Soaring of Galaxia

Yan Zhuiyang was unable to express how difficult his current situation was. He knew that trying to escape by going downwards was a desperate move with a narrow chance of escape, yet, it would be better than the certain death in the area above him.

It was if one was trying to quench his thirst with poison. Despite knowing that you may die of poisoning, if you don’t drink it, you will surely die of thirst.

Therefore, although Yan Zhuiyang knew that his chances of survival by diving dowards was not great, he was still making his way through to the places beneath him with all his effort. Even if he were to get squeezed to death by the water pressure below, it would be better then dying by the hands of Qin Wushuang.

The black stream kept separating from Yan Zhuiyang’s two sides. The deeper he went, the greater the density of the water. Naturally, the pressure was also getting stronger.

As he dove further, Yan Zhuiyang’s breathing became difficult. According to his calculations, he had passed about 1300 metres.

In the beginning, with the passing of each 30 metre area, the water pressure had become higher and higher. After 1300 metres, he felt that after each twelve or fifteen metres, the pressure increased exponentially.

Water pressure kept squeezing Yan Zhuiyang’s entire body. He already started to feel unwell and his dashing speed was clearly not as fast as before.

When he arrived at around the 1380 metre area, Yan Zhuiyang felt as though he was not traveling in the water, but trying to press through the middle of a mountain wall.

The density of the water was less than a mountain wall; however, as the water circled, it felt completely different from a stationary mountain wall. As the movement of the water had formed the water pressure, combined with the density of the pressure, it was as if power from every directions kept squeezing his body into itself.

His breathing also became more hurried. Wrapped by the water, Yan Zhuiyang felt completely surrendered to the water as he could only use the Supreme Dao long blade to open the path before him.

At this moment, the advantage of the Supreme Dao weapon was displayed. As he paddle with the long blade, he would brush away the water pressure surrounding him and open a space. It allowed him to alleviate the pressure as he gasped for breath with an open mouth.

"I’m approaching the 1500 metre area." While Yan Zhuiyang adjusted himself, he released his spiritual perception at the same time to observe the movements behind him.

When he arrived at this depth, the density of the water was far too great, so much so that it cut off his spiritual perception to prevent him from probing into a far distance.

Inwardly, Yan Zhuiyang sneered, "This Qin Wushuang is truly devilish! However, I refuse to believe that he does not have any small weak points? Even if he is strong, could he go on a rampage inside this 1500 depth of water? Humph, if worst comes to worst, I will compete with him and see who can survive the longest!"

Yan Zhuiyang was still confident of this aspect. He thought that certainly his Supreme Dao weapon would be more effective than Qin Wushuang’s Supreme Dao bow and arrows.

It would be impossible for the Supreme Dao bow and arrows to be the same as his long blade in which he could use it to open a path at any moment. Certainly, the effect exhibited by using the bow and arrows to slash open a path would be less than the long blade.

Thinking here, Yan Zhuiyang had instantly become optimistic.

After a moment of adjustment, he finally adjusted his state of mind to be in its best condition. He swung the Supreme Dao long bade and stopped diving further. Instead, he began to explore at a horizontal direction parallel to the water.

He knew that in the end, diving to a deeper water area would be a dead end. He could only strive to find a breakthrough point by swimming horizontally in order to dash to the surface in one move.

As long as he could dash to the surface, Yan Zhuiyang had confidence that he could escape from Qin Wushuang’s killing pursuit!

"This Qin Wushuang is truly shameless. He brought so many helpers with him, clearly he’s violating the rules of the competition!" A furry of curses ran though his mind. Yet in fact, he knew that certainly Qin Wushuang’s helpers were sealed spiritual beasts. The Heavenly Punishing Villa also had sealed spiritual beasts; however, powerful sealed spiritual beast were incredibly rare. After all, the mainstream of the Xuan Yuan Mound was still human martial artists and not a forbidden spiritual zone where the beast clan had occupied the dominant position!

Like a careful wandering fish, he slowly explored within the 1500 metre area. Each time he walked a section, Yan Zhuiyang would try reaching out to see if there was any chance to achieve a breakthrough.

He made a few attempts to break out of this area. Each time when he dashed to about 1300 metres, he would get locked onto by someone. Different forms of attacks would greet him ruthlessly.

Yan Zhuiyang was utterly flustered and exasperated. As he failed repeatedly with several attempts, he would not dare to further expose his location and could only hide within the 1500 metre area. He thought to himself with incomparable gloominess, "This Qin Wushuang surely has some way to lock on to my position. I have been moving horizontally and the water pressure is dispersing in all directions. How could he know which direction I am moving?"

After all, when one used a point as the center, he could use all four directions as a breakthrough point. According to this principle, if the other party could not lock-on to his position as he was moving horizontally, it would be impossible to seize him.

"This must be the case!" Yan Zhuiyang was not an idiot. He considered how three of his friends went missing mysteriously. In this boundless body of water, the four of them had gained nothing after searching for him for more than a month. This Qin Wushuang had easily taken care of three of his friends.

It was absolutely not because Qin Wushuang possessed more brilliant methods than them and not because his spiritual perception skills were greater than theirs. Even if Qin Wushuang had possessed powerful spiritual perception, he would not be strong to this extent.

Even for one at the Supreme Dao stage, under such a dark body of water, it would be impossible for one’s spiritual perception search range to be unlimited.

Qin Wushuang was able to locate all three of his friends in a period of a little more than a month and had easily killed them. It proved that Qin Wushuang definitely had a tool to cheat with.

Additionally, Yan Zhuiyang had experienced his cheating first hand. Initially, Qin Wushuang was chasing after him and regardless of how much he tried to escape, it seemed Qin Wushuang was always able to lock-on to his position easily.

Now, he felt certain that Qin Wushuang had a tool to cheat with.

Thinking of this made Yan Zhuiyang feel incredibly gloomy and defeated. If this kept up, he would have no hope to escape out of this Black Dead Sea.

Was the only option to go straight ahead to fight with Qin Wushuang head on? With this thought, as soon as Yan Zhuiyang remembered how that turned out for Lei Jiao, he instantly lost his energy.

If Lei Jiao was incapable of defeating Qin Wushuang, it would only be a dead end if he went at him. Although he was not weaker than Lei Jiao, he was not stronger than him either.

"Now, perhaps I can wait him out!" Yan Zhuiyang thought, "Endure, keep enduring. After three months, if none of us have gone up, Lords will surely come down to seek us. As soon as my Lord is here, it would be impossible for Qin Wushuang to kill me!"

Now, only half of the time remained until the three month limit. It could be said that as long as he gets through this a month and a half, he would acquire a greater opportunity to live.

Upon thinking here, Yan Zhuiyang’s courage that had been running low unceasingly rose again.

"Qin Wushuang, if I were to succeed in escaping, I would not let you go!" Yan Zhuiyang thought these ruthless words to himself.

At this moment, Qin Wushuang’s voice had once again emerged to be faintly audible. Due to the water pressure, this voice was not as resonant and appeared to be "buzzing" as it got mixed with the momentum of the water. He could still hear it clearly enough.

"Yan Zhuiyang, how do you like the 1500 metre depth?" Qin Wushuang still spoke with a neither salty nor light tone. He asked with somewhat ridiculed intentions.

Sprouting anger, Yan Zhuiyang shouted angrily, "Qin Wushuang, don’t be so proud! Don’t you just rely on your cheating tools? Don’t think that I am not unaware of it! You killed Lei Jiao and the others, if you have any skill, then come kill me too!"

Qin Wushuang said with an unhurried tone, "Kill you? Wouldn’t that be as simple as killing a pig or slaughtering a dog? You think I cannot kill you?"

"You can kill?" Yan Zhuiyang said with a cold sneer, "If you can, then come down. Let’s compete and see who can resist the deep water zone the longest."

Yan Zhuiyang had firmly believed that Qin Wushuang would not dare to come down. In terms of resisting the water pressure, he was confident that he could hold out longer than Qin Wushuang.

Firstly, his Supreme Dao Weapon worked more to his advantage. Secondly, the armor he was wearing was also resisting the water pressure greatly.

Qin Wushuang gave a cold sneer. He had forced Yan Zhuiyang to dive further to make him trapped beyond hope of rescue. As for the water pressure, in normal circumstances he would most likely not be able to hold it longer than Yan Zhuiyang. The Supreme Dao shield Lei Jiao had left him, however, was a weapon of supreme defense power.

"Yan Zhuiyang, since you are asking me to come down, then I will come down to play with you." Since he had chased Yan Zhuiyang to this 1500 meter area, Qin Wushuang knew that it would be impossible for Yan Zhuiyang to escape easily.

Therefore, now was the time to harvest Yan Zhuiyang’s life.

He initiated the Supreme Dao shield and it immediately grew bigger. Like a flying boat that braved the wind and the billows, the water on either side were separated to make a path for him.

The shape of this shield had resembled a small boat. Although it could not be said to move freely within this 1500 metre depth of water, it moved forward smoothly. One could only see the white waves shooting forward from either side and the speed it traveled was much faster than Yan Zhuiyang’s previous speed.

Yan Zhuiyang only felt a small agitated movement from the water. Next, in the region where the naked eye could see, Qin Wushuang’s figure was already clear. When he saw Qin Wushuang was coming at him by using Lei Jiao’s Supreme Dao shield, he had begun to realize the seriousness of the situation he was about to face.

He was spooked out of his mind!

Such speed was not something Yan Zhuiyang could match. If the other party was capable of moving freely within this area, he would not be nearly qualified to contend against him.

With great alarm, he dove down with a subconscious mind. At this moment, suddenly there came a loud rumbling sound in the body of water below. Around the water, there suddenly appeared a black hole-like giant opening. A ray of blue light shot out of the hole and lit up the entire area.

This blue light had appeared as an abnormal evil monster. The surge of immense engulfing power it produced had seemed to place an inducing abyss before Yan Zhuiyang.

To enter, or to not?

Yan Zhuiyang only hesitated for an instant before diving in. He was left with no other choice.

Upon seeing the appearance of this giant opening, Qin Wushuang was also stunned. When he saw that Yan Zhuiyang sprinted to enter, he also followed without hesitation while holding the Graceful Spiritual Bow in hand.

Like a devil opening its engulfing mouth, this blue light had suddenly closed itself. The surrounding water had dropped back to its original place and once again, calm was restored.

Yan Zhuiyang and Qin Wushuang had disappeared out of the water without any trace.
