Gu Mo looked at Luo Yu and asked, "Aren't we going to investigate further?"
"How can we investigate?" Luo Yu retorted. "That aura is so powerful; how could you possibly get close to it? Moreover, if Hell's Lord is truly inside, we can't just force our way in, can we? If we accidentally hurt Hell's Lord, how would we ever explain that to our Master?" Luo Yu glanced at the shimmering barrier. "Let's go up first and leave a mark here. We'll wait for Master to decide after we notify her. After all, just because we can't get close doesn't mean Master can't."
Hearing this logical reasoning, Gu Mo nodded. "Let's go!"
Luo Yu, holding the water-repellent pearl, and Gu Mo gathered their energy and propelled themselves upward from the seabed, directly towards the surface. Their ascent from the ocean floor to standing on the sea's surface took approximately half an incense stick's worth of time.
