My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 395: Chapter 263: Abyssal Tidal Sound: The Twin Jades Unearth Secrets, Part 2

As the two of them tore through everything in their path and arrived at the core vein area, the system prompted: "Detected a Tier Twenty-Eight Saint Mutated Creature: Vast Ocean Snake Mother."

At that moment, an unprecedentedly massive Tidal Snake Demon appeared.

System: "Detected a Tier Eighteen Mutated Creature: Tide Demon Snake Queen."

It was quite different from the previous snake demons. It had the form of a half-human, half-snake, with the beautiful upper body of a woman and the lower body of a serpent. Its scales were embedded with coral fragments, and it wielded a shield created through the Refinement of a giant clam. With a fierce roar, it summoned an endless tsunami that felt like the end of the world.

However, under the suppression of Li Xiang’s Earth Pivot World Record and Luo Feifei’s powerful Water Superpower, this half-human, half-snake Exotic Beast couldn’t make any big waves.

Li Xiang brandished his White Jade Golden Hook Rod. Showing no mercy for the beautiful creature, he shattered the half-human, half-snake demon with a single, vicious blow. It exploded into tens of thousands of pearl-sized fragments that SHOWERED all over the ground.

Seeing so many "Gemstones" gave one the feeling of having struck it rich. But in reality, as long as the raw materials were good enough, Li Xiang’s Crystal Vein Armor could create them too. High-purity Gemstones were nothing special to him now.

Luo Feifei shrugged and joked, "Brother Xiang, you’re so cruel to the ladies. I thought that Tidal Snake Demon was quite a snack. Why didn’t you capture it to take home and play with?"

Li Xiang glared at her. "How about I capture you and take you home to play with!"

"Come on, then! I’m waiting! Come and get me!" Luo Feifei puffed out her ample chest, refusing to back down.

Li Xiang took a deep breath, reining in his impulse. He lightly flicked her smooth forehead and chided, "Stop joking about things like that all the time. Be careful, or one day my inner beast might get the better of me, and then it’ll be too late for regrets."

"Tee hee, that won’t happen." Luo Feifei gently took his arm, looking as cute and charming as a little bird clinging to him. It was a double entendre that sent the imagination wandering—was she saying Li Xiang wouldn’t lose control, or that she wouldn’t regret it if he did?

Ultimately, Li Xiang successfully claimed the Jade Sea Mica Crystal Mountain from the core vein area.

System: "Congratulations, Host, for killing the Tier Twenty-Eight Saint Mutated Creature, the Vast Ocean Snake Mother. Reward: 2800 Achievement Points, three Tier Fourteen Mutated Spiritual Medicines, ’Tide Sound Sea Heart Lotus,’ and one Tier Twenty-sixth Extraordinary Item, ’Abyssal Sea Royal Seal.’"

This Tier Twenty-sixth Saint Tier item, the Abyssal Sea Royal Seal, was naturally no Mortal Item. It possessed three Extraordinary Attributes: "Tidal Domain: Abyssal Sea Domination," "Vast Ocean Transformation: Coral Throne," and "Returning Ruins Tide Sound: Spiritual Resonance."

"Returning Ruins Tide Sound: Spiritual Resonance" could release a Tidal Sound Pulse three times per day. The pulse wave had a healing effect on Water Superpower Users (restoring 20% Spiritual Power) and would inflict the "Sea Pressure Rupture" effect on non-Water Element enemies (internal organs suffer the impact of 60 MPa of water pressure).

"Vast Ocean Transformation: Coral Throne" could absorb minerals from seawater to instantly form the "Deep Sea Coral Armor." The armor’s surface was densely covered with protrusions shaped like the Snake Mother’s scales, capable of reflecting 80% of physical impact force and releasing a paralyzing sea anemone toxin (causing an attacker’s limbs to stiffen for 3 seconds on contact). Duration: 30 minutes. Cooldown: 6 hours.

As for "Tidal Domain: Abyssal Sea Domination," simply put, it allowed the user to control all aquatic life within a ten-nautical-mile radius. Although Luo Feifei was a Water Element Transcendent, she could previously only control a radius of two hundred meters at most, relying solely on her own strength.

It had been just over a hundred meters before, but after her breakthrough, it had increased to a range of about two hundred meters. That was certainly impressive, but it was a far cry from the power of the Abyssal Sea Royal Seal.

This Abyssal Sea Royal Seal could only reach its maximum potential when wielded by a Water Element Transcendent. In Li Xiang’s hands, it would unleash only half of its power at best. That was a poor trade-off, so after a moment of consideration, Li Xiang took out the precious Abyssal Sea Royal Seal and gave it to Luo Feifei.

Since he had already given her the most valuable item, the Tier Twenty-sixth Extraordinary Item "Abyssal Sea Royal Seal," he went all in. The other Spiritual Medicines obtained on this trip, like the "Sea Soul Condensing Pearl Grass" and "Tide Sound Sea Heart Lotus," were rich in Water Attribute Spiritual Power and therefore also perfectly suited for Luo Feifei. And so, Li Xiang gave her all the Spiritual Medicines he had acquired on this trip, stuffing her blue Space Gem Ring completely full.

Luo Feifei was deeply touched. Then, she couldn’t help but joke, "Giving me so many valuable Spiritual Medicines, and now such a precious Saint Tier Extraordinary Item... Brother Xiang, are you trying to be my sugar daddy again? Huh? Why did I say ’again’?"

"So, do you want them or not?" Li Xiang asked.

"I want them, I want them! Only a fool would say no," Luo Feifei said, looking at Li Xiang with a sly smile.

Li Xiang: "..." ’I suddenly have a feeling that she’s insulting me somehow.’

Luo Feifei said softly, "Brother Xiang, I heard that collecting seven Royal Seals can summon a Sea God’s wedding?"

’What the hell?’ Li Xiang thought. ’How come I’ve never heard of that?’

With intense concentration, Luo Feifei formed an Ice Crystal at her fingertip and carved both of their names onto the surface of the Royal Seal. The seawater suddenly lifted them, and within a few breaths, the two of them had reached the surface of the ocean.

A bright moon rose over the sea, bathing the world in its light.

"Brother Xiang, look! Even the ocean thinks we’re..."

Before the words "a perfect match" could leave her lips, Li Xiang interrupted her. "Do you remember how I punished you that one time?"

"Punished me for what?" Luo Feifei thought. ’When did you ever punish me? Haven’t you always doted on me, spoiled me, and basically been my sugar daddy?’

Li Xiang said, "I was teaching cultivation methods in the backyard, and you were down below, winking and making eyes at me. I punished you by forbidding you from dating."
