Chapter 1271: White Sh.e.l.l Royal City
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Sea Demon Royal City, the holy land in the hearts of all sea demons.
At this moment, it was right before Han Fei’s eyes.
Here was another trench.
Looking from the outside, the trench seemed to be very wide. The crack seemed to be hundreds of kilometers away. The depth from the surface of the sea to the trench was nearly 80 kilometers. The depth from the trench to the Royal City was about 20 kilometers.
In such a case, the depth from the sea surface to the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City was a hundred kilometers.
This meant that even peak-level Hidden Fishers wouldn’t be able to discover a magnificent city under their feet when they pa.s.sed by the sea.
When Han Fei entered the trench, it was as if he had entered some sort of seal. He immediately discovered that there was something wrong with the pressure here.
When he came down from the trench, the water pressure suddenly became countless times lighter. This feeling was the same as when he was hundreds of meters under the sea.
Han Fei was confused. What was that?
The old turtle said, “What’s the big deal? With a king guarding this area, he can seal the entire trench. You can regard this place as the surface of the sea. The further you go down, the more pressure there will be.”
Han Fei didn’t speak. Changshui Qin had already left. When he just entered the trench, his perception had already scanned him. When Han Fei took a closer look, he found that at the entrance of the trench, about a kilometer deep, there were two huge stone turtles lying on the left and right side. Each of them was more than 300 meters long and was still alive.
The old turtle roared, “d.a.m.n it! How dare he make my clansmen guard the door? This king deserves to die!”
Han Fei said contemptuously, “Hey, hey! What are you talking about? You turtles are of different species. When did they become your clansmen?”
The old turtle said, “I am the strongest powerhouse of the Turtle Clan. Why can’t I be the ancestor of the Turtle Clan?”
Han Fei scoffed. “Don’t brag. If another big turtle surpa.s.ses the Emperor Realm, it may step through the void and kill you.”
The old turtle snorted. “What do you know? Those stronger than me should be dead…”
Realizing that he had said something wrong, the old turtle suddenly stopped speaking.
Han Fei frowned. Those stronger than the old turtle should have been dead?
But the old turtle had once said that one could live forever when he becomes an emperor, and fuse with the Dao when he becomes G.o.d.
This meant that, as far as the old turtle knew, there were at least two levels above the King.
Han Fei vaguely guessed that there must have been big secrets he didn’t know. How big a thing must have happened to make the G.o.ds die?
However, these secrets weren’t easy to figure out. It involved too much history! Before the Age of Doom, there might have been a longer history.
Han Fei swam all the way to the Royal City.
As he recalled, the Royal City was at the center of the sea, about 3,000 kilometers away.
Because this trench didn’t reach the bottom all at once and had a downward slope, Han Fei saw a large number of luminous creatures.
After walking a hundred kilometers, Han Fei found that most of the creatures here were luminous. Even the most common seaweed was luminous seaweed. There were schools of fish, sh.e.l.ls, crabs, starfish, conchs, sea anemones, sea cuc.u.mbers, and jellyfish… There were too many varieties of them to count.
These creatures were not strong.
Han Fei even saw a large number of creatures that had just awakened who had just gained consciousness.
They seemed to be used to the appearance of strong masters. Therefore, they were not afraid at all. After all, strong masters would not be so idle as to attack them.
Continuing forward, the creatures Han Fei encountered became stronger and stronger. From the ordinary creatures at the beginning, to the sea beasts such as flood snakes, giant seals, squid, royal ribbons, and giant snails, there were countless of them.
These creatures didn’t seem to have any territorial awareness, nor did they dare to have any.
In Han Fei’s memory, these creatures could appear outside the Royal City because they were specially searched and brought back. They also needed to go through some training, battles, and killing…
After repeated eliminations, the strong of them would have a chance to enter the Royal City.
When Han Fei returned to the city, he changed into the clothes of the Fish Dragon King and put on an ident.i.ty sign that belonged to him. This sign was actually a Demon Heritage-level sign.
In the Sea Demon Royal City, people below the Venerable level were not judged by strength, but their demonic heritage.
Those who saw Han Fei’s purple waist tag immediately backed off. This was a top Heavenly Talent with an above level-7 demonic heritage, one of the highest ranks in the Royal City.
In particular, some creatures who could tell that Han Fei’s waist tag was a level-eight, low-quality spiritual heritage dared not stand in his way at all.
When he came all the way to the Royal City, the strongest person Han Fei had seen was only at the peak of the Sea Spirit Realm. There were no creatures at the Dao Seeking realm still wandering outside the Royal City.
At this moment, Han Fei looked at the mountain in amazement.
This place was s.h.i.+ning!
The White Sh.e.l.l Royal City was not big. It was only about 50 kilometers long. However, the construction of the Royal City was extremely magnificent.
The archway that was tens of thousands of meters long and thousands of meters high had the words “White Sh.e.l.l Royal City” written on it. Han Fei felt his eyes ache after taking a few more glances at it.
He had experienced this feeling when he explored the Fiery Mountain, the strongest secret realm in the level-two fishery.
These words were a great technique. His Million Knife Art and Ten Thousand Knives in One were deduced from the line of words in the Fiery Mountain.
Although Han Fei really wanted to deduce the technique of the four words too, if he stayed at the door for so long, someone would definitely notice him.
And now, the last thing Han Fei wanted was to be noticed. If he could keep a low profile and make no one notice him, that would be great.
Besides, there was a row of shrimp soldiers and crab generals guarding at the gate of the city. Every thousand meters, there would be one group, and there were a total of ten groups. If he stood there and looked at the words, would they think he was an idiot?
Although the archway was ten thousand meters long, what was more impressive than the archway were two pillars, which were made of blue jade, a hundred meters thick, and a thousand meters high.
On the pillars on the left and right, the words “Secrets of Heaven and Earth” and “Waterfall Hidden Dragon City” were respectively written.
The two pillars stood on both sides like two big lights. The pillar-shaped luminous pearls illuminated the surroundings. Han Fei landed here and saw the two squads of shrimp soldiers and crab generals bowing to him but didn’t say anything.
After all, they were just the guards at the gate who changed s.h.i.+fts. Even if they wanted to, they couldn’t greet you at work, right?
Holding the usual pride of the Fish Dragon King, Han Fei simply ignored these shrimp soldiers and crab generals. He didn’t even nod at them.
This gate tower was actually equivalent to a portal.
Outside the gate, only vague scenes of the Royal City could be seen. In fact, the Royal City was surrounded by a mist.
When Han Fei stepped into the gate tower, he suddenly saw a magnificent palace. A thousand meters above the waters was a s.p.a.ce where sea beasts and jellyfish lived.
Among them, there were powerful jellyfish that were like gigantic light bulbs. Their bodies emitted rays of various colors, illuminating the entire Royal City.
And the roof of the ancient building that seemed to be made of gold almost blinded Han Fei’s eyes. This made Han Fei immediately think of Master Hexagon. If he saw it, he must love this place to death. He wondered what animal the king of the Royal City was.
…
In another sea area, in a palace, there were brilliant and dazzling stones piled up. A big starfish with six tentacles was lying on this pile of “treasures”. Who else could it be other than the Hexagon Starfish?
Around the starfish, a big octopus was ma.s.saging the starfish’s tentacles, and a Clam Girl was standing next to the starfish. Occasionally, when the starfish raised his tentacles, the Clam Girl would hold up the jar in her hand and pour a dark green liquid down.
Swis.h.!.+
All of a sudden, the six tentacles of the starfish lit up, and the starfish s.h.i.+vered and mumbled, “Why a breakthrough again? Alas, I’m going to consolidate my strength again. When will it end?”
…
Han Fei looked at the splendid palace, which looked a bit like the Dragon Palace on TV dramas, as if there were all kinds of treasures hidden here.
However, the fish bones and seaweed ornaments inlaid with gold were too styled, which made Han Fei return to reality.
Han Fei looked to the right, stepped in the air, and flew to his cave. It was the Fish Dragon King’s home, and many of his belongings were kept there.
Unlike the outer waters, there was no such thing as stealing in the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City. If you were strong enough, you could steal what you wanted, but if you were discovered, you would be permanently exiled from the Royal City.
In the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City, anyone could go to the trial secret realm to get what they wanted instead of stealing it. Therefore, the cave abodes of every family here had a specific array. Once the array showed abnormal signs, someone would immediately discover it. Then, it would be impossible for the intruder to escape.
The 50 kilometer-large area could accommodate 100,000 people.
Apart from those who lived above the capital as light bulbs, there were even fewer people in the city.
However, when Han Fei arrived at his… no, when he arrived at the residence of the Fish Dragon King, he found dozens of people waiting at the entrance of his residence.
Han Fei’s heart did a flip. What’s going on? Why are they blocking the door?
