Survival for All: I can deconstruct projections and synthesize everything.

"What? You mean, you erased this shark from the very source of its destiny? In other words, this shark might not have existed from the moment it was born?"

Zhuge Duo nodded silently.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao gasped in astonishment: "Your current cultivation level allows you to use such powerful attack methods?"

"Well, it wasn't 100% successful."

"At my current second-tier rank, I have a success rate of over 90% against first-tier enemies and 100% against zero-tier creatures."

"If it's someone at the same level as me, the success rate is only 60% to 80%, but overall, the success rate is still over 50%."

"But if it's a third-tier being stronger than me, the success rate will drop sharply, maybe only ten percent."

"As for beings of the fourth rank and above..."

Zhuge Duo shrugged, indicating that she had already said before that she couldn't see the other person's fate line at all.

Lin Xiao clicked his tongue and asked, "Does using such an attack consume a lot of energy?"

Zhuge Duo shook her head: "No, as long as I succeed, there will be no cost, but failure will cause some backlash. But it's okay, the backlash can be eliminated by my destiny talent!"

After listening to Zhuge Duo's words, Lin Xiao also felt that Zhuge Duo's talent was a bit too abnormal.

Seeing this, Zhuge Duo smiled at Lin Xiao and said, "Never underestimate anyone with an SSS-level talent!"

"Even if he's only at level one, you should be prepared to lose a single hair!"

The shark we just saw was only a bit bigger; its actual combat strength was only at the first tier.

This was just a minor incident. Seeing that the others were all alright, Lin Xiao continued his journey underwater.

It's strange, but the deep sea is usually pitch black, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people with thalassophobia.

However, the underwater brightness in the Water Soul Domain was exactly the same as when Lin Xiao and his group first entered. No matter how deep they swam, Lin Xiao and his group could see their surroundings clearly with their eyesight.

However, although Lin Xiao and his group traveled a long way underwater, the creatures in the Water Soul Domain only saw the one they had just encountered.

"Strange, why do I feel like there are fewer creatures in this Water Soul Domain than in other Soul Domains?"

"Generally speaking, water, which is the source of life, should contain a great many kinds of creatures."

Lin Xiao stopped and looked around with a furrowed brow.

Looking at the empty underwater space and the bottomless water beneath their feet, the group felt a sudden pang of panic for some reason.

"Who are you?!"

Just as Lin Xiao and his companions were suddenly gripped by inexplicable panic, a clear, ethereal voice came from above.

Hearing the voice above them, Lin Xiao and the others looked up and saw three figures staring at them with tense expressions.

Each figure held a...bow and arrow?

Although puzzled about how to use a bow and arrow in the water, Lin Xiao quickly recovered and asked, "Who are you? And what is this area?"

Upon seeing the question posed in return, the three figures, resembling mermaids from mythology, secretly huddled together and whispered amongst themselves.

Lin Xiao vaguely heard them saying something like, "Are they?" and "Should we ask the Water Lord?"

A moment later, the three turned around, but instead of answering Lin Xiao's question, they said, "Please come with me, guests. I will take you to see Lord Water Lord. Lord Water Lord should be able to answer your questions."

After saying that, the three of them swam upwards without looking back, ignoring Lin Xiao and the others' calls.

Helpless, Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo had no choice but to follow. After all, to obtain the crystal stone, they would inevitably have to deal with the creatures in the Water Soul Domain.

If Lin Xiao's strength had not reached the fourth level, then he would never have been so bold.

Lin Xiao followed the three mermaids as they swam upwards until they saw the sand at the bottom of the water and realized that they had already turned themselves upside down.

Even Lin Xiao's fourth-level mental strength couldn't distinguish this reversal.

The group seemed to pass through an isolated barrier, and then, what came into Lin Xiao's view was a shocking scene.

Tens of thousands of marine creatures roamed freely within the barrier, creating a scene of harmony and peace.

The three mermaids waited not far away for Lin Xiao and the others to come to their senses.

Lin Xiao didn't keep them waiting. He quickly came to his senses and followed with Zhuge Duo and the others.

But what Lin Xiao didn't see was that Sheng's eyes actually held a hint of longing for such a scene.

Soon, the group arrived at an underwater palace. After leading them to the palace entrance, the three mermaids disappeared without a trace.

The palace gates slowly opened, as if waiting for Lin Xiao and his companions to enter.

Lin Xiao frowned, not noticing any danger nearby, and the Leaf of Judgment remained completely still.

However, Lin Xiao still took precautions before leading Zhuge Duo and the others through the gate.

"Squeak... Bang!"

After Lin Xiao and his group entered the gate, they had only taken five steps when the gate slammed shut behind them with a loud bang.

Lin Xiao even imagined that there might be 500 axemen lying in ambush inside, just waiting for an order to come out and kill them.

But all Lin Xiao could see was a single "person".

A...male mermaid!

The male mermaid slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Sheng and Qian blocking Lin Xiao's way, so he frowned.

Then, when he saw Zhuge Duo and Lin Xiao behind him, his pupils seemed to burst with boundless golden light.

Then, the male mermaid flicked his tail and floated in front of Lin Xiao and the others.

The male mermaid concealed his excitement and looked at Lin Xiao and the others, saying, "Welcome, outsiders, welcome to my Water Spirit Paradise!"

The male mermaid spread his hands and said proudly.

There was a moment of silence on the field. Lin Xiao looked at the male mermaid and really had no idea what he was doing.

"Ahem!"

Seeing that no one responded, the male mermaid coughed twice and spat out a few bubbles.

"It's alright, I was just a little too excited. Let me say it again!"

"Welcome, the latest batch of survivors!"

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Shui Ling, and I'm also the water owner of this Shui Ling Paradise!"

"And he was also one of the survivors who came before you!"

Lin Xiao and Zhuge Duo's pupils shrank simultaneously upon hearing this.
