Caspian meditated all night with the spirit stones in his mouth, and favonovel.com restored his physical and mental state to the best. As favonovel.com inhaled and exhaled, the air surrounding favonovel.com moved like tides. Then, when the morning glow leaped out of the horizon, Caspian opened his eyes, faced the Lost Soul River, and stood up.
“The Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle, I’m coming for you.”
Taking a deep breath, Caspian rushed forward to the river and jumped high. Then, like a javelin, favonovel.com drew an arc in the air and dived into the water. There was a loud thud, but only a little water splashed, and the calmness quickly restored.
The Lost Soul River, one of the four most dangerous regions in the Valley of Death.
The river was about 200 meters wide, and it flowed through the entire Valley of Death. In the whole river, the fallen leaves would not float, and the water was as heavy as mercury. Once ordinary people fell into it, they would be squeezed and crushed to death by the water in the Lost Soul River, and even the weightless souls could not float. Hence, the Lost Soul River was given its name. If one accidentally fell into the Rotten Mud Swamp, they could still be rescued by a companion. However, if they fell into the Lost Soul River, no matter how many apprentices there were, it was impossible to float again. According to rumors, the bottom of the Lost Soul River was covered with bones, but no one saw it with their own eyes. Nonetheless, Caspian was not afraid and jumped directly into the river. That time, Caspian’s confidence came from the practice in the spirit mountain spring some time ago and his acquired Immortal Demon Physique.
The water flow in Lost Soul River was similar to the spirit mountain spring, and they were both extremely heavy and comparable to mercury. However, the difference between them was that the Lost Soul River did not contain spiritual Qi, making it unbeneficial to cultivation. Moreover, there was no upward force in the water but a downward pressure instead.
The most prominent feature of Caspian’s Immortal Demon Physique was that it could enhance his body’s resistance to any force through tempering. Therefore, through the practice in the spirit mountain spring, Caspian’s Immortal Demon Physique had a resistance far beyond ordinary people to that kind of water pressure.
Caspian had the confidence to enter the restricted zone in the eyes of other apprentices. Nevertheless, Caspian did not blindly jump in without any preparation. Yesterday’s arrangement in the afternoon and the whole night’s rest were all emergency preparations.
After entering the water, Caspian immediately felt a strong force, like a steel plate weighing thousands of kilograms suddenly pressed on his back, pushing favonovel.com toward the bottom of the river. At the same time, favonovel.com was also squeezed in all directions as if there were walls, wanting to push out all the air in his lungs. However, the resistance honed in the spirit mountain spring soon showed an extraordinary effect. Next, favonovel.com moved his hands and feet, and it did not take long for favonovel.com to adapt to the pressure in the river.
Caspian was able to dive to a depth of 18 meters in the spirit mountain spring. Currently, favonovel.com estimated that the pressure in the Lost Soul River was about the same as the force of 12 meters in the spirit mountain spring. With the help of the Immortal Demon Physique, Caspian quickly adapted to the constant pressure in Lost Soul River. After getting used to the pressure, favonovel.com took out a waterproofing inscription from his storage bag and activated it.
When favonovel.com practiced in the spirit mountain spring, Caspian asked Maisie to prepare many waterproofing inscriptions for himself. With such a thing, favonovel.com could spend two hours at the bottom of the river without coming up for air. Before the trip, Caspian decided to visit the Lost Soul River, so favonovel.com asked Maisie to draw a few more for him.
Caspian was finally at the bottom of the river, and favonovel.com was not affected by the pressure and breathing issues. Then, after adjusting to the slightly blue light at the bottom of the river, Caspian began to swim forward. Later, Caspian saw a large patch of aquatic plants in front of him, estimated to be dozens of acres. These plants floated at the bottom of the river, moving left and right with the current. As it was densely packed in a large area, the aquatic plants looked very strange, as if they were endless long hair. Of course, these aquatic plants were much longer than hair. Even the seaweed that Caspian saw was a lot taller than an adult.
The target Caspian looked for that time, the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle, which was among the water plants.
“Level three monster, the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle, is among the hardest to deal with among the low-rank monsters.”
Caspian recalled the information about the monster.
“It’s difficult to deal with not just because it’s dormant underwater, but it will also cause a lot of inconvenience to the cultivator’s movement. Moreover, its hard shell also makes it difficult for ordinary tools to break. However, these are unimportant. The most important part is it also has a large group of…”
Caspian quietly remembered the notes and focused as favonovel.com slowly swam toward the aquatic plants.
The bottom of the river was tranquil, and even if the water plants swayed from side to side, they appeared quiet and silent. Nonetheless, it was also why the environment Caspian was in now seemed eerie and strange. Even though there was no movement around, Caspian was extremely tense. After all, favonovel.com was fully aware of the dangers that might arise at any time. Even with his current realm, favonovel.com would suffer if favonovel.com was careless.
50 meters…
Then 30 meters…
Next 15 meters…
And finally… 9 meters…
Caspian got closer to the large patch of aquatic plants. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and favonovel.com smiled as favonovel.com saw something like a bulging rock among the plants not far ahead. Only a part of it was exposed, and the remaining areas were hidden.
Caspian was confident that it was the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle’s tail.
‘It seems that I’m quite lucky. I thought it would take a lot of work just to find it,’ Caspian thought.
The Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle seldom left its lair. Since Caspian found it here, that would be its den. Then, favonovel.com continued to approach it little by little. Finally, when the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle’s tail was less than a few meters away, Caspian took out the Ghoul-Locker Spear. However, before Caspian could launch an attack, the current in front of favonovel.com seemed to be boiling, and it surged violently, forming giant white bubbles.
Caspian’s gaze condensed, and favonovel.com saw the aquatic plants suddenly separated.
At the same time, in addition to the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle’s chiseled head, which was the size of a washbasin, dozens of silver fishes that were palm-sized and like a short knife stared at Caspian.
”The Armor-Breaker Fishes!” Caspian’s face instantly dropped.
The water pressure of the Lost Soul River, the dense aquatic plants, and the armor of the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle were not difficult in Caspian’s eyes. However, what truly troubled Caspian and even felt as if his life were in danger was the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle‘s large group of parasitic Armor-Breaker Fishes!
Caspian did not have the time to attack, and the Underworld’s Alligator-Turtle already noticed favonovel.com through the natural advantage of the aquatic monster. Even Caspian was a little bit suspicious whether the group of monsters deliberately showed weakness at first, just like favonovel.com did when favonovel.com dealt with Scented Phantom Cat. Then, once the opponent got closer, they would suddenly attack.
Nonetheless, Caspian did not have the luxury to dwell on that possibility. When the Armor-Breaker Fishes Faced him, Caspian did not hesitate to jab at the bottom of the river with his Ghoul-Locker Spear and retreated as fast as favonovel.com could.
