Stone Gate was forcibly exploded.

Luo Lie led Elite Hunters team into Truth Society's secret Cave.

Zheng Hongxin and dozens of High-Rank Sacrifice personnel stood up one after another and looked at these uninvited guests.

Seeing the blood stains on their clothes and the smoking gun barrels in their hands, I instantly understood that the guards outside had been eliminated.

"Is this Saint Relic?"

Luo Lie looked up at "Truth Stone Tablet" standing high on the altar, his eyes full of curiosity and desire.

As he spoke, he strode forward with such arrogance and arrogance that the Truth Society members felt dissatisfied.

"Stop!"

One High Priest shouted angrily.

Luo Lie glanced at him sideways.

The man couldn't help but tremble all over, and then he seemed to be hit in the chest by an invisible force and flew backwards.

Just when his back was about to be penetrated by Stalactite as sharp as Spear, a hand with thick bones grabbed his collar and pulled him back to the ground.

Luo Lie's pupils narrowed and he looked intently.

As if teleporting, an old man appeared next to High Priest and rescued him.

"Are you Vice President Zheng Hongxin of Truth and Meditation Co-cultivation Society?"

Luo Lie looked at him curiously. "I heard that thirty years ago you fought against the first commander Special Search Team and escaped with your life. How much strength do you still retain now?"

Then he glanced at the other Sacrifice personnel who were gearing up, and said with a hint of joking:

"You Truth Society look like your talents are withering. You are a bunch of crooked people. Why don't you just join our organization? There will be no problem in joining Board of Directors with your strength."

Zheng Hongxin was silent, but his body vaguely exuded a strange Aura.

Suddenly, his body flashed and he sprinted towards Luo Lie in an instant.

Luo Lie reacted extremely quickly, almost instinctively waving his hands and using Psychic Wall to defend himself.

In just 0.05 seconds.

Zheng Hongxin leaned over and sprinted, spanning a distance of more than ten meters.

At the same time, the muscles in his arms bulged out, shockingly breaking through his clothes, revealing his blue-black skin.

Bang!

A Boxing hit Psychic Wall, and a silent air wave vibrated out.

Everyone just felt their ears buzzing.

Luo Lie, who received a heavy blow from the front, was shaken and took half a step back.

Seeing the leader starting to take action, the others immediately reacted.

The pursuers immediately raised their guns and fired at Zheng Hongxin and Shooting.

Truth Society members also quickly pounced on the intruding enemies.

The battle between the two sides broke out instantly like a powder keg being ignited.

Zheng Hongxin faced the bullet, dodged and moved around, turned around and punched one Elite Hunters so hard that his chest was dented and he flew backwards.

As if to express with actions, if you dare to attack my people, I will retaliate by killing your people.

This kind of attitude of getting started without saying a word, it seems that Zheng Hongxin definitely had a hot temper when he was young.

Seeing that the bullets could not hit the opponent at all, Luo Lie immediately issued an order:

"Everyone get out of the way and let me deal with him!"

As he spoke, his eyes glowed with blue light, locking onto the fast-moving target.

Then an extremely powerful Force Field instantly shrouded it, and like Prison Cage, it continued to squeeze and shrink towards the center.

Feeling the solidification coming from the surrounding air, Zheng Hongxin immediately stopped and said coldly:

"I'm just old, not dead."

As he spoke, his body muscles expanded further, his hands and feet became abnormally thick, and even fish scales were exposed on the surface of his blue skin.

He exudes Danger Aura, as if he is liberating a power that has been hidden for a long time.

Then he suddenly broke free from the restraints of Force Field, as if a bullet was fired, and with a "swish" sound, he rushed towards Luo Lie with lightning speed.

"Well done!"

Luo Lie's pupils contracted rapidly, condensing all Telekinesis Control Force Field, defending itself while attacking the opponent.

Although there were some surprises, he quickly stabilized his position and ignited a strong desire to fight.

Decided to compete with the rumored Truth Society Vice President.

Both of them ignored the sounds of fighting coming from their subordinates around them and stared intently at the most Danger enemy in front of them.

As long as the opponent is eliminated, all problems will be solved.

Just when the entire Cave was caught in a melee and no one was paying attention.

A new image emerged of Truth Stone Tablet standing on the altar.

It was a dark, silent, rippling sea water.

As the perspective extends deeper, there are faint blue light spots twinkling like stars.

Bang!

A gunshot pierced the night sky, and was immediately drowned in the violent storm.

Several corpses were lying on the bumpy fishing boat, and blood gurgled out and spread along the deck.

"Stop!"

Feng Kehai shouted sharply.

"Haven't you figured it out yet?"

Li Chengjun glanced at him, raised the muzzle of his gun, and held it against the head of a Truth Society member who collapsed next to him.

Then, there was another "bang" sound.

Blood spattered and the bullet hit the target's temple.

"You..."

Feng Kehai was so angry that he could not speak.

Li Chengjun's crazy gesture didn't leave enough time for himself to think about it.

Seeing him raising his gun again, seemingly choosing his next target, he hurriedly agreed:

"Okay, I'll cooperate with you!"

Hearing this sentence, Li Chengjun instantly smiled:

"Just think about it. Cooperation is good for everyone. I'm not a natural-born murderer."

"Let's do this, Ancient Remains will be salvaged later, we will have seven points, I will have seven points, and you will have three points. It's very fair and reasonable..."

As if his face changed as he spoke, he patted Feng Kehai on the shoulder affectionately and discussed with him the fishing operation in the sea.

At the same time, others also began to make preparations.

A bracket was raised on the other side of the ship, and a huge 200,000-lumen searchlight was pointed at the seabed and turned on.

Such strong light is enough to illuminate the Deep Water Area area about 150 meters away from the sea surface, ensuring the safety of underwater operations.

Ten pursuer members, wearing a complete set of Diving equipment and carrying special weapons for underwater use, lined up on the side of the ship.

Unlike Truth Society members, all of them are proficient in water-based materials, so they have done enough preparation work.

Since Feng Kehai was worried, Li Chengjun decided to stay on the ship and personally take care of the hostages and equipment.

His subordinate Ability User A Jie has woken up and is responsible for leading the team into the sea.

The main task is to supervise the Truth Society personnel who salvage the treasures to work honestly and prevent them from taking the opportunity to escape.

The three Truth Society members just wore simple Diving clothes, put on hooks and ropes, and plunged in at once.

Upon seeing this, the pursuer members also jumped into the sea one after another.

The waves on the sea surface were rolling, like wild beasts coming out of their cages and rushing towards them.

If you are not careful, you can easily be knocked over by the waves and lose control of your body.

But once you dive underwater, the violent sea begins to become docile.

The searchlight illuminates the area close to the sea brightly, forming an unimpeded road.

And the further you dive, the smaller the signs of fluctuations in the sea water become, making it appear calmer and quieter.

No matter how big the wind and waves are, it will have basically no impact if it reaches less than 30 meters.

At this time, except for the sound of water splash caused by Diving's own swimming, there was almost no other sound.

A Jie and ten pursuers followed three Truth Society Salvage Crew and kept swimming in the direction of Seafloor Rift.

Suddenly, there was a strange sound like water waves being split.

Everyone immediately followed the sound and saw pairs of green eyes floating in the dark sea water.

Faintly, you can still see the dark green scales that are shining with a dark luster.

It was Mermaid who was attracted.

A Jie and the pursuer team members immediately felt their hearts tremble, and their whole body muscles tightened.

Perhaps because the searchlights were too bright, they just hid in the darkness and kept wandering, and did not launch a rash attack.

When the three Truth Society salvage workers saw this, they immediately made a low and strange sound.

Then, those Mermaid seemed to hesitate for a moment, then turned around and swam towards darker waters.

A Jie breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was fortunate that Mr. Envoy had thought carefully, otherwise a fierce battle would have been inevitable.

Thinking of this, he immediately cheered up and decided to use his outstanding task performance to atone for his sins and restore the impression he had in Envoy's heart.

Then he put his gun to the back of the Truth Society member who was swimming in front, forcing them to continue diving.

The light of the searchlight shines into the sea water, forming a cylindrical "Tunnel of Light" to guide the direction of progress.

There is no mistake, every song is published and every content is read one by one!

However, due to seawater scattering, as the depth deepens, this "Light Path" begins to become dim and blurry.

A large number of tiny plankton float in it, making the entire channel look like a floating ribbon.

A Jie paddled the water waves with both hands and looked down.

The white Volcanic Ash Rock Layer can be vaguely seen, as well as a dark crack across the seabed.

That's where the destination is.

A few minutes later.

Everyone stepped on the Volcanic Ash Rock stone and finally arrived at the target location.

A Jie exhaled a breath of bubbles from Diving Face Mask and glanced at the fluorescent Dive Depth Gauge on his wrist.

It shows that the water depth at this location is astonishingly 53 meters, which is equivalent to the height of an 18-story building.

He raised his head and looked at the dark sea surface and the exit of the passage with only a spot of light left, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.

Then I lowered my head and took a look at the bottomless crack, and I saw Bathophobia.

It always felt like a big fish or unknown creature would rush out and swallow him whole.

At this time, A Jie suddenly remembered something very important.

Where is the "Ancient Remains" that Mr. Envoy is talking about?

He turned his attention to the three Truth Society Salvage Crew and found that they were also looking around, looking a little confused.

Several pursuers raised their flashlights and shined in the distance.

In the endless darkness, the blue light described in the description was vaguely flickering in other directions in the sea area.

A Jie was confused, so he contacted the sea surface through underwater Walkie-Talkie.

On a fishing boat.

After Li Chengjun received the message, he frowned and looked at Feng Kehai:

"Isn't this the location where you focus on salvage? Why haven't you found even a piece of Ancient Remains?"

"I don't know either."

Seeing that his eyes were a little unkind, Feng Kehai quickly explained, "According to previous years' experience, this is the best location for salvage. It can't be wrong. Maybe it's still too early..."

"Wait, what is that?!"

Before he finished speaking, A Jie's slightly surprised voice came from Walkie-Talkie.

Down from the sea surface, Seafloor Rift is more than fifty meters deep.

Everyone stepped on the water and came to the edge of Cliff, all looking down.

The light from the searchlight penetrates here, and there are still a large number of unscattered light particles, illuminating part of the scene under Abyss.

Everyone's eyes continued to descend along this "Tunnel of Light", and finally landed at the end of the intersection of light and darkness.

Suddenly, I discovered a group of Unknown Substance emitting blue fluorescent light gathered there.

The light is like a dream, with wisps and wisps of light, misty and uncertain, forming a fairyland-like Tyndall Effect.

In the surrounding dark waters, there are many dark green figures like Demon wandering around.

Those are Mermaid in the deep sea. They are entangled and surrounding each other, as if they are guarding something.

If you look carefully, you can still see Mermaid and a vague humanoid figure surrounded by blue light.

What's going on?

Looking at such a strange scene in Abyss, almost at the same time, everyone's hearts suddenly jumped.

A Jie used the rifle in his hand to poke the younger Truth Society Salvage Crew next to him.

The young man looked frightened and shook his head vigorously.

Obviously I really don't know what is going on.

A Jie frowned slightly, so he described the bizarre scene he saw to Master Envoy through Walkie-Talkie.

"Use Infrasonic Gun to drive away Mermaid and salvage the things quickly!"

Li Chengjun's command came to his ears through Walkie-Talkie, and his tone sounded very urgent and severe.

A Jie had no choice but to do as he was told.

There isn't much oxygen stored in the cylinder, so it won't be a problem if it continues to be delayed.

Other team members had already received the order and took out their weapons one after another, getting ready for battle.

One of the team members even raised a special-shaped rifle and aimed at the blue light in Abyss.

Buzz--

As the trigger was pulled, the muzzle did not fire any physical ammunition, but instead fired a high-intensity Directed Infrasound.

Low-frequency harmful sound waves spread rapidly in the seawater, forming circles of tiny ripples that spread to a depth of more than 150 meters.

The groups of Mermaid suddenly let out a low and sharp hiss Crying Sound, and then dispersed loudly.

Then, the truth about the thing emitting blue light was finally revealed.

That's...

Pieces of huge skeleton fragments, like the remains of monsters, were suspended in the pitch black Abyss.

The blue light emitted is so strange that it gives you a vague tingling sensation after looking at it for a long time.

Everyone's eyes were shining and their hearts were ecstatic.

This should be the legendary Ancient Remains!

A Jie immediately urged Truth Society members to go salvage immediately.

The three Truth Society members had no choice but to take the risk and continue diving deeper.

At this moment, there was a sound like a surging tide in Seafloor Rift, or like thunder echoing and rolling in the silent and empty Abyss.

Rumble--

The sound waves drive the heavy sea water, setting off layers of water waves, dispersing the turbulent undercurrent, and also rushing those Ancient Remains into the distance.

When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

However, the next second, they all froze on the spot.

Because at this moment, the figure that was originally hidden in the blue light group was completely revealed.

And, it became extremely clear.

It was a young man completely naked.

He stood quietly in Abyss, suspended in the sea water.

The light from the searchlight is like a floating ribbon, caressing the finely carved muscle lines on the body like a work of art.

It shows an indescribable masculine beauty and peaceful artistic conception.

It looks like Sea God in the Ancient Greece sculpture, or a standing Buddha statue.

Those Mermaid who were driven away began to return one after another, as if they were summoned by some kind of summons.

Surrounded by it, it looks like Demon, the legendary god and Buddha Guardian.

And this "Tunnel of Light" extending from the sea was established precisely to welcome his birth.

There was Mermaid attached to the man's ear, whispering softly.

It seemed to be waking him up, or telling him something.

The darkness Abyss that ordinary people cannot reach is surrounded by light Demon, making this scene full of a strange divinity.

It also made everyone who saw this scene feel horrified, with an indescribable sense of fear and expectation intertwined.

Just then.

The man suddenly opened his eyes, and his gaze seemed to pass through the heavy sea water and shoot to everyone.

The update is a little late. I wish everyone a smooth work, a successful career, and a happy life in the new year!
