Chapter 1352 - 685: Heading to Abyss Island, Rescuing the Lingyu Sisters
Chapter 1352 - 685: Heading to Abyss Island, Rescuing the Lingyu Sisters
Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, among the Five Element attributes, Liang Yuan has now condensed Water, Fire, and Earth attributes.
Gold Attribute and Wood Attribute genes are not yet available.
These gene species are extremely scarce throughout Yangshan.
The current method to acquire these gene species is through hunting Mutant Beast blood to extract gene species.
Even the military is lacking these gene attributes.
However, the military, backed by the Celestial Abyss, has a wealth of Abyss Mutant Beasts to hunt.
These Mutant Beasts from the Abyss not only possess great power but also abundant blood and high quality, and there are even many powerful Mutant Beasts with Genetic Reorganization Level whose extracted gene species are naturally not scarce.
For example, the Golden Crow Beast that Liang Yuan and Feng Jiangong teamed up to kill last time is a typical Fire Attribute Mutant Beast. Its blood is abundant, sure to refine a large quantity of Fire Attribute gene species.
And Fire Attribute gene species is also one of the urgently needed gene species in Yangshan.
Of course, the scarcity is not as severe as Gold Attribute and Wood Attribute gene species.
After all, Yangshan is rich in Fire Attribute Superpower Stones. The entire Yangshan is abundant in Fire Attribute Superpower Stone mines, which has also spawned many Fire Attribute Mutant Beasts.
However, as the population of Yangshan increased, and more people went hunting, Mutant Beasts have reached the point where they require artificial breeding to ensure the continuation of their species.
Liang Yuan’s thoughts spread out and returned to consciousness.
"After going back, find a way to visit the military to trade for Gold Attribute and Wood Attribute gene species."
Liang Yuan’s form flickered, returning to human shape.
In the Mammoth Giant Elephant form, there is another strength.
It is that when situated on the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth, other Attribute Superpower Users become weak due to the dense Dark Attribute energy, preventing them from absorbing other energies.
However, the Mammoth Giant Elephant will not; it stands on the earth, with "Immovable as a Mountain" Talent continuously absorbing the Power of Earth Veins.
Although the Floating Island does not belong to the mainland, it has long accumulated dust and mountains, invisibly condensing a large number of Earth Element power from Earth Veins.
Therefore, the Mammoth Giant Elephant can still absorb the Power of Earth Veins, exhibiting superpowers within the Abyssal Mouth.
Liang Yuan thought that if someday he encounters special regions similar to the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth, perhaps the Mammoth Elephant Genetic Map Talent would become his ace card.
"After consecutively condensing two gene species, it’s time to test my current combat power."
Liang Yuan’s gaze flickered, looking at the frozen floodwaters.
Returning to the Fan Mountain town, Liang Yuan had Ye Nan brought over.
Soon, Ye Nan appeared in front of Liang Yuan: "Mr. Liang, you said you would help our Spirit Jade Island, it’s been so long, I wonder when you might step in?"
His expression was anxious, and he asked directly upon meeting.
Liang Yuan looked at him and sighed, "You’ve seen it here. I’ve been busy lately; Mist City has attacked the Abyssal Mouth several times. We’ve been short-handed."
Ye Nan, hearing this, knew well that Liang Yuan was indeed incredibly busy.
Lately, he had been staying on the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth, naturally aware of the formidable enemies from Baoshan City.
Even Fan Mountain town had been destroyed once; he was naturally aware of Liang Yuan’s situation now.
But he still couldn’t help but kneel on the ground, crying, "Mr. Liang, I know I’m being unreasonable, but I’m truly out of options."
"Turtle Island has been severely injured; the Island Lord and others are trapped inside Abyss Island without external aid might never escape."
"I beg you, for the sake of our alliance against the Three Great Sects back then, show mercy and save the Island Lord and others."
Then, he frantically kowtowed to Liang Yuan on the ground.
Liang Yuan reached out, and Invisible Telekinesis directly supported him.
With a solemn expression, he said, "Brother Ye Nan, please don’t say that. I’ve known the two Island Lords for a long time. We’ve made a pact, and we’ve always supported each other."
"Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would definitely do everything in my power to assist them."
"The reason I summoned you here today is precisely for this matter."
Upon hearing this, Ye Nan was taken aback, his expression showing delight.
"You, you’re going to rescue the Island Lord and others?"
Liang Yuan nodded slightly, "Yes, the matters with Mist City are temporarily settled. I can now venture into the Abyss."
"However, I need you to lead the way, and regarding the situation in Abyss, I’ll need you to tell me more in detail."
"Last time you mentioned there were many powerful Mutant Beasts inside, even pure Merfolk creatures."
"I’d like to ask, how far is the museum these Merfolk creatures are in from that Abyss Island?"
"Also, how are the Spirit Island Master Ling’er and her sister’s powers currently; have they broken through the Genetic Species Group boundary?"
Ye Nan shook his head with a bitter smile: "When I was captured, the Spirit Island Master’s main attribute should have been close to a hundred points."
"She is the strongest among us; others might not have reached one hundred points. As for gene recombination, it’s likely they haven’t reached it."
"As for the museum where the group of Merfolk is located, it’s actually quite close to the Abyss."
"We tunneled underground searching for food and unexpectedly discovered an ancient tomb, following the tomb we reached that museum."
"Can this ancient tomb directly reach Abyss Island?"
"Yes."
Liang Yuan asked further, "Is it dangerous to enter directly from the Abyss perimeter?"
Ye Nan quickly nodded, "By no means, Abyss Island is full of monstrous creatures, with many powerful ones among them, we entered from the perimeter."
"Upon entering, a powerful shrimp-like creature attacked the giant turtle; the giant turtle couldn’t block it."
"We didn’t dare remain, and the Island Lord immediately led us to relocate."
"Who knew that in Abyss Island, there were powerful Mutant Beasts everywhere. Surviving on the island became difficult, and we could only have the Young Island Lord lead everyone to flee and hide within the island."
"Fortunately, the inside of that island is similar to a Floating Island, with a large number of blood vessels pathways, which is the only reason we have enough space to survive."
"However, that internal space isn’t safe either, as there are still some powerful mutated beasts residing in the blood vessels pathways, Blood Crystals, and Brain Lake. Although they’re fewer in number than those outside, they’re still terrifying."
"In short, we’re just barely surviving, and we can only come out through the tunnels now."
"We originally planned to use the tunnels to leave Abyss Island but unexpectedly ended up in that ancient tomb."
"The Merfolk guarding inside have completely blocked our escape route."
After hearing his account, Liang Yuan understood Wang Ling’Er and her group’s current situation.
Liang Yuan was very familiar with the situation inside the blood vessels pathways of the Floating Island.
Back in Mist City, he had already ventured into the underground world.
The blood vessels pathways crisscrossed, and one could easily get lost with the slightest carelessness.
Moreover, the fleshy walls along the blood vessels pathways had extremely strong defenses, almost impossible to be destroyed by external forces.
Unless you had a magical skill like [Protein Corrosive Liquid], specially meant to corrode protein, quickly dissolving a passage.
Having roughly figured out Wang Ling’Er and her group’s current situation, Liang Yuan let out a sigh of relief.
Being trapped on Abyss Island didn’t immediately endanger them.
He immediately said, "There’s no time to lose, take me there at once."
Ye Nan was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Shall we go through the Merfolk’s ancient tomb?"
Liang Yuan thought for a moment and slightly shook his head, "No, just take me through the place where you initially entered Abyss Island."
Liang Yuan was somewhat concerned about the mermaid elder in that ancient tomb.
These Merfolk evidently possessed a certain level of intelligence and even conducted that giant, strange ritual.
This made Liang Yuan worry that the ancient tomb might be related to some mysterious entity.
He had also taken away a mermaid skeletal offering from them and didn’t know what it was meant for.
In any case, Liang Yuan didn’t want to engage with such beings at this moment.
The urgent matter was to rescue Wang Ling’Er and her group first.
The two of them discussed it briefly, then prepared numerous Water-Repelling Runes and other supplies, and subsequently, under Ye Nan’s lead, broke through several meters of thick ice, quickly diving into the water.
Beneath the deep water, it was dark and deep.
The sunken ruins of cities were everywhere.
Liang Yuan and his companion quickly dove down, each activating their Water-Repelling Rune.
The underwater pressure was immense, and without the Water-Repelling Rune, the body could hardly withstand it.
Unless one was a Physique Ability User with an exceptional Constitution, able to withstand it.
Alternatively, an Elemental Ability User could directly elementalize, ignoring physical damage.
Liang Yuan didn’t utilize Water Elementalization, as it consumed superpower.
Since they were on a rescue mission, it was vital to set out in the best condition to face any battle.
Using Water-Repelling Talisman Stone was advantageous as it didn’t require using one’s own superpower, as the Talisman Stone itself was a Superpower Stone, storing enough energy to sustain the rune’s operation.
The two of them quickly moved through roads already submerged by algae and silt, passing some overpasses, where the flowing water stirred up some silt, raising a stream of bubbles.
Liang Yuan asked, "Do you still have any impression of the specific location?"
"I do. At that time, we had an accident in this park area when the giant turtle lost control and plummeted rapidly."
"I distinctly remember it happened near Wanda in the park, as I saw the Wanda sign from a height at that time."
"And I remember the road signs, though severely corroded, I can roughly make out a few words, it should be Wenxi Road."
"Is there a Wanda near Wenxi Road?"
"Yes, Mr. Liang, I am local to this park area; I frequently visit Wanda on Wenxi Road."
Ye Nan swiftly responded and, while swimming forward, carefully identified nearby buildings and rusty road signs among other things.
Passing through dilapidated buildings long since flooded by the sea.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Ye Nan let out a startled cry, his figure halting.
Liang Yuan quickly asked, "What’s the matter?"
"Someone!"
Ye Nan pointed towards a building already submerged by floodwaters nearby.
Unexpectedly, there was indeed a figure flashing past the window.
Liang Yuan was slightly surprised, immediately swimming over, saying, "I’ll go check it out."
He quickly approached the window, his Spiritual Power probing ahead.
Seeing the situation inside, he immediately let out a breath of relief.
"It’s nothing, just a corpse."
It turned out it wasn’t a living person, but a victim long drowned in their home.
Their bones were trapped inside the house, and whenever there was an undercurrent, it would move their bodies, causing them to float up and down inside the room.
Thus, it appeared like a living person walking past the window.
In this eerie and terrifying underwater world, it naturally seemed extremely horrifying.
