"Alright, let’s go inside and take a look, but I believe this Fourth Layer is surely extremely dangerous. The monsters inside are quite formidable, so you need to be attentive!" Chu Linfeng said.

"Big brother, are you asking us to protect you? If that’s the case, just say so directly. Why speak so tactfully? We all know the monsters here are really powerful, and Sister Qing and I won’t make fun of you." Chu Tong said.

A black line appeared on Chu Linfeng’s forehead; this kid’s mouth is getting more and more articulate, somehow knowing his intent. At this moment, Chu Qing said: "Tong’er, how can you speak to big brother like that? You’ve embarrassed him. Of course, if big brother is in danger, we must protect him."

"Chu Qing is still the sensible one. Let’s go inside and see what this Fourth Layer looks like. You know, no one has entered the Fourth Layer of the Three Profound Tower, and we are the first to do so. Isn’t that exciting?" Lin Feng said, smiling, as he took the pitch-black key and walked to the stone gate.

The stone gate was as smooth as a mirror, with nothing on it except a keyhole. After inserting the key into the hole, Chu Linfeng gently twisted it, causing the stone gate to emit a creaking sound. Soon, a passage appeared in front of Chu Linfeng, surrounded by mist, with an eerie atmosphere evident.

After the three entered the passage, the surroundings transformed once more. Unlike the Third Layer environment, they found themselves on a small island, surrounded by water, turbulent and roaring as if on the sea.

"This is the space of the Fourth Layer, truly peculiar. If we need to find the key or token in the water, it really is much harder than the Third Layer." Chu Linfeng said speechlessly.

"What token? We don’t know what you’re talking about. Big brother, there’s water everywhere. How can we enter the next layer?" Chu Tong asked.

"I don’t know right now; there should be some hint. Let’s first familiarize ourselves with the environment on this island." Chu Linfeng said.

The island wasn’t very large, maybe the size of a small city. It took Chu Linfeng and the others about an hour to explore it entirely, finding only some trees and wild grass without any trace of monsters. Chu Linfeng thought the monsters might be in the water; indeed, it’s insanely troublesome.

Before long, a golden light flashed in the sky, followed by a series of golden characters appearing. After seeing the floating golden text, Chu Linfeng felt uneasy. The meaning was simple: in this watery realm dwells a water monster named the Great White Shark, and both the token and key are on the Great White Shark King, requiring its defeat to obtain them.

Looking at the tumultuous waters, Chu Linfeng said: "Qing’er, Tong’er, to get the key, we must slay the Great White Shark King in these waters. This time, we can’t act alone; you use your Divine Sense to locate the Great White Shark King, and we go there together, making things easier."

"Big brother, hang on; this water area is vast. Finding a Great White Shark is easy, but finding the King may be a bit difficult. We need some time." Chu Qing said.

"Take your time searching; big brother is waiting for you!" Chu Linfeng said with a smile. Having these two little helpers made Chu Linfeng very happy. If he were here alone, leaving aside his own strength, just finding the Great White Shark King would take goodness knows how long.

After a while, Chu Qing was the first to speak: "Big brother, I see there are thousands upon thousands of Great White Sharks in this water region, including one golden and one silver that might be the Great White Shark Kings you mentioned. Their size is about twice as large as the others. But they are quite far away, and if flying, it would take about half a day to arrive."

Chu Linfeng was dumbfounded; it’s impossible to fly here. Just as he felt a bit disheartened, Sword Spirit said: "Lin Feng, this Silver Great White Shark King has at least reached the Seventh Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm in strength, while the Golden one is at the Eighth Layer. This might be the strongest opponent you’ve ever faced; you need to handle it cautiously."

"No way; I’m only at Divine Martial Realm strength now. Even if these two big ones stay still and let me attack, I might not be able to defeat them. Seems like I can’t get the token and key." Chu Linfeng said dejectedly.

"How do you know you’re at Divine Martial Realm strength? The Fourth Layer doesn’t suppress strength. It’s clearly written on the token that appeared after the Wolf King died; didn’t you see it? Try it if you don’t believe!" Sword Spirit said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Linfeng was ecstatic; if his strength truly recovered, he’d indeed have the qualifications to battle these two Great White Shark Kings. Quickly circulating the Chaotic Dragon Power within, he found it had indeed fully recovered.

After asking Qing to confirm the Great White Shark King’s precise location, Chu Linfeng said: "Tong’er, Qing’er, let’s go meet that Great White Shark King!" He quickly took the two and skillfully used Instant Teleportation, disappearing from the island.

Chu Qing and Chu Tong were both shocked to see Chu Linfeng able to use Instant Teleportation. Chu Qing said: "Big brother, your strength has recovered! This time you can nicely slay those big guys, haha!"

With his strength restored, the half-day time mentioned by Chu Qing took only the time of half a stick of incense for Chu Linfeng to arrive. Looking at the waters below, Chu Linfeng said: "You two should head back to the Storage Ring. If I face danger, protect me, as the Great White Shark King has Seventh and Eighth Layers of Martial Realm strength, and I can’t guarantee I won’t get hurt." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

As soon as he finished speaking, the two disappeared. Chu Linfeng then descended into the water to search for the Great White Shark Kings mentioned, finding many fish as large as small mountains, surely the Great White Sharks, but not the so-called Great White Shark King.

Once the Great White Sharks saw Chu Linfeng, they immediately charged at him. Chu Linfeng could sense that all of them had reached the Martial Realm in strength. Swiftly using Water Transformation, he concealed himself, unwilling to waste energy on these useless Great White Sharks.

Slowly searching in the water, he wasn’t sure how long it took when a silver-white Great White Shark appeared in his view. This shark was indeed larger, with its huge mouth revealing two rows of sharp teeth. Chu Linfeng knew it wouldn’t need teeth to deal with him, as his own body wasn’t even as big as one of its teeth.

He suddenly thought of a good way to deal with the Great White Shark: directly enter its body. Using Water Transformation, it couldn’t see him; only when it opens its big mouth during feeding can Chu Linfeng enter, and then play it to death as he wished. Thus, Chu Linfeng slowly approached the Great White Shark...
