Lords of Hegemony: Conquer from the Mermaids

Chapter 172 Spiritual Spring
Seeing Meng Zheng's expression, a mermaid was very perceptive. With a wave of his hand, streams of blood were continuously drawn out of the water and gathered in his hand.

Blood balls continued to form, and then with a slight wave of his hand, he guided these blood balls to a distant place, and the surrounding waters returned to their former clarity.

Seeing this, Meng Zheng nodded slightly, expressing his appreciation for the mermaid's attentiveness.

"Sir, we have finished cleaning and are ready to set off at any time." A personal guard stepped forward and reported respectfully.

"Well, leave a few people behind and give these things to Chi Yu. She should like these gifts very much." Looking at the corpses in front of him, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. These corpses may be just the remains of the battle to him, but to Chi Yu, they are precious resources.

He turned to the guards and said, "Alright, let's go. Let's find the lair of these guys and where all these Blood Shadow Demon Sharks came from."

Although Meng Zheng kills them easily, the combat effectiveness of this group of blood shadow demon sharks is actually very terrifying.

None of the guards present was sure of victory in a one-on-one fight.

Meng Zheng was carrying several valuable treasures, and today he successfully broke through the bottleneck, which greatly increased his cultivation level. That was why he could take down these guys so easily. Otherwise, he would have had to run away quickly and seek shelter from Hong Lei.

Meng Zheng and his team continued to explore deeper, looking for the lair of this group of blood shadow demon sharks. After a while, they discovered an extremely deep cave.

The water flow in this cave is extremely strong, with large amounts of water waves gushing out every moment.

There are a lot of bubbles mixed in these waves, and the scene is really spectacular!
Meng Zheng roughly estimated his current location and judged that this place was already a thousand meters deep. He didn't expect that there was such a cave.

After signaling his guards to stay outside, Meng Zheng personally went into the cave to check the situation.

After pinching his hands to conceal himself and restraining all his breath, Meng Zheng went straight into the cave.

As soon as he entered, he released his spiritual consciousness, allowing Meng Zheng to see everything around him even in this place without any light.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Meng Zheng took a deep breath!
There were actually countless blood-shadow demon sharks densely packed in this cave.

These guys all stood motionless, their mouths open, breathing in the gas gushing out of the cave.

Seeing how these guys performed, Meng Zheng probably understood.

Sharks are creatures that can never rest because they need to swim to keep breathing.

Once you stop, you will suffocate.

However, if a water outlet can be found that can continuously bring in oxygen, then sharks will often stay in this kind of cave.

Even if the shark does not swim, it can still breathe fresh air continuously, even more than if it keeps swimming.

Meng Zheng marveled inwardly. This cave was a natural lair for the Blood Shadow Demon Sharks. Not only could they get plenty of oxygen here, but they could also hide from their predators under the cover of the cave. No wonder so many Blood Shadow Demon Sharks gathered here.

He carefully moved among the sharks, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb these sleeping giants.

He noticed that although these blood shadow demon sharks were in a static state, their eyes were still wide open. As long as Meng Zheng showed up, he would definitely be discovered instantly.

Meng Zheng continued to go deeper into the cave, searching for possible clues. He wanted to know why these blood-shadow demon sharks gathered here in such large numbers, and whether there was any special reason or purpose.

Although sharks need oxygen, the Blood Shadow Demon Shark does not. At this level of existence, what is oxygen? They can live freely in space.

However, there are countless thunderstorms in the sky of the Eternal Continent, and it is impossible to break out. Otherwise, there might be lords in the sky.

He continued to silently swim among the sharks, his spiritual awareness fully open, carefully sensing every inch of the cave. But when he swam to the end, he still had no results, which made Meng Zheng a little confused.

It shouldn’t be!

If this cave is just a water hole, how can it attract these blood-shadow sharks?

Suddenly, Meng Zheng seemed to think of something.

After releasing the barrier and letting a stream of water flow into his body, Meng Zheng suddenly realized!

It turns out that this is not ordinary water, but spiritual spring water that contains rich spiritual energy.

Spiritual Spring water is extremely rare on the Eternal Continent. It not only nourishes all life but also enhances the cultivation and strength of living things. For high-level creatures like the Blood Shadow Demon Shark, the Spiritual Spring water is undoubtedly a rare treasure. They gather here precisely to absorb the spiritual energy within this water to enhance their own strength.

Meng Zheng secretly rejoiced that he had stumbled upon this secret. He continued to delve deeper into the cave, carefully sensing the source and direction of the spiritual spring water. He discovered that the spiritual spring water seemed to be gushing from a spring deep in the cave, and the water was abundant and continuous.

Just as Meng Zheng was about to explore further, he suddenly felt a powerful breath coming from the cave exit.

Meng Zheng quickly restrained his breath, hid his body, followed the gushing water, and slowly slid out of the cave.

Just as he approached the cave entrance, Meng Zheng saw a huge blood-shadow demon shark, whose body almost blocked the entire cave entrance.

The eyes of this blood-shadow demon shark flashed with a faint green light, and there was blood and flesh between its sharp teeth. It was obvious that it had just returned from a big meal.

As soon as the giant blood shadow demon shark came in, the whole cave instantly became boiling and everyone quickly made way for it.

They all made way and looked at this powerful fellow in awe.

Meng Zheng secretly felt lucky that he had hidden himself in time, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous if he had been discovered by the giant beast.

The giant blood shadow shark slowly swam into the depths of the cave, as if looking for a quiet place to rest.

Meng Zheng took the opportunity to mix in with the group of blood-shadow demon sharks and slipped out of the cave.

This blood shadow demon shark is so terrifying that you can tell at first glance that it is a Xuan-level creature.

Faced with such an existence, even if Meng Zheng had more treasures, he would still have little chance of winning if he fought alone.

However, knowing that there is a spiritual spring here, Meng Zheng naturally will not give up. Although the Canghai tribe has a spring space, it can also produce spiritual springs independently.

But there is no such thing in the branch tribe. Since we were lucky enough to encounter one, it means that this spiritual spring is destined to Canghai Village!

As soon as Meng Zheng came out, his personal guards immediately surrounded him and asked about his situation with concern.

"Sir, you are finally back!" A personal guard came forward immediately upon seeing Meng Zheng return safely.

Meng Zheng shook his head slightly, indicating that he was fine, and then said in a deep voice, "The situation inside is a bit complicated, but I have found the reason why the Blood Shadow Demon Sharks gather here. They gather here to absorb the spiritual spring water in the cave."

Upon hearing this, the guards all showed expressions of surprise.

The water of the spiritual spring is extremely rare on the Eternal Continent. I didn’t expect that there would be a spiritual spring here.
