Chapter 493: Chapter 107 Absolute Genius Apprentice_1

A silent sea island, quiet air, amidst the peak of winter yet blooming with mountain flowers, and vast stretches of green looming in the distance.

Stone statues lay toppled all around, with unique and massive fire-red coral reefs protruding from the verdant, tree-masked backdrop.

If it weren’t for grotesque-looking Gerein and Xu Dela accompanying him, Liu Zhenhan felt like he was walking in a landscape painting.

Liu had injured his leg when kicking the "metal cage," which caused him to limp a bit as he walked, making him look even more crippled. Liu once envied Huo Yuanjia’s one-armed old man and Tie Guaili from the "Eight Immortals" when he was watching TV. To his surprise, that dream quickly became a reality.

Seeing Overlord’s gaze lingering on the beautifully unique coral reefs, the Tide Lord Gerein hastily explained, "These were gathered from the seabed by Xu Dela and myself."

"Why would you move the coral reefs from the seabed here?" Ruona also couldn’t help looking around curiously.

"To add to the décor! The stone statues too, this island is our home, don’t we want it to look nice?" The Tide Lord smirked.

"Who’d expect that even you two ugly guys appreciate the beauty of home decoration?" Daisy incredulously stared at Gerein, the Tide Lord. The ruthlessly ugly lord indeed didn’t bear any resemblance to an appreciator of beauty at first glance.

"Do you think Gerein is suited only for devouring souls and voicing roars while standing on a pile of corpses, and we should be wrapped in dark black darkness using blood and skulls as embellishments?" The Tide Lord sneered in disdain. "Admiration for beauty is the same for any species, we are no exception. It doesn’t mean if someone is ugly, they must like ugly things. What kind of logic is that?"

Liu Zhenhan didn’t say anything, just stared at Gerein.

"When the Sea Clan initially offered the Yufrey butterfly people and Skade Cicada people people as tribute to us, Xu Dela and I didn’t devour them immediately. Notably because the butterfly people’s gardening skills were extraordinary. Every creature loves beauty. Xu Dela and I are no different. We love sunshine, we love the beautiful flowers, we despise gloominess and darkness, we loathe anything ugly." The Tide Lord scratched his neck with his claws. "Xu Dela and I might be a bit hard on the eyes, but we have inner beauty. "

This revelation made everyone laugh.

After trudging through a wetland full of rose bushes, a stone mountain about sixty blades high and one hundred and fifty blades long appeared before Liu Zhenhan. At the foot of the mountain lay a patch of carpet-like soft moss, with a silvery waterfall trickling down the mountain. The waterfall converged into a pond about four hundred squares wide, upon which floated water lilies and contracted pondweed, their pink and white flowers dotted among them.

A large withered willow tree stood at the edge of the pond. The tree, wide enough to require five people for a hug, had probably died several years ago. Its bark had turned a dark silver color from the weathering. This willow, devoid of leaves, was covered in stunning butterflies. Each butterfly was as big as a palm, fluttering their colorful wings under the warm sunlight, exhibiting unparalleled vibrancy. There seemed to be nothing more pleasing than this willow filled with butterflies.

But even such a beautiful landscape had an inconsistent element. The verdant grass by the pond was filled with several large, incredibly ugly grey-white worms.

The arrival of Liu Zhenhan, along with the sudden appearance of the Tide Lord and Xu Dela, sent these worms into a frenzy. On sighting the two abyssal powerhouses, some worms shook uncontrollably, some turned over, while many writhed clumsily, hustling towards the side of Stone Mountain.

There were many caves on Stone Mountain, both big and small, but all appeared shallow. Liu Zhenhan even saw huddled, small figures shivering in fear within several caves within his line of sight.

An ancient Totem Pillar made from wooden stakes and straw stood at the foot of the mountain, which Liu Zhenhan stared at for a long time. Where there was a totem pole, there were Beamon.

All of a sudden, the large worm in his bosom struggled fiercely. Liu woke up from his stupor on seeing the panic-ridden pasture, and immediately began to sing the "Spirit Communion Song" loudly. The Spirit Communion Song was known for its soothing effect and its role as a war song at ceremonies. Even if they couldn’t be blessed by the War Song Halo at the same time, every Beamon knew the story of the war song. Whenever Beamon blood ran through one’s vessels, there was a genetic inclination to trust and rely on the sacrificial priest.

That indescribably magical feeling calmed down the startled worms. One after the other, they raised their fat heads, their dark little eyes fixated on Liu. Their gaze was reminiscent of one observing delicious mulberry leaves.
