The gloomy wind howled, and colossal waves surged into the sky.

In the Mahayana Realm, one could control an area of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, possessing truly formidable destructive power. If on land, it would shift mountains and rivers, while in the sea, it stirred up a terrifying storm.

After Zhang Kui left several hundred miles away, the impact slightly lessened, but the sea surface still had strong winds and large waves. Under the sea, whether giant whales or schools of fish, all scattered frantically.

With a thought, Zhang Kui had Shen Xu notify several coastal towns in Quanzhou to temporarily close their ports until the chaos from the Sea Race subsided.

After giving instructions, he soared through the clouds at high speed, and after about the time of one incense stick, he finally found the location.

The Old Turtle Demon said it was known to everyone, and indeed it was very conspicuous.

On the sea surface, Yin Qi filled the air, and Evil Light shot into the sky. The sky was heavy with thick clouds, and thunder boomed, striking the sea from time to time.

Zhang Kui was not frightened but rather delighted. The density of the Evil Qi here could cause a strange phenomenon of Heaven and Earth, promising some reward.

Without any hesitation, with a booming crash, he plunged into the water, diving towards the seabed.

The seabed had a variety of terrains, just like the East Sea Water Mansion, which was located within a gigantic basin with stable currents.

But in this deep sea area, it was rugged and steep, with treacherous currents, and most importantly, lifeless.

No corals, no fish, not even the simplest plankton and seaweed were in sight, only endless desolation and silence.

Indeed, a perilous place…

Zhang Kui squinted slightly, quickly noticing something peculiar. These trenches and ravines on the sea floor seemed to be radially distributed; the closer to the center, the denser the Evil Qi became.

Suddenly, he turned his head and concealed his form. Not far away, a crab the size of a hill moved with a rumbling sound, its entire body wrapped in blue Demon Fire, heading towards the center.

Grain Avoidance Realm…

Zhang Kui was not surprised. This was clearly a sea anomaly cultivating its bloodline, likely intending to use the Evil Qi to temper its body.

Following the giant crab, Zhang Kui soon spotted the so-called “Ancient Cave of Silent Extinction.”

Although it was called a cave, it was actually a ten-mile-long seabed fissure, with colorful Evil Light surging and fluctuating, ever-changing.

At the entrance of the cave, large and small Demons lay in wait—giant clam-like Mirage Demons as large as rooms, snake eels the size of trains, armor-clad and formidable crabs—each occupying a spot, quietly cultivating.

Most here were bloodline-cultivating Demons, but there were also human-shaped Yakshas standing at the crevice, using Evil Light to temper their steel forks.

What a good place!

Zhang Kui rejoiced inwardly. Those colorful Evil Lights clearly had different attributes, embodying the Five Elements. If the entrance was like this, inside must be even more intense.

With this thought, he immediately parted the water and unhesitatingly plunged into the crevice.

Though these Evil Lights were sharp, they lacked in many respects. With the Demon-slaying Skill’s Evil Qi Condensing Method and his robust physique, he naturally feared nothing.

Inside the ancient cave, Demons still practiced, some even were in the Celestial Tribulation Realm, each entrenched on the cliffs.

By now, Zhang Kui understood that bloodline Demons could find methods within the Underworld to evade the “Three Disasters,” but most were controlled by major powers to draw in these accomplished cultivating Demons.

If he could acquire this method himself, it might also be a way to rapidly bolster human strength…

Putting aside these thoughts, Zhang Kui continued diving deeper.

The outer part of the Ancient Cave of Silent Extinction was rife with chaotic Five Elements, and Evil Lights were intermingled, but the farther in, the more the Evil Lights coalesced, occupying separate areas, undisturbed by one another.

Zhang Kui watched with some puzzlement.

Although Evil Qi is a Strange Qi of Heaven and Earth, it cannot exist without cause. There must be a fundamental reason for its formation. Here, the Five Elements Evil Qi is complete, there must be something fishy!

He dared not be careless, activating the Protective Golden Light, instantly revealing his figure, as he proceeded further in.

By now, he was already at least a thousand meters below the sea, occasionally encountering Demons nearing the Divine Travel Realm, who perched, looking at him with suspicion as he vanished into the depths…

After a long while, the water pressure increased significantly, and it was pitch black all around. Those Five Elements Evil Lights were compressed and condensed, only slightly less than his Geng Metal Evil Light, forming clusters of multicolored light clinging to the rock walls.

Moreover, the rock walls deep within this crevice were also stained by Evil Light, becoming as hard as steel.

Fortunately, the Protective Golden Light still held strong.

Zhang Kui frowned tightly. He had already delved thousands of meters into the seabed, and even a Mahayana Realm bloodline Demon would struggle here, yet the bottom was still not in sight.

When will it end?

With this thought, he fully activated the Tongyou Skill, his eyes’ Sun and Moon Light Wheels spinning, two beams of Divine Light instantly shooting into the abyss.

Buzz!

A hazy purple mist entered his sight. Though not intense, it stung his eyes to tears.

Zhang Kui hurriedly withdrew his skill, eyes filled with uncertainty.

Undoubtedly, this was a type of Evil Light, one he had never encountered before; not even the Demon-slaying Skill’s Evil Light Identification Method recorded it. It was a product unique to this Heaven and Earth.

It was his first time encountering such a situation.

Who knows if the Evil Qi Condensing Skill is still effective…

Zhang Kui looked around. Although the Five Elements Evil Light lingered sporadically, it wasn’t much different from his Geng Metal Evil Light.

If he doesn’t give it a try, wouldn’t the trip be wasted?

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and ventured deeper. After diving over a thousand meters, the Protective Golden Light was as thin as a cicada’s wing, but fortunately, he finally saw this patch of evil light.

It was like a purple ocean of mist, and the surrounding stone walls had turned into an unknown black substance that even the Nether Soil coffin couldn’t penetrate.

The evil light was strange, with distinct particles that flickered rapidly, like a living thing. But when stared at, even the Divine Soul felt a stinging pain.

Zhang Kui calmed his mind, slowly stretched out his hand, and immediately extracted a wisp of purple evil light. After executing the Demon-slaying Skill, he instantly felt a sharp pain in his arm.

But soon, the pain gradually faded. Zhang Kui watched as a thread of purple evil light burned like a flame at his fingertip, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Though he didn’t know what it was, it was definitely fierce!

Thinking of this, he unhesitatingly dispersed the Geng Metal Evil Light and patiently absorbed and refined it wisp by wisp…

…

The heavens and earth changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light.

Hundreds of meters high waves surged wildly. The yin wind enveloped water mist, howling like a beast, various Demon Fire Skills clashed, like the earth and heavens waging war.

The Mansion Masters who had left the East Sea Water Mansion had returned. Together with Mansion Master You, more than twenty towering silhouettes stood above the raging waves, the yin wind howling, each displaying their Divine Powers.

This level of battle, even Divine Travel Realm demons dared not intervene, shrinking tightly within the Water Mansion, watching the doomsday scene above with thousands of the Sea Race in terror.

The Sea Eye Demons were not to be outdone. Countless armies encircled the perimeter. Although there were only a dozen in the Mahayana Realm, they had the formidable Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch.

The sky was filled with dark clouds as dense as substance, and among the rolling clouds, countless eyes of various sizes appeared, their eerie, sinister glints fixed on the sea surface.

“Hold on!”

The Old Turtle Demon had changed his appearance, his muscles bulging, face ferocious, tusks exposed, with blood-red light shooting from his eyes.

“The old demon’s true form is trapped in the Sea Eye, he can’t deal with us!”

As he spoke, he raised a stone disc, summoning a phantom of a green Poisonous Flood Dragon which spewed out eerie green fire, forming a tornado mixed with seawater, roaring upwards into the sky.

How could the East Sea Water Mansion lack Divine Artifacts? The Mahayana Realm could unleash their full power, and even Mansion Master You and the others each had one.

In comparison, the Sea Eye Demons were much more modest, with only eight Divine Artifacts.

With so many Divine Artifacts unleashing their power at once, it was truly a scene of overwhelming waves, the heavens and earth changing color…

At the port of Taiyuan City, fishing boats were docking, and the docks were bustling with people as workers struggled to unload goods.

On one fishing boat, a sailor complained, “Captain, there are so many fish today, we should have cast more nets…”

“Fool!”

The old captain rebuked angrily, “Those fish were fleeing for their lives. It’s fortunate that our ship had a Sacred Artifact for warning, otherwise we would have been in trouble.”

The sailor was speechless, looking at the clear blue sky, “With such good weather, there can’t be…”

He fell silent, staring in horror at a white line where the sea met the sky, “Cap… Captain!”

“Run!”

The old captain screamed, and instantly countless people on the docks frantically ran towards the city.

A massive wave roared in, flooding the docks in an instant, submerging even the houses within the high part of the city by half a meter.

Watching the scattered fishing boats smashed apart, the terrified fishermen hurriedly offered low prayers.

Meanwhile, within the East Sea Water Mansion, runes lit up, raising a golden dome, flickering and struggling to hold on.

The Old Turtle Demon glared at the sky, speaking harshly, “Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch, though we can’t deal with you, you won’t easily break through the Water Mansion. Why not retreat?”

What he didn’t know was that the Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch had placed spies within the Sea God Hall, aware that they intended to use the Dragon Pearl for a significant matter.

Although he was unclear about the specifics, it was undoubtedly a big trouble, and he wouldn’t give up easily. A cold voice descended from the dark clouds, echoing across the sky:

“Today… You must hand over the Dragon Pearl!”

As he spoke, the bottom of the churning dark clouds began to emit an eerie red glow from countless eyes, dyeing the entire sky blood red.

“What kind of skill is this…”

The Old Turtle Demon and the East Sea Water Mansion’s demons immediately tensed up, vigilant. The Hundred-Eyed Demon Monarch’s cultivation was unfathomable. Even with his true form trapped, his Divine Soul Skill was not to be underestimated.

However, what they didn’t expect was that this skill targeted someone else entirely.

Within the Water Mansion, the sea demons and the Aquatic Race, who were terror-stricken and staring at the sea surface, suddenly felt an itch on their bodies, unable to resist scratching fervently.

And from the bloody, broken wounds, eyes began to grow…
