They moved ahead another 2 kilometers and found another large cave. In this cave, there was a stone wall. It was on the stone wall that the ancient teleportation circle was gently shining with splendor....
This place was the only entrance to the Graveyard of the Sea.
The Graveyard of the Sea was originally a sealed space that was linked to a place in the Tong Tian Tower called the Aquamarine Palace.
"God, there really is a graveyard here!" Once sent in, Jiang Ying realized that the sky was dark. Without any waves, not even a ripple, the vast sea seemed like a pool of stagnant water.
Yue Yang felt a murderous intent break out from the bottom of his feet. He reacted quickly and shot to the sky with Jiang Ying in his arms.
Beneath his feet, at almost the same instant, a fish-shaped monster with a ten-meter long body shot out from the surface of the water.
It opened its huge mouth and began to viciously chase after Yue Yang and Jiang Ying!
It moved extremely quickly. It broke the surface of the sea and chased after them like a giant shark out of the water.
At the sight of the deep-sea monster right on their heels, Jiang Ying smirked. Her jade hands condensed a dazzling beam and turned into the head of a dragon.
It shot down like an arrow, straight at the deep-sea monster, biting it in reverse.
A red light flashed in the deep sea monster's eyes. It was terrified of this lethal beam of light. It opened its mouth and sprayed a column of water in an attempt to resist the bite of this giant dragon.
Its body that was in mid-leap turned around immediately and fell back into the sea. Its nimbleness was incredible!
Bang!
A loud noise broke out above the sea.
"I hit it, but it seems unharmed." Hornless Dragon Jiang Ying frowned, her 'Hornless Dragon Bite' was extremely powerful, any creature below Level three Innate would die in a second if hit. To think that even with a direct hit, it was unharmed!
"That in fact is not a monster, but an Innate from back then. He seized the body of a fish-shaped beast and fused to become a monster. I do not know what power he used to have previously, but he is at least a Level 6 Innate now. Not only so, but he also has an extremely durable body. Do not be discouraged, your attack was actually enough to injure him. It is just that his injuries were very light, and coupled with his fast recovery speed...." Yue Yang said calmly.
"Oh no, the impact just now disturbed the entire sea area." Jiang Ying realized that the previously dead quiet sea, after the regrettable exchange with the sea monster, had been awoken by that shock wave, that spread extremely far, even beyond the horizon.
"Let's first take a look. Don't panic!" Yue Yang continued to observe the surroundings.
One, two, three...
Dark shadows of weird shapes and sizes floated to the surface of the water. There were fish-shaped, animal-shaped, and unshapely monsters.
When they noticed Yue Yang and Jiang Ying who were in the air, they migrated towards them, surrounding the two.
Among them a Shark-guy and a who was half man half sea snake fought for Jiang Ying about who was going to take her.
"Neo, while I may not be sure, maybe this little boy has a different opinion!" A man that possessed the most human-like body spoke. With an upper half that was human and a bottom half that was an octopus, this monster seemed to be the leader of this group of monsters.
He held a glittering holy halberd and stood at the very front of the troop. He stared at Yue Yang as if he realized Yue Yang to be his true rival.
Finally, he laughed and retorted Sharkman, and shouted at Yue Yang: "This human boy, you seem to have something to say?"
Hearing that, Yue Yang suddenly laughed.
With his eyes full of mockery, he swept a look at the Sharkman called Neo, "I'll just say one thing. Those who want to touch my woman, I'll kill without mercy!"
"..." Jiang Ying blushed, even though she was aware she was not Yue Yang's woman, when she heard him protect her with such determination, her heart felt like it was going to burst.
"Hahaha! Hahaha..."
More than thirty monsters laughed at Yue Yang's words. They felt that it was more of a joke than a threat.
In front of dozens of enemies, was there any point in saying that?
Kill without mercy?
Sharkman Neo laughed to the point of tears.
He used his tail to slap the water.
He then tried to provoke Yue Yang but when the octopus-guy saw that he frowned.
He felt that Yue Yang was not a simple man. If he was an ordinary hedonistic son of rich parents, he would not dare to speak outrageously in front of so many enemies.
He concluded that this young man's hidden power was stronger than what he could imagine.
Without the battle beginning, the boss, the Octopus Man, already realized that something was wrong.
However, he decided to let the situation develop.
"Whale Zhang, why are you not laughing?" Among the hybrids, a hideous Fishman who looked like a mudskipper turned and asked the largest comrade beside him.
"This was not funny at all!" That giant whale-like black shadow humming replied.
"Oh well, I forgot you have no sense of humor! Oh right, Blast, what do you mean by that expression? Do you really think that Sharkman Neo cannot beat that brat?" Mudskipper-man asked the Swordfish-man on his other side.
"Let's make a bet. Bet a hundred deep-sea gems." That Swordfish-man was most likely an ex-killer.
Mudskipper-man was startled, "Do you bet that the young human will lose or to win? If you bet for his defeat, I will not bet with you. You can only bet that he will win!"
Swordfish-man sneered, "Only a fool would bet he will lose!"
Mudskipper-man exploded in anger, his face flushed red, and the huge black spot on his face turned purple. He shouted, "Fine! If I win, that bottle of red sand that you treasure will belong to me!"
Swordfish-man nodded, indicating agreement.
He snorted, his face was calm as if the ending was in his favor. Mudskipper-man was furious.
While they conversed, Yue Yang had already whispered and instructed Jiang Ying on what to do. Jiang Ying nodded her head in agreement. Without realizing it, Jiang Ying who used to be extremely assertive started to listen to Yue Yang's arrangements. She had started to depend on him. Jiang Ying raised her aura. Upon seeing her ability grow from a Lesser Innate all the way to a Level five Innate with a lot more leeway, the hybrid fishermen could not help but shiver in terror.
But she didn't lift a finger and floated higher into the sky, pulling out of the battlefield.
