Vanguards of the War of Resistance! Let's travel back in time together, classmates!

303 Journey to the East, Part 9: The Undersea Fairy Palace

After exchanging dozens of blows with the giant fish, Shangguan Yun couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed. This giant fish looked clumsy and huge, and there was no magical fluctuation on its body. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be his opponent.

However, this big fish was very agile. After fighting for a long time, Shangguan Yun barely managed to hurt it. The Golden Spirit Sword only managed to leave shallow wounds on its tentacles, let alone leave any injuries on its body.

At this moment, the primordial energy of heaven and earth was in great chaos. Hurricanes raged across the sea, whipping up huge columns of water that swirled back and forth on the surface. Shangguan Yun realized that things were not good and that he could not linger in battle.

Thinking of this, the Golden Spirit Sword unleashed its power, forcing back the sweeping tentacles. Shangguan Yun turned and left, but the giant fish was furious and chased after him relentlessly.

At this moment, not only were water columns whipped up by the gale, but countless whirlpools of varying sizes were also gradually forming on the sea surface, and a powerful attraction was faintly emanating from them, causing Shangguan Yun's body to sink slightly.

With the surrounding environment in such a chaotic state, Shangguan Yun was completely disoriented and couldn't tell which direction she was going. All she could do was run.

A giant fish, brandishing its tentacles, relentlessly pursued the prey from the sky, while towering columns of water, thousands of feet high, swirled wildly all around. And that wasn't all; suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.

"Crack... Boom..."

A loud clap of thunder and lightning erupted, followed by a torrential downpour.

Shangguan Yun was almost in tears. "What the hell have I done? Why did I choose such a terrible path and end up in this dead end? I'm begging to be violated, begging to be abused. This is a situation where there's no way out..."

Wait... there's no way to get underground... Suddenly, Shangguan Yun's eyes lit up. Didn't he know water escape techniques? Thinking of this, he glanced at the big fish that had just caught up behind him, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind. That's what he'll do.

Shangguan Yun immediately took out a teleportation talisman and infused it with a trace of magic power. But after a flash of white light, Shangguan Yun disappeared right under the giant fish's nose, leaving only a bewildered giant fish behind.

A hundred miles away, Shangguan Yun staggered and appeared, immediately cursing, "Damn it... it's still the same, I might as well not have run away..." Seven or eight large fish around him lit up and quickly surrounded him.

Shangguan Yun gritted his teeth and rushed into the water with a golden light, trying to use a water escape technique to escape.

However, he was rather unlucky; by sheer coincidence, he ran right into a huge vortex.

"Damn it... Are you kidding me..." Shangguan Yun fell into the whirlpool and found that his body was out of control. The powerful attraction carried him forward quickly in the water.

To be honest, Shangguan Yun was completely dizzy. It was already dark outside, and the water was dark to begin with. The swirling currents and currents made him feel disoriented. If it weren't for the system's support, he would have almost fallen apart.

There was no other way but to turn on the system protection to try and protect myself from external harm.

He didn't know how much time had passed when the rolling waves surged and various forces from unknown directions swept over him. He felt that he must have entered a long ocean current.

Then, as if passing through a dazzling portal of light, he felt a sudden lightness in his body. The previous feeling of weightlessness and strong attraction disappeared, replaced by a relatively warm sensation. The last bit of clarity that Shangguan Yun retained awakened him.

The water flow here is relatively gentle. Although I am still in the deep sea, I can feel that this is a normal ocean, not the abnormal area like the World of Warcraft that I was in before.

After communicating with the system, the system responded with a sense of powerlessness, still unable to connect to the teleportation array. This meant that I had not yet escaped the area covered by the array. But what was that light gate I had just passed through? Could it be a portal to another world?

Meanwhile, in a small world belonging to Earth, a vast region brimming with spiritual energy and dotted with numerous cultivation sects, a white-robed Taoist priest sat upright in a grand palace, preaching and spreading the Dharma.

Suddenly a stream of light entered the main hall, and the Taoist priest reached out and took a communication talisman, after which his expression changed drastically.

"What? The ancient seal shows signs of breaking, and spiritual energy is leaking out... Someone, immediately summon the leaders of the seven major sects to the Jade Void Palace for a meeting..."

Whew... Where am I now? Shangguan Yun recovered some of his strength and used his Water Escape Technique to wander around the unknown seabed. It was indeed a normal ocean. Although he didn't know how deep it was, he recognized many of the marine creatures and could name them.

Shangguan Yun swam and observed the sea. After several hours, he decided to go up and look out onto the surface. If there was land, that would be the best outcome.

"Whoosh...bang...Ouch, what's that..."

Shangguan Yun, who was rapidly rising to the surface using Water Escape Technique, bumped his head on something and was blocked underwater. The shimmering water was not far away, but he could not take another step forward.

Unconvinced, Shangguan Yun summoned the Golden Spirit Sword and desperately slashed upwards.

"Bang bang... Ah..."

Shangguan Yun nearly went mad, finally letting go of his hand in despair, his body floating limply in the water. "Damn... it's actually a barrier... Waaah..."

Shangguan Yun was on the verge of tears. "Hongling... come out and chat. We might be trapped here to die, haha... look where we are..."

"Ding-dong... Please note that due to excessive energy loss, the system sprite is temporarily unavailable. Please check it yourself if needed. Additionally, some system functions have entered hibernation..."

The cold system notification sounded, like a bucket of cold water being poured over Shangguan Yun's head in the dead of winter.

"It's over, we can't leave... A hero of his generation, dying young, the superhuman Shangguan Yun, is about to fall... Waaah..."

System, you old hag! All you think about is completing your missions. Don't you know your own limitations? You dragged me along to my death... Waaah!

Shangguan Yun's mental defenses completely collapsed, and he began to curse the unscrupulous system.
