59: East Sea Demon King Yuantai Ling

In the Continent of Gods and Demons, after players enter the water, they are subjected to water pressure just like in reality. However, for players to reach this place, their strength is far beyond that of ordinary people.

With Xiao Xing's current strength, he can dive more than 600 meters without losing health. Any deeper, and he would lose health based on the pressure, and his mobility would also be somewhat hindered.

However, with the recovery from his luck necklace, he can continue down for another 400 meters or so while maintaining full health.

This area of the sea is relatively shallow. If he were to go to the waters near Japan, the seabed would be extremely deep.

The Sea Demon Clan is located about one kilometer deep on the seabed, where his recovery can almost offset the health loss.

But his mobility would be greatly hindered, allowing him to exert only about half his speed. If the Sea Demon Clan were to attack, even he would be in a precarious situation.

As Xiao Xing went deeper, he soon reached the seabed and spotted the palace complex of the Sea Demon Clan.

It was a magnificent complex of palaces. Most of the buildings of the entire clan were cast from gold, appearing brilliant and shimmering.

Seeing the buildings, Xiao Xing couldn't help but roll his eyes. To use the gold of our Human Race to build houses, how truly extravagant.

Soon, he arrived at the main gate of the Sea Demon Clan. The gate was guarded by two soldiers with human bodies and fish tails, holding long spears. They were both Level 60 Great Lord Rank.

Seeing Xiao Xing swim over, they raised their spears and became alert.

"Hmm, a member of the Human Race? This is the territory of our Sea Demon Clan. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to approach."

One soldier, seeing it was a human, immediately raised his spear and looked at Xiao Xing with an unfriendly expression.

This was their clan territory; not just humans, but any monster that dared to approach would be attacked.

It was just like the towns of our Human Race; any wild monsters that dared to approach would be killed by the soldiers.

"Stop! Kid, if you dare take another step closer, don't blame us for being impolite."

Seeing Xiao Xing continue to approach, the other soldier also raised his spear in warning.

They were the ones guarding the gate and would never allow a member of another race to approach, or they would truly take action.

Seeing the warning, Xiao Xing stopped. He currently couldn't afford to ignore Level 60 members of another race.

"I am here on behalf of the Human Race to make friends with you, and I've brought many supplies. I hope you can go and inform your Clan Chief."

Xiao Xing cleared his throat and began to bluff.

He wasn't too worried about them not trading; after all, he really did bring supplies, and gold coins were useless to them.

The main thing now was to find a way to see their Clan Chief; once that happened, things would be easy.

"Kid, do you think we're easy to fool? Our Yao Race has no dealings with the Human Race. Are you a scout sent by the Human Race to gather information?

I think so too. Kid, speak up about your conspiracy, or don't blame us for killing you."

This... Seeing the two soldiers play off each other, Xiao Xing was somewhat speechless.

Can't we just talk properly?

He just wanted to trade for some gold coins and leave; what Human Race conspiracy could there be?

"Big brothers, don't be impulsive. Let me finish speaking."

Seeing the two of them fuming, seemingly ready to strike, he quickly tried to soothe them.

"Speak quickly, or today next year will be the anniversary of your death..." "Damn it!"

Xiao Xing cursed inwardly, then took out some bolts of cloth and said:

"Look at these. I've brought many from the Human Race and want to exchange them for some gold with your Clan Chief. Big brothers, please go and inform her. I won't treat you poorly."

After speaking, Xiao Xing took out some roasted meat and daughters red, handing them over to the two.

Hearing Xiao Xing's words and seeing the wine and meat he handed over, the two couldn't help but exchange a look.

They probably understood Xiao Xing's meaning: he wanted to use supplies to trade for their trash.

However, that trash was all piled up within their clan. They were just gatekeepers and couldn't make such a decision.

"Seeing as you're so sincere, we can help inform her. But whatever the Clan Chief decides has nothing to do with us."

After thinking for a moment and taking the wine and meat Xiao Xing gave them, one of them walked inside, clearly going to report.

But before long, he came back.

"Our Clan Chief said for me to bring you to see her."

The soldier who returned beckoned to Xiao Xing.

Without another word, Xiao Xing quickly entered their barrier. He had been under immense water pressure and felt very uncomfortable.

After entering the barrier, all the pressure vanished completely. It was just like being on land, without any obstruction.

Led by the gatekeeper, they soon reached a central palace. This palace was significantly taller and grander than the others.

When he entered the palace, a magnificent hall came into view. The hall was decorated with various ornaments, including Moonlight Beads, various giant shells, pearls, and more.

In the center of the hall was a set of emerald tables and chairs. On a jade chair next to the table sat a dignified, elegant, and beautiful woman.

"Reporting to the Clan Chief, I have brought him."

Upon seeing the woman, the soldier cupped his hands and bowed.

"Mhm, you may leave first."

Hearing the report, the woman took a sip of tea from a jade cup. She didn't look at the two of them, but spoke in a faint, clear voice.

"I just obtained this jade nectar. Why don't you come and taste it with me?"

After the soldier left, the woman took out a jade cup. She didn't look at Xiao Xing but began to pour the jade nectar into the cup.

However, from her words, it seemed she wanted Xiao Xing to taste the jade nectar she had just obtained.

Xiao Xing took a deep breath and walked over.

He had observed briefly just now; this woman was named [East Sea Yao King — Yuantai Ling], Level 60 Divine-Grade.

What she was pouring into the cup was immortal spirit jade nectar. Consuming it adds +1 to all attributes, limited to 100 drops per person.

In his previous life, Xiao Xing had only heard on the forums that gold coins could be traded here. He hadn't expected this Clan Chief to be a Divine-Grade figure.

System Notification: You have consumed one drop of immortal spirit jade nectar, all attributes +1.

System Notification: You have consumed one drop of immortal spirit jade nectar, all attributes +1.

System Notification: You have consumed one drop of immortal spirit jade nectar, all attributes +1... Xiao Xing didn't stand on ceremony. After sitting down, he picked up the cup and downed it in one go.

Ten consecutive System notification sounds rang out. He had increased his all-attribute stats by 10 points. Combined with the percentage bonus from his equipment, his all-attribute stats had increased by 20 points in an instant, which was absolutely terrifying.

"Does it taste good?"

Seeing Xiao Xing down it in one go, Yuantai Ling rolled her eyes and asked.

She had originally wanted Xiao Xing to share this extremely rare delicacy with her. She didn't expect this guy to just drink it all at once; it would be a miracle if he could even taste it.

"Not bad, my strength has improved quite a bit."

Xiao Xing put down the cup and smiled. He did think it tasted quite good, but whether in reality or in the game, he wasn't used to savoring things slowly.

However, he wouldn't gorge himself either; he was just normal and didn't feel the need to change his habits deliberately.
