The old man was standing by the river, fishing with a fishing rod without bait.
The breeze is strong and the river is rippling.
It seems exceptionally peaceful here, which is different from the turmoil in other places in the Palace of the Sea.
"You can't catch fish without bait," Xu Zimo said calmly as he fell down from the steps.
"The bait is here," the old man pointed out.
As soon as he finished speaking, the fishing rod in his hand began to shake.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
In the river, countless fish seemed to be going crazy and bit towards the old man's fishing rod.
The originally calm river suddenly became turbulent, and these fish showed no warning, as if the fishing rod had a special charm.
The old man raised his right hand, and in an instant more than a dozen fish flew out of the river.
It was obvious that he was moving quickly. He immediately set up a barbecue rack by the river and placed the fish in it to grill.
During this period, some condiments are added from time to time.
The old man sat on a stone by the river, completely ignoring that his clothes were getting wet from the river water.
After the fish were cooked, he threw a few fish to Xu Zimo.
He smiled and said, "It's great to have friends from far away."
Then the old man started eating by himself. He opened his mouth and swallowed more than a dozen fish at once.
While eating, I listened to him say: "This river leads directly to the Immortal Island.
There is a super powerful force in the Immortal Island, Baiming Sect, which is rich in golden fish.
They insist on releasing the golden fish and swimming along the river to our Sea Palace."
Hearing this, Xu Zimo was thinking.
What is the meaning of what the old man said?
The Baiming Sect has surrendered to the Sea Beast Clan?
This is not impossible. Some people on Immortal Island sacrificed their lives to protect their homeland, and naturally some people surrendered in order to survive.
No matter where or in any era, there is no shortage of creatures like traitors.
"Baiming Sect?
I’ve never heard of cats and dogs,” Xu Zimo waved his hand.
The old man wanted to use Baiming Sect to test the pressure, and wanted to tell Xu Zimo before the negotiations started.
As strong as their sea beast clan is, they also have internal support in the Immortal Island.
But Xu Zimo didn't talk to him at all, and Baiming Sect was not worth mentioning.
He doesn't care at all whether the Immortal Island is good or bad. Even if the sea beasts wipe out all the Immortal Island, Xu Zimo will not blink an eye.
He only cares about whether Old Man Shu is the corpse he is looking for.
"Since I'm here, let's get down to business and stop talking nonsense."
Xu Zimo said directly.
"Immortal Island is preparing to attack the Death Swamp and will need your help when the time comes.
Only by uniting together can we have a chance of winning."
When the old man heard this, he burst into laughter.
"You want us to work with those blood eaters?"
In the eyes of the sea beasts, the humans on the Immortal Island are blood food, the blood food for the resurrection of the old tree.
Xu Zimo was not polite and said directly: "What about you? Don't you eat blood?"
"So what, as long as you kill those humans, it will be difficult for Old Man Shu to resurrect if he doesn't have enough blood food," the old man replied calmly.
"You are wrong. If Old Man Shu wants to be resurrected, none of you blood eaters can escape."
Xu Zimo shook his head and said: "From the moment your bloodline was changed, you have been unable to help yourself.
You have no choice but to defeat Old Man Shu."
"Furthermore, Old Man Shu cannot be resurrected. If he really dies, all of you bloodline people will not be able to escape death either."
"No one can guarantee what has never happened. If it is true, it is fate."
The old man shook his head and replied.
"In short, Old Man Shu cannot resist.
If you enter the death swamp, you will die without life, and we, the sea beast family, can just take advantage of the fish warmth."
"Do you really think so?" Xu Zimo stared at the old man and smiled calmly.
"If Immortal Island loses this time, death will only make it harder for Old Man Shu to resurrect.
You, a clan of sea beasts, cannot escape. Once you are in the game, you are just a chess piece. You will never have peace until the chess player dies."
Hearing this, the old man was silent for a rare moment.
He is the leader of the sea beast clan and the true King of the Sea.
Naturally, you can’t deceive yourself when doing things.
He knows the current situation better than anyone.
It’s actually a dead end!
Old Man Tree is invincible.
"The God Emperor can't defeat the Death Swamp, so why do you?"
Neptune asked about his concerns.
You must know that this is not a matter of winning or losing.
In this war, almost everything is on the line.
If you lose, there will be nothing left.
It is precisely because of this that both Neptune and Immortal Island are cautious.
Because no one can afford the price of failure.
Hearing Neptune's words, Xu Zimo smiled.
"Gather all your strength to fight the Death Swamp. This is your last chance.
You are lucky because you met me, otherwise you will definitely fail this time."
Xu Zimo stretched out his right hand, and the power of the curse lingered on his fingertips.
The power of the curse is extremely real.
Seeing Xu Zimo's right hand, Neptune's expression changed.
He grabbed Xu Zimo's right hand.
"The cursed body, yes, it is the cursed body. Did you succeed?"
You must know that regarding the issue of the Cursed Body, not only the Immortal Island, but the entire sea beast clan is also studying it.
It's a pity that no matter who it is, no research has been successful.
As long as you have a cursed body, you don't need to be afraid of the power of the curse.
The most fundamental problem of the Death Swamp has been solved.
"It wasn't us, it was me who solved it," Xu Zimo said.
"You can't, because this is the only way.
It’s not that I’m stingy, so I am your hope now.”
"Let me think about it again," Neptune said thoughtfully.
The amount of information was a bit too much for him.
Maybe this is the only chance.
But you might lose.
"How is it?" Xu Zimo asked.
After a while, Neptune stood up and said, "I am willing, but although I am the clan leader, this matter is too big after all.
I need to discuss this with the rest of the clan."
"Yes, but my time is limited. I hope to get the answer today," Xu Zimo replied.
Neptune nodded.
Suddenly he said: "Why don't you come and listen? If you have any questions, you can answer them on the spot."
"It seems that the sea beast clan is not of the same mind," Xu Zimo said with a pointed smile.
Neptune waved his hand.
I saw him open his hands and roar.
This seems to be some kind of signal.
In an instant, the entire Sea Palace was in turmoil.
Suppose that during Xu Zimo's battle just now, some sea beasts were alarmed.
So now, all the seabeds have woken up from their slumber.
Neptune shouted softly.
"Can you please wait for me in the meeting hall, Elder Seven Martial Gods?"
Xu Zimo and Neptune jumped into the air at the same time, with Neptune leading the way.
The meeting hall of the sea beast clan is actually a sea area. When Xu Zimo arrived, there were already several behemoths sitting here.
Within the sea beast family, it seems that except for Neptune, all other sea beasts are extremely huge.
