The Pacific Ocean and the Tianpiao Ocean are closely connected, separated by the equator and the Ringwater Continent of the Ruolan Star.

Entering the Pacific Ocean is essentially equivalent to arriving in the Southern Hemisphere of Ruolan Star.

Therefore, the direction of ocean currents changes from the Tianpiao Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.

The Shisui Radiant Feathers, carried by the flowing seawater, clearly indicated this change.

Numerous active volcanoes, complex seabed topography, and exceptionally abundant Psychic Energy in the seawater.

These factors make the Pacific Ocean appear calm on the surface, but the waters beneath are far more treacherous than the Tianpiao Ocean suggests.

Driven by the ocean currents, the Radiant Feathers quickly spread outwards.

When Shisui consumed the fifth Flesh Crystals, a piece of Radiant Feathers suddenly discovered a seaweed forest.

In the eastern part, near the Tianpiao Ocean, it grows lush and abundant, taking root in the relatively flat sandy soil.

This place, which can be described as an underwater oasis, has very few marine creatures nearby.

At least before Shisui Sui's Radiant Feathers drifted into the seaweed forest, it encountered no living creatures.

"Hmm, there seems to be Psychic Energy fluctuation inside."

Through Radiant Feathers, Shisui could only perceive so much.

So he stood up, and with a slight exertion of his legs covered by his Koukaku, he fanned his Ukaku, instantly breaking through the seawater.

Shisui vanished in a blur, rushing directly eastward.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

The water was gently disturbed, and the sounds of snoring echoed among the seaweed, only to be blocked by the swaying seaweed stems and leaves.

Deep within this vast jungle, numerous sea creatures of varying sizes lurked about.

These sea beasts are not of high cultivation level, generally at the first to the Third Realm of the Profound Realm, much weaker than the group currently in Mao City.

They slept peacefully here, slowly absorbing the Psychic Energy that gathered around them.

It's like we're sharing a dream from which we'll never wake up.

Upon closer inspection, one will find that, like the surrounding seaweed, they are of a single species and are distributed in an unusually neat manner.

Shisui made his judgment shortly after arriving at the seaweed forest.

This is one of the Sea Race's temporary storage sites for their marine animals.

Furthermore, it is highly likely that a new batch of sea monster suicide squads is being trained here at this very moment.

Planting large amounts of seaweed can serve as a cover, and at the same time, it can be used to gather energy by taking advantage of the seaweed's ability to absorb and grow Psychic Energy.

This is to support these sea beasts that have fallen into hibernation and are slowly improving their cultivation levels.

Good idea.

Moreover, these cultivated seaweeds around us might even be harvested and used as food later.

The Sea Race probably aren't worried about being discovered.

In their view, terrestrial species that have not paid attention to changes in the ocean for a long time could not have discovered this place in a short period of time.

Moreover, everyone's attention is focused on Mao City and the Sea Race's stronghold.

For the time being, no one will pay attention to this seaweed forest where there are no other living creatures.

However, this actually benefited Radiant Feathers's ability to conduct a wide-ranging Shisui.

The Ghoul looked down at the sea monsters, which were densely packed like ants.

An exceptionally powerful sense of perception descended, completely enveloping them and the entire seagrass forest.

It's probably close to a million.

With Shisui understanding in mind, Radiant Feathers began to surround the core area of the seaweed forest, gradually sealing off the space.

While waiting for the blockade to be completed, he observed the sea creatures.

At first glance, they all look pretty much the same.

However, Shisui actually recognized quite a few familiar varieties among them.

The Mantis Shrimp possesses a pair of deliberately trained digging legs, making it adept at digging.

The Mantis Shrimp possesses barbed claws, making it adept at grasping and hunting.

Basically, they are all covered with carapaces, similar to the arthropods that Shisui had seen in his previous life.

The reason he recognized these sea creatures was because they were all products of Laboratory.

Furthermore, it was documented as a success story in the book "Soul, Body, and Psychic Energy".

It was the set of books that he took from the Shengtian Library, along with the rubbings.

For some inexplicable reason, Shisui suddenly remembered the publisher's name written on the book cover.

"Chongming Research Institute?"

This is probably an alias for that Sea Race First Research Institute.

"Click!"

The crisp cracking sound interrupted Shisui's wandering thoughts, bringing him back to his senses.

In less than half a minute, a large number of Radiant Feathers had been nailed into the core area of this seaweed forest.

The space was completely sealed off; nothing inside, neither the creatures nor the seawater, could escape.

The Rc Cells became agitated, and the fully expanded Ukaku resembled dark clouds.

It completely blocked out the few rays of sunlight that managed to penetrate the seawater, making the seabed even darker.

The Feather Bullets were charged up, and in the next moment, they were unleashed!

"Boom--!"

The barrage of attacks crashed down with all its might, causing a nearby section of the seabed to tremble violently.

The area that directly received the Feather Bullets sank nearly two meters deep.

The sudden attack stirred up the sand and mud on the seabed, making the seawater in this area extremely turbid.

The interior of the seagrass forest is therefore difficult to see clearly.

"Roar--!"

The mournful cries of the sea monsters then rang out, but were swallowed up by the dust raised by the attack.

There were sea creatures that attempted to rebel.

But often, as soon as they regain consciousness and flail their forelegs a couple of times, their bodies are pierced through by the Radiant Feathers.

The hard carapace is as thin as a layer of rice paper wrapping food in front of Rc Cells.

These Sea Race were so proud of and could be mass-produced, were essentially battlefield airdrops for Shisui.

Killing people is difficult; obtaining supplies is easy.

Nearly a million sea monsters were instantly shredded into minced meat awaiting the extraction of Flesh Crystals.

The seagrass forest was instantly shattered and then mixed into the crimson seawater.

From the outside, the Spatial Lockdown looks like a juicer.

The food inside is gradually blended into a nutritious gravy.

After a round of Feather Bullets ended, the two pairs of Ukaku retracted, returning to a size roughly the same as Shisui's body.

Then, Shisui lightly snapped his fingers.

"Smack!"

As the sound rang out, the space suddenly began to compress.

The red crystals were filtered of impurities by the outer wall of the Spatial Lockdown, and then precipitated out.

They then coalesced into identical Flesh Crystals.

These crystals were divided into two batches, one batch being fist-sized and intended for consumption.

The other batch was smaller in number and smaller in size, and was used by Shisui to inlay on earrings.

This wave of crystals collected was enough to propel Shisui across half the Pacific Ocean at full speed.

It might even be enough to allow him to dive into the Profound Grand Canyon and find the Sea Race's capital Chongming City.

Thinking of this, Shisui's mood visibly brightened.

Taking out the map, Shisui confirmed the route he had taken after coming here to find supplies.

After absorbing the Psychic Energy, the armor plates conveniently adjusted their route based on his location.

He flapped his wings, suddenly accelerated, and disappeared into the empty seaweed forest, following the map's guidance.
