Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Flower in the Mirror, Moon in the Water

The Fire Dragon shot straight up, striking what seemed to be an invisible barrier and sending ripples across its surface.

After passing smoothly through the barrier, the Fire Dragon pierced directly through a massive body.

As it turned out, while the tentacle was dragging Xu Qingsui, it had forced her to look up.

With a single glance, she discovered a whole different scene above her.

An upside-down Giant Octopus sat upon an equally inverted throne.

Most of its tentacles pointed upward, with only one hanging straight down.

Seeing this, Xu Qingsui instantly understood the perplexing problem.

’It wasn’t a contradiction after all. Everything I’ve been seeing is just an illusion, like the moon’s reflection in water.’

The real Deep Sea Dominator, the Giant Octopus, was above her head all along. What she had seen was merely a reflection.

That was why the fireballs had passed through the tentacles without causing any damage.

She just didn’t know why this reflection could have such a tangible effect on her.

But she was in no mood to explore that question. The priority was to deal with the Giant Octopus first.

She immediately mobilized her Fire Attribute, launching a Fire Dragon aimed at the spirit body of the Giant Octopus above her.

At first, she had been worried that the Fire Dragon wouldn’t be able to break through the barrier and harm the spirit body.

She never expected to succeed so easily.

As the Fire Dragon pierced the spirit body, it detonated inside, erupting in a shower of sparks.

The Giant Octopus writhed violently. The tentacle holding Xu Qingsui was affected by the convulsions, and it violently flung her away.

Her body slammed against the wall before she crashed to the ground.

For a moment, Xu Qingsui felt as if all her internal organs had been rearranged.

She pushed herself up slowly, leaning against the wall. Watching the Giant Octopus still writhing violently, a smirk touched her lips.

’That fall was worth it. That big guy is having a much worse time.’

However, she also recognized a problem: the weak spot on the Giant Octopus’s belly was difficult to find.

Logically, since the Fire Dragon had pierced its abdomen and exploded, the large area of destruction should have hit its weak spot.

Yet the Giant Octopus was only writhing in pain, showing no signs of dying.

Xu Qingsui frowned. ’How am I supposed to pinpoint its weakness?’

While Xu Qingsui was contemplating, the Giant Octopus regained its senses.

A large hole had been blasted into its belly, the flesh peeled back and an inky fluid flowed out endlessly.

She watched as all its tentacles suddenly pointed straight down. The next second, the enormous creature began to fall from above.

This time, Xu Qingsui found herself face-to-face with the gaping hole in the Giant Octopus’s belly.

The Giant Octopus lashed out with five tentacles simultaneously, aiming for her limbs and head.

Xu Qingsui’s heart leaped in alarm. ’Is it planning to tear me limb from limb?’

The mind is sharpest in moments of danger. With the tentacles just inches away, Xu Qingsui suddenly remembered the Ice Attribute she had recently acquired.

With a single thought, Xu Qingsui hurriedly activated her Ice Attribute and unleashed it.

Fearing it wouldn’t be effective enough, Xu Qingsui went all out, unleashing all the Ice Attribute energy within her in a single burst.

As the Ice Attribute radiated outward, the temperature around her plummeted to sub-zero.

A layer of frost rapidly formed on the tentacles, which were now inches from her face, freezing them solid in mid-air.

The frost rapidly crept up the tentacles, and in no time, the entire Giant Octopus was frozen solid.

For a moment, it was as if time itself had stood still.

Xu Qingsui stared at the Giant Octopus, and an image flashed through her mind: Lu Jingyu’s dagger, frozen and then shattering into countless pieces.

Her eyes suddenly lit up.

’If I don’t know where the weak spot is, why not just shatter its entire abdomen to pieces?’

She immediately began to attune herself to the Ice Attribute, trying to figure out how to make the frozen spirit body disintegrate.

Perhaps because she was a quick study, Xu Qingsui soon figured it out.

With a single command of her will, countless cracks appeared all over the Giant Octopus.

The next second, with a deafening CRACK, the Giant Octopus shattered into countless fragments.

At the same time, a black sphere of light flew out of its body and shot directly into Xu Qingsui.

After absorbing the Giant Octopus’s spirit body, Xu Qingsui quickly took control of its physical body.

Ever since discovering the convenience of controlling the whale last time, Xu Qingsui had become quite skilled at using this ability.

’After all, I still have to venture into the Deep Sea Abyss. With this Deep Sea Dominator to help, won’t it be much easier?’

So preoccupied with this thought, Xu Qingsui completely forgot about the fierce battle raging outside.

Suddenly, the Giant Octopus’s body began to shake violently, and only then did she remember Lu Jingyu and the others were still outside.

At that moment, Lu Jingyu had fought his way through the chaos and reached the Giant Octopus’s abdomen, raising Tan Lang.

He didn’t know the exact location of the weak spot either, so he prepared to simply tear its entire abdomen to shreds.

With this one strike, the Giant Octopus would almost certainly be done for.

At that critical moment, Xu Qingsui’s voice rang out.

”We’re almost out of time! The Giant Octopus is already wounded; we can finish it later. Let’s surface first!”

Lu Jingyu glanced at the time. Sure enough, only a few minutes remained.

Not knowing if all the team members had evacuated, Lu Jingyu didn’t dare to delay and immediately held back his attack.

Sure enough, quite a few team members had yet to retreat. Only with Lu Jingyu’s urging did they begin an orderly withdrawal.

When most of the team members had withdrawn, Lu Jingyu realized he couldn’t see Xu Qingsui anywhere.

He hesitated, about to go search for Xu Qingsui, but then he heard Chen Yunfei say, ”That was Guide Xu who just warned us. She must have already surfaced.”

With that, Chen Yunfei pulled Lu Jingyu to ascend. But Lu Jingyu kept glancing down, feeling that something was off.

Before long, everyone’s heads broke the surface of the water.

The instant his head broke the surface, Lu Jingyu started scanning for any sign of Xu Qingsui.

But after scanning the area, he couldn’t find the face he was so desperate to see.

”Guide Xu! Has anyone seen Guide Xu?” Lu Jingyu asked frantically, grabbing a nearby team member.

As he heard one negative response after another, a chill crept into Lu Jingyu’s heart.

Just as he couldn’t take it anymore and was about to dive back down to find Xu Qingsui, a team member spoke up.

”I saw Guide Xu a moment ago. It looked like she had already surfaced, but she probably saw that time was running out and went back down to warn us.”

Finally getting some news about Xu Qingsui, Lu Jingyu let out a sigh of relief.

But the thought of Xu Qingsui having gone back down made his heart leap into his throat again.

A moment ago, the Giant Octopus had been on the verge of defeat.

If Xu Qingsui went back down now, she could very well be harmed by the cornered and desperate Giant Octopus.

Not daring to imagine what would happen to Xu Qingsui if she faced the Giant Octopus alone, Lu Jingyu immediately entrusted the team to Chen Yunfei and plunged back into the deep sea.
