Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 566: Chapter 2: Sea Monsters—What an Intense Brawl!

Mu Qingge’s scolding not only intimidated Bai Xi and Yin Chen, but also made the Dragon Tooth Guards collect their emotions, their eyes becoming serious.

In their view, Mu Qingge’s words were not just directed at the two spirit beasts capable of transforming, but also at them. Their young lord has always wanted a united and indestructible momentum.

”Disperse,” Mu Qingge said simply.

The Dragon Tooth Guards dispersed into their respective directions.

”Mo Yang, please stay,” Mu Qingge suddenly called out, halting Mo Yang who was about to leave.

Mu Qingge’s gaze swept over Yin Chen and Bai Xi, saying to them, ”You two can leave as well.”

Bai Xi and Yin Chen exchanged a glance and walked off in different directions.

Yuanyuan had no desire to come out, as the deck outside might be large, and the ship vast, but it was nothing compared to Mengmeng Space. In the space, Yuanyuan had a playmate, and the two little ones could run freely.

Outside, they could only gaze at the dark green ocean.

Mo Yang approached Mu Qingge, who then turned and walked towards the ship’s rail.

Mo Yang immediately followed, accompanying Mu Qingge to the side of the deck.

Mu Qingge leaned against the rail, gazing out at the distant ocean, and said to Mo Yang, ”On that day, in the Trial Space, when I was in a difficult situation, did you know the Dragon Tooth Guards formed their momentum?”

Recalling the peril of that day, a chill came to Mo Yang’s serene eyes.

Though the enemies were avenged, he still harbored regrets for not being beside Mu Qingge and killing those people himself.

”I heard some things,” Mo Yang replied reluctantly.

”What did you hear?” Mu Qingge asked.

Mo Yang was silent for a moment before answering, ”What I heard wasn’t detailed. I only know that the three hundred Dragon Tooth Guards present formed a momentum of protection for the young lord with their determination. It played a role in mutual defense against the enemy.”

Mu Qingge nodded lightly, ”Indeed. When their momentum formed, the attacks on the Dragon Tooth Guards were divided into three hundred portions, shared among the three hundred people, greatly reducing the risk and danger.”

Mu Qingge’s words made Mo Yang’s eyes widen.

He seemed to vaguely guess what Mu Qingge wanted to tell him.

”Do you know what I want to say to you?” Mu Qingge turned to look at him.

Mo Yang raised his gaze towards Mu Qingge, his lips pressed tightly, not saying a word.

”I hope you can utilize it well. If managed properly, this will be your Dragon Tooth Guards’ greatest hidden advantage,” Mu Qingge said clearly.

Mo Yang’s gaze flashed, looking at Mu Qingge with determination.

Mu Qingge turned to face the Bitter Sea, speaking calmly, ”Simply dividing the enemy’s attack power isn’t enough. I hope to develop this into a Combined Martial Technique. Five hundred Purple Realm could combine into one strike and kill a Spiritual Movement Stage expert. This is the task I give you.”

After speaking, Mu Qingge turned her gaze to Mo Yang, asking in a deep voice, ”Confident?”

The combined strike of five hundred Purple Realm, capable of killing a Spiritual Movement Stage expert with one move!

This statement made Mo Yang’s heart beat like a drum.

He could almost imagine that if Mu Qingge’s expectation came true, the strength of the Dragon Tooth Guards would multiply several times!

”This subordinate will certainly live up to the young lord’s expectations!” Mo Yang responded forcefully.

Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, ”This matter cannot be accomplished by you alone. How to unify the minds of five hundred people and achieve coherence is your first challenge to overcome.”

After a pause, Mu Qingge frowned and said, ”These days, I’ve deduced some strategies in my mind. I’ll tell you, as a reference.”

”Understood!” Mo Yang focused intently.

Mu Qingge organized her thoughts, saying to Mo Yang, ”To unify the Dragon Tooth Guards’ intentions, further harmony must be cultivated. The combined strike of five hundred people has never been seen before, so we must explore and create ourselves.”

Create our own combined combat skills!

Mo Yang’s eyes widened abruptly.

He looked at Mu Qingge in shock, seemingly unable to believe.

Creating combat skills is challenging enough, let alone Combined Combat Skills?

Yet, Mu Qingge continued to speak to herself, ”Don’t rush this. What you need to do now is cultivate the Dragon Tooth Guards’ harmony, starting with training in combined combat tactics in groups of five. Gradually explore through training. Secondly, encourage everyone to accumulate spiritual power quickly, without laziness. The stones brought from the Trial Space contain spiritual power, absorbing them during cultivation can yield twice the results with half the effort. Additionally, I will place the ancient ruins stones in the lower cabin for you to cultivate daily. All Dragon Tooth Guards who have learned a cultivation technique must demonstrate it before me. Finally, the Star Beginning Step must be persistently practiced without slacking.”

Mu Qingge’s words made Mo Yang’s thoughts clear.

However, there was one thing he didn’t quite understand. ”Young lord, why should it be demonstrated?”

Mu Qingge slightly curved her lips, saying to him, ”If we’re to create Combined Martial Technique, each combat technique’s strengths must be absorbed for inspiration.”

Mo Yang nodded.

Finally, Mu Qingge said, ”We don’t know when we will emerge from the Bitter Sea. Though these days are monotonous, they should not be wasted. This is our opportunity to increase everyone’s strength, so calm down and cultivate.”

”Understood, young lord!” Mo Yang said aloud.

...

The Bitter Sea is boundless; looking back, there’s no shore.

Having sailed out from the near seas of the Ancient Witch Country, Mu Qingge and her party have been drifting in the Bitter Sea for a month, seeing the seemingly unchanging seawater.

The only indication that time hasn’t stopped is the icebergs floating on the sea surface.

Voyage is too boring.

After the initial novelty, only the anticipation of land remains.

Yet, on this uncrewed giant ship, they are unusually busy.

Bai Xi and Yin Chen cultivate differently than humans and have taken on the task of observing, keeping an eye on the ocean’s activities. Alternating between them also prevents clashes.

Their efforts have liberated the Dragon Tooth Guards completely.

By day, they cultivate with the stones in the lower cabin and when tired, practice the Star Beginning Step. Upon mastering a cultivation technique, they present it to Mu Qingge, while at night, they hold spirit stones, not wasting even a moment in cultivation.

Mo Yang, following Mu Qingge’s direction, divided the five hundred Dragon Tooth Guards into one hundred teams, starting training in mutual harmony and joint attacks.

And Mu Qingge herself?

She devoted a lot of time to cultivation, then spent the remaining time reading and deducing, and relieved fatigue through alchemy.

While the Dragon Tooth Guards worked hard, she worked even harder.

Not only did she read all the cultivation techniques concealed within the stone blocks, she also studied the martial techniques in her own space. During this time, she absorbed everything like a sponge, constantly absorbing and absorbing!

Three more months passed...

Mu Qingge and her party have been in the Bitter Sea for over four months.

In these four months, everyone has been growing stronger, every day.

Finished with her cultivation, Mu Qingge slowly opened her eyes.

In recent days, she has felt the spiritual power within her being compressed to the limit, indicating a breakthrough in cultivation.

She calmed her mind and focused on the pile of drawings before her.

Those drawings are the results of her efforts during the past three months.

The circles represent positions, while various lines represent spiritual power’s trajectory.

These are her created Combined Martial Techniques, drawing from various martial techniques absorbed over this period.

Based on the Five Elements Formation of previous generations and complemented by Forbidden Technique theories.

Yet, it is only theoretical; success still depends on verification by the Dragon Tooth Guards.

After mentally simulating the moves on the drawings, Mu Qingge called Mo Yang to her room.

”Young lord,” Mo Yang said.

Mu Qingge asked, ”How has training been these days?”

”Progress is smooth. All training proceeds according to the young lord’s plan, and monthly assessments mostly meet the standard. Initial results in mutual team training have been observed,” Mo Yang reported.

Mu Qingge nodded in satisfaction.

She handed the drawings to Mo Yang.

Mo Yang lowered his gaze and examined them closely. Intelligent and adaptable, having carefully evaluated the drawings, he looked up at Mu Qingge in shock, ”Young lord, if these succeed, I promise the Dragon Tooth Guards’ combat strength will increase three to four times!”

Mu Qingge remained calm, saying, ”This is only a preliminary attempt, not yet a fully mature martial technique. Take them and teach them the position first. However...”

Mu Qingge paused for a moment, somewhat hesitantly, and said, ”If you want to launch a combined attack, you must allow others’ spiritual power to enter your own body, weaken yourself to a point, and communicate with each other. If you can’t do it, it can easily cause backlash. This is a risk, and also a test, so you need to explain it clearly to them, and trust your comrades!”

Mo Yang nodded seriously, ”I understand!”

”Go ahead, if there are any issues, come to me again.” Mu Qingge dismissed Mo Yang.

Afterward, she entered the space again and started alchemy.

Alchemy, alchemy! To advance soon, to refine divine level elixirs, and ultimately to create holy level elixirs!

For this goal, Mu Qingge has temporarily put aside artifact refining technique.

The elixirs refined by Mu Qingge are distributed to the Dragon Tooth Guards monthly, and the rest are stored in her space for emergencies.

Days kept passing by.

On this day, the deck of the giant ship was especially lively.

Mu Qingge sat on the second-floor deck, overlooking the Dragon Tooth Guards on the first-floor deck.

Five hundred Dragon Tooth Guards were divided into one hundred squads, each practicing the combined combat skills from Mu Qingge’s blueprint, not making the deck crowded.

Mo Yang stood silently behind Mu Qingge, watching.

During this time, You He and Hua Yue were also very diligent, continuously cultivating. They were about to break through in these few days, so they did not come to serve Mu Qingge.

On the lookout tower on the mast, Bai Xi sat on the edge of the lookout tower, her feet crossed. She leaned against the mast, arms folded across her chest.

Today, it was her turn to be in charge of lookout.

However, at this moment, her gaze was not on the vast sea but was focused on the deck below.

The interest of the Dragon Tooth Guards sparked her intense curiosity.

”During cultivation, did you feel anything obstructive?” Mu Qingge asked.

Mo Yang answered honestly, ”Initially, everyone felt a bit uncomfortable. Occasionally, there were instances of spiritual energy backlash, but it became better afterward. In some places connection was not smooth enough, but everyone figured it out and modified it themselves.”

Mo Yang’s answer made Mu Qingge feel gratified.

Her Dragon Tooth Guards were not a group of brainless brutes!

Suddenly, the Dragon Tooth Guards on the deck shouted in unison, and a hundred dazzling red beams shot out from them, falling towards the sea.

Boom boom boom boom boom—!

The sea roared loudly.

Like a tsunami, those red beams swept over a thousand feet of Bitter Sea’s surface, stirring water up to a hundred meters high. The water fell, resembling a rain of ink green.

Mu Qingge stood up abruptly from her chair, gazing towards the tumultuous sea stirred by the Dragon Tooth Guards.

Mo Yang’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Bai Xi on the lookout tower also put her feet down in shock, standing within the lookout tower, looking at that sea area, and then at the stupefied Dragon Tooth Guards on the deck.

”Success!” Mu Qingge’s voice carried a feeling of relief.

She was incredibly excited inside, yet didn’t show it.

Now, only five people combined can be so overwhelming. If all five hundred people strike at once... Mu Qingge took a deep breath; her clear eyes gleamed with captivating brilliance.

At this moment, Bai Xi cast a scrutinizing look at Mu Qingge.

She seemed to be pondering how Mu Qingge accomplished all this!

She had never heard of combined techniques involving many people.

The sea took a long time to return to calm.

The five hundred Dragon Tooth Guards were still in a daze.

Until Mu Qingge told them, ’We succeeded!’ They awoke as if from a deep sleep, cheering excitedly.

Five hundred iron-blooded men now excited like children.

They hugged each other, shouting out, venting their excitement and thrills.

This kind of strong infectiousness spread, affecting Mu Qingge and Mo Yang standing on the second-floor deck, and even Bai Xi standing on the lookout tower.

After their excitement subsided, Mu Qingge calmly said, ”This is just initial success, proving that our theory is achievable in reality. True success is still far away. So, whether you or me, we cannot be complacent, we still need to continue working hard, exert more sweat, endure more hardships!”

”Yes——!”

A deafening sound came from the deck.

The overwhelming momentum made Bai Xi’s face show a trace of daze.

Suddenly, at this moment, she seemed to have a feeling of wanting to integrate into this group.

Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, the only existence throughout history.

She was unique, one and only in the world. Therefore, she was proud, she was cold, she disdained company, nor did she want to fit in any era.

Mu Qingge was the only exception.

Because she was reborn through Mu Qingge’s blood.

They were directly linked by blood, so she felt close to Mu Qingge, liked the scent on her. That’s the smell of blood, the scent that hatched her.

She thought Mu Qingge, this sole exception, was enough. Yet, in such interactions, she seemed to begin understanding the meanings of ’comrade’ and ’companion’ that Mu Qingge always talked about.

At this moment, Bai Xi fully realized that if Mu Qingge had to choose between her and those people down below. Even though her ability is stronger, Mu Qingge would unhesitatingly choose the Dragon Tooth Guards.

This choice is not because Mu Qingge finds her unimportant, but because there is already a deep bond between her and the Dragon Tooth Guards.

Mu Qingge’s experiences in the Trial Space, though she didn’t witness them, she had heard many upon coming out. The loyalty these five hundred people showed to Mu Qingge was worthy of her cherishing.

A training shocked everyone.

And quietly was changing each person.

Such change was something Mu Qingge couldn’t predict. But, this was a good phenomenon.

Into the fifth month of Bitter Sea, the monotonous scenery made everyone somewhat forget what the land looked like. As far as the eye could see, there was still no coastline appearing, only the floating ice was fewer, and there were more islets.

Those islands were far from Mu Qingge’s ship, visible only as blurred silhouettes.

On this day, it was Yin Chen’s turn at the lookout tower.

In his eyes was a calm sea area.

Seemingly, everything was no different from usual.

Suddenly, on the calm sea surface, a towering water column burst forth.

The violent vibration made the giant ship stop automatically, not continuing to approach the dangerous sea area.

Yin Chen’s blood-red eyes narrowed slightly, immediately ringing the bell on the mast. This was for alarm, having never sounded in the five months into Bitter Sea.

As the bell rang, Mu Qingge who was cultivating opened her eyes.

Her clear eyes seemed to emit gaze like substantive light.

A white silhouette flew out from the cabin, landing directly on the lookout tower on the mast. As the white light scattered, Bai Xi’s figure emerged.

”What happened?” Bai Xi asked Yin Chen.

Yin Chen looked at her, frowned but still answered truthfully, ”It seems something’s wrong ahead.” Just as he spoke, another water column burst forth from the frontier sea area, surging from the sea.

At this moment, although they were still far from that sea area, the water columns made them feel a hint of danger.

Bai Xi’s eyes turned purple-gold, she told Yin Chen, ”I’ll go take a look.” Then she transformed into a white light, darting towards the sea area ahead.

Bai Xi’s initiative left Yin Chen feeling uneasy.

In his impression, Bai Xi wouldn’t take initiative unless Mu Qingge asked, only then she would act.

Unexpectedly so proactive today, did this greedy snake turn sensible?

As Yin Chen was surprised, Mu Qingge also went up to the lookout tower, and gradually the Dragon Tooth Guards emerged from the deck.

”What happened?” Mu Qingge stood on the lookout tower, questioning Yin Chen.

Before Yin Chen could speak, the sea area continuously burst with several water columns, some things were blasted from the seabed, thrown to the sky, then heavily fell back, plunging into the sea.

The exploding sounds put the Dragon Tooth Guards on alert, gathering around the edge of the deck, observing the situation afar.

The obvious sounds of battle made Mu Qingge frown slightly.

At this moment, a white light returned and landed in the watchtower, transforming into human form.

Seeing Bai Xi, Mu Qingge, like Yin Chen earlier, was taken aback. It seemed unexpected that Bai Xi would take the initiative to investigate.

”It’s the sea demons fighting,” Bai Xi said, startling both Mu Qingge and Yin Chen.

”Sea demons?!” Mu Qingge repeated uncertainly.

It’s said that sea demons live in the Bitter Sea, but no one has ever seen them. Over time, people gradually believed it was all fabrication, or perhaps the sea demons had already become extinct.

Unexpectedly, in the fifth month after entering the Bitter Sea, they unexpectedly encountered this mysterious race.

Moreover, unfortunately, they stumbled upon them during an internal conflict!

Bai Xi used ’fighting a war’ instead of ’brawling’, which prompted Mu Qingge to ask a question: ”How many are there?”

Bai Xi frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then said, ”Many.”

Many!

So many that Bai Xi couldn’t even use a vague quantity word to describe it? What a concept!

A heavy look appeared in Mu Qingge’s eyes.

Bai Xi added, ”It seems that two groups are fighting over something, which caused the battle. They are fighting fiercely, and it probably won’t end anytime soon.”

”Are they fighting underwater?” Mu Qingge asked in surprise.

After all, there were no signs of fighting on the sea surface.

Bai Xi nodded, ”Sea demons can survive both on the shore and in the sea. Generally, the limited islands on the sea surface are used for habitation, while the seabed becomes their battlefield.”

”Do sea demons also have to fight to the death?” Yin Chen hesitated to ask.

Bai Xi sneered, ”Why not? In any group, there are conflicts. This is a common flaw of social species; where there is discord, there will be disputes.”

Mu Qingge paused in silence, licked her lips, and said, ”Since it’s a personal vendetta, let’s not get involved. We’ll stay here and closely monitor the situation. Once they finish fighting, we’ll move on.”

She wasn’t arrogant enough to sail the ship boldly across the warring parties without regard for the conflict.

One misstep, and she would become a target for both sides to open fire!

Bai Xi and Yin Chen nodded.

Mu Qingge jumped down from the watchtower, landing on the deck.

Mo Yang and the others immediately surrounded her.

”Lord.”

”Lord.”

You He and Hua Yue also gathered around, their eyes filled with worry.

”Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Mu Qingge smiled at them, comforting them.

There was always a calming magic in Mu Qingge’s words. You He and Hua Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and the worry in their eyes disappeared.

”Is the lord hungry? Shall we prepare some food?” You He asked with a smile.

Mu Qingge nodded, ”Okay.”

After Mu Qingge agreed, You He pulled Hua Yue away from the deck.

After they left, Mu Qingge said to Mo Yang, ”Let everyone continue cultivating and remain vigilant.”

”Yes, lord.” Mo Yang acted according to Mu Qingge’s instructions.

Mu Qingge glanced at the distant underwater battlefield, then turned and returned to the ship’s cabin.

Back in the cabin, Mu Qingge looked through the porthole at the outside emerald-green sea, lost in thought. The Bitter Sea seemed calm but hid many dangers.

Not to mention the freezing cold temperatures of the sea, countless hopeful explorers attempting to reach the Middle Ancient Realm found themselves lost in this vast green ocean.

Besides, there were the legendary sea demons...

”I wonder how many humans have lost their lives at the hands of sea demons,” Mu Qingge murmured.

Danger is always the kind that’s invisible, coming unexpectedly, making it more terrifying and silently claiming lives!

Bai Xi pushed the door open and entered, seeing Mu Qingge zoning out at the window. She walked over, sat down beside her, and asked, ”Qingge, what are you thinking about?”

Mu Qingge withdrew her gaze and looked at her, ”I was wondering about the strength of these sea demons.” Since there really were sea demons in the Bitter Sea, it’s possible they’d encounter them. If that happened, a friendly meeting is unlikely.

Bai Xi was taken aback by Mu Qingge’s question.

She frowned and said, ”My memory hasn’t fully recovered yet, but from my impression, I also haven’t had much contact with sea demons. Regarding their strength...” She slowly shook her head, seeming a bit disappointed that she couldn’t help.

Mu Qingge didn’t seem to mind much; she pondered and asked, ”You just went to have a look, do you think if our people faced those sea demons, what are our chances of winning?”

Bai Xi thought carefully and then shook her head at Mu Qingge, ”I only looked briefly and didn’t observe in detail. But, sea demons have unique innate talents, and whether in the sea or on land, they move as if on flat ground. This advantage alone surpasses the Dragon Teeth.”

Mu Qingge frowned and nodded.

She knew Bai Xi spoke the truth; in the battle at sea, the Dragon Teeth had no advantage whatsoever.

”Qingge, since you’re curious, why don’t we go take a look?” Bai Xi suggested.

”Go take a look?” Mu Qingge was taken aback.

Bai Xi nodded, ”I’ll take you with me; we can hide quietly on the side. We won’t alert them and can get a clear understanding of the situation.”

Mu Qingge’s eyes narrowed, Bai Xi’s words echoed in her mind.

She was never a timid person, nor was she indecisive.

”Alright!” Mu Qingge’s eyes shone with a bright light, affirming Bai Xi’s suggestion.

But she frowned again, ”I can’t stay underwater for too long.” She could dive, but at most, she could only hold for half the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Such a short time was useless and easily exposed.

”I have a way.” Bai Xi smiled.

Since Bai Xi had a solution, Mu Qingge decided not to delay any longer.

She called Mo Yang over and, after explaining her plan to leave the ship, left the large ship with Bai Xi.

The two flew away from the large ship and arrived at the sea’s surface.

After exchanging a glance, Bai Xi grabbed Mu Qingge’s hand and pulled her into the sea.

Upon entering the sea, the imagined ocean water did not rush in.

Mu Qingge saw Bai Xi open her mouth and expel a transparent, giant bubble, enclosing the two of them, blocking the seawater yet also allowing them to breathe without discomfort.

This magical bubble left Mu Qingge slightly shocked.

She wanted to reach out and poke it but was afraid that with one poke, the bubble might burst.

”What is this?” Mu Qingge asked Bai Xi.

Bai Xi chuckled proudly, her childlike voice saying, ”Nine Techniques Sky-devouring Python, nine ultimate skills. You already know two: Immortality and Venom. This is the third: Water Repelling.”

Mu Qingge closed her gaping mouth, curiously asked, ”What about the remaining six?”

Bai Xi chose to maintain her mystery at this point. ”I’ll tell you later.”

Mu Qingge was a bit disappointed.

”I’ve just been reborn; my memories are not fully recovered yet, and those ultimate skills haven’t fully awakened either.” Bai Xi explained.

Mu Qingge expressed her understanding.

After all, Bai Xi indeed hadn’t been out of the egg for long.

The transparent bubble carried them forward slowly; Mu Qingge found herself effortlessly exploring the seabed for the first time, witnessing for the first time what the bottom of the Bitter Sea looked like.

Gradually, a look of amazement appeared in Mu Qingge’s clear eyes.

Unexpectedly, the seabed of the Bitter Sea had forests, grasslands, mountains, and lakes... If not for the being underwater, everything here was just like a replica of the land.

The only difference was probably that the animals here were all sorts of fish and shellfish.

”We’re almost there!” Bai Xi’s voice reminded.

Her voice pulled Mu Qingge back from her shock.

Suddenly, Bai Xi grabbed her wrist and led her into a crevice in the rocks. The transparent bubble also changed shape with the size of the rock crevice.

In the crevice, it was just enough to accommodate two people, not too cramped.

Through the crevice, they could see the undersea battle taking place.

”If there were only a few sea demons, we could just kill them and leave,” Bai Xi whispered in Mu Qingge’s ear. With a single sentence, she revealed her murderous nature.

However, Mu Qingge was not a kind person either and would not criticize Bai Xi for killing innocents.

She watched the melee in front and softly responded to Bai Xi, ”Too bad, there are at least several thousand sea demons here.”

Indeed, if there were only a small number of sea demons, they could directly kill them and leave without wasting time. However, with this many sea demons, if they wanted to kill them all...

Not to mention whether they had the capability, if they really did, she would probably be hunted down by the entire Bitter Sea and its sea demon clan, increasing the difficulty of passing through the Bitter Sea, possibly even losing her life here.

In every way, this is not a profitable deal!

Therefore, Mu Qingge would not provoke this large group of sea demons.

She quietly watched these sea demons fighting among themselves, adopting human habits, using weapons and spiritual power. Some maintained their animalistic nature, attacking with bites.

Most of them looked human, but retained some marine traits.

For instance, some sea demons had fish gills on their ears and shiny scales on their arms.

Some had grotesque facial features, like beasts, with sharp teeth.

Some had webbed hands and feet.

What they all had in common was pale green skin, gray eyes, and lips as red as blood.

In short, Mu Qingge could only use one word to describe the appearance of the sea demons.

That word is—ugly!

The battles of these sea demons caused the water to surge, water columns erupting to the surface from time to time.

The spiritual power they released affected the surrounding forests and rocks, destroying much of the beautiful scenery.

”How do you judge the spiritual power level of sea demons?” After watching for a while, Mu Qingge found the spiritual power of the sea demons seemed to have no color distinction.

But Bai Xi told her, ”It’s the same as humans.”

”The same as humans?” Mu Qingge was slightly surprised. She looked at the battlefield again, still unable to see any color in the spiritual power.

”The color of sea demon spiritual power doesn’t show in the sea; you can see it on land. In the sea, to know their cultivation level, you have to rely on spiritual sense. However, I must warn you, sea demons are very sensitive to spiritual sense, especially underwater. If your spiritual sense isn’t much stronger than theirs, don’t try it lightly, or you’ll get caught,” Bai Xi explained.

Spiritual sense strength?

Mu Qingge pursed her lips silently.

After the spiritual consciousness tower assessment at the Medicine Tower Branch and Main Courtyard, Mu Qingge had absolute confidence in her spiritual sense strength.

She pursed her lips, slowly releasing her spiritual sense towards the battlefield.

Once her spiritual sense was released, she understood the meaning of Bai Xi’s words. The water here seemed able to detect her spiritual sense, gently rippling along as it spread.

Mu Qingge’s eyes narrowed slightly, becoming even more cautious.

As her spiritual sense quietly approached the edge of the battlefield, the cultivation levels of the sea demons feedbacked into her mind.

’Green Realm, Blue Realm, Purple Realm, Blue Realm...’

Among several thousand sea demons, most were in the Green Realm, but there were also hundreds in the Blue Realm!

Such strength!

Mu Qingge’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

Suddenly, she saw a high-rank Purple Realm sea demon commander among them, seemingly aware of something, looking around. She dared not probe further and quickly withdrew her spiritual sense.

The result of this probe slightly shocked her.

These sea demons were definitely not all in this sea area. But even this part alone had such power. Ignoring those below Purple Realm, there were still hundreds in Purple Realm.

Looking at the whole Bitter Sea, there must be many sea demons in the Spiritual Movement Stage as well!

Such power level is fortunate that sea demons stay far from the mainland, without thoughts of landing, or it would be a disaster for humans on land.

Of course, the humans Mu Qingge was referring to were in the Linchuan Realm, not the Middle Ancient Realm.

She currently had no particular feelings for the Middle Ancient Realm.

This suspicion made Mu Qingge seem to understand a bit more about the Bitter Sea’s difficulty.

If those experts leaving Linchuan encountered powerful sea demons while passing through the Bitter Sea, it would likely result in despair.

After all, in existing historical records and biographies, there was never any mention of sea demons having goodwill towards humans.

Only mentioned were how sea demons rejected and loathed humans.

”To cross the Bitter Sea is truly as difficult as going through eighty-one tribulations!” Mu Qingge softly sighed.

Unlike the journey for the Buddhist scriptures, there were no demons or evil spirits waiting to eat Tang Seng’s flesh here, only various real threats. But these threats, placed in the Bitter Sea, turned extraordinarily despairing.

Mu Qingge and Bai Xi hid in the crevice of the rocks watching the battle on the other side. The fighting grew more intense, with many sea demons having their bodies slashed, then carried away by the water.

These sea demons seemed determined to fight to the death, refusing to stop until the other side was annihilated.

At the center of the battlefield, two sea demon commanders battled fiercely, eyes filled with intense hatred, as if they were each other’s mortal enemies.

”You’re such a bastard! Talisa doesn’t even like you, yet you still pester! She will soon be my bride, give up!” shouted one Purple Realm leader during the battle.

Mu Qingge was taken aback. These sea demons could actually speak human language!

”Well, half of the ancestors of sea demons were human. It’s not surprising they would inherit human writing. Beasts have no text,” Bai Xi explained as if knowing the surprise in Mu Qingge’s heart.

At this time, the other Purple Realm commander, while countering, revealed a sinister and hideous smile, maliciously saying, ”If you’re dead, Talisa will cancel the wedding, and I’ll still have a chance.”

”Kill me? With just you?” the previous commander scornfully replied, striking even more viciously.

The two fought more and more fiercely, gradually leaving the crowd, engaging in battle suspended in the water. Each of their clashes caused the water to ripple, creating massive waves on the surface.

On the surface, Yin Chen watched the movements on the sea, constantly frowning at the giant waves and water columns shooting into the sky.

Underwater, the two Purple Realm sea demon experts fought without reservation, their intense spiritual power destroying vast forest areas, even affecting numerous nearby sea demons, who were torn apart by the strong spiritual power.

Their attacks showed no regard for comrades’ lives, reflecting the violent nature of the sea demon clan.

”Even if you kill me, Talisa won’t marry you and will choose someone else. Do you have the ability to kill everyone?”

”Whoever dares to marry her, I’ll kill! In the end, Talisa can only be mine!”

Mu Qingge felt a twitch at the corner of her mouth, secretly thinking, ”They’re going all out, fighting to the death, just for a female sea demon named Talisa?”

The rivalry over a lover among sea demons is indeed far more intense than among humans!

Moreover, seeing those sea demon soldiers die heroically, without fear of death, for their commander fighting over love...

Tsk, tsks, Mu Qingge expressed she could not understand their feelings!

”Female sea demons are rare, so every female sea demon is very popular in the sea demon community. This Talisa must be an exceptionally beautiful sea demon to cause such a fierce competition,” Bai Xi said.

Mu Qingge detected a hint of insight from Bai Xi’s words.

It seemed that, to the entire sea demon community, female sea demons were also a kind of wealth. They are irreplaceable assets for progeny and maintaining bloodline continuity.

With this thought, Mu Qingge somewhat understood those sea demon soldiers who fought to the death.

They were competing not just for a woman but for a rare resource, an irreplaceable wealth!

A single woman might not cause a war of this scale. But with these labels attached to her, such a war is understandable.

Sure enough, shortly after Bai Xi spoke, they heard a voice from above, ”Talisa is so beautiful; she’s the most beautiful sea demon. Only the bravest sea demon is worthy of her!”

”It seems that today they will not leave without deciding a winner,” Mu Qingge frowned slightly.

How long would it take for them to kill each other?

”I’m more worried that if they chose this area to fight, does it mean their inhabited island is nearby? Besides, are there other sea demons on the island?” Bai Xi voiced her concern.

Mu Qingge’s eyes narrowed, her lips gradually pursed.

If sea demons lived here, it only meant they had entered the sea demon’s living waters. With such a large ship, it’s impossible to completely avoid their sight!
