"Brother Chen, you mean the place where that soul beast is located is a small island?"
On the sea surface, Lin Xiao and Chen Haisheng were flying through the air. Lin Xiao lowered his head and glanced at the Sea Princess and Liya beneath the sea surface, then turned to look at Chen Haisheng beside him.
"That's right, it is indeed a small island." Chen Haisheng looked into the distance without turning his head. "That soul beast seemed to appear out of nowhere; I've never heard of its traces before."
"And after it appeared, that small island quickly turned into a bizarre place. Generally, any sea soul beasts that approached it never appeared again."
"Does Brother Chen know the specific year it appeared?"
"I'm not clear on the exact time, but it was probably three or four years ago."
Lin Xiao nodded upon hearing this, checking the soul tools on his body while his thoughts continued to churn.
If that soul beast appeared four years ago, then why did it only start taking action recently? What has it been doing during this time?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao shook his head slightly.
None of these things existed in his memories from his previous life. Trying to guess the intentions of a soul beast was far too difficult. These unresolved matters could only be slowly figured out after meeting it.
He only hoped his guess was not wrong and that he could find news of the Teacher's divine sense fragment on it. Otherwise, searching for a needle in the ocean like this would take who knows how long.
While Lin Xiao was pondering, beneath the water surface, the Sea Princess was also watching him. After a long while, she turned her head with a complicated expression and glanced at the person beside her.
"Mom?"
Seemingly noticing the Sea Princess's gaze, Liya turned her head to look at her.
"I really don't know what you were thinking. After leaving, you actually went to find that human who took away the Ocean's Heart back then."
"Mom, didn't we already talk about this before? He was also acting against his will, and later he returned the Ocean's Heart. Besides, this time when I was injured, he was the one who saved me."
"You, you ah…" The Sea Princess wanted to say something, but seeing Liya's expression, her tone softened again. "You're just too naive. How can you believe a human's words?"
"But Mom, didn't you say that our Sea God was also a human before becoming a god?"
"You—" The Sea Princess was instantly stunned. "How can that be mentioned in the same breath."
Saying this, she didn't want to continue on this topic. "Forget it. For the sake of him saving you, I'll tentatively believe him this once. As for you, this time coming out is extremely dangerous. Why didn't you stay properly on Sea God Island?"
Liya swung her fish tail, moving closer to the Sea Princess. "Mom, you're still not fully recovered from your heavy injuries, yet you still came out."
"Sigh, didn't I already say? This time I don't need to take action; I only need to use our clan's bloodline to activate the Ocean's Heart and assist from the side."
"My injuries have already recovered quite a bit. This level of activity is still doable. Sea God Island not only saved me but also helped us restore the power of the Ocean's Heart. I can't help with this favor."
Liya pouted with some dissatisfaction. "I'm Mom's daughter. I can also activate the Ocean's Heart. Following along, I can help too."
Seeing this, the Sea Princess ultimately didn't say any harsher words. "Sigh, I really can't do anything with you. But once we get there, you must stay by my side and protect yourself well."
"Mm, I know, Mom."
There were rarely any reference points on the sea surface. Lin Xiao was not familiar with the ocean and for a moment, didn't know exactly how far they had flown; he only saw the sun set and rise again.
Although the four of them were traveling together and their speed was not as fast as Lin Xiao traveling alone, it was definitely not slow either. The place Chen Haisheng mentioned seemed quite far from Sea God Island.
"Brother Lin, we're almost there."
Along the way, Chen Haisheng and Lin Xiao chatted intermittently. No one knew what marker Chen Haisheng had discovered, but his tone suddenly changed, and his figure gradually slowed to a stop.
Looking around, Chen Haisheng turned to Lin Xiao. "Brother Lin, although we still can't see any traces of that soul beast right now, that soul beast's perception is extremely sharp. If we go any further, we'll be discovered by it."
"Brother Lin has been traveling for a day and a night. Do you want to rest for a bit?"
Lin Xiao looked ahead and indeed saw nothing. Hearing Chen Haisheng's words, he shook his head. "No need for that."
His "soul core" was a complete world. Although it couldn't yet achieve the endless, inexhaustible soul power generation like a true world, it was far thicker than that of ordinary soul masters.
After all, purely in terms of soul power, when he was at level 95, he could already stand shoulder to shoulder with Di Tian.
Chen Haisheng looked at Lin Xiao with some surprise upon hearing this.
He himself possessed Limit Douluo cultivation with two great soul cores coexisting in his body, so he naturally wouldn't be too tired. He just hadn't expected that Lin Xiao, whose soul power rank was lower than his, would show no signs of exhaustion after traveling the whole way.
"In that case, then…" Chen Haisheng said, looking down toward the sea surface.
"We mother and daughter, are sea soul beasts to begin with. We didn't consume much soul power on this journey." The Sea Princess had clearly heard what Chen Haisheng had just said to Lin Xiao.
"In that case, everyone, be careful."
Seeing this, Chen Haisheng nodded. His voice carried a few more traces of caution, and the soul power in his body was already ready to burst forth.
Lin Xiao slightly turned his head and glanced at him, but quickly withdrew his gaze. The luster of the River Styx's Embrace flowed around his body.
Continuing forward, before they could see any traces of the soul beast Chen Haisheng mentioned, Lin Xiao's expression suddenly changed.
With his spiritual power, he had already sensed a strange aura permeating the sea surface. Vaguely, it even carried a somewhat familiar feeling.
He turned his head to look at Chen Haisheng and saw that his expression was normal, so Lin Xiao didn't say anything more.
After flying forward for some more time, Chen Haisheng slowed his speed even further.
"Brother Lin, can you sense the changes in the surroundings?"
Lin Xiao remained composed and nodded slightly.
"In Brother Lin's opinion, can you detect any suspicious aura within it?"
"There is indeed a bloody and murderous aura." Lin Xiao spoke, yet his brows remained tightly furrowed the whole time.
He had sensed that something was wrong here even earlier than Chen Haisheng. An unknown number of sea soul beasts had died in this area; the bloody and murderous aura was quite dense. It indeed bore some resemblance to the residual aura he had felt back in the mermaid territory.
However, he did not sense even the slightest trace similar to Electrolux's divine sense fragment from it.
When he had searched for the second divine sense fragment, merely by touching the statue, Electrolux and he had been able to react immediately.
But now, there was nothing at all. It was even inferior to the sea soul beast Lin Xiao had encountered outside Dongyang City back then. At the very least, that sea soul beast had indeed drawn the attention of both Lin Xiao and Electrolux.
Could it be that he had guessed wrong?
Lin Xiao's thoughts churned continuously. His expression did not relax, yet his figure did not stop.
