The Adventures Of The Young Master
Chapter 783 - A Silhouette In The Black Tidal SeaThe Black Tidal Sea was said to be uncrossable. Thus, many brave experts pushed their luck and be the first to cross it. Unfortunately, those who tried to cross the sea never came back with the exception of Han Li. Not to mention the monsters lurking here, the violent waves were also there enough to kill even a monarch.
"Rumble!" The tidal sea was very turbulent. Usually, it's calm yet scary. But this time, it's violent and frightening. It kept banging against the thick wall barrier which protected the Nine Heavens from its atrocities.
Jin Rou walked casually despite the aggressive nature of the tidal sea. He knew the mysteries of this place like the back of his hand so there's no issue in strolling like this. Furthermore, he had experienced this for so many times so it's much easier to do.
Just like the name it suggested, the sea water was black. Not just that, the water was thick like foreign substances. He kept on bypassing the tidal sea with ease for thirty minutes until he reached a certain place.
This particular part of the sea was filled with human bones. They were floating above the water making the scene difficult to take. Not just that, there were also traces of blood on the bones meaning that some of this were fresh.
Jin Rou shook his head and said, "Fools. While the valley is protecting you from harm, you delivered yourselves to your death's door."
The bones were filled with majestic dao, meaning it came from the imperial lords and even monarchs. And judging by the pattern of the bones, Jin Rou had already guessed who they were but didn't say a thing again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe proceeded to walk over this pile of bones as if they were mere stones. This place could only be located by chance. After walking further, thick fog appeared and disappeared right after. Then, the place changed. It was no longer the sea but in the depths of it.
If it was a normal person, they would drown and die. There was a foreign substance in the water which was lethal and dangerous to living things. However, Jin Rou was an exception. Also, he didn't have difficulty breathing under water.
"Clang!" Then moving chains could be heard. The movements of the chains sounded ominous.
"You still dare to appear in front of me, you damned humans?" An ancient voice sounded. His voice was filled with anger and resentment towards the receiver of the words.
Only a silhouette could be seen, but the body of the one binded in chain was a gigantic being. Merely, it was only in a sitting position so the appearance didn't look it's big enough.
"It looks like you have grown older. You no longer recognize your old friend?" Jin Rou chuckled, "Too bad."
The silhouette's eyes turned sharp. The myriad worlds became resplendent in its gaze as it said, "You bastard. You're still alive?"
"Of course. As you can see, I'm perfectly healthy." Jin Rou smirked, "How is it living here? If my guess is right, you are stuck here for, hmm, 125 billion years? Surely, your back might be hurting now."
"Shut up and leave. I have nothing to say to you." The silhouette sneered. His voice was cold enough to freeze realms.
"Why so cold? It's been a while since we met so at least entertain me." Jin Rou said, "Besides I have a news for you."
"I'm not interested. So scram." The silhouette didn't back down.
"Oh really? You aren't interested in a direct descendant of Blackmauve family?" Jin Rou's smile was wide. For sure, it would earn a reaction from this existence.
Sure enough. The silhouette's eyes turned on Jin Rou and looked at him, "What did you say?"
"The Blackmauve family of a very distant past, has a direct descendant who's still alive." Jin Rou smiled, "And currently, she's under a deal with me."
"Do you know how dangerous you're doing right now? You're playing with fire." The silhouette deeply said. It knew the family for a certain period of time. As a matter of fact, it personally saw the brilliance of the Blackmauve back in the day.
The Blackmauve was known to be a dangerous family that ruled several eras and opened a few epochs themselves. Although there was no confirmation that some descendants were still alive, there were also no confirmation that they had died eventually.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I know. But the one with me is the spoiled child of the family, so I have a good bargain in case I meet them." Jin Rou chuckled. Of all people, he was the most aware of the family's capabilities despite not seeing them in person.
"Spoiled child? You mean Sylvianna?" The silhouette revealed a surprised expression.
"Bingo." Jin Rou made himself comfortable and found a stool to sit on, "I am planning to go all out in this generation, so I will prepare more than before."
Failing for the eighth time, he knew that he needed more power and treasures to defeat the heavens.
"You're up for another failure?" The silhouette could be heard laughing lightly.
"A failure is a mere result before success." Jin Rou said, "Besides, with my preparations, I don't think I will lose this time around."
Jin Rou only had one chance. He couldn't afford to waste it. He had to prepare meticulously. That's why he was traveling realms to retrieve items that could help him in his final battle.
So far, this would be the toughest battle he'd have. A simple mistake could lead to his death. Who knows? Although the reward of this mission was tremendous, the risk it accompanied with was tremendous as well.
"Meeting that person, you should have known better how powerful that person is. Not to mention you, even the Blackmauve didn't fight back when ther person was angered." The silhouette sternly warned.
"I know. That's why you and I are different." Jin Rou said, "You are stuck here in this place because you gave up, while I keep going on."
"A wise person knows when to stop." The silhouette rebuked.
"No, a wise person knows how to stop, but also knows how to continue going on.." Jin Rou flatly rejected the silhouette's words.
