Chapter 842 - Ancient Crocodile's Mighty Roar

Leon thought about the list of recovery medicine he could refine with Tier-5 Spirit Herbs and above before moving into action, harvesting all the spirit herbs and replanting them in his Worldspace.
More than one Tier-6 Divine Herb was found on the seafloor, but he left them for last.
'Tier-6 Divine Herbs are much more potent than Tier-5 Spirit Herbs, but they are also more delicate,' Leon mused.
He had no choice but to admit that the seafloor was a blessed land incomparable to the Sacred Garden in his Worldspace.
The abundant life energy nurtured many high-quality spirit herbs and even divine herbs, which, in turn, would produce plenty of spirit energy and further bless the seafloor in the region.
Just a moment ago, he had quickly collected a few thousand wisps of True Grandmist Energy, but the same applied to life energy and spirit energy.
Given the vibrant lifeforce and vitality provided by his ever-improving blood and viscera, Leon had no use for the few thousand wisps of life energy he acquired.
Thus, Leon unloaded his life energy reserve into the Sacred Garden to improve its soil's ability to nurture the spirit herbs.
As for the spirit energy, he fed it all to the Divine Book of Life itself, hoping it would help Maya, the artifact spirit, to recover her consciousness.
Alas, he received no response from Maya even after waiting for a while.
'Seems like this much spirit energy isn't enough, huh? Well, there's no rush… There's still plenty of life energy and spirit energy in this sea region…' Leon mused.
The Divine Book of Life was not only his father's memento but also a divine artifact among divine artifacts; he'd definitely prioritize its restoration over the realmship.
'If I can awaken Maya, she should be able to use True Grandmist Energy to repair the Divine Book of Life…'
'I wouldn't be lacking high-quality spirit herbs and divine herbs if I can restore the Divine Book of Life's full potential—or so I believe... Father didn't exactly hand me an instruction manual when he transferred the Divine Book of Life to me…'
Leon recalled his father with a self-deprecating and sad smile.
Nevertheless, he didn't dwell on his memories and continued to harvest the herbs on the seafloor, replanting them all in the Sacred Garden.
With the Tier-5 Spirit Herbs disappearing one by one, the seafloor started to lose its green brilliance and slowly darkened.
Even so, he had only collected a tiny fraction of the thousands of herbs found along the seafloor; one place darkened, but the other areas remain illuminated.
However, as he worked his way to the other areas, they also darkened.
Swish!
Leon immediately felt a large movement in the water before detecting the Peak Arch Demon-level Sea Monsters' agitated states.
It would be strange if the decrease in life and spirit energy didn't affect them.
Roar!
The mighty roar of a Peak Arch Demon-level Ancient Crocodile sent reverberating sound waves throughout the sea region like ripples.
Although the Ancient Crocodile didn't directly roar at Leon, he felt like he was struck by mountains over and over again, shaking up his internal organs.
Pfft!
Leon coughed up a mouthful of blood after being injured by the powerful sounds waves that shook his body and soul.
He bled from his nose, ears, and eyes.
His face paled with weakness, but it didn't take long before his blood quickly worked itself, allowing him to recover from his internal injuries.
Within moments, his complexion returned to normal.
However, his head continued to ring, and he couldn't hear anything else around him; the sound waves had deafened him.
Fortunately, it was a temporary effect.
After several minutes quickly passed, Leon regained his senses and health.
'As expected of a Peak Arch Demon-level Sea Monster… Even it was an indirect attack, it can still injure me to such a state…'
Leon wiped his lips with a thumb while gazing at the Peak Arch Demon-level Ancient Crocodile in the distance with lingering fear.
'Fortunately, I consolidated my viscera earlier. Otherwise, Ancient Crocodile's sound waves alone would have been enough to kill me…'
Paragon-level existences were not to be underestimated.
Shortly after, Leon furrowed his brows.
'If I want to continue harvesting the herbs, I have to deal with these powerful sea monsters. However, I am too weak to deal with them personally… and if I use the realmship's spatial power to remove them from the realmship, I won't be able to obtain their blood…' he mused.
Nevertheless, it's not like the herbs will run away if he leaves them for the time being; the Sacred Garden couldn't nurture the Tier-6 Divine Herbs with its present level either way.
'I've already collected a few hundred stalks of Tier-5 Spirit Herbs… I can collect the rest later when I am more capable… For now, I should focus on accumulating True Grandmist Energy and refine the rest of the Purple Coatl Dragon Blood…' Leon decided.
However, he can't do that with so many Peak Arch Demon-level Sea Monsters around, but he can still move to a different sea region to do so.
'Duna shouldn't be too far from here. I reckon that Ancient Crocodile's roar would have alerted her,' Leon thought.
After he used the realm spirit's omniscience to check on her location, he found it was indeed the case; the commotion had attracted Duna.
She was roughly a dozen miles away.
Nevertheless, his air supply was running out again, so he summoned the Nihility Barrier for a short instance to catch his breath and simultaneously collected hundreds of new energy wisps.
Shortly after, he kicked against the water and headed towards Duna's location.

Meanwhile, at roughly 5000ft depth, Arch Demons from the Starfall Dominion's Nine Great Clans were alerted by the sound wave that reached them from the depths of the Bone Sea.
"What did you guys think that sound was?" a female Black Jackal Arch Demon sought the other Arch Demons' opinion.
"The roar of an existence none of us can hope to defeat even if we combine our strengths," answered the one with the best underwater, a Three-Headed Serpent Arch Demon.
"It's that powerful, Lord Serpas? Can you guess how strong it is, exactly?"
