In the next instant, the Incense Spirit Pearls fell into a brocade pouch. With a whoosh, he flung it away, and in the blink of an eye, it was dozens of miles off. He plunged rapidly beneath the surface, withdrawing his perception completely. Even submerged underwater, he could still feel a colossal creature sweep overhead.
The instant that enormous creature passed, the entire sea shook. Suddenly, something dropped from its rear end. In an instant, the whole sea was ablaze, blue flames surging up as the giant turds, like a sheet of tarnished silver, drifted and sank to the seabed.
Xu Yi swam more than ten miles underwater before escaping the ghostly flames. He then stayed submerged for another half hour, silently enduring, before daring to poke his head above the surface. He was now thoroughly shaken. He had still underestimated how terrifying the Chaotic Abyss Sea was. He would swear to heaven that the monstrous thing he had just seen was no mere second-rank beast.
Using Incense Spirit Pearls to lure prey here was practically suicide, Xu Yi muttered. Just then, a streak of golden light shot toward him and struck him square in the chest. An Ironback Eagle had dived from the clouds like a bolt of lightning. Xu Yi had no time to react before it pierced through his chest.
Just as the Ironback Eagle was about to drag Xu Yi into the sky, a sharp claw suddenly thrust up from beneath the water and cracked its skull. Xu Yi swiftly took its beast core, cursing his rotten luck. He no longer dared to be careless and slowly released his perception. This time, he had completely lost track of that terrifying creature.
Only then did Xu Yi emerge from beneath the surface. Myriad Bone Skeleton remained submerged.
