Chapter 211: Eye of the Sea

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The grey-robed cultivator thought to himself, “Why is this guy so obnoxious?”

Shen Lian did not care about what he thought. He stepped out of the raft and all of a sudden he was already a thousand feet away.

The closer he got to the Mystical Whale, the messier the Qi of heaven and earth became. Even though the grey-robed cultivator was protected by equipment, he dared not to get too close as he was afraid he would be swallowed by the Mystical Whale.

The big sea monster was not of evil nature, but it had a huge appetite. Regardless of whether the object was alive, it would swallow anything that approached it. Not everything would be digested. For some lucky ones, they could escape from the stomach from the water spout.

When Shen Lian was about a thousand feet away, he then slowly rode on the waves to approach the Mystical Whale.

He was now aware of the origin of the Mystical Whale. It was the mount of Mister Sea. Mister Sea was trapped in Jinguang Temple. As the Mystical Whale lost its owner, it began to wander around.

As his Qi of Dan was leaked, the messy Qi of heaven was dispersed with the sweeping of the divine ray. It was a technique used to trap the heaven and lock the earth, most often used to deal with cultivators who were extremely dependent on the Qi of heaven and earth.

After removing the Qi of heaven and earth, the divine power was reduced significantly.

Shen Lian only wanted to appease this Qi of vitality and he did not think too much.

Even though the Qi of vitality was gone now, the flood was still around. The Mystical Whale was humongous and as it could no longer absorb Qi of vitality, it then kept the water spout and slowly it went afloat. Half of it was revealed. It was indeed a humongous object.

The grey-robed cultivator was shocked when he saw Shen Lian’s divine power in trapping the heaven and locking the earth. He had been out several times as a non-formal cultivator and from his experience, only a few old monsters could use the technique. All of them almost never stepped out of their respective residence. They did not even attend the Dao sessions at Longevity Temple.

These few old monsters were fortunate to attain the treasure left behind by previous generations of lan immortals who were cultivated informally. They tend to look down on others. Furthermore, while cultivators tend to look rather young, but it was rare to find a great cultivator that kept a young man’s appearance like that of Shen Lian. Even if there was one, he must be extremely famous, but the grey-robed cultivator had no impression of Shen Lian.

When he saw Zuo Shaoqing which possessed very concentrated sword aura, he thought that if he was not a student of Xuanmen, it would not be possible for him to possess this aura.

He was even more respectful of Shen Lian’s position. In his eyes, Zuo Shaoqing was extremely respectful to Shen Lian.

The grey-robed cultivator was not afraid as he was now working for Qing Xuan. Not many dared to offend the four main Daoist sects. When the Swordsman of Three Defeats, Meng Xunzhen, offended Qing Xuan a few years ago, in the end, he could find no sect which would take him. It was a rather famous incident.

The Mystical Whale seemed to know how powerful Shen Lian was. It made a great wave with its body. The wave was similar to the scale of a small tsunami. The power could destroy everything.

Shen Lian just smiled. High Cloud appeared on top of his head and it rose with the wind. In the end, it turned into something akin to a mortar and it was suppressing the great waves.

How pure and deep his mana was not something any Buxu cultivators could compete with.

The waves were unnerving, but without the aid of the Qi of Vitality, it was akin to a wax bullet head. With the High Cloud formed by Shen Lian’s mana, it immediately led the water to counter the waves. The calmness resumed.

His plain attack was a representation of his otherworldly mana.

It was still far from the immortal Zhenren’s ability to burn the mountain and boil the ocean, it could be considered the peak of the human world.

It was due to the cumulation of elixirs at Qing Xuan that helped Shen Lian to improve so rapidly in the five years. He managed to gather the mana that usual cultivators would take a few hundred years to achieve.

Shen Lian looked to achieve success early because of his responsibility.

His mana was indeed pure and deep, and his techniques were blended in well. However, as he was in a rush, it affected his steady Daoist heart. As a result, he left the mountain to fulfill his wish in order to move ahead.

The High Cloud did not stop, it went on top of the Mystical Whale. Using his mana, while he still could not achieve the mountain-moving and sea-flipping effect of Taiyue Real Shape Incantation, it could still force the Mystical Whale to communicate with him.

When he stood in front of the Mystical Whale, Shen Lian looked insignificant in front of the humongous whale, but Shen Lian who was so insignificant could actually suppress it.

It spoke to Shen Lian using telepathy, “Why are you bothering me?”

Shen Lian saw that the Mystical Whale too carried some humanity, he responded naturally, “Why are you disturbing the sea here?”

The Mystical Whale responded, “You too know that I used to be the mount of a powerful Demon King, but since five years ago, he disappeared. I only know that he went on land. I am limited by my form and I can’t get on land. In previous years, my owner too had disappeared, but this time around, I can’t even reach him with telepathy. I have nobody and hence I decided to sink underwater to sleep for a while and perhaps by the time I wake up, my owner will be back. Unfortunately, I did not find the right position and I fell right into the Eye of the Sea. There was something unknown in the Eye of the Sea and it created a huge cut on my body. There was Qi of devilry around it so it never cured and the injury kept swallowing my vitality. As a result, I have to take in a lot of Qi of vitality to be able to recover. Every ingestion requires digestions, and all the spiritual power I gain from that is used to counter the Qi of devilry. Every half a year, I need to replenish my Qi of vitality.”

It had a huge appetite, as a result, for every full ingestion, it could last a few hundred years without ingesting anything again, but with the injury, the period was shortened.

Given how frequent it was taking in Qi of vitality, and the many lives it had taken, naturally, it had attracted a lot of cultivators’ attention. While the Mystical Whale was not high in terms of states, it had a deep level of mana. Aided by its talent, most cultivators’ attack was nothing to it.

After Shen Lian heard that, he said, “Let me check if what you said is true.”

He used a Water Repelling Incantation and he dived in. He did see a huge cut in the lower body of the Mystical Whale. There was no blood but the Qi of devilry.

Shen Lian separated from his spiritual identity and fell on the injury. The cold Qi of devilry almost froze his spiritual identity. Shen Lian took a long time to gather back his spiritual identity and the coldness did not disappear.

Even with his cultivation experience, he could not handle it, less so for the Mystical Whale.

If not because of its huge size and the capacity to take in Qi of vitality, the injury probably would get worse.

The Qi of devilry was extremely concentrated and it did not seem like something that was formed naturally, but more like through some techniques.

The world was huge but just a mere Eye of the Sea which could release such powerful Qi of devilry was indeed rare. Shen Lian felt like investigating this further.

Shen Lian resurfaced and he asked, “You didn’t lie to me, but where is the Eye of the Sea? Can you lead me there?”

The Mystical Whale sounded afraid, “I dare not to go back there.”

Shen Lian said, “If I help you recover, will you bring me there?”
