Demon Cultivator: Heaven and earth are the cauldron, and all living beings are the medicine

Faced with Gu Ye's aggressive questioning, Ning Lu didn't say much.

Because he clearly knew that although the other party's words were harsh, they were actually all true. He was still weak, and the other party could crush him with just a slight move.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a thunderous roar erupted from the seabed. The ochre-colored formation before them abruptly dissipated, revealing a path leading to the underwater world.

"The Inkling Kingdom has deactivated the formation. The trade has begun. The road ahead is dangerous. You two stay close to me and don't wander around!"

Gu Ye turned his head to remind the two Ancient God Sect members behind him, then took a step forward. His figure shot forward like lightning, plunging towards the underwater world below.

"Elder Feng, let's go too!" He Yao said.

Ning Lu nodded silently, his figure instantly transforming into a streak of crimson, also speeding downwards.

The Inkling Kingdom had long resided in the underwater world, avoiding the world to maintain its safety and continue its legacy.

Therefore, they set up layers of calamities and a net of snares at the entrance to their kingdom, placing the safety of their kingdom first, even if it meant hindering trade routes.

The reason for doing so was simple.

The Bubble Whale only produced a few Bubble Fish every ten years. The number was small, so trades only occurred roughly every ten years.

The Bubble Fish were so expensive that ordinary people couldn't afford them. Those who could afford them were at least Nascent Soul Realm cultivators or even Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators!

People who had reached this level of cultivation could basically break through the Inkling Kingdom's net of snares. In this way, the Inkling Kingdom could maintain the safety of its own kingdom and maintain trade relations with various powerful figures.

However, the number of Bubble Fish was limited, often falling short of demand. The allocation issue could never be properly handled, and the Bubble Fish's vitality was fragile. After being born, they had to be captured immediately and stored in a space filled with spiritual energy, such as a storage bag.

Therefore, the Inkling Kingdom was only responsible for selling the Bubble Fish. Regardless of the number of people from the arriving forces, they only needed to pay 100,000 spiritual stones to go to the dungeon to witness the Bubble Whale giving birth to the Bubble Fish and personally capture them on the spot.

As for how to distribute them, the Inkling Kingdom was not responsible!

At this moment, one giant green net after another appeared before Ning Lu. His figure continuously swam through the ocean, blocking everyone's path.

"Elder Feng, these are not real nets, but rather a group of Nascent Soul-grade defensive Gu worms called Grass Rope Nets. They live in the deep sea all year round. Although the abilities of these Gu worms are only average, they should not be underestimated!"

He Yao followed closely behind Ning Lu, introducing them.

"Bamboo Intent!"

Suddenly, Gu Ye shouted loudly from the side.

Instantly, thousands of verdant bamboos descended from the sky, each containing boundless vitality and an incomparably domineering power, slamming into the Grass Rope Nets in front.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

In an instant, the Grass Rope Nets blocking the path ahead shattered one after another, unable to withstand even a single breath before a bloody path was opened!

Then, without stopping, Gu Ye continued to follow this path, rapidly diving downwards, and the other two members of the Ancient God Sect also followed closely behind.

"Is this the Intent of a Spirit Transformation cultivator? It really lives up to the saying, 'There are no weaklings above the Spirit Transformation Realm, and all below the Spirit Transformation Realm are ants!'"

Ning Lu stopped to watch, sighing repeatedly in his heart.

On the other side, Tang Chen, the elder of the Blazing Flame Sect, also displayed his methods, igniting a raging fire in his hand that never ceased. Even on the seabed, the power of the flame was not diminished, burning away the large nets in front of him.

In an instant, a crackling sound rang out, and the seemingly sturdy net was immediately pierced with one large hole after another.

"Go!"

Ning Lu left a word to He Yao beside him and immediately took a step forward, his figure like lightning, constantly shuttling downwards.

"Elder Feng doesn't need to rush. The Bubble Whale produces Bubble Fish at the same time. We don't need to compete with the other two major forces for speed. We just need to arrive at the Inkling Kingdom before the Bubble Fish are born!"

He Yao followed closely behind Ning Lu, constantly speaking.

Ning Lu only responded indifferently, his figure still not stopping for a moment.

After a while, a huge crab covered in hard carapace, with violent eyes, came into his sight, blocking the path of the two.

"This seabed world of the deep sea is really interesting! Even a mere crab has reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm!"

Ning Lu's eyes were bright, he held the golden long sword tightly in his hand, with a look of interest on his face.

"Elder Feng, leave it to me! This is a Nascent Soul-level demon beast called the Monarch Crab. It is the overlord of crabs, huge in size, and the carapace on its outer body is extremely hard. Moreover, this crab is not cheap, and it can be sold for a good price outside!"

He Yao hurriedly spoke, immediately circulating the spiritual energy in his body, just about to make a move.

However, in the next moment, Ning Lu took the lead, waving his sword forward fiercely, instantly splitting the imposing Monarch Crab into two, directly splitting it in half from the middle!

Waving his hand randomly, before He Yao could react, he grabbed the dead Monarch Crab into his bag.

He Yao was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say. Ning Lu's figure sped forward again without the slightest hesitation, and he had no choice but to follow slowly.

However, Ning Lu put the Monarch Crab into his bag not to sell it for a good price, but to put it into the Primordial Ancient Cauldron to refine it, to help his cultivation!

After all, the blood energy formed after refining a Nascent Soul demon beast is still very beneficial to the current Ning Lu.

After a long time, the two sped downwards all the way, and had already reached the end of the road, and at this time a five-colored light gate came into view.

Ning Lu looked around for a week and found that there was no other way out, so he immediately asked.

"What's going on with this light gate? Could it be that the Inkling Kingdom is in it?"

"No, no! Behind this light gate is the Mirage Illusion created by the Inkling Kingdom. Spells are forbidden in it, and it is extremely difficult to pass through, but as long as you walk out of this illusion, you can reach the Inkling Kingdom!"

He Yao explained.

"There is such an illusion? Can't any skills be used?"

Ning Lu asked vigilantly.

"Uh, in fact, this is not entirely an illusion! Many restrictions have also been set up in it, which are matched with the illusion, which leads to the prohibition of spells! However, the good fortune that cultivators integrate into themselves, the Intent of Spirit Transformation cultivators, and the effects of some special physiques can still be used!"

He Yao responded.

"Then it's fine! Let's go in now!"

Hearing this, the sense of crisis in Ning Lu's heart dissipated.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a thunderous roar came, causing the surrounding seawater to tremble violently.

Ning Lu turned his head sharply, and a huge shark came into view, its aura majestic, opening its bloody mouth and rushing towards the two.
