"This second main medicine is no longer a concern; as long as we can find the first one, all problems will be solved!" Ling Mo Xie smiled and said confidently.
Izumo King was surprised but did not ask Ling Mo Xie anything further, simply nodding in acknowledgment.
Ling Mo Xie did not linger any longer and immediately bid farewell to Izumo King before hurrying away.
Upon exiting the Palace, Ling Mo Xie summoned Xiao Peng and headed towards the ocean indicated on the map.
As expected, Xiao Peng was indeed fast. Within half a day, they could already hear the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs from a distance. Hearing this sound brought a smile to Ling Mo Xie's face; if they traveled with Xiao Peng, they would still make it in time. He just hoped for a bit of good luck in successfully finding Dragon Snake Grass.
Soon, the vast blue ocean appeared before them, with huge white waves continuously surging, making one marvel at the power of nature. Even cultivators seemed somewhat weak in the face of such force; after all, cultivators merely borrowed the power of nature!
Ling Mo Xie silently prayed to find Dragon Snake Grass on this cliff and flew towards the cliff that was close to the sea.
The cliff stood almost at a ninety-degree angle to the waves below, its surface smoothed by relentless crashing waves. Only a few green plants grew sporadically on it, and the cliff seemed endless when he looked in both directions.
"I'll help you too! Let's search separately!" Hong Chi saw Ling Mo Xie fly down from Xiao Peng's broad back towards the cliff and quickly called out to him. He transformed into a flame and instantly disappeared from Xiao Peng's back, reappearing before the cliff in a flash.
Seeing Hong Chi's actions, Ling Mo Xie nodded and began searching earnestly.
Although Hong Chi was a Fire Spirit, he could not cultivate or possess any cultivation level. He could only harness the power of flames to tap into his potential, so he could not fly but had to rely on fire to move through the air.
The two split up to search both ends of the cliff, with Xiao Peng flapping its wings and also moving closer to assist in the search.
The cliff towered over a hundred feet high. Although they were cultivators, it was impossible for them to see everything at once. They had to fly up and down repeatedly, which exhausted them considerably. Ling Mo Xie was not too worried; he had a small Spiritual Energy pool that could afford this luxury once or twice.
However, Hong Chi was different. As a Fire Spirit relying on flame power, he was significantly weakened here due to the proximity to the ocean and rising humidity. His strength diminished further as he expended energy flying with flames.
Not long after they separated to search, Ling Mo Xie heard a scream and quickly flew toward Hong Chi's direction. He couldn't think of anyone else being here besides himself and Hong Chi; after all, this cliff was quite remote, and even cultivators usually avoided it unless necessary.
Worried about Hong Chi's safety, Ling Mo Xie used Floating Shadow and soon reached near Hong Chi.
Before him, Hong Chi was struggling against a terrifying giant beast from the sea. The beast resembled a fish but was enormous with a fierce appearance and exposed fangs. When it roared, a wave of foul odor rushed toward them, and its tongue flicked around trying to ensnare Hong Chi.
Fortunately, although Hong Chi was suppressed by the environment, he was not defenseless and managed to evade the sea creature's attacks. However, continuing like this would not be sustainable.
The scream just now must have been Hong Chi instinctively reacting to the sudden attack from the sea beast.
Ling Mo Xie habitually used a Detection Skill to gather information.
Mist Fish (Demon Beast): Level: One hundred and fifteen. Skills: Mirage, Giant Fish Leap, Command Fish...
A Demon Beast over a hundred levels already possesses numerous skills. Even though Ling Mo Xie is also over a hundred levels, he cannot fully uncover their skill weaknesses; the Detection Skill is starting to lag behind.
Upon seeing the information about Mist Fish, Ling Mo Xie realized that there are indeed Demon Beasts in the sea.
This makes sense; if the birds and beasts of this world can be Demon Beasts, why can't the fish in the sea be as well?
Moreover, based on his knowledge from his previous life, Ling Mo Xie judged that there should be even more formidable Demon Beasts in the sea compared to those on land. After all, isn't that dragon also a Demon Beast of the sea?
There was no time for Ling Mo Xie to think too much. After gathering information on Mist Fish, he quickly rushed forward.
They were at sea, and Hong Chi alone might not be able to handle this creature!
The Mist Fish seemed to sense the threat. Seeing Ling Mo Xie rushing over, it commanded countless fish to leap out of the water and charge toward him.
Among them, some fish appeared to be low-level Demon Beasts, their eyes glowing red as they unleashed water swords and ice blades towards Ling Mo Xie.
As the attacks approached, Ling Mo Xie remained unfazed and continued charging toward Hong Chi and the Mist Fish.
Just when those not-so-bright low-level Demon Beasts showed a hint of human-like joy, thinking they would hit Ling Mo Xie with their water swords and ice blades, suddenly a spark flashed before their numerous attacks, and Ling Mo Xie had already vanished.
This was the Flame Clone skill. Being a skill from the System, it was unaffected by the sea surface. Ling Mo Xie successfully arrived beside Hong Chi.
“Boss, how capable is this strange fish? What should we do?”
Seeing Ling Mo Xie arrive next to him, Hong Chi turned to ask.
With a wicked smile curling at the corners of his mouth, Ling Mo Xie replied, “What else can we do? We fight! I don't believe that between the two of us, we can't take down this Mist Fish! And look! It’s too late to run now!”
Ling Mo Xie pointed at the various low-level Demon Beasts surrounding the two of them.
The Mist Fish had turned to summon Demon Beasts, trapping them.
Fortunately, the Mist Fish could only command Demon Beasts that were thirty levels lower than itself. Although there were many, their combat power was...
"Watch me!" Seeing those low-level fish Demon Beasts foolishly attacking him, Hong Chi frowned and said confidently.
As soon as he finished speaking, a red cloud floated down from the sky, and fiery rain began to fall like raindrops onto those Demon Beasts. Many of the Demon Beasts were almost instantly charred under this fiery rain, emitting a scent like grilled fish!
"Roar!" The Mist Fish, seeing this scene, let out an angry roar and its tongue lashed out towards Hong Chi.
Ling Mo Xie naturally would not stand by and watch. With a grim expression, he threw a Frostfall at the Mist Fish. The completely black Mist Fish, with its slick body, was instantly covered in a layer of ice crystals, its speed began to slow down, and its Health Points continuously decreased!
Seizing the opportunity presented by the sudden drop in speed of the Mist Fish, Hong Chi ignored the low-level fish Demon Beasts and focused intently. A three-colored flame floated towards the Mist Fish. When the flame was in the air, it was still small.
But once it landed on the Mist Fish, it ignited like it had encountered gasoline, instantly rising up into a massive fire that engulfed the part of the Mist Fish above water. Moreover, the sea above it was also ablaze with a fierce Three-Colored Flame!
"Yay!" Ultimately just a child, Hong Chi, seeing that the Mist Fish had been hit, cheered and looked at Ling Mo Xie, saying, "Boss! I think this Mist Fish is nothing special!"
"Be careful!" However, Ling Mo Xie shouted at Hong Chi, pointing behind him. The fiery-eyed Mist Fish, filled with hatred, lashed its slimy tongue towards Hong Chi.
At this moment, it was too late for Hong Chi to defend himself. In his panic, Ling Mo Xie could only hastily cast a skill called Summon Wood to Form an Army.
But then he couldn't help but feel regret; how could he forget that they were on the sea? Would this skill even be useful?
Perhaps due to some unseen rules of the System, or perhaps because of Ling Mo Xie's good luck.
In any case, when the skill Summon Wood to Form an Army landed on the Mist Fish, it actually took effect.
He saw that a seed had somehow landed on the skin of the Mist Fish. With that skill activated, in no time at all—almost in the blink of an eye—the seed grew into a large tree. It sprouted arms and legs made of branches that reached out and pulled back the tongue of the Mist Fish.
At this moment, under Ling Mo Xie's reminder, Hong Chi had already turned around. Seeing that the tongue of the now-close-by Mist Fish was being pulled back, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Then came a surge of anger, with flames of various shapes and colors flying towards the Mist Fish.
Ling Mo Xie also commanded the wooden soldier to deliver a series of blows to the Mist Fish.
"Roar!" The Mist Fish let out a furious roar, ready to unleash a powerful move, but was interrupted by a strong skill from Ling Mo Xie.
After several rounds of this, the Mist Fish's Health Points steadily decreased. Ling Mo Xie smiled; it was almost certain now.
Just as Ling Mo Xie and Hong Chi were smiling and preparing to speed up the defeat of the Mist Fish, the Mist Fish suddenly shook its head violently, sending countless waves crashing towards Ling Mo Xie and Hong Chi, forcing them to temporarily dodge.
They were also puzzled about what the Mist Fish was trying to achieve by creating these waves. Even if it intended to escape, the waves would only last for a short while, and Ling Mo Xie and Hong Chi could easily catch up.
As Ling Mo Xie had anticipated, the waves quickly subsided. He hurriedly looked in the direction of the Mist Fish.
To his shock, he found a cliff before him, and the tail of the Mist Fish was already disappearing over the edge.
Seeing the Mist Fish, Ling Mo Xie had no time to think about what was happening. He unleashed a Flying Immortal Sword along with several sword skills that struck the Mist Fish.
"Ding!" A light sound echoed, and a system notification rang in Ling Mo Xie's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations! You leveled up!" He had only gained one level, but several streams of light instantly flew into Ling Mo Xie's backpack; it seemed he had dropped some good items.
