Chapter 1768: Entering the Thunderous Sea
“It’s a Wine Insect!”
Feng Qingyou pinched the insect between two fingers and gave it a look-over. “Taoist Gu is an extraordinary man. It is not easy to nurture and control Wine Insects.”
A Wine Insect is a Soulstealer-class Stranger. It was weak, but it was very rare. It loved drinking wine and smelled like delicious wine. If it crawled into a human, they would fall unconscious as if they had drunk the richest and sweetest wine in the world. They would not awake until several days later.
Because of this, many alcohol lovers were desperate to get their hands on a Wine Insect. Alas, it was priceless and often impossible to obtain.
However, Taoist Gu had tossed out dozens of Wine Insects just to incapacitate some warriors. He didn’t even bother retrieving them after the fact.
The Divine Firmament Sect disciple gradually awakened after the Wine Insect had left his body. However, when Ye Qing placed a hand on his skull, he immediately grew dizzy and semi-aware once more.
“Fall unconscious for a while longer, will you?”
A while later, Ye Qing withdrew his hand and flicked his fingers, causing the disciple to fall unconscious once more.
Feng Qingyou asked, “So? What did you find?”
“The ancient Divine Court might actually exist.”
Ye Qing took a moment to arrange the information he retrieved from the Divine Firmament Sect disciple’s memories before beginning his explanation, “Several weeks ago, the Five Phases Divine Thunders suddenly appeared in this sea region. Purple light spread like clouds, and extraordinary phenomena enveloped everything within thousands and thousands of kilometers. Some people saw a mysterious yet broken abode. The abode seemed to comprise thirty six levels, and they could vaguely see halls such as the Southern Heaven Gate, the Towering Firmament Hall, the Peach Garden, the Purple Micro Palace, the Tushita Palace and more.
“Later, Fate Knowing Superior of the Eight Views Sect performed a divination and found out that the broken abode was the ruins of the ancient Divine Court. So, the four Southern Sea sects—Divine Firmament, Eight Views, Whale Rider and White Cloud—mobilized all of their forces and ventured into the ruins.”
