Chapter 3199: Communication

"Sixth Soul Skill, Golden Pistil Flowing Rosy Clouds!"

The mystic heaven chrysanthemum disintegrated once again, transforming into a sky full of steel petals that absorbed soul power from each other and attacked the abyssal creatures like a violent storm...

They had thought they would be unscathed, yet wherever the petals touched, fine cracks appeared, and black blood oozed out...

"What?? It penetrated my skin? How is this possible!!"

"This guy... his strength seems to have increased quite a bit, but just like this, it's still impossible to defeat us!!"

Having said that, they swung their massive bodies, intercepting all the petals...

Upon seeing this, Yueguan lifted his chin and said proudly, "Now do you recognize the prowess of I, an Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls, you abyssal creatures!!"

Fortunately, after deploying the Martial Soul True Body, he could inflict damage on these abyssal creatures, otherwise, they would have been truly doomed!

"Insolent humans, you dare to be so arrogant, I must tear you to shreds!!"

Just two short sentences had turned the abyssal creatures' eyes a deep crimson, as murderous intent completely overtook their wisdom...

Right now, they didn't care if more Soul Master powerhouses were on their way here; their only thought was to kill the weak human before them!!!

...

Xu Sheng watched the sea soul beasts continuously ramming into the ship, yet completely blocked by the Nine-Hearted Begonia...

He couldn't help but cast his gaze towards the ocean below, "Gui Mei has been down there for so long, he must have dealt with that hundred-thousand-year soul beast by now!"

Even though a sea soul beast with a hundred-thousand years of cultivation would get quite a boost in strength underwater, Gui Mei was still a Hyper Douluo; it shouldn't be a problem for him!

No sooner had the words left his mouth, soul power fluctuations emanated from behind him...

Immediately after, Gui Mei's figure materialized out of thin air...

With a "thump," he knelt straight onto the ground, gasping for air...

Especially the multiple gashes on his body, which were frantically bleeding...

"Cough cough..."

Xu Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Elder Gui? What happened to you??"

The injuries the other party suffered were more severe than he had anticipated, so much so that it wouldn't be an overstatement to say he had almost lost half his life!!

Gui Mei suddenly looked up, glaring at Xu Sheng with resentful eyes, "Solve my ass! Xu Sheng, you nearly got me killed! The big guy down there is not an ordinary hundred-thousand-year sea soul beast; its cultivation level is close to two hundred thousand!!"

"If it weren't for using a clone to divert its attention, I would be dead!!"

If he had known it would be like this, he should have abandoned the ship without any hesitation and left immediately!!

Xu Sheng's pupils shrank silently, and he said gravely, "A sea soul beast with a cultivation level close to two hundred thousand years??"

But just now, the aura emitted by that sea soul beast seemed to be only within the range of a hundred thousand years!

Could it be, it had already sensed his and Gui Mei's strength and had deliberately feigned weakness!

All to lure them into the ocean and then hunt them down!

Xu Sheng pursed his lips, feeling somewhat apologetic, "Elder Gui, you have worked hard. I indeed made a misjudgment this time; I didn't expect such a powerful sea soul beast to exist even in this Shallow Sea Region!"

But Gui Mei had no time to listen to his apologies and urged, "Stop the chatter, think about what to do now. The clone I left behind below won't last much longer, and once it disappears, that thing will probably set its sights on this ship immediately!"

"If we don't come up with a solution, we will both perish here today!"

After speaking, the severity of his injuries forced him to cough up another mouthful of blood, staining the deck with a few strands of scarlet...

Xu Sheng took a deep breath and comforted, "Elder Gui, you're too badly injured. Rest here, and leave the rest to me!"

Gui Mei was stunned and said somewhat blankly, "You... what are you planning to do??"

Xu Sheng gave a slight smile, "Of course, I'm going down to kill this sea soul beast. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this sea area!"

Being targeted by a sea soul beast is much more dangerous than being targeted by a soul beast in the Aquipeia Forest!!

Gui Mei widened his eyes, "Don't be foolish, even I am no match for that sea soul beast. If you go, wouldn't that be tantamount to throwing your life away?"

He certainly didn't believe that Xu Sheng, with his plant-class martial soul, could perform stronger in the ocean than he did!!

Xu Sheng walked over and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, since Elder Gui, you specifically came to protect me, at least, I can't let you die here!"

Gui Mei was even more bewildered...

He really wanted to retort, who's protecting whom here! But he also knew that the former wasn't one to joke around lightly!

Perhaps, he really had the ability to slay that sea soul beast!

"Since you're determined to do this, then you must be extremely careful!!"

Xu Sheng simply acknowledged and then walked to the deck and jumped straight into the sea...

Watching him disappear from sight, Gui Mei couldn't help but swallow...

Hopefully, he's not just joking!

...

After entering the sea, Xu Sheng used his soul power to envelope himself and then kept diving deeper...

Following the trail left by Gui Mei's aura, he moved steadily forward...

Finally, a sea soul beast as large as a ship appeared before his eyes!!

The aura it emitted had clearly surpassed that of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast!

However, Xu Sheng's gaze was firmly fixed on the "crystal" atop its head.

"Just as I thought, by using the unknown crystalline body on its head, it can regulate its own aura to attract prey!"

The sea soul beast seemed to notice Xu Sheng's presence and slowly moved its body...

Its eyes, larger than its head, locked onto Xu Sheng in an instant...

"Human... humans... intruding... death!!"

Xu Sheng looked straight at it and said in a deep voice, "Being able to speak human language shows you've gained wisdom. If you retreat on your own, you can save your life!"

Although it wasn't an opponent he couldn't kill, he still hoped to resolve the situation peacefully if he could avoid fighting!

After all, the bloody scent of such a sea soul beast's death could attract even more powerful sea soul beasts!

However, to Xu Sheng's suggestion, the sea soul beast showed no intention of compliance, still speaking in an incredibly terrifying tone, "Mere... human... die... ahhh!"

As the overlord of this sea region, it had never taken orders from humans. All who had ever seen it, without exception, had ended up in its belly!!

Xu Sheng's eyes gradually lost their warmth, and a light blue longsword slowly materialized in his hand...

"It seems there's no way to avoid this. Then, I have no choice but to make you disappear from this world!"

Golden soul rings suddenly emerged, causing the entire ocean to begin churning violently...
