The Saintess Has A Showdown 474

Chapter 474: Shui Yuefei Wants to Sleep

Hum—
Hum—
Hum, hum, hum!!!

In a nameless region of the deep sea, Gong Lianyue’s mind reeled, assaulted by the pure, crystalline aura of the Water Element before her.

Not just her mind, but the very space around them cracked and distorted, the spirit energy churning chaotically.

The closer she tried to look, the blurrier the Water Element’s form became, its aura overwhelming.

The Frozen Stone Flow Killer, one of the Ten Sacred Waters!

She had encountered several of the Ten Sacred Waters: Never Forget Autumn Water, the Eternal Holy Water, the Ice Forged Decapitator, the Sea Breath Cradle, the Waterlogged Nether Ring, and now, the Frozen Stone Flow Killer. And she herself possessed the Ice Forged Decapitator.

Even collecting all Ten Sacred Waters wouldn’t be enough to summon the mythical Azure Spring, Celestial Maiden, but each one was a priceless treasure for a water-type spirit beast.

Most charged, projectile attacks required compressing spirit energy, like the Ice Soul Cold Star’s Death Tribulation and the Variant Water Emperor’s Condensation, but these were limited by the user’s spirit energy capacity, preventing them from achieving their full potential.

The Frozen Stone Flow Killer’s ability wasn’t to increase a spirit beast’s spirit energy capacity, but to solidify and compress its spirit energy into a tangible liquid, layer upon layer, forming an impenetrable armor.

At this moment, the spirit energy surrounding the Water Element before her was incredibly dense, its purity unimaginable, its oppressive weight increasing exponentially as she approached.

The Frozen Stone Flow Killer. Any being that dared to touch this Sacred Water would be crushed by its viscous spirit energy, a terrifying power even among the Ten Sacred Waters.

Was the Eternal Holy Water’s eternity truly eternal?

What would happen if the Frozen Stone Flow Killer clashed with the Eternal Holy Water?

No one knew. Could absolute quantity overcome true eternity?

The Frozen Stone Flow Killer, and this mysterious Water Element… They must have once stood at the apex of the spirit world.

“Can you see through its disguise? Can you identify it?” Gong Lianyue, her hand covering her mouth, her expression grim, asked softly.

After a moment, the Nether Princess Bai Xue, within her soul core, sent a wave of frustration.

The Frozen Stone Flow Killer’s armor of solidified spirit energy was too thick, impenetrable even to her enhanced vision.

Just what kind of being controlled this Sacred Water?

[We have to run. This thing is a Lost Realm being, pretending to be at the Setting Sun Stage.]

“…”
“…”

Hearing the Nether Spring Narcissus’s sudden warning, Gong Lianyue’s expression shifted from curiosity to a quiet apprehension.

A Lost Realm being?

But wasn’t the Nether Peach, the Martial Concubine, the only untitled Lost Realm being? Where had this one come from?

Having a Lost Realm ally secretly protecting them was reassuring, but the situation had escalated. Perhaps they should retreat and apologize…

Just then, the Water Element spoke again.

[Shui Yuefei, with your current spirit energy level, even unleashing the Galaxy of Stars and all your spirit beasts is useless. None of them can break through my armor.]

[And Nether Spring, you know this better than anyone. Even if you use your ability to escape with Shui Yuefei, what will you do when you face even more terrifying beings in the Black Tide Ancient City?]

_Hmph, such arrogance. It hadn’t even seen her Sun and Moon Domain’s matronly form.

A flicker of annoyance in Shui Yuefei’s watery eyes. In her transformed state, the Ice Banquet Cold Rakshasa could unleash its full power, even the White-Browed Concubine was showing signs of awakening.

And the Frozen Calamity, at its full power, could easily shatter this compressed, liquid armor.

But that was a last resort, a trump card not to be wasted on a friendly spar.

More importantly… that form triggered excessive lactation, extending her fertile period.

Her previous transformation, the resulting surge of hormones, aging her body by a thousand years, had been both physically and mentally taxing, and it had also attracted unwanted attention from other spirit beasts.

Swish!!!

Understanding Gong Lianyue’s intentions, the Nether Spring Narcissus, its moth wings flapping, carrying her, transformed into a black streak of light and vanished.

As the Water Element had feared, the Nether Spring Narcissus, using its ability to phase through matter, could easily escape with Shui Yuefei. No one could stop them.

Intangible, untouchable, their power irrelevant.

However, the Water Element simply watched them go, its expression unchanged.

Bang—

The next second, at the edge of this deep-sea realm, the black Water Element, carrying Gong Lianyue, slammed into an invisible barrier, a spirit energy field, and they tumbled into the water.

Sinking into the depths, the blue-haired woman, held securely in the Nether Spring Narcissus’s arms, stared blankly ahead, her beautiful face a mask of confusion.

What was going on? The Nether Spring Narcissus’s ability… it had been blocked…?

Something even the Eternal Holy Water couldn’t achieve…

They were trapped in this strange, deep-sea world.

[Is this thing crazy?! This is a Domain created from a mythical fragment!!!]

Hearing the Nether Spring Narcissus’s enraged cry, Gong Lianyue’s eyes widened slightly, her breath catching in her throat.

A Domain created from a mythical fragment… that explained why the Nether Spring Narcissus’s ability had been blocked…

As they struggled, the mysterious Water Element, its body a shimmering, translucent liquid, descended, its voice cold and ethereal.

[It’s useless. You cannot leave until you defeat me.]

[Shui Yuefei, struggle all you want.]

[You are still too weak to survive the chaos of the Black Tide Ancient City.]

“…”
“…”

After a moment of silence, Gong Lianyue waved her hand, recalling the Nether Spring Narcissus, the two blades also disappearing into her Sun and Moon Domain, where Luo Kuxin was waiting.

As the Water Element stared in confusion, Gong Lianyue removed her bathrobe, her beautiful, naked body curling up in the water, her eyes closed, her expression serene.

“I’m going to sleep now. Please turn off the lights. Thank you!!!”
