Chapter 1520: Ocean Infant Formation, Over a Hundred Soul Pet Eggs

Three minutes was enough time for these Azure Ocean Iguanas to fill the entire exit of the trench.

Chu Mu looked up, and could no longer see the ocean area above him. A mass of azure scales covered the area atop and various green poisonous liquids were dropping down from above.

“Old Li, have you found it?!” Chu Mu didn’t have any other option and could only keep swimming deeper into the trench. He was hoping that Old Li would be able to find the Life Providence Grass quicker.

“Young master, there’s one located in the deep point over there. But if we keep going down, our exit will be completely blocked off!” said Old Li.

Chu Mu looked where Old Li was pointing, and discovered that ocean water was flowing into that place.

If the ocean water was flowing in a part of the deep ocean trench, it meant that this part of the trench had a cave that led downwards somewhere else. Chu Mu was thus unexpectedly surprised and didn’t hesitate to keep going down into the deep ocean trench.

Various kinds of underwater plants were growing at the depths of the trench. There were also many energy magic stones lying here. Chu Mu felt that since it had taken him much difficulty to reach the nest of the Calamity Ocean Demon, he couldn’t just bring away a single Life Providence Grass.

He continued to move downwards, using spatial force to take the xuan and immortal items, as well as the magic stones, mixed in the sludge or embedded between rocks.

This didn’t take him much time and soon, he filled up a spatial ring. He didn’t know whether the things he inside were any good. He would only have the thought of looking at them once he escaped this place.

As he continued to move downwards, Chu Mu immediately smelled a dense immortal aura in the ocean water. This meant that there was definitely treasure even lower down.

Indeed, while moving down, he discovered numerous pearls flickering with bright light.

“Young master, I have the Life Providence Grass. There’s still a trench tunnel here that’s very hidden. It seems to lead somewhere else,” said Old Li.

Chu Mu saw that Old Li had obtained Life Providence Grass and thus hastily put those shimmering water pearls into his spatial ring.

These pearls were definitely immortal items. He didn’t have time to see how many immortal items he had. But he had obtained other benefits on top of the LIfe Providence Grass. As long as he could escape, this would be considered a successful risk.

The trench tunnel seemed to go below the ground of the ocean. Chu Mu didn’t know where it was leading to, but no matter how terrible it was, it wouldn’t be any worse than the mass of fiendish Azure Ocean Iguanas behind him.

The trench tunnel was very long and at the very end appeared a pitch-black ocean floor cave.

He didn’t know if the cave was naturally formed or the Ocean species had dug its way in, but the cave at this end of the tunnel was full of the trench’s aura!

Spirit, xuan, and immortal aura was mixed in here as well as various ocean floor magic stones. This all provided attribute energy. When Chu Mu swam here, he felt as if he was standing in a cultivation formation. It was like his soul would strengthen from the energy surging at him from all directions!

“Could... could this be the Ocean species’ Ocean Infant Formation?” Old Li immediately saw the use of this special cave.

“What is an Ocean Infant Formation?” asked Chu Mu.

“Look. Isn’t there a soul pet egg placed at every location in the cave?” said Old Li.

Chu Mu looked around and indeed discovered several soul pet eggs placed throughout the cave. These soul pet eggs were definitely ocean creatures and they were placed in a patterned formation. It resembled a conch with a mouth that continuously absorbed the various energy gathered here!

“Many ocean creatures can absorb aura while in egg form. The more they absorb, the stronger they will be when they hatch and they will always greatly surpass other species members. The rank of these soul pet eggs is not low. The weakest is a dominator rank. This is definitely how the Calamity Ocean Demon plans on using the ocean treasure basin’s resources to create a group of completely loyal ocean generals!” said Old Li.

Chu Mu looked around. There were 100 soul pet eggs in the cave. Just as Old Li had said, the weakest was a dominator rank.

This meant their innate species rank was the dominator rank. Once they absorbed the natural ocean treasure region’s aura, they would innately be superior to many other creatures. Once they matured, they would easily be able to look down on the vast majority of creatures. They would form an extremely powerful elite troop force!

He had no choice but to admit that the Calamity Ocean Demon was greatly focused on development. It had surprisingly gathered the high bloodline soul pet eggs it had plundered from various species and put them here to specially raise them!

Perhaps these soul pet eggs that had yet to hatch were useless right now. But in ten or twenty years, they would form a group of incomparably loyal subordinates with extremely powerful destructive force!

“Eh, they aren’t chasing us in.” Old Li looked somewhat surprised as he watched the ocean floor tunnel.

There were actually many similar tunnels around the cave that led here. These tunnels all led to different locations in the trench.This clearly was the energy core of the entire Ocean Infant Formation.

Interestingly, Chu Mu had slaughtered his way in and when he reached the inside of the Ocean Infant Formation, those Azure Ocean Iguanas didn’t dare chase him inside. They were only able to wait outside the ocean floor tunnels.

“Haha, they are worried about the safety of these soul pet eggs.” Old Li seemed to have discovered something and immediately laughed.

These soul pet eggs were extremely fragile, and couldn’t withstand much movement. If these Azure Ocean Iguanas charged in and fought with Chu Mu here, they would shatter these precious soul pet eggs.

Only they knew how vital these soul pet eggs were to the Calamity Ocean Demon!

“If these soul pet eggs are so precious, why didn’t the Calamity Ocean Demon send a powerful guard to defend this place?” Chu Mu didn’t understand.

“Young master, you really have no common sense!” said Old Li with disdain as he said: “The Ocean Infant Formation is similar to a cultivation formation. If he sends a powerful ocean demon to defend this place, this powerful ocean demon will absorb all of the energy here for itself. The soul pet eggs won’t obtain a single benefit. There are a ton of guards outside the trench, but there are no ocean demons within the range of the formation. Otherwise, the resources will be stolen by those ocean demons that understand better how to absorb the energy.”

Chu Mu nodded his head and roughly understood the reason.

“Young master, will your spatial ring fit these?” suddenly asked Old Li.

“Ya, go and look for a good way out. I’ll immediately go over.” Chu Mu cracked a smile.

Old Li had short legs and arms, but his ability to swim in the water was incredible. He quickly began to probe out the different tunnels in the cave.

“Young master, this tunnel has fewer enemies.” Old Li came back after probing.

Chu Mu had already taken away all of the soul pet eggs in the cave.

Chu Mu quickly moved along the tunnel Old Li had pointed to and left the Ocean Infant Formation.

But the reality was, it didn’t matter which way Chu Mu left; the outside would be heavily surrounded and a terrifying aura was gathered outside the Ocean Infant Formation. The moment Chu Mu swam out, he would be crushed to pieces by the Azure Ocean Iguanas!

Indeed, the moment he exited the ocean floor tunnel, he was surrounded not by water, but instead Azure Ocean Iguanas that were packed so tightly together that there wasn’t a crack of space between them!

“Kui kui kui!!!!!! Kui kui!!! Kui!!!!!!!!”

“Kui kui kui!!!!!!”

When the Azure Ocean Iguanas saw Chu Mu swim out, their azure eyes instantly sparkled like stars around Chu Mu. Their gazes were full of killing intent and it made Chu mu feel as if his heart had been pierced a myriad of times!

If he were on land, perhaps Chu Mu would still dare fight this Azure Ocean Iguana army. However, in the ocean, he wouldn’t last more than a few minutes. A few consecutive waves of attacks could kill him.

However, Chu Mu wasn’t worried.

In fact, when he swam out of the tunnel, he wasn’t hurried or impatient. He held multiple soul pet eggs and rapidly rotated them around him.

Chu Mu knew that these Azure Ocean Iguanas viewed these soul pet eggs as extremely important. Thus, he leisurely revolved the soul pet eggs around them. Even without speaking the Ocean species language, his intention was very clear: if you dare attack me, these eggs will all be destroyed!

Chu Mu flicked a finger and one of the soul pet eggs instantly shot through the ocean water towards a nearby rock!

Chu Mu added a spatial barrier layer of protection onto the soul pet egg. This meant when it shot through the water, it wouldn’t crack from the water force against it. However, the moment it collided with a physical object, it would immediately shatter!

When the Azure Ocean Iguanas saw Chu Mu’s action, their lizard faces turned ashen. One of the close near-dominator rank Ocean Iguana Demons hastily rushed out to save it.

Once Chu Mu saw that Azure Ocean Iguana’s movement, he faintly smiled and he began to flick his fingers rapidly!

In an instant, over a hundred soul pet eggs shot in completely different directions!

At the speed they were going, average strength Azure Ocean Iguanas were unable to stop them. Therefore, even if the Azure Ocean Iguanas practically covered the entire trench, they needed the peak dominator rank and above Azure Ocean Iguanas to catch the eggs.

Chu Mu shot these soul pet eggs in different directions and event added a spatial leap to them. In an instant, the extremely high ranked Azure Ocean Iguanas were running in a panic in all different directions to catch these soul pet eggs.

After scattering the hundred strongest Azure Ocean Iguanas, Chu Mu didn’t hesitate. His body transformed into a dark star sword that shot straight forwards and broke through the heavy encirclement of the Azure Ocean Iguanas!

Without the immortal rank and peak dominator rank Azure Ocean Iguanas blocking him, Chu Mu was like a hot knife through butter. He instantly shot through the Azure Ocean Iguanas and broke out of the trench.

“Young master, how could you throw those eggs away?” Old Li felt heartache as he watched those soul pet eggs return to the Azure Ocean Iguanas.

“Then do you have a better method to escape?” retorted Chu Mu.

“No.”

Chu Mu turned around and looked at those Azure Ocean Iguana generals that thought they were protecting the soul pet eggs. His mouth drew itself into a smile as he said: “The Mermaid Princess wasn’t wrong... those Azure Ocean Iguanas really are stupid. Those soul pet eggs are from the previous ocean battle I fought that I just happened to pick up. I planned on using them to expand New Moon Navy.”

Old Li was stunned, and discovered that Chu Mu was wearing another more resplendent spatial ring on his finger!

This was an amazing trick. Of the hundred nurtured soul pet eggs, the weakest was a pseudo dominator rank while the strongest was an immortal rank! These were the young pet resources the Calamity Ocean Demon had obtained from invading numerous Ocean species!

This was a huge profit!
