Chapter 375: 375: Changes in the Deep Sea

In his opinion, as a noble fleet commander, he really had nothing in common with these two crude adventurers.

If it wasn’t for searching for Hua Xia’s people, he wouldn’t have shared a drink with them. If his colleagues saw this, they would surely laugh at him.

After settling the bill, Ya Xuan said to them, “Do your jobs well and gather more useful information. The Empire will not forget your contributions.”

“Understood, understood. Thank you for your support, sir!”

Ya Xuan left the bar with his hands behind his back. The next moment, he left the Dimensional Universe and returned to the control center of the War Fortress.

“Did you find anything?”

“Scanning now, sir….”

The green-haired girl was using the life scanner to conduct a round of scanning.

Her first target was Yan Qiyue. Ya Xuan said his realm should be the Satellite Stage. After setting the realm to the Satellite Stage, no matter how they scanned, there were only eight Satellite Stage individuals on Earth.

“Sir, it’s possible that our life scanner isn’t advanced enough. As you know, some Martial Artists know secret techniques to hide their true strength. If we use the scanner from Sky City, perhaps we can find the person we’re looking for.”

“Using the scanner from Sky City?” Ya Xuan thought for a moment and shook his head. “Let’s forget about that for now. If I go to Sky City now, Miss Diana would surely berate me for not doing well in the battle. I don’t want to be scolded. Let’s look for Lin Zhen first.”

The green-haired girl nodded, “Do we start scanning from the Star Realm?”

“No, the Quasi-Star Realm. Focus on scanning the Bermuda area.”

“As you wish, my commander.”

On the scanner, the blue Earth began to zoom in, locking on an area of 3,000 kilometers around the Bermuda Islands.

Scanning the Quasi-Star Realm began, and a light circle enveloped the area, quickly moving back and forth above the ocean.

“Sir, the scan is complete, nothing detected. There are no human beings in this area.”

“Impossible! Those two have no guts to deceive me with false information.”

The green-haired girl felt wronged, “Sir, but the life scanner didn’t show anything.”

Ya Xuan contemplated for a moment, “Ah, right. Lin Zhen should be under the sea. I heard that they fought for the Cloud-climbing Vine fruits there before. Let the life scanner extend downward, scanning below the sea surface. Set the initial depth… 5,000 meters.”

Scanning deeper meant consuming more energy. After a while, the 5,000-meter depth was searched, and no one was found.

“Could it be that Lin Zhen has already dived below 5,000 meters? Keep scanning at a depth of 8,000 meters.”

The scanning light ring began to enter deep water and gradually descend. Within this range, anyone present wouldn’t be able to avoid the scanner.

However, the result at 8,000 meters remained the same, no trace of any person was found.

“I refuse to believe it, scan one last time at 10,000 meters!” Ya Xuan was furious.

Scanning began at 10,000 meters, and still, no one was found.

Now, Ya Xuan couldn’t help but doubt if there were really people there.

The green-haired girl thought for a moment, “Sir, if you really doubt this area, you can go to Sky City to retrieve the satellite images of this place from a few days ago. Sky City’s technology is more advanced than ours. As long as we have satellite images, we can see if there were people here a few days ago.”

Ya Xuan shook his head slightly, “I can’t go there yet. Keep scanning one last time, scan all the way to the seabed. I don’t believe Lin Zhen can avoid us completely.”

Glug, glug!

A string of bubbles came out from Lin Zhen’s mouth, disappearing into the deep ocean’s darkness.

Looking up, the surroundings were pitch black, without a trace of light.

Here, at a depth of 9,000 meters in the deep sea, even large fish species couldn’t survive. Possibly, no human footprint had ever touched this place since the planet’s birth.

Swimming to the Cloud-climbing Vine, Lin Zhen picked a green fruit.

Without any delay, Lin Zhen absorbed it on the spot.

The Dark Star energy within him ran, and after the green fruit was absorbed, the Wind Element infused into the Dark Star.

At this moment, in addition to the Light Quantum he had resonated with, other Dark Gold-colored gold atoms, black earth atoms, blue water atoms, and green wind atoms gathered inside the Dark Star. Lin Zhen currently had no time to resonate with them one by one, so he allowed the elemental energy to temporarily stay inside the Dark Star until he had collected them all before starting to resonate.

“Indeed, the further I go into the deep sea, the easier it is to find these fruits. I have already found the fourth one within two days. I now possess Gold, Water, Earth, and Wind Elemental Fruits. Collecting Thunder and Fire will complete the set.”

“However, my Spiritual Power seems to be having a hard time.”

Inside Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Consciousness Sea, his Diamond Level spiritual power struggled to withstand the deep sea’s water pressure, especially the 5% Dark Gold portion, which became his weak point.

“If I had enough time, I could stay here for another three months, and I believe all my remaining Dark Gold spiritual power would turn into Diamond Level. But I don’t have that much time.”

He knew that the people from the Tianhe Empire had arrived. Through his efforts, the first wave of attacks wouldn’t cause too much damage to the people of Earth.

However, after the first wave of attacks, the people of the Tianhe Empire would surely, like in the previous life, focus on capturing them!

Half of the Heavenly Star List experts from his previous life were directly captured.

In this life, he believed that the other party would never let him go. Perhaps the pursuers would come at any moment.

As Lin Zhen was resting, he saw a white halo descend directly from the sky above.

“This is the scanning light! They are looking for me!”

Lin Zhen was startled. In the deep sea, while his spiritual power was under such tremendous pressure, he couldn’t simultaneously open the foldable space. He could only go deeper into the sea.

Ignoring the immense pressure of the seawater, Lin Zhen brought up a trail of water and headed straight for the deep sea.

A sudden burst of pain came from his head, and his mental pressure skyrocketed.

9,300 meters…

9,500 meters…

9,800 meters…

Lin Zhen gritted his teeth and resolutely rushed down to 10,000 meters.

“Ah! I can’t take it anymore!” Lin Zhen covered his head with both hands. His mental power was on the verge of collapse!

Lin Zhen almost wanted to move back up, but Xiao Nuan swam over, bit his clothes, and gave a slight tug, helping him regain some clarity.

The scanning light swept past him and didn’t continue down.

“That was close…”

Lin Zhen’s mind recovered a bit, and he watched the scanning light leave with a palpitation. If he had been scanned, the pursuers would quickly arrive.

“I can’t give up like this. The other party might scan again. If I can’t withstand the pressure of 10,000 meters of seawater, I won’t be able to survive the next scan.”

Lin Zhen forcefully cheered himself up. A tempting scent came from the side.

He turned to see a white fruit floating on the Cloud-climbing Vine.

“The Thunder element energy fruit, this one is really full. With it, my Lightning atoms can resonate.”

Lin Zhen’s spirits were lifted, and he plucked the Thunder element fruit.

“There’s no time. I need to absorb it right away.”

This type of fruit can’t be stored. Lin Zhen immediately began a new round of absorption.

Lightning power is divided into Lightning Ions, Lighting Photons, and Lightning Atoms. The final Lightning Atoms are the most basic part of Lightning power, a combination of speed and strength.

The golden Lightning Atoms were also absorbed into the Dark Star, and hastily gathered together.

If he left the deep sea and went back to the surface, he could resonate all these elemental energies. But he didn’t have the time or the opportunity.

He was still missing the last kind, the Fire element. Lin Zhen didn’t want to leave any regrets for himself.

But the Fire element fruit is the most difficult to find. It’s because this is the deep sea, water and fire are incompatible, and the Fire element fruit basically won’t grow in water.

If he wanted to find one, he could only go to the roots of the Cloud-climbing Vine, close to the Earth’s core magma. Maybe he could find it there.

“But can my spiritual power endure until I reach the roots? There must be at least a thousand or even two thousand meters’ distance.”

Lin Zhen’s headache hadn’t subsided, and the scanning light from above covered him again.

With no choice, Lin Zhen could only force himself to go further down, even if it meant risking his life.

This time, he didn’t care about much else and went straight to the bottom of the sea.

The scanning light behind him was almost chasing Lin Zhen’s feet downwards. Lin Zhen plunged into the mud at the roots of the Cloud-climbing Vine, barely escaping the scanner.

An immense pressure of seawater surged in, and Lin Zhen’s mind was in a daze. He only felt a fiery-red fruit in the mud beside him. He grabbed it and placed it in his Dantian before falling into unconsciousness.

Xiao Nuan had been following Lin Zhen the whole time, transformed into a miniature animal shape, floating above Lin Zhen’s body, helping him withstand most of the water pressure.

They were now 12,000 meters deep in the sea. The immense pressure of the seawater was beyond the limits of Xiao Nuan’s endurance.

Under Xiao Nuan’s protection, Lin Zhen’s Dantian pulsed with the energy of six elements intertwined with the completed Light Quantum, undergoing strange changes.

Inside his Dantian, the purple energy that had formed the Dark Star Space also merged with the seven elements, becoming one with them.

Xiao Nuan’s body gradually crumbled under the pressure, with broken bones and bleeding…

Finally, the elements and purple energy, together with the dying Xiao Nuan, all entered the Dark Star Space…

Lin Zhen remained completely unaware of all this.

“Report to the commander, we haven’t found Lin Zhen’s trace.” The green-haired girl reported back to Ya Xuan.

“How is that possible? Did Tu Ya and the others dare to lie to me?”

Ya Xuan pondered for a moment: “Never mind Lin Zhen for now. Immediately form a pursuit team and capture Qing Xu, An Bihuai, Chen Fenglie, Jin Qichao, Shang Jin, Dongfang Jun, Luo Yun, and others… I will go to Sky City to ask Miss Diana for help, ensuring that we find the whereabouts of Yan Qiyue and Lin Zhen!”

With the Satellite Stage Commander leading the way, ten pursuit teams began their operation, capturing the strong ones of Hua Xia.
