At this very moment, despite facing a life-or-death crisis, Hai Wei'er felt as if nothing was frightening anymore when Qi Ling hugged her. This person must have a way to solve the problem.
"Just stay by my side and don't do anything," Qi Ling said. "Everything will be fine, don't worry."
Then, Qi Ling slowly took out the Xuanyuan Sword from her Infinite Space. Although she couldn't use her Martial Soul, Qi Ling still had other reliance, such as sword skills.
Ordinary physical attacks are indeed ineffective against these Ghost Piranha, but the Xuanyuan Sword in Qi Ling's hand is no ordinary sword. It is one of the highest-level divine artifacts, and the power it contains is something that the Ghost Piranha cannot be immune to.
As the Xuanyuan Sword was drawn, the Xuanyuan Sword Realm unfolded. Facing tens of thousands of Ghost Piranha, Qi Ling felt no fear whatsoever; in fact, she felt a little excited.
But these Ghost Piranha don't care how powerful you are. In their eyes, there are only two kinds of things in this world: things that can be eaten and things that can't be bitten.
Suddenly, all the Ghost Piranha sprang into action and charged towards Qi Ling! Even tens of thousands of carp charging together would be a spectacular sight, let alone tens of thousands of Ghost Piranha —it was a scene straight out of the apocalypse.
However, in Hai Wei'er's eyes, she couldn't see the existence of those terrifying piranhas at all. At this moment, all she could see was that figure holding a sword in one hand, blocking her way.
As the Ghost Piranha charged forward, the Xuanyuan Sword Realm had already encompassed them all. Then, facing tens of thousands of Ghost Piranha, Qi Ling swung his sword, unleashing countless sword lights with a single move!
Even with Qi Ling's current strength, she still couldn't fully unleash the power of the " One Hundred and Eight Thousand Swords " move, but even so, it was enough to deal with these 10,000 Ghost Piranha.
The scene was so spectacular that it was beyond compare; at least, Hai Wei'er was certain she would never forget it for the rest of her life.
Before Qi Ling stood countless Ghost Piranha, but Qi Ling, wielding his sword in one hand, casually swung it, and instantly countless sword lights engulfed the Ghost Piranha, preventing a single fish from charging forward.
This technique, beyond Hai Wei'er's comprehension, could only be considered a God Skill by her! So when Qi Ling sheathed the Xuanyuan Sword and smiled at Hai Wei'er, Hai Wei'er exclaimed in shock, " Qi Ling, you, are you really a god?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm much stronger than a god," Qi Ling laughed.
After that, the two continued downwards. Qi Ling could sense that they were not far from the Heart of the Ocean and should arrive soon.
Finally, when the two reached the seabed again, they breathed a sigh of relief, which at least meant that they were close to finding the Heart of the Ocean.
"Ah! Qi Ling, look! There it is! Right there!" Hai Wei'er said, pointing in a direction for Qi Ling. Sure enough, there was a jeweled platform with a box on it, which should contain the Heart of the Ocean.
Seeing her target finally appear, Hai Wei'er was naturally extremely excited and couldn't wait to swim towards the jewelry platform.
But at that moment, the seabed suddenly shook violently! Under the impact of the tremors, Hai Wei'er could barely maintain her balance and had to stop.
Then, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded: a gigantic stone man slowly rose from the seabed and stood majestically before the two.
This stone figure is over a hundred meters tall, made entirely of stone, and covered with seaweed and coral. It appears to have existed for a very long time.
It seems that this stone giant is the final obstacle guarding the Heart of the Heart of the Ocean. The fact that it's placed last clearly means this guy is no pushover.
Suddenly, two red dots appeared on the stone giant's head, seemingly like eyes. After seeing the situation clearly, the stone giant immediately stretched out its huge palm and slapped it down at Hai Wei'er.
"Watch out!" Qi Ling rushed forward and used the Xuanyuan Sword to block the stone giant's attack, rescuing Hai Wei'er from its grasp! Although its body was enormous, its movements were incredibly agile and fast, as if it were not affected by any resistance at all.
Not only that, Qi Ling's expression changed after receiving the stone giant's attack. Even though she lived in the ocean, she was very confident in her strength, but this guy was actually able to hold his own against her, which was simply astonishing.
After placing Hai Wei'er in a safe place, Qi Ling immediately took up the Xuanyuan Sword and engaged the stone giant in battle. She then discovered that the stone giant was made of some unknown material and was incredibly hard! Even with the power of the Xuanyuan Sword, she could only make shallow cuts and could not cause any effective damage.
Moreover, after Qi Ling used her sword techniques to inflict significant damage on the stone giant, the missing parts of the giant were gradually filled with countless fragments of stone, and it quickly recovered to its original state.
This is truly Undying Body! No matter how severe the injury, it can heal itself, which is utterly despair-inducing.
After unleashing the " One Hundred and Eight Thousand Swords " move once more, although the stone giant was covered in wounds that even affected its movement, the countless pebbles on the seabed quickly began to repair its body. It seemed that it wouldn't be long before it could rejoin the battle.
If this continues, it will never end. Qi Ling doesn't know how this thing works. What if its energy is inexhaustible? Would she have to fight it for the rest of her life?
" Wei'er, I'll hold it off here. You hurry and get the Heart of the Ocean!" Qi Ling said to Hai Wei'er.
Now, the only obstacle standing between the two and the Heart of the Ocean is this stone giant. Since they can't deal with this guy for the time being, why not just let Hai Wei'er go and get the Heart of the Ocean?
Once they obtain the artifact, the Heart of the Ocean, the two can immediately shake off the stone giant and leave this place. No matter how fast it is, Qi Ling is confident that she will not be caught by it.
Therefore, the best solution now is for Qi Ling to hold off the stone giant, allowing Hai Wei'er to take the Heart of the Ocean. Hai Wei'er clearly thought of this as well, and immediately swam quickly past the stone giant toward the Heart of the Ocean.
The stone giant realized Hai Wei'er's intention and immediately tried to stop her, but Qi Ling blocked his way with a sword, and his arm fell limp again.
"Excuse me, this road is blocked." Qi Ling stood between the stone giant and Hai Wei'er, smiling as she said, "This time, it's my turn to block your way."
