174 At The Gate

We crossed through the pathways of the underwater sect, going back through the main pathway we came from, and while we were going through the tubes, I saw the One-Eyed Kraken, who was smashed against one of the domes, visibly shake and move its limbs. It appears that it will be regaining its consciousness shortly. Before that's done, we'll have to move out of the sect and away from the Palace of the Deeps area.

As we were moving about, I threw several of my explosive talismans all over the place.

"What are you doing?" asked Wu Di.

"Oh, making excavation a huge pain for anyone else. Once the Sea Beasts hear the commotion here, they'll come investigating making every cultivator who comes here think twice about chasing after us and more about surviving."

"Oh, that's rather evil."

"One has to do what they must to survive," I replied in a grin.
