Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 1020 - 172: The Undersea Seal

After entering the Penglai Sea, the Abyss Tentacle Sunflower King sped up its procession.

The tentacle barrier of the Anemone King is quite special; through it, Yun Sheng can see the ocean outside, but the sea creatures outside cannot see Yun Sheng inside.

This made Yun Sheng feel like being behind a two-way mirror.

The Abyss Tentacle Sunflower kept diving down five to six thousand meters. At this depth in the deep sea, the sea monsters of the Penglai Sea had almost disappeared; at such depths, even the physically strongest Martial Artist could not reach it.

After entering the deep sea, the speed of the Abyss Tentacle Sunflower King slowed significantly; in this kind of sea area, there would be large-scale sea beasts appearing, even the Abyss Tentacle Sunflower King had to be cautious.

It summoned dozens of small Tentacle Sunflowers.

The small Tentacle Sunflowers spread out like flowers blooming in the sea, spreading out in all directions along the water currents, acting as sentinels for the Abyss Sea Anemone King’s progress.

"Master, if there’s still no discovery, we must return to the surface after half an hour, otherwise your body cannot withstand the pressure at the seabed," said the Abyss Tentacle Sunflower as it swam from the Volcanic Lake to the Penglai Sea, which took nearly two hours.

The air within the tentacles that Yun Sheng could breathe was running increasingly low.

Yun Sheng hesitated a bit; if she went deeper into the seabed, she might face the danger of suffocation if the air within the tentacle barrier of the Anemone King was insufficient.

But if she gave up now, she’d have to start all over again next time.

The time until the Dutian Summit was getting closer; she didn’t have much time to waste in the Demon Beast Forest.

Yun Sheng thought for a moment, sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes, and slowly engaged in Heavenly Human Meditation.

The azure seawater disappeared, and all around was pitch black.

Suddenly, Yun Sheng felt a magical wave at the seabed, about one thousand meters ahead.

The magical wave was deep and powerful, like a pulse.

That’s the place!

Yun Sheng was certain that the magic array sealing the volcanic crater by the first Summon Emperor was right there.

"Dive a bit further; I can feel a stronger magical wave a thousand meters below, it should be near the position of the ancient Volcanic Seal," Yun Sheng understood the Tentacle Sunflower King’s intent and decided that if nothing was discovered further, they would return to the sea, to think of a solution another day.

The Abyss Tentacle Sunflower King extended its hundreds of tentacles forcefully and a Water Arrow shot out from within it.

It quickly sank downwards; just then, a message came from the sentinels ahead.

"Master, the water current ahead is abnormal; a large sea beast is rapidly approaching in this direction, its target seems to be the same seabed area as ours," the Anemone King reported back to Yun Sheng.

Yun Sheng was shocked upon hearing this.

The location they were currently in was a definite deep-sea zone.

In such a zone, not even the fishermen from Penglai or eighth and ninth rank sea beasts could approach easily.

The ones that could operate in this region were only Holy Beasts or super sea creatures like the Anemone King.

After a brief shock, Yun Sheng quickly made a decision, "Anemone King, immediately disguise yourself as a regular anemone and wait for that super sea beast to arrive."

The Abyss Sea Anemone King obeyed Yun Sheng’s command, its tentacles shrank, and its speed slowed down as colorful anemone spots began to grow, leisurely swimming nearby.

To other sea creatures, it appeared as a very ordinary anemone, and no one would associate it with the terrifying Dark Magic Plants Abyss Tentacle Sunflower King.

After waiting for about 15 minutes, the water current ahead began to churn.

Through the transparent tentacle barrier of the anemone, Yun Sheng saw a fish swiftly swimming over. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

It was a large carnivorous fish resembling a small fortress, with bluish-gray skin and a crescent-shaped tail; its teeth were large, like the sharpest sawtooth, capable of crushing everything, and its head was inverted triangular.

This fish, with just its body, seemed to be three or four meters long, likely weighing at least six to seven hundred pounds.

"Master, that is Penglai’s most famous hunter, the Trident Shark King. Previously, when at sea, I also encountered this type of fish; it’s very troublesome, and we should avoid confronting it directly," the Abyss Sea Anemone King advised Yun Sheng not to act rashly, as it was still recovering after being injured by Ji Ru Mo’s Thunder God Break, despite the recovery from the Linglong Beast Tower, and because it also carried its master.

Just as Yun Sheng was about to make an evasive move, her eyes sharply focused on the shark king’s forehead.

Yun Sheng noticed an obvious summoning emblem on the prominent part of that shark’s forehead.

This Trident Shark King was clearly contracted by someone, who must be a powerful summoner.

"Anemone King, follow the Shark King and see what it’s doing heading to the seabed?" Yun Sheng quietly followed the Shark King with the Anemone King, going all the way down.

The Trident Shark King indeed lived up to its name as the overlord of the sea, swimming grandiosely without any obstacles, swiftly and directly diving into the seabed.

Beside it, a faint blue light was emitted.

It too took notice of its surroundings and paused briefly when noticing the Anemone King, but once confirmed as an ordinary anemone, the Trident Shark no longer paid any attention.

After diving yet another eight or nine hundred meters, a magic array appeared at the seabed.

The magic array was ancient; due to the long passage of time, the inscriptions on it had long faded to black and red.

However, the magical power from the array was still intact, and Yun Sheng could distinctly sense the powerful magic force emanating from within.

That was the Volcanic Seal left by the first Summon Emperor.

The Trident Shark King’s next actions astonished Yun Sheng even more.

Instead of recklessly approaching the magic array, the Shark King slowed down cautiously, moving around it with familiarity.

From its demeanor, it seemed as if it was already well acquainted with this area, as if it had visited here multiple times before.

Yun Sheng’s thoughts soon proved true.

The Trident Whale suddenly grew legs and feet, transforming into a fishman with a human body and shark head.

Only then did Yun Sheng realize that the Trident Shark wasn’t simply a sea creature but a form created after a summoner fused with their summoned beast.

Due to the inability to see its head, Yun Sheng didn’t know who that summoner was.

At this moment, the summoner raised their hand, and Yun Sheng saw a Summoning Ring on those slender fingers.

Seeing the ring’s emblem, Yun Sheng’s heart trembled.

That was the ring of the Summoning Court, and judging by the Demon Beast Soul Stone on the ring, the true identity of this mysterious fishman should be one of the Thirteen Great Summoners of the Summoning Court.
