Chapter 1355: Chapter 29: Pioneering the Seas_2 Chapter 1355: Chapter 29: Pioneering the Seas_2 âYouâve also cultivated the Yuanci True Method, so you should be aware of the danger posed by the Yuanci Membrane Eye.
Why then do you act so recklessly?
Your death is inconsequential, but what about Senior Rui and Senior Xiang?â
Daoist Yuanci heard Qin Lingxiaoâs words, yet didnât get angry.
Instead, he remained calm and composed:
âI am confident, but youâve cultivated too rapidly, and your Dao-heart is flawed.
You need to refine your mind further to avoid being unable to control your own Yuanci mana.â
After speaking, without any visible motion, an invisible force gently pushed him, moving him toward the seafloor where water churned and bubbles swirled.
Seeing that she couldnât persuade Daoist Yuanci, and he even gave her a lesson, Qin Lingxiao stamped her foot in frustration.
The white dragon below cried out in pain, twisting its head to fly upwards immediately.
...
However, it realized in shock that it couldnât move at all.
Glancing at Qin Lingxiao, it understood the intentions of its master and, with a reluctant sigh, quickly swam down toward the seafloor.
Countless bubbles obscured the view all around.
As the water level declined, the Yuanci forces in the seawater became increasingly terrifying.

At around several miles from the seafloor riverbed below, the white dragon struggled to a stop, a hint of effort flashing through its eyes.
Feeling the white dragonâs pain, a flicker of distress crossed Qin Lingxiaoâs eyes.
Yet, looking below to where the interference of the bubbles allowed only a vague sight, she could still faintly see the figure of Daoist Yuanci continuing to descend.
âHis incarnation doesnât seem as cautious as he is!â
Qin Lingxiao couldnât help but curse under her breath before quickly retracting the white dragon and condensing Yuanci mana into a barrier around her, isolating the amazingly dense Yuanci force.
Then, using the Yuanci around her, she pressed herself downward.
Numerous bubbles faced her, and this time the violent currents could not be dodged or pushed aside as before, instead slamming directly against Qin Lingxiaoâs Yuanci barrier.
Fortunately, although the currents were awe-inspiring, they could hardly have much effect on a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After a bout of navigating,
she vaguely sensed cracks appearing in the Yuanci barrier around her, with the external Yuanci seeping in.
âIâm reaching the limit,â Qin Lingxiaoâs eyes held a hint of reluctance.
âI canât descend any further.
If too much Yuanci is squeezed inside me, I wonât be able to bear it.â
But just as she was about to give up,
the bubbles below suddenly thinned out.
âAm I reaching the bottom?â
After hesitating momentarily, Qin Lingxiao finally gritted her teeth and took out a pill that seemed extremely precious from her Storage Treasure and swallowed it.
Then she dove headfirst down.
Soon after, the bubbles suddenly vanished.
Her vision abruptly cleared up.
In the tranquil and mysterious depths of the dark sea, the seafloor was vaguely visible due to elevated mountain ridges overhead, peppered with faint bright spots.
And surrounded by sea beasts with obscure auras swimming aroundâŠ
While Daoist Yuanci stood not far away, his expression grave as he looked downwards.
Sensing Qin Lingxiaoâs arrival, he glanced back in slight surprise, then returned his gaze below.
Qin Lingxiao swam over with determination.
Looking down, she couldnât see anything specific, yet she could clearly sense that the concentration of Yuanci below had reached an unspeakably immense level.
âThe Membrane Eye is just below, isnât it?â
Though phrased as a question, her tone was filled with certainty.
She had been to this Membrane Eye before but only at the periphery, nowhere near as deeply as now.
Daoist Yuanci nodded slightly, then pointed downwards and drew a circle, uttering a sentence that instantaneously changed Qin Lingxiaoâs expression:
âThis area, itâs all Membrane Eye now.â
âThis, all of it?â Qin Lingxiao looked at Daoist Yuanci in disbelief before she couldnât help but look down again.
Concentrating her vision.
Only then did she shockingly realize that what she saw were not raised mountains at all, but rather the light from distant stars in the far Realm Sea shining through the Membrane EyeâŠ
The Membrane Eye was so vast!
Yet no seawater was leaking out; instead, Yuanci force continually spread all around like an outpouringâŠ
âThe calamity of Yuanci is perhaps much more severe than anyone imagined,â even Daoist Yuanciâs ever-calm face now bore a trace of gravity.
The original Membrane Eye was at most the size of a millstone, yet the current Yuanci Membrane Eye was as vast as a pond.
If this situation continued unchecked, it was feared that it wouldnât be too long before the Little Cang World would be covered by Yuanci, even if it wasnât breached by the World Eaters, obliterating the very foundation for Cultivatorsâ existence.
âLetâs return first.â
After surveying the area a few times, Daoist Yuanci didnât delay and immediately flew towards the surface.
However, he didnât get far before suddenly stopping, his gaze tensely shifting to look back at Qin Lingxiao.
At that moment, Qin Lingxiaoâs eyes were filled with urgency, yet her body seemed frozen, completely unable to move, not even able to produce a sound.
The mana of Yuanci on her was immensely dense.
A chill ran through Daoist Yuanciâs heart, not daring to delay for even a moment, he quickly reached out to clear the Yuanci mana around Qin Lingxiao.
Then with a gentle push, he took Qin Lingxiao and flew upwards with her.
As they rose, the Yuanci mana on Qin Lingxiao also gradually thinned, and suddenly, her body shuddered and she then freed herself with a blush from Daoist Yuanciâs protection.
âThank you, thank you very much.â
