Timeline, half a month ago.

Xuanwu, Zhuque and Li Changgong were directly wrapped up by large balls of yellow sponge. Although Xuanwu struggled desperately, he seemed to have lost all his strength in the sponge and had no space to exert any force at all.

"Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! We are in big trouble now!"

Xuanwu's spirit covered his head and yelled in fear.

"Why is it like this? We just got to the bottom of the sea, and we encountered this kind of monster?"

The gray-blue giant octopus is already very difficult to deal with, but I didn’t expect that there is an even stronger one!

Now, he, a Black Chariot-class deep-sea monster-type alien, has become a fish on the chopping board.

Inside the Xuanwu, everyone's face was terrifyingly pale.

This was not the first time they had followed Xuanwu into the deep sea to carry out a mission, so they knew the rules of the seabed very well.

This is a world where the strong prey on the weak. The weak will be devoured by the strong and become energy for their evolution.

The reason why Xuanwu has grown to this level is because it has devoured enough deep-sea beasts.

So today, is it their turn to be devoured?

No one can remain calm at the thought of being eaten.

Xuanwu covered his head and looked at Li Changgong suddenly. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's all your fault. You were too impatient! How could such a treasure be left unprotected? If you were more careful, we would have taken a long-term view and obtained it slowly. We would definitely not have fallen into this situation!"

At this moment, Li Changgong felt a little regretful.

But facing such a scene at that time, how could he suppress his inner excitement?

In his pocket at this moment, there was a golden fruit, and the surging energy was very close to the spirit of the sacrifice.

If he could eat it and completely absorb the energy inside, his strength would definitely be greatly enhanced!

"It's too late to say this now. We must find a way to save ourselves."

Li Changgong looked at Xuanwu, "Xuanwu, is there any way to escape?"

At the bottom of the sea, we can only rely on basalt.

Who would have thought that Xuanwu sneered after hearing this.

"Escape? Where do you think we are? We are nearly 20,000 meters below the seabed!"

"Imagine that you have left the surface of the planet and are in space. What kind of support can the ground forces give you?"

"Oh no, if we were in space, human weapons would still be able to strike remotely. But this is the deep sea! It's very difficult for us to communicate with the ground, and they can't support us at all!"

If even Xuanwu said so, Li Changgong was really a little desperate.

"Then... the god of love's death..."

He mentioned this thing, which seemed to be humanity's most powerful and last resort.

"it's useless."

Xuanwu closed his eyes.

"The launch port has been completely blocked, unless we detonate directly inside and fight them to the death. But I don't think this is a good idea."

He took a deep breath, slowly opened his eyes, and tried to calm himself down.

"Why don't we see what they are going to do?"

Xuanwu's body was shaking, and he could feel himself being dragged away.

The other party did not intend to kill them all directly.

That yellow sponge was too powerful and easily subdued them. It was at least bishop-level powerful.

If you really want to kill Xuanwu and others, it won’t take too much effort.

Then it must have some other purpose.

Everyone on the boat was at a loss of what to do, but Li Changgong's ability allowed him to temporarily cut a hole in the sponge and escape using the Feiyun Step.

But in the deep sea, his abilities were greatly limited, and if he tried to run, he would probably only die faster.

So he finally chose to find a chair to sit down, put his hands on the hilt of the knife, and wait for the unknown.

……

I don’t know how much time has passed, but suddenly Xuanwu felt his body stop.

The sponges on his body were peeled off layer by layer, and everyone slowly regained their sight.

There was an extremely noisy sound in my ears, and when I looked at the surrounding scene, everyone looked stunned.

I originally thought that the bottom of the sea 20,000 meters below the surface should be a dark and gloomy abyss.

But wherever they looked, the light was as bright as daytime on land.

Surrounding it is a three-dimensional space composed of objects similar to underwater coral reefs, like some large and small mountains.

In the middle of the coral reef, there are huge white clam shells, some of which are as big as wheels. The clam shells open, revealing the bright and lustrous pearls inside, illuminating an area like street lamps.

There are some very special fish swimming around. They are colorful and look very strange. Their bodies are as flat as a piece of paper, but they are extremely beautiful.

At this time, Xuanwu seemed to have landed on a huge underwater platform.

There were people around.

A mermaid with a human-like upper body and a fish-like tail.

"Mermaid!"

The sailors on the ship spoke in surprise, their eyes wide open, full of excitement and shock.

They actually saw with their own eyes this magical creature that only exists in legends!

That's right, those creatures have human bodies and fish tails, just like the legendary mermaids, except that they have some delicate colorful scales on their bodies, even on the corners of their eyes and faces, and their ears are not like human ears, but a special tissue similar to fish fins.

A large group of mermaids completely surrounded Xuanwu. Many tall mermaids wearing armor, who looked like soldiers, held tridents in their hands to separate the crowd.

More and more mermaids gathered around, waiting to see this strange thing.

Because they were all in the deep sea, they had only heard of the creatures above the water in legends.

So at this moment, the way they looked at everyone on the Xuanwu was no different from how humans looked at them.

Li Changgong held the long sword tightly with both hands and observed everything outside through the porthole.

He was shocked to discover that the civilization here was not advanced, and the people's way of working seemed to still remain in ancient times, using giant sea fish as a means of transportation and labor.

However, the equipment on the mermaid warrior looks very sophisticated.

After the Xuanwu was dragged to the underwater world, the three huge sea beasts regained their original appearance.

Wang Ziji did not lift all the blockades on Xuanwu, he just let his head show, and his body was still wrapped like a big dumpling.

Xuanwu's spirit suddenly said to Li Changgong happily: "Great, we may still be saved!"
