Invincible Soul Emperor

"Sir, whatever you say, I will certainly relay it for you!" Zheng Xiao was quite excited, his eyes ablaze with hope.

Xue Wei said calmly, "Just tell Wu Chang that if they truly have sincerity, let the Saint Heir come see me personally. Otherwise, everything is off the table."

Zheng Xiao didn’t understand what he meant, but he still carefully memorized the sentence.

"Then, sir, when can my family and I finally leave this place?" Zheng Xiao asked, his eyes wide open.

Xue Wei raised his hand: "Be patient, when the time is right, you will naturally leave."

After saying this, Xue Wei walked out without looking back.

This remark was like a reassurance for Zheng Xiao, who looked at his departing figure with firmness in his eyes.

Meanwhile, within the Secret Realm.

Xue Feng found two elixirs and handed them to Xiao Xiao.

These elixirs could ensure they could freely breathe underwater.

The two had been wandering underwater for a long time.

The scenery below was very harmonious, with shrimp soldiers and crab generals occasionally emerging, but the two didn’t take them seriously.

In this deep seabed, the scenery was dreamlike and fantastical, as though entering an isolated Immortal Realm. Crystal-clear coral shimmered with brilliant light in the dimness, colorful fish swam like spirits between corals, creating melodious bell-like sounds. Seaweed danced gently with the water flow, like green silk, weaving sheets of fantastical curtains.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng were deeply captivated by this magnificent scene, their hearts filled with indescribable awe.

They gazed at this marvelous view, as though even time had stood still.

This was a sight they had never seen before.

Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but reach out to touch the crystalline coral; its cool touch brought a strange tranquility. Meanwhile, Xue Feng closed his eyes, feeling the mysterious aura around, as if hearing an ancient call.

However, this tranquility did not last long. Suddenly, the seabed’s light began to fluctuate violently, and the surrounding water currents became chaotic. Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng alertly raised their heads and saw, in the distant seabed abyss, darkness rapidly spreading, as if some ancient and malevolent force was awakening.

A low and distant chanting voice came from the darkness, seemingly from an ancient abyss, chilling the bones. Immediately, a huge figure slowly emerged; it was a massive Sea Dragon, covered entirely in black scales, its eyes blazing like fire. Its appearance instantly plunged the whole seabed into panic; fish scattered in all directions, seaweed ceased its dance, seemingly suppressed by an invisible force.

The Sea Dragon did not directly attack but swept past them, stirring a strong current, raising sand and coral fragments from the seabed. Its massive figure appeared particularly sinister and terrifying in the dim seawater, and the surrounding water pressure suddenly increased, making one feel a suffocating oppression.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng immediately became alert, tightly gripping their weapons, their gaze fixed on every move of the Sea Dragon. They knew that the appearance of this Sea Dragon was no accident and must be hiding some dangerous scheme.

"Be careful, it seems to be looking for something," Xue Feng cautiously reminded.

His eyes were keen like a falcon, closely following the Sea Dragon’s movements.

Xiao Xiao nodded, her inner vigilance never daring to slacken. She watched the actions of the Sea Dragon carefully and noticed that it was slowly spiraling, as if sensing the presence of some power.

Suddenly, a thought flashed in her mind: "Could the Sea Dragon be stretching lazily?"

The Sea Dragon showed no hostility; it swam to the distance.

Like stretching lazily, it extended its massive body, stirring up a fierce storm.

Without waiting for Xiao Xiao to speak.

The Sea Dragon slowly swam away into the distance.

It eventually disappeared into the deep seabed, hiding like an ephemeral entity. Its departure restored tranquility to the seabed, and the water currents gradually calmed down, returning to their usual peace.

Xiao Xiao and Xue Feng exchanged a glance, filled with doubt and alertness in their hearts. Although the Sea Dragon did not pose a direct threat to them, its sudden appearance and disappearance brought many mysteries.

They understood that there might be more unknown dangers and secrets hidden in this seabed, and they must remain vigilant at all times.

"I feel this seabed is more dangerous than the previous desert. Which direction should we go next?"

Xiao Xiao voiced out.

Xue Feng looked around, striving to recall the knowledge in his mind.

Suddenly, he thought of something.

"I think I remember, we must find the Thousand-Year Elder Gui to ask for directions!"

"The Thousand-Year Elder Gui? Where is that Thousand-Year Elder Gui?" Xiao Xiao asked, full of doubt.

Xue Feng slowly said, "I remember it’s in the most prominent place on the seabed, but this place is so vast, every direction seems prominent..."

As the two were at a loss, suddenly a series of lights flashed in the distance.

"That place is flashing, let’s go over there and take a look!" Xiao Xiao pointed to the direction of the light.

Xue Feng nodded, following Xiao Xiao as they swam over.

However, when they swam over, they only found flashing shells.

"No, if this continues, it’ll be dark soon. Once it’s dark, we won’t see anything, we must hurry."

They weaved through the blue seawater, constantly searching every coral thicket and hidden corner between the seabed rocks.

Time seemed to slow its pace in this boundless watery world; they continuously explored and inquired of other marine creatures.

Finally, as they swam past a huge coral reef, a vast and leisurely figure suddenly appeared before their eyes. It was the Thousand-Year Elder Gui, peacefully floating in the water, seemingly observing the whole seabed world.

The appearance of the Thousand-Year Elder Gui was awe-inspiring; clad in an ancient and substantial scale armor, its scales shimmered with a faint blue light, as if embedded with natural gemstones. These scales gently rubbed against the Old Turtle’s body with its slow movements, emitting a deep and rhythmic sound, like an ancient sea song.

The Old Turtle’s form was colossal and ancient, seeming to carry the wisdom and experience of countless ages. Its head was cracked with strength, its eyes deep and clear, as if able to see into the depths of people’s hearts. Its long neck moved freely in the water, occasionally surfacing, then diving back into the peaceful depths of the ocean.

The Old Turtle’s back was covered with seaweed and small corals, these creatures seemingly seeking shelter and habitat on its body by instinct.

Under the sunlight penetrating the sea, the Old Turtle’s exterior appeared even more magnificent and mysterious.

"Found it! Xue Feng! Over here! Over here!"

Upon seeing the Thousand-Year Elder Gui, Zheng Xiao shouted excitedly.
