The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 953: Resonance



As Vaan continued to sink to the ocean floor, he saw many more species of marine life.

There were small and weak shrimps as well as large and powerful whales. The vast blue ocean was thriving with marine life, far more than the land. Even so, all were only food for the Black Serpent Clan in this sea region.

Nevertheless, it was said that Pangea used to be a planet of black toxic water. It was incredible how life could exist after the Golden Dragon Pangea died and become one with the world.

Even the supposed toxic black ocean had been purified into a clear blue sea, even if it was only limited to the inner sea.

Moreover, the purification was supposedly caused by Golden Dragon Pangea's blood spilling into the sea. As such, if all life was born from her blood, they should all have tiny traces of the Golden Dragon Bloodline.

Given life practically started a million years ago, the Golden Dragon Bloodline would have diluted into obscurity over the long passage of time.

It made Vaan even more curious how pure Golden Dragon Blood was preserved to the present

era.

If the Celestial Kingdom and Black Serpent unearthed an untapped inheritance of Pangea recently, then it wasn't all that special.

On the other hand, it would be quite interesting if they had used special methods to collect the scattered bloodline and pass on the pure bloodline from generation to generation.

If Vaan could monopolize it, he could help Astoria and the Red Dragon Clan improve their strengths immensely.

Given the sheer size of Golden Dragon Pangea, there would definitely be too much Golden Dragon Blood for his personal usage. As such, it only made sense for him to consider the other's wellbeing.

More importantly, he possessed limitless life energy and the Everlasting Blood Refining Art. It wouldn't be impossible for him to increase the quantity of Golden Dragon Blood from a single drop.

Furthermore, if a superior ancestral bloodline was hidden in the Golden Dragon Blood, it could also draw it out with the Everlasting Blood Refining Art.

Nevertheless, none of that mattered a present.

Vaan was more concerned about the strengthening of his Boundless Sea and Sky Aura. It was growing on its own the moment he entered the vast body of seawater.

All of the purest water elements were rushing to nourish his soul and body, and even the water spirits emerged with subservient intents to serve him.

Although Vaan knew Varuna, the Lord of the Boundless Seas and Skies, was a master of the Water Law and Wind Law, he didn't expect to experience such startling improvements in the Western Sea.

After all, if it was purely the benefit of coming into contact with the element of his first life, why didn't he experience such big changes when he flew in the sky, the domain of wind? Why was it only happening in the Western Sea? - Vaan wondered.

Ding!

<Your water affinity has reached a certain threshold>

<Your Astral God Divine Body has gained a sub-physique, Water Spirit Body>

<Your Water Authority has been restored to First-stage Divine-rank>

...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Within a short time, Vaan had effortlessly acquired the Water Spirit Body. Although it was only at a low rank, it was still improving.

Ding!

<You have been blessed by the water spirits>

<You can hear the voices of the water spirits>

<You can communicate with marine life>

<You can breathe underwater>

--

Vaan was immediately surprised by his new abilities. Before entering a contract with a Water Spirit, he could already communicate their kind.

The Water Spirits were giving him too much favor.

Nevertheless, when Vaan looked down, he did not see a single trace of one. There wasn't a single Water Spirit in the area.

So, where were the blessings of the Water Spirits coming from?

When Vaan focused his senses, he found it to be coming from everywhere. It was the water itself that was giving him the blessing of water.

The incomplete water spirits hidden in the water elements were subconsciously blessing him before they had even formed their independent consciousness and manifested into the world. This kind of miraculous phenomenon was far too unnatural.

Something wasn't right.

Ding!

<Your Boundless Sea and Sky Aura is resonating with another source of Boundless Sea and Sky Aura>

With that one line from the system, the scattered pieces of the puzzle came together and formed a complete picture in Vaan's mind.

He could receive such a strong blessing from the water element because everything in the Boundless Sea might have originated from the water aspect of his Boundless Sea and Sky Aura in the first place.

Vaan was aware that the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura were only a minuscule fraction of what it once was during Varuna's life.

However, he didn't expect to find other traces of it on Pangea, which had yet to integrate with Chaos fully.

Nevertheless, after Vaan tried to sense out the location of the other source of Boundless Sea and Sky Aura, he discovered it was very far-somewhere in the southern outer sea region.

Since it was in a completely different sea region, he could only look for it another time.

--

When Vaan arrived on the ocean floor, Vaan found it to be a rather unforgiving place despite its beautiful silver-white glow, which resembled the moon in the night sky.

The energy-depleted Deep-Sea Steel ocean floor was covered in a thick layer of white sand.

However, this white sand wasn't quartz; it was coral fragments and the bone powdery remains of marine life. It was hard to imagine how much marine life was lost over the years to form such a vast and thick sandy ocean floor.

Nevertheless, this wasn't why the ocean floor was an unforgiving place.

The ocean floor was an unforgiving place because it was a region of radioactive seawater. The super-heavy water was both colorless and corrosive. Ordinary life forms wouldn't be able to

sense the danger.

As such, when they enter the region, they would just become additions to the white graveyard. Even if they briefly entered and escaped quickly right after, their limited time would have already started ticking.

Only Transcendent-rank life forms and above were immune to the invisible damage of this

region.
