"Did you know you were keeping strange entities at home?"
After the negotiations concluded.
A level nine "Construction Workshop" rose out of thin air on the Coast of "Eyi Continent".
Immediately afterwards--
One after another, "Giant Strange Entity" emerged from the Vehicle Workshop.
One after another, "Submersible Ship" were produced.
We are preparing to explore the subsidence area of the "Eyi Continent" on the Seabed.
The group of Mortal City members who came with the fleet also skillfully and quickly operated the Giant Strange Entity, moving the Submersible Ship to the surface of the sea, and then boarding the Submersible Ship to dive into the depths of the Seabed to explore.
Chen Fan led Vivian into a "Submersible Ship" and began to descend into the Azure ocean.
The cost of a "Submersible Ship" is not cheap.
10,000 Eerie Stone are needed.
It is a living sealed cabin with a hull that has a defensive strength equivalent to Level-2 City Wall. It comes equipped with Eerie Fire and simple Cannon Tower, and has an Oxygen- generating device inside.
A potted plant was placed in the corner of the Cabin.
"Sunfacing Grass".
One type of Exotic Plant, its effect is to continuously release Oxygen to the outside world. They were brought from the New Continent and are a standard combination for using "Submersible Ship".
"..."
Chen Fan stood by the window, looking out at the Sea Domain illuminated by the Eerie Fire. This was his first time diving into the depths of the Sea.
Dive to a depth of 100 meters.
A jellyfish, emitting a faint glow, drifted past in front of the boat.
Dive to 300 meters.
The temperature plummeted, and a chill crept into the cabin. In the distance, one could vaguely see a dark shadow, seemingly as large as a mountain, swimming by in the darkness, far exceeding the size of normal creatures.
It is "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity".
The Crippled Monkey's expression changed slightly as he explained, "I learned about this kind of Strange Entities in the Private School. It's a common Strange Entities in the deep sea, huge in size and quite aggressive."
"It can appear even during the day, but only in the deep sea; it cannot land."
Normally, the "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity" lives at depths of 1,000 to 4,000 meters on Seabed, a region also known as the "Midnight Zone" where light cannot reach, and the environment is dark, high-pressure, and cold.
"At this Seabed of only 300 meters, it is not a suitable environment for the 'Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity' to survive."
"Dive up."
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fan quickly issued the order to return. The Cannon Tower on the "Submersible Ship" were simply no match for these Strange Entities. The Strange Entities in the Sea Domain near the "Eternal Night Continent" had been cleared out, and the Submersible Ship could dive freely. However, there were still many Strange Entities in the Sea Domain near Eyi, and these Ghost Beings were something the Submersible Ship simply could not handle.
Soon--
The Submersible Ship quickly surfaced.
The "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity," which was only glimpsed briefly, did not follow, as if it merely watched them leave.
On the Eyi Continent.
Standing on the shoulder of a Ghost Emperor, Chen Fan turned his head to look at Jiu Wu beside him and said softly, "Do you know you're keeping ghosts in your house? The Sea Domain surrounding the Eyi Continent are full of ghosts, aren't you going to do anything about it?"
"Forehead..."
Jiu Wu was pondering the words "Eyi Continent." Was this a name change for him? His continent already had a name; he had named it "Old Continent, the Continent He Raised."
But upon hearing the rest of the conversation, he hesitated, somewhat confused, and said, "Um... Lord Chen, there might be some, but they're all hundreds or thousands of Thousand Meters deep in the Seabed. We can't go that far..."
"I'd like to help, but I'm powerless to do anything about it."
Chen Fan remained silent, expressionless.
He only saw one "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity," and didn't see any other Strange Entities. But why would a Strange Entities that lives in the deep sea appear at a depth of 300 meters?
The most likely possibility.
They were kicked out.
Someone has taken over my old home.
This means that at depths of 1,000 to 4,000 meters on the Seabed, there must be one or more Strange Entities stronger than the "deep-sea giants".
"Eyi Continent" was the first continental plate he explored.
There might be plenty of treasures hidden in the Seabed continental plates, and he even personally went to investigate, only to return empty-handed. It must be quite frustrating.
"Young Master."
As Chen Fan was standing on the edge of the beach thinking of a solution, Pu Lang strode over and said urgently, "The 'Submersible Ship' that went down with us just now didn't see any Strange Entities along the way, and it went all the way down to 1,000 meters."
"They saw a... gigantic, Strange Entities on the Seabed."
"Strange Entities even larger than the entire Nameless Mountain!"
"There is absolutely no record of such Strange Entities in the Private School."
"That Strange Entities is located much deeper in the Seabed. The reason it can Strange Entities seen clearly is because it emits a blinding light, like the sun. There are no other Strange Entities around; most of the Strange Entities in this area used to have fled."
"As for the 'Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity' we saw, we've already examined it up close; it's dead. It floated up from the Seabed."
"As well as..."
"Beneath this enormous, Strange Entities lies a continental plate that still retains its undulating contours, with faint traces of former mountains and architectural ruins."
"The deepest area is estimated to be 2,300 meters, which far exceeds the maximum diving depth of Submersible Ship 'Submersible Ship,' which is 1,000 meters."
"..."
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. He had found the answer: the "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity" had been driven out. As for the unknown Greater Wraith, perhaps Jiu Wu would know.
Such a large and Strange Entities could only survive in the deep sea.
They have no habitat on land.
The larger the body size.
This means that the more energy consumed, whether through eating or absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth and earth and darkness to maintain life, the more energy is required.
Soon.
Jiu Wu replied, saying he had never seen or heard of such Strange Entities.
The Mr. Na shook his head.
Nobody knows.
Information about the "Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity" was recorded in the Private School. They had absorbed all the records about Strange Entities in the Eternal Night Hall, including the Deep-Sea Giant Mountain Strange Entity. However, the Eternal Night Hall had absolutely no Strange Entities this huge monster that could also emit light.
Standing by the Seaside, Chen Fan shook the Heaven-Questioning Bell in his hand and whispered.
"It is known that there is a Strange Entities, larger than the entire Nameless Mountain, living in the Seabed at Sea Domain of 2300 meters. It emits a blinding light and is a solitary creature that drives away nearby Strange Entities."
The next moment--
The familiar, hoarse voice of Heaven-Questioning Bell rang in my ears.
This time, it's not a secret that can't be revealed.
"There is a Strange Entities that meets all the criteria."
"It is called, Heavenly Dao Strange."
"When a race of Strange Entities perishes, there is a certain probability that its Species Heavenly Dao will die and form a 'Heavenly Dao Strange,' with a strength level ranging from approximately level 15 to Level 100."
"This Strange Entities is enormous and can survive regardless of day or night, but it cannot land and its lowest Sea Domain depth is 2,000 meters, with its main activity being at depths of 2,000 to 4,000 meters."
"They need to draw upon the Continent Fortune to sustain their lives."
"It is the most hated parasitic Strange Entities on all continents. Accompanied by the 'Heavenly Dao Strange,' it sucks the lifeblood of a continent from the Seabed, gradually draining its fortune, causing more Calamity and less good fortune."
"The higher the racial level, the higher the initial level of the Heavenly Dao Strange that will be formed after its extinction, and it will also slowly increase its level by absorbing the Continent Fortune."
"..."
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly as he processed the news.
Although the Heaven-Questioning Bell is mostly used to conceal heavenly secrets, it can be quite useful sometimes.
This problem cost him 100 Eerie Stone.
Any questions.
Once the Heaven-Questioning Bell provides an answer, it will require 1 million Eerie Stone.
He took out 10 level 6 Eerie Stone from his pocket, crushed them in his hand, and the Red Grade liquid they emitted was quickly absorbed by the Heaven-Questioning Bell.
The Heaven-Questioning Bell is a pay-later service.
He could have chosen not to pay the 1 million Eerie Stone, but the Heaven-Questioning Bell would then be locked and unusable unless the outstanding Eerie Stone were paid.
"Call..."
Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He wasn't afraid of problems, he was afraid of problems that weren't clearly defined.
As long as the problem is clearly defined, there is always a solution.
The continental plate that sank to the Seabed is at a depth of 2,300 meters, which is beyond the maximum diving depth of the "Submersible Ship".
But...
Let's deal with this "Heavenly Dao Strange" first.
The Heavenly Dao Strange and inescapable; this continent, sunk beneath the Seabed, is impossible to explore.
"The Heavenly Dao Strange's strength ranges from level 15 to Level 100..."
Chen Fan stood alone on the beach, deep in thought.
The hierarchy among Strange Entities is different from that of humans.
Human Cultivator are considered Martial King at level 10.
As for the Strange Entities, level 15 is already considered Ghost Emperor.
Even if this Heavenly Dao Strange's strength starts at the Ghost Emperor level, he doesn't even know how powerful the Heavenly Dao Strange below is.
Junior level.
He guessed that the level was probably not high. After all, only this broken piece of land remained of the Eyi Continent. Even if there was some luck left, there wasn't much. The area that could come to absorb the luck of the Eyi Continent was probably driven out by other, more powerful Heavenly Dao Strange.
However, it's still good to know the specific level.
He has a way.
In the blink of an eye.
A Level-Ten Eerie Fire was placed on the "beach," and then a level 10 Watchtower rose out of thin air.
Watchtower.
It was one of the 34 Max-Level Building in the Mortal Domain that reached the maximum level after the great war ended.
Building Name: Watchtower
Building grade: White.
Building Level: 20.
"Architectural Effect": Provides an additional 10,000 meters of field of view.
"Level-10 Max-Level Effect": "Beacon Towers in Sight of One Another": When the movement of Strange Entities appears within the provided additional field of vision, an early warning will be issued in a timely manner.
"Level-20 Max-Level Effect": "Know Yourself and Your Enemy": Can detect the level and approximate health status of all Strange Entities within the additional field of vision.
"Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect": "Reveal the Hidden": Can detect invisible, hidden in the void, or unformed Strange Entities that are not visible within an additional field of vision.
Soon--
The Watchtower beeped.
A panel appeared on the Endless Night Lord Panel Depths of the Soul.
"An unknown Giant Strange Entity has been detected at a depth of 2300 meters northeast of the Seabed, 4.7 kilometers from the continental plate."
"Level 19."
"Life status: intact."
"Level 19 Heavenly Dao Strange..."
Chen Fan murmured to himself, now he knew what to do. He would deal with this "Heavenly Dao Strange" first, whether for exploring the Seabed continent or for the safety of the New Continent.
The "Eyi Continent" is not far from the "New Continent".
This guy has absorbed all the luck of the Eyi Continent; he might just run off to the New Continent.
This unstable factor.
It must be eradicated immediately.
Immediately afterwards.
A Flying Boat docked in front of him. The Flying Boat did not come with Cannon Tower, but had 17 notches, which could be customized to create Cannon Tower.
Then he quietly built a 10-meter-wide, Level-10 City Wall on the spot.
They began to forge the "Black Tortoise Cannon," "Vermilion Bird Cannon," "Azure Dragon Cannon," and "White Tiger Cannon" one by one. These Four Divine Cannons could only be placed on Level-10 City Wall.
Both are level 10.
The Four Divine Cannons have not been upgraded.
He looked at the upgrade requirements one by one. The upgrade requirements for three cannons, besides the Eerie Stone, were a handful of Soil from other continents. The other cannon, the "Black Tortoise Cannon," required consuming a certain amount of any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Both are easy to obtain.
After consuming a total of 80 million Eerie Stone and 107 Monkey-Head Fruit, these four Divine Cannons were all upgraded to level 20, which is currently the maximum level that can be reached in the Mortal Domain.
The four Divine Cannons all have the same Max-Level Effect after being upgraded to level 20.
"Level-20 Max-Level Effect": One of the Four Divine Cannons, it can simultaneously create four Divine Cannons, which can be fused into the Heavenly Dao Cannon.
The next moment--
The four Divine Cannon began to merge.
It slowly took shape into a level 20 Heavenly Dao Cannon, becoming much smaller in size, with a more refined Cannon Tower base, and an overall Silver-White.
It's not even as big as the "Godslayer Cannon".
It looks like a child's toy.
Chen Fan transplanted the level 20 "Heavenly Dao Cannon" into a gap at the bottom of the Flying Boat that was docked in front of him.
That completed the task.
Level 10 Heavenly Dao Cannon.
Not enough.
After all, it's a level 19 Heavenly Dao Strange, so big that even a level 10 Heavenly Dao Cannon might not be enough.
If it cannot be killed in one blow, allowing it to escape or go berserk would be very detrimental to the Mortal Domain.
Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon.
This is the most powerful Defensive Structure that the Mortal Domain can currently offer!
There is none other than that.
The Heavenly Dao Cannon cannot be directly upgraded from level 10 to level 20. Instead, it requires the fusion of four level 20 Divine Cannon.
He gazed at the Endless Night Lord Panel Depths of the Soul.
Building Name: Heavenly Dao Cannon
Building grade: Purple Grade.
Building Level: 20.
"Architectural Effect": Defensive Structure.
Level-10 Max-Level Effect: "All Things Are Straw Dogs": Heaven and Earth Share Longevity.
"Level-20 Max-Level Effect": "Nine-Nine Returns to One": Heaven and Earth Mourn.
"Heaven and Earth Mourn."
Chen Fan frowned slightly. The description of the Heavenly Dao Cannon's Max-Level Effect was always a bit vague, and he couldn't understand what it meant, but if nothing unexpected happened, it should also be an effect that increases power.
The Heavenly Dao Cannon has never had the "Heavenly Blessing" effect.
He pulled a Heavenly Dao Stone from his pocket and threw it.
"You used the Heavenly Dao Stone on the Heavenly Dao Cannon and gained three Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect. Please choose one within one hundred breaths."
"A building can only have one Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect."
"1: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Halved Consumption): The cost of all Heavenly Dao Cannon attacks Halved Consumption."
"2: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Absolute Death): Those killed by the Heavenly Dao Cannon will Absolute Death and cannot be resurrected by any means."
"3: Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect (Unity of Heaven and Humanity): Sacrifice one Night Watcher to activate the Heavenly Dao Cannon. Cost remains the same, but power is doubled."
Chen Fan frowned slightly; none of the three Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect were particularly effective.
The third one is definitely not being considered.
He did not want to acquire combat power in this way.
At least not now.
The second one overlaps somewhat with the "Rebirth Tower" effect, but its range is much greater than that of the Rebirth Tower.
After a moment's thought...
He chose the first one because it was more adaptable. In any case, the Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, which reduces consumption, will never be outdated, you can never have too much, and it will never go wrong. If there is no better option, he can just choose it blindly.
After completing this series of tasks.
A level 20 Heavenly Dao Cannon has been installed on the Flying Boat in front of us.
Chen Fan let out a long breath, looked at the Middle-Aged Man standing in front of him awaiting orders, and smiled, "Don't be nervous, what's your name?"
"Report to the city lord."
The Middle-Aged Man, somewhat nervous and apprehensive, said, "My name is King Ke. I belong to the Mortal Domain Commerce Pavilion and serve as the captain of Flying Boat Captain No. 327."
"Good."
Chen Fan nodded slightly and pointed to the Logistics Pavilion Member had already boarded the Flying Boat and begun their work not far away. "You need to remember what I'm about to say. You need to take the Flying Boat to the airspace above the 'Heavenly Dao Cannon' in the deep sea, and then activate the Heavenly Dao Cannon to Slaying it at the Seabed."
"The weapon carried on the No. 327 Flying Boat is Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon, the most powerful weapon in the Mortal Domain, bar none."
"This was originally installed on the Tenth-Level Defense Line."
"The recoil is too great for any Flying Boat to withstand; the moment the Heavenly Dao Cannon is activated, both the Heavenly Dao Cannon and the Flying Boat will be shattered."
"I set a three-breath delay for the Heavenly Dao Cannon."
"Once you confirm activation, the Heavenly Dao Cannon will activate after a three-breath delay. The Logistics Pavilion Member have already set up Teleportation Formation on your Flying Boat's deck. You must quickly pass through the Teleportation Formation within these three breaths to return to the Danyi Continent."
"That's it."
"The task was successfully completed. Are there any other objections?"
"There is none left."
The Middle-Aged Man named King Ke, with a hint of fanaticism in his eyes and bulging veins on his neck, roared, "Mission accomplished!"
A level 20 Heavenly Dao Cannon in the Mortal Domain...
Prior to this, there hadn't even been a test explosion. The first time it was put into actual combat, Slaying a Greater Wraith, was initiated by Boat Captain King Ke himself. This honor was extremely precious to him!
"Then let's go and make preparations."
Chen Fan laughed and patted King Ke on the shoulder, "Go ahead."
He came specifically to see King Ke.
He was very satisfied with King Ke's performance when he came into contact with the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu. He was loyal enough to the Mortal Domain. Such a person should be promoted when the opportunity arises. That's why he specifically assigned this task to King Ke to King Ke's resume.
He was trying to fit the Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon into the Flying Boat.
The Endless Night Lord Panel Depths of the Soul was flashing red continuously.
Warning! Warning!
"The power of the Heavenly Dao Cannon far exceeds the limits that the Flying Boat can withstand; once activated, the ship will be destroyed and everyone on board will perish."
Warning! Warning!
This means that the Heavenly Dao Cannon positioned on the defensive line can be fired multiple times, while the Heavenly Dao Cannons positioned on the Flying Boat...
The cannon became a disposable Cannon Tower, but even so, he still had to use it.
This Heavenly Dao Strange must die.
Whether for the present or for the future.
Soon--
On the beach of the Eyi Continent, Mortal Domain Member began to move.
At the same time, a structure connected to the Warehouse, known as "Fushi Tangbi," was flashing a faint White Light, urging it to its full potential.
Moving, it sucks up the fallen items the moment "Heavenly Dao Strange" dies.
To avoid being swept away by deep- Seabed currents and ending up somewhere unknown.
Perhaps the Mortal Domain's actions were a bit too drastic.
Unable to contain his curiosity, the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu found the Crippled Monkey and tentatively asked, "Is there some big movement taking place in the Mortal Domain?"
Not daring to disturb Lu Fan, he had no choice but to ask the Crippled Monkey.
"Oh."
The Crippled Monkey turned to look at the towering, yet still incredibly tall, Ghost Emperor beside him, who was bending over as much as he could, and casually remarked, "There's one in the sea..."
Strange Entities is hindering the Mortal Domain's exploration of the Seabed; the Mortal Domain is preparing to Eradication this Strange Entities.
"Clear."
The Weird Emperor Jiu Wu nodded solemnly. "Such ungrateful Strange Entities should indeed be Eradication."
"Then you all go ahead with your work, I'm going back to the center of the island to rest."
"Don't rest."
Chen Fan, who happened to be passing by in Flying Boat, lowered the Flying Boat and waved, "Let's go take a look together."
"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer."
With Weird Emperor Jiu Wu followed Chen Fan eagerly toward the shore.
Soon--
Flying Boat No. 372 slowly ascended into the air amidst great anticipation, eventually hovering 4.7 kilometers above the continental plate.
Standing on the deck, King Ke held Message Talisman and nervously checked the information.
"This is Captain Wang Ke of the 372nd Flying Ship of the Mortal Realm Merchant Pavilion, conducting the first debugging and verification."
He looked down at the Ghosthide Map in his hand.
"Correct position."
He then went to the Dan cabin, opened a cover at the bottom, looked at the base of the Heavenly Dao Cannon Tower, and turned a knob to its minimum. "The beam has been reduced to its minimum."
We went back to the deck.
The Teleportation Formation is functioning normally.
After a series of adjustments, King Ke took a deep breath. "Adjustments complete. Requesting launch command!"
Shore.
Standing on the deck of the Flying Boat, Chen Fan listened to the reports coming through the Message Talisman and said softly, "Begin preparations."
"Three, two, one..."
"Emission!"
The next moment--
First, a faint White Light was seen flashing from the distant Flying Boat.
Immediately afterwards.
A blinding and intense White Light suddenly appeared on the horizon.
The Heaven and Earth seemed to freeze in an instant.
There was no sound.
All sounds vanished, an absolute silence as if entering a cosmic vacuum. A dark blue Golden Light Pillar, about 1,000 meters in diameter, pierced the Sea in an absolutely straight trajectory.
The seawater touched by the Golden Light Pillar evaporated instantly.
This Golden Light Pillar of light, containing terrifying energy, was reaching a Seabed of 2,300 meters at an extremely alarming speed, instantly plunging into the body of the enormous "Heavenly Dao Strange".
The Heavenly Dao Strange is as elusive as the sun, radiating blinding light from the Seabed.
But at this moment.
It saw the real sun.
Almost instantly.
Without the slightest resistance or struggle, the Heavenly Dao Strange began to disintegrate rapidly, and the energy of the Golden Light Pillar Heavenly Dao Strange instantly within its body.
Seabed.
A blazing sun, fifty miles in diameter, was born.
Immediately afterwards--
The seawater began to surge violently, and the seawater temperature began to rise rapidly. Intense light burst forth from the Seabed, illuminating the eastern sky above the "Eyi Continent." The shockwave propagated rapidly through the seawater in solid form.
Wherever they went.
The Seabed mountain range was flattened.
The sector was stirred up.
After Incense Stick.
The aftershocks are gradually subsiding.
A massive, continuously rotating whirlpool, spanning tens of miles in diameter, appeared on the sea surface—a truly awe-inspiring sight rarely seen.
Standing on the Flying Boat, Chen Fan remained expressionless as he looked at the scene before him and calmly said in a low voice.
"The Mortal Domain cherishes Peace."
"But some disobedient beings can only be allowed to rest in peace forever."
Standing aside.
The Weird Emperor Jiu Wu, whose head was level with the Flying Boat, was now trembling uncontrollably, his eyes filled with...
It was a fear so intense it was tangible.
"..."
Chen Fan glanced at the expression on the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
The primary objective was to Eradication the doctrine of the Heavenly Dao.
But making an example of Monkey One and giving the Jiu Wu a warning is also a convenient thing to do, and it seems to be working quite well so far.
Both worked quite well.
