"Thereās nothing wrong with exploring the world. If thereās any Divine Origin, itās a great profit."
Xu Ranās eyes gleamed brightly, appreciating the beautiful sacrificial scene before him, and then he surfaced.
He picked up the badge and communicated with the principal: "Principal, the underwater altar is already completed. I need to check out other parts of the ocean."
Principal: "You werenāt injured, right?"
"No, hahaha..."
The principal was puzzled: "Why are you laughing?"
Xu Ran: "Hahaha, I remembered something amusing."
The principal, a bit bewildered: "What happened? Care to share?"
Xu Ran thought for a moment but decided not to say. Such things are very vexing, just like those damn cliffhangers.
"Iām heading to patrol the sea now."
Xu Ran hung up the phone.
However, he didnāt rush out immediately but descended once more.
Admiring his masterpiece.
The gigantic sacrificial decomposition transformation array, endless, swirling like a nebula, drawing all pollution into it. Unfortunate Resentful Beasts investigating the situation were instantly engulfed by the arrayās expanding light, dragged into the array, turned into a floating leaf, and pressed into the vortex, most certainly transforming into Spiritual Qi.
Xu Ran clicked his tongue in wonder.
From pollution to Spiritual Qi, from sin to vitality, the array nurtures greatness.
"What should this array be named?"
He suddenly remembered he hadnāt yet claimed the right to name it.
"Great Compassion Array."
"Alright, itās called the Great Compassion Array."
Converting pollution, Resentful Beasts, Ghosts, and Crystal Beasts into Spiritual Qi, returning it to heaven and earth to nourish them, isnāt this compassion?
As for the distortion and wails of polluted creatures before death, itās a beautiful tableau of hell being emptiedākilling to save, truly great compassion!
Xu Ran was quite satisfied with his naming skills.
Itās a hundred times better than the principalās.
Perfect.
Xu Ranās lips curled up, his gaze directed to the east.
There lies an underwater mountain range.
Yes, there are mountain ranges underwater, and the underwater mountains are even grander than those on land, especially in the depths of the Pacific Ocean, where magma from within the earthās crust occasionally erupts upwards, forming massive mountain ranges.
The mountain range Xu Ran saw was several times more magnificent than the worldās roof.
Intense geological activity had driven elements from the earthās core into the mountains, forming the finest ore veins on Blue Star.
Accurately speaking, the underwater mountain range he viewed wasnāt a series of mountains but rather massive ore deposits!
The mineral density was extremely high; they could be used directly without smelting.
Typically.
Humans couldnāt possibly mine these ore veins completely.
Neither the power nor the scientific technology allowed for it.
Even the top-ranked Godslaying Squad wouldnāt stand a chance underwater, battling divine-level monsters, and win.
The deep ocean has terrifying pressure, reducing divine-level warriorsā combat effectiveness by at least half.
Only Xu Ran, blessed by the Water God, could walk as if on level land, unharmed, even able to unleash his fighting power.
From afar, looking at the mountain range.
Xu Ran felt compelled.
He must create a Teleportation Array; otherwise, it would take four days to travel here each time, exhausting him to death.
While contemplating.
His figure darted like a shuttle, transformed into a swimming fish, rushing toward the mining area.
Reaching the mountain rangeās outskirts.
Xu Ran saw a squad of Resentful Beasts. They noticed the commotion in the Undersea City, the abundant Spiritual Qi gushing out, making them feel nauseated and uncomfortable.
Thus.
A group of Resentful Beasts clustered around a massive squid leader, swimming toward the Undersea City like a school of fish...
Strings of bubbles in the water seemed like boiling water.
"Strutting around, utterly unaware of their limits, not even acknowledging me."
Xu Ran rushed forward headlong.
His Qi blood boiling, the overwhelming momentum propelled the sea waves, surging out layer by layer.
Resentful Beasts were toppled, spinning in the sea.
The Resentful Beasts, startled, stabilized themselves amid the waves, looked at Xu Ran in the distance, bewildered.
A human?
A human reached the seabed?
Isnāt this courting death?
The squid leader screamed.
A piercing arrow split the water, meeting its vast army.
Yet.
Its scream was futile.
The Undersea City didnāt send its forces.
The squid leader raised its head to scream again!
Still no response.
How could this be?
The squid leader tilted its head, but suddenly its head flew off, the powerful underwater pressure forcing all its guts out, swaying like a kite string being pulled out underwater.
The other Resentful Beasts were terrified, turning to flee.
Xu Ran, however, flicked his arm, sending out the Paperman Legion, slaughtering the Resentful Beast squad thoroughly.
"Hah."
Xu Ran sneered, darting into the mining area.
The mountains lay in clusters, with dozens of ten-thousand-meter-high mountains, all composed of ore veins, glowing with starry dots of fluorescence, looking extraordinary.
Approaching closely.
Observing the ore veins carefully, Xu Ran was amazed and delighted: "Goodness, truly a massive treasure. If transported to land, every city could build a huge pollution-decomposing altar."
"Huaxia would no longer suffer from pollution erosion. It would become a pure land."
Is a Supreme God descending?
No, itās Spiritual Qi Recovery!
Xu Ran chuckled.
Entering the Resentful Beastsā mining area.
Drawing a long blade, he began cutting into the mountain.
Since the ore is abundant, heāll construct a larger Teleportation Array.
Thus.
Twelve thirty-meter-high, two-meter-diameter stone columns were carved by him.
The Paperman Legion transported them to the edge of the Undersea City.
The Undersea City is nine thousand meters from the ore veins, a safe distance ensuring strong geological activity wonāt affect it here.
