current was so strong that Tang Yue's efforts did not seem to have much effect.
After that blow, Tang Yue's spiritual power was almost completely depleted, and her face turned even paler. This was the first time she had encountered a problem she couldn't solve since she came to this world.
Her spiritual energy was about to be exhausted. She hadn't expected that the spiritual energy of the Golden Core Stage could be so unstoppable. She was still too arrogant and should have been more careful. If she hadn't come down, Tang Yue's lips curled up.
No, she really wanted that thing. That feeling was still there, Tang Yue thought, the spiritual power shield was about to disappear, without the supply of spiritual power, she would be drowned.
Death, the word seemed so far away to Tang Yue. Yet, it was now so palpable. Tang Yue's mind flashed back to every detail of her life with Tang Shengkai and his family since she had traveled through time.
Alas, she hadn't helped them deal with the Jiushan family yet. If she died, what would happen to her parents? If they couldn't find her, a crystal in the corner of Tang Yue's eyes merged with the sea water.
Just when she felt desperate, she suddenly discovered that a small vortex seemed to have appeared in the ocean current. Moreover, a lot of spiritual energy emerged from the vortex.
Every cell in Tang Yue's body began to stir. Could this be a turning point? She was already in dire straits. Since she couldn't escape, she might as well enter the vortex and see. She was still a short distance from the vortex, and after absorbing a little spiritual energy, Tang Yue felt her strength return a little.
She swam with all her might towards the vortex. As she neared it, Tang Yue was delighted. Such a rich spiritual energy. She allowed the vortex to engulf her, and was sucked into it.
Tang Yue couldn't resist the power of the vortex. If she continued to resist, her body would be torn into pieces. The severe pain all over her body reminded Tang Yue that she couldn't continue to resist.
Tang Yue gritted her teeth, then completely relaxed her body, imagining herself as a drop of water in a vortex, merging with it. Since she couldn't resist, she might as well try to blend in. Unexpectedly, this feeling was quite good. After relaxing, her body continued to absorb the spiritual energy in the vortex, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
In this state of complete relaxation, Tang Yue felt as if she had entered a whole new world. She was a drop of water, capable of transforming into different forms. She constantly shifted between the visible and invisible. In this moment, Tang Yue seemed to understand the meaning of selflessness and nothingness.
The surrounding spiritual energy madly poured into Tang Yue's body, and she was like a shrunken sponge constantly absorbing water. When she opened her eyes again, there were no more currents or whirlpools around her. The surroundings were very quiet. Except for the endless blackness, the water here seemed to be still.
Tang Yue no longer needed to maintain her spiritual shield. It was as if she were a drop of water in this vast ocean, freely moving through it. Her eyes couldn't see, but her consciousness could sense some of the situation. The range wasn't large, but Tang Yue felt it was sufficient.
Without bothering to understand the changes in her body, Tang Yue followed the invisible pull and prepared to continue moving towards the location of the mysterious material. She had a feeling that they were not far away.
Tang Yue swam cautiously, tightly gripping her spiritual sword, constantly alert to the surroundings. Suddenly, she felt a powerful force coming from below. Before she could react, a huge figure suddenly emerged from the darkness and enveloped her.
Tang Yue took a closer look and saw it was a massive deep-sea octopus. It was over ten meters long, its eight thick tentacles dancing freely in the water like a giant python. These tentacles were covered in dense suction cups, emitting a chilling aura.
"Humph, just in time!" Tang Yue was not afraid at all, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. It really wasn't a good feeling to be alone in the sea, but having a big guy to keep her company was not bad.
However, the big guy obviously didn't think so, and directly waved his tentacles towards Tang Yue. Tang Yue thought of the tigers and leopards in the space. After all, she had never raised any animals from the sea.
How about carving out a piece of land in the space and pumping some seawater in? This guy is quite big, and if she wants to eat him, cutting off one of his legs should be enough for quite a few people.
Tang Yue didn't attack directly, instead moving swiftly between the octopus's tentacles. She wanted to see just how big it was. However, the octopus was clearly extremely cunning, constantly changing its attack patterns. Thinking Tang Yue was attacking her, it blocked all of her escape routes.
