Chapter 1266: The Giant Beast of the Dead Sea

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Later on, Liu Ming brought Ye Tianmei to the Little Huan Courtyard’s hall.

After Liu Ming explained the situation to the staff, the staff was happy to introduce several cave houses with abundant spirit to Ye Tianmei.

Ye Tianmei pondered for a moment. With a slight blush on her face, she chose a cave house next to Liu Ming’s.

When handing over the spirit stones, Liu Ming preemptively paid Ye Tianmei for the fees to rent for a couple of decades. Ye Tianmei didn’t seem to reject to it.

In the following time, Liu Ming accompanied Ye Tianmei to buy some necessary items in Luo City. The relationship between the two faintly drew a little closer.

However, whenever Liu Ming was alone with Ye Tianmei, two other beautiful figures always appeared in Liu Ming’s heart involuntarily.

One of them was Jia Lan who was still in the Middle Sky Continent Taiqing Sect and had made a marriage agreement with him.

The other one was Yao Ji who now bore the great hatred of genocide and left him for the restoration of Sky Fox Race.

Liu Ming was not oblivious. He was naturally clear about the feelings of the three women for him.

However, even though Liu Ming had now reached the Celestial State and his strength was far superior to his peers, he was no different from an ordinary mortal man when it came to the relationship between men and women. He could not figure out his feelings at the moment, so he decided to go with the flow.

Afterward, Liu Ming met with Lan Si again and expressed the intention to terminate the cooperation in refining pills. Seeing that Liu Ming had already broken through to the Celestial State, Lan Si knew that she could no longer change Liu Ming’s decision and reluctantly agreed to it.

Just like that, time flew. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed.

In these years, Liu Ming and Ye Tianmei got to enjoy a rare period of quiet time without being disturbed. Apart from cultivating, they occasionally made plans to visit some of the Savage Wild Continent’s places.

The scenery in various places of the Savage Wild Continent was different from the Middle Sky Continent. It had a sense of rough and primitive hint, which had a unique charm to it.

There was originally a trace of affection between the two of them. After years of being together day and night, although they had not yet confessed their feelings, their tacit understanding had already come to fruition.

During this period, Xue Long, the young master of the Blood Vine Race who had broken through the Celestial State, paid a visit once. During the conversation, the matter of inviting Liu Ming to go to the Lang Ya Mountain Range was naturally mentioned. After being politely rejected by Liu Ming, Qian Rupin suddenly proposed that she would return to Blood Vine Race with Xue Long to study in the way of totems in the next few decades.

Although Liu Ming felt a little surprised, he naturally wouldn’t object to it.

Xue Long hit it off with Qian Rupin already, so she left together with Qian Rupin.

…

On this day, in the secret room of the Little Huan Courtyard cave house. Liu Ming sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. The purple spirit patterns on his body flickered endlessly.

Demonic flames billowed throughout the room. The scorching black flames turned into circles of ripples that stretched to the distance. It turned the surrounding stone walls fiery red like a furnace.

Suddenly, Liu Ming frowned. He felt a slight chill in his consciousness, and a voice sounded in his ears,

“Liu Ming. As of what we agreed in the contract back then, are you ready now?”

Liu Ming’s eyes suddenly opened. He made gestures with both hands, and the surrounding demonic flames surged back into his body in an instant.

Then, he stood up and said lightly,

“It turns out to be Senior Mo Tian. Now as long as I don’t encounter the existence of Mystic Comprehending State, I think I can still handle it.”

“Hehe, this matter is extremely important to me. If there is a suicide go, I will naturally not let you take risks!” Mo Tian’s voice sounded again.

“Okay, but I don’t know where does senior want me to get this hand bone?” Liu Ming asked calmly, feeling a little relieved when he heard this.

“Head to a Dead Sea Area in the southeast corner of the continent first. You will naturally know when the time comes.”

As soon as Mo Tian finished speaking, Liu Ming felt an image appearing in the sea of consciousness. A detailed map of the Savage Wild Continent emerged. Some routes densely marked on it, pointing directly to a certain sea area in the southeast of the continent.

When Liu Ming wanted to ask Mo Tian about something, he never got a reply.

After pondering for a while, Liu Ming didn’t delay further, left a message for Ye Tianmei, and walked out of the cave.

…

Liu Ming traveled there according to the map Mo Tian had given to him. It took him a year to finally reach the southeast of Savage Wild Continent, which was also adjacent to the Endless Sea.

After hesitating for a while, Liu Ming plunged into the vast sea area and flew rapidly.

Half a month later, he came to a sea area that was different from the Endless Sea he had seen before.

In front of him, there was an endless black sea. The sky was filled with thick gray mist. According to the records on the map, this place should be the edge of the Dead Sea Mo Tian mentioned.

Before Liu Ming arrived here, he noticed through his Divine Thought that the gray mist contained a special kind of poisonous gas. It became denser and denser as he went deeper into the Dead Sea.

The poisonous gas had a paralyzing effect on Divine Thought. Liu Ming tried to inhale a little bit of it, and he felt that the sea of consciousness became a little muddled. He was startled and quickly forced the poison out of his body.

In addition, Liu Ming also realized that his Divine Thought could only extend about 30 miles in this place.

Perhaps this was the precise reason that there was almost no life here, making this eerie sea area a true Dead Sea.

Just as Liu Ming was thinking, Mo Tian’s voice appeared in his ears again.

“It’s here! You arrived a few days earlier than I expected. In about 5 days, the poisonous mist here will have a decline period, which will last for about 7 days. You shall enter this place by that time.”

…

5 days later.

At this moment, Liu Ming was stepping on black clouds and patrolling above the strange sea. His body was covered with a faint layer of black air.

The gray mist that originally filled the sky above the sea had turned thinner. With Liu Ming’s current cultivation, there was no need to worry about it.

It was just that Liu Ming’s Divine Thought was restricted and the Dead Sea below was as dark as ink, making it difficult to see the situation under the water.

Mo Tian fell silent again after asking him to enter the Dead Sea.

At this moment, Liu Ming felt a cluster of something seemingly surge out of his body uncontrollably, causing his spiritual power to tense up.

After the light faded, a figure in a black robe appeared.

“Senior Mo Tian, this is…” Liu Ming said in surprise when he saw Mo Tian appear beside him from the prison space.

“This is just the figure I transformed into by borrowing your spiritual power, so don’t be surprised.” Mo Tian said flatly without even looking at Liu Ming.

Immediately afterward, Mo Tian narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath of air, and slowly savored something. A moment later, Mo Tian murmured,

“It has really appeared!”

Although Mo Tian’s voice was not loud, Liu Ming heard it clearly. He immediately showed a puzzled look on his face. As he was just about to ask the reason, Mo Tian turned his head and said,

“The only thing I can tell you now is that the hand bone should be sealed in the body of an Ancient Xuan Turtle. You need to find out about the rest by yourself. However, you don’t have much time. You must find the hand bone and leave this place within 7 days. Otherwise, once the poisonous mist fills the air again, you may not be able to bear it with your cultivation.”

As soon as Mo Tian finished his sentence, his figure became blurry and turned into black air that rolled back into Liu Ming’s body.

Hearing this, Liu Ming shook his head helplessly. He didn’t try to contact Mo Tian again.

To some extent, Mo Tian and Luo Hu had weird personalities. They preferred to keep some things secret. Since they did not want to say it, it was useless to ask.

Liu Ming looked around the black sea around him. Suddenly, he tapped his waist. After a flash of yellow light, Xie’er appeared before him.

Speaking of which, Xie’er brought the corpses of three Green Snake Race Celestial State beastkin cultivators back to Yin Conversion Gourd. After more than 10 years of devouring, her cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds. Now, Xie’er had reached the Real Pellet State perfect stage. She was only one step away from condensing the nature aspect.

“Xie’er, time is running out now. You and I will split up later and search for any suspicious things in this area. Notify me immediately when you found anything.” Liu Ming instructed.

“Yes, master.” Seeing Liu Ming’s dignified face, Xie’er obediently gave a bow. Under a flash of golden light, Xie’er flew away toward the distance.

After Liu Ming looked around at the spot, he searched in another direction.

After some investigation, 2 days had passed unknowingly.

Liu Ming also discovered some strange places during the period. It took him some effort. He even took the risk to dive into the Dead Sea. However, he still found nothing in the end.

Just when Liu Ming was feeling dejected, Xie’er’s voice suddenly came through via sound transmission,

“Master, I found an anomaly here. Please come and take a look!”

“Xie’er, don’t act rashly. Wait for me first.” Liu Ming heard Xie’er’s hurried tone, and he replied.

Immediately afterward, Liu Ming chanted. After 2 “poofs“, a pair of silver wings appeared behind him instantly.

Liu Ming’s body lightened up, then he turned into a silver light and flew toward the location Xie’er was mentioning.

Since the distance between them was not far, Liu Ming saw a girl in black tulle from a distance only half an hour later. It was Xie’er.

About 10 miles behind Xie’er, there was a small circular island. The island was pitch black. In the equally dark seawater, it was hard to find it without looking closely.

“Master, I found an inconspicuous dark island here. I didn’t pay attention to it at first, but when I was about to leave, I found that the island squirmed slightly. At the same time, an extremely strong demonic qi faintly emanated from it. Out of curiosity, I dived into the sea, only to find that this small island is actually a small part of the giant monster’s back protruding from the sea. Its body is at the bottom of the sea.” Seeing Liu Ming, Xie’er immediately flew toward him while communicating through sound transmission.

“You wait here. I’ll go down and take a look.” Liu Ming was excited. After giving an order, he immediately flew into the sea in a flash.

As a result, when Liu Ming dived into the bottom of the sea, he couldn’t help being shocked by what he saw.

There was a giant monster lying motionless in the dark sea water in the distance. Its head was long and narrow, its back was covered with black bumps, and its skin was rough. It looked like a crocodile that was enlarged by countless times.
