The Mermaid King smiled calmly, the gloom in his eyes slowly fading away, and said, "If you can seal the underwater volcano again, I will take you to the Mermaid Tomb!"
As for whether she could get the mermaid pearl, she had no control over it. After all, anyone who was not a mermaid in the mermaid tomb would definitely be killed by the divine beast.
So what if he was the Lord of the Underworld? He would become food for the divine beast.
Ming Ye's eyes were solemn as he said, "The Mermaid Emperor really has a good plan."
Ming Ye knew in his heart that it was not easy to enter the Mermaid Tomb, but apart from the Mermaid King, they could not rely on anyone else.
Jiuxi raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the Mermaid Emperor calmly, a cold look flashing across his brows. He said, "If the Mermaid Emperor breaks his promise, don't blame the Corpse King for slaughtering your Mermaids."
The Mermaid King trembled for a moment, but still responded with "OK".
After reaching an agreement, the three of them continued to move towards the underwater volcano. Because the Mermaid King was indeed important, and to prevent the water temperature from scalding the Mermaid King, Jiuxi had to weave a protective barrier for him.
Along the way, sea sharks and sea fish were fleeing in a hurry. Jiuxi could even clearly see the marks on the smooth skin of the sea shark. It must be that the lava had begun to erupt. The sea fish that did not have time to escape had become charred grilled fish, and some must have turned into water vapor.
Jiuxi and Mingye stopped, watching the intermittent eruption of lava. Red magma flowed from the crater, sweeping away the slumbering fish, leaving only a charred grey. The temperature here was even higher; even with the protective barrier, their skin could still feel the heat. The Shark King retreated in the direction they had come from, grinning triumphantly, "I will be waiting for you two in the palace!"
Jiuxi tried to freeze the magma by performing magic tricks, but every time the magma froze into icicles, more magma would flow out from behind and the ice flowers would soon be washed away by the magma.
This underwater volcano has been sealed for too long, and the lava accumulated for two thousand years is coming in with great force. This time, if the volcano erupts, no sea creature will be spared. No wonder the Mermaid King wants to use the Mermaid Pearl as a bargaining chip.
"If it can't be sealed, then destroy it all." Ming Ye said arrogantly.
Jiuxi looked at the constantly flowing lava, with volcanic debris flying all before his eyes. He heard a low roar in his ears, but the roar was quickly drowned out by the vibration of the lava. Jiuxi tugged at Mingye's sleeve. Mingye looked at him with a far-reaching gaze and said, "There is something in that volcano."
As they spoke, the two of them jumped into the volcano together. Originally, they could use the sea water outside to wash away the scorching heat, but now they were in close contact with the magma, as if their hair was about to be burned. At this time, the protective barrier had already been broken by the magma. If it weren't for Ming Ye protecting her, she would have been swallowed by the magma by now.
Mingye clutched her hand tightly, his eyes bloodshot and his nails growing thick. He gazed down at the lava at the base of the volcano from above. The lava seemed to have eyes, constantly gushing towards them. Mingye dodged her repeatedly, saying anxiously, "It takes a five-hundred-year slumber to bring about these repeated lava eruptions. This monster has been sealed for over two thousand years, and now should be at its most violent."
One thread after another shuttled through his mind, and the clues gradually became clear, but he really didn't know what the monster growing in the lava was.
The roar of the lava echoed in her ears. She couldn't hear Mingye's words at all, so she could only shout, "The King can't hear me."
Ming Ye suddenly turned around and smiled at her, saying, "Jing Zhi, wait for me."
