Towards Eternity
Ch 542's. Three Beast Sea
In the boat. Everyone gathered and was enjoying their dinner, except for Weng Lou who was currently in the control room and was piloting the ship so that they would not get lost.
The giant claw of the crab that was killed by Weng Lou this afternoon was made into a soup that is very suitable to their current environmental conditions are cloudy.
*Surpp...* A gulp sounded from the control room as Weng Lou finished the soup in his bowl.
"Ah...although their cuisine is not very great, but this is already quite delicious. It's a pity that I didn't find such spices on Black Sand Island in the Huwa Islands. If there is, the aroma of this soup can continue to smell even though it has been eaten," said Weng Lou who stared at the bowl in front of him.
He then arranged for the rudder of the ship to remain straight, before then going out and looking at the very dark night sky without the slightest hint of starlight or moonlight. The clouds covered the entire sky above them so that the only source of light was just a giant lantern that Choi had made and placed on top of the control room.
Weng Lou could see the sea around the ship for up to twenty meters, more than that he could not see it clearly.
Fortunately the waters in the Dead Sea were extremely calm ever since they had managed to kill a giant crab with strength in the previous stage 1 Soul Unification realm. But Weng Lou suspected that this was the calm before the big storm. To that end, he wanted all of his crew to be able to rest as much as possible before they faced the raging storm that was soon to happen.

At the bottom of the ocean, a fifteen-meter-long hammerhead shark swam quietly into a trough so dark that light from the surface could not even reach it.
Even so, though, the hammerhead shark was able to swim without hitting any coral or creatures and continued to move down until five minutes later he reached the bottom and found a very large cave and saw some fish much smaller than him with a mouth filled with sharp teeth swimming around the cave.
The shark swam closer and at once dozens of sharp-toothed fish in that place blocked it and exposed their sharp teeth to the hammerhead shark. There was not the slightest fear when they confronted the shark even though their body size was not comparable to that shark, it was even seen that the hammerhead shark was shivering in fear when dozens of small fish confronted him.
"Stop, don't scare him." A very deep and heavy voice sounded from inside the cave and made the mouth of the cave tremble because of the sound.
Hearing the sound, the small fish immediately disperse and let the hammerhead shark pass and enter the cave. The hammerhead shark looked to his right and left, where a large pile of bones lay on the ground as well as several pieces of gold coins glittering in the dark, joining together with the pile of bones.
The more it goes in, the bones and gold coins on the ground are increasing more and more until then, the, the shark reached the end of the cave where there was a giant room containing a small hill created from a pile of jewelry and gold coins, as well as various other shiny items.
Next to that hill, a larger hill was formed from a pile of various kinds of bones living creatures in an incomplete condition.
The temperature in the interior of this cave is so cold that it makes the hammerhead shark feel cold. He trembled in fear as a fiery red eye emerged from the dark cave ceiling. The shark did not dare to look into those eyes and just looked down while trembling in half-dead fear.
"What brought you here? Is it a human you've previously found?" The same heavy voice as before came back from the direction of those red eyes.
The pile of jewels and bones that were in the room moved violently as the sound rang out, even seeming to fall consoled to the ground at any moment.
The hammerhead shark shook its head in response to the question, "Ti-No."
"Hm? A different person? Have you drowned the ship?" This time, another voice sounded from the direction of the Yanga bone pile and there. Although his figure was invisible, but the shark was immediately filled with anxiety when the voice sounded.
"No, we didn't succeed because we failed to catch up. The ship had no sails at all, but it could move very fast. And also.....Mr. Juxie had already managed to catch up to him when the ship entered his territory, however....." The shark stopped the story while recalling the scene of a giant crab body falling from the boat and being witnessed by himself with his own eyes.
Hearing the shark stop telling the story, another voice emerged from within the pile of gold and jewels, "However? Did that stupid crab get hurt after sinking that ship? Or what? Don't tell half!"
The voice exclaimed furiously and instantly made the pile of gold and various kinds of sparkling objects collapse and revealed a giant eel head whose body was inside the ground. The head of the eel is twice as big as the body of the hammerhead shark.
"Tu-Master Juxie! She'sdead.....I found his body falling from the boat in a terrible condition. The insides of his body seemed to have been ruffled, and the two claws also disappeared, seemingly taken by the people on board the ship...." The shark's voice slowly shrank as he explained everything he knew and he slightly raised his head to see the reaction of the three creatures in front of him.
"What?! Die?! No kidding! I can't even just smash that dirty shell that stupid crab has! Even when fighting against humans back then he had not sustained many injuries due to his extremely hard shell!" The large eel behind the pile of gold looked incredulous, while the figure on the ceiling that only looked at his eyes seemed to be thinking of something serious.
"Where's body? Did you manage to secure it?" The voice of the creature on the ceiling of the cave asked the shark and was immediately replied with a nod, "Yes, I managed to secure it and put it in my nest to avoid the other animals' targets."
"Good, good thing you got it. At least I can make that stupid whale hold back his emotions. Now tell me where the ship is at this time? I'll go and drown him and tear apart the man who killed Jungxie."
"Before I managed to follow them up to the border of the territory belonging to Mr. Jungxie, after which I did not follow him the song out of fear that some of the other Masters were angry with me for entering their territory. According to my estimation, the ship was moving in the direction where the ship was coming to this region."
"That means they have a relationship with that woman. It's much better, we can all just move on and kill them all at once" the eel said happily.
"Wait duku. What about the pope? Who's gonna tell him?" ask the voice inside the pile of bones.
"Ah, there's someone else from us who's gone to tell Mr. Ju. He should have gotten the same information as I told Master in this place." The hammerhead shark spoke calmly and felt proud as he worked nimble and fast.
But he did not realize that the eye gazes of the three monstrous creatures in front of him were currently staring at him furiously and a murderous lust was coming out from within their bodies.
"FUCKING FOOL!!! YOU MADE THAT WHALE KNOW BEFORE US?! DO YOU WANT THAT DAMN WHALE TO DESTROY THE NESTS IN THIS REGION?!"
From that ceiling, a terrifying figure appeared and roared furiously at the shark. A round mouth larger than the shark's body was wide open and revealed a mouth filled with sharp teeth.
The figure of the creature on the ceiling was an octopus with a body that even filled the entire sky of the room in the cave. Tentacles are seen sticking around the cave passage and one of them is currently gripping the hammerhead shark tightly.
"Please forgive me, my lord! I was wrong! Please give your servant a chance!" The shark pitifully tries to escape the grasp of the octopus tentacle, but the more he fights the tentacle the more it coils around until his entire body is out of sight.
The tentacle moved directly into the octopus' mouth, and the hammerhead shark was pressed round.
Watching that, the figure of an eel whose body was in the earth realm started to move out and snorted furiously.
"The fool, he made things complicated" said the eel immediately went out of the cave and was followed by the octopus.
Not long, though, the pile of bones that formed the hill in the cave began to fall and showed a long snout of a large fish whose canine teeth were sticking out and showed some bones stuck between its teeth.
His figure swam out of the cave and revealed his entire body which made his identity revealed. He was a barracuda with a very long and large body. The length of his body was almost equal to the length of the giant eel that was there. He quickly exited the cave and soon arrived beside the huge octopus that had already come out first.
"We have to hurry, if the damn whale arrives first from us, then everything will be troublesome for us" said the octopus.
Led by the octopus, they all moved towards the ship Weng Lou group was currently in. It could be seen that their speed was much different from the speed of the ferocious beasts that had attempted to chase after Weng Lou's group earlier.
Their current speed was faster than the speed of the Weng Lou steamship and would soon be able to catch up with them.

Nightfall, in the waters of the Dead Sea.
"Hey, you feel it?" Black Ape Fighter asked Weng Lou who was now standing in the middle of the deck of the ship while closing his eyes.
Weng Lou opened his eyes and looked towards the Black Ape Fighter who had just exited from inside the ship. He spoke in a serious voice to her, "Yes, and they were moving at a terrifying speed. They'll be here soon."
Weng Lou's eyes stared in one direction and he immediately walked into the control room and took out the bundle of cloth he had hidden behind the wooden floor. The package was opened, and showed two twin swords which were weapons made by Weng Lou yesterday. According to him, this was the time he used both of these new weapons.
Weng Lou calmly walked out of the control room while carrying the twin swords in his hands. On his back, there was a bag full of arrows which was also his own making. These were all preparations he had made to face the danger within the Dead Sea.
The eyes of the Black Ape Fighter were fixated for a moment on the two swords in Weng Lou's hand and he laughed softly looking at it. "So that's what you did yesterday? Not like a weapon that suits you," he said, who had grasped a knife that matched the size of his body.
This knife was made by Weng Lou. He made it after making all the arrows for his weapon. He himself actually felt dissatisfied with the knife in the Black Ape Fighter's hand, according to him this knife is more suitable to be called a toothpick.
"You sure you want to use that? Have you ever used a gun before?" Weng Lou asked the Black Ape Fighter while rising above his head.
"You're mocking me? Even if it is just a beast, I have a little skill for forging. I even made an axe when I was still living free!" said the Black Ape Fighter who was like he was proud of himself.
"Yes yes, I believe you."
"Ck, you obviously don't believe me."
The two then ended their conversation, as the ship they boarded suddenly shook violently.
"What's going on?" Weng Lou looked solemn as he looked around the ship.
The huge lanterns on board showed an enormous shadow figure just passing under their ship and was the main cause that made their ship tremble just now. Weng Lou picked up one of the arrows on his back and swung a root at the end and threw it high into the air.
*BOMM!!!* A small explosion occurred and a blinding light instantly shone brightly making everything within a radius of two hundred meters clearly visible.
However, the mouths of Weng Lou and the Black Ape Fighter immediately opened wide as the light revealed a giant creature that was in front of their ship and was opening its mouth wide, ready to swallow it whole.
"STOP THE ENGINE!!!! BACK OFF THE SHIP!!!!" Weng Lou shouted quickly as he watched the sea water moving in very quickly into the large mouth.
They must be able to escape from the mouth, or else they will all be swallowed alive by it.
