Chapter 2323
Frog-Headed Monster
"It would be perfect if I could get all the crystals at the bottom of the sea!" Zhuowen sighed with some regret.
Of course, all of this was just Zhuowen's fantasy. The number of crystals at the bottom of the sea had reached a terrifying level. Even without the obstruction of the sea, Zhuowen would probably need a few months to collect them all.
However, Zhuowen was quite satisfied with the harvest this time. In just a short period of time, Zhuowen had collected over ten thousand crystals.
If this was in the outside world, it would cause a huge sensation.
"I've already comprehended my own divine ability. This trial should be considered passed, right?"
Zhuowen took out a praying mat. After recuperating for a while, he stood up again and looked around at the quiet sea. He frowned slightly. He felt that the surroundings were too quiet. There was no movement at all.
"Splash!"
Just as Zhuowen was puzzled, an extremely ear-piercing sound of water suddenly appeared on the calm sea surface. Then, a huge whirlpool appeared on the surface of the water a thousand miles in front of the plank road.
This whirlpool was dark and it was impossible to see what was inside.
Zhuowen stood on the plank road and silently looked at the whirlpool in the water. After waiting for a while, he found that there was no creature or monster coming out of the whirlpool. He frowned and muttered to himself in a low voice, "Could this be the entrance to a certain place?"
Zhuowen's guess was not without reason. After the whirlpool appeared in the water, Zhuowen clearly felt that there was a teleportation power in the whirlpool. Clearly, this whirlpool was a teleportation array.
However, Zhuowen was hesitant about whether he should enter the whirlpool or not.
After waiting for a while, Zhuowen confirmed that this whirlpool was indeed not dangerous. He took a step with his right foot and jumped into the depths of the whirlpool. Soon, he disappeared inside.
After Zhuowen disappeared into the whirlpool, the eyes of the mysterious head in the outside world flickered. Its gaze landed on a figure in front of it. This figure was emitting a strange glow.
"Not bad. To think that he would be able to comprehend the laws of spacetime. This fellow is much stronger than those trash from before. Although I have lowered the difficulty of the trial by a little, it was still not easy to pass. For this kid to be able to pass, it goes to show how strong his talent is."
The mysterious head mumbled to itself, and the figure that its gaze fell upon was actually Zhuowen.
However, at this moment, Zhuowen landed not far away from Yao Xiangjun. His surroundings were frozen by ice. He was motionless and his expression was serene.
Clearly, Zhuowen was also frozen in time. However, the only difference between him and the others was that his body emitted a strange light, while the others did not.
The mysterious head knew that this light represented that Zhuowen's soul had not yet been lost in the trial. Once this child was completely lost, the strange light would also disappear, and Zhuowen would never be able to return.
This time, what entered the trial was not Zhuowen's physical body, but Zhuowen's soul.
The mysterious head did not tell Zhuowen this. It knew that if it told Zhuowen, it would only cause the latter to have more worries. Thus, it might as well keep it from Zhuowen.
After entering the trial, Zhuowen's soul would leave, but his physical body would be frozen in time for eternity. Only if he passed the trial would the time-freeze disappear. At that time, Zhuowen would also completely obtain the Spacetime Key.
Zhuowen opened his eyes and found that he was still on a plank road in front of him. The surroundings were misty white, but Zhuowen knew that this plank road should also be built in a sea. This was because he heard the sound of crashing water and waves.
Zhuowen did not know where this place was, but he knew that the only thing he could do now was to move forward. He knew that the road ahead would definitely have the answer he wanted.
This place also had the Spacetime Constraint, but it did not have much effect on Zhuowen now. After all, he had comprehended a part of the Spacetime Law and also had a trace of the Power of Spacetime. He had also created the Sun Waning Above the Sea.
The Spacetime Constraint had long lost any effect on him.
After Zhuowen slowly disappeared into the fog, a head poked out from under the plank road where Zhuowen had just been.
This head looked like a frog with a pair of round eyes. It stared in the direction that Zhuowen had left and sneered, "Another one has come to die. This guy's soul looks quite delicious. Perhaps Sir will like it. I'll go inform him first."
After saying that, the monster slowly dived into the water and left.
Zhuowen walked for three hours and finally found that the surrounding fog had gradually thinned out. At the same time, he noticed that in the distance, he saw the outline of an island.
Looking at the outline, the island was not big, but Zhuowen smelled an ominous premonition from the island.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Suddenly, there was the sound of water splashing, and then a series of fierce black shadows swept towards Zhuowen at an extremely fast speed.
Zhuo Wen took a deep breath and immediately took out the Emperor's Sword. The Emperor's Sword in his right hand abruptly swept out, and in an instant, the sword light turned into a waterfall that connected the heavens and the earth. It actually laid across Zhuo Wen's body, turning into a revolving barrier.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of sounds like hailstones were heard, and then Zhuowen discovered that these black shadows were actually fist-sized ice cubes.
To be more precise, these were not ice cubes, but fist-sized water droplets frozen at a certain point in time by the Spacetime Law.
These water droplets contained the Spacetime Law, and if one was hit by them, it would not feel good.
Zhuo Wen swung his sword again and again, barely managing to block the ice that fell like raindrops. His gaze also noticed his surroundings, and he discovered that numerous heads had emerged from the surface of the sea. They were densely packed together.
These heads were very strange. They were shaped like frog heads, and their fan-like palms grabbed the seawater around them and threw it towards Zhuowen.
Zhuowen blocked the falling ice cubes around him, but his eyes revealed a look of shock.
He knew very well that the sea below the plank road was eternally frozen at a certain point in time by the Spacetime Law, just like ice cubes. No creature could travel through such seawater, and basically all of them were frozen at the bottom of the sea.
However, these countless frog-headed monsters that appeared in front of him not only traveled through the sea, but also grabbed the frozen seawater and threw it at him. How could Zhuowen not be shocked?
Fortunately, these frog-headed monsters were not strong, and there were no energy fluctuations on their bodies. It seemed that they only knew how to use brute force.
However, Zhuowen did not dare to be careless because these monsters had a natural advantage. Their bodies contained the Spacetime Law, so they could freely travel through this strange sea and use the Spacetime Water to attack.
If an ordinary cultivator was hit by so much Spacetime Water, they would undoubtedly die, but Zhuowen was not so bad. After all, he had comprehended a part of the Spacetime Law. At most, he would be a little embarrassed.
"Sword Dragon Slashes the Sky!"
Zhuowen knew that if he kept defending, he would lose, so he had to take the initiative to attack. Otherwise, these monsters would definitely exhaust his strength.
Zhuowen swung his sword, and suddenly, the soaring sword qi intertwined with each other and condensed into a huge dragon above Zhuowen.
