Ya Xixian felt amazed as they continued to go deeper, seeing many beautiful views, like in her late mother's stories. Furthermore, they encountered nurous beasts that were stronger than them, but none of them dared to attack them.
"Are you enjoying yourself?"
"Yes." Ya Xixian replied with a nod. "My mother often talked about the beauty of the deep part of the ocean, but she forbade from going too deep, especially since there were too many strong beasts."
"Hahaha." Wu Gui laughed at that. "She was right in forbidding you from entering here, and not all demihumans or beasts can reach this deep. Fortunately, I am the black tortoise, and my bloodline can suppress them easily. Moreover, these beasts are not the strongest, and there are several other beasts much stronger than them on the seabed."
Ya Xixian was completely shocked after hearing that, especially since all the beasts they had encountered were too strong. "Is that true?"
"Haha, I don't need to lie to you, right?" Wu Gui responded with a chuckle. "Luckily, they can't transform into humans, and they can only stay on the seabed. Otherwise, they would move to the surface, launch attacks against all of you, and ultimately wipe out your races.
Ya Xixian took a deep breath before exhaling again, and she felt frightened at the thought. "Are those beasts stronger than my ancestors?"
"Do you think your ancestors will let them live if they can defeat them?" Ya Xixian responded by shaking her head. "Your ancestors are indeed great because they were born with the Demon God Body and Dragon God Body, but they are still demihumans and not pure beasts. Moreover, the beasts on the seabed are much older than them, and their strength is much greater compared to them, so they didn't dare to offend them because they were aware of the huge difference in their strength."
"I see."
Soon, they arrived at the seabed, but Ya Xixian froze when she saw the pair of giant eyes, and her body trembled strongly when she saw the fish beast's humongous body; even Wu Gui's body was less than that. The beast looks very scary, with a head resembling that of a giant crocodile and sharp teeth. Moreover, she could clearly feel that the beast's cultivation was far above that of her leader, making her shiver in fear at the thought of it devouring them. 'Crap! Can he fight this beast? I know he's a mythical beast, but this one is far beyond his reach.'
Wu Gui smiled slightly before unleashing the full force of his bloodline power, prompting the beast to bow its head and greet him, leaving Ya Xixian stunned. "Please forgive if I get in your way, lord."
Although Wu Gui was far superior to the beasts, he was not completely arrogant. "You don't need to apologize to , Senior. Actually, I ca here because I felt sothing unusual from this seabed, so I wanted to check it out."
"Lord, you are the black tortoise, and your affinity for the water elent is extrely high, so you must have sensed that ancient artifact."
"An ancient artifact?" Wu Gui and Ya Xixian were shocked to hear that.
The beasts nodded to them. "In fact, the ancient artifact was already in this ocean long before I was born, so it's probably more than a million years old, and it is shrouded in an incredibly powerful aura. Besides, we beasts who live inside here have tried to approach the artifact again and again, but the aura always repelled us, so we don't know for sure what kind of artifact it really is."
"Can you take the artifact, Wu Gui?"
"I'm not sure about that." Wu Gui answered Ya Xixian's question by shaking his head. "Even though I am a mythical beast, I am still too young for us beasts. Moreover, such artifacts usually have spirits within them, and they will usually choose their masters of their own will, so no one can get their hands on them if their spirit does not acknowledge us."
"You're right, Lord." They gazed at the beast again. "Actually, the artifact does have a spirit, and she has repeatedly shown us her figure. However, she is very fierce and cruel, and she tortured us too often, so we hope that there will be soone who can take the artifact from this place, or our lives will never be peaceful."
Unlike Ya Xixian, who felt dumbfounded after hearing the beast's confession in front of them, Wu Gui actually laughed out loud. "Hahaha! That's an artifact spirit for ya! She's probably frustrated because she hasn't found her master, even though more than a million years have passed, so she vented her anger on you guys."
The beast sighed heavily and nodded at him. "Would you like to try to see the artifact and the spirit first, Lord? Who knows, maybe you are destined to beco her master, so you can take her away from this ocean."
Although Wu Gui wanted to get the artifact, he was fully aware that he did not necessarily have the qualifications to beco the master. Even so, he was curious about the artifact and the female spirit. "Senior, I'm not sure that I can take them away, but I know soone who definitely has the qualifications to do so. However, I want to see them first before deciding on the next step, so please take there."
"Please follow , Lord."
The beast then swam away in another direction, and Wu Gui imdiately followed behind it. Even Ya Xixian looked excited about it, especially since she had never seen an artifact that had a spirit in it.

Soti later, they arrived at the artifact's location, but a huge yellow do shrouded it, which represented the earth elent. However, the female spirit suddenly appeared in front of them when they were about to get closer. She has a cute face with foot-long brown hair; even her skin looks tan, and her figure is similar to a girl in her early twenties. She had round green eyes, and her small lips were quite thick. Unfortunately, her figure doesn't look attractive, especially since her chest is as flat as a runway.
The female spirit imdiately blasted the three of them away. "This is a warning from because you are a mythical beast, but you don't have the qualifications to take my artifact, so you should leave. Otherwise, I will no longer be reluctant towards you, and I will beat you up like those weak old beasts."
"Hey, I know you're probably lonely since you've lived inside here for more than a million years, but you don't need to be that rude, you know?" Instead, the female spirit looked furious after listening to Wu Gui's words, and he hurriedly spoke to her again. "Actually, I know soone who is superior to us, and you would probably be willing to acknowledge that person as your master. Unfortunately, you are too rude and unethical, so I changed my mind, and you can continue to stay inside here until the end of ti."
"Wait!" As soon as Wu Gui turned to leave, the female spirit shouted at them, and she quickly blocked in front of them. "Do you really know soone great?"
Wu Gui shook his head at her question. "Living down here alone for so long seems to have made you senile, and you obviously know that I'm a mythical beast. Do you think I would admit another living being to be superior to ?"
"No." The female spirit shook her head at him. "You mythical beasts are too arrogant, so you will never admit other living creatures are superior to you."
"Arrogant, your ass!" Wu Gui irritably shouted at the female spirit. "Aren't you more arrogant than ? I ca here on good terms, and I want to check on you guys before making a decision. But what? You attacked ! You even chased away and threatened ! Yet you dared to say that I'm arrogant!"
The old beast inwardly laughed while listening to Wu Gui scold the female spirit, especially since he and the others had never been able to fight her because their strength difference was too great. 'Hahaha! Feel it!'
However, the female spirit imdiately turned to the old beast and fiercely glared at him, causing him to shiver, but she then pouted her lips at Wu Gui. "I didn't know before that you just wanted to check, and I thought that you wanted to try to take my artifact, so I was forced to do that."
"Baka!" Once again, Wu Gui shouted angrily at the female spirit. "At least you could have asked first and not imdiately attacked like that! Now, apologize to , or I will leave right now, and you will never be able to leave this place!"
The female spirit's lips twitched after hearing that, but she felt reluctant to apologize to him, especially since Wu Gui was younger and weaker than her. However, she was fully aware that a mythical beast like him would never acknowledge the superiority of another living creature, and he might actually know soone who could take her and the artifact away from the bottom of the ocean, so she didn't want to miss that opportunity. "I sincerely apologize to you, so please call that person here."
