Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Meanwhile, at the spot where Alex just disappeared, a figure suddenly appeared, like she had been standing there for a long time.

A beautiful, translucent wing came out from her back, and her eyes looked at the portal, which quickly disappeared like it was never there.

But Alice's gaze didn't leave the spot; her eyes lingered on it as many thoughts came to her mind.

"What should I choose, Mother." She mumbled.

SPLASH!

Alex and MingYue found themselves in the middle of the ocean.

The water was crystal clear, while a large moon hung in the sky.

Alex took out a yacht from his storage ring, then jumped onto it, drying their clothes with Qi.

"Vesa, how about now? Know where we are?" Alex asked while he survey their surroundings, which revealed only ocean with no land in sight.

[No, but I can detect the progenitor blood; it's located deep under the sea.]

Alex frowned looking at the map displayed by Vesa. Their goal was deep under the sea.

Tap.

A small sound reached his ears, prompting him to turn his head.

His lips curled into a smile, "It's been a while, MingYue. You look even more beautiful."

"Glib tongue," MingYue replied, her cheeks blushing red.

"Get serious, Alex. Vesa says the target is underwater.

Any ideas?

We can enter using Qi or Mana to survive there, but that will be limited. If we add fighting to the mix, it will become too risky."

"If I had known this would happen, I would have bought a submarine," Alex mumbled.

"A submarine?"

"Basically, an underwater vehicle, but wait, I think Emily has some potions so we can breathe underwater, but they will only last for a few hours."

MingYue looked around the yacht, which was a simple one, equipped with a couch, mini fridge, and some deck space for people to rest.

"Why don't you just carve a protective array on the yacht? As long as it can keep the water out, it should work."

'Damn, how did I miss that?' Alex thought to himself. "I'll start then."

"I'll try to explore the surrounding area as you do your work."

MingYue then started flying around the area. She didn't go too high, as she also wanted to see under the sea.

She saw colorful small fish swimming around, passing through plants and coral.

The fish didn't look dangerous; they had many beautiful patterns on their bodies.

"So this is the ocean," MingYue mumbled.

This was the first time she had seen one, other than in movies she got from Alex.

'I wonder if oceans in my world look the same.'

As she looked around the area, her eyes could see all the way to the seabed, but the deeper she went, the deeper the ocean became.

The fish started growing larger, and more animal variety came into view.

Some looked like turtles, while others resembled insects walking on the floor, like crabs and lobsters.

The plants also started changing, becoming scarce, with some vines rising higher.

She then spotted some cavern entrances, 'Vesa said, it's directly underneath our spot. It seems we will need to explore this cavern system, or we could just dig a hole all the way to our target.'

As she was about to return, her eyes caught a glimpse of a dark silhouette that looked like an island.

MingYue changed her direction to check out the area. As she got closer, a surface appeared, glowing and filled with sand of myriad colors.

After some more observation, she realized the island was moving. She covered her body with Qi and then entered the water for a clearer view of the creature.

Under the island, a dozen tentacles emerged, rowing to move. They looked like those of a jellyfish, with transparent skin showing the inner workings of its flesh.

MingYue could also see many fish and coral growing underneath, creating their own small ecosystem.

MingYue was intrigued to kill and absorb its life force, but after some thought, she decided against it. She didn't know how the creature would retaliate; it was better to gather more information first.

She then flew back toward the yacht. Alex had already finished with the array and was now standing on the deck looking toward the seabed, considering whether to blow up the seabed to make a hole directly rather than taking the long way to their goal.

Feeling her presence, he asked, "How is it, MingYue?"

MingYue then shared her findings, adding, "I haven't met any civilization yet, but who knows if there are underwater species?"

"We have no choice then; let's explore the cavern. I doubt we have enough energy and explosives to blow it all up, and who knows what kind of trouble we will face.

If there are large creatures like that, I am sure there will be even bigger creatures," Alex sighed, then added.

"Our goal is 10,000 meters (about 32,808

feet) under the sea."

"It seems it will take a while then. I wonder just how this part reached this place."

"I think it dropped like a meteor, and as time passed, this planet underwent many geological transformations, pushing it even deeper."

Alex then released a few drones to scan the planet as the yacht started moving deep under the sea

.

The view was spectacular for MingYue, but Alex had seen similar things before in VR.

As they enjoyed the view, MingYue asked, "How is your sister?"

"Still in the same situation, but I've already given her enough life force; as long as nothing big happens, she should be alright."

"You should tell her to stay at your place and not do any missions then."

"Oh, I'm not worried about that; I'm sure now she is complaining as she got buried with paperwork. As the guild leader, there are many things that only she can approve," Alex replied with a chuckle.

He still remembered his father's daily routine; almost every day, he would be busy in his office with a mountain of documents to sign.

"Doesn't your planet have computers and the internet? Can't she just handle it all digitally?"
