Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs-Chapter 374 - 315: Mysterious Ocean, Barbarian Continent Fleet

The sea and sky are one, vast and boundless green waves.

Poets watch the tides and listen to the sea, always full of thousands of emotions. They might, on a whim, write down an eternal masterpiece.

But when you are in the middle of the ocean, it will reveal its profound, mysterious, and volatile side.

The ocean of the Celestial Essence Star is more perilous, with countless ancient mysterious legends. The dominant Great Ocean Race has blocked sea routes for thousands of years. Even the Forbidden Lands are unwilling to go deep.

Now, the Sea Race has opened up the routes. Although still dangerous, it can't stop curious cultivators and desperate merchants eager to take a chance.

The waves are turbulent. A merchant ship from the Huo Continent is tossing between the towering waves.

"Quick, quick, turn around!"

Waves crashed over, soaking everything, as a Black Wolf Demon ignored its drenched fur, its body suddenly expanding to reveal a muscular upper body. It grabbed the ship's wheel and twisted it sharply.

Crack!

The ship's wheel made of black ironwood shattered, leaving the Black Wolf Demon stunned, its eyes flashing with a fierce light. Grabbing a cowering Old Turtle next to it, it roared, "Didn't you say this sea route was clear? Then what is that?!"

Following its finger, a giant whirlpool with a diameter of several kilometers formed on the sea surface. At the center was a huge mouth like a small mountain, with rows of layered fangs constantly rotating, and countless massive tentacles with barbs rising from the sea.

The Old Turtle's teeth were chattering: "That's a deep-sea abnormal creature. The Sea Race opened the routes, but these things won't obey their orders..."

"Damn!"

The Black Wolf Demon's eyes were bloodshot, and it pushed the Old Turtle aside with a desperate howl.

It came from Black Abyss City in the Huo Continent, fairly renowned. After the sea routes opened, it was tempted by the profits others made with trade with the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty. Betting everything it had, it wanted to be the first to open up the Barbarian Continent.

Take a gamble, and rubbish could become magical treasures. Just one trip might ensure a supply of spirit medicine for years, smoothly advancing to Divine Travel.

Unexpectedly, disaster struck.

The ship was already in chaos, with shape-shifting or bloodline-cultivating foxes and mice scurrying around in panic, shouting in despair.

Plop!

The Old Turtle beside suddenly jumped into the water, trying to escape in the chaos, but was immediately pierced through its shell by a barbed tentacle. It screamed miserably in the air and was sucked dry in an instant.

The Wolf Demon gasped, took a few steps back, then bared its fangs and gave a low growl, pulling out a bronze lampstand and blowing on it fiercely.

Whoosh~

Ghastly green flames spread out.

This was its ace in the hole, an Ancient Artifact found in an old tomb when it was weak, unleashing formidable Netherworld Fire that had protected it until now.

However, the Wolf Demon felt a chill in its heart. This deep-sea abnormal creature was a Secret Realm unto itself, its methods beyond imagination, and the Netherworld Fire would probably be useless.

Sure enough, as the ghastly green flames surged out like a waterfall, the terrifying tentacles with sharp teeth suddenly exuded a black glow, penetrating the flames and pressing down overwhelmingly.

The Black Wolf Demon's hair stood on end, its eyes full of despair.

Suddenly, everything froze instantly: the wolf, the tentacles, the merchant ship, the abnormal creature... all transformed into a dreamlike moonlit glow, an image from the past unveiled by the Moon-taking Skill.

Zhang Kui stood upon the sea, stroking his chin, his eyes contemplative.

Fatty Tiger also stretched its big head to observe, exclaiming, "What has this thing been eating to grow so big, even bigger than the Guardian Ape God General..."

Zhang Kui squinted slightly, waving his hands to control the image to pull back deep into the sea, finally seeing the full appearance of the deep-sea anomaly.

It was a super sea worm resembling a sea anemone that had emerged from the dark, deep seabed, forming a bizarre space, devouring all living creatures, not even sparing fish and shrimp, leaving the surroundings dead for miles.

Zhang Kui stared at the sea surface, fully employing his Tongyou Skill, with the Tai Chi Diagram slowly rotating in his pupils, immediately revealing the seabed scene.

The super sea worm had long since vanished, leaving only a deep hole, leading to an unknown destination.

"Sea Eye Tunnel..."

Zhang Kui suddenly recalled the map of the Star Orbit, where the global Sea Eye Tunnel happened to pass through here.

This super sea worm should have come from the Sea Eye. Similarly bizarre, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch also came from the Sea Eye; it seems uneasy there as well...

He had left the Divine Continent and entered the depths of the ocean, naturally not planning just to cruise around. Along the way, he kept exploring the surroundings, visiting strange places marked on the Underground River Water Mansion map, and having the Divine Court Bell's Tai Shi Clone find all the nearby Netherworld passages.

The Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty would inevitably launch attacks in all directions while reorganizing Yin and Yang. His explorations paved the way for future readiness.

There was certainly a Netherworld passage here too. Zhang Kui waved his hand to summon the Divine Court Bell, calmly saying, "Tai Shi, open the passage, I'm going in for a look."

The Tai Shi Golden Body Dharma Statue Clone strode out, waving its hand, slowly opening a Netherworld passage pulsing with black light.

Zhang Kui and Fatty Tiger flashed in instantly, met by a cacophony of insane howls.

It was an Ancient Underworld completely ruined, with shattered Soul Suppressing Towers buried under black sand, an endless tide of anomalies surging in frenzy.

"Tsk, what a pity..."

Zhang Kui shook his head lightly, hovering in midair, pulling out a map, and marking it with a pen.

On the map, from the Divine Continent, he had made many marks across the ocean.

Roar!

An anomaly resembling a beetle, as big as a mountain, charged ferociously, its body encircled in black light.

Zhang Kui glanced at it indifferently, forming a spell with his fingers, and gave a low shout, "Sun Exposure Skill!"

The eerie black and white light appeared again. Zhang Kui, not even looking, left the passage.

Although the Yin Yang True Fire Sun Exposure Technique was fierce, it couldn't clear the entire Black Tide in one go. Pressed for time, he left it to the Starship Fleet to handle.
