Ye Jingchen led Chen Motong and Jiu Deyaji into the submarine.

The submarine's pilot, holding his diving helmet, stood at attention and saluted Ye Jingchen. "Deputy Director Ye, I am Ryoma Echizen."

Ye Jingchen nodded and pressed the Bluetooth earpiece on his ear. "Yuan Zhisheng, have you started descending yet?"

Yuan Zhisheng: "We have already started diving, and the current diving depth is 30 meters underwater."

"Okay, stay in touch." Ye Jingchen nodded and looked at the pilot, Ryoma Echizen. "Begin the descent."

Ryoma Echizen: "Hi!"

The submarine resembled a light blue metal capsule, and seawater began to flood its drainage compartments as it submerged.

Ye Jingchen held Wuming and sat down against the inner wall of the submarine.

Chen Motong and Jiu Deya stood together at the small round glass window, about forty centimeters in diameter, their heads huddled together, looking at what was in the seawater.

As the submarine continued to descend, the names of the fish that Shudeya and Chen Motong introduced kept changing.

Japan is an island nation in the sea, and Aki Shuto is a Japanese girl with impeccable Japanese roots. Her understanding of these marine fish surpasses that of most people in continental civilizations.

"That's krill."

"That's a tuna."

"That's a tiger shark."

"That's a lion's mane jellyfish."

"That flat one is the heaviest bony fish, the sunfish."

"That's an anglerfish, it's quite famous."

"Is that... a hammerhead shark?"

The words that Shudeya had been saying calmly began to sound hesitant and doubtful.

"The location of the ancient dragon embryo? Hammerhead shark? Could it be the one that was originally supposed to fight the giant squid!" Ye Jingchen stood up instantly and walked towards Chen Motong and Jiu Deya.

Chen Motong looked at Ye Jingchen warily, "What are you doing?"

"Let me see what that hammerhead shark looks like. If I'm not mistaken, I think it's a creature tainted by dragon blood, just like the giant squid," Ye Jingchen said, leaning closer to look at the hammerhead shark through the small round glass window.

When Shudeya saw Ye Jingchen approaching, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she turned her head away nervously. "I do think it looks a bit different from a typical hammerhead shark," she said.

As if sensing something, the hammerhead shark swam toward Ye Jingchen's submarine.

As the massive hammerhead shark slowly approached, the driver, Ryoma Echizen, broke out in a cold sweat. "Deputy Director Ye, what do we do now? I sense it's going to attack."

Ye Jingchen, holding the glass helmet, approached Ryoma Echizen and looked at the red and green buttons on the dashboard. "How many meters are we still to our destination?"

Ryoma Echizen: "We still need to dive to about 1,000 meters."

Ye Jingchen nodded. "Okay, wait for it to get close, then launch the torpedoes at it."

"Word of Power: Sword Control." Ye Jingchen closed his eyes and instantly unleashed his domain.

A childlike voice came through the Bluetooth headset: "Ye Sang, that hammerhead shark is approaching your submarine. Do you need our help?"

Ye Jingchen: "No need, I have my own way of handling it. You guys proceed with the original plan to dive."

Yuan Zhisheng: "Okay, Ye-san, remember to contact me if you need any help."

Ryoma Echizen looked at the detection radar on the dashboard. "Deputy Director Ye, the hammerhead shark has closed to within twenty meters. Can we launch the torpedoes?"

Ye Jingchen nodded. "Launch!"

The steel baffle of the missile pod beneath the submarine lifted up, and seven torpedoes were instantly launched from the pod, spiraling towards the Hammerhead Shark!

Ye Jingchen maneuvered the seven torpedoes, all locking onto the hammerhead shark's gills. Once the gills were damaged, the hammerhead shark would disappear into the deep sea.

The hammerhead shark seemed to sense a threat to its life, but it didn't understand what threat such a small iron capsule could pose to it, so it didn't retreat.

The torpedo, as small as a mosquito, shot towards the hammerhead shark and struck its gills.

The pain instantly swept through the hammerhead shark's entire body; the sensory transmission speed of vertebrates is extremely fast.

The hammerhead shark realized something was wrong and tried to escape.

Ye Jingchen concentrated on manipulating the two torpedoes, which penetrated the left and right gills of the hammerhead shark respectively. The torpedoes struck the lower jawbone, triggering the detonators.

With two muffled rumbles, crimson blood mist billowed from the hammerhead shark's gills and spread throughout the seawater.

In a short while, swarms of Gorgon vipers emerged from the deep sea and instantly engulfed the hammerhead sharks.

In the blink of an eye, the enormous hammerhead shark transformed into a skeleton with slightly reddish-white muscles, and sank into the deep sea.

Chen Motong patted Ye Jingchen on the shoulder, "Have you noticed that these deep-sea vipers are generally blue? While the vipers we encountered on the surface were silver."

Ye Jingchen opened his eyes. "The color might be due to its distance from the White King Nibelungen."

Shudeya glanced at Ye Jingchen, still shaken. "Didn't those terrifying Ghost-toothed Dragon Vipers charge at us?"

Ye Jingchen shrugged. "I didn't notice anything. They must have returned to the deep sea area. Ryoma Echizen, are they almost there?"

Ryoma Echizen nodded. "Deputy Director Ye, we're almost there, less than 500 meters away. But this is the boundary between the submarine continental plates, where there are active submarine volcanoes."

Ye Jingchen looked outside and saw that the magma in the golden seabed fissure was dazzling in the seawater, shimmering in the light.

Yuan Zhisheng's voice came through the Bluetooth headset: "Ye Sang, we have discovered a huge stone door here."

Ye Jingchen's eyes darted around. "Is the door open?"

Genjiro: "No, the door is tightly closed. According to the records, this is very likely the entrance to the underwater kingdom. Shall we go in?"

Ye Jingchen shook his head. "No, let's not go in for now. Let's find the ancient dragon embryo first, so we don't end up doing all the work for it."

Yuan Zhisheng: "Okay, keep in touch."

Chen Motong crossed his arms and glanced at Ye Jingchen. "Why don't we split up and go in to take a look? What if the ancient dragon embryo has hatched and is hiding inside the stone gate?"

"Split up?" Ye Jingchen rolled his eyes at Chen Motong. "If we really split up, you won't even have time to cry."

If the ancient dragon embryo has no way to enter the stone gate, and we rashly open the stone gate, giving it the opportunity to enter, then we can only wait for the White King to revive and destroy the world.

If the White King were to awaken during this period, he would be virtually invincible.

Chen Motong hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips, and then fell silent.

Suddenly, Ryoma Echizen, who was piloting the submarine, spoke up, "Deputy Director Ye, I think I've spotted a sunken ship. Would you like to come and take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingchen instantly flashed to Ryoma Echizen's side, staring intently at the sunken ship:

"The Lenin icebreaker!"
