Eternal Life by Dual Cultivation-Chapter 112 - 103: Tang Qiuyao: Little Junior Brother Is Getting More and More Capable
Additionally, some of the Rank Two and Three Deep Sea Fierce Beasts weren’t quite dead yet. When prodded by those Cultivators, they suddenly awoke, bared their vicious fangs, and frantically attacked any creature that dared to approach.
Every so often, a Cultivator would fail to react in time and be torn to pieces by a Fierce Beast’s dying counterattack, only to be devoured as food.
The boiling seawater was soon dyed a ghastly blood-red.
"Let’s go deeper. There’s no need to get tangled up with them!"
Ling Qiyue spoke. Though she wasn’t afraid of these Loose Cultivators, who were like a pack of hyenas, there was no need for unnecessary complications right now.
Tang Qiu Yao agreed, piloting the Flying Ship closer to the volcanic eruption zone.
After flying for several thousand more miles, the surrounding temperature grew higher and higher. The surface of the sea was densely packed with the corpses of Fierce Beasts, and an overwhelmingly rich aroma of seafood filled the air, making even Ling Changqing’s mouth water.
’If only the circumstances weren’t so inappropriate...’
"This should be far enough, right? It’ll get more dangerous if we go any deeper!"
Tang Qiu Yao said. The area where the three of them were now was almost devoid of other Cultivators. Thunderous explosions rumbled incessantly from deep within the fiery clouds.
Superheated steam filled every inch of the surrounding space. Every so often, large globs of dark-red magma would fall from the sky, triggering violent explosions as they slammed into the sea.
"Alright, this spot will do!"
Ling Qiyue said, then summoned her Magical Treasure, the Fenghuo Panyun Bell.
A dense mass of crimson, cloud-like light emerged, and a faint, almost imperceptible chime resonated within their Divine Souls. The Early Stage Magical Treasure expanded to roughly ten feet in size, hovering over the three of them.
Streaks of brilliant, crimson cloud-light cascaded down, forming a thick, resilient curtain of light that shielded them from the dangers coming from all directions.
"...Senior Sister, that’s a Six-toothed Tiger-headed Flood Dragon!"
Ling Changqing had spotted it at a glance among the densely packed Fierce Beast corpses: a Peak Second Rank Fierce Beast, over a hundred feet long, with a smooth, indigo-scaled body.
Not only did this beast possess an extremely high-quality Demon Core Pill, but its flesh was also exceptionally delicious and could be taken back to be prepared as a rare delicacy.
"Got it!"
Ling Qiyue gestured with her hand, and the massive creature was seized by an invisible force, lifting it into the air. An instant later, it was right in front of them.
Tang Qiu Yao deftly caught it, sealed it with a Profound Ice Technique, and then stored it in her Storage Pouch.
"Hmm, over there, about a hundred feet underwater, I think there’s a five-hundred-year-old Seven-angled Star Turtle?"
Ling Changqing quickly sensed another target.
Following his lead, Ling Qiyue quickly plucked the Third Grade Fierce Beast from the sea.
In his sea of consciousness, the Era Star Palace trembled slightly. Within a radius of nearly a thousand feet, whether in the air or underwater, nothing could escape Ling Changqing’s perception.
This was a special Divine Technique Ling Changqing had gained upon reaching Foundation Establishment. As long as something was within range of his Divine Sense, nothing could evade his perception.
"...Over there, 230 feet deep in the seawater, there’s a Deep Sea Ghost-faced Mastiff. Be careful, it seems to still be alive!"
Ling Changqing said to Ling Qiyue, his expression grave.
Ling Qiyue waved her hand. The roiling, boiling seawater instantly parted, revealing the Third Grade Fierce Beast, which was still clinging to life.
Before it could react, Tang Qiu Yao simply pointed. Dozens of sharp, lightning-fast streaks of Sword Qi rained down, dicing it into several pieces and extinguishing every last trace of its life.
"Over there, at a depth of 500 feet, there’s a patch of Deep Sea Spirit-Devouring Vines that managed to escape. Unfortunately, they’re half-dead now, but it looks like they have quite a few Soul-Devouring Blood Soul Fruits on them..."
Ling Changqing continued.
Just like that, following his directions, the two women continuously gathered the corpses of the newly discovered Rank Two and Three Fierce Beasts.
"Impressive! Our little junior brother is getting more and more capable!"
Tang Qiu Yao said, her expression joyful and her voice lilting with a smile.
