Chapter 645: Chapter 645: Martial Soul Fruit Tree_1

"Understood!"

Ling Xiao wasn’t very surprised.

This was the deep sea, after all, and even if an entire ship’s crew disappeared, that wouldn’t be strange. They might’ve been eaten by some wild beast from the ocean floor or encountered other troubles.

After the crew had all assembled, the submarine left Demon Castle City and began its search mission on the profound seabed.

As a rule, search missions lasted a maximum of seven days; if after seven days there was no result, the crew was obliged to return, or else they would be considered dead.

Ling Xiao, the Thousand-Handed Demon General, and the Fire Wolf Demon General sat in the cabin, drinking tea and chatting.

Most things didn’t require their attention, unless it was trouble they couldn’t resolve.

After all, there were Elders level Martial Artists outside, and it was seldom necessary for any of the three to intervene.

In the depths of the sea, everything seemed so peaceful, much quieter than the surface above.

But this was merely a surface phenomenon.

The dangers of the deep sea often lurked in its depths, and the slightest inattention could lead to the shipwreck and loss of life, a complete tragedy.

Hmm?

Although Ling Xiao appeared to be engaging in conversation, in reality, he had released his True Essence Ball outside the submarine and extended it, ready to detect any unusual movements immediately.

At that moment, his True Essence Ball relayed back information that included a peculiar sound.

It resembled the low growl of a wild beast.

He slowly stood up, "Let’s go, the trouble ahead may be too much for them to resolve."

The Thousand-Handed Demon General and the Fire Wolf Demon General exchanged glances, both somewhat doubtful.

For they had heard nothing and felt no such sounds arise.

However, about sixty breaths later, they showed looks of surprise.

"It’s a Ferocious Beast! And very likely a Level 9 one at that!"

The Thousand-Handed Demon General stated, "Brother Ling, you’re truly impressive to have predicted the appearance of this beast in advance."

"Let’s slow down the submarine; it’s better suited for battle this way. Who will take action, you two, or shall I?"

Ling Xiao asked.

"This little matter needn’t trouble Brother Ling; leave it to me."

The Fire Wolf Demon General clenched his fist, and his eyes shone with a touch of excitement.

This guy was definitely a martial arts fanatic.

The next moment, impossibly huge waves suddenly formed underwater, with a dark shadow cloaked within them, hastily approaching the submarine.

At this instant, not just the three Demon Generals, but the other Martial Artists too, could tell something was amiss.

"Watch me!"

The Fire Wolf Demon General leaped straight out of the submarine, with a giant wolf engulfed in flames materializing behind him.

His title must have been named after his Martial Soul, then.

The Fire Wolf Soul did look impressive and stylish.

In the instant he exited the submarine, the Fire Wolf Demon General threw a punch through the air, and that punch turned into a burning wolf-shaped flame.

Boom!

A massive roaring sound erupted, and the shocking True Essence shock wave churned the sea water into chaos, making the submarine rock like a lonely boat at sea.

Ling Xiao waved his hand, and the Heavenly Dragon Scale Armor, which usually only enveloped his body, actually extended over ten meters to encase the entire submarine.

It completely shielded the vessel from damage caused by the True Essence shock wave.

"In the deep sea, creatures like this Ferocious Beast are common. The data we got from the Sea Race indicates that the variety and power levels of the beasts in the deep sea far exceed those on land," the Thousand-Handed Demon General explained to Ling Xiao.

Her words gave away the secrets of the Sea Race, showing that she really wanted to make a connection with Ling Xiao.

Although a Demon General, in truth, even a Demon General remained nothing more than another’s slave.

Neither the Thousand-Handed Demon General nor the Fire Wolf Demon General wanted to live like that forever.

Roar!

The oceanic beast in the darkness let out a hiss, clearly injured by a punch from the Fire Wolf Demon General.

The creature began to stir wildly at the bottom of the sea, causing the entire body of water to become turbid.

Not only that, but it even created a terrifying vortex, as if to swallow the submarine ship whole.

"Explosive Wolf Fist!"

Seeing this, the Fire Wolf Demon General roared, clasped his hands together, then charged forward, slamming his fists powerfully into the huge monster.

In pain, the beast stopped churning, its body smashed down to the seabed by the terrifying blow.

Ling Xiao had by now caught sight of this oceanic monster.

It was an incredibly bizarre creature, its upper body was that of a Fierce Tiger, yet its lower half resembled that of a fish.

Its body was immense: no wonder a single movement seemed to shake the entire sea.

However, the beast’s forehead now bore obvious signs of being scorched, along with the remnants of dried blood.

That must have been the effect of the Fire Wolf Demon General’s attack.

Although the Fire Wolf Demon General had the upper hand in battle, creatures generally have stronger defense than humans.

This monster was no exception.

To it, the earlier damage was not too severe.

After all, even an ordinary warrior at the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer Peak would easily be killed by a blow from the Fire Wolf Demon General.

Yet it was unable to cause serious harm to this beast.

Such defensive power was truly astonishing.

"Do we really not need to help?"

Ling Xiao glanced at the Thousand-Handed Demon General and asked.

"There’s no need; my husband is just warming up. He likes this kind of battle. Actually, if he wanted to kill this monster, he wouldn’t need to go through all this trouble."

The Thousand-Handed Demon General said with a wry smile.

The next moment, the Fire Wolf Demon General indeed returned victorious. Although he had sustained some injuries, the expression on his face was one of excitement.

"He’s a true warrior fanatic,"

Ling Xiao laughed, thinking that generally, those obsessed with martial arts tend not to be bad people. The Fire Wolf Demon General and the Thousand-Handed Demon General might indeed be potential allies.

Of course, that would only be possible if they made it back alive.

What Ling Xiao was currently concerned about was the danger that might appear and cause a catastrophe like the one that annihilated the previous submarine ship.

A monster?

Or a natural disaster?

Or some other peril?

...

"Look quickly, it’s the Martial Spirit Fruit Tree!"

Two days later, after a dozen or so battles, killing many ferocious ocean beasts, the submarine ship finally found a Martial Spirit Fruit Tree.

"Damn, there’s only one fruit left!"

A Martial Spirit Fruit Tree generally only bears three fruits, and the instant they ripen, they fall. Once they hit the ground, they disappear completely.

This is also why Martial Spirit Fruits are so hard to find.

The submarine ship accelerated towards the Martial Spirit Fruit Tree.

However, Ling Xiao was getting impatient.

Two days might seem easy, but the perilous journey was all too clear to him; if they returned without any gains, it would have been a trip for nothing.

Therefore, he had to get that Martial Spirit Fruit!

Whoosh!

Ling Xiao shot forward, racing toward the Martial Spirit Fruit Tree.

His speed was incredibly fast, too fast for the Fire Wolf Demon General and the Thousand-Handed Demon General to have a chance to compete for the fruit.

By the time they were ready to make their move, Ling Xiao had already arrived.
