Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1172 - 417: Other Shore, Landlubber 3

Jing Qiu entered Chaohua Mountain earlier than he had anticipated, this kid hadn't reached the expected height yet, and there was a possibility of an unexpected occurrence inside.

Yet, with his current performance, Jing Qiu could fully live up to his expectations.

With a slight change in thought, Chao Ge began to guide the other two Tribulation Embryos, forcing them under the urging of the Killing Tribulation, to move towards Chaohua Mountain.

...

There was no concept of time here.

Jing Qiu walked in the vast Bitter Sea for an indeterminate length of time, without seeing any living being besides himself.

It was not until he surfaced, walking atop the sea, that he saw ahead what seemed to be mist akin to the mist of time outside.

He walked towards the mist, and upon getting closer, saw a woman standing silently within it.

Through the mist, her form was vague, yet her unparalleled elegance and a very peculiar aura were still perceptible.

Dao Rhyme permeated all around, she slowly turned her head and felt Jing Qiu's gaze, her aura was ethereal and transcendent, elegant and dignified.

Those eyes seemed to pierce through time, landing on Jing Qiu.

Jing Qiu appeared equally solemn.

In the Bitter Sea, could there really be someone else standing?

Could she be related to the Transcenders?

Or perhaps a top-tier True Saint?

In the mist, she seemed to be speaking, yet her voice sounded as though it was coming from a very far-off place:

"Have you also seen the reality of the world? Will you join us?"

Join? Or "us"?

Jing Qiu frowned, scrutinizing the woman, and said, "Who are you?"

"The ones who glimpse the truth, seeking the Other Shore across the vast Bitter Sea."

The woman's voice was misty and light, like whispers from a dream.

"Other Shore?" Jing Qiu had a certain suspicion and proactively probed, "You speak of the shore? I came from the shore."

In an instant, the woman's originally ethereal and transcendent aura suddenly changed, gradually becoming aggressive, as if donned in armor, ready to strike at any moment.

"Are you joking with me?"

The misty words also turned cold, as if the temperature dropped by dozens of degrees.

Jing Qiu continued scrutinizing her, suddenly saying, "You don't seem as strong as I imagined."

The woman said indifferently, "Just a projection, and so are you, killing you remains as easy as a snap, and afterward, I will trace back to find the coordinates of your true body, you can't escape, either join us or become dust."

Jing Qiu's heart shook, could she truly be a Supreme expert?

Wait a minute...

Could these people be the reason forcing Chao Ge to have no choice but to break through?

He suppressed the shock in his heart, attempting to gather more information from her.

But she quickly realized that what Jing Qiu knew was not in line with their identity, her gaze cold, she actually took the initiative to step out of the mist.

Dressed in Qingyi, impossibly beautiful yet overwhelmingly strong, standing in the Bitter Sea, yet exuding a detached aura.

"Who are you, and how did you infiltrate this place?"

She spoke sternly, directly reaching out to grab Jing Qiu's neck.

Jing Qiu suddenly noticed that although she seemed to stand on the sea surface, there was a layer separating her feet from the water.

His eyes flickered, he endured a blow from her, taking the opportunity to dive into the seawater, witnessing this, she was obviously shocked, completely not expecting Jing Qiu to dare to sink into the Bitter Sea.

Jing Qiu seized the moment, grabbing her legs, pulling her into the water.

In an instant, the woman revealed panic, as if she didn't know how to swim, floundering wildly.

Jing Qiu was already at a distance, watching coldly.

In the end, he confirmed that the woman wasn't acting, but truly "couldn't swim."

Because halfway into sinking into the deep sea, she melted into a long string of bubbles, leaving no trace from outside to inside.

The Bitter Sea returned to its silence.

Jing Qiu furrowed his brow, murmuring:

"I thought Chao Ge concealed some incredible secret, turns out it was merely a projection of the Bitter Sea."

"I assumed this woman was very strong, only to find she was merely a landlubber who couldn't swim."

"What on earth is all this..."
