Chapter 4357
As a blue smoke swirled upward, Kai and Zhu Qingxiu felt a gentle aura enveloping them!
In an instant, time and space twisted before their eyes, vanishing uncontrollably!
Kai fought to open his eyes, eager to see where the moving beads were carrying them!
However, all he could see were blinding white lights darting past, obscuring his vision!
He could distinctly feel a force pulling his body forward!
Meanwhile, when Ning Zhi and the others arrived, they discovered that Kai and Zhu Qingxiu had already vanished!
Ning Zhi attempted to locate Kai using the unusual eyes on his strange face, but after multiple tries, he came up empty-handed; it was as if Kai and the others had completely disappeared!
“Damn it! How did they just vanish like that? What kind of Kung Fu allows two people to disappear into thin air?”
“It seems Zhu Qingxiu activated the Shifting Bead. I recall that the Ten Thousand Swords Sect possesses that!”
“That Shifting Bead is incredibly valuable. Zhu Qingxiu was willing to use it! Yet, during our ambush, she didn’t even think to use it!”
“That’s because she didn’t have the time to do so. If she had pulled out the Shifting Bead, we would have snatched it away long before!”
A few devil cultivators expressed their frustrations!
Ning Zhi, however, scanned the area with a frosty demeanor and waved his hand, causing the strange face to vanish!
He then produced a tiny compass, bit his finger, and placed a drop of blood onto it!
Instantly, the compass glowed red. Ning Zhi closed his eyes slightly, falling into a deep silence!
Meanwhile, Kai and Zhu Qingxiu had no idea how far they had been transported. As they surveyed their surroundings, they realized they were encircled by an endless ocean, with no land in sight!
“What is this place…? It can’t be the depths of the Dead Sea! If we can’t find an island, are we doomed?”
Zhu Qingxiu exclaimed in panic upon realizing their situation!
Without any land, they could only rely on the spiritual energy within them to fly, but they feared that they might end up plunging into the Dead Sea!
Moreover, after their intense battle, both Kai and Zhu Qingxiu were exhausted, leaving them with little strength to sustain flight!
“Let’s take some time to recover. Once we regain our energy, we can search for land more effectively,”
Kai suggested to Zhu Qingxiu.
“How are we supposed to recover? There’s nowhere to land! If we keep using our energy like this, we’ll surely fall into the Dead Sea before we can recover,”
Zhu Qingxiu replied, exasperated.
“Since we can’t land, let’s dive to the bottom of the sea to recuperate. It might help us avoid detection; they won’t expect us to be underwater,”
Kai proposed.
“Are you serious? That Dead Sea is deadly! Haven’t you seen those who fell into it turned into mere bones?”
“The half of my face that got burned was from just a brush with the Dead Sea. I refuse to go anywhere near it!”
Zhu Qingxiu said, touching her scarred face with trepidation.
“Don’t worry; as long as I’m here, the sea water won’t harm you. Remember, I escaped from the ground and have been at the bottom of the sea for quite some time,”
Kai reassured her.
With that, he grabbed Zhu Qingxiu and surged toward the ocean!
Surprised, Zhu Qingxiu instinctively struggled but found herself unable to break free!
Plop!
They plunged into the Dead Sea, and Zhu Qingxiu’s face went pale with fear. Yet, to her astonishment, instead of feeling a scorching heat, her body felt a refreshing coolness, which was quite pleasant!
“What… what’s happening here?”
Zhu Qingxiu asked, astonished.
Kai smiled softly, “I told you, with me around, that seawater won’t hurt you.”
Kai possessed a fire origin and also wielded the Extreme Cold Ice Flame, a unique and powerful type of fire. By releasing a bit of the Extreme Cold Ice Flame’s aura, the surrounding heat waves dissipated!
