Chapter 986: Chapter 104: Divine Artifact for Diving

Deep Sea Head Hunting Whale is a mutant sea beast, its appearance is somewhere between a whale and a shark.

It’s much smaller than the Blue Demon Whale that Yue Jinghua and the others took to the Boundary Sea earlier, but its temperament is much more ferocious than that of ordinary whales, closer to a shark.

Yue Jinghua and Jue Xin, riding the Head-Hunting Whale, like riding two jet skis, leaped several times on the sea surface and then quickly dived.

While traveling, Yue Jinghua also noticed that the seawater conditions in the East Lin Sea are completely different from those around the Linglong Sea Pavilion and the Boundary Sea.

Around the Boundary Sea, the sea and sky are almost the same color, with the sky being tile blue and the sea water azure.

But the water in East Lin Sea is very different from that around the Boundary Sea. The water here is so pitch black that you can’t see your fingers, even in the scorching summer sun, it is difficult to reach the seabed.

Especially in the area near the Nanbei Sea Trench, the water here is almost like ink, and the sea surface is as calm as a mirror, unlike elsewhere where there are winds and waves.

Yue Jinghua touched it with her hand and found the seawater incredibly cold, even with her physique, the low temperature felt somewhat frightening.

"Sorry for the surprise, it wasn’t like this before," seeing Yue Jinghua show a look of surprise, Jue Xin couldn’t help but explain.

"This area used to be the most beautiful sea area in the East Lin Sea, known as the Sea Pearl. The water here was translucent blue, and on a fine day in spring, if you rode a sea beast here, you could see shellfish at the bottom of the sea nearly ten thousand miles deep. You could also hear the songs of the affectionate pearl gatherers. But all this changed a thousand years ago. After the Nan Emperor Pearl disappeared, the seawater became like silt, the sun couldn’t penetrate the water, and the deeper you went, the colder the water became. Countless marine creatures died out, and the Nanbei of the diving area all disappeared. However, we found the Nan Emperor’s Double Pearl, and I believe, just a while longer, and East Lin Sea will be restored to its original beauty," Jue Xin’s eyes glimmered with hope, but Yue Jinghua did not miss the trace of deep concern behind that hope.

"Jue Xin, we’ve been through life and death several times, so we’re practically comrades in adversity. You don’t need to hold back in front of me, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, no need to hide it," Yue Jinghua noticed some clues.

Jue Xin, like her mother Jue Shang, has an incredibly resilient personality and doesn’t easily admit defeat.

Since coming to this sea area, she has been carefully observing the surroundings, clearly aware that under this mirror-like sea surface, things are not ordinary.

Yue Jinghua had a premonition of the calm before a storm.

Jue Xin couldn’t help but sigh lightly and smiled helplessly: "I really can’t keep anything from you, in fact, even the best pearl gatherers of the Sea Demon Clan haven’t stepped into this sea area for over nine hundred years. Let alone, the Nanbei Sea Trench more than ten thousand meters below."

"Ten thousand meters?" To Yue Jinghua’s knowledge, even with modern technology, the highest-tech submarines couldn’t reach such depths.

Not to mention, when Jue Xin brought her to this area, they had brought nothing with them, just the two Head Hunting Whales beneath them. They couldn’t possibly use the Head-Hunting Whale to dive deep, right?

"The water depth is not a problem, don’t forget I am Jue Shang’s daughter, my mother could dive ten thousand meters back then, and as her daughter, I won’t be any less capable," she said with pride in her eyes.

The entire Sea Demon Clan, only Jue Shang and her daughter could dive to such depths in the trench; beyond them, even the Divine Clan couldn’t handle the deep sea at all.

Otherwise, the Scumbag God Cang Mi wouldn’t have used Jue Shang to deceive the Nan Emperor Pearl.

Fortunately, Jue Shang was not foolish, only giving away the Nan Emperor Pearl while keeping the Nanhuang Pearl with her.

What worried Jue Xin was not the depth of the dive, but the unknown dangers within the Nanbei Sea Trench.

Jue Xin took out a shell from her arms, a special shell used by the Sea Demon Clan to record relevant history, known as the Page Shell.

"After my mother found out she was deceived, she dove into the Nanbei Sea Trench, hoping to find a remedy, but during her descent, she discovered that the trench had undergone tremendous changes. All the sea beasts had disappeared, and in the depths of the trench, an unknown demon beast resided. With her strength at that time, and the Nanhuang Ring in her hand, she barely escaped," the shell in Jue Xin’s hand was left by Jue Shang back then.

At that time, Jue Shang’s strength was already in the Demigod Realm, nearly reaching the Immortal Realm, and was known as the Plane Female War Goddess of the Chen Plane, only second to Emperor Demon Wu Ya.

Yet even she was not confident of defeating the unknown demon beast in the depths of the trench, which is why Jue Xin showed difficulty earlier.

Even though a thousand years have passed, demon beasts generally have very long lifespans, and looking at the situation in this sea area, it is not hard to guess that the beast below has become even more formidable.

"I’ll go down with you, but you must ensure that I, like you, can safely dive ten thousand meters," Yue Jinghua’s current cultivation allows her to dive three thousand meters without problem, but any deeper, without the special methods of the Sea Witches, she would be out of luck.

"Thank you, Miss Yue," seeing Yue Jinghua agree without hesitation, Jue Xin was overjoyed and also relieved.

She really wouldn’t have had the confidence to deal with the underground monster alone. For some reason, as long as Yue Jinghua was present, she felt much more at ease, as if Yue Jinghua was truly the Sea God of this area.

Jue Xin said as she took out a small object and handed it to Yue Jinghua, "Please swallow this little thing and you will be able to dive to the seabed with me."

Upon closer inspection, Yue Jinghua found that what Jue Xin had given her was a living sea beast. The sea beast had many tentacles, lacking a mouth, eyes, nose, and other things, with a tentacle-like transparent body underneath.

"A Jellyfish! You want me to swallow this thing," Yue Jinghua was surprised that the key to diving ten-thousand-meter depths lay in a jellyfish no bigger than her thumb.

"Miss Yue also recognizes this sea beast? It’s called the Ghost Mother, the only sea beast still able to survive in this area, it is also a deep-sea creature. Once you swallow it, you can enter the Nanbei Sea Trench without hindrance." With ongoing urging from Jue Xin, Yue Jinghua steeled herself and picked up the Ghost Mother that kept throwing its tentacles around in her hand.

"Ha ha, Ugly, take it easy, don’t choke," the Gold Eater Worm chuckled gleefully.

Yue Jinghua rolled her eyes, tried hard to suppress the urge to gag, and swallowed the Ghost Mother with grit.
