I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 648 The Deal Begins, A Dangerous Whirlpool

Only after Jiang Chen left did Hong Jishi and Ao Hongchen raise their heads from the pile of Tianshan suits.

Hong Jishi asked curiously, "Xiao Chen just came back, why is he leaving again?"

Li Xueru casually said, "He said there's another deal to complete, but I don't know who it's with."

Ao Hongchen said, "Can't this child take a rest?"

Hong Jishi said irritably, "You didn't seem to rest much when you were young either. Put down that bracelet on your wrist, I was the one who had my eye on it first."

Ao Hongchen shouted, "Get lost! I was the one who chose it first. When did it become your turn?"

Hong Jishi was unwilling to give up, "I'm only missing three pieces in my suit."

Ao Hongchen immediately retaliated, showing him no respect whatsoever, "I only need two more pieces. Who can you blame for being slow? If you say another word, I'll chop you in half with one strike."

I'll punch you into a pulp!

The two went back and forth, neither willing to give in.

Li Xueru chuckled lightly; the two of them were already used to their playful bickering.

They're already young, but they act like old children, and they can't be happy unless they have a fight every day.

After seeing Jiang Chen off, he put the Blood God Disc into the Dragon Tower and began to study and analyze it carefully.

He lay lazily on the chair, as if he were taking a nap.

His mind had already entered the Divine Dragon Tower, and he began to analyze every detail in the Blood God Disc.

They have just been able to manipulate the laws, but their understanding of them is still superficial.

With such a great opportunity presented to him, how could Li Xueru possibly miss it?

The laws must be understood by oneself, and everyone's understanding of the laws is different.

At this stage, it's no longer like when you were in school or learning simple skills, where a tutor could still teach you.

How far you go depends entirely on yourself.

Li Xueru has studied the rules in the past few days, but he still can't quite grasp them.

Only when upgrading can that trace of the law be incorporated into the skill.

It indeed greatly increases the power of the skill, far exceeding that of the past.

However, he is unable to actively integrate the laws into his skills later on.

The Blood God Disc that Jiang Chen is providing now contains laws from the God of Blood.

Although our paths are different, they can serve as a reference.

Li Xueru was completely absorbed in his research, while Ao Hongchen and Hong Jishi were left to their own devices.

Even if Hong Shen's courtyard is demolished, it's none of his business.

What could be more important than studying the laws?

The Divine Dragon Palm possesses an extremely powerful teleportation ability, and can even select coordinates within an ancient battlefield.

Li Xueru clearly had the coordinates of the Divine Dragon Ancient City, and instantly teleported Jiang Chen to the vicinity of the Divine Dragon Ancient City.

Jiang Chen visited Shenlong Ancient City for the third time. From a distance, Shenlong Ancient City appeared to be square.

Its side length is only about five kilometers, so it can only be considered a small town. In the Divine Dragon Empire, some larger villages are much larger than the Divine Dragon Ancient City.

However, Jiang Chen knew its true form; it was not an ancient city at all.

This is a war fortress.

Moreover, its actual size is much larger than what we see at this moment.

When it arrived, it drastically reduced its size, curling itself up completely.

If one day he were to unleash his full power again and return to his peak condition, it would undoubtedly be a terrifying weapon of mass destruction.

Jiang Chen did not enter the city this time. After watching for a while, he flew to the edge of the cliff.

The Qinglong Sea surged and crashed against the rocks, producing a thunderous sound.

The Azure Dragon Sea is neither as thunderous as the Wind and Thunder Sea, nor as dazzlingly beautiful as the Starlight Sea. On the surface, the waters are very turbulent, but those who have been down there say that the water is actually quite calm underneath.

Compared to the rapids on the water's surface, it's like two completely different worlds.

Moreover, those who went down did not encounter any danger and all said that the Azure Dragon Sea should be safer than the Starry Sky Sea and the Wind and Thunder Sea.

Jiang Chen didn't believe there was a safe place in the ancient battlefield.

"The Great God of Tianshan said that when the God of Holy Sound fell, he smashed through the Wild Continent, and his divine essence fell into the Azure Dragon Sea below the Wild Continent."

"But so many years have passed, the water level has changed, and the divine essence must have gone with the water flow, and no one knows where it has gone."

"Others are looking for a needle in a haystack, I'm looking for a god in a haystack."

Jiang Chen chuckled inwardly; this matter was probably not going to be easy.

They wouldn't bother with me if it were easy; there's definitely something fishy going on down in Qinglong Sea. If there's no danger, I can just find any level 80+ professional.

If one doesn't work, you can find several more.

It's not like there aren't humans.

Jiang Chen flew cautiously into the distance.

His first destination was not the Wild Continent, but the place where ocean currents converged, the center of the lower space.

At the center of the four continents in the east, west, south, and north, there is an enormous vortex.

The water in the ocean is constantly surging towards the whirlpool.

If the divine essence is indeed carried away by the water, then its direction of flow will be the central vortex.

"I just hope I don't get caught in the whirlpool, or I really won't be able to find it."

"However, I only promised the Heavenly Mountain God that I would do my best." Jiang Chen exerted all his strength and moved forward at a speed of 1000 meters per second.

His body was covered by the waves of the Azure Dragon Sea, one wave after another.

From a distance, they look like large blue dragons, leaping out of the sea from time to time and churning on the surface.

The name Qinglonghai comes from this.

Jiang Chen flew without encountering any danger.

He didn't even see any living beings; he didn't see them with his eyes, nor did he sense them with his soul.

Wherever he went, it seemed as if there were no living beings.

That alone is very strange.

Both the Starlight Sea and the Wind and Thunder Sea are home to some native monsters.

However, none of the Azure Dragon Seas he has flown over so far have been there.

Huo Lieyang once broke through the ice layer of the Wild Continent to enter the Azure Dragon Sea, where he was injured by a highly poisonous creature. This indicates that there are monsters beneath the Azure Dragon Sea.

Therefore, Jiang Chen could only guess that the absence of monsters here was due to the existence of the vortex.

The monsters all stayed away from the vortex.

He was now less than 10,000 meters away from the vortex, and could already see the enormous vortex from afar.

The whirlpool was like a black hole, constantly sucking in seawater that was surging in from all directions, its destination unknown.

The moment I saw the vortex, a thought suddenly popped into my head: "Could the vortex be dangerous?"

The thought had barely formed when a warning came from his soul, followed by a chilling sensation.

Danger!

Jiang Chen immediately stopped and then retreated rapidly.

Just as he retreated, an invisible giant hand swept past him with lightning speed. Had Jiang Chen been even 0.1 seconds later, he would have been struck by the giant hand.

The giant hand was invisible to the naked eye, and Jiang Chen was able to detect it because he was constantly releasing his soul power.

Jiang Chen retreated continuously, only stopping after retreating several thousand meters.

His face looked rather pale; his soul had just trembled violently.

Although it wasn't hit by the giant hand, its soul was still impacted.

The projection of one's soul is a double-edged sword; it can detect danger, but it also provides an opportunity for others to attack.

When the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal was attacked, it emitted a dragon's roar, which protected the soul.

Otherwise, the damage to the soul would be much more severe.

Now it roared again, spewing forth its soul power to heal the soul. The soul had suffered a shock, but only minor injuries; it was nothing serious.

Jiang Chen was alarmed, as this sudden attack came without any warning.

The attack targets the soul, silently and stealthily.

If he hadn't dodged slowly, that palm strike would have severely damaged his soul.

In the instant it passed by, Jiang Chen sensed an immense and extremely chaotic soul aura emanating from the giant hand.

The inside of this giant hand appears to be composed of countless souls.

The power of these souls mingled together, merging into one, and could unleash tremendous power.

However, the wills of these souls were chaotic and disordered, and when mixed together, they became even more chaotic.

However, it was extremely powerful, and Jiang Chen himself could hardly withstand it.

"No wonder, no wonder there are so few records about this place, the whirlpool."

"The records only warned that this place was extremely dangerous and that people should never go near it."

"Everyone who got close was dead; there were no survivors, so naturally no one knew what had happened inside."

They waited there for a while and were not attacked again.

Jiang Chen remembered the location where the giant hand had attacked him and cautiously approached it with renewed courage.

The soul remains in an outward-facing state.

As he approached within ten thousand meters of the vortex, that sense of danger rose once more.

Jiang Chen retreated instantly, simultaneously withdrawing his released soul.

He once again sensed an immense soul force sweeping past his eyes, the whistling wind penetrating his soul.

"Ten thousand meters, that's the clearance."

"If the giant hand has a sense of territory, then the area ten thousand meters away from the vortex is its territory."

Jiang Chen understood and began to fly around the vortex, maintaining a distance of 11000 meters.
