Chapter 167 : Divine Dragontail Trench (2)
As one dove deeper into the trench, the water pressure grew increasingly higher while the water temperature dropped lower and lower.
At this point, land creatures would start experiencing ringing ears, an uncomfortable sensation in their chests, and also congested nasal passage.
As they descended lower and lower into the murky darkness that opened its mouth wide to swallow the welcome intruders, everything seemed to fade away. The only thing that remained was probably regret.
Xie Jianyu expertly manipulated the water around him, letting it flow past his body without causing him any harm. He glided into the depth, sinking into a silence so deafening that he could hear his own heart beating against his chest.
Xie Jianyu opened his eyes wide and searched for any humanoid form that lingered around.
A random fish with a spiky exterior shot out of a dark corner and approached Xie Jianyu. Curious about this unusual visitor, it started swimming next to him.
Tiny bubbles escaped Xie Jianyu’s lips when he communicated with the fish.
"Did you see a male person other than me inside this trench?"
The fish blinked at Xie Jianyu once, as if pondering about the answer. Right afterward, it made a turn and swam away. Xie Jianyu used his legs to propel him forward and followed the fish.
The fish dove deeper into the trench and led Xie Jianyu to a lifeless body. It was floating in the water like an apparition with its face facing downward.
Xie Jianyu’s heart almost stopped beating at the sight. A glimpse at the man’s side feature was enough for him to recognize the alpha that he was looking for.
