Dragon Abyss Boat!
When Yan returned, he was steaming hot and laughed heartily:
"That's great! Water or fire, brute force will overcome anything! It's just that it consumes a lot of Soul Power, and setting fire in water is too strenuous!"
Finally, it's Hu Liena.
Her opponent was a Sea Soul Master with considerable mental strength, Martial Soul "Phantom Sound Siren," a three-ring Soul Elder who was skilled at creating illusions through sound to disturb the mind.
This was a worthy opponent for Hu Liena, who was known for her Charm control.
Douluo I began, the Phantom Sound Siren submerged into the water and used a special Soul Skill to blend her song into the water's ripples, spreading an invisible and intangible mental attack.
Hu Liena stood on the platform, not flustered. She closed her eyes, and the phantom of Demon Fox appeared behind her. Her third Soul Ring lit up, not as an active Charm, but as a "Mental Barrier"!
A pink halo enveloped itself, blocking out most of the invisible sound waves.
At the same time, with her keen mental perception, she Lock-On her opponent's position in the water. Her first Soul Skill, "Charm," was not a direct attack, but rather transformed into countless fine mental threads that penetrated in the opposite direction of the opponent's sound waves!
This is a sophisticated form of reverse mental tracking and interference.
The Phantom Sound Siren in the water soon discovered that not only was her singing unable to move the other party, but she also felt as if her mind was being subtly drawn in, and her rhythm began to become disordered.
Hu Liena seized the opportunity and ignited her second Soul Skill, Fox Fire. However, instead of attacking, she transformed the Fox Fire into countless tiny points of light, scattering them onto the water's surface. As the water rippled due to the opponent's Soul Skill, the changing distribution of the points of light indirectly revealed her movement trajectory.
In the end, Hu Liena anticipated her opponent's surfacing breathing point and delivered a precise Charm, instantly dazed the newly emerged Phantom Sound Siren, who froze in place and was declared incapacitated by the referee.
When Hu Liena returned, her forehead was slightly sweaty, clearly indicating that this mental battle was not easy.
"The mental attack methods of Sea Soul Master are unique, utilizing water waves for conduction, making them more concealed and covering a wider range. They require stronger mental focus and reverse perception abilities."
Lin Xia listened to the four people's brief explanations and nodded slightly.
"Indeed, everyone Harvest something. They've adapted to the environment and found ways to cope. In particular, Yan Zi's control over poison, Xie Yue's use of the terrain, Yan's insistence on brute force, and Nana's grasp of mental warfare are all very valuable. Sea Soul Master are not invincible, but we must respect their home-field advantage and play to their strengths while avoiding their weaknesses."
By this time, all four had finished their battle. Although their levels of fatigue varied, none of them were seriously injured. Under the gentle light of Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia, they quickly recovered.
Let's go.
Lin Xia stood up.
"We've had our hands-on experience; time to get down to business. Auction House and see if they have anything we need."
The Vast Sea Great Soul Arena and the Auction House are part of the same massive building complex, connected by internal passageways.
Guided by the waiter, Lin Xia and her group quickly arrived at the entrance of the Auction House.
After paying ten Gold Soul Coin to purchase a bidding paddle and depositing one hundred Gold Soul Coin as collateral, each of them received a number paddle that emitted a faint glow, like a guiding light in the dimly lit Auction House.
Pushing open the heavy Soundproof door, the noise was instantly shut out.
The Auction House was dimly lit, with only the auction stage illuminated by bright Soul Guidance Lamp.
The audience seating area extended downwards in a fan shape, densely packed with people, but most were hidden in the darkness, with only the faint light of their signs flashing like stars in the night sky.
The auction had clearly been going on for some time, and a Soul Tool made of Deep Sea Pearl was being auctioned on the stage, with bids rising and falling.
Lin Xia led the group to find a few empty seats in the last row.
This spot offers a wide view, allowing you to see the entire area clearly without drawing attention.
Not long after they sat down, the Pearl Soul Tool on the stage was sold for 30,000 Gold Soul Coin.
The hostesses brought out the new items for auction, and the auctioneer cleared his throat, his voice amplified through the Amplifier Soul Tool, carrying a uniquely persuasive quality.
"Next, we will be auctioning a Soul Tool, best suited for use in near-shore areas, known as the conqueror of the sea— the Dragon Abyss Boat!"
Dragon Abyss Boat?
Lin Xia's heart skipped a beat, and her gaze instantly focused on the auction stage.
The hostess brought out a brocade tray covered with a red cloth, on which lay a strangely shaped object.
This object has a smooth, spindle-shaped appearance with beautiful lines, seemingly combining the characteristics of a dragon and a fish.
The front end is carved into the shape of a majestic dragon head, with slightly open eyes and clearly defined whiskers, lifelike and exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.
The tail, resembling a fish tail standing upright with sharp lines, seems to contain powerful propulsion.
On each side of the shuttle, there are four wing-like structures, as thin as cicada wings and shaped like fish fins, symmetrically distributed and slightly swept back, giving the impression that it is ready to break through the waves at any time.
It has a warm, milky white color throughout, and its texture is neither gold nor wood, but more like that of fine jade. Its surface is smooth and lustrous, with a subtle inner radiance.
It was about a foot long from beginning to end, small and exquisite, but even though Lin Xia and the others were sitting in the last row, they could still clearly feel the stable and strange energy fluctuations emanating from the Dragon Abyss Boat.
The fluctuations were not intense, but rather profound and restrained, as if they contained some kind of mystery of spatial folding.
A knowing smile involuntarily appeared on Lin Xia's lips.
He remembered that there seemed to be such an item in the original work, with quite magical effects, making it an excellent tool for sea voyages and explorations.
Unexpectedly, we met here.
The auctioneer's voice rose in pitch, becoming increasingly Captivate.
"Distinguished guests, please take a close look! This Soul Tool is the Dragon Abyss Boat. There is only one of its kind. It is an ancient artifact, and the craftsmanship used to make it has long been lost. It is truly a unique piece!"
He walked to the brocade tray, carefully pointed to the Dragon Abyss Boat, and continued his introduction.
"This item has extremely unique effects; it requires Soul Master to activate it with Soul Power to reveal its true form."
"Its prototype is about twelve meters long and about two meters in diameter at its widest point. The interior space has been specially expanded to accommodate twelve to fifteen passengers at the same time."
"Its most distinctive feature is its ability to navigate both the surface and the depths of the ocean; it can sail on the surface like a regular ship, and it can also dive into the sea!"
A low gasp of amazement rose from the audience. A ship that can dive—that's a rare find!
The auctioneer was very satisfied with the audience's reaction, and his voice became even more enthusiastic.
"It is said that the Dragon Abyss Boat can dive to a depth of 300 meters! With it, there is no need to fear any storms when sailing on the sea. Once the wind and waves are huge, it can immediately dive into the deep water to avoid the raging waves on the surface. It can be described as a uniquely useful life-saving vessel!"
"This item is perfectly suited for both admiring the magnificent scenery of the sea and for use in lifesaving."
She paused, then added a heartwarming detail.
"When it transforms into its true form, the hull is completely transparent, allowing unobstructed views of the ocean from any angle. It's incredibly magical, like being in a crystal palace, dancing with Schooling!"
"Of course, its defensive capabilities are also quite impressive, capable of withstanding attacks from Soul Skill of Hundred-Year Soul Beast."
