The massive fleet parted the seawater, seemingly slowly diving into the Azure Nether Ocean.

As you enter the water and gradually approach the seabed, you can see the seabed through the faint light emitted by the ship.

The further away from the Canglang Ocean, the flatter the seabed becomes.

Large patches of seaweed began to appear, spreading across the sandy seabed of the Azure Nether Ocean.

Although the fleet was large, it made very little noise as it passed by.

The stems and leaves of the aquatic plants sway gently in the water as boats pass by.

Outside the fleet, a barely perceptible Psychic Energy Shield was gradually unfolding, enveloping all the ships that had entered the water.

Therefore, the moment Shisui approached within a hundred meters of the fleet, he immediately stopped.

Beneath the nictitating membrane, the scarlet pupil of the Kakugan focused.

Blood emanated from the black whites of his eyes, blooming into crimson cracks at the corners.

Rc Cells were injected into the eye socket, and the long-dormant Kakugan was fully activated, capturing the outline of the transparent Psychic Energy Protection Network surrounding the fleet.

Intricate patterns are faintly visible on the protective netting.

Its powerful shielding and concealment capabilities are sufficient proof of its value.

Something's not right.

With just one glance, Shisui made his judgment.

The dense array of magic circles drawn on the protective netting was even more complex than the magic circle that had previously summoned the tsunami.

The concentrated and persistent energy fluctuations on it alone are far superior to any magic array that summons a tsunami.

It's important to know that the magic circle that summoned the tsunami was deployed within the prince's direct army.

Both the Second Prince Yuan Yuan and the Third Prince Yuanli used them in Yin City and Mao City respectively.

And this fleet was used even better than the princes' and the military's.

In other words, their priority is higher than that of the Dragon Spirit Species's heir apparent.

"Tsk, this research institute seems to be a department directly under the Dragon King."

Shisui, following the fleet at a distance that was neither too close nor too far in the Alternate Space.

With that protective net in place, he couldn't remotely monitor the fleet.

Therefore, it would be impossible to find the Sea Race Second Research Institute through the Radiant Feathers Anchor.

It seems he'll have to follow behind himself.

Deep in the ocean, behind the fleet, a faint sigh dissipated into the water.

At this moment, outside the Dragon Palace of Chongming City, in front of the former Prime Minister Guan Xiangming's residence.

"Clatter!"

Wounded and bloodied, Yuan Yuan out of the Space Wormhole and lay face down on an empty street.

The moment he landed, Yuan Yuan lost consciousness.

To be precise, his body was forced into a state of severe injury and unconsciousness after passing through the Space Wormhole.

Shisui, after all, was a long-range teleportation of Spatial Energy, and was too lazy to further refine the rough edges inside the Wormhole —that is, the Spatial Turbulence.

The chaotic Spatial Energy exacerbated Yuan Yuan's injuries, becoming the final straw that broke his back.

His body could no longer hold on, and the machine shut down on the spot.

Yuan Yuan's soul remained within his body.

It's like being trapped in a dark room right now, completely losing all awareness of the outside world.

But his equally wounded and weary soul could not easily leave his body.

Leaving would only worsen the wounds on his soul.

He could only pray that a passing patrol or a glass street lamp would spot him in time.

"It's okay, someone will find you soon."

[Survival in Desperate Situations] glanced around at the surrounding Radiant Feathers, and then a voice echoed Yuan Yuan the depths of his soul.

Shisui implanted Rc Cells in it and also granted it some of the rights to use Radiant Feathers.

It was now nestled next to Yuan Yuan's original talent, occupying that talent's place.

The similar location makes it easier for Yuan Yuan to believe that [Survival in Desperate Situations] is a talent born to escape the bombing by Human Race.

Accompanied by the prophetic words of "[Survival in Desperate Situations]", a patrolling city guard "just happened" to pass by.

"Um?"

The soldier spotted the "corpse" lying in the middle of the road at a glance.

The body was covered in blood, with numerous burns and large amounts of peeling skin.

As he approached, he noticed the faint rise and fall of the other person's chest, and realized that the person was not a corpse.

Immediately afterwards, he saw the other person's forehead stained crimson with blood.

It is long and slender, rising upwards and slightly curved, and its shape is very similar to dragon horns.

The soldier was suddenly startled, because his brain, which had been somewhat dormant during the night shift, instantly came back online.

He immediately squatted down and tugged at his sleeve.

Then, he carefully began to wipe the corners of the person in front of him with the fabric from his sleeve.

The moment the bloodstains faded, a light ink-like color appeared, causing the soldier's pupils to tremble and his entire body to panic.

Holy crap, it really is Dragon Spirit Species!

The soldier immediately and shakily took out his communicator and dialed the number to the Dragon Palace Imperial Guards, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

"Ding, hello, this is the outer wall of the Dragon Palace..."

The moment the communicator connected, the soldier immediately spoke, interrupting the other operator's pre-arranged conversation.

"Please locate the position of my communicator's Psychic Energy signal reflection. A critically injured, dying Dragon Spirit Species has been discovered here."

As soon as the words were spoken, the previously gentle atmosphere on the other end of the communicator abruptly changed, and the voice became undeniably serious.

"Please wait where you are. The Imperial Guard will arrive shortly. Please do not disconnect during this time."

"Clear."

The soldier took a deep breath of seawater, feeling increasingly frustrated.

In such cases, even if he is not the instigator, the person who first discovered it will be classified as a suspect.

This involves the Dragon Spirit Species, so the Imperial Guard's overreaction is understandable.

In less than a minute, the Imperial Guards arrived at the scene.

Special protective netting was deployed simultaneously, sealing off an area of half a kilometer around the incident site.

From this moment forward, this area is off-limits to unauthorized personnel and is strictly prohibited from being spied on.

The next moment, the royal physician, who had been notified by the Dragon Palace, also arrived at the scene.

Yuan Yuan, whose injuries were clearly quite severe just by looking at him, was recognized.

The doctors, their faces grave, connected to the body's interior through some special method.

This allowed the sound to enter Yuan Yuan's malfunctioning body.

"Your Highness, how is your soul? Can it be transferred?"

They didn't have enough equipment to quickly assess the soul's condition, so they simply asked the person in question.

"The transfer should be fine."

Yuan Yuan's voice came out extremely weakly, light and airy, as if it would dissipate at any moment.

Seeing that Yuan Yuan's soul was still relatively clear, the doctors immediately took out an exquisite box.

As soon as the box was opened, pure Psychic Energy surged out.

In the center of the box is a transparent, jelly-like sphere.

That was a specially made container by the Second Research Institute, used to temporarily hold souls.

Yuan Yuan's soul was drawn away from his tattered old body by pure Psychic Energy.

His soul was not human-shaped; it was hazy and indistinct, but one could discern that it had two horns on its head, was long and slender like a snake, and had four claws on its body.

The soul appeared in the outside world for only half a second before disappearing into the temporary vessel in the next moment.

Upon seeing the Second Prince merge into the vessel, the physicians immediately closed the box protecting the vessel.

The pure Psychic Energy ceased to flow and slowly dissipated into the seawater.

The physicians, carrying the lifeless old body, immediately rushed towards the Dragon Palace.

At this moment, Yuan Yuan was finally completely rescued.
