Chapter 4706: 4.0458 Unexpected Turns
Grandmother actually believed the legend of the Sea Sacrifice Abyss. Could she really believe it? Grandmother wanted to summon that mysterious power from the Sea Sacrifice Abyss to strip the Ten-Thousand-Year Mermaid Pearl from the little poker face's body. How was this possible?
The Mermaid Pearl had already become one with the little poker face. If Grandmother wanted to forcibly separate the Ten-Thousand-Year Mermaid Pearl from the little poker face's body, then... she would be completely disregarding her life.
Long Hui closed his eyes and sank into the sea, instantly feeling the icy seawater envelop him. His body felt a sudden chill, advancing from far to near. This sea area was connected to the merman tribe's most ancient place for commemorating heroic souls in the sea. Usually, no one would go there. The closer one got to the Sea Sacrifice Abyss, the more one could feel an eerie coldness carried by the currents.
Qiao Mu pursed her lips, swimming incredibly fast. In an instant, she was almost catching up to Long Qian ahead. Her fingertips shot out several ice spikes, rapidly moving through the water towards Long Qian's back.
Long Qian had already sensed this power attacking her from behind. She swiftly flicked her fish tail, darting forward. However, as fast as she was, Qiao Mu's ice spikes were faster. In just a blink of an eye, the ice spikes caught up to her, prickling her back.
Long Qian narrowed her eyes. A defensive barrier suddenly appeared around her, blocking all the ice spikes thrown by the little poker face.
"Grandmother," Long Hui called out anxiously, chasing after them. However, his speed was incomparable to that of the little poker face and Long Qian, leaving him three to four kilometers behind them.
Long Qian turned her head, glancing at Qiao Mu amidst her hurried movements. "You can't hurt me, Mu Qiao."
No sooner had she spoken than a tumultuous vortex suddenly appeared in the sea. Less than a hundred meters from her, a giant white snake abruptly emerged from the vortex, opening its mouth and spewing a cloud of black mist that surrounded her.
Long Qian's heart fluttered with a slight surprise, and her expression changed dramatically. She knew that the little girl had summoned many holy beasts and left them above to help the Heaven Slaying Battle Group resist the Thirteen Elders. Now, in the sea, that fire-breathing black dragon was clearly unsuitable for a place surrounded by overwhelming water elemental energy. The little poker face had already recalled the black dragon.
Long Qian never expected that she could still summon a white snake holy beast by her side. If it weren't for the critical moment, Long Qian truly wished she could ask the little poker face, "Where do you get so many holy beasts from?" Having so many holy beasts accompanying one person was simply incredible.
Qiao Mu ignored Long Qian, not even bothering to look at her, and just told Little White Snake to be careful. Qiao Mu then began continuously pulling out talismans. Countless water spirit talismans formed an array, soaring towards Long Qian.
Long Qian gritted her teeth, raising her green branch scepter to split many of the talismans. She knew she couldn't afford to waste any more time. The little poker face's methods were simply endless. If she continued to dawdle here, who knew what other unexpected tricks she might pull.
The immediate priority was to quickly lead this poker face to the entrance of the Sea Sacrifice Abyss. Once they reached the Sea Sacrifice Abyss area, she could...
"Grandmother!" Long Hui shouted from a distance. His voice reaching Long Qian's ears made her frown, and her face instantly turned somewhat grim.
