“Let me be surrounded by water all the time? How?” Xiaobai’s eyes lit up when he heard him say that, and he said with some anticipation.
“You should change back into human form first.” Neptune did not explain directly, but asked her to change from her original form of a great shark to that of a human.
“All right.”
Xiaobai did not refuse. With a flash of blue light, she turned into that exotic beauty again. Then she walked slowly to his side with her long legs.
Neptune gazed into her expectant eyes and stretched out his palm. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered around him and finally turned into a water-blue bead.
“Eat it.” He didn’t explain much.
Xiaobai blinked his beautiful eyes. He didn’t think that he would harm himself. He was just a little confused about the function of the bead.
She reached out and took the bead from his palm. She could feel the abundant water spirit energy in the bead!
Without hesitation, she put it directly into her pink little mouth. In an instant, a abundant water spirit energy filled her whole body!
Xiao Bai couldn’t help but close her eyes. At this moment, she felt as if she had returned to the sea and was now swimming freely in the ocean.
Opening her eyes, she looked at him puzzledly and asked, “What is this? Why do I feel that the feeling of slowly weakening is gone?”
“It’s just a highly concentrated compressed bead of water spirit energy.” Neptune did not hide anything and said directly: “Your transformation is different from that of ordinary soul beasts. They completely transform into human bodies, while you only obtain human form temporarily. Therefore, you are essentially aquatic animals and cannot live without water. After you come ashore, the water in your body is constantly evaporating to the outside world. That’s why you feel weaker and weaker. Isn’t it the same as a fish leaving the water?”
“And the Water Spirit Pearl I just gave you was made from the pure water spirit energy I condensed. After you take it, the Water Spirit Pearl will slowly release the water spirit energy in your body, replenishing the water you evaporated on the shore and achieving a state of balance."
After listening to his explanation, Xiao Bai said happily: “That means I can stay on the shore as long as I want in the future?”
“Of course not.”
Neptune shook his head and said, “The water spirit bead you swallowed is just a bead condensed from a large amount of water spirit energy. The water spirit energy contained in it is limited. It is impossible to support you to move freely on the shore forever. I estimated that this bead can only support you to live on land for more than half a month.”
“Ah, it’s only over half a month…”
Xiao Bai immediately showed a look of disappointment, she thought she would no longer have the weakness of going ashore and could move freely on the shore. But she was unexpectedly happy for nothing.
“Just be content. Half a month is not short.”
Neptune looked at her lost expression and comforted her, “Besides, even if the water spirit beads are used up, I can always condense water spirit beads to replenish them for you. When I become the god of the sea in the future, perhaps I will be able to condense the kind of water spirit beads that can automatically absorb external energy and infinitely transform it into water spirit energy. Then you can stay on the shore as long as you want.”
“Really! Then you must become a god quickly.” Xiaobai immediately put aside his frustration when he heard that, and said with anticipation.
As a 100,000-year-old soul beast, Xiaobai spent almost her entire life in the sea. She only changed into a human form and went ashore a few times. But that didn’t mean she liked the sea. No matter how beautiful something was, she would have gotten tired of it after seeing it for so many years.
Naturally, she had longed for the mysterious land. Unfortunately, after landing, she was losing water and felt weak. In addition, the time she could stay on the shore was too short, so she rarely went ashore in human form.
Now that Xiaobai has the opportunity to stay on shore for a long time, she is naturally delighted. After all, this is like arriving in a new world for her.
“I would like to do it faster. But unfortunately, this kind of thing can’t be done quickly just because I want it to be.” Neptune spread his hands and said helplessly. He wanted to inherit the throne directly, but the god of the sea didn’t agree.
“Oh, that’s right. We have to find the Heart of the Sea God to complete the eighth test.” Xiaobai nodded suddenly, then took his hand and walked towards a populated area in the distance.
“Let’s go! Let’s go and find the Heart of the Sea God!”
She seemed to be more positive than him, the tester.
Neptune was a little amused. He didn’t expect that Xiaobai, who was always mature and steady, would be so excited just because he wanted to stay on the shore for a long time. He could only say that he was really depressed over the years.
Forget it, I have a beautiful woman by my side.
His land journey would not seem so monotonous and boring.
…
Neptune and Xiaobai entered the human city together, and surprisingly, they did not cause much sensation. Humans are forgetful animals, and whether it is gratitude or hatred, it will slowly fade away with the passage of time.
Moreover, the information exposed in the Q&A video in the sky is irrelevant to most ordinary people. Therefore, it won’t take too long for people to slowly forget the image of Neptune. After all, everyone is very busy and has their own things to do. How can they have the time to think about other things?
Of course, it is impossible to completely forget. People will just forget the things related to him as unimportant things in the depths of their minds. When a flash of inspiration comes, they will suddenly remember it.
So along the way, Neptune and Xiaobai were just like ordinary people, and did not cause any sensation or star treatment. Very few people could recognize him as the protagonist in the previous video. Most people were amazed by Xiaobai’s appearance and ignored Neptune.
This made Neptune, who was initially thinking about whether to change his appearance, feel a little amused. He always felt that he had overestimated his popularity.
Although the purpose of the two coming to the mainland was to retrieve the Heart of the Sea God, it was a rare opportunity. The two did not rush to the Tiandou Empire to find the royal family to retrieve the Heart of the Sea God. Instead, they treated this trip as a tour and walked slowly to their destination in a way that was like sightseeing.
Of course, it was basically Xiao Bai who was enjoying the scenery on the road, and Neptune was just accompanying him throughout the whole process. After all, although he was set as a sea spirit master, he was actually a land spirit master born and raised. Naturally, he would not think that these things that he could see every day were anything new.
However, in order to maintain the character’s setting, Neptune pretended to be interested in the land’s humanities and beautiful scenery, even though he didn’t care. He ate, drank and had fun with Xiaobai along the way.
