The head was like a Buddha, and the tail was like a butterfly. Their bodies were big and round. One was white, and the other was black. The two goldfish looked like lions. They swam around inside the Four Sheep Cube, looking very happy.
Bao 'er squatted near the edge of the Four Sheep Cube. She reached out her hand to grab the goldfish, but the goldfish were only twenty centimeters below the surface of the water. Her hand was almost in the water, but she couldn't get close to the two goldfish.
Han Sen frowned. He pulled out his Ghost Teeth Knife and stabbed the white fish in the water. The white fish was only twenty centimeters above the surface of the water, but when Han Sen stabbed it, the knife was already in the water. It was still quite a distance away from the white goldfish.
The two goldfish didn't seem to know what was happening. They continued to swim around slowly.
Han Sen frowned. Ghost Teeth Knife generated a Teeth Knife, and he stabbed it into the water again. The knife air was like the fangs of a demon. It went into the water. The knife air was able to tear through space, but it still couldn't touch the white goldfish.
The white goldfish was still swimming slowly. Its position hadn't changed much, but the twenty centimeters of water was like a galaxy away. No matter how strong Han Sen's knife air was, it couldn't go through the water and touch the goldfish.
"This Four Sheep Cube is a bit weird."
Han Sen's heart jumped. He reached out his hand and grabbed the cube. The water inside the cube was like a long river. Han Sen drew it out.
A lot of water gushed out. It was like a river that had burst its banks. The water kept flowing. It was almost a lake, but the water level inside the cube didn't seem to be dropping.
"What is this thing?"
Han Sen was shocked. The Four Sheep Cube was too weird. Even he couldn't tell what it was.
If it was a deified treasure, Han Sen couldn't feel any power coming from it. If it was an ordinary item, how could an ordinary item have the power to hold an entire ocean?
While Han Sen was deep in thought, Bao'er climbed onto a bronze goat head and stepped on it twice.
It was clear that Bao'er was a very vengeful person. She still remembered the mocking expression on the sheep's face every time it sank, so she wanted to step on the sheep's head to vent her anger.
But when she stepped on it, a crunching sound could be heard. The goat's head, which was originally raised, was lowered by Bao 'er's stomp. It lowered its head to eat the grass.
Bao'er was shocked, too. She thought that the Four Sheep Cube was so fragile that it would be destroyed by her.
Han Sen noticed that something was wrong with the Four Sheep Cube. When he looked over, he saw that one of the bronze sheep heads had been stomped down by Bao'er. The other three bronze sheep heads were still raised.
Han Sen suddenly felt as if something was wrong. He had tested it earlier, and it was very hard. He had used all of his strength, but he hadn't been able to leave a single mark on it. Bao'er couldn't have broken the sheep's head with just a few stomps.
"If this isn't a problem with Bao'er, then it must be …" Before Han Sen could finish his thought, he saw the two goldfish inside the cube. One was white, and the other was black. They started to swim quickly.
As the two goldfish swam, the clear water inside the cube started to spin. A whirlpool formed.
Han Sen realized that something was wrong. He grabbed Bao'er and wanted to teleport away from the Four Sheep Cube. But just as he picked up Bao'er, before he could teleport away, he felt an unstoppable suction force come from the cube. It sucked him and Bao'er into the cube, and they sank into the whirlpool.
The sixteen little pigs were sucked in, too. They followed Han Sen and Bao'er into the water.
Han Sen held onto Bao'er. He tried to break free, but he couldn't control himself. When he finally got control of his body and broke the surface of the water, he froze.
The Four Sheep Cube was right next to him. The two goldfish in the water had returned to their leisurely state. The whirlpool was no longer there. The sheep head that Bao 'er had stepped on had returned to its original state. Like the other three sheep heads, it raised its head slightly and lowered its eyes. It was as if nothing had happened.
The sixteen little pigs climbed out of the water. They leaned against the sides of the cube to shake off the water.
Nothing seemed to have changed, but everything had changed. Han Sen and the others were near Underworld Lake, but Underworld Lake was nowhere to be found. Underworld Lake was nowhere to be found. Han Sen didn't think he was in Outer Sky anymore.
Han Sen saw palaces everywhere. They were different from the palaces in Outer Sky. These palaces weren't built on mountains. They were built on water.
In the middle of an endless sea, there were many different palaces. They were like islands on the surface of the sea. This was not something that could be found in Outer Sky.
"What is this place?"
Han Sen looked around. Aside from the palaces, he couldn't see a single person.
The sea below was boundless, but it was different from ordinary seas. The sea here was not blue, but colorless and transparent like crystal. There were no waves, and the whole sea was so calm that it made people feel strange.
"Dad, that sun is so weird." Bao 'er pointed at the sun in the sky. She looked very curious.
Han Sen hadn't noticed the sun earlier. Now, he looked at where Bao 'er was pointing. He was shocked.
The sun was releasing light and heat. It was very weird. It wasn't a sun. It was more like a clock hanging in the sky.
On the sun, Han Sen could see a scale and a needle. There were three needles of different lengths and thicknesses. They were the second hand, the minute hand, and the hour hand.
There were no numbers on the scale, but the way they were arranged made it clear that they were the twelve hours of a clock.
"A palace on the sea. The sea is still. The sun is like a clock. What is this place?" Han Sen was very confused.
He was in an empty sea. The Four Sheep Cube was floating on the surface of the sea. It was as quiet as before. There was no movement or sound.
Two goldfish were swimming in the cube. They were playing with each other in the water.
Looking at the different palaces on the sea, Han Sen was thinking about what he should do next. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a bell.
Dong!
Dong!
Dong!
Dong!
The bell kept ringing. Han Sen raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky. The three needles on the sun were pointing at the top of the scale. If this was a normal clock, that would mean it was noon or midnight.
