Chapter 474 - Vanished
"Big Brother Liu, what\'s a sea whirlpool?" Gu Yu knew nothing about the sea whirlpool and asked Liu Wuxie.
"Are you afraid of death?" Liu Wuxie asked instead of answering Gu Yu.
"I\'m not afraid of death!" Gu Yu said without a hint of hesitation.
"Good!" Liu Wuxie nodded in approval. If Gu Yu were afraid of death, he would use the dragon skeleton to trade for his life and let the Sea Demon Clan spare his life.
As Liu Wuxie and Gu Yu approached within a thousand meters of the sea whirlpool, they began to lose control, drawn in by the powerful suction force. The sea demons pursuing them had noticeably slowed down, unwilling to venture too close to the whirlpool\'s deadly pull.
The sea demons pursuing them had slowed down significantly, not daring to get close.
Liu Wuxie could barely stabilize himself to avoid being sucked into the sea whirlpool. As more sea demons gathered to surround Liu Wuxie, they couldn\'t escape unless they entered the sea whirlpool.
Ding Ye and others also arrived and occupied an area. They fought with the sea demons several times, and the humans suffered heavy losses.
The Abyssal Clan wasn\'t adept at surviving in the ocean and had long left for the land.
"Liu Wuxie, you\'ll enter the sea whirlpool if you go further. Come out so we can get you out of here!" Ding Ye said earnestly, hoping that Liu Wuxie could reconsider his options because entering the sea whirlpool meant certain death.
"Hmph, you\'re no different from the sea demons. You are just after the treasures on me, and you can stop wasting your breath," Liu Wuxie sneered. The outcome would be the same regardless of whether he fell into the hands of the sea demons or humans.
"Why are you taking it this far? I swear to the heavens that I won’t harm you and will even escort you out of the Blood Sea Abyssal Island if you’re willing to hand over the treasures," Ding Ye pleaded, his tone earnest.
It was clear from his eyes that he was sincere, not lying. With the dragon skeleton and Liu Wuxie’s secrets, Ding Ye could not only dominate the Blood Sea Abyssal Island but even venture to the mainland to establish his own sect.
Liu Wuxie\'s eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation as he weighed his options.
"You damned humans! The sea is no place for you humans!" The sea demons far outnumbered the humans, not to mention there were two in the Quasi-Nascent Transformation Realm who possessed terrifying strength.
The sea demons vented their anger on the humans since they couldn\'t capture Liu Wuxie.
"Kill the humans and guard this place! I don\'t believe he\'ll jump into the sea whirlpool!" The elderly yaksha gave an order, and all the sea demons surrounded the remaining humans.
If they killed all the humans, they could guard the whirlpool and eventually wait for Liu Wuxie to emerge on his own. However, the remaining humans were an unstable factor for them.
A fierce battle erupted as the sea demons unleashed a powerful water barrier, demonstrating their incredible strength. They formed vortexes around the humans, creating a chaotic battlefield.
Liu Wuxie, caught in the turbulence, found himself being dragged uncontrollably closer to the sea whirlpool by dozens of meters each time a wave hit him. The suction force from the whirlpool grew stronger, threatening to pull him in completely.
"Wolf Fang, this is no time to fight separately! Let’s join forces and break out together!" Ding Ye shouted urgently. While the treasures were invaluable, survival was more important. The situation had become too dangerous, and the sudden assault by the sea demons had caught them off guard.
"Let\'s break out together!" Wolf Fang nodded, temporarily setting aside their feud to fight the sea demons.
The remaining humans formed into a powerful force, wanting to tear open a path to escape.
The vortices formed by their battles increased, sweeping out as shockwaves. The water barrier formed into a wall to stop the humans from breaking out, but they were pushed back by dozens of meters instead.
The sea demons were cunning because they planned to use this tactic to force the humans into the sea whirlpool.
Ding Ye unleashed his most powerful attack, creating a vacuum passage through the water as he darted forward, abandoning Lin Feng in the process. In the face of danger, survival instincts overruled unity, and cooperation among humans faltered.
If they had truly worked together, breaking through the encirclement wouldn’t have been an issue.
Just as Ding Ye was about to breach the sea demons\' encirclement, the two Quasi-Nascent Transformation Realm sea demons made their move. They unleashed an overwhelming force to stop him, then formed seals to summon water dragons, which disrupted the surroundings and created reverse currents.
The sea whirlpool\'s suction force grew more powerful as the battle intensified.
"Big Brother Liu, we\'re being pulled closer to the sea whirlpool!" Gu Yu\'s face flashed a hint of reluctance because he was only fifteen or sixteen. He might not fear death, but that didn\'t mean he could face death calmly.
"Perhaps this is our fate," Liu Wuxie muttered bitterly. There was no longer any room for retreat; their bodies were beyond their control as an invisible hand seemed to drag them closer to the whirlpool.
The battle continued on the other side, and the aftershocks enraged the sea whirlpool. A powerful vortex formed and enveloped a few thousand meters in radius.
"This is bad! The sea whirlpool is enraged!" The sea demons knew how terrifying the sea whirlpool was and quickly retreated, not daring to get too close.
They were a thousand meters away from the sea whirlpool earlier and had retreated to a thousand and five hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
Ding Ye and others broke free from the sea demons\' attacks, but they were caught in the sea whirlpool and couldn\'t break free from the suction, no matter how hard they tried.
Apart from humans, more than three hundred sea demons were also caught in the whirlpool.
The tearing force grew stronger and ripped Gu Yu\'s clothes into pieces.
The weaker sea demons couldn\'t withstand the tearing force and were ripped into pieces, flowing past Liu Wuxie into the whirlpool.
A black hole appeared three hundred meters in front of Liu Wuxie, reaching a diameter of a few thousand meters, and devoured all the surrounding seawater.
"Liu Wuxie, this is all your fault! We wouldn\'t be caught in the whirlpool if it weren’t for you!" Ding Ye and others roared as they charged at Liu Wuxie in anger. They wanted to drag him down with them even if they were to die.
The others followed suit because their side had suffered heavy casualties in nearly ten days of pursuing Liu Wuxie.
Though those deaths hadn’t occurred directly by Liu Wuxie\'s hands, he was the catalyst that led to their demise. Perhaps realizing their imminent death, Ding Ye gave up resisting and allowed the suction force to pull him, covering a distance of a few hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
"Gu Yu!" Liu Wuxie roared, and Gu Yu vanished before he could react, entering a dark world.
The sea whirlpool was within their reach, and the tearing force could shred someone in the Nascent Transformation Realm. There was no way Liu Wuxie and Gu Yu could withstand the tearing force when they were just in the Heavenly Phase Realm.
"Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, everything depends on you now whether we can survive." Liu Wuxie summoned the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron to devour himself after muttering.
This was the bold idea that came to Liu Wuxie\'s mind upon learning that the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron could store living things. Not to mention, there was no time to consider it. He could only throw everything aside and enter the cauldron before leaving their fate to the heavens.
The Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron transformed into a black dot and plunged into boundless darkness. The vortex was enormous, and the suction force produced loud sounds.
Ding Ye looked utterly dejected when Liu Wuxie disappeared.
"Hahaha! I can\'t believe this is where my life ends!" Ding Ye laughed and was also devoured by the whirlpool, ripped into pieces, and disappeared without a trace.
All the humans and sea demons caught in the sea whirlpool suffered the same fate without exception.
The sea demons who stood about fifteen hundred meters away bore no expression as they surveyed the aftermath. They, too, had suffered heavy casualties in this disaster, with over three thousand of their kin perishing. Lin Feng and the leader of the Wolf Fang Regiment were among the fallen, their lives claimed by the relentless whirlpool.
The sea whirlpool only returned to calm after everything within a thousand meters of radius had vanished as if nothing had ever happened.
"What a pity that the dragon palace’s treasures are lost for eternity!" one sea demon lamented. He had glimpsed the dragon palace’s treasures with his own eyes, but retrieving them had proven impossible.
"Let\'s return and take over the Blood Sea Abyssal Island!" The two elderly sea demons snarled. Without the dragon palace\'s treasures, they could only occupy the Blood Sea Abyssal Island and turn it into their territory.
The humans had suffered significant losses this time, with their faction being the weakest in the Blood Sea Abyssal Island. Yet, this catastrophe was only tangentially related to Liu Wuxie.
For the first time, he found himself within the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, experiencing its interior firsthand. Previously, he had only explored it with his divine sense, but now, being inside, he could feel the immense power of the rumbling demonic flames surrounding him.
It felt like a terrifying world within the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, with liquids flowing around him, weaving through his surroundings like rivers.
Gu Yu was stunned in place, not knowing where he was. He approached Liu Wuxie and asked, "Big Brother Liu, are we dead? Is this hell?"
"This is not hell, and this is a treasure of mine. I hope you can keep everything you see today a secret." Liu Wuxie didn\'t want the secret of the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron to be revealed.
Simultaneously, his expectations for the cauldron grew even higher to see how it could withstand the tearing force of the sea whirlpool, which was capable of tearing cultivators in the Astral River Realm to shreds.
"Big Brother Liu, I know what to say and what shouldn\'t be said. I won\'t even tell my grandfather." Gu Yu wasn\'t stupid and was more intelligent than most people.
The two remained silent and waited until they heard a loud thud from outside.
"It seems like we\'ve landed!" Since the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron no longer sank, they had safely touched down. But they still didn\'t know whether it was safe or dangerous outside.
"I\'ll go out and take a look!" Liu Wuxie controlled the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron to create a small opening, and he stepped outside. When his eyes adjusted to the outside world, he was utterly stunned by what he saw, even if he was a reincarnated Immortal Emperor.
"What a beautiful place!" Liu Wuxie muttered, forgetting to check for potential dangers in the surroundings.
Rows of fish swam past Liu Wuxie and were completely unafraid of him.
