Chapter 349 Prophecy
The mermaids sang a song in unison, and the other sea monsters on the beach left the beach at an extremely fast speed as the song began.
On the remaining land, the cultivators who had come to the Demon City to celebrate the New Year stayed by their respective campfires, reveling in the songs of the demon merfolk.
The melodious chorus was like waves crashing against rocks, or like undercurrents rising and falling in the deep sea.
Shen Yao listened, mesmerized. Legend has it that the mermaid's song is like heavenly music, and tonight she heard it, and the rumors were indeed true.
The beautiful melody was melodious and captivating, drawing all the cultivators into a state of blissful immersion.
The mermaids gathered together, singing, and surrounded Shen Yao and the others.
Before Shen Yao lay a seascape, deeply immersed in the mermaid song illusion.
The cultivators sitting around the campfire all wore expressions of pleasure, completely absorbed in the illusion that Jiaoge had created for them.
Besides Shi Bao.
Shi Bao was born and raised in nature, and he was still a child. He was pure and innocent, and no illusion could deceive him.
As the numerous mermaids drew closer, Shi Bao remained calm and composed, sitting quietly on a small chair.
Among the merfolk who had surrounded them, some mermaids walked in from the outer circle and stood in the first row.
"Haaaaha...Ah ah ooh..."
The mermaids sang in unison, and among the mermaids who stepped forward were four demon ancestors, each one extremely beautiful.
As they sang, they transformed into mermaid tails, floating low in the air, leading the mermaid swarm toward the small fire.
Their target was clear: the tiny bubbles emanating from their bodies all drifted towards Shen Yao.
Seeing that the bubbles were about to cross the safe distance, Shi Bao quickly bit his finger, squeezed out a drop of blood and flicked it away. Six drops of blood accurately landed on the foreheads of the cultivators.
Tu Xiaoxiao was the first to regain her senses and immediately released her pressure, preventing the mermaids from moving forward.
A Meng and A Luo activated their defensive stance, protecting the salted fish behind them.
The moment Shen Yao regained consciousness, she picked up Shi Bao and darted to Tu Xiaoxiao's side, dodging four strings of bubbles.
In an instant, Feng Yu created a large-scale golden spirit shield, protecting everyone inside.
Four strings of small bubbles landed on the twigs in the campfire, merged into one large bubble, and floated back, enveloping the twigs.
Clearly, Bubble originally intended to kidnap Shen Yao.
The large bubble containing the Jiujiu Wood collided with the Golden Spirit Shield and stopped in mid-air.
The mermaids who had surrounded them stopped singing at the same time, while the other cultivators on the beach were still immersed in the illusion.
The gazes of the four beautiful mermaids were fixed on Shen Yao.
Holding Shi Bao, Shen Yao asked, "May I ask, ladies, have we violated any taboos while visiting the Demon Shark City? Why are you arresting me?"
The beautiful mermaids did not answer.
In the middle of the beach, sitting by the largest campfire, a mermaid even more beautiful than the four beautiful mermaids gently parted her lips, her voice echoing across the entire beach: "Seize the source of the chaos and return to Deepsea City."
Her voice was devoid of emotion, as if it were merely a response to a question.
"Who are you?" Shen Yao asked loudly, "What source of chaos? What do you mean?"
A sea breeze blew by, lifting the beautiful mermaid's veil and revealing her long, glossy black curly hair.
She stood up from the campfire, her legs transforming into mermaid tails as she floated into the air, gazing down at Shen Yao standing behind Feng Yu: "You are the source of all chaos."
Tu Xiaoxiao whispered a reminder: "Be careful, she is also a demon lord."
The wound on Shi Bao's finger had healed. He touched Shen Yao's face with his soft little hand and said, "Mother, don't be afraid. Shi Bao will protect you."
Shen Yao wasn't afraid. She had the divine-level Qi Concealment Technique to protect her life, and she also had a cheat code to back her up. She could kill any living thing with a single blow.
A beautiful mermaid flew above the swarm of mermaids, and light blue, transparent webbed fingers grew between her fair fingers.
She waved her hand in the air, and several images appeared in succession: "High Priest of Deepsea City, prophesied ten thousand years ago that a goddess would fall to earth ten thousand years later, be misled, and wreak havoc on the world."
The scene prophesied by the high priestess of the merman appeared in the sky, along with an illusion of a golden soul resembling a goddess falling onto the continent of cultivation.
Shen Yao was shocked, because in the illusion, the place where the goddess fell was the back mountain of the Spirit Herb Sect.
The aerial illusions changed according to the beautiful mermaid's description: "The goddess came to the shore at the New Year to receive a sword dance offered by the immortal lord..."
“From the beginning of the prophecy period to this day, it has been exactly ten thousand years, no more and no less.”
The beautiful mermaid was absolutely certain: "You are the source of all trouble."
She dispersed the illusions and unleashed the power of a demon lord to confront Tu Xiaoxiao: "Seize the source of chaos, take her back for a sacrifice, and ensure peace in the world for ten thousand years."
The oppressive auras of the two demon lords canceled each other out, making a great battle inevitable.
The cultivators on the beach who were controlled by the illusion also rushed over. Most of them were seventh or eighth-level demon cultivators, but they were all filled with murderous intent and could not sense any danger.
The mermaid is indeed quite ruthless.
"I'll hold her up, you guys go first!" Tu Xiaoxiao instructed, then flew off to fight the beautiful mermaid.
Shen Yao was unwilling to leave Tu Xiaoxiao behind. With the addition of four light energy puppets, their chances of winning were at least a draw.
But salted fish and stone treasures are in danger.
Xianyu is still a seventh-grade, fourth-grade spiritual root, and Shibao is still young; their identities as Immortal Emperors cannot be revealed.
"Yunhe, let's go."
She would retreat to a safe place first, and then come back to find Tu Xiaoxiao.
Seeing Shen Yao escape, the four beautiful mermaid ancestors gave chase.
Shi Bao and Xian Yu released light energy puppets, and the four light energy puppets dealt with the four merfolk, easily covering their retreat.
They flew for an hour straight. Shen Yao received a message from the puppet and learned that the pursuing Merfolk had retreated. Only then did she call for everyone to stop.
She used her mind to summon Light Energy Number 9 and 10 back, and Light Energy Numbers 7 and 8 to help Tu Xiaoxiao.
There are hidden caves along the coast, but Shen Yao doesn't feel safe enough.
She released the giant Kun, adjusted it to a suitable size, opened the hidden door, and let Shi Bao and her two followers go in. She explained that the mechanism inside the room could reveal the outside environment, and then she and Feng Yu hurried back.
When they rushed back to the beach of the Demon Shark City, they only saw the extinguished campfire on the beach.
The mermaid and other cultivators, as well as Tu Xiaoxiao, all disappeared.
Shen Yao used her mind to summon Light Energy Number Seven and Number Eight, which returned from the Demon Shark City.
"Your Excellency, when we returned, we saw the Fox Lord chasing the Mermaid Demon into the city."
"Let's go." Shen Yao did not hesitate and immediately followed Feng Yu into the city with the puppets.
Upon entering the city, they discovered that the Demon Shark City had fallen into a deep slumber.
Not a single mermaid was to be seen in the city; only a few land-based demon cultivators were asleep in various places and positions.
When Tu Xiaoxiao fought against the Mermaid Lord, she did not want to harm the innocent. She used her charm technique to fight against the Mermaid Song Illusion, awakening the innocent cultivators and letting them escape quickly.
The remaining mermaids below the level of the Mermaid Saint would be committing suicide if they fought against the Demon Lord.
The source of the chaos had already fled, and the Merfolk, not wanting his people to die, sent them all back to the sea.
Tu Xiaoxiao is a high-grade demon lord, and he also possesses the power of the Wood Spirit Source and powerful healing abilities, which allows him to maintain the upper hand in battle.
The Mermaid was slightly injured and, knowing he was no match for the enemy, attempted to escape into the sea.
Tu Xiaoxiao couldn't let her escape; her nine fox tails tightly bound her, trapping her firmly on the beach.
Before the matter was clarified, Tu Xiaoxiao had no intention of killing him, but only forced the Mermaid Lord to explain the accusation of bringing disaster to the world.
“Since you did this to protect the world, tell me the whole story of the prophecy. What misled the goddess? To whom do you intend to sacrifice her? Explain clearly, then go back to the deep sea and I will spare your life.”
