The Giant Beast Magic City at the Bottom of the Sea
Published on:
From the sky, the vast Yinsai Kingdom occupied merely a corner of the continent.
Even the People of the Abyss only held a stretch of sea near the continent.
From the Bottomless Abyss to the Dark Swamp was the entirety of the known world, the known circle.
Beyond the circle lay a greater unknown.
The other side of the Bottomless Abyss, beyond the known circle.
On the night sea, waves rolled rhythmically, their light dim and ethereal.
Suddenly, a giant moon appeared in the sky, illuminating the entire sea surface and dyeing it silver.
Beneath God's moon, a tiny shadow emerged with the moon, gradually becoming more apparent.
As if descending from the moon itself.
It was a hot air balloon.
Standing in the basket was a mysterious figure in a white robe, and a girl wearing a dress. The girl stood on tiptoe, peering down at the sea below.
Yin Shen looked back at the divine moon in the sky. "This is rather conspicuous," he remarked.
Having such a prominent "light bulb" above their heads wherever they went was tantamount to announcing to everyone that their God had once again descended to the mortal realm.
But there was no helping it.
For only when the moon was present could his physical form remain stable.
To be precise, the moon composed of God's Grace Stone was the core that carried his consciousness projection.
"We should reduce the brightness," Yin Shen said.
The divine moon immediately obeyed, retracting its radiance, becoming increasingly transparent and dim, like a switched-off light bulb.
Finally, this second moon rose higher and higher, gradually hiding itself above the clouds and disappearing from view.
As long as the power of the divine moon wasn't activated, its existence was hardly noticeable from the ground.
The hot air balloon flew farther and farther, descending above the Bottomless Abyss.
Yin Shen held Shelly's hand as they opened the side door and stepped out, standing on the sea surface. "Since we're here, let's go see the Fusion Monsters," he suggested.
The two sank directly into the depths of the sea, bubbles constantly brushing past them, endless darkness beginning to engulf them.
One thousand meters.
Two thousand meters.
Three, four thousand...
It seemed as if they would continue sinking like this, descending into hell.
Finally, the two reached their destination.
Although the People of the Abyss often came to the Bottomless Abyss to mine metals and search for various rare items, they mostly just circled the upper layers, never venturing into such depths.
Probably no one could have imagined.
At the very bottom of the Bottomless Abyss was a vast underwater city.
The city was built with giant stones, like an inverted dome on the sea floor, albeit with an open skylight.
Around the underwater giant stood bizarre chimneys, constantly emitting what looked like black smoke but was actually liquid.
Yin Shen and Shelly landed in front of the , step by step climbing to the highest point of the giant .
"Look," Yin Shen said. "This is their place of slumber."
"Yinsai no longer needs them, and this place is perfect for their quiet, eternal sleep."
Looking down from the top of the , seven mountain-like monsters were curled up here, their rhythmic pulses audible.
Shelly's approach gradually awakened the dormant giants.
"Gururu!" The monsters rumbled.
The seven Fusion Monsters awoke, prostrating themselves before the King of Beasts.
Deep, muffled roars emanated from within their bodies, the sound vibrating the seawater and stirring up waves.
Yin Shen looked down from above, seeing a brilliantly shining eyeball guarded at the center of the seven monsters.
The Eye of Mutation.
This was the strange, mutated power born from the Samo family's secret art of immortality.
Even the Desert Worm eventually collapsed due to mutation, demonstrating the power of this force.
Yin Shen had found a way to preserve this strange power of mutated light, creating an Eye of Mutation.
However, due to the conflict between Wisdom Ability and Life Ability, this Eye of Mutation couldn't maintain itself for long, collapsing after a short time.
The Fusion Monsters needed to recreate it time and time again.
Its purpose was evident.
The light covered the entire , accelerating the reincarnation and mutation of the Fusion Monsters.
But at the same time, it caused some tiny organisms in the seawater to mutate.
Although most of these mutated life forms couldn't leave this underwater magic city before they were born, either collapsing due to their distorted life forms or dying from the pressure of the deep sea.
However, occasionally, some life forms with stable structures would leave this place and enter the vast ocean.
Even then, they might not necessarily survive the natural selection of nature.
The final survivors were extremely rare.
But over time, they should bring some surprises to the ocean and the world.
Yin Shen nodded. "I didn't expect it to have the effect of promoting life evolution."
This wasn't Yin Shen's original intention.
Yin Shen had only placed the giants here, letting them undergo reincarnation after reincarnation, continuously cultivating the mythical blood within them to its maximum.
At the same time, waiting for the day when Life Ability would transform.
"Gururu!" A large cluster of bubbles burst from Shelly's mouth.
Yin Shen patted Shelly's head. "Don't rush!" he said gently. "Like me, you possess endless life. The day will come eventually."
Shelly blew another mouthful of bubbles. "Gururu."
Yin Shen looked at Shelly. After so many years, although sometimes she seemed to have flashes of insight,
She was still far from being a truly intelligent life form.
Most of the time, she was more like a bubble-blowing fish that Yin Shen kept in an aquarium.
"Let's look around some more!" Yin Shen suggested. "If we're lucky, we might find a way for Life Ability to reach the second level. Once you become more powerful, you might gain wisdom."
The second-level transformation of Wisdom Ability occurred because the mythical blood fused with the pollen of the Sun Cup Flower, completing the missing part of the bloodline.
Thus, from illusory mental power, it interfered with reality to become spiritual power.
Dream Ability, by borrowing the eggshell of the Trilobite Man, allowed its dreams to descend into reality.
As for Life Ability, it had yet to find its missing part—
At the border of the Abyss Kingdom.
Deep Sea Knight Elena led a group of soldiers near the Bottomless Abyss underwater, preparing to mine materials for creating Abyssal Magic Gold once again.
Suddenly, silver light surged on the sea surface above their heads.
Silver waves rolled, light refracting into the depths.
"What's happening?" Elena wondered aloud.
She had grown younger, returning to her youthful appearance.
Recently, she had broken through to the fourth level, becoming a God's Grace Priest, the only fourth-level ability user in the Abyss Kingdom.
Elena wore a golden mask on her face, appearing majestic and mysterious.
She led her people to quickly surface. The divine moon in the sky had long disappeared, but in the distance, there was something floating on the sea surface.
It was Spirit Hila's hot air balloon.
"What is that?" Elena murmured, her voice filled with curiosity.
Everyone felt the object was strange, something they had never seen before, and obviously not a natural creation.
She led her people to swim quickly across the sea surface, like skipping stones, leaving trails of white waves.
But as she approached the hot air balloon, it was as if they passed through an illusion, unable to touch it at all.
They seemed to exist in two different worlds.
When she stopped, everything dissipated.
Elena's face showed shock. She turned to ask the other soldiers.
"Did you see that?"
"What about you?"
Everyone had seen it, but no one could be certain.
After all, even the fourth-level Elena felt she might have been seeing things.
Because everything that had happened was too bizarre.
After searching the surroundings for a long time, they still couldn't find any clues.
Elena saw that the other soldiers were somewhat panicked. Such strange occurrences at sea were truly unusual.
"There are too many bizarre things in this world," she said, trying to calm her troops. "Perhaps what we encountered today is just one of them."
Just as they were about to return, Elena noticed that a small pin holding her golden mask had fallen, floating on the water surface.
The water moved the pin, causing it to oscillate constantly.
Elena was about to use her mental power to pick it up, but suddenly stopped.
"Huh?" she exclaimed, surprised.
She found that no matter how the pin floating on the water surface oscillated, it always pointed in the same direction.
"This is strange," Elena muttered. "What could be causing this?"
She picked up the pin, cradled it in her palm, then placed it back in the water to try again.
It remained the same.
She thought to herself that perhaps this was another unknown force of nature.
Or another hidden secret of the world.
