Chapter 18

Cute and lively, with a charm that was both innocent and irresistibly mischievous, this was the golden-furred, jade-faced nine-tailed fox, the young princess of the demon fox clan, Qing Qiu Jiuyue.

However, her proud talent for enchantment had no effect on Mei Xue. No matter how many times she tried to seduce him, even using all her strength, he remained as dull and unresponsive as ever, far from the easily infatuated young man she had imagined.

What's going on! Qing Qiu Jiuyue gritted her teeth, glaring at Mei Xue, who was more interested in that rotten stone tablet than in her. She wished she could bite him right now.

"Whoa!" Huang Fei's plump body flew out of the sea, accompanied by another main character of "Jaws 4" — a ten-meter-long great white shark.

After spinning in the air several times, Huang Fei and the great white shark crashed onto the rooftop and rolled several more times, looking utterly disheveled.

"Cough... There's something in the sea!" Huang Fei, who had narrowly escaped a tragic end with the great white shark, crawled out from under the shark. There was a clear bruise on his face, a mark that the great white shark could not have inflicted.

A mere wild great white shark could not injure Huang Fei, a practitioner of immortal arts. Unlike Mei Xue, who was a support alchemist, Huang Fei was a genuine, authentic immortal arts practitioner, one of the top graduates from the Immortal Arts Academy on Mount TianTai. Even a group of great white sharks would be no match for him.

Mei Xue, who was studying the stone tablet, stood up and looked at the sea with Qing Qiu Jiuyue.

"Don't look at the surface; it's in the depths. I was directly pulled out." Huang Fei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

That blow had broken several of his ribs, forcing him to quickly wrap himself in a healing spirit bandage to prevent internal bleeding.

"Hmm... To dare appear around my floating mountain, this is perfect..." Qing Qiu Jiuyue, who had been having terrible love luck lately, was in dire need of an outlet. The appearance of an unknown creature at this moment was like someone offering a pillow while she was sleeping.

"Qing Tian! Battle mode!" Qing Qiu Jiuyue raised her right hand, and a rune representing the highest authority of the floating mountain appeared on her wrist.

"Rumble!" The massive floating mountain began to transform. Four huge azure-colored crystal pillars split into countless smaller crystals, forming a giant crystal rune array to protect the key areas of the floating mountain.

At the very top of the azure crystal pillars, four rhombic polyhedra began to float, then started to draw power from the entire floating mountain, emitting a radiant light as bright as the sun.

This was the battle form of Qing Qiu Jiuyue's private floating mountain, "Qing Tian," a rare mobile combat fortress in the seas and mountains.

The rune rings in the center of the rhombic polyhedra rotated at high speed, instantly drawing a massive amount of energy, lighting up all the immortal runes on the rune ring.

"Wow, this is just..." Huang Fei stared in amazement at the ultra-high-speed rotating rhombic immortal treasure. This was a super-large immortal treasure that required the power of a mountain to operate, known as a war-ender.

Although he was also a rich second generation, he could not even dream of operating such a super-large immortal treasure, let alone buying the parts for one with all his wealth.

This was a war-level immortal treasure that only the most powerful families and forces could afford, a truly priceless weapon.

And this floating mountain not only had one but four of them. This was not a level-four transport floating mountain; it was a luxurious war fortress disguised as a transport floating mountain!

He knew the young princess was wealthy, but this was beyond wealth!

The main components of a war-level floating mountain required special customization, and many of the materials were not available on the market, only circulating internally among the major families and forces.

Had this young princess of the demon fox clan robbed her clan's treasury?

"Hmph! Hmph! This feeling is really nice..." Qing Qiu Jiuyue looked arrogantly at Mei Xue and Huang Fei's surprised expressions after activating her private floating mountain "Qing Tian." She realized that robbing her clan's treasury before leaving was the right decision.

Of course, she knew her actions were tacitly approved. Otherwise, she would not have been able to sneak into the treasury and steal these large items to her private floating mountain.

This was just a whim, but after a night's sleep, she found that the four war-level immortal treasures "Qing Liuli" were all installed, and her highest authority had been added.

When she left Mount Qing Qiu, she saw several black fox elders with dark circles under their eyes, clearly having lost sleep due to her capriciousness.

But this was the golden-furred, jade-faced nine-tailed fox, a great demon that no one could bind. When she decided to find Mei Xue after her cultivation, no one could stop her.

"Die!" Qing Qiu Jiuyue waved her hand, and a transparent green light with layers of azure-colored rings slammed into the sea where Huang Fei had just emerged, causing a massive splash.

A hundred-meter-high water column shot up, and countless great white sharks were killed, but there was no sign of the creature Qing Qiu Jiuyue had hoped to see.

"Hey, didn't you say there was something in the sea?" Qing Qiu Jiuyue was sure that the attack should have penetrated the sea, so why hadn't she seen the unknown creature Huang Fei mentioned?

"Definitely, it's like an octopus or a squid, a big one." Huang Fei was 100% sure because he had been hit by a tentacle.

"Squid, I hate them!" Qing Qiu Jiuyue disliked those slimy, tentacled creatures. In her mind, they were all to be destroyed.

"Watch out!" Mei Xue suddenly grabbed Qing Qiu Jiuyue and rolled away.

A semi-transparent wave easily penetrated the floating mountain's rune array, grazing the spot where they had been, then disappeared as suddenly as it had appeared.

Although it did not hit anyone, a sharp whistling sound covered the entire floating mountain, destroying the already activated rune array and stunning almost everyone.

The massive floating mountain lost control, slowing down and eventually stopping in the middle of the sea.

"Ouch... What was that sound..." Mei Xue struggled to stand up, noticing that the floating mountain had suddenly become silent, with only the sound of the waves around them.

What happened? Mei Xue did not remember losing consciousness; he had indeed pulled Qing Qiu Jiuyue away from the attack.

Clearly, he had underestimated the attack. Although he had avoided the direct hit, the subsequent sound wave attack was far from ordinary, almost completely destroying the floating mountain's defense system.

This was not a capability of any ordinary creature in the seas and mountains. The bizarre, silent attack and the ability to specifically target the immortal arts system made Mei Xue have a very bad feeling.

"Could it be... a Jiu You Zhong?" Mei Xue looked at the seemingly calm sea, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Jiu You Zhong—creatures from a world beyond, not bound by the laws of the seas and mountains, said to come from the terrifying world known as "Jiu You."

What kind of world these monsters lived in, why they descended upon the seas and mountains, and what they wanted, remained a mystery.

The major forces of the seas and mountains had studied for countless years but could only barely outline the partial features of these terrifying Jiu You Zhong.

First, Jiu You Zhong are divided into three types. After descending, they automatically choose their living areas and begin to prey on various intelligent beings.

The most common type is the "land-dwelling type," which is active in the mountains and has various forms and sizes.

The second type prefers the sea environment and usually has a large body and regenerative abilities, known as the "sea-dwelling type."

The last and most rare but most terrifying type is the "sky-dwelling type," which is completely不受 the laws of the seas and mountains and is the only known creature capable of freely flying in the sky.

After the galaxy shattered, the laws of the entire seas and mountains changed. The sky is always filled with the wind of destruction that can obliterate souls and is filled with endless calamities.

Any intelligent being, once outside the protection of the laws of the seas and mountains, would instantly be scattered and punished by the heavens. Therefore, whether it is the human race or the demon race, they can only rely on the seas and mountains and cannot fly beyond the sky.

Unless, one ascends to the "Immortal Platform" above the nine heavens, achieving the body of an immortal.

However, the Jiu You Zhong do not belong to the seas and mountains. Although only the extremely rare "sky-dwelling type" can freely fly in the sky, they possess many abilities that the seas and mountains cannot decipher.

Indeed, every Jiu You Zhong has innate supernatural abilities, and all of them are incredibly powerful. This is the most terrifying aspect of these creatures that have descended from the Jiu You Sea.

According to records, these Jiu You Zhong suddenly appeared in the seas and mountains. When they descended, a huge crack appeared in the sky, reflecting an endless nightmare.

This was later known as the "Jiu You Sea," the source of the name Jiu You Zhong.

The appearance of the Jiu You Sea is unpredictable in time and location, a kind of unforeseen disaster. Each appearance of the Jiu You Sea is a catastrophe, indicating that the seas and mountains will be invaded by the Jiu You Zhong.

This unfavorable situation was only contained when the Third Immortal Platform "Dao Lian" descended, and the Heavenly Sword Xuan Yuan Hong ascended to the Immortal Platform with supreme sword qi. Before ascending to immortality, the last thing he did was to use his Heavenly Sword and the Immortal Platform "Dao Lian" to completely seal the Jiu You Sea, freeing the seas and mountains from the shadow of the Jiu You Sea.

For thousands of years, the major immortal sects and clans of the seas and mountains have fought countless battles against the descending Jiu You Zhong. A thousand years ago, they finally forced these terrifying creatures into a sea called "Yueyue Sea" and set up the most powerful immortal seal in the seas and mountains, preventing these terrifying creatures from leaving that sea.

However, nothing is absolute. Every so often, one or two Jiu You Zhong escape from the theoretically perfect immortal seal.

Mei Xue had always thought these were legendary creatures and never imagined he would face such an indescribable terror.
