#6668 - Tracking Mermaids
The warship sailed into the deep sea, making it impossible to escape the notice of the sea beasts.
Moreover, this news spread quickly among the sea beasts, and even the scouts arranged by Ye Liuyun received the message.
The message they received was that the human race was invading the sea area, and all sea beasts were to go and stop them.
However, Ye Liuyun also used those scouts to pinpoint the direction from which the order came.
This further confirmed that the sea beast issuing the order was a mermaid.
The orders conveyed by the mermaid had unique sound waves. Two of the sea beasts controlled by Ye Liuyun directly received this sound wave.
"Accelerate forward! Open all defenses!"
Ye Liuyun also issued orders to the martial cultivators piloting the warship.
Golden light flickered on the warship's hull, protected by a light罩, instantly traversing the void.
At this time, countless sea beasts were rushing towards them, unaware that their target had already disappeared.
Ye Liuyun did not hesitate to consume a large amount of profound crystals to allow the warship to traverse the void.
That warship had also been specially selected, and its speed of traversing the void was extremely fast.
However, the consumption of profound crystals was also terrifying. With just one traverse of the void, half a profound crystal mine was gone.
Even though Ye Liuyun was wealthy, the profound crystals in his hands could not withstand many such traverses.
But this traverse of the void allowed them to advance tens of thousands of miles into the deep sea, completely shaking off the encirclement of the sea beasts.
Moreover, their current location was not far from the mermaid giving the orders.
"Go!"
Ye Liuyun did not hesitate, and with a shout, he led the Dragon Girl, Chi Lian, and the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon to dive into the sea.
His purpose was to intercept and kill that mermaid, and he couldn't let it escape.
The warship followed them on the surface of the sea, commanded by two clones.
The mermaid immediately discovered the suddenly appearing warship, and while summoning sea beasts to intercept, it frantically fled towards the deep sea.
Unfortunately, its speed was not as fast as the Dragon Girl's and the others'. The speed of a True Dragon in the water was also a thousand miles in an instant.
Soon they caught up with the mermaid and discovered that its realm was Mixed Origin Sixth Level.
With a command from the mermaid, the sea beasts guarding it immediately rushed over to intercept them.
Ye Liuyun was also well-prepared and immediately released the martial cultivators he had brought to meet those sea beasts.
He then led the Dragon Girl and the others to continue chasing the mermaid who was fleeing alone.
Seeing that it couldn't shake them off, the mermaid suddenly made a turn and continued to sprint wildly.
"Quickly catch up to it, it might be going to find helpers!"
Ye Liuyun also anxiously transmitted his voice to the Dragon Girl and the others.
The mermaid's sudden turn was obviously intended to find helpers to stop them.
"Is this guy so timid, or is he particularly cautious? A Mixed Origin Sixth Level expert doesn't dare to attack us!"
Although those sea beasts were not very intelligent, they had also seen Ye Liuyun release some martial cultivators and sea beasts on the battlefield.
Although Ye Liuyun had just released many martial cultivators, the mermaid knew that he still had powerful puppets that he hadn't used.
However, its speed was still not as fast as the Dragon Girl's and the others', and it was quickly caught up.
Ye Liuyun and the Dragon Girl and the others joined forces to attack the mermaid.
Consciousness power, lightning, void fire, absorbing bloodline power, demonic energy erosion, and physical confrontation were all used.
However, in the end, the mermaid was injured and escaped, and it was not killed on the spot.
After all, it was also a Mixed Origin Sixth Level expert. Even if they could use consciousness power to borrow the power of heaven and earth, it would be difficult to kill the opponent.
Especially since Ye Liuyun was not very adapted to fighting in the water, after all, this was not his home field.
"Forget it, don't chase! Lest we be led to powerful sea beasts!"
After the mermaid escaped, Ye Liuyun called a halt to the Dragon Girl and the others, telling them not to chase any further.
The Dragon Girl looked at Ye Liuyun with a puzzled expression.
Logically speaking, even if Ye Liuyun couldn't obliterate the mermaid, he wouldn't have let it escape.
His strongest divine soul attack and slave seal hadn't even been used.
Even the Red Lotus Karmic Fire hadn't been fully unleashed during the battle just now.
Seeing her puzzled gaze, Ye Liuyun just smiled and took out a treasure.
Tracking Mirror!
He hadn't used this thing for a long time. Mainly because he hadn't encountered anyone he needed to track from a long distance.
As soon as the Dragon Girl saw the Tracking Mirror, she immediately understood that he was going to play the long game.
The few of them immediately returned to assist the martial cultivators in destroying those sea beasts, and then returned to the warship.
As for the injured mermaid, Ye Liuyun could now use the Tracking Mirror to see all its activities.
It was still fleeing into the deep sea, and while escaping, it didn't forget to let out a shrill cry, conveying orders.
Ye Liuyun quickly received a message from the scouts, saying that the mermaid was ordering the sea beasts near the coast to participate in the landing battle.
And the sea beasts near the mermaid were all rushing over to protect it.
Ye Liuyun immediately summoned all the scouts to go over, so that they could stick close to the mermaid and get the news as soon as possible.
Ye Tianshi also led several martial cultivator experts to dive into the water again, capturing some ordinary sea beasts nearby to search their souls for information.
Then these newly captured sea beasts would also be sent to monitor the mermaid's orders.
"Follow that mermaid!"
Ye Liuyun had the warship also adjust its direction and chase after the mermaid, driving it towards the deep sea.
Although the mermaid had escaped with its life, it was also seriously injured, with injuries to its divine soul and body.
Although Ye Liuyun had let it go, he had also made it impossible for it to continue commanding the sea beasts, and it had no choice but to return to its lair to recuperate.
In the Tracking Mirror, he saw the mermaid barely run to the territory of several blue whales and was surrounded by those blue whales.
Those blue whales were all in the early to mid-Mixed Origin realm and did not attack it.
After communicating for a while, one of the blue whales carried the mermaid on its back and swam towards the deep sea.
The other blue whales rushed towards their warship.
Ye Liuyun arranged for Ye Tianshi to lead the Dragon Girl, Chi Lian, and the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon to meet those blue whales.
Ye Tianshi had the Ancestral Throne in his hand, the Dragon Girl had the Gluttonous Cup, and Chi Lian had the Town Heaven Tablet, all of which were treasures that could be used.
Even the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon had treasures like the World-Destroying Black Lotus, all of which had a certain ability to protect themselves.
From now on, the underwater battles would mainly rely on the few of them.
The sea dragons captured before were only used for early warning and did not have much combat effect.
Before long, they saw several black dots on the surface of the sea getting bigger and bigger, feeling like floating islands.
Then they confirmed that these were the blue whales. The sea dragons also roared a warning at this time.
Although those blue whales were not high in realm, they seemed not to have heard and continued to rush towards their warship.
The sea dragon scouting in front saw that the warning was ineffective and immediately rushed up.
"Bang!"
The sea dragon's tail and the blue whale's tail struck together, setting off a滔天巨浪, creating a huge vortex.
Ye Liuyun's Mixed Origin Fourth Level sea dragon was only evenly matched with the opponent and did not gain any advantage.
Obviously, the blue whale had a great advantage in strength because of its huge size.
