Meanwhile, several miles away behind the reef area.
On a vast seabed plain, hundreds of enormous demonic killer whales gathered in twos and threes, lazily taking a nap.
As the overlords of this sea, they haven't encountered any adversaries who dare to challenge them for a long time. Their daily lives consist of nothing but hunting, killing, and this kind of boring rest.
Suddenly, an extremely enticing aroma wafted over with the ocean current.
The aroma was incredibly powerful, penetrating directly into the nostrils of every demonic orca and then rushing straight to their brains!
"roar?"
The demonic orcas, which had been dozing, suddenly opened their eyes, turning their heads in confusion, trying to find the source of the scent.
Immediately afterwards, more and more demonic orcas were awakened by this sudden, strange fragrance.
They swam restlessly in place, their huge eyes filled with greed and longing.
This smells amazing!
Just by smelling it, they felt their soul power begin to boil uncontrollably. The thing that could emit this fragrance must be some kind of rare and precious treasure!
Finally, an orca discovered the source of the scent.
A pale pink flower was seen slowly falling from the surface of the sea.
The flowers are large, with petals as clear and translucent as crystal, emitting a soft light. The stamens are pale purple and shaped like a dazzling purple diamond.
A rich purple gas is continuously gushing out from the flower's stamen.
Strangely, even in the deep sea, the water currents could not dispel the fragrance; instead, it became even stronger, spreading far and wide along the seawater.
"Aww!"
The nearest demonic orca let out a low roar, vigorously swung its tail fin, and was the first to charge towards the flower, wanting to swallow it whole!
Seeing that one of its companions had moved, how could the other orcas possibly hold back?
In an instant, the entire pod of demonic orcas was in complete chaos.
Hundreds of enormous creatures surged frantically toward the same target, and the scene instantly descended into chaos.
In their struggle to seize the treasure that had fallen from the sky, they even began to attack each other, tearing apart their own companions.
"roar--!!!"
A roar, imbued with supreme majesty and boundless rage, exploded like thunder in the minds of all the demonic orcas!
All the frenzied orcas that were scrambling for the prize froze instantly, their greed and madness fading rapidly.
They all stopped what they were doing, turned around, and respectfully lowered their heads toward the direction from which the sound came.
At the very back, the Demon Orca King slowly swam out from the pod of orcas.
The Demon Orca King coldly surveyed his people, letting out a sneer in his heart.
A bunch of brainless idiots!
If a treasure appears, instead of offering it to me immediately, you actually think of keeping it all for yourself? You're courting death!
It ignored the trembling tribesmen and instead turned its gaze to the pale pink flower that was still slowly sinking.
Its eyes also gleamed with greed.
But more than anything, there was a sense of vigilance and doubt.
It has lived on this sea for 100,000 years, and what kind of rare and precious things hasn't it seen? But this flower and plant in front of it is something it has never heard of or seen before.
Something unusual must be going on.
The Demon Orca King spread its spiritual power outwards, carefully exploring every inch of the surrounding sea.
However, the results of the investigation only confused it further.
Apart from its own kind and the flower that exudes an alluring fragrance, there is no other sign of life in the surrounding sea.
There were no ambushes or traps.
Could it be... truly an opportunity bestowed by heaven?
The Demon Orca King thought to himself as he slowly swam toward the flower.
The closer you get, the stronger and more enticing the aroma becomes.
The purple gas kept penetrating its body, making it feel extremely comfortable all over, as if every cell was cheering and jumping for joy.
'This flower shouldn't be poisonous, right?'
Gradually, the initial wariness in the Demon Orca King's heart was diluted by this extreme temptation.
Who cares!
'So what if it's poisonous! With my power, what poison in this world could possibly harm me?'
If you miss out on such a treasure, wouldn't you regret it for the rest of your life?
With that in mind, the Demon Orca King no longer hesitated.
It opened its blood-red maw, aimed at the 'Fragrant and Exquisite Immortal Item' that was within reach, and was about to swallow it whole.
In that very instant!
Suddenly, without warning, the space beside the flowers and plants distorted, and a silver light appeared out of nowhere!
The next moment, a hand appeared and firmly grasped the stem of the fragrant and exquisite flower.
This sudden scene caused the Demon Orca King's enormous eyes to shrink abruptly!
There are people here!
The Demon Orca's ripple detection means that any creature with energy within ten miles cannot escape its reach.
Why wasn't this person found?!
Before it could figure out the problem, the owner of that hand had already fully appeared from the distorted space.
He was a tall, handsome young man with silver hair, a calm and collected gaze, and a faint smile playing on his lips.
It was none other than Dongfang Jing, who had already set up a teleportation mark on the Fragrant Silk Fairy Item and was hiding in the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors with Biji, Xiaobai, and a group of Demon Soul Great White Sharks, quietly observing everything!
In the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors, the Eastern Mirror could clearly see the every move of the Demon Orca King through the mirror screen.
Just as this guy finally couldn't resist the temptation and opened his mouth, he immediately activated spatial teleportation and instantly appeared in front of the Demon Orca King's mouth!
Hi, long time no see.
Dongfang Jing retrieved the Fragrant Silk Fairy Item with a single move.
In his other hand, he held a golden cup filled with scorching Yangquan spring water and threw it forcefully at the dark, gaping maw of the Demon Orca King!
"Next time you eat, open your mouth a little smaller!"
With a lighthearted joke, the large cup of scorching Yangquan water transformed into a stream of light and flew deep into the throat of the Demon Orca King!
After doing all this, Dongfang Jing used spatial teleportation again, and with a flash of light, he disappeared from the spot.
The whole process was smooth and seamless.
The Demon Orca King stared wide-eyed at the spot where the Eastern Mirror had disappeared, its gaze filled with shock and rage.
And a hint of...familiarity.
Why does this scene feel so familiar?
It seems like it was the same a few years ago!
It was also a little devil with silver hair, who jumped out in a flash and then disappeared in a flash!
That was the time when his five most valued heirs were captured by that brat using some strange method!
On that very occasion, the Great White Shark Demon Soul Clan, which he should have severely damaged, was rescued by that brat using the same method!
That day was the greatest humiliation in its 100,000-year beastly life!
