Chapter 961 - 323: Achievement and Limits

Crash~~

Roar roar roar!

At the spacetime node deep in the ocean, giant sea beasts, Sea Race, and demons were locked in fierce battles.

The intensity was no less than that of the nodes appearing on land.

Lin Zheyu was covered in purple-black scale armor, operating the yet-to-be-perfect Heavenly Deceit Skill, strolling among the demons.

With the disguise of demonic energy combined with the aura concealment of the Heavenly Deceit Skill, Lin Zheyu blended perfectly among them.

Awo!

A giant sea beast roared as it charged toward Lin Zheyu.

Lin Zheyu stepped with his right foot, disappearing instantaneously from his spot, and reappearing a kilometer away.

The golden Celestial Eye in his sea of consciousness opened.

Lin Zheyu had no intention of engaging; he became a spectator, an observer, hidden in the dark, watching the fighting techniques of the giant sea beasts and Sea Race.

Since Lin Zheyu had rarely interacted with them, to prevent any future disadvantages due to lack of understanding, he needed to first collect some data related to the Sea Race.

"These sea beasts and Sea Race have a home advantage in the deep sea, practicing almost exclusively water-based magic."

"And some of the Sea Race seem to have the ability to control the sea beasts..."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly, secretly collecting information on the fighting styles and tactics of the sea beasts and Sea Race.

Boom!

Suddenly, an impressively powerful water bomb whizzed toward Lin Zheyu.

His Heavenly Deceit Skill hadn’t been cultivated to perfection, and when operated together with the Primordial Golden Body, it caused a slight conflict with the Martial Arts Divine Pattern on him.

As a result, the power of the Cultivation Technique couldn’t be fully demonstrated.

Thus, some Sea Race with strong perception could discover Lin Zheyu, this anomaly hidden among demons.

"Quick, catch it!"

"This guy seems to be an intelligent type demon fiend!"

The Sea Race from afar transmitted to their companions.

Boom!

Immediately after, his expression changed drastically!

The humanoid demon fiend cloaked in splendid scale armor suddenly appeared before him.

The speed was unbelievably fast!

Splash!

The Sea Race man quickly reacted, his spiritual power roaring as he became the center of towering waves surging out, rushing towards the surroundings.

It seemed he wanted to rely on this terrifying impact to block Lin Zheyu’s unexpected strike.

However...

Poof!

Lin Zheyu appeared unfazed; the wave crashed against him, merely making him sway slightly.

He stepped out with his right foot, utilizing "Shrink the Ground into Inches," arriving in front of the Sea Race man in the blink of an eye.

Lin Zheyu punched out, exploding him instantly under the terrified gaze of the Sea Race man.

A thick, bloody atmosphere spread out.

"Folage!"

A furious roar echoed.

Lin Zheyu grabbed the storage bag from the Sea Race man, his figure flickering, instantly disappearing from the spot.

He didn’t want to get entangled in battles with the Sea Race, leaving the demons to exploit the situation.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh—

In an instant, three figures swiftly arrived.

They looked at their companion who had been reduced to a pile of flesh, their expressions very grim.

"Notify the lord, a suspected powerful Six-Striped Demon Fiend has appeared at this spacetime node; request assistance!"

The leading Sea Race spoke solemnly.

He turned his head towards the direction of the spacetime node, his face gloomy.

So fast.

In such a short time, the spacetime node had already permitted the entry of Six-Striped Demon Fiends. Could it be that the spacetime node here is somewhat special?

"This spacetime node seems to have some anomalies. To be safe, instruct to speed up the array formation!!"

The Sea Race man pondered briefly and continued to instruct solemnly.

His right hand formed a seal, and an energy resembling a carp emerged from his body, then raced away at an astonishing speed.

The speed was incredibly fast.

Lin Zheyu watched their tactics in amazement.

He reached out with his right hand, casually grabbing the small fish condensed from energy.

"Interesting, what magic is this?"

Lin Zheyu spoke with curiosity.

The golden Celestial Eye opened, seeing through the composite nature of the fish’s illusion, penetrating its essence.

Lin Zheyu tried to simulate it with his internal energy, a shadow of energy condensed in the water.

But soon, it burst like a bubble.

"This is a bit complex..."

Lin Zheyu muttered to himself.

He tried several more times, ultimately shaking his head, abandoning the idea of learning stealthily.

This special Secret Technique couldn’t be grasped merely by seeing through the essence of the energy fish; it required understanding the corresponding Cultivation Technique.

Of course, currently, Lin Zheyu’s golden Celestial Eye isn’t strong enough.

Once his realm improves sufficiently, his Celestial Eye becomes powerful enough, and he might deduce the corresponding Cultivation Technique just by glancing at it.

Swoosh~~

Lin Zheyu moved slightly again, wandering among the demons.

Time slowly passed.

A day later.

Lin Zheyu felt the fatigue in his mind had vanished.

He observed that the Sea Race’s array was almost completed; estimating that it would need at least another half day to be entirely finished.

Half a day was enough for Lin Zheyu to accomplish many things.

He moved slightly again, returning to the dark void space.

Time passed slowly.

A few minutes later.

In the endless void, the black wind howled.

Powerful demons roared, emerging from the cracks of nodes connecting to the Demon Realm, rushing into the world where Lin Zheyu resided.

Beneath the void, in the chaotic Energy Lake filled with rules, sparkling golden light emitted.

Vast Vitality Energy spread out but was concealed by chaotic violent energy, failing to attract the attention of the demons.

Sigh~~

Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes, exhaling a long breath.
