"What do you know? This is our highest respect for the Water God!"

The young man yelled fiercely at Yang Tian.

"Are you all crazy? How can there still be people sending their women to be enjoyed in this day and age?" A hint of sarcasm flashed in Yang Tian's eyes, "How about this, you all send your women to me to enjoy, and I'll help you eliminate this so-called Water God, ensuring your village never has trouble from Water Demons again!"

Upon hearing Yang Tian's words, the faces of the crowd changed dramatically: "That's treasonous!"

Yang Tian shook his head: "It seems you are deeply enslaved!"

"Enough talk, everyone, go up and capture him, take him to the beach, and offer him to the Water God!"

The old village chief waved his hand.

Suddenly, one villager after another roared as they lunged at Yang Tian.

Yang Tian showed no mercy whatsoever.

He operated Spiritual Breath, struck out with a palm, and Spiritual Breath exploded in front of him, transforming into rays of Spiritual Aura, crackling and striking the people around him, who were originally defenseless men and women. In just one move, Yang Tian knocked them all down.

"A bunch of fools courting death!"

Yang Tian landed down and operated Divine Sense to probe the surroundings.

"Yang Tian, let's dive into the sea to find Ling Ying and Eliza. These villagers have become accustomed to being enslaved."

Wu Zetian arrived next to Yang Tian.

"Hmm." Yang Tian nodded, but soon he frowned. Previously, he followed the man and discovered a light ring deep in the ocean. Inside this ring should be the Water Demons' focus, but when he operated Divine Sense to probe again, he could no longer sense the position of the light ring: "This is troublesome, the Water Demons should have a focus in the ocean, but this place is mobile, I can't sense the focus now!"

"What should we do then?"

Guo Jing stared closely at Yang Tian.

Yang Tian shook his head and looked around. On the opposite hillside, he saw an old grandmother.

The grandmother held a wooden staff made of Agarwood, standing on the hillside, staring at Yang Tian, as if there was something she wanted to say to him.

"Mom, why are you here!"

The old village chief quickly saw the grandmother.

This grandmother was the old village chief's mother.

"Young man, can you really eliminate the Water God?"

To everyone's surprise, the grandmother suddenly asked.

"Mom, what's going on?"

The old village chief was visibly startled, and other villagers also climbed up from the ground, looking at the grandmother in confusion.

"Sixty years ago, I was offered to the Water God as the Saintess by the villagers, and those half-months were the most painful experience of my life!" The grandmother said with a trembling face, "They are not Water Gods, but beasts skilled in Martial Arts. They don't treat me as a human, torment me to death. No one knows better than me what lies beneath the sea!"

Upon hearing the grandmother's words, the villagers' faces all changed dramatically: "This is disrespect to the Water God..."

"I've waited sixty years, hoping someone will stand up for justice!" The grandmother spoke with conviction, staring at Yang Tian intently, "Young man, you said you could confront the Water God? Is it true?"

"Across the entire Earth, there's nothing I can't confront."

Yang Tian coldly replied.

"That's good!" A hint of fierceness flashed in the grandmother's eyes, "These beasts live in an underwater fortress, but this fortress is mobile, so for centuries, no one knows its exact location!"

"Grandmother, do you know where this fortress is?"

Wu Yue asked subconsciously.

"I don't know where the fortress is, but I can find it!" The grandmother said, and with a stretch of her hand, a red blood cloth appeared, exuding a cold aura. The grandmother just tied it on her wrist, and suddenly the blood cloth became agitated, constantly pointing forward.

Seeing this, Yang Tian nodded: "Grandmother, give it to us, and we'll go to the ocean to eliminate the so-called Water God now!"

"Bring me along! I have their Spiritual Breath in me, I can enter the fortress."

The grandmother said solemnly.

Hearing the grandmother's words, Yang Tian nodded: "Alright!"

"Mom, you've gone senile, you want to fight against the Water God?!"

The old village chief said anxiously.

Slap!

The grandmother slapped the old village chief's face: "If you don't fight the Water God, do you still want to be enslaved by them? When they want beauty, you send beauty, when they want to eat people, you send infants? These so-called Water Gods are all beasts! For hundreds of years, it's time for our Haihua Village to stand up and resist!"

The crowd fell into a dead silence upon hearing this.

"These beasts cast a curse on us, making our villagers unable to leave for generations. If we don't want to be enslaved, we'll fight to the death!"

The grandmother shouted again.

The villagers raised their heads, glanced at Yang Tian and the others, and then lowered their heads.

They were half-believing, half-doubtful about Yang Tian.

After a long silence, the old village chief finally gritted his teeth: "Alright! We'll follow your instructions!"

"Just stay here."

Yang Tian said calmly, beckoning Wu Zetian and preparing to dive into the ocean with the grandmother, while Guo Jing, Wu Yue, Liu Shi, and Wang Ying insisted on following. Yang Tian couldn't persuade them otherwise, so he had to let them join.

After a brief preparation, the grandmother instructed the villagers to prepare a yacht, and at noon, under the scorching sun, the yacht sailed out.

The grandmother stood on the yacht deck, her hand tied with the red blood scarf.

This blood scarf pointed forward, leading the group onward.

The yacht sailed for an entire day before stopping, by which time the blood scarf in the grandmother's hand had calmed down, and she pointed below the yacht: "If it's correct, they're down there!"

Yang Tian operated Divine Sense to probe the ocean below, quickly discovering a massive light ring floating deep in the sea.

He nodded: "Indeed here! We're going down, Jingjing, Yueyue, Shishi, Yingying, this time you must stay here!"

Yang Tian's attitude was very firm, allowing no rebuttal from Guo Jing, Wu Yue, Liu Shi, and Wang Ying.

The four women exchanged glances and helplessly said: "Alright, alright, we'll just wait here for you to return, Yang Tian, be careful..."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Yang Tian said and then proceeded to dive into the ocean with Wu Zetian and the grandmother.

Yang Tian operated Spiritual Breath, placing Spirit Breath Shield on the three, both to provide oxygen and to counter high water pressure.

The trio dove for a total of five hours before reaching the ocean Abyss, where a massive light ring quietly floated, and when Yang Tian operated Divine Sense to probe, he spotted a city inside...
