Chapter 1995 - 454: Sea of Death

Opening his eyes, he found Brother Lin squatting not far away, having already lit a bonfire and roasted two large Spirit Beast legs.

Lei Ming could never have imagined that the two of them nearly broke through to a new Realm simultaneously, with Brother Lin being much faster—it was truly incredible.

He finally understood why Brother Lin advanced so quickly; even this speed was something ordinary people couldn't compare to.

But isn't the test of the Great Dao supposed to be difficult? Why, to Brother Lin, is it just a piece of cake?

Adjusting his mood, he walked straight toward Lin Yifan.

As he got closer, Lin Yifan casually asked him, "How's your recovery going?"

"Basically well."

"Here! Have a Spirit Beast leg to replenish your body."

Lei Ming had been coveting it for a while, so he didn't hold back. He took the Spirit Beast leg from Brother Lin's hand and began to gnaw at it while unraveling the doubts in his heart.

"Brother Lin, how can you break through so fast? Don't you need to comprehend the Great Dao?"

"Comprehending the Great Dao is something minor, not worth mentioning."

"Come on, are you really that amazing?"

"There are countless more amazing than me; I'm just an ordinary person among the masses," Lin Yifan replied modestly.

"If you are ordinary, then what am I?" Lei Ming rolled his eyes, never having seen someone so pretentious.

"Don't overthink it; hard work leads to breakthroughs," Lin Yifan reassured.

Lei Ming no longer wanted to ask, because no matter how much he asked, he wouldn't get an answer. So he changed the subject: "Brother Lin, I've found that after being with you, the things I'm able to perceive have become richer and more vibrant."

"This proves your aptitude isn't bad!"

"Wrong, it's Brother Lin who has influenced me, allowing me to understand many things I couldn't before."

"That's because you're lacking outdoor experience."

"No, normally I frequently go out for outdoor experiences, but I've never perceived as much as when I'm with you," Lei Ming retorted.

The reason he could break through to the Realm quickly this time was entirely due to Brother Lin's influence.

It was Brother Lin's guidance, combined with practice and philosophy that opened his eyes and enlightened him profoundly.

Unable to shake him off multiple times, Lin Yifan simply spoke truthfully: "I'm telling you, kid, don't think of clinging to me, we are not walking the same path."

"How are we not on the same path? We are all Cultivators, both wishing to visit the high-dimension worlds in the future," Lei Ming refuted.

"Who cares about touring the high-dimension worlds?"

"You obviously don't care because you're originally a Cultivator from the high-dimension world, but got tired of it and decided to come down here to bully us juveniles," Lei Ming responded.

"Aren't you over a hundred years old, or at least several decades old? How dare you claim to be a juvenile?" Lin Yifan smirked, speechless.

"Brother Lin, you're not aware of this, but around here, a Cultivator under a hundred years old is considered a juvenile," Lei Ming replied.

"Wow, surely the Realm of Longevity, living this long," Lin Yifan couldn't help but marvel.

On the Home Planet, all the Sects and Loose Cultivators crazily pursued the Realm of Longevity, the Path of Longevity, which is understandable; after all, reaching here means you can live hundreds or even thousands of years.

"Brother, it sounds like you're not from the Realm of Longevity."

"Would you believe me if I said I wasn't?" Lin Yifan seriously asked.

"Of course not. Can one believe such a thing?" Lei Ming didn't even think twice before rejecting it.

In the Realm of Longevity, unless you are from there, it's impossible to exist here.

"Alright! At least you're smart!"

Lin Yifan didn't want to reveal too much, knowing you can never awaken someone whose mindset is firmly entrenched.

"Thank you, Brother Lin, for the compliment."

...

Finishing their Spirit Beast legs, the pair took a short break and then resumed their journey.

Currently, they were essentially without a goal, training wherever they ended up.

Unknowingly, they stepped into a forbidden area—the Sea of Death.

The Sea of Death is located at the far eastern end of the Tai Chi Continent.

It's deemed a forbidden area because the Great Dao Rules are numerous here, and a slight misstep could result in one's body being torn apart and obliterated, leaving no trace.

Moreover, from the distant sea, ominous creatures occasionally surface, eerie and mysterious, horrifyingly bleak.

The Sea of Death is much like the unmanned mining areas, both being the continent's outermost borders.

This place is not trodden by Cultivators, so there might be many opportunities.

For Lei Ming, it's forbidden territory that he doesn't want to touch or go near.

So upon realizing they were at the Sea of Death, he immediately tried to persuade, pull, and drag Lin Yifan away: "Brother Lin, there's nothing worth seeing here, let's go."

"What are you scared of? We haven't even entered the sea yet; nothing will happen," Lin Yifan reassured.

"I've heard that as soon as you get close to the Sea of Death, ominous things will crawl onto you, so let's leave early," Lei Ming voiced his concerns and fears, hoping Brother Lin would heed caution.

"Ominous things?"

Upon hearing these words, Lin Yifan immediately thought of the curse encountered at Snow Moon Lake.

That curse was also an ominous thing—could it be here too?

The Sea of Death and Snow Moon Lake are both deep waters, so maybe there's indeed a curse here.

Curses are very evil, and while he can evade them, it's not the same for Lei Ming, hence his genuine concern for Lei Ming's safety.

"Kid, you better step aside; I fear those ominous things might latch onto you, and I won't be able to save you."

"Brother Lin, aren't you scared? Won't anything happen to you?" Lei Ming asked.

"I have countermeasures, no need to worry about me," Lin Yifan replied.

"Alright then, take care; I'm heading off."

Lei Ming truly didn't dare to risk his life, and since Brother Lin mentioned he might not be able to save him, it's better to heed advice.

Lin Yifan continued walking by the seaside, surveying what mysteries the Sea of Death held.

The first sight was the sea water that resembled ink, then the boundless ocean.

What's even more astonishing is that the Sea of Death had no waves.

It's known that a slightly larger lake has waves, yet this vast Sea of Death has none, unfathomable.

No wonder it's called the Sea of Death—this sight truly resembles deathly silence, devoid of any vitality.

Lin Yifan was very curious whether any creatures existed in this sea.

If there were, what were they and how do they survive in such a harsh environment?

Approaching the sea's edge, repeatedly bowing down to observe, apart from seeing sand and ink-black sea water, he found nothing else; not even a small fish.

Furthermore, not even a single shell could be found on this shore—extremely eerie.

Naturally, Lin Yifan wasn't content, and he continued searching along the seaside.

As he searched, he suddenly noticed some movement in the water.
