Chapter 519: 299. Water God Reviving? The Night King is in Danger!

The moment the Night King stepped out from the crack, the formidable biometric pressure he emitted pushed the surrounding seawater away, creating an oppressive vacuum zone.

Lin Zichen reacted very quickly, diving deep into the bottomless seabed just a second before the Night King emerged from the crack.

By the time the Night King stepped out from the crack, Lin Zichen had already created a distance of several thousand meters between them.

“Still making futile struggles…”

The Night King looked down at Lin Zichen, who kept diving deeper, his eyes revealing a cat-toying-with-a-mouse gaze.

Then, with a mere thought, he tore open another huge rift in the space at his side.

He stepped in calmly and stepped out just as unhurriedly.

When the Night King reemerged from the crack, he precisely blocked the path where Lin Zichen was diving, appearing right beneath him.

Seeing the Night King appear again, Lin Zichen’s heart sank to the abyss.

There’s no escape…

Simply no escape…

Tearing through the void is too much like cheating, similar to having a door that leads anywhere. No matter the distance, a mere thought is enough to reach…

Making it impossible for his target to escape…

The more Lin Zichen thought about it, the more he felt desperate.

Across from him,

the Night King looked at Lin Zichen with great interest, inspecting his physical body to see what special attributes this Earthling, consistently sought after by the Sun-Moon Sacred Land, possessed.

During this time, Lin Zichen tried to move, but was completely restrained by the Night King’s spiritual power and couldn’t budge.

He could only allow the Night King to invade and thoroughly scrutinize his biometric information.

“What exactly is the deal with your body?”

“How could you evolve into a Legendary Level Creature at the mere age of 20?”

“It’s too unbelievable.”

“No wonder the Sun-Moon Sacred Land has always been scheming to capture you.”

“There must be some unknown secrets within you.”

While peering into Lin Zichen’s physical body, the Night King’s expression gradually became excited.

After steadying his emotions slightly, the Night King’s voice became much calmer, “I’m giving you a chance to escape. Try your best, fight as hard as you can to escape; maybe you could escape from my hands.”

After speaking, he released the spiritual restraint on Lin Zichen, allowing him to flee.

As soon as the spiritual restraint lifted, Lin Zichen didn’t hesitate for a moment, immediately erupting with Qi-Blood and Spirit to flee deeper into the seabed at the highest speed.

Meanwhile, he maximized the effects of his biometric attributes such as “Blessing of Melting Water” and “Natural Camouflage.”

He knew the Night King was letting him run for a specific reason, just like Ye Yongsheng before, who also wanted to test the limits of his physical body to see what was special about it.

“Boom——!”

“Boom——!”

“Boom——!”

Lin Zichen’s speed of diving was extremely fast, creating a tremendous roar as he moved through the water.

In just the blink of an eye, he had dived several thousand meters deep, completely distancing himself from the Night King above.

However, he had only distanced himself from the Night King’s physical body and had not escaped the Night King’s spiritual lock.

The spiritual power of a Mythical Level Creature was too strong, something not even a Legendary Level Creature could shake off.

No matter how deep Lin Zichen dived or how far he distanced himself from the Night King above, the Night King could appear in front of Lin Zichen whenever he wished, by simply willing it and tearing through the void.

Yet even so, Lin Zichen still chose to flee.

Not fleeing guaranteed soul possession.

To flee might offer a minuscule chance of escape.

Ten thousand meters.

Twenty thousand meters.

Thirty thousand meters.

Forty thousand meters.

Fifty thousand meters…

Lin Zichen continued to dive deeper. In just over ten seconds, he had reached a depth of fifty thousand meters.

Yet, the seafloor was still nowhere in sight.

The scenes below remained a deep and profound darkness.

The only difference was that he could distinctly feel the weakening of the Night King’s spiritual power.

It had weakened to the point of being barely perceptible.

In the ocean’s depths of fifty thousand meters, it seemed he had reached the limit of the Night King’s sensory range.

Upon this realization, Lin Zichen felt a flicker of hope in this otherwise desperate situation—a glimmer of hope for escape.

Sixty thousand meters.

Seventy thousand meters.

Eighty thousand meters.

Ninety thousand meters.

One hundred thousand meters…

In the blink of an eye, another ten or so seconds had passed.

Lin Zichen had dived another fifty thousand meters.

The total depth of his dive had now reached a staggering one hundred thousand meters.

At this depth, Lin Zichen could barely sense the Night King’s spiritual lock on him anymore.

However, he still didn’t dare to be careless and continued to dive frantically to ensure he could truly escape the Night King above.

One hundred ten thousand meters.

One hundred twenty thousand meters.

One hundred thirty thousand meters…

Lin Zichen didn’t stop for a moment, continuing his intense, high-speed dive, never daring to relax for even a second.

When he reached a depth of 131,432 meters, he suddenly stopped his dive.

Not because he had reached the seabed and couldn’t dive any further,

but because, suddenly, a vast palace appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

A familiar palace—the Palace of Water God.

Lin Zichen was stunned.

His entire being froze on the spot.

The Palace of Water God was supposedly in Shen Qinghan’s Sea of Consciousness, so how could it suddenly appear here out of nowhere?

The strangest part was that, although the Palace of Water God was right in front of him, he couldn’t sense its presence and could only see it with his eyes.

It was like a mirage, visible but untouchable.

Merely a false illusion.

…

Above,

the Night King quietly sensed every movement of Lin Zichen, not showing any emotional fluctuations despite Lin Zichen’s increasing dive depth gradually exceeding his sensory range in the ocean.

Before allowing Lin Zichen to dive and escape, the Night King had already embedded a spiritual imprint inside Lin Zichen’s body.
