They followed this small fish all the way to a seemingly ordinary underwater canyon hundreds of miles away.

The underwater canyon, deep in the waters of several kilometers, was completely devoid of any light. However, the small fish didn’t hesitate and swam right in.

Seeing this, Ji Chen also didn’t hesitate and said, “Let’s follow them in.”

The Sea Crystal Wyrm slowly flapped its crystal wings and followed the small fish, heading deeper into the canyon at an unhurried pace.

Once inside the canyon, though it was imperceptible, Ji Chen keenly sensed a dark current slowly flowing from the outside of the canyon towards its depths.

Soon, they reached the end of the canyon, where a pitch-black abyss-like hole suddenly appeared on the rock wall, slanting downward, leading deeper into the sea.

The small fish stopped in front of the large hole and turned around, its eyes fixedly waiting for Ji Chen. Ji Chen understood this and gave a reward – a tiny amount of energy, about the size of half a pinky fingertip.

This energy was given in the form of deducting some experience points, a power Ji Chen gained after obtaining the power of the ocean bestowing.

This energy amounted to approximately 10,000 experience points.

Upon seeing this small cluster of energy, the small fish appeared very happy and didn’t hesitate to bite onto it, swallowing about a third of it in one gulp. Then, it continued to swallow, one after another, until it completely absorbed it into its belly.

!!..

After consuming this energy, the small fish’s belly expanded as if it were eight months pregnant. Its small fins vigorously moved its body, and bubbles came out of its mouth.

Ji Chen couldn’t help but smile as he sensed that the small fish was slowly realizing the changes. Upon closer inspection, he could see a glimmer of brightness in its eyes, and its body seemed to be evolving gradually.

Given enough time, if this small fish could fully digest these energies before being preyed upon, it might have a chance to transform into a sea creature with a hint of intelligence.

Leaving the small fish struggling in place with its tail, Ji Chen guided the Sea Crystal Wyrm into the large hole and proceeded in the direction of the flowing water.

After advancing several kilometers diagonally downwards, the water current gradually calmed down, and the surroundings became brighter. An immense underwater cavern stretched out before them.

Fluorescent algae grew in the gaps of the rocky formations, forming an “underwater forest” standing tall at the bottom. Glowing coral grew on the seafloor, and small shrimps and fish darted in and out of the coral. Sea serpents and trilobites slowly moved through the mud.

Numerous bizarre and heavily armored fish, some with long mouths and scales, swam around. There were even creatures resembling marine dinosaurs.

Looking at the entire scene, it felt as if they had traveled back to some ancient era, like the Cambrian or Cretaceous period, brimming with a primitive atmosphere.

The primordial marine landscape of the Age of God’s War had, in some miraculous way, been reproduced in the present, thousands of years later, as a dungeon scenario.

As Ji Chen and his companions appeared here, the creatures panicked and scattered, disappearing from their sight within a dozen breaths – the law of the ocean, where the one with the largest size was the boss.

The Sea Crystal Wyrm, which was comparable in size to a small truck, was definitely a top-tier presence. Its crystal body emitted a faint azure light in the deep waters, giving the impression that it was not to be trifled with.

However, it seemed that this place was not without larger creatures. After advancing several hundred meters, more than a dozen massive fish with fearsome fangs, heavy scales, and lengths of up to eight or nine meters, swam towards them. Their size even exceeded that of the Sea Crystal Wyrm by a bit.

Heavy Armor Toothfish, Tier 6, 2 stars, Mount.

They also noticed that on the backs of these Heavy Armor Toothfish, there seemed to be burly figures wielding metal spears.

Heavy Armor Toothfish Knights, Tier 5, 8 stars, Sea Tribe.

“This is the sacred territory of the Sea Tribe, outsiders are not allowed to enter! Proceed one more meter, and there will be no mercy!

Immediately return the way you came, and you may be spared…”

Before they could clearly see what was in front of them, surprised voices suddenly reached their ears.

The burly Heavy Armor Toothfish Knights, with astonishment in their eyes, looked at Alice, who was beside Ji Chen, and their eyes displayed surprise.

This Sea Tribe member looked somewhat strange, like…

Ji Chen, regardless of the knight’s astonishment, spoke in a calm tone.

“We have no ill intentions; we simply wish to meet with your ruler and discuss a matter that concerns the life and death of the Sea Tribe.”

The Heavy Armor Toothfish Knight shifted his gaze from Alice to Ji Chen and once again his eyes changed. If his previous expression while looking at Alice was one of surprise, now, when he looked at Ji Chen, it was one of shock.

Human!?

This was the deep sea, thousands of meters below the surface! How could a human possibly come to this place?

The Heavy Armor Toothfish Knight seemed to see something that challenged their understanding of reality, stared at Ji Chen with an incredulous look, and even rubbed his eyes, thinking it was an illusion.

Seeing their reaction, Ji Chen showed no surprise and explained.

“I am indeed a human, but I have the protection and guidance of the ocean, granting me the ability to move freely underwater.”

Upon hearing this, the Heavy Armor Toothfish Knight slightly calmed down his astonished gaze, subdued the tumultuous emotions within him, and solemnly said to his companions, “Keep an eye on this human. 1 will return and report this matter; it must be decided by the king..”
