The mermaid army marched forward, slowly exiting the Whale Fall City.
The gate was large enough; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to accommodate so many troops passing through at once.
"Oh, right..." Just as Chu Tian followed, and the King was about to reach the main gate, the Mermaid King suddenly stopped.
For some reason, Chu Tian was sure he turned to look at the Third Princess... Xing, and said.
"Xing'er, the鲛纱 (Jiao Sha) you nurtured, did you bring it?"
The Third Princess was stunned and immediately understood.
She extended a small hand, and three small flames floated in her palm.
White things like flames drifted slowly.
"Father, Xing has only nurtured these three 鲛纱 (Jiao Sha) over the years."
As the Third Princess spoke, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Three pieces? Haha... Not bad, not bad!"
Although the Third Princess felt somewhat dissatisfied, the King praised her greatly.
"Nephew, these three 鲛纱 (Jiao Sha) will be temporarily worn by you. They can completely negate the power of seawater and allow you to breathe normally!"
As the King spoke, the Third Princess... Xing, understanding his meaning, handed the small flames in her hands to Chu Tian, Wei Du, and Chu Xinghe.
Chu Tian felt very curious when he heard the Mermaid King's words.
He gently picked up a small flame with his finger.
"This... so small, how do I wear it?" Chu Tian frowned.
He brought it closer to his eyes, looking speechless.
"Just stick it on your forehead!"
Xing said, a hint of blush appearing on her face as she spoke.
Chu Tian didn't pay much attention and curiously stuck the flame onto his forehead.
Swish...
A cool sensation spread throughout his body.
Chu Tian extended his arm and took a look.
He found that his entire body was covered by a layer of translucent white, gauze-like clothing.
Touching his face, he discovered that this gauze garment, like a jellyfish, formed a shield over his head.
It adhered tightly to his skin.
But it did not affect his actions in any way.
Originally, within the Whale Fall City in this deep sea, he had to activate his seal form to move.
After putting on the 鲛纱 (Jiao Sha), he felt all the buoyancy around him disappear.
It no longer restricted his movements.
Chu Tian was amazed by how magical the 鲛纱 (Jiao Sha) was.
He quickly turned off his transformation and tried it out.
Indeed, he, who couldn't swim, felt as if he were walking on flat ground here.
"Haha..." Chu Tian burst out laughing.
He moved his body and shot out through the water curtain barrier of the gate.
Wei Du and Chu Xinghe also showed surprise in their eyes.
After putting them on, they moved their bodies and followed Chu Tian, drifting out.
The little dragon girl was left behind; she naturally didn't need this thing.
Moving her body, she also followed them out.
It was the Mermaid King who lagged behind.
At a slightly further distance behind, the Mermaid Prince saw this scene, his expression changing.
Clearly, he was displeased with the actions of Chu Tian and the others.
However, the Mermaid King's expression remained unchanged.
He even called out, "Nephew, do not advance rashly. Those fellows are not to be trifled with."
As he spoke, he also rushed out of the water curtain.
At this moment, Chu Tian and the others had already rushed to the forefront of the team.
Chu Tian knew that those guys were in the distance, but his divine sense was limited, and coupled with the darkness of the seabed, he couldn't observe them with his naked eye.
If this were on land, over a distance of twenty li of flat terrain, he should have already seen the enemy's army.
Suddenly...
"Report... the army of the Twelve Sea Clans has stopped advancing five kilometers away and has already formed ranks!"
Another mermaid scout swam over to report.
It was at this moment that the Mermaid King caught up with Chu Tian.
The scout reported to him.
The King waved his hand, and all the mermaid troops halted.
They had only gone a thousand meters out of Whale Fall City.
"Jiao Qing, Jiao Ling, form ranks..."
"Yes..."
A man and a woman spoke simultaneously.
Chu Tian knew that these two were two generals of the mermaid tribe, a brother and sister.
After hearing the order, their eyes flashed with excitement.
It was known that the mermaid tribe had not been at war for countless years.
Their positions as generals were completely nominal.
This time, they finally had a chance to show their skills.
Chu Tian narrowed his eyes, surprised by the enemy's rapid advance, now only five kilometers away.
The seabed was too dark, and there was no visibility at all.
"Illuminate..."
Suddenly, Chu Tian heard a crisp shout.
Turning his head, he saw General Jiao Ling.
After she shouted, Chu Tian saw the mermaid tribe members who had stopped moving.
Chu Tian watched this scene with curiosity.
This seabed formation was different from that on land.
On land, formations were on a flat plane.
But here, they formed a cubic formation.
At General Jiao Ling's command.
Chu Tian saw those giant turtles slowly rise.
Reaching the very top of the formation.
The shells behind them...
Slowly opened...
Buzz...
Chu Tian felt a dazzling light flare up.
Then, countless beams of light shot out from Whale Fall City.
They hit the inside of the shells and then reflected outwards...
Directing outwards, scattering far away.
In an instant, like spotlights, they illuminated the seabed world ahead as if it were daytime.
At this moment, Chu Tian clearly saw the Allied Army of the Twelve Sea Clans, five kilometers away.
Various shrimp soldiers, crab generals, sharks, tuna...
And other fish Chu Tian couldn't name.
The moment the light flared, the enemy sea tribes showed signs of confusion.
They were clearly unaccustomed to such strong light.
Moreover, this light, like spotlights.
In this dark seabed, it was also a form of suppression.
"You Twelve Sea Clans, advancing with such a large army towards Whale Fall City, what is your intention?"
The speaker was General Jiao Qing, who was at the very front of the formation.
"Yo... Isn't this General Jiao Qing? You, with the most idle position in this entire Whale Fall City, why?
Are you bringing out your troops today for some practice?" A mermaid, about a meter tall, emerged from the center of the enemy formation.
"Jiao Sha, as a merman, are you betraying us by standing with the enemy?"
Jiao Qing's eyebrows shot up as he stared at the fellow, sternly asking.
This fellow was originally one of the thirty-two guards.
He was also considered his subordinate.
He had always been disrespectful to Jiao Qing in Whale Fall City.
"Yo... You still know my name is Jiao Sha? Then you should know that I am also the prince of the Megalodon tribe!
Why can't I be over here? Instead, you... a mere general, dare to call out?
Who here isn't of a nobler status and position than you?"
This little thing stood there and chattered incessantly.
Jiao Qing, it seemed, was not someone who was good with words.
He was rendered speechless by the other party's retort.
"Damn it... I knew I should have smashed his head in earlier!" Chu Xinghe grumbled from behind.
Chu Tian also watched the other party, feeling that speaking out now would lower his status.
If Little Black were here, that guy was an expert at taunting.
Or perhaps Fatty Wang being here would also be good.
