Chapter 14: Gu Xu's epiphany

The next moment, the spatial crack touched Haijiao's body.

Even though they possess bodies stronger than armor, they are still vulnerable to the power of the laws of space.

The first few sea Jiao to rush up were cut into several pieces like cutting meat.

Scarlet blood gushed from their wounds, adding a mixed color to the sea.

Gu Xu took the opportunity to pass through the gap between them and swam straight to the inconspicuous ravine behind them.

At the bottom of the ravine, there was an irregularly shaped stone that shimmered with silver light.

"Astrolabe fragments." Gu Xu said silently in his heart.

The closer he got to the "stone", the clearer the invisible call in his mind became, and the "astrolabe" in his hand vibrated more violently, as if he couldn't wait to become whole again.

So Gu Xu accelerated his dive.

When he reached the bottom of the ditch, he reached out and grabbed the glittering shard.

Suddenly, the "astrolabe" and the fragment seemed to have turned into two magnets, sucking each other together with a "snap", and then merging into a whole, without a single gap in sight.

At the same time, a powerful force poured into his body from the "astrolabe", along his meridians, and surged throughout his body.

He could truly feel that his cultivation was growing rapidly at an unprecedented rate.

On top of that, there was a lot of new knowledge and memories in his mind—information that didn't belong to him, but somehow made him feel familiar.

Gu Xu didn't linger too long in this submarine ravine.

After seeing the extra Xuanwu Star Domain Diagram on the surface of the "Astrolabe", he used his body to speed upward, preparing to leave the dark and mysterious deep sea.

The injured sea Jiao has entered a state of manic rage.

They were scarred and entangled with each other's bodies, and because they couldn't find any trace of Gu Xu, they fought with each other.

"A bunch of beasts with low IQs." Gu Xu commented in his heart.

Everything went much smoother than expected.

Except for these sea jiao, he basically encountered no obstacles along the way.

This made him frown slightly.

Because the result of his previous divination was the image of "water mines" of "first difficulty and then solution" - but now, this so-called "difficulty" still seems to have not come.

Just when Gu Xu was a little confused, a strong undercurrent suddenly surged by his side, like an invisible hand, dragging him deeper into the sea.

Gu Xu's heart froze, and he immediately turned on the True Yuan to stabilize his body.

He felt that if his reaction was a little slower, he would be pressed against the bottom of the sea by the terrifying current.

…………

Zhao Yan waited quietly on the shore.

She sat on the edge of the cliff, her slender legs dangling in the air and swaying gently, the cold wind stirring the hem of her robe, and her snow-like skin disappearing from time to time.

At this time, only a few minutes had passed since Gu Xu jumped into the sea.

But in her feelings it was extraordinarily long.

Her gaze kept falling on the pitch-black sea level.

With the powerful divine soul power far beyond that of the monks of the same realm, even if she couldn't see her five fingers, she could keenly capture all the movements on the sea.

The sea was very calm at first, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.

There are only shallow waves on its surface, like the wrinkles on the old man's face.

But after some time passed, a strong wind suddenly blew. These waves on the sea suddenly turned into moving hills.

Zhao Yan stood up from the edge of the cliff and stabilized her body with Zhenyuan.

The wind ruffled her hair, and her robe rattled with the sound of hunting.

She glanced up at the sky.

The sky was black as far as the eye could see, but at this time, light seeped in, as if someone had pierced a hole.

The words Gu Xu had said came to her mind: "The sky above our heads is actually the wings of Kunpeng." ”

The wings of the Kunpeng are larger than the mountains, so they are enough to hide the sky and the sun, so that the north will not see the sun for many years.

But now it's dawn in the North Underworld.

If Zhao Yan guessed correctly, it was because Kunpeng waved its wings.

The ensuing scene was even more spectacular.

From Zhao Yan's point of view, it can be described as "the sky collapsed and fell into the sea".

Little by little, the blackness of the sky is fading, and the sea level is rising rapidly. The raging tsunami, higher than the cliff beneath her feet, was as deafening as thunder.

Zhao Yan once learned from the book that Kunpeng Kunpeng is "Kunpeng" when it is turned into a fish, and "Peng" when it is turned into a bird.

At this moment, does this astonishing change in the North Underworld mean that this "winged cloud hanging from the sky" Dapeng bird will change back to the form of "Kun" and return to the sea?

"Is Gu Xu okay?"

"Did he find what he was looking for?"

"Will he be able to go ashore before Kunpeng returns to the sea?"

“……”

Zhao Yan thought worriedly, and glanced at the talisman seal that Gu Xu gave him in his hand - at present, this talisman seal has not been self-immolated and is still intact, proving that Gu Xu is still alive and well.

At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from the sea, came to her side, tugged at her sleeve, and said very quickly: "Hurry up, the sea is going to flood." ”

This person is Gu Xu.

Before Zhao Yan could speak, she saw the magic weapon engraved with intricate patterns in Gu Xu's hand shine, and then she was dragged into the space passage by Gu Xu.

When her vision became clear again, she found herself on a mountain peak nearly a hundred miles away, the previous cliff had been submerged by the sea, and the huge waves crashed against the rocks next to her, making a terrifying sound.

"I almost got into the belly of the kun." After a short silence, Gu Xu spoke softly.

"That's really dangerous," Zhao Yan said, "How did you escape?" ”

"Actually, it's not difficult to escape," Gu Xu replied, "Kun is a creature that evolved from the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and it doesn't have the desire to prey. The problem is that it's so large that when it opens its mouth, almost the entire ocean floor is its mouth. A few of the sea Jiao that had fought with me were dizzy and followed the undercurrent of the sea bottom into their digestive tract. ”

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and glanced at the "astrolabe" in his hand: "Fortunately, after I found the new fragment of this thing, I was able to teleport more times than before, and the distance was longer than before, so I rushed towards the sea with my life, and finally got out of danger." ”

Zhao Yan listened to his narration silently, imagining the thrilling picture, and couldn't help but say: "It's good to come back safely." ”

Gu Xu's gaze was still on the sea.

Now, the North Underworld has submerged several surrounding mountains, and the area has become much larger than before.

After a while, he sighed lightly and sighed, "Miss Zhao, do you feel like this?" We are in front of this giant kun, just like ordinary people in front of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?

"They are ruthless and unjust, they only operate according to established laws. But one insignificant move could kill the ants. ”

Just as Zhao Yan was thinking about how to respond to him, she saw Gu Xu gently patting her shoulder: "Miss Zhao, I have to bother you to help me protect the Fa again." I had some new realizations. ”
