Chapter 282: Chapter 231: In Front of the Hall Chapter 282: Chapter 231: In Front of the Hall Su Yuan took the bead and followed the guidance, flying all the way.
As he was about to reach his destination, a trace of surprise appeared in Su Yuan’s eyes.
“It’s actually a sea of fog…”
While flying, Su Yuan looked ahead.
All he could see was an endless sea of fog.
Even though Su Yuan was flying high, it was difficult to see its edge.
In this Sea City Ruins, the mist was quite abundant, and many places were shrouded in fog.
However, for such a vast sea of fog to appear was quite astonishing.
Su Yuan flew closer.
At this moment, there were a dozen people standing at the edge of the sea of fog, and Liu Congyun and Zhu Ming happened to be among them.
“Captain Liu.”
Su Yuan descended from mid-air, walking a few steps towards the group.
Liu Congyun, in surprise, said, “Su Yuan, you came too?”
Zhu Ming was also quite stunned, not expecting to see Su Yuan here.
Earlier, several Gold Level captains on B-3 Island had responded to the military’s call and took a ship here.
They were quite puzzled not to see Su Yuan on the ship, and now they were surprised by his sudden appearance.
Su Yuan said, “I came after receiving the notice later.”
“I see…”
Liu Congyun nodded, thinking Su Yuan was referring to coming over later from B-3 Island, not realizing Su Yuan had already been here for a while.
In fact, until now, Liu Congyun and the others only knew there was a major battle on B-6 Island with heavy losses.
They didn’t know the specific situation.
Su Yuan asked, “What are you doing here?”
Liu Congyun said gravely, “The key to the resurrection of the Demon King seems to be in here.
But to enter, we need a round pearl to guide the way.
Otherwise, it’s impossible to distinguish the direction inside the sea of fog.
You would just walk out again.
We just arrived not long ago.
Everyone tried, but it didn’t work.
Fortunately, although we can’t go inside, we won’t get lost in the sea of fog.
Otherwise, it would have been troublesome.”
A round pearl?
Su Yuan took out a water-colored bead from his chest and asked, “Is this it?”
To sense direction, Su Yuan kept the bead in his chest.
However, the bead was so peculiar it couldn’t be kept in his ring.
Seeing Su Yuan take out the bead, not only Liu Congyun but also Zhu Ming and the others around, including the students and military warriors, showed a look of surprise.
“This is it!
Su Yuan, how did you get this?”
“I saw some sea beasts fighting over it, so I snatched it.”
Upon hearing this, everyone was even more astonished.
Although Su Yuan spoke casually, everyone knew this was the thing many sea beasts were desperately searching for.
It wasn’t easy to snatch it.
“Impressive!” A handsome boy beside them asked, “Liu Congyun, who is this…?”
“This is Su Yuan from our academy.”
The handsome boy scratched his head, “Su Yuan?
I don’t think I’ve heard of him before…
Is he a junior?”
“No…” Liu Congyun had a strange look, “He’s a sophomore.”
“???”
…
Su Yuan said, “Has anyone from our side gone in?”
Liu Congyun replied, “I know President Qin Jia has gone in, and he has been inside for quite some time.”
“President Qin Jia?”
Su Yuan looked thoughtful, remembering that this person was quite a rule-abiding individual, very different from the previous president Qi Tian.
However, among the three vice presidents, the faculty and former student council president Qi Tian ultimately decided on him as the new president, naturally recognizing his ability.
Now, he was also a Gold High Stage Blue Card Star Card Master, one of the top experts of Demon Capital Academy.
With him going in first, the situation shouldn’t be too bad.
But Liu Congyun looked worried, “Although President Qin Jia has gone in, the situation is still not optimistic.
According to the information we have gathered, at least three or four sea beasts have already gone in, and they are all Gold High Stage Master Sea Beasts.
I hope President Qin can find the key to the resurrection of the Demon King smoothly and not get hurt in a confrontation with the sea beasts inside…”
Su Yuan nodded and, gripping the bead, prepared to enter the sea of fog.
At this moment, a shocking water-colored light pillar suddenly surged from within the sea of fog, shooting straight into the sky!
Liu Congyun and the others’ faces changed, “Could it be…!”
The resurrection of the Demon King, though uncertain, was absolutely bad news for the many students here!
“It shouldn’t have happened yet,” Su Yuan said seriously, looking at the water-colored light pillar.
“But the situation is indeed bad.
It looks like the sea beasts have already started.”
Su Yuan could feel the energy in the water-colored light pillar was not too high yet, but it was steadily increasing at a moderate pace.
Without saying more, Su Yuan said, “I’ll go first.”
Liu Congyun solemnly said, “Alright, we will also try to find other beads around here, although we don’t know if it will be in time.”
“Please!” Zhu Ming and others said.
Su Yuan nodded and then leapt into the sea of fog…
Outside Yunze Lake, Rong Fangsheng, Hou Wu, and others were quietly watching the lake.
At this moment, Rong Fangsheng suddenly sensed something, his expression changing slightly as he looked at the lake.
In the next moment, a water-colored light pillar burst out from the lake, shooting straight into the sky.
“These sea beasts are quite fast.” Hou Wu, standing behind Rong Fangsheng, raised an eyebrow.
“It seems the situation is becoming a bit dire.”
The expressions of the other experts by the lake also grew grimmer.
Rong Fangsheng folded his arms, silently staring at the water-colored light pillar.
…
In the sea of fog ruins.
Su Yuan held the bead, continuously moving forward guided by it through the white fog.
Gradually, the fog grew thinner, and the scene before him changed drastically.
It seemed as though he had entered some sort of temple; surrounding him were various ancient, mysterious, and decayed buildings.
These buildings appeared to be able to absorb moisture from the air to repair themselves.
Despite the many years, they remained relatively intact and sturdy.
Ahead, in the distance, a soaring water-colored light pillar stood out unmistakably.
Su Yuan did not pause for a moment and quickened his pace to rush over.
…
In the great hall where the black gold slab was kept, the black gold stone slab hovered in mid-air, with seven of its ten slots already filled.
The runes on the slab were all lit up, with the energy in the seven beads constantly being absorbed by the central Original Mark.
The dull Original Mark glowed, pulsing like a breath, growing stronger.
And the entire hall seemed to be activated by this, with the water-colored light pillar shooting up from the great hall.
At the hall’s entrance, the green-haired youth and another purple-haired youth who had arrived first blocked the door.
Outside the hall, in the plaza, three sea beasts attacked two people.
One of them was none other than the current student council president of Demon Capital Academy, Qin Jia.
The other, wearing a military uniform, was an expert from the military, stationed on A-1 Island’s sharp knife squad, named Lin Xin.
As for the three sea beasts attacking the two, they were not ordinary sea beasts.
The Sea Trampling Dragon Turtle, Tidal Battle Beast, and Cold Crystal Sea Lion—all of them were Master Star Beasts, on par with the Black Water Jade Qilin Beast!

Furthermore, the star power fluctuations of these three sea beasts were astonishing; they were all Gold High Stage!
“Shouldn’t this be enough?” The green-haired youth glanced back at the floating slab in the hall and asked the purple-haired youth beside him.
The purple-haired youth nodded slightly, “It should be enough.
Each additional Source Pearl speeds up the revival.
With seven Source Pearls now, the resurrection should be completed in no more than an hour.”
The green-haired youth snorted, “If Hei Lin, Lanshan, and Qiuyun hadn’t failed to bring back the Source Pearls, we could have revived him directly with three more pearls!”
The purple-haired youth remained calm, “No matter.
Once the Destiny Plate is activated, it can continuously absorb energy from the ruins and the outside world.
It just means waiting a little longer.
An hour is not enough for the human lower three levels’ elite to arrive without pre-set space transmission barriers.
Once he is successfully resurrected, even temporarily reaching the Gold Limit, he can take us safely back to the South Sea.”
The green-haired youth suddenly thought of something, lowered his voice, and asked, “After the resurrection, he won’t turn on us, will he?”
“He shouldn’t,” the purple-haired youth replied.
“Firstly, this is a resurrection, not a rebirth.
Secondly, according to the king, the Destiny Plate is inscribed with memories of his past life to prevent any resurrection mishaps.
Once he recovers his memory upon resurrection, he naturally wouldn’t harm us.”
“That’s good…” The green-haired youth nodded, secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
“However…” The purple-haired youth suddenly mused.
“What is it?” The green-haired youth turned to look.
“I remember, the king asked us to find eight Source Pearls, right?”
The green-haired youth nodded, “Yes, eight.”
The purple-haired youth pointed towards the floating black gold slab in the hall, “But the Destiny Plate has ten slots.”
“No idea, maybe there were originally ten, but two are missing?”
The purple-haired youth pondered but couldn’t figure it out.
He could only nod, “Maybe…”
