This assassin is upright

Chapter 281 The true appearance of the seabed, the mysterious existence (asking for monthly tickets!)

"puff…"

Lu Wen lay on the ground motionlessly, spitting out water from his mouth like a fountain. His bloated belly gradually returned to its original shape as the water was spit out.

"I can't do it anymore..." Lu Wen's eyes were wide open, and he looked extremely haggard. "I don't want to go to the sea again. I really can't do it anymore."

"Okay, you don't have to go down to fish for octopus anymore." Yu Zhun couldn't help laughing when he saw his appearance.

I don’t know how many times I have fished, but just now Lu Wen stayed in the sea for half an hour and didn’t see any trace of any octopus monster.

In addition, the total wish power gained by Yu Zhun and the other four exceeded 20. After deducting the cost of moving the island, they made a net profit of 10.

Hearing that he didn't need to go into the sea anymore, Lu Wen sat up with a somersault and instantly recovered to full health, "Really?"

"That's right." Yu Zhun nodded and looked down, "Let's make adjustments. The five of us will go to the bottom of the sea together."

"If nothing unexpected happens, the creatures on the seabed have become extremely weak after our torment."

"This is the best time to find the last piece."

The others nodded in agreement, with anticipation in their eyes.

Every one of them has experienced being shocked by the existence of the seabed. Now they finally have the opportunity to get close to the seabed and see what the other party looks like.

After adjusting for a few minutes, Yu Zhun and the other four all recovered to their peak condition. After looking at each other, they jumped into the water at the same time.

Accompanied by the continuous "plop" sounds, the island became completely silent.

When they entered the sea, Yu Zhun and the other four almost simultaneously locked their eyes on the seabed.

After waiting for a long time, the expected gaze never appeared, and no octopus monster tried to approach them.

It seems that what Lu Wen said was right. The existence on the seabed has entered a period of weakness, and even the octopus monster has been temporarily killed.

but…

Even so, we must never let our guard down.

After all, if the other party is smart enough, they are likely to take advantage of the situation and save some strength to catch them all in one fell swoop.

After gesturing a few times in the sea to signal others to be careful, Yu Zhun took the lead and gave up control of his own floating.

In the water without buoyancy, his body sank rapidly, getting closer and closer to the dark seabed.

The other four people quickly followed, and Hermod even took out a lantern-shaped wish-power item. With the infusion of wish power, bright light illuminated the five people and the surrounding scenery.

Finally, when everyone stepped on real objects again, a corner of the vast seabed appeared before their eyes.

It was a sloping arc-shaped ground, and the touch underfoot was completely different from ordinary soil, it was exceptionally cold.

Yu Zhun casually touched the ground and felt a strange roughness. This feeling was a bit like...

Rust!

Could it be that this is some kind of metal?
Thinking of this, Yu Zhun pulled out his dagger and scraped the ground with slight force, trying to peel off the rust on the surface.

After a while, he completely peeled off an entire piece of rust covering about one square meter. Looking at the blood-red metal under the rust and the mysterious lines carved on it, Yu Zhun's heart trembled slightly.

What is this?
The other four people also noticed Yu Zhun's actions and discoveries. After looking at each other, they immediately began to peel off the rust under their feet.

More and more blood-red metal with patterns appeared.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Zhun looked into the darkness further away and said, "Let's take a look nearby."

Several people nodded at the same time, chose a direction and continued to move forward.

As they got further and further away, the metal beneath their feet tilted at an increasingly steep angle until it was almost impossible to stand.

The expressions of Yu Zhun and the other four gradually became strange.

They looked at the steep curve in front of them that was almost a cliff. After a moment of silence, they all started to return the same way.

Soon, they came to the place where they had peeled off the rust before, but they did not stop at all and walked to the other side.

Seeing the equally steep curve at the other end, Yu Zhun and his companions looked even more strange. After looking at each other, Yu Zhu asked with some uncertainty, "Are we standing on a tilted and collapsed column?"

If this was a pillar, then its radius was likely to be more than a kilometer, which gave Yu Zhun and his four companions the illusion that they were standing on the ground.

"Let's look in the other direction."

Yu Zhun pointed in a direction perpendicular to the previous one.

If they were walking on the side of a cylinder just now, then the direction they chose at this moment should be a straight road leading to the lower end of the cylinder, which might be the real seabed.

The other people obviously had the same idea as Yu Zhun, and walked down step by step towards the expected slope of the cylinder.

However, after walking about a few thousand meters, the expressions of several people changed at the same time.

What appeared before their eyes was not the seabed as expected, but a road that gradually curved to the side.

If this was a huge column that collapsed, how come it was bent?

The five people exchanged glances, and Yu Zhun made a decision.

“Just follow the bend.”

He wanted to see what was under their feet.

Time passed minute by minute. On the silent seabed, Yu Zhun and four other people stood in a row, moving forward bit by bit along the metal under their feet.

In the end, they were back to where they started.

Looking at the blood-red metal with rust peeling off under their feet, the five people fell silent at the same time.

After going around in circles, they ended up back where they started.

"I think I know where we are." Yu Zhun was silent for a moment, then said faintly, "If I'm not mistaken, we are not on a cylinder."

"We are on an oval metal ring."

"And this metal ring is just the tip of the iceberg." He paused, "Remember the two special locations we encountered just now?"

The other four nodded subconsciously.

While going around this circle, they encountered two special situations. There were vertical pillars of the same thickness appearing beside the road.

Yu Zhun took out a piece of wire from his backpack, cut off a small piece of it, and then squeezed it hard into a small metal ring.

Without stopping, he immediately pinched out two more metal rings, and finally buckled the three metal rings together and held the two ends.

"Look, do we now look like we are circling around this metal ring in the middle?"

Hearing this, the expressions of the other four people changed at the same time.

"You mean..." Yu Zhu's expression became interesting, "We are actually standing on a chain now?"

"Yes." Yu Zhun nodded, "The reason why we can't feel it is a chain is because the scale of this chain is too large."

But compared to the size of the chain, what is more worrying is the meaning of the chain itself.

His eyes followed the direction of the chain, looking in a certain direction.

How many chains like this are there on the seabed?

And what kind of terrifying existence would it be to be able to trap a person at the bottom of the sea with a huge chain with a metal buckle that is thousands of meters thick?

"Let's go."

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhun quickened his pace.

After confirming the situation under their feet, things became much simpler. They just needed to climb along the chain all the way to the end.
-
Tianxu Holy World, Jade City.

"boom!!!"

With another loud bang, the already completely ruined Yucheng was once again hit by the aftermath of Dongtu and Longpan, and countless ruins were reduced to dust. Fortunately, Yu Zhun and the other two had already killed all the believers in Yucheng, otherwise they would have to bear such a horrible aftermath.

Yucheng believers: "Listen to me and thank you..."

"Long Pan, stop!" Dong Tu struck out fiercely with a stick, smashing a corner of the small tower in Long Pan's hand, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Today, only one of you and me can survive!" Long Pan shouted loudly, with rage surging in his eyes.

Dongtu's expression suddenly turned gloomy and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

This idiot!

Even now, people still think that he was the one who killed Zefeng.

Although he wanted to beat the other person to death with a stick, Dongtu knew that this was impossible.

Long Pan is qualified to challenge him, so his talent must be strong.

If Dongtu is considered the number one among the younger generation of disciples in Tianxu Divine Palace, then Long Pan is undoubtedly the number two.

It is for this reason that after Dongtu failed in the [Tianxu Trial], Long Pan wanted to replace him.

At this moment, Dongtu wanted to completely suppress Long Pan, unless he played all his cards, but he didn't want to go that far.

After all, he had not yet killed Yu Zhun and others, nor had he obtained the most important opportunity in the [Tianxu Holy Realm].

Thinking of this, Dongtu took a deep breath and was about to say something.

Suddenly, two crisp "click" sounds were heard.

Not only Dongtu, but even Long Pan who was about to take action had a drastic change of expression.

They took out two broken life cards at the same time, and their expressions became increasingly ugly.

"Can you calm down now?" Dong Tu said in a deep voice, "Miao Chen and Qing Wu are both your people, how could they die in the secret realm?"

"How should I know?" Long Pan, who was already furious, now had an urge to vomit blood.

He left such an opportunity of the secret realm to these two guys, and ran to Yucheng alone, but he didn't see anyone from the Palace of Gods and Demons, and his two junior brothers and sisters were killed in the secret realm?

This is a case of losing both the wife and the army!
Dongtu was silent for a moment, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Miaochen and Qingwu are both considered to be strong among the disciples of the Divine Palace. They also have detailed information about the [Tianxu Holy Realm]. How could they be easily defeated in a mere secret realm?
Is it...

Is it the extremely rare sealed secret realm mentioned in the intelligence?
Dongtu frowned slightly.

If it is that kind of secret place, there will indeed be unpredictable dangers.

But given their strength, they shouldn't have died almost at the same time.

Unless there is another group of people in the secret realm, and the secret realm itself is extremely dangerous, it is possible that the two people would be killed instantly.

Another group of people...

An idea vaguely emerged in Dongtu's mind.

He took out the communication prop and connected it to the communication prop on the other end.

Soon, the voice of Fila, the leader of the Azure Dragon Cult, came with a bit of fatigue, "Master Dongtu, what do you want?"

"Your people have been searching for quite some time." Dong Tu said in a deep voice, "Did you find any clues?"

There was silence on the other end of the call, and then Fila said with some frustration, "No suspicious whereabouts were found."

"It's like these guys just disappeared into thin air."

As the leader of the sect personally took action but gained nothing, it was also a big blow to Fila.

After hearing Fila's answer, Dongtu's guess became more certain.

He took a deep breath and looked up at Long Pan on the other side.

"Just Ze Feng is not enough to make me resort to such shameful means."

"Whether you believe it or not, the people who killed Miaochen and Qingwu are the same group of people who killed Zefeng."

"Since entering the [Tianxu Holy Realm], four Tianxu Divine Palace disciples have been killed."

"And there are still no casualties in the Palace of Gods and Demons."

"Now is not the time for you and me to fight."

"Find those guys first and kill them."

"When all the players from the Palace of Gods and Demons are cleared out, I will let you know the difference in strength between you and me."

Long Pan was silent for a moment.

The death of two disciples in a short period of time made him completely sober.

"it is good."
-
"I have a feeling we're almost there."

At the bottom of the secret sea, Yu Zhun lowered his voice and spoke.

They had been walking along this huge iron chain for a long time.

At the end of the chain, an extremely oppressive and terrifying atmosphere was becoming stronger and stronger as it approached.

Finally, the existence of the end of the chain became clear.

After Hermod released countless lanterns to illuminate the surrounding sea, they finally saw everything clearly.

It was a humanoid figure sitting cross-legged on the bottom of the sea, so huge that it was difficult to describe in words. Eighteen rusty chains pierced his body, completely locking him in the center of the seabed.

Yu Zhun and his four companions walked all the way for an unknown amount of time before finally reaching the destination. The chain was just one of the eighteen.

At this moment, the figure sitting cross-legged had his eyes closed, and his face was extremely blurry and could not be seen clearly, but the five people knew very well that he was the one who had cast glances at the person who entered the sea before.

"The fragment is there!" Hermod lowered his voice to the lowest point, pointed at a certain location and spoke quickly.

Following his instructions, the other four people soon saw the missing piece of the island.

It was stuck at a connection point of another chain, and compared to the huge scale of the chain itself, it was as small as a speck of dust.

"How do I get it?" Yu Zhu lowered his voice and spoke nervously.

It is extremely difficult to move from one chain to another, and it is even possible to alarm the trapped existence in the process.

Yu Zhun pondered for a moment and looked at Udyr, "I remember you got a wish-power item called [Endless Thoughts]?"

Udyr nodded slightly.

This item called [Endless Thoughts] is actually a silk thread. As long as the willpower is sufficient, it can extend to an infinite length.

In addition, as a wish-power item, it also has the characteristic of being indestructible under normal circumstances.

After receiving Udyr's affirmative answer, Yu Zhun nodded and soon came up with an idea.

He took Endless Thoughts from Udyr and put on a ring with a silk thread attached to it.

The latter is the secret treasure [Secret Doll Thread] that played an important role in killing Ze Feng before, and can control inanimate objects through the air.

Under the control of the [Secret Marionette Thread], [Endless Thoughts] clung to the chain under their feet and quickly spread towards another chain.

Even Yu Zhun and others found it difficult to recognize such movement, let alone the trapped being of such a huge size.

Soon, [Endless Thoughts] were silently and firmly fixed to the fragments in the distance.

After successfully completing all of this, Commander Yu handed the other end to Udyr and said, "Go back to the island, and we'll fish that piece up from a distance!"
