In the vast sea, the waves were rippling.
In the deeper parts of the sea, the tsunamis were as violent as ever.
In the middle of the tsunami, something strange was happening.
A few hundred meters of water had formed a huge whirlpool, and the surrounding waves were caused by this whirlpool.
This whirlpool was spinning faster and faster, and it had a strong suction force, as if it was going to swallow the heavens.
At the same time, a strong tornado was blowing above the whirlpool, as if it was going to turn the entire place upside down.
In such a situation, even a Mystic Thearch would feel his scalp go numb.
This strange phenomenon was only caused by the tsunami, and no one would think about it in any other way.
In fact, in the bottom of the sea, a thousand meters below the whirlpool, there was a treasure being born.
At the bottom of the sea, there were all kinds of water-elemental spirit herbs. Third-level and fourth-level spirit herbs could be seen everywhere, and occasionally, some fifth-level and even sixth-level spirit herbs could be seen.
The resources at the bottom of the sea were abundant, and this was a fact that everyone knew. But those who could excavate these resources were few and far between.
After all, the dangers at the bottom of the sea were much more terrifying than those in the mountains.
At the very center of the vortex, there were no living creatures or spirit herbs around, only bare mud and stones. These mud and stones did not seem to be as simple as they seemed to be. Some of the spots on the mud and stones were emitting a little silver light.
These mud and rocks seemed to form a circle, surrounding an area of more than ten meters, as if they were protecting something.
In this area of more than ten meters, there was a figure in the center, and this person was actually Luo Meiying, whom Ling Xiao was looking for.
At this time, she was still in a state of enlightenment, and the spiraling water pillars were spinning around her like water dragons, looking very magical.
Not far from her was a stalk of spirit herb. It was shaped like a vine, its thin stems constantly intersecting and twisting together, forming a spiral shape that spread out in all directions. This stalk of spirit herb was not green or blue like ordinary water attribute spirit herbs, but silver. Whether it was the stems, leaves, roots … Every part of it was silver, so silver that it was dazzling to the eyes.
This spirit herb seemed to be full of spirituality. Its thin stems were constantly spinning, similar to the tsunami whirlpool above the sea. It was as if its spinning appearance was a miniature version of that whirlpool.
It was surrounded by extremely dense water-attributed spiritual energy. This water-attributed spiritual energy constantly seeped into its stem and filled its energy, allowing it to grow in all directions.
Luo Meiying was not far from this spirit herb, and the vines that spread out seemed to surround Luo Meiying in the middle.
If one took a closer look, these vines seemed to want to wrap around Luo Meiying, but they were pushed away by the spiraling water columns around her, preventing these vines from getting close to her body.
Luo Meiying didn't seem to be aware of her own situation. Her Sea of Consciousness had undergone an astonishing change.
His Knowledge Sea gradually formed a Spiritual World. The lower layer was Spiritual Liquid, while the upper layer was World Energy.
The Spiritual Realm was the unique mark of becoming a Mystic Thearch.
Luo Meiying actually broke through to the Heaven Venerable Realm at this moment and became a Mystic Thearch.
This was simply too inconceivable!
When she was saved by Ling Xiao using the Demon Son's Heart, her strength had directly soared to the peak-stage Heaven Venerable Realm. It was just that she didn't realize the World Energy, and so she couldn't unleash the power of this energy.
Now that she had realized the World Energy, her strength rose once again. It was as if all the energy that had been stored in her body had exploded at this moment. She had directly broken through the bottleneck of the peak-stage Heaven Venerable Realm and reached the Mystic Thearch Realm. Her Sea of Consciousness had also formed a Spiritual World.
The main reason why she could become a Mystic Thearch so smoothly was because the excess energy from the Demon Son's Heart had exploded once again after she realized the World Energy. Furthermore, the water-attributed spirit energy here was extremely dense, which was very compatible with her element. It created the most advantageous space for her.
The World Energy that formed in her Spiritual World was actually the same power as this tsunami.
The sea waves surged, the sea winds howled, the whirlpool spun rapidly, and the suction force surged!
Luo Meiying felt as if she had already grasped this power of heaven's might. She could use this power at any time and place.
At this time, Ling Xiao had already approached the whirlpool on Dragon Lady's back.
"Dragon Lady, what's in front?" Ling Xiao muttered as he looked at the churning seawater in front of him.
The blue True Dragon said, "I don't know what it is either. I have a feeling that the things over there should be delicious."
"Delicious?" Ling Xiao's expression darkened.
He had thought that the Dragon Lady had made some shocking discovery, but he did not expect it to be food. This made him extremely speechless. He was currently anxious to find Luo Meiying's whereabouts.
"I also sense the aura of a human over there. It should be the person boss is looking for. It has the same scent as yours!" The blue True Dragon replied.
When Ling Xiao heard this, he was overjoyed. "You … Are you sure you have my scent?"
If Luo Meiying stayed with him, she would definitely have some of his scent, and it was not surprising that the blue True Dragon could sense it.
"Yes!" The blue True Dragon replied.
"That's great, Mei Ying should be fine!" Ling Xiao exclaimed.
"Boss, sit tight. I'm going in!"
The blue True Dragon said as it faced the violent whirlpool in front of it. Then, it brought Ling Xiao and dove in.
From the looks of it, it didn't seem to be afraid that the whirlpool would harm it at all.
Bang!
The huge dragon's body charged straight into the whirlpool. The powerful suction force seemed to have been forcefully stopped at this moment. It was only after the dragon's body had entered that it began to spin again.
After entering the center of the whirlpool, Ling Xiao was dazzled by the water waves that kept spinning around him.
However, he still saw Luo Meiying, who was wrapped in the center of the whirlpool.
He was just about to call out when he realized that her current state was strange.
"He actually broke through to the Mystic Emperor. This speed is too fast!" Ling Xiao could not help but exclaim.
Of course, Ling Xiao knew what Luo Meiying's strength was. He did not expect that she would suddenly break through to the Mystic Thearch Realm in just a few hours. How could he not be surprised?
The silver vines around Luo Meiying seemed to have sensed something. They quickly retracted their stems, as if they were afraid of being discovered by someone.
As it retracted, the whirlpool actually slowed down and gradually stopped.
"What is this?" Ling Xiao immediately noticed the silver spirit herb.
The blue True Dragon did not wait for Ling Xiao's orders and scurried towards the silver spirit herb. It seemed as if it could not wait to devour the silver spirit herb.
The silver spirit herb actually seemed to have a spirit of its own as it immediately fled into the distance!
Ling Xiao immediately jumped down from its body. He had to stay by Luo Meiying's side and protect her.
"What exactly is this thing that actually made the Dragon Lady so agitated?!" Ling Xiao stood not far from Luo Meiying and searched for information related to the silver spirit herb in his mind.
All of a sudden, Ling Xiao exclaimed, "Could it be … a tier-eight mid-tier Silver Spiral Sea Vine?"
He paused for a moment and said with certainty, "Yes, it can't be wrong. Otherwise, why would this whirlpool appear here? No wonder the Dragon Lady said that it was delicious. So it was actually such a good thing!"
The Silver Spiral Sea Vine was a type of water-attribute supreme-grade spirit herb. To water-attribute martial artists, it was a cardinal treasure. Not only could it improve one's physique and increase one's strength, but it also had the greatest benefit of condensing a spiral attack force and a spiral sucking force, which would greatly increase one's combat strength!
Another point was that it could be nurtured as an attack-type strange treasure.
There was nothing in this world that didn't have it.
This Silver Spiral Sea Vine was different from ordinary spirit herbs. It could keep growing and was similar to the Immortal Tree in Ling Xiao's sea of consciousness. It had a soul and consciousness. If it was subdued and nurtured, it could absolutely become a great help to human martial artists.
Because of its existence, fighting in places with water sources could directly cause natural disasters such as tsunamis.
From this, it could be seen how precious this Silver Spiral Sea Vine was. It was a cardinal treasure that was hard to obtain even with ten thousand crystals. Even saints would want to fight over it when they saw it.
Ling Xiao also didn't expect that he would encounter such a spiritual object not long after arriving at this sea region. It really made him pleasantly surprised.
However, now that the Dragon Lady chased after it and wanted to devour it, wouldn't it be a waste of this great sacred object?
"What a pity. If we could catch it and let Meiying possess it, how great would that be!" Ling Xiao sighed.
Luo Meiying was a water-attribute martial artist. If she could obtain this Silver Spiral Sea Vine, it would undoubtedly be like adding wings to a tiger.
If the blue True Dragon chased after it and devoured it, could it still escape?
Ling Xiao shook his head and cast his gaze on Luo Meiying.
It could be seen that her aura was already getting stronger and stronger. Countless spiral water columns churned continuously, just like water dragons attacking, stirring up this radius of a thousand meters.
Ling Xiao activated the Glazed Dragon Scale Battle Armor and also had the Water Repelling Pearl in his bosom, blocking the water columns that attacked over.
The seawater rippled endlessly. Vision was also blocked by this turbid seawater until it could not see clearly.
Ling Xiao only felt that Luo Meiying's aura gradually stabilized. She should be continuously practicing her World Power right now.
At this time, the blue True Dragon returned again.
Ling Xiao asked anxiously, "You ate that Silver Spiral Sea Vine?"
"It hid itself. I couldn't find it!" the blue True Dragon said.
Ling Xiao was depressed all of a sudden. The blue True Dragon was a middle-rank Tier 8 divine beast. It actually could not catch that Silver Spiral Sea Vine. It could be imagined how cunning this spirit grass was.
As long as it drilled into that seabed mud, wanting to find it again was really not easy.
Bang!
At this time, this part of the seawater gave off a startling explosion sound.
This part of the seawater surged intensely once again.
Following this explosion sound, Ling Xiao already sensed that Luo Meiying was about to wake up.
The seawater returned to tranquility. Luo Meiying's figure stood gracefully. Her beautiful eyes revolved with lustrous light as she looked at Ling Xiao. The excited expression was hard to conceal.
"Xiao, I comprehended World Power!" Luo Meiying pounced towards Ling Xiao's bosom and exclaimed.
