Chapter 381: Nest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The situation fell into a stalemate.

Wicky wanted to rush into the Dead Sea several times, but he was pushed out by a sea of monsters.

On the battlefield, three Whale Harvesters and the eight Dragon harvesters swam endlessly. Every attack could absorb a lot of spiritual energy from Vicky, and they were also the main force of the monsters’ side in this battle.

When the fourth Whale Harvester emerged from the Dead Sea, Wicky finally could not bear it.

“Too many.”

There were indeed too many of them, dense and fearless of death. Even the strongest Whale Harvester among them was only a slight difference from the weakest Spirit Realm expert, but the sheer quantity made up for the quality.

In the next second, Vicky’s figure retreated explosively, breaking through the interception of the Dragon Harvester. The spiritual light on his body burst forth. In an instant, he killed his way through an upward passageway.

His figure flew like lightning to the entrance of the Ten Thousand Devil Abyss. Only then did Vicky lower his head and look down, his eyes revealing a chill.

“Alright, Lu Ming, you can run fast.”

However, he had already decided not to chase into the Dead Sea.

“But you can run for a while, you can’t run for a lifetime.”

“I don’t believe that you can stay in the Dead Sea forever and not come out!?”

Transcendents could not stay in that damned Dead Sea forever.

No matter how special Lu Ming was, he could not permanently reside in the Dead Sea.

As long as he waited, he would finally get Lu Ming.

Vicky was convinced of this.

The sounds of battle above the Dead Sea gradually subsided, but unfortunately, Lu Ming and the others could not hear it.

They had already dived very deeply, encountering fewer and fewer monsters along the way.

It was not until the monsters no longer surged out from below that everyone realized the opportunity brought by Vicky had ended.

“Too bad, why didn’t that guy hold on longer…”

The Desolate Demon Lord muttered, and everyone in the tower was silent.

Looking around, the surroundings were dark and chaotic, with no targets in sight and no idea where to go.

“Should we go back?”

The Desolate Demon Lord suggested, but Lu Ming vetoed outrightly, “Go back for what? To die?”

“Keep going downwards.”

“But if we go deeper, we might not even be able to find the way back.” The Desolate Demon Lord argued with Lu Ming, and he had a point.

At this moment, everyone had ventured too deep into the Dead Sea. If they went further down, they might very well get lost in the Dead Sea until their energy was exhausted and be completely devoured by the Dead Sea.

Before Lu Ming could speak again, a strange sound suddenly came from behind.

The Desolate Demon Lord turned sharply to look behind.

A heavily wounded Whale Harvester was slowly swimming over like a moving continent.

The enormous shadow cast by the whale form fell over the Desolate Demon Lord, making him keep silent, fearing that the Whale Harvester might notice his presence.

Lu Ming’s voice suddenly sounded from inside the Boshi Tower.

“Follow it.”

The Desolate Demon Lord was stunned for a moment before quickly returning to his senses.

Admittedly, Lu Ming had come up with a good idea.

This Whale Harvester had clearly just retreated from the battlefield.

At this moment, it was swimming into the depths of the Dead Sea. There was a high chance that it was similar to the triumphant return of a soldier from a war. Its target was most likely what Lu Ming and the others were looking for.

But, that might not be the case…

In any case, faced with the choice between leaving the Dead Sea and continuing to explore, Land Ming chose the latter. Moreover, the Desolate Demon Lord was also indecisive between these two choices.

For now, he would follow Lu Ming’s arrangement.

As the Whale Harvester swam to his side, the Desolate Demon Master carefully clung to its body.

The whale’s body was covered with scales of various sizes, providing a stable grip for the Desolate Demon Lord.

The Whale Harvester seemed unaware of the small creature on its back, and thus, carrying Lu Ming and his group, it swam towards the depths of the Dead Sea.

Cold, lonely, and an unchanging landscape.

In this environment, the Desolate Demon Lord seemed to have lost the concept of time.

Inside the Boshi Tower, Lu Ming stopped cultivating.

Both cultivation and building divinities required the consumption of source power. In the harsh environment outside the Dead Sea, with no idea when they would see daylight again, Lu Ming could not afford to use the life-saving source power and spiritual energy stored in the tower to enhance his cultivation.

As he calculated the time, he discreetly observed the Whale Harvester close at hand, and occasionally having the Desolate Demon Lord collect some scales, dead skin, or blood flowing from its wounds for future research..

He was intrigued by this group of monsters called Harvesters and wanted to study them. Collecting samples now was an early preparation.

The Whale Harvester swam fast.

If the Desolate Demon Lord’s forward speed were compared to one, then the swimming speed of the Whale Harvester would be equivalent to 10,000 or even more.

This was even more absurd than the speed difference between walking and moving cars.

The streamlined body of the Whale Harvester through the liquefied black mist, with monsters occasionally appearing nearby, but quickly left behind by the Whale Harvester.

“How long has it been?”

The Desolate Demon Lord asked, and Lu Ming replied, “It’s been half an hour.”

“All…” Desolate sighed and said helplessly, “Then we have to persist to the end.”

They had long lost the direction to return. If they did not continue following the Whale Harvester into the depths, they would not find their way back.

Lu Ming refrained from expressing any opinion on this matter, and just simply scanned the outside world.

He vaguely sensed that the Whale Harvester’s speed was gradually slowing down, as if it was about to reach its destination.

However, the terrifying weakening of perception caused by the liquefied black mist made it impossible for Lu Ming to see what was in the distance.

About ten minutes later.

The faint light fell into Lu Ming’s eyes.

He slowly widened his eyes, looking towards the outside world.

He could see in the distance, a spherical glowing object appearing within his perception range.

Initially, the spherical object was only the size of a light bulb, emitting a cyan glow.

But, as the Whale Harvester approached this thing, the spherical object grew larger and larger.

From a light bulb, it became the size of a house, then the size of an aircraft carrier, and finally an endless expanse!

It was as if a sea planet had appeared before Lu Ming’s eyes, constantly emitting a cyan glow, like the sun in the Dead Sea.

As the Whale Harvester approached the object, more details fell into the eyes of Lu Ming and his group.

It was not a perfectly round sphere; its overall shape was elliptical. The surface was uneven, covered with tentacles emitting a faint blue glow.

The tentacles trembled slightly and waved, indicating to Lu Ming that this thing might be a living organism.

“Wuwuwu—”

The Whale Harvester’s body emitted a cry of homecoming.

As the Whale Harvester approached the surface of the sphere, a crack automatically opened on the surface of the sphere.

A flesh-colored passageway inside appeared in front of everyone.

Without needing to look further, Lu Ming had already guessed the “identity” of this spherical object.

“The nest.”

“This is the nest of the anomalies..”
