Chapter 1048 Several Mermaid Cubs Hatch In
The dozen or so mermaid eggs surrounding the dragon egg originally resembled loyal guards, their shells crystal clear and gleaming with a soft luster like pearls.
As the spiritual energy from the five dragons' hatching spread, the mermaid eggs stirred simultaneously. The patterns on the eggshells flowed like ripples on water, and accompanied by a soft chanting, the eggshells shattered, and more than a dozen mermaid cubs hatched.
These mermaid cubs have graceful figures, with upper bodies resembling humans, and skin as white as snow, as delicate as silk, and shimmering with a pearly luster.
The lower half is a fish tail covered with scales in a variety of colors, including azure, silver, light pink, and jet black. Each fish tail is like a meticulously crafted work of art, and when it sways gently, it is like a fairy dancing gracefully, moving lightly through the seawater.
Their faces are incredibly beautiful, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, and clear, pure eyes that seem to contain the gentleness of the entire deep sea.
Its hair is as soft as silk, and its color complements the scales on its tail. It floats in the seawater, as graceful as seaweed.
The tips of their ears are pointed and shimmer with a faint luster, like the antennae of an elf, able to keenly capture every sound in the seawater.
Merfolk have unique talents, but they are all closely linked to the two core elements of "water" and "sound".
Among them, five mermaid cubs are exceptionally gifted, possessing "heavenly voices." Their songs are like heavenly music, possessing magical power that can soothe the soul, heal wounds, and even influence the emotions of others, making enemies infatuated, confused, or calm.
The four mermaid cubs are exceptionally talented, possessing the "art of water control." They can manipulate the seawater around them at will, forming water arrows, water shields, water whirlpools, and so on, as if they were their own arms, for both attack and defense.
The three mermaid cubs have a unique talent: they are skilled in 'pearl condensation'. They can condense the spiritual power in their bodies into pearls containing spiritual energy. These pearls are like rare treasures. They are not only precious treasures, but can also be used for cultivation, healing, and even as a medium for formations.
Two merfolk cubs possess extraordinary talent, with the ability to "see the deep sea." Their eyes are like the deep ocean, able to penetrate the fog of the deep sea and perceive enemies and treasures hidden in the darkness, and even sense the goodwill and malice of others.
As the merfolk cubs adapted to their new forms, soft blue soul light descended from the void and merged into their consciousness—an ancient, inherited memory of the merfolk race.
The heritage records the history of the Merfolk—one of the oldest races in the deep sea, renowned for their beautiful songs and superb water manipulation skills.
In ancient times, the songs of the Merfolk were the "healing sounds" on the battlefields of the sea tribes, comforting countless wounded sea warriors, while water control techniques played an important role in protecting their underwater home.
The inheritance also includes cultivation methods based on each person's unique talents:
Those who inherit the "Heavenly Voice" receive the rare and mysterious "Heavenly Heart Sutra," which serves as a guiding light, showing them how to perfectly blend spiritual power with their singing, making their voices sound like heavenly music and possessing even greater healing, soothing, and bewitching power.
From basic vocal healing to advanced "sound-killing" techniques, from bewitching the masses to helping calm the mind and focus the spirit...
Every aspect of it exudes a magical charm. The high-frequency singing is like a sharp sword, capable of easily shattering the enemy's internal organs; the melodious and beautiful singing always evokes the most wonderful memories in people's hearts, making them feel as if they are invisible...
Those who mastered the "Water Control Technique" received the peerless secret manual "Azure Water Technique," which taught them how to precisely control the seawater as if it were their own arm.
From simple water arrows to complex water formations, they can even transform seawater into rock-solid ice armor or incredibly sharp water blades.
As for the inheritors of "Pearl Condensation", they received the rare treasure "Pearl Condensation Manual", which guided them on how to purify the spiritual power in their bodies and condense pearls of superior quality and rich spiritual energy. They could even condense "spiritual pearls" with special abilities, such as "water-repelling pearls" and "sea-suppressing pearls". These spiritual pearls were like rare treasures, coveted by many.
Finally, the inheritors of "Deep Sea Insight" received the magical book "The True Scripture of Insight," which helped them enhance the insight of their eyes, enabling them to see through the fog of the deep sea, perceive the weaknesses of their enemies, and even briefly foresee future dangers, just like prophets.
Furthermore, the heritage also records the mission of the Merfolk – as “guardians and communicators” of the deep sea, they soothe the creatures of the seabed with their heavenly songs, maintain the ecological balance of the seabed with their exquisite water control techniques, nourish the spiritual energy of the seabed with their dazzling pearls, and warn of impending danger with their keen insight, thus protecting the peace and tranquility of the sea people.
After receiving the inheritance, a gifted merman cub gently began to sing the ancient and mysterious merman song. The song was like a clear spring, flowing throughout the entire incubation temple, bringing a sense of peace to all the cubs present. The surrounding ocean currents also seemed to be infected by the song, becoming more gentle and soothing.
Just then, the seawater suddenly began to surge violently, and black whirlpools appeared out of nowhere. A huge sea monster emerged from the whirlpools, its body radiating an evil aura. Its blood-red eyes stared at the newly hatched merfolk cubs, and it opened its blood-red maw to pounce.
The four mermaid cubs, who possessed the "Water Control Technique," reacted quickly and immediately used the "Azure Water Technique" to manipulate the seawater into forming walls of water, temporarily keeping the sea monster out.
Meanwhile, the five mermaid cubs, possessing 'heavenly voices,' began to sing a stirring battle song, their voices transforming into sound waves that impacted the sea monster's body.
The three mermaid cubs, skilled in 'pearl condensation,' condensed spiritual pearls and shot them at the sea monster. Each spiritual pearl contained powerful spiritual energy.
Two mermaid cubs with the ability to "see the deep sea" peer through the deep-sea mist to discern the weaknesses of sea monsters and guide their companions in the direction of attack.
With their combined efforts, the sea monster gradually became exhausted, let out a miserable cry, and disappeared into the whirlpool.
After this battle, the merfolk cubs understood their mission even more clearly. They will carry on the legacy of the merfolk and protect this deep sea.
Just as Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng were about to set off, they discovered that Wuzhiqi's three monkeys and the golden dragon had already followed closely behind.
The two exchanged a glance, then calmly decided to stay and watch over the little ones. They absolutely couldn't fall for a diversionary tactic—neither the five dragons nor the dozen or so merfolk had truly grown up yet; they were incredibly fragile!
