The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 331 Two Questions


"I see." Lin Bai nodded in sudden realization.

Having listened to Xue Jianke's introduction, Lin Bai gained some understanding of the Lost Sea.

"Giant Beast?"

Lin Bai paid extra attention to these two words.

Because these two words did not sound easy to deal with.

What excited Lin Bai more was: if the giant beast was a large-framed Demon Beast, there should be a lot of Demon Blood in its body...

Hua Qinghai said, "You don't need to worry, the Lost Sea is not as terrifying as the rumors say. The reason you couldn't find it is because it's isolated by a powerful Magic Circle. Unless you accidentally step inside, you can't find it on purpose."

"We, the Eight Great Clans, hold the method to enter the Lost Sea. You can get in if you follow Sha Tongtian and his men."

"Enough talk, let's set off since everything is ready. The ship for you is already prepared and it's at the port of Fallen God Bay. We will wait here for your victorious return."

Hua Qinghai and the other eight family leaders looked at Lin Bai and his companions with solemn faces.

"The future of East Sea is in your hands."

"Be very careful. You must block the gap in the Sealing."

"You must succeed."

The eight leaders spoke sternly.

Hua Wanqing replied, "Please rest assured, we will do our best."

Immediately, under everyone's gaze, Lin Bai and the others boarded the prepared ship and left Fallen God Bay.

Once on the ship, everyone found their rooms and began to rest.

The ship sailed on the East Sea for three days and nights but did not reach the so-called Lost Sea.

Lin Bai grew restless in his room and decided to get some fresh air.

Given that it was now the middle of the month, the moon was shining bright in the sky.

Standing on the deck, Lin Bai looked at the bright moon and the myriad of stars in the sky.

"The sea is the closest place to the moon and stars. Standing here, it feels like you could grab a star with a simple reach."

At this moment, a deep male voice came from behind Lin Bai.

"Poison Dragon Island Master." Lin Bai looked back and smiled.

"The room is too stuffy, I came out for some fresh air. I hope I didn't disturb you," said the Poison Dragon Island Master with a light laugh.

"Not at all." Lin Bai laughed.

The Poison Dragon Island Master moved next to Lin Bai and said softly, "The journey to the Lost Sea is extremely perilous, we must raise our guard."

Lin Bai chuckled, "I'll give it my all."

The Poison Dragon Island Master continued, "I mean we should not only beware of the Demon Beasts in the Lost Sea but also the warriors from the Eight Great Clans."

Lin Bai replied, "Naturally."

Surprised at Lin Bai's quick response, the Poison Dragon Island Master asked, "You've noticed something too?"

Lin Bai smiled faintly, "I haven't noticed anything in particular, but two questions have been bothering me without finding answers."

"Let's hear them. Maybe I can help," suggested the Poison Dragon Island Master.

Lin Bai began, "First, since Sha Tongtian is a high-ranking member of the Frenzied Shark Sect, why would Sha Lang have him participate in the martial arts competition on the Floating Platform? And why would Sha Tongtian give the quota to him after his failure? Why make unnecessary trouble?"

"Or, if Sha Tongtian had won the quota on the Floating Platform, the Frenzied Shark Sect would have to send another warrior."

"That means the Frenzied Shark Sect would actually send two people to the Lost Sea."

"Isn't there something strange?"

"Second, why would the Eight Great Clans mobilize so many experts from the whole East Sea? They themselves possessed formidable power at the Heaven Martial Realm Ninth Layer. Why didn't they personally go to complete the seal and protect the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman? Why did they have to select us to go?"

"I always couldn't figure out the answers to these two questions!"

The Poison Dragon Island Master berated, echoing Lin Bai's sentiments. "I can't figure out the answer to the second question, either. But, I didn't even notice the first question you posed. Indeed, why did the Frenzied Shark Sect want to send two warriors?"

"So, who would the Frenzied Shark Sect have dispatched if Sha Tongtian had obtained the slot on the platform?"

Following Lin Bai's reasoning, the Poison Dragon Island Master had a sudden awakening.

Lin Bai was right. Sha Tongtian was one of the top warriors in the Frenzied Shark Sect. Since he was already committed to going to the Lost Sea, why put in an unnecessary struggle for the Floating Platform?

"Lin Bai, no matter how many doubts we have, I still hope that you will do your best to ensure that the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman is firmly attached to the breach. Otherwise, a catastrophe will hit the East Sea and no one will be able to avoid it," said the Poison Dragon Island Master somberly.

"I understand, I'll do my best," Lin Bai replied with a hint of a smile.

"Great, I've already arranged with Xue Jianke, Jin Qiu, and Xiang Tian that we'll cooperate closely. Our mission is to ensure that the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman is attached to the breach," the Poison Dragon Island Master said.

"I understand." Lin Bai nodded.

After chatting with the Poison Dragon Island Master until midnight, the two left the deck and returned to their rooms.

The next morning, Hua Wanqing and Sha Tongtian called everyone to the deck.

Hua Wanqing said, "Everybody, we are going to dive."

"Dive?" Lin Bai was taken aback.

Hua Wanqing explained, "The Lost Sea is right ahead. The only way to enter the Lost Sea is by going underwater. Also, the Land of Sealing is underwater."

"There's a Magic Circle on the surface of the Lost Sea. If we try to sail into it from the surface, we will go straight through the Magic Circle and fail to reach the Lost Sea."

"So, we have to stop the ship here and swim into the heart of the Lost Sea."

"Any questions?"

After hearing Hua Wanqing's explanation, Lin Bai agreed to the plan.

He walked to the side of the ship and looked at the deep blue sea.

"Stay close to me and move on."

"After diving, remember this under any circumstances, do not surface. Otherwise, you will get caught in the bizarre Magic Circle of the Lost Sea. You will be stuck in the same spot, unable to get out."

With that, Hua Wanqing jumped into the water.

After that, Sha Tongtian, Long Feihai, Lin Bai, Poison Dragon Island Master, and others also jumped into the water one after another.

Underwater, Lin Bai circulated his True Qi to sustain breathing, and he quickly followed Hua Wanqing's silhouette.

This journey continued for almost an hour.

Suddenly, Lin Bai was on high alert.

"I can sense spiritual energy here. The Spiritual Spring Sea should not be far from here," Lin Bai excitedly said.

"You came here for the Spiritual Spring Sea. Why not we go there first? Because once the gap is sealed, the Spiritual Spring Sea will disappear," suggested the Poison Dragon Island Master.

As Lin Bai considered the suggestion, he found himself agreeing.

"No, we must seal the gap first. Nobody should detach from our group. It's very risky to separate in the Lost Sea," sternly commanded Sha Tongtian when he heard Lin Bai and Poison Dragon Island Master talking.

"I don't need much time, an hour should be enough," Lin Bai casually replied.

"I said no, not even a second," Sha Tongtian coldly retorted.

A hint of displeasure appeared on Lin Bai's face.

Sha Tongtian looked at Lin Bai with a triumphant smirk. Clearly, he was harboring a grudge against Lin Bai for injuring him on the Floating Platform.

"Be careful, we have enemies!"

Suddenly, Sha Tongtian shouted in surprise.
