Chapter 887 - Oyster Quay

Why was Sage here?

After finally leaving behind that monster, he took some time to reference the map of the Depths and, after confirming his location, he was close to Oyster Quay and felt drawn to investigate. It was similar to learning where a coin minting facility or a gold refinery was and wanting to visit it. Sage was curious to see th...

Chapter 886 - Pearls

In his human form, Sage was sitting in front of a large sweeping table with an unusual shape. The top was flat yet it was not circular or rectangular in shape. It was instead a swirling oval shape and the underside was somewhat tear shaped, being wider on one side than the other. The surface showed off its true nature, giving off a pearlescent s...

Chapter 885 - Run

The wisp of Spirit Sense he’d sent behind him to investigate was torn to shreds almost instantly, so he had to give up on that line of examination. The need to know was trumped by the need to survive and he stopped dallying, activating the Jade Mantle and Cosmic Traction to push his speed to the limits. Only when he enacted this burst of speed...

Chapter 884 - Terror

In a dark room more than thirty faces were visible only because of the light reflecting off their hands and faces. They were all standing around a waist height cylindrical pedestal upon which was something that held all of their attention. This ‘thing’ was a projection emitted from the pedestal, a three dimensional formation of light that ha...

Chapter 883 - Speed

A shark of this size at tier six was nothing special. While Sage had admired these immense beasts in the past like the Genesis Spider and Pibei Wangu, the giant crocodile in a relationship with Baozhai, he later realized their bloodlines were low quality. Their bodies were just too low quality to contain all the power needed to reach the sixth t...

Chapter 882 - Rush

Carried out of the range of the shark in what seemed only an instant he laughed inwardly, reveling in the freedom that such speed brought. The oppressing sense of danger that always seemed to surround him in the Depths was dispelled. What was there to be afraid of when every threat could be left behind in just an instant? A sense of wariness rem...

Chapter 881 - Open Water

After his transformation, he shot through the water like a missile, putting his former speed to shame. This first form was very elongated, smooth and built to pass through the water with ease. It was also one he was quite familiar with from all the time he’d spent in the Great Pod. His intention for this first form was to maximize underwater s...

Chapter 880 - Master

The Master Seal completely altered Sage’s former methodology. He had altered his body many times in the past, trying to create the powerful end result without losing any of its versatility. There were so many special abilities and qualities that he’d run into over the years that he felt were important and so he’d have to keep trying to mak...

Chapter 879 - Release the Masterpiece

Sage had always thought that the Stone Tablet disrupted his Human Seal because it was protecting itself from other Seals. Now, he realized it was far more likely that the will stored inside it found the Human Seal to be insulting. Why would he think that? It was simply because Release the Masterpiece was a technique that put the Human Seal to sh...

Chapter 878 - Trained

The Adjutor’s weren’t without weaknesses. The most glaring of which was that they couldn’t have any other Linked Insect for combat purposes if they were linked to one. This wasn’t really wasn’t much of a detriment considering there were still other methods to tame insects to use them as minions. They simply couldn’t operate them with...

Chapter 877 - Essence Seal

It was far from an impossible technique, but it definitely required a lot of practice to master the method of holding so much information in total focus. For a moment Sage lamented that he wasn’t younger, as this sort of technique would probably be much easier to learn at a young age when the brain was very malleable. A Cultivator’s mind wou...

Chapter 876 - Test

The man held out an arm and turned his head away to indicate the column beside him. Sage was pretty sure the man looked away in order to make it more awkward to ask questions. There was no way to catch the man’s attention with eye contact, he’d have to speak up to ask directly. This didn’t bother Sage too much as things were already in lin...

Chapter 875 - Stone Tablet

Or at least that’s what they assumed.

For all they knew that youngster might have succeeded. Perhaps the kid was now the disciple of the Essence Sculptor and carried away to some other world far away from this one. There was no way to tell for sure. Of course, this idea was a long shot. During the year-long ‘trial’ an energy field su...

Chapter 874 - Preparation

Once Tao Ba had left the two of them dropped their subservient attitudes. Feiyan looked at the Stone Tablet with the sharp and inquisitive eyes of a researcher. She was the head researcher and had been for centuries before she was chosen to carry out his backup plan. Her hunger to explain the unexplainable was quite great, but it was also temper...

Chapter 873 - Possibilities

Sage was sitting across a table from a pot-bellied boy with white hair. He was currently serving the boy tea and a sumptuous meal. Sage appeared extremely happy to serve the boy, pouring the tea with his own hands and hopping up out of his seat constantly to help bring the dishes out of the kitchen and moving them closer to the boy’s plate. Th...

Chapter 872 - Computing

The success of the bio-computer pushed him and the researchers into a whole new area of development. The funny thing was that the computing power itself wasn’t even the reason for this change. They had merely gained so much experience with creating insects to fulfill specific purposes that they continued to create new innovations in this area....

Chapter 871 - Biological

Most of the parts of the biological computer came together with a bit of brainstorming. For data storage, they created a species of small ant-like bug that reserved a large portion of its mind for storage that it couldn’t really access. With so much of its memory ‘reserved’ it was very simple and had to be fed by other bugs. Sage couldn’...

Chapter 870 - Projects

The second of his research projects was first intended as part of the first as it was related to the small ants he was using to do Arborist work. Rather than requiring the close care of an Arborist over long periods of time to shape plants with Array Symbols as they grew, small ants were used to do the same thing. Each ant was far from being sma...

Chapter 869 - Golden Song

Regardless of the reason, Sage settled down in the Great Pod for a decade. He’d already come to terms with a long stay away from his family before he left the Lang Clan. In fact he was already very used to being apart from them long ago because of the time dilation on the Inner World. The time he’d been away from his wives and children was a...

Chapter 868 - Songs

The two of them locked eyes for a long time before either of them said anything. Then the Orca slowly circled around Sage and stopped in front of him, “There’s still something unusual about you, but I can’t pinpoint what it is. You were far too calm in front of the Killer Crew, and you said something weird. Do you have the guts to say it a...

Chapter 867 - The Great Pod

The inn proved to be very useful. The next day, Sage got a chance to speak to some of the human’s who had lived in the Great Pod for some time. They were able to tell him about a lot of details that the Whale Sword Sect members wouldn’t care about. Not because they were hiding information, but because they weren’t humans there were many co...

Chapter 866 - Ice Whale

The forbidding cold and white ice of the arctic sea was gone and instead this place was brilliantly green and blue. He tread water with his head poking out of the water and saw ice carved into buildings around the outer edge of this gigantic chamber. There was a narrow walkway around the edge of the huge ‘pool’ he was in and he immediately r...

Chapter 865 - Black Fish

Upon hearing Sage’s sudden offer, the leader of the Orcas was speechless. After a long pause the one that had been reprimanding the ‘scrap catcher’ not to question the captain was the one that spoke up, “You dare to speak to the Captain like that! C’mon boys, let’s rip him apart!”

Since the most loyal and reasonable of the Or...

Chapter 864 - Surrounded

With the double sized male Lion Seal bearing down upon him, Sage retracted the two blades on his forearms, recovering their energy back into that of the Jade Mantle surrounding him like armor. He lifted his arm up to his side and pulled it back so his fist was beside his cheek. Then his fist opened and his fingers stretched outwards before curli...

Chapter 863 - Lion Seal

As soon as the double sized seal with the lion’s mane turned towards him, the others that he presumed were the females of the species started to move towards him. They didn’t follow a direct path and it took only a moment for him to identify that they were surrounding him. He had a few moments where he could have easily escaped their encircl...

Chapter 862 - Gelid Blue

The Gelid Blue got its name from the thick viscous nature of the water. There was something unusual about it, as it could stay at a temperature far below zero yet still remain in a liquid state. It was said to carry a sort of cold energy that made it a valuable resource which was harvested by the owners of the city. It was a very low tier materi...

Chapter 861 - Cardinal

Dark Reach was far too gloomy for Sage’s taste and he did not enjoy associating with the fish-people there. The few he’d met with were likely bad examples of their race, but when combined with the eternal realm of darkness he didn’t want to spend any more time there. He left Dark Reach, traveling through a Transportation Formation towards ...

Chapter 860 - Payment

Sage walked out of the arena and entered a world of glimmering darkness. The smaller buildings were made of stacked stones while the larger ones were formed of giant bones with leathery fish hides stretched over them. The streets were coated in darkness and only lit by bioluminescent snails that clung to the doorframes of every building and in n...

Chapter 859 - Good Chap

After passing over the objects he retrieved from the back of the giant crab, Sage waited patiently for Sir Thele to fulfill his end of the bargain. Finally, the fish man smiled and waved to one of the others that was still seated, “Get the merchandise sent over to…”

Sir Thele looked back to Sage, “Where did you say you were staying...

Chapter 858 - Revealed

With the sudden flood of light, the surroundings were revealed. In the distance, thousands of tightly packed things were moving up and down. These ‘things’ were split between elated and devastated, throwing their arms up in victory or shaking them angrily because of their defeat. At this same time even more lights came to life, illuminating ...
