Chapter 135 Undersea Continent
Passing through that underwater whirlpool, the surrounding scenery changed once again.
The seawater pressure here doesn't seem to be very high. Gu Ce first put away the Star-Eating Grass and carefully observed the surrounding environment.
This is a continent located deep in the sea.
Mountains, forests, land, flowers and grass.
Everything seemed no different from the normal mainland.
Not far away on the plain, there is a small village.
It would be illogical for a village to exist in such a place.
But Gu Ce still planned to go and take a look.
Perhaps they are the original inhabitants of the Starflow Sea.
soon.
Gu Ce then arrived above the village.
The village is not very large, with only a few dozen houses arranged irregularly.
There appeared to be a field in the distance, but it was unclear what was planted there.
Several humans, who look no different from Earthlings, are diligently cultivating the land.
The houses here are built with a special kind of metal plate, and there is no information about this metal in Rimuru's database.
The entire village exuded an eerie atmosphere. The outermost part of the village was wrapped in a layer of bubble film. Gu Ce tried to poke the film with his hand and passed right through it.
Is there air inside the membrane?
"grown ups!"
Some of the humans working below looked up and spotted Gu Ce in the air. They greeted him warmly, and then, seemingly worried that Gu Ce wouldn't understand, repeated themselves in the universal language.
Without further hesitation, Gu Ce entered the membrane and came to the human's side.
The power of the world swept across the entire village, and the humans living there were all only at the Eternal Star to Cosmic level, without even a single Domain Lord. This made Gu Ce feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't find the problem.
"Who are you people?" Gu Ce asked.
"Sir, this is Jing'an Island. Are you lost? If you go in that direction, you'll reach Twilight Island," the farmer-looking man said excitedly.
"What are you planting?" Gu Ce asked, looking at the strange plants on the ground.
"Bubble Fruit, only by eating this can we leave this bubble membrane, sir. For a strong person like you, you don't need this to move in the water, but without it, we will be trapped here," the man said.
Next, Gu Ce asked many more questions to get a general understanding of the situation.
First, on this continent, there live many villagers like these, who live inside bubble films.
Since this is a secret realm of the universe, it is not surprising that they reach the level of the Eternal Star or the Universe Level upon reaching adulthood.
Strangely, although they clearly lack the ability to move within the Starflow Sea, they are able to reside on this continent located deep within the Starflow Sea. The island lord of the Twilight Island that this person mentioned is merely an ordinary Immortal, yet he is already the strongest being in the surrounding area.
Can ordinary immortals move freely in the Star Stream Sea?
The answer is no.
It feels more like someone deliberately placed these people here and is raising them in a special way.
……
After leaving the village, Gu Ce flew towards the location of Twilight Island, which the villagers had mentioned.
Dusk Island is the largest city in the vicinity, with a population of hundreds of thousands.
The quality of the residents here has clearly risen by two or three levels, and they are basically all at the cosmic level. Many domain lords and realm lords live here.
Gu Ce entered the city and quickly found the location of the only immortal being in the city, the Lord of Twilight Island.
……
"Master." The island lord of Twilight Island knelt before Gu Ce.
Gu Ce nodded slightly. He had succeeded in using the soul enslavement technique in the "Ethereal Soul Codex" on his first try. It seemed that he had quite a talent for the soul.
"How long have you been here?" Gu Ce asked.
"I don't know," the Twilight Island Lord replied truthfully.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm responsible for collecting bubble fruits for another adult," the Twilight Island Master replied.
"Bubble fruit?" Gu Ce frowned.
This bubble fruit has a round sphere on its outside and comes in many different colors. However, according to the villager and Gu Ce's own judgment, it only temporarily forms a thin film of bubbles on the surface of the body to resist the seawater of the Starflow Sea.
The seawater in this underwater continent is still.
Therefore, the bubble membrane will not be dispersed by the seawater of Xingliuhai. As long as it can withstand the pressure, it can walk in the seawater.
"That's right, the bubble fruit was also something that lord specifically requested to be planted," said the Twilight Island Lord.
"Where is he?" Gu Ce asked.
"In the central basin of this continent, that great one could easily crush us island lords. Master, you must be careful," the Twilight Island Lord said worriedly.
Gu Ce ignored him and flew straight toward the center of the continent.
The unease in my heart grew stronger and stronger.
This place is too eerie, yet I can't quite put my finger on what's so eerie about it.
The continent was not very large, and Gu Ce quickly found the center of the continent, in a huge basin.
A colossal beast resembling a toad was fast asleep, surrounded by mountains of bubble fruits. This beast's strength was estimated to be between the peak and limit of the King-level realm, making it easy for it to crush ordinary immortals.
"Ice Crystal Sword Qi!"
Taking advantage of the giant beast's slumber, Gu Ce unleashed a full-force attack, blasting out 110 million times the power of a World Lord, instantly cleaving the toad-like beast in two.
The giant toad beast awoke with a start, and this sword energy nearly destroyed more than 50% of its divine body!
One more hit, and it won't just fall into a deep sleep, it will perish.
"Trying to escape?"
Gu Ce quickly caught up and delivered the final blow.
"boom!"
The giant toad beast perished, its corpse vanishing from the spot.
The strange feeling in Gu Ce's heart did not disappear.
"That's not right!" Gu Ce said, frowning.
This feeling seems familiar, as if I've experienced it somewhere before.
It's like a dream...
dream?
Is this... an illusion?
……
"Congratulations, you have passed the second test."
A ferocious beast appeared in front of Gu Ce, its ugly and menacing face close to Gu Ce's head, drool almost dripping down.
Gu Ce stepped back without changing his expression, maintaining a safe distance.
He could sense the power of this ferocious beast.
If nothing unexpected happens, it's the Supreme Being of the Universe!
Moreover, it's the kind of opponent you can't beat.
"The second test?" Gu Ce asked cautiously.
"Good, you have passed the first test in the illusion. Discovering the truth of the illusion and waking up is the second test," the ferocious beast nodded and said.
"Let's go, come with me to see the master."
Owner?
Gu Ce frowned.
This ferocious beast is not weak even among the universe venerables, and it also has a master?
Cosmic overlord, or...
Lord of the Universe?
Thank you to "Lord of the Stars" for the donation.
