"The reason why this sea area is called the Sea of Death, I think everyone knows why!"
Everyone nodded slightly, because this was the information provided in the competition announcement.
The Sea of Death is what monks from Hongmeng Continent call this sea area, because countless monks have died here from ancient times to the present. It does not mean that no one can pass through this sea area, but only very few. Those monks who passed through the sea area were not necessarily because of their strength. The reason may be more related to luck. The monks who died were basically because the sea soul beasts here were too powerful and fierce.
"If those six sea soul beasts appear at the same time, even the six of us will probably be wiped out." Shao Ruhai expressed his awe for this sea area on behalf of the six rescuers.
Of course, these words cannot be said to the Chinese audience, otherwise it will be suspected of shaking people's hearts.
"Then do you know why there are so many powerful sea soul beasts gathering in this sea area?" Xu Qian asked a key question.
Everyone knows that sea soul beasts generally have their own sphere of influence, and it is rare for multiple sea soul beasts to gather together. Therefore, no matter how powerful the sea soul beast is, the monks can deal with it calmly, at least they will not be helpless. However, the gathering of so many powerful sea soul beasts in the Sea of Death is unique.
This question is also an unsolved mystery before the exploration. The contestants have also speculated that perhaps the secret that the task requires them to explore is related to this.
"Is it because of the treasure at the bottom of the volcano?" Xue Muzi gave an answer.
The spiritual power escaping from the bottom of the volcano was felt by everyone. And in the end, they all saw Lan Kenan reappear holding something. Now everyone knew that behind Lan Kenan's actions, it was just Xu Qian's support.
"That's right! It's that treasure that attracts sea soul beasts, making them guard the submarine volcano all year round." Xu Qian explained.
Regarding this point, many people have already made speculations, and what Xu Qian said is in line with their expectations.
"They want to get the treasure, and at the same time they regard the approaching human monks as enemies fighting for the treasure." Xi Jiuhai said: "But I don't understand why they haven't been able to get the treasure for so many years?"
As for the question of why the monks in Hongmeng Continent did not form a team to grab the treasure, everyone has an answer. Obviously, the strength of the six sea soul beasts alone is equivalent to the top combat power of any of the eight major sects. If you want to fight the Sea Soul Beast for the treasure, you must first consider whether you can bear the consequences of the sect's top combat power being wiped out.
Xu Qian smiled and said: "Jiuhai, you don't need me to ask your questions, there should be someone here who can give the answer!"
Gui Yunzi, who rarely spoke, said at this time: "They are afraid of the heat and cannot get that treasure."
Some people have thought of this answer a long time ago, but some people only realized it later.
Xi Jiuhai said: "In the end, the two tentacle monsters stopped moving down because they had reached their limit and they could not go deeper. It was also because of this that Kong De saved his life." He looked at Kong De and thought of himself at that time Accompanying Kong De's situation, it was later confirmed that the tentacle monster did not move downward abnormally, and then he left.
"But there is a tentacle monster that has stayed down there with you for a long time. Doesn't this contradict the statement that they can't go deeper?" Xu Qingyan expressed confusion.
"That end is the strongest of the three brothers, their boss." Xu Qian explained.
Such a simple question is easy to figure out if it is put to people. But when it comes to three tentacle monsters that look exactly the same to humans, people will assume that they have the same strength because they look the same, thus ignoring that the three of them are actually strong and weak.
"However, Jiuhai, what you just said is not entirely correct." Xu Qian said this, which surprised everyone.
"On the one hand, these sea soul beasts kill passing monks, and on the other hand, they also hope that some monks can be used by them."
Everyone was puzzled by Xu Qian's words. He further explained: "Because they can't get the treasure themselves, they can only pretend to be others. It's just that people who can do this are extremely difficult to find."
Xiang Yan had already thought of this, "So the tentacle monsters have been forcing us to go down instead of letting us go up. As long as we are willing to go down, they will not attack us. Their purpose is to let us help them get the treasure." .”
At this point, the truth about the tentacle monster's weird behavior pattern at that time was finally revealed.
Everyone recalled the scene when the tentacle monster stretched out its tentacles to ask Xu Qian for the treasure, and finally chased the treasure desperately, and everything had a reasonable explanation.
"But, what exactly is that treasure?" Xue Muzi mentioned it gently, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
yes! What is this treasure that has been coveted by sea soul beasts for many years?
This question is hidden in everyone's heart, and everyone has long been itchy. Just mentioning treasures must be a sensitive issue. Chinese monks are subject to a lot of restrictions, and the situation is relatively good. In Hongmeng Continent and even in the era of immortal gods, murders and treasure grabbing often occurred, so no one brought this issue to the forefront from the beginning. Asking directly like Xue Muzi might offend Xu Qian. After all, this would put Xu Qian at the forefront of the limelight.
"That's the Fire Source Crystal!" Xiang Yan's voice sounded unexpectedly.
Xu Qian did not answer, and even Shao Ruhai and other well-informed seniors did not say anything, but it was Xiang Yan, a young man, who told the name of the treasure.
"Do you know this treasure?" It was Old Man Bugui who spoke, because the four of them had actually discussed this object, but none of them could tell its exact name.
Xiang Yan simply said: "The fire source crystal is the original object of fire attribute. It is a rare thing of heaven and earth. It is nurtured by heaven and earth, and there are more than one. But it is usually hidden in unknown places. For monks who practice fire attribute magic It is a treasure of great benefit.”
Xue Muzi was puzzled: "But how could the Fire Source Crystal appear on the bottom of the sea?"
Because Lan Kenan has the lowest cultivation level, he doesn't speak much, but his personality is relatively outgoing. At this time, he couldn't help but interject: "There is a volcano there. Even if it is the bottom of the sea, it is also an undersea volcano, and it has nothing to do with the fire attribute. Does it fit just right?"
Everyone thought there was nothing wrong with this statement, but Xue Muzi still said: "Even if this makes sense, the sea soul beasts are obviously not fire-attributed. This can be confirmed by the fact that they dare not go deep into the bottom of the volcano. Then they have to What's the use of that Fire Source Crystal?"
Xiang Yan waved his hands and explained: "Although the fire source crystal is not the only one, it is also one of the extremely rare material sources. Even monks who are not fire attributes must have some use, but those with fire attributes will benefit the most. Those who have the fire attribute will benefit the most. Sea spirit beasts have their uses."
Shao Ruhai looked at Xu Qian with confusion, "Did you use the Fire Source Crystal to deliver that shocking blow at the end?"
Everyone knew that the shocking blow from Shao Ruhai's finger was the one that killed six sea soul beasts. Everyone who witnessed the whole process still shudders when thinking about it.
At that moment, the sea water seemed to have turned into molten lava, and the temperature did not change. The six sea soul beasts were all reduced to nothing in the blink of an eye, including their skin, flesh and bones. This was due to the high temperature. Such high temperature can evaporate seawater and melt sea soul beasts in a very short period of time.
Although everyone here has heard more or less about Xu Qian's unusual methods of killing enemies, it is still hard to believe that such a move came from his own power. Moreover, I have never heard that Xu Qian has the ability to control flames, so it is obvious that all this comes from the power of the Fire Source Crystal.
"That's right! What do you think?" Xu Qian smiled and shrugged.
"Then...the Fire Source Crystal is finally..." Everyone understood what Shao Ruhai meant, but it was difficult for everyone to ask this question.
"I think it should be scrapped!"
"Abandoned?" Everyone said in unison.
Xu Qian nodded, "If I hadn't wrapped it up with a secret method, the Fire Source Crystal itself would have been an extremely dangerous object. Most monks would have been killed by the heat even if they got close to it, so I released its power all at once. Having solved those sea soul beasts, we have also permanently eliminated the future trouble of the Fire Source Crystal."
Everyone was silent, even Shao Ruhai and others couldn't say anything more.
