Chapter 144 The mermaid hadnt expected that using her secret technique to enter hibernation would result in her awakening tens of thousands of years later. It was an unimaginable amount of time, and all her people and loved ones were no longer here. This clan land had been abandoned, but the formations arranged here were still functional. They had integrated with the surroundings over time, much like Mangkang Mountain, forming a natural Feng Shui formation. Every few years, special vortexes would appear to absorb energy from the seawater. However, no one could access this place without the mermaids involvement.Thi/s chapter is updated by Seeing her expression, Li Su decided not to engage further and checked on Liu Xinyues condition. She remained unconscious, probably due to an accident while attempting to take the pearl. Thankfully, Li Su muttered after examining her. Liu Xinyues true essence had been suppressed, and forcibly removing the pearl had shocked her. Her soul had been disturbed, leading to her current unconscious state. It would likely take some time for her to awaken, but she didnt appear to have suffered any injuries, which put Li Su at ease. He set up a small protective formation around Liu Xinyue and then redirected his attention to the mermaid, who was still surveying her surroundings. After more than ten minutes, she finally looked at Li Su and sent a message through her spiritual senses. Can you allow me to regain my strength? Once Ive recovered my power, Ill repay you. Her eyes showed her sincerity, but Li Su didnt immediately agree. Even if he were at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, he might be willing to take the risk. With his powerful Nascent Soul, he should have a good chance of defending himself against a Nascent Soul initial-stage opponent, and if things went wrong, he could always retreat. How can we leave this place? Li Su inquired. I can create an exit for you, but the ancestral artifact is currently absorbing energy for this place. It will take around ten days, possibly a bit longer, the mermaid replied. What is your status? Li Su asked through his spiritual senses. I am the Princess of the North Sea Mermaid. You can call me Bai Ling, the mermaid replied. Li Su didnt rush to gather the items inside. He contemplated whether to allow the mermaid to recover her cultivation. She had opened the exit for him, allowing him to collect half of the items and then leave, while she restored her power. Though not necessarily of high rank, the items inside had been growing for an incredibly long time, making them valuable. The abundance of Sunflower Water Pearls represented substantial wealth. However, Li Su was concerned about the mermaid potentially resuming attacks on the Northern Territory after regaining her cultivation. Despite the unlikely scenario due to the passage of tens of thousands of years and the mermaids credibility, there remained a degree of risk, and he hadnt decided yet. Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound echoed through the area. The space trembled, and Li Su quickly scanned the surroundings with his spiritual senses. Outside, a large number of sea creatures had appeared. The mermaid reacted swiftly, closing the passage with her seals. She then projected an image of the outside scene. Outside, sea creatures filled the area, including beings resembling humans from the waist up but with serpent-like lower halves. The Snake people, Li Su whispered. The Snake people were one of the sea clans that had previously attacked the Northern Territory. Weve finally found the ancient Mermaids ancestral land. Destroy everything nearby, and Ill use the Earth Spirit Pearls to blast this place open, a robust Snake person said, speaking a language Li Su understood. The sea clans adopted a common language with the Northern Territory. As he spoke, the sea creatures began wreaking havoc on the outside seabed.
