Chapter 304 29: Sleepless Jade, Forever in the South Sea (2/3)
In the depths of the South Sea, amidst an endless expanse of ocean.
There were no living creatures, no islands, only an endless stretch of storms and thunderclouds.
However, just as the sixteen Night Wanderers found themselves in fierce battles.
The previously tumultuous sea surface suddenly experienced a moment of eerie calm.
And in that brief moment, a massive island, entirely made of white jade, slowly emerged from the water.
If judged by Li Boyang's standards from his past life, the entire jade of the island would be the finest mutton fat jade.
— Crystal clear and white as coagulated fat.
Everywhere the eye could see, the entire island exuded a warm and pure white feeling.
Especially in the very center of the ocean.
The emergence of such a mutton fat white jade island added an extraordinarily tranquil feeling.
Upon closer observation, one would find the entire island exudes a highly regular and harmonious sensation.
As if naturally formed, yet also seemingly sculpted by human hands...
The most crucial aspect is, when the entire island fully emerged, the Primordial Qi in heaven and earth began to surge and swirl as though in a vortex.
In an instant, a multicolored radiance appeared in the sky above the originally warm white jade-like island.
"Celestial Being!"
As the radiance materialized, an angry voice echoed above the White Jade Island.
[Oh? I thought you would continue hiding?]
As if in response to this angry voice.
Li Boyang, who was fighting Ghost Child and Faceless, suddenly raised an eyebrow and then looked towards the depths of the South Sea.
The next second, the remaining fifteen living Night Wanderers, including Ghost Child, Faceless, and You Guang, simultaneously let out screams.
Because a peculiar jadeification phenomenon was quietly appearing on these fifteen Night Wanderers.
Just like that White Jade Island.
The still-living fifteen Night Wanderers gradually turned into white jade.
Yet they could only watch helplessly, their eyes full of despair and painful struggle, utterly powerless to stop this curse's extension from a higher-being.
[So this is the curse you've endured?]
[Bodies turn into white jade, Divine Souls forever imprisoned inside the jade form.]
[No wonder Wu Yi does not kill you, you've been trapped by a curse...]
[This must be a curse left by some Witch King, right?]
Li Boyang's voice crossed thousands of miles, directly entering the White Jade Island.
His casual yet surprisingly assured tone successfully ignited the wrath of the White Jade Island.
Boom!
Accompanied by the sound of a violent explosion, the side of the White Jade Island suddenly ruptured.
In an instant, a blaze shot into the sky, transforming into a red serpent in midair.
Through the red serpent's eyes, Li Boyang could clearly see the irrepressible anger of the South Sea God.
However, Li Boyang was more curious about what the South Sea God intended to do now.
From miles away, risking the backlash of the curse to forcibly break free; was it just to reveal his abilities?
Boom!
Just as Li Boyang pondered, another massive explosion reverberated.
But this time, it wasn't the action of the South Sea God, but the surrounding sea surface being blasted by an invisible force.
When Li Boyang fixed his gaze, a Primordial Spirit, between existence and non-existence, materialized out of thin air.
It was one of Wu Yi's nine Primordial Spirits—the avatar of the seventh Witch King.
However, the Primordial Spirit now seemed somewhat weary.
Its body occasionally vanished and reappeared, and weariness was evident in its gaze.
"Li Boyang, I know you are listening now!"
"I don't know to what extent Buyan Huyu has progressed..."
"But what I want to tell you is, this guy is not just about the Sea God!"
"My initial mistake was not realizing this, and that slight oversight trapped me under their influence, forcing me to use this 'Jadeification Insomnia Curse'."
"Unfortunately, my Primordial Spirit is also trapped here."
"If you want to solve the trouble Buyan Huyu brings, you'll have to act quickly!"
"They're gradually refining my Primordial Spirit, using the 'Celestial Human Technique' they obtained from you!"
"My true body is dead, and the Primordial Spirit is divided into nine parts, the remaining power can't restrain them for long!"
"The Sea Eye marks their current location..."
"To protect yourself, this old monster has merged with the Sea Eye, so unless absolutely necessary, do not kill them!"
As he spoke, the Primordial Spirit transformed into a stream of light, charging at the red serpent.
In just a few brief exchanges, the red serpent, which had just freed itself, was again jadeified, crashing heavily toward White Jade Island.
.............................................
"That madman..."
As the storms and thunderclouds gathered anew, the White Jade Island sank back into the South Sea.
Distantly, Li Boyang slowly closed his Celestial Eye, his expression showing hints of annoyance.
Even after death, Wu Yi left behind such a mess.
Especially with Buyan Huyu, who claimed to be the "South Sea God," choosing to merge with the Sea Eye like the Rain Master.
This meant that even knowing the Sea Eye's location, it would be meaningless now for Li Boyang.
After all, no one knew what kind of earth-shattering changes would occur if the Sea Eye were to be completely destroyed.
At least through the divination of the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor.
Li Boyang knew that doing so would only trigger a catastrophe even more dangerous than "Wu Yi Shoots the Sky."
Did Wu Yi realize this, hence not daring to kill Buyan Huyu, but chose to trap them with the 'Jadeification Insomnia Curse' instead?
"Though theoretically plausible, something about it feels off."
Involuntarily, his gaze swept towards the nearby jadeified Ghost Child and Faceless, and Li Boyang murmured this.
It was due to the connection among the Night Wanderers that.
Li Boyang was able to ascertain the South Sea God's location.
Now he needed more precise coordinates, necessitating further means.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Li Boyang appeared in mid-air.
Gazing at the nearby Night Wanderer Jade Statue, [Observing Others' Hidden Thoughts·Unobstructed Communication Divine Power] activated directly.
But this time, Li Boyang didn't intend to communicate using [Telepathy].
Forcibly prying open the minds of the two Night Wanderers, continually searching and tracing back their past memories, was the most proper use of [Telepathy].
Thus, although Ghost Child and Faceless were entirely jadeified, they still felt fear.
Especially when those hidden secrets within their hearts were forcibly unveiled.
They experienced for the first time the fear of those souls killed and their spirit searched by Ye Zhong.
The feeling of watching one's memories being trampled upon is hard to imagine without personal experience.
