The icy sea engulfed the demon in an instant, and in her panic, she remembered the breath-holding technique she had learned from Youyan on the road. Originally, it was intended to be used to steal water pearls, but I didn't expect it to play a role at this time.
The demon used the ghostly energy to create a translucent light black bubble and put its head inside. In this way, not only is your breathing not affected, but you can also open your eyes and carefully observe the situation in the water.
The scene under the East China Sea is very different from what the demon sees under the surface of the lake outside the Ghost Valley.
There is not a single fish in sight except the water. Even seaweed, shellfish, shrimp and crabs are nowhere to be seen.
The demon couldn't help but think, "Could it be that they have all been eaten up by the people living along the coast?" ”
The demon thought of Bei Ke, who was devouring a feast at the dinner table, and he was even more determined in this idea.
In a short time, the demon was dragged to the sand at the bottom of the sea by the hand made of water.
Although there is no light that can penetrate such a deep seabed, and although the demon is a little breathless by the seawater, when his feet step on the sand again, the demon still feels a lot more relaxed inexplicably.
A dark flame ignited in the palm of the demon demon, which not only dispelled the darkness, but even the nearby sea water, when it encountered this black flame, made a detour from a distance.
"I didn't expect that this ghost fire technique is also very useful." The demon sighed, "If you can leave here alive, you must learn a few more spells from Youyan." ”
"But maybe I will before I lose my memory." The demon thought for a moment, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have learned so quickly." ”
Under the weight of the sea, the demon could not swim upstream, so she had to step on the sand and rocks at the bottom of the sea and walk towards the shore step by step.
I won't fall into the trenches of the deep sea, and there are cliffs on both sides.
However, the reality is that when it comes to bad things, demons really come true.
She walked in two different directions, and at the end of her walk was a steep stone wall.
The demon sat on the ground in some discouragement, and as expected, she would be trapped here until she died.
The demon sat dejectedly for a long time, grabbing handfuls of sand and letting them drift away with the current.
I don't know how long it took, but the demon suddenly stopped what he was doing.
Because she found that the sand in her hand always drifted out in one direction.
The demon slowly stood up and looked in the direction of the sea sand drifting.
The dark waters seem to be endless.
The demon flicked its fingers, and a small ball of flame slowly drifted towards the distance as far as the eye could see, and was finally swallowed up by the dark current.
The demon was pleasantly surprised to find that the current here was constantly surging in one direction, as if to tell her that the way out might be ahead.
So the demon followed the direction of the current and began to move forward with difficulty.
She didn't know how long she had walked, and in this cold and dark trench, she went from despair to renewed hope, and now hope gradually dissipated with the endless current, like the sand flowing in the palm of her hand, which can never be held.
Just when the demon was physically and mentally exhausted and was about to give up again, she suddenly heard a deafening rumble not far away.
This voice is very loud, even after the barrier of layers of seawater, when it reaches the ears of the demon, it still sounds like a muffled thunder.
The demon was in good spirits, and she held her breath and looked in the direction from which the voice came, but unfortunately she could see nothing but the boundless darkness and the sea.
The demon was unwilling to give up hope of leaving this place, and she did not care about the danger that might hide in the depths of the darkness, and walked cautiously towards the source of the sound.
Within a few steps, the demon found himself climbing.
Although the tilt was not large, it still gave the demon hope of leaving the trench, and she unconsciously quickened her pace.
The loud noise from before was getting closer and closer, and the demon gradually noticed that the sound was very regular, and each time it sounded, it was almost the same time, like a human breath.
Or, more precisely, like someone is snoring.
Could it be that there is still a sleeping giant imprisoned at the bottom of the East Sea?
But almost instantly, the demon dismissed the idea, because she had a more reasonable idea.
No one knows if there is a sleeping giant at the bottom of the East China Sea, but there must be a lazy, sleepy beast here.
"Could it be that I inadvertently broke into He Luoyu's territory?" The demon couldn't help but think.
If so, it seems that he has been a blessing in disguise.
The demon was not carried away by the joy, she slowed down, put away the flame in her palm, drained her breath, and continued to move forward with ten thousand cares.
Suddenly, the demon stepped on something hard and round, she slowly squatted down, and when she touched it with her hand, she realized that it was a cold jar.
The demon took a deep breath and summoned a small ball of fire from his palm, illuminating the jar.
The pale gold reflection, although dull, is so charming, and the body of the can is also carved with delicate patterns.
It looks like a priceless city.
The demon put the jar back in its place, and the moment she raised her head, she just saw the golden reflection of the stars because the fire in her hand had not yet dissipated. In the dark water, it is like a star that fills the night sky.
In front of her was a hill made of gold.
Mountains of treasures have been sunk at the bottom of the sea, who else but He Luoyu?
The demon was sure that these must be treasures collected by He Luoyu.
This also means that there is a high probability that the pearl is also hidden in this pile of treasures.
But what do you have to do to find the pearl from the mountain of treasures? The demon was confused for a while.
She rummaged for a while as if by chance, and found nothing.
The demon was not discouraged, but continued to gather his breath and climb towards the top of the "Treasure Mountain".
When she finally reached the top of the mountain where the treasures were stacked, she was stunned by what she saw.
At the other end of the mountain is an endless sea of stars.
Countless sparkling night pearls are dotted with endless gold and silver jewels, decorating an entire seabed into a brilliant starry sky.
A monster with a fish's head and ten bodies bigger than all the creatures and buildings the demon had ever seen was sleeping on its stomach on countless treasures.
The demon hurriedly extinguished the flame in the palm of his hand, and then the light of the night pearl slowly moved towards the "mountain".
The sleeping He Luoyu's lips opened slightly, and with the sound of snoring, he couldn't stop sucking in the seawater, and then discharged it from his two gills.
Seeing this, the demon finally understood why the direction of the ocean current always flowed in this direction.
But these don't seem to help you find the pearl, and in the face of such a large number of treasures, the demon knows that it is a fantasy to find the pearl by luck alone.
