mermaid lady's expression turned serious
as she stood all right let us see the
wind spirit Stone and your abilities yes
chingching solemnly retrieved the wind
spirit Stone summoning a swirling gust
of azure wind that flowed into the stone
the winds erupted around them yet unlike
before the Tempest no longer
discriminated between friend and foe
they were now at the eye of the storm
within a sole safe Zone the Raging winds
cascaded outward forcefully dispersing
the foam upon the surface of the sea
were a third party to observe they would
Behold a breathtaking spectacle the
small boat became the eye of the storm
as powerful gusts were systematically
pushed outwards sending the foam soaring
into the air either dissipating into
nothingness or drifting further a field
however the Abyssal sea was simply too
vast the foam did not disperse easily
the wind generated by Ching Ching's
manipulation of the wind spirit Stone
weaken the farther it reached and to
clear all the foam would likely require
considerable time the mermaid lady dove
into the water propelling the small boat
deeper into the Abyssal sea chingching
acted as a mobile disperser driving away
the foam from the water surface yet her
exertion of the wind spirit Stone
required spiritual energy necessitating
rest after every quarter of an hour of
use after three rounds her spiritual
energy was nearly depleted even
consuming energy potions to regain it
left her with a throbbing headache
making it difficult to control the winds
accurately she lay languidly in the
boat's cabin as gonon placed a cushion
beneath her the mermaid lady squinted at
the sky you may need to accompany me for
a while longer guon tion hesitated
within this instance she was a bug in
the system according to shaon even if
she did not actively seek a way out the
system might still eject her from the
instance if she vanished abruptly what
would become of Ching Chung that timid
girl would surely be frightened noticing
her hesitation the mermaid lady turned
her head her expression tinged with
displeasure are you unwilling seeing the
look on her face gu onion could only
sigh I am willing though she could not
articulate her reasons she resolved to
comply following the established pattern
all she needed to do was remain steady
by chingching side the sea monster
Essence stored within her inventory
would remain untouched for the time
being the mermaid lady nodded in
satisfaction producing a water avoidance
Pearl and handing it to guonan you and
Ching Chung should jump and I will take
you back I must return to the sacred
Land by Nightfall traveling underwater
with her would be far swifter than by
boat time was of the essence and this
was the only method to return to the
sacred land understood duon replied
administering the water avoidance Pearl
to Ching Ching instructing her ching
ching Stow the boat away all right
chingching responded weakly gu tontion
was aware that within the Abyssal sea
they could not utilize the system
fearing unforeseen complications so she
had made ample preparations before
entering the Abyssal sea she had filled
both of her storage spaces to the brim
even stocking Ching Ching's inventory
with supplies for daily living and
combat Readiness however chingching
space was vast even if their coins were
depleted it would not be filled thus
providing ample room for the boat they
could not afford to abandon their sole
means of returning jonon embraced the
weary ching ching and leaped from the
boat while ching ching swiftly stored
the vessel in her inventory as they
plunged into the water they were
immediately enveloped by the bubbles
conjured by the mermaid lady the mermaid
guided them through the bubbles toward
the sacred land guo tontion supported
chingching as they stood within the
bubble once accustomed she could soon
