Chapter 468: Assassination in the Depths of the Sea

Scattered throughout his journey for half a day, the vast sea suddenly turned turbulent with thunderous roars and flashes of lightning. Strong gusts of wind swept across, creating massive waves.
"Could this be the precursor to a giant whirlpool appearing" Scattered could feel an attractive force pulling the water around him towards one spot.
Right now, Scattered didn't want to enter the giant whirlpool, so he quickly jumped out of the water, transforming back into his human form. He expelled a stream of air currents underneath him to lift his body aloft, stabilizing himself against the wind by releasing the wind force from his Dragon True Qi. He merged with the wild winds and floated forward.
Scattered suddenly noticed that a forceful suction seemed to have picked up momentum, pulling clouds and wind from the sky towards him from afar.
The sky was darkened by numerous bursts of lightning, illuminating the tumultuous and terrifying sea. Scattered suddenly caught sight of a whirlpool in front not too far away on the sea surface.
The whirlpool was originally small, only dozens of feet wide, but it gradually expanded to thousands and tens of thousands of feet across.
“Is this the giant whirlpool” Scattered saw a lightning-filled cloud column, accompanied by waves, being pulled into the middle of that giant whirlpool from up above.
Long Xiuyi said, "The giant whirlpool is absorbing the surrounding Qi and gathering a very powerful energy underground in the sea. I assume that the entrance to the White Tiger Profound Realm is located at the bottom of the sea. Only by absorbing this large amount of Qi can one have enough energy to open a passage into the Profound Realm."
Scattered used all his energy to懸浮 in mid-air, avoiding being sucked into the vortex while gradually approaching it. He wanted to see how he could descend underground.
After the giant whirlpool devoured the day's worth of Qi, it suddenly stopped absorbing but still spun frenziedly. At this moment, Scattered saw a black hole in the middle of the whirlpool from above with bursts of light occasionally popping out below.
“Hurry, go in!” Long Xiuyi shouted.
Scattered knew it was a good time to enter now. Seeing the flames suddenly bursting forth from under his feet, an explosion erupted beneath him, blasting a fireball into the sky. At that moment, Scattered used the explosive power to plummet vertically downward through the giant vortex's black hole.
After entering, Scattered's head was hanging downwards. He saw that there appeared to be a wilderness below, more like an island, surrounded by water but trapped in place due to some force preventing the sea from flowing inside.
Scattered quickly landed on this underwater island, realizing that it was huge and shielded by a powerful barrier, blocking any water from entering. The top of the island directly above the whirlpool was where he landed.
Suddenly, Scattered sensed a heavy surge of destructive Qi coming from above. This alarmed him and hurriedly flew in one direction, reaching his maximum speed to stay away from the area affected by that destructive Qi.
Although this island was underwater, it wasn't pitch-black but rather darkened. Scattered could see that the destructive Qi was accompanied by streams of lightning descending from above the island, dissipating upon reaching the ground.
“Looks like it'll take some time to gather enough energy to open the Profound Realm's door,” said Whitey.
They had confirmed now that there was indeed a Profound Realm underwater, possibly being the White Tiger Profound Realm.
Previously, when Scattered and Liu Meng'er gathered the three divine weapons together, they could clearly sense something calling them near逍遙仙海. It was a subtle feeling that convinced him and Liu Meng'er that the White Tiger Divine Weapon could be found in this direction.
“Someone's coming! Three people!” Long Xiuyi reminded Scattered.
There were actually people down here, which was surprising to Scattered. He knew that he had been noticed and pursued by someone as he descended earlier.
This was a flat ground underwater without mountains or forests, leaving Scattered with no place to hide.
“What kind of strength are they” Scattered asked, and three people appeared beside him almost instantly, surrounding him.
Long Xiuyi didn't need to answer; Scattered already knew their strength from their Qi aura. Based on the intensity of the True Qi, he guessed they were in the middle or late stages of Spirit Martial Realm.
What shocked Scattered more was that these three people were wearing golden robes, two of them being middle-aged, and one an elder. Judging by their attire, Scattered deduced that they were part of the Holy Light Sect.
The members of the Holy Light Sect had arrived here much earlier than expected, leading Scattered to suspect a connection between them and逍遙仙海.
Although逍遙仙海 refused to join the Holy Light Sect during their previous Heroes Conference, who knew what was going on in Xiao Ziliang's heart Xiao Ziliang nearly became the patriarch of Taiwu Sect, and by building逍遙仙海, he was merely trying to experience being a patriarch, aspiring for more power. However, he sought to make逍遙仙海 stronger and become the largest sect on Chenwu Continent, making it reasonable for him to ally with the Holy Light Sect.
The old man from the Holy Light Sect said in a stiff cold laugh, "Never expected that I'd encounter First-Young Powerhouse Scattered and the renowned First-Young Alchemy Master!" Eyes full of murderous intent, his voice echoed.
The other two Holy Light Sect martial artists were similarly filled with murderous intent, knowing that the sect leader of the Holy Light Sect deeply hated Taiwu Sect and that Scattered was a thorn in their eyes. Killing him would definitely be a great achievement.
Now, under immense pressure, Scattered knew that all three of these martial artists were very strong. He was not afraid against one, but defeating the trio together would be a challenging feat.
Moreover, being underwater, anyone who killed Scattered could clean up the mess and avoid leaving any evidence. With their murderous eyes, Scattered felt his own anger boiling.
If they wanted to kill him, he would ensure that no one survived!
“Let's go!” The old man shouted, and the trio moved together. Each took out a sharp sword in their hands, infusing powerful True Qi into the long swords, causing them to vibrate loudly as they pierced through the air with a harsh killing intent, striking Scattered like lightning.
As the three Holy Light Sect martial artists struck, their bodies exuded waves of intense killing intent, revealing that they were ruthless killers who wouldn't hesitate.
Scattered had already prepared for this, his body shaking as he condensed a玄武羅天罩. However, the True Qi condensed on their swords was extremely violent, causing a strong shockwave when they pierced Scattered's shield, dispersing it.
Each of the three martial artists was stronger than Scattered, and they attacked simultaneously. Now, all he sought was to escape in one piece!
The three martial artists of the Holy Light Sect were delighted when they pierced through Scattered's shield. They initially thought they had stabbed through the divine disciple, but they soon felt that their sword tips hit a very stiff object, preventing them from piercing Scattered's body.
Although Scattered's玄武金剛甲 shielded him from being stabbed by the three swords, the force still entered his body, causing his organs to constrict and forcing him to cough up a large mouthful of blood.
“I'll come back for you!” Scattered roared fiercely, his voice cold and filled with killing intent!
His body suddenly exploded in white light, powerful dragon power erupted from his body, forming a very intense energy wave that sent the three flying apart.
Under such serious injuries, Scattered was still using dragon power, causing him to cough up more blood. However, he now had a chance to escape.
“Let me handle this,” sighed Long Xiuyi, transforming into a beam of white light, enveloping Scattered's body and flying towards the exit at the top of the island.魔一樣!”月兒終於看不見沈翔了。她用爪子去抓他,能抓住衣服但就是看不見。“連氣息也不存在了。要是他變不回來,那豈不是……”月兒不敢想象生活在一個彆人看不見自己的世界裡,那會讓她瘋掉的。“誰說變不回來!”沈翔突然笑道。聽見沈翔的聲音,月兒立即看過去,隻看到沈翔的一雙眼睛懸浮著。這讓她嚇得“喵”地大叫一聲。“哈哈……”沈翔哈哈大笑起來,然後將自己身體全部顯現出來。剛纔他隻是露出自己的兩隻眼睛。“冇事了...
