My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Chapter 338: Beast-Bearing Pool

Only then did the two remember about that intruder called Jing Qi. Upon careful thinking, they realized that they indeed didn’t see him on the way. Especially when they saw those Golden Core disciples fighting the demon beasts, disciples from various sects who attended the contest were all there, but only him was not seen. It was unlikely that Divine Heavens Sect left him alone.

Lonemoon’s heart sank, and without hesitation, he produced a tracking seal. That was left by him very long ago for the convenience of looking for him. Yet strangely, the tracking seal did not respond to him.

“How can this be?” His expression changed. “Where did he go?”

“He should be...” Shen Ying suddenly turned and pointed towards the Mirage Sea, “There!”

“The Mirage Sea!” Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a look, and their hearts both sank. “Can it be that this beast tide has something to do with him?” Just now he was busy dealing with Chef’s explosion of Sword Qi and didn’t care what happened to that stupid kid after the contest. And he didn’t imagine that within only one day, he had produced a big trouble.

“With his ability, it’s impossible to cause such a big Beast Tide!” Yi Qing shook his head. “There should be another reason.”

“Let’s go and take a look!” Shen Ying suggested.

The two then flew up on their swords and went towards the depth of Mirage Sea. Great numbers of half-body beast corpses floated on the surface of the sea. Shen Ying’s sword movement might have been too violent, that only after the three had flown for a long while, they finally ceased to see those corpses.

Yet a great lot of demon beasts newly appeared from the bottom, and the numbers looked even larger than just now. They rushed in their direction in herds. As if they couldn’t see all the corpses filling the sea, they flooded past blindly, as though they were controlled by something.

This is too strange!

“I’m going to catch one to take a look!” said Lonemoon, before he flew down and produced a trapping array with the wave of a hand. The array formed a net filled with Spirit Qi. Lonemoon caught an eighth-level demon beast and brought it up.

The three stopped on a small island near them and threw the demon beast on the ground. The beast looked as though it was mad, hitting the trap around it in a craze. Even when the hitting had made it all bloody, it did not stop. Its eyes shone with a strange red light.

Lonemoon frowned and hit it with a sword spell. The beast fell to the ground instantly. He directly opened its belly with a wind blade, looked over it carefully, and then explored with Divine Perception. His eyes suddenly opened wide.

“This demon beast actually has no beast core!” How can this be? By right, for any demon beast, a Spirit Pill is always formed if it cultivates. Otherwise, there would be no way for them to concentrate Spiritual Power. This was apparently an eighth-grade demon beast, so it can’t have no Spirit Pill.

“Father Niu, how about trying soul-calling?” Yi Qing spoke to remind him.

Lonemoon stopped short, his hand gestures changed, and he used a soul-calling spell immediately. A flash of light was emitted from his fingers and swept directly towards the beast.

In an instant, a faint smoke rose from the beast corpse, which dissipated within a short while, not even forming a shape.

“This is... a remnant soul!” Lonemoon cried out in surprise, and Yi Qing’s eyes were also full of surprise.

There was definitely no problem with Lonemoon’s spells, which meant that the smoke just now was indeed the soul from this demon beast’s body. In the body of an eighth-grade demon beast, there was actually only a remnant soul. No! That might not even make for a remnant soul.

No wonder these beasts would only rush blindly towards the land. They probably didn’t have any spirit. There wasn’t even a soul in their body.

“What happened to their souls? Who took them?” By right, if somebody had done soul controlling they must be able to find the record. Not even Meng Po noticed this one.

“Perhaps, there wasn’t one in the first place.” Shen Ying’s eyes deepened, as she suddenly spoke.

“There wasn’t?” Lonemoon was stunned. “But... this demon beast was apparently alive. How could it not have one to begin with?”

“Over there...” Shen Ying inclined her head, and she suddenly pointed towards the sea surface on the right side. “There’s something interesting.”

“What?”

“There’s a... thing that doesn’t belong to this world.”

Can’t there be another intruder? Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a look, and both of their expressions changed.

“Let’s go over and see!”

Once more they went on their swords and flew in the direction that Shen Ying mentioned.

The further they went in that direction, the more demon beasts there were. The sea surface was filled with layers of many kinds of demon beasts, and their levels increased, with some even reaching that of Earth Immortal. However, they still took no form, and hurried crazily towards the direction in which they came.

They were almost reaching the edge of Mirage Sea. After another more than ten minutes of flying, a black island could be vaguely seen. After looking carefully at the situation on the island, all of them couldn’t help but gasp. There were even more demon beasts on there, and they stacked on one another for many layers, as they climbed out into the sea.

As compared to the beasts inside the sea, these looked even crazier, but there were actually red bloodstains on their bodies. For many, the scaled skin on their bodies wrinkled, like they had just been born. But once they went into water, they turned into adult demon beasts. It was as though with every step that they crawled, they underwent hundreds of years of growth.

The slower they climbed, the higher their levels when they entered the water.

“What island is this?” Lonemoon felt a foreboding premonition. He had never seen anything like this.

“There’s something in the middle of the island.” Shen Ying reminded him.

Lonemoon and Yi Qing flew directly towards the center of the island in the next moment.

From far away, they saw a wave of silvery lights. There was a pool two to three meters wide in the center of the island. The water in the pool was very strange. It was silvery white, like mercury. And those constantly emerging demon beasts came of this pool. They were small at first, but once they came on land, they grew with tremendous speed.

“What is... this thing?” Even Yi Qing was stunned. He used with his Divine Perception and realized that there was actually not a single hint of Spirit Qi flowing. Besides the color, it looked just like normal pool water, yet it could give birth to so many demon beasts. This was a miracle.

Lonemoon felt for his assistant marking in an attempt to see the situation of this pool, but after a while, his eyes suddenly opened wide. “This pool doesn’t belong to this plane!” The word “intruder” suddenly appeared above the pool.

“How can this be?” Lonemoon was confused. “Why is there no alarm for this plane invasion?” There apparently was one in the case of that stupid kid.

“Perhaps it’s been here for too long!” said Shen Ying.

“You mean this thing has been here since before you became a manager?”

“Hmm.”

Lonemoon frowned. This was possible indeed. This was not the first time a Beast Tide occurred. Even in the past when they were still in the lower realm, the side of the Mirage Sea had not been peaceful. There was only no Beast Tide because of Bai Ze. Which meant this pool likely already existed then.

“Whatever the case, the pool can’t be left to continue working like this.” said Yi Qing, who directly called out his spirit sword.

“Hmm.” Lonemoon nodded. “If this goes on, the Beast Tide will be endless.
