Chapter 2487: Chapter 490: Sea Beast Calamity: Water Elder’s Assistance!

"Alright, in that case, take this Soul Lock Badge. If there is any real danger, just summon me, and I’ll definitely come."

Heiye Wuxing didn’t want to dwell on this matter, handed Ling Xiao a Soul Lock Badge, and then turned around and left.

Ling Xiao held the Soul Lock Badge and carefully placed it into his Storage Ring.

He’s not a stubborn person; if his life was truly in danger, he would definitely use it.

Of course, if he can avoid using it, he’ll try not to, as any non-lethal danger is very helpful for his cultivation.

"Water Elder, we’ll meet again if fate allows. If I’m still alive, I won’t forget you. I’ll definitely collect all eight of the Eight Immortals Mountain’s magical treasures and then rescue you."

After saying this, Ling Xiao also stepped into the Demon Sea Domain.

In fact, Water Elder hadn’t requested anything from him.

But Ling Xiao felt that since he had received Water Elder’s kindness, he should help him in return.

Moreover, the Eight Immortals Mountain’s magical treasures were also something Ling Xiao had always wanted to obtain.

Rescue and becoming stronger are not contradictory.

Watching Ling Xiao’s figure gradually disappear into the distance, Water Elder was filled with emotion: "I merely helped him break through one level of cultivation, yet he is so grateful.

It seems, even for my own sake, I must ensure he leaves here alive!"

Water Elder knew that once Ling Xiao stepped into the Demon Sea Domain, he was very likely to die, so he planned to help this young man.

Although he was trapped there, unable to leave the Demon Sea Domain, he could still move around within it.

At the very least, he could ensure that Ling Xiao wouldn’t die there.

Ling Xiao didn’t know Water Elder’s thoughts. At this moment, he had quietly entered the Sha Clan Sea Area.

The place was heavily guarded.

It seemed that the Sha Clan was very concerned about this sea area.

Perhaps it was because the terrifying pressure here could forge truly powerful experts.

Moreover, it was also a place for imprisoning serious criminals.

Originally, with Ling Xiao’s cultivation level, it would have been impossible for him to move freely here.

But with the Shadow Black Gourd and the Dark Immortal Sword, he could roam freely, completely ignoring the atmospheric pressure here.

Utilizing Shadow Step, Ling Xiao easily evaded the guards and entered the core of the Sha Clan Sea Area.

Upon entering, he was a bit shocked because he discovered there was a huge factory there.

Inside the factory, all sorts of equipment used by martial artists were being produced continuously.

Including weapons, armor, and so on.

And the ones working there were those imprisoned criminals.

They wore special collars around their necks, which suppressed their inner strength.

They could only exert about one-tenth of their strength for work, but if they exceeded that, the collar would suddenly tighten, preventing any rebellion.

Ling Yan was among these people.

However, having made a mistake, he was now being suspended in the open area of the factory and beaten.

In a situation where he couldn’t use more than one-tenth of his inner strength, Ling Yan was being brutally beaten.

But this kid was indeed a genius, second only to Ling Xiao.

Back when they parted in Yuhua Town, Ling Yan’s cultivation was stronger than his.

Although he wasn’t as strong now, he had cultivated to the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm, Third Layer Hell Peak. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Moreover, in such harsh circumstances, he was still able to closely follow in Ling Xiao’s footsteps.

It seems that although the Demon Sea Domain is dreadful, it does indeed temper a person.

"Master, there are too many experts here. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to take action."

Shen Dian reminded him.

Ling Xiao nodded in agreement, for he, too, had noticed that there were over a dozen martial artists with a First-turn Yin-Yang Realm, Fifth Level of Hell cultivation within this vast Sha Clan Sea Area.

Although their ages were relatively old, and they didn’t qualify as geniuses,

their strength was undoubtedly much greater than his own.

If he wanted to rescue people, it certainly wouldn’t be easy.

"I’ll just have to use the Soul of the Butterfly Girl first!"

Ling Xiao was just about to act.

Suddenly, a phantom formed in the seawater, gradually becoming clearer.

"I’ll cause some chaos for you. Take the chance to rescue the person."

"Water Elder!"

Ling Xiao was surprised to see the phantom of Water Elder appear in the sea, unexpectedly.

Logically, Water Elder really had no reason to help him.

"Don’t be surprised. If you die, who will rescue me?"

Water Elder smiled, then exerted his inner strength, causing numerous giant sea beasts to emerge from the previously calm sea.

"The people of Eight Immortals Mountain have always trapped me in the eye of the sea, preventing my soul from leaving. However, they don’t know that I’ve harnessed the power of the sea eye to control many sea beasts.

I originally planned to attempt an escape, but I’ll lend them to you today."

The terrifying sea beasts all gathered in the Sha Clan Sea Area.

Chaos ensued.

The martial artists of the Sha Clan didn’t have time to defend themselves.

Because never had there been any sea beasts daring to directly attack Eight Immortals Mountain’s stronghold in the Demon Sea Domain.

So, for a time, the Sha Clan Sea Area fell into chaos.

Ling Yan looked up at the sea beasts and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

"Damn, these bastards didn’t kill me, and yet I’m about to become your feast. This is really unfair."

Feeling hopeless, suddenly, he spotted a figure standing on one of the sea beasts.

Although he was bleeding heavily from the beatings, he still managed to see clearly.

"Big brother!"

Seeing this person, Ling Yan was both shocked and delighted.

He had imagined many possibilities but never thought that Ling Xiao would come to his rescue. It was like a dream.

"Heh, you call me big brother, and if I don’t save you, wouldn’t that be too heartless?"

Ling Xiao chuckled, using the force of the sea beast to break through the surrounding Sha Clan warriors, rescuing Ling Yan.

Then, without stopping for a moment, they fled from the Demon Sea Domain towards the outside.

Once they reached the cultivation sea route, they would temporarily be safe.

After all, amidst the many islands on the cultivation route, even if Eight Immortals Mountain wanted to pursue Ling Yan, it would be hard to find him in the short term.

Seizing this opportunity, Ling Xiao could fully activate the Teleportation Array he had prepared beforehand,

enabling them to teleport directly from the Fifth Level of Ghost Prison to the First Layer of Ghost Prison and then help Ling Yan blend in with the disciples of Lower Eight Immortals Mountain to escape.

"Never thought the plan would go so smoothly."

Having escaped the Demon Sea Domain and reached one of the islands, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Big brother, you know everything about me, right?"

Ling Yan looked at Ling Xiao, his emotions still turbulent.

"I know."

"And yet you dare to save me? Aren’t you afraid of making Eight Immortals Mountain your enemy? It wasn’t easy for you to attain your current standing."

Ling Yan couldn’t help but ask.

"Enough of that talk. Since I dared to come here to save you, I’m not afraid of becoming enemies with them.

If I don’t even dare to save a good brother, I wouldn’t have achieved what I have today as Ling Xiao.

It’s this fearlessness that allows me to cultivate faster than anyone else!"

Ling Xiao said with a heavy slap on Ling Yan’s shoulder, laughing and scolding.

Ling Yan fell silent.

He was silent for a long time before suddenly falling to his knees, "Big brother, I used to call you that because of your strength, but from today on, my life is yours."

Ling Yan was once the sect leader of Eight Immortals Mountain, a position of high standing.

For him to kneel to someone was no small feat.
