Chapter 2810 The Sea Emperor's Territory?
Seeing that the Earth Mother wasn't eating people but only asking questions, the man calmed down a bit and spoke more fluently, "But the Yaksha sent by the Sea King will drive away the man-eating sea monsters for us!"
"Sea Emperor?" Upon hearing this name, Mother Earth felt a sense of unease. "Wait a minute, what is the Sea Emperor's name?"
The man raised his hand in front of his chest as a sign of respect: "Your name is 'Xuandu'!"
Wait a minute! Mother Earth was stunned.
Does this island belong to the Sea Emperor Xuandu?
Wait a minute, isn't this the dream of the Goddess of Illusion? How did he end up on Xuandu's island?
What's going on here?
"Have you seen the Sea Emperor?"
"No, no," the man said with a wry smile. "How could I be so honored? But for hundreds of years, our Haidongliao has been worshipping the Sea God. Every sacrificial day, the Yaksha comes to the city to collect offerings."
The Earth Mother's heart skipped a beat: "Where did the Yaksha come from?"
The man pointed behind him: "In the lagoon."
With his explanation, Mother Earth learned that the island they lived on was an atoll, an irregular ring of rock with a lagoon at its center, where the tides rose and fell daily. Without exception, the yakshas all emerged from the lagoon.
So, where does the center of the lagoon lead to?
Have you ever been inside a lagoon?
“I’ve been there, but I didn’t dare to dive deep.” The man nodded repeatedly. “There’s a black hole at the bottom of the lake, and I don’t know where it leads. The closer you get to this black hole, the stronger its suction becomes. People who have been sucked in have never come back.”
Could this be the exit from this dream, or the entrance to the next? The island is so small; it seems there's nowhere else to go.
Mother Earth instinctively did not want to stay on Xuandu's island.
It had never had a direct conflict with the Sea Emperor Xuandu, but the two had long been enemies. When He Lingchuan went to steal the body of the Hidden God, he simply stepped out of the Glazed Sea Small World and returned directly to the Earth Mother Plain. He then killed several immortals and demons before leaving triumphantly.
After that, Xuandu led the sea tribe to cause trouble for Cangyan's fleet, but Cangyan did not give in to him and sent immortals and armies to wipe out the Sea Emperor's forces everywhere - that's right, it was the Earth Mother who carried them there.
It is difficult to defeat the sea creatures with just a fleet. Only a large-capacity platform like the Earth Mother, which combines speed and stealth, can transport troops and infiltrate in one step.
Not to mention anything far in the past, just two or three months ago, the Earth Mother led the Black Armor Army to wipe out the sea tribes of the Yada Islands, which were one of Xuandu's most trusted forces.
The Earth Mother has now come to her senses. Xuan Du had long been entangled with the Heavenly Demon, so it's not surprising that he appeared in the Dream Kingdom of the Goddess of Illusion.
That stingy merman must be here to get revenge!
That's not good.
Before Mother Earth could figure out what to do, a noise came from the direction the man had been pointing to—the sound of grass and trees breaking.
Something is rapidly approaching.
"Yaksha, the Yaksha is here!" The man's voice trembled with joy.
Mother Earth threw him aside and turned to look.
Sure enough, two yakshas strode over, one with green skin and the other with red skin. Both had demonic faces and fangs, and were armed. Both were over ten feet tall, much taller than the current Earth Mother.
"It really is here!" Their eyes lit up as soon as they saw Mother Earth. Without saying a word, the red-skinned yaksha grabbed a conch shell and started blowing on it.
This is calling for reinforcements, and how could Mother Earth allow that? So she punched her and said, "Put it down!"
The two yakshas, though possessing some martial prowess, were no match for the Earth Mother. They were quickly defeated and knocked to the ground, their steel forks snatched away by the Earth Mother, and their conch shells smashed to pieces.
The Earth Mother asked them, "Does Sea Emperor Xuandu know I am here?"
"I know, I know!" Red-skinned Yaksha hurriedly replied, "He sent us to search for you, saying that we cannot, cannot let you go!"
"who am I?"
"Earth, Mother Earth."
Where is Xuandu?
The red-skinned yaksha pointed towards the center of the lake: "The Sea King's Palace. There's a passage in the center of the lake that leads directly to the Sea King's Palace. That's where we came from."
Mother Earth asked them a few more questions, and when she saw that they couldn't give any more useful information, she snapped their necks.
Just as they dealt with the two yakshas, heavy footsteps sounded again from not far away.
The pursuers are coming again.
Mother Earth let out a furious sigh, got up, and headed outside. She needed to thoroughly survey the island's terrain to see if there was any other way out.
In the real world, it wouldn't need to go through all this trouble. Once it sits down, it can extend its senses and take in the terrain within a fifty-mile radius, without even mistaking a mountain hollow. But in this damned dream, its senses are no different from those of a human.
Several hours had passed. It circled around the island and discovered that it was just a reef surrounded by water with no other way out. It had killed more than ten waves of pursuers, each wave more powerful than the last. Now, the one catching up with it was a sea patrol yaksha.
Although they're all called Yakshas, this sea patrol Yaksha is on a completely different level from the two it just killed. It's ten zhang tall, and one punch from it can shake the entire island. This kind of pure power-based fighting style used to be the Earth Mother's specialty, but now it's the one suffering the consequences.
At this point, Mother Earth was already somewhat exhausted after defeating multiple waves of enemies.
This won't do; it will be worked to death.
The sea-patrolling yaksha also possesses powerful water-manipulation abilities. Upon seeing the Earth Mother approach the water's edge, it summons water dragons to attack her. However, the problem is that this is an atoll; how can the Earth Mother stay away from the water's surface?
The Earth Mother silently dodged the attack of a water dragon, rolled to the feet of the sea patrol yaksha, and punched its instep before it could lift its leg.
Being short has its advantages; at least you're agile.
Logically, this punch should have smashed the sea patrol yaksha's foot to pieces, making the big guy clutch his leg and cry out in pain.
However, it did not.
The Earth Mother's punch made a loud bang, but the soles of the Sea Patrol Yaksha's feet were still intact, and the bones were not broken.
Oops.
The Earth Mother felt a chill in her heart. Her physical strength—no, her spiritual strength—was about to give out.
Dreams are not like reality; their power diminishes with every use. The Goddess of Illusionary Music intends to use these rubbish to wear down her soul power and weaken her strength.
Mother Earth finally felt the long-lost exhaustion. This weariness, originating from the soul, manifested in her physical body as panting heavily.
His attack failed, and the sea patrol yaksha retaliated by knocking him into the sea five zhang away, like hitting a ball.
Before Mother Earth could even rise, seawater rushed into my eyes, stinging!
Then, the sea-patrolling yaksha raised its steel fork and thrust it fiercely at it. For the first time, Mother Earth was unsure whether her body was tough enough to withstand the steel fork.
Fortunately, at that moment, a cold light flashed behind the Sea Patrol Yaksha. The Earth Mother saw a bloody hole suddenly explode in the Sea Patrol Yaksha's chest, and purplish-black blood spurted out for more than ten feet. The Yaksha's screams were earth-shattering.
A single, decisive blow.
