“What a heavy rain! And from the looks of it, it won’t stop for a day or two!”

Su Changkong was watching the torrential downpour outside the window, which was so intense that even the visibility blurred, making it hard to distinguish the scenery beneath the rain. He couldn’t help but be astonished.

This was a rare heavy rain that Su Changkong had encountered since coming to this world.

And just as Su Changkong predicted, the heavy rain lasted for three days and nights.

Even within the Giant Whale Gang’s territory, the water had nearly reached waist height. One could imagine that the outside world was most likely suffering a flood disaster. For ordinary people who relied on farming to survive, this downpour was nothing short of a nightmare!

While man-made disasters could be mitigated, natural disasters like this were beyond the power of humans to stop!

The rain stopped, and the sunshine poured down again. The martial artists of the Giant Whale Gang were busy cleaning and dealing with the floodwater—everything was starting over, and Su Changkong, as usual, got up early to practice alchemy.

“Sigh… Such a prolonged rainstorm is rare, almost unseen in the past twenty years!”

“Don’t mention it! A few days ago, several ships of our Giant Whale Gang that relied on the port sank during the storm, causing no small loss! Even worse, a merchant ship loaded with goods was sucked into a whirlpool formed on the seabed on its return journey during the storm, resulting in a catastrophic wreck with heavy casualties! That area of the sea will have to be avoided for some time!”

As Su Changkong headed to the Pill Refining Room to practice alchemy, he overheard many Giant Whale Gang disciples discussing the news while dealing with the water accumulation.

The three-day and night storm had kept Su Changkong almost entirely confined to his room practicing martial arts, so he didn’t feel much of its impact. However, this disaster of almost biblical proportions had indeed caused massive destruction within the Ink Forest Prefecture City.

Some disaster victims were displaced and homeless, and the losses of the Giant Whale Gang were immense!

“A whirlpool? An undersea whirlpool?”

Su Changkong also took notice of the incident mentioned in their conversation.

Due to the heavy rain, an anomaly had occurred in the Blue Rain Sea— a whirlpool had formed on the seabed. From the surface, there seemed to be no disturbance, but any ship that got close would be sucked in by a powerful force to the bottom of the sea, leading to its destruction and loss of lives.

“This undersea whirlpool… it might help my cultivation! Perhaps I should go take a look!”

An idea flashed through Su Changkong’s mind, and he kept this matter in mind; it might be the opportunity he needed for a breakthrough in his martial arts.

Immediately, Su Changkong proceeded to the Pill Refining Room where he practiced alchemy all day. In the evening, he went to find Sikong Huang to inquire about the undersea whirlpool.

“Undersea whirlpool?” Sikong Huang was somewhat surprised when Su Changkong took the initiative to meet her and asked about the whirlpool.

But Sikong Huang informed Su Changkong truthfully about what she knew, saying, “This undersea whirlpool is peculiar. It formed during the storm and destroyed one of our Giant Whale Gang merchant ships. Martial artists in the Qi-Blood Realm have dived down to see if they could salvage anything, but the whirlpool reaches below one thousand meters. Even martial artists in the Qi-Blood Realm can’t stay down there for long, so they had to give up.”

“Hmm… I want to go check out that place. Can you arrange for two men to take me there? For the Pill Refining Room, you can have an alchemist from the Sikong Family cover for me.”

Su Changkong nodded, wanting to check it out for himself.

“Of course, I can arrange for two elite members of the Sikong Family to accompany you.” Sikong Huang naturally did not refuse such a modest request and agreed.

That very evening, Su Changkong headed to the Giant Whale Gang’s harbor. With two disciples rowing ahead, he took a medium-sized ironwood boat towards the area in the Blue Rain Sea where the whirlpool was located.

Following a heavy rain, the Blue Rain Sea was clear and tranquil, seemingly normal.

“Master Su, the area is just ahead. We can’t get any closer, any nearer and it would be too dangerous!”

A Giant Whale Gang disciple accompanying him urgently warned.

Su Changkong stared at the calm sea ahead. The water only rippled slightly with the breeze, showing no signs of abnormality from the surface. But the two Giant Whale Gang disciples were extremely cautious, fearful of approaching too closely and risking destruction.

“Hmm, I understand. Wait here; I will go down and check the situation.”

Su Changkong nodded, and without waiting for any reaction from the others, he leaped into the sea, diving toward the depths below.

As Su Changkong descended, his breath of True Qi pulled him down like a stone of immense density, continually sinking deeper and deeper.

The seabed is undoubtedly a no-go zone for humans without proper diving equipment, and even ordinary people skilled at diving can only descend a hundred meters before it becomes life-threatening.

The depths of several hundred to over a thousand meters were unreachable for most martial artists!

As Su Changkong descended further, passing hundred meter marks and then thousand… the light dimmed, and he felt a crushing pressure bearing down on him.

At eleven hundred meters, twelve hundred meters… finally, around two thousand meters down, Su Changkong strained his eyes. He could see something amid the dimly lit water that was almost impossible to see clearly.

In that direction, water swirled, forming a vortex that churned ceaselessly. With his keen senses, Su Changkong made out seaweed, the carcasses of fish and shrimp, and even ship fragments amidst the whirlpool’s rotation, illuminated by faint light.

“This undersea whirlpool… must be several dozen miles in diameter, right? If I practice the Turtle Breath Technique inside the whirlpool, could it enhance the technique to a new level?”

There was a glint of something unusual in Su Changkong’s eyes.

Su Changkong’s Turtle Breath Technique had reached the Eighth Realm. Despite taking the Qi Increasing Pill daily, his progress was slowing, and the pill’s effects were weakening. Also, at his current level of Inner Strength, gathering even a little more True Qi became increasingly difficult.
